Chapter 450
Gulun was about to withdraw his troops to retaliate against Bass, when a patrol team rode back desperately.
The horses fell when the people arrived, showing how anxious they were.
"Chief, it's bad. A barbarian cavalry appeared, with a number of about three million people, and the flag they were flying was the Balit tribe."
The battle with Wei Qing was over, and the rest was handed over to Yang Zaixing. Wei Qing was anxious to come back to help Huo Qubing expand the results of the battle.
So, the Balit barbarian cavalry that went out to fight withdrew from Liang State.
"What? Balit's cavalry is not in the city? Which direction did they appear from?"
Gulun regretted it very much. If Balit's main force was not in the city, he would have missed the best time to attack the city.
These days of hesitation and probing were simply a joke.
"Report to the chief, the Balit cavalry appeared from the direction of Liang State."
Appearing from the direction of Liang State, they can directly insert into Gulun's retreat route and directly cut off the evacuation of Gulun's tribe.
Bass was wreaking havoc in his hometown, and the way back to the army was cut off. Now that they wanted to attack the city again, it was obviously the wrong time, and the Barlett cavalry would not give them this opportunity.
One step wrong, every step wrong, Gulun was a little at a loss.
"Chief, the Barlett cavalry appeared from Liang State, so they either invaded Liang State and took the opportunity to pick up the bargain, or they cooperated with Xia State."
"The city in front of us, and the materials in the city, should be provided by Xia State."
Some slightly smarter barbarian generals have already understood.
With the productivity of the barbarians, it is impossible to build such a large city, which is not in line with their living habits.
But if foreigners intervene, things will not be as difficult as imagined, after all, doing these things is what foreigners are good at.
"What's the point of saying this now?"
Gulun didn't want to explore the reason at all, he just wanted to know how to leave smoothly.
"Chief, retreat immediately before our way is completely blocked. Maybe we can retreat before the Balite cavalry blocks our way."
Time is pressing. If we delay here, the retreat will be blocked and the logistics will be cut off. That means there will be no way out.
"Yes, order the army to retreat immediately."
They are all cavalry, so they move quickly and there is nothing to prepare. The barbarian cavalry are almost all on horses.
Shortly after the order was issued, the Gulun cavalry set out and left the Balite tribe.
"Order the defenders of each city to leave the city immediately and prepare to pursue."
Gulun ran away, and Ran Min naturally would not agree. He wanted to cooperate with Wei Qing to keep as many Gulun cavalry as possible.
The closed gates of more than a dozen large cities opened, and countless barbarian cavalry swarmed out.
These cavalry only brought weapons and bows and arrows, and no other supplies.
This battle is basically a fight to the death, and there is no need to prepare too much.
On the grassland, from a God's perspective, it can be clearly seen that several cavalry units are rushing along at a fast speed.
The Gulun tribe in the distance has been caught in the flames of war at this moment. Although the Gulun cavalry is fighting desperately, the gap in strength is very obvious.
Even if the Bass cavalry has not yet been transformed into the Zhenbei Army, the Gulun cavalry is not an opponent.
However, the Gulun cavalry fought tenaciously, and both sides suffered heavy losses.
A huge plain is also the only way for Gulun to withdraw.
"Chief, the vanguard of the Barit cavalry has arrived and is waiting for us in front."
Both sides are racing against time, and Wei Qing's vanguard has arrived at the designated location.
"How long will it take for the follow-up main cavalry of Barit to arrive?"
Gulun asked anxiously.
"At the latest half an hour."
Time is too tight.
"Order the army to charge at all costs. A gap must be opened. Everyone fights on their own and retreats towards the tribe."
Gulun no longer cares about organizing the army, and there is no need for any formation. Everyone rushes in a swarm. Anyway, they can find their home, so they just rush directly.
In the distance, the Balit cavalry is ready, and all the soldiers are ready with bows and crossbows.
After the appearance of the Gulun cavalry, they immediately shoot without spending any money, one round, one round, and another round.
This kind of rich battle is not what the Gulun cavalry can think of.
This is definitely not the time to consider these things. Everyone has no mind to think about other things, just charge desperately.
Under this momentum, although the Balit cavalry is elite enough, it is difficult to resist, after all, the difference in numbers is too large.
Sure enough, under the leadership of Gulun, the Gulun cavalry broke through the blockade and rushed to the tribe.
At this critical juncture, Wei Qing led the main cavalry to arrive.
Several rounds of horse shooting blocked the charge of the Gulun cavalry.
The cavalry, without sufficient distance to launch a charge, would greatly reduce the threat.
Taking advantage of this short period of time, Wei Qing led the Balite cavalry to block the gap again and began to send troops to encircle it.
At the same time, Ran Min, who followed, also caught up. The two sides worked together, with the advantage of four million cavalry, to trap more than 200 outsiders of the Gulun tribe on a huge grassland.
At this time, Gulun didn't know that the follow-up cavalry had not caught up, and he was still desperate.
A day later, the Gulun cavalry was so tired that they had to stop to rest.
"Come on, tell all the troops to rest for two hours and continue on the road."
Gulun was worried about the situation in his hometown and didn't want to stay outside for too long.
"Chief, it's not good."
A man who looked like a general ran over.
"What's wrong?"
Gulun asked.
Now that he has broken through the encirclement of Barit, Gulun can't think of any crisis for the time being.
"Chief, I just contacted the rear army and found that the rear army didn't follow."
"I have asked someone to check, I'm afraid they..."
It turned out that the general wanted to count the situation of each army and sent someone to contact, but found that the rear army couldn't contact at all.
People were sent to check, but there was no movement from behind, and it was obvious that there was no army following.
The vast grassland, with millions of cavalry running, how spectacular the scene was can be imagined.
But now there is no movement from behind, what does it mean, the general knows very well.
"You mean, the rear army didn't run out?"
Gulun realized it too late, and was busy running, not supporting the rear army in time, and didn't even know that the rear army was stopped and surrounded.
It can also be seen from this that Gulun's ability is still a little worse than Bass.
Puff... Gulun spit out a mouthful of old blood, staggered, and almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, the people around him were sharp-eyed and didn't let Gulun fall, otherwise it would have a great impact on morale.
"Go and check, how many people do we have now?"
Gulun was confused, what should he do now?
There are three million Bass troops in his hometown ahead, even if he still has more than two million defenders, it is difficult to turn the situation around.
Later, the Barlett cavalry returned, and millions of people chased them. Most of the cavalry were lost. How could this battle continue?
