When the army in front retreated, they suddenly heard a violent noise from Xicheng, and their hearts palpitated, they were now too close to Joel City, for fear that the other party would take advantage of the situation to chase them out and become more and more defeated. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Xhosa and Batu guarded the central army, constantly collecting these routs, and then joined forces with Grover, who came forward to meet them, and led the team to slowly retreat.

Xhosa looked at his embarrassed subordinates, and felt a pang of shame in his heart, not only did he fail to hurt the other party in this battle, but also lost 3 generals and tens of thousands of soldiers in vain. This has never happened before in the history of the Cente people. Even in the face of the Wikipedians who were in full swing back then, they never tasted such defeat.

It's a shame that can't be washed away!

Xhosa rode on his horse, his face was cloudy, and he did not say a word for a long time, and all the generals around him felt his mood at this time, and did not come to disturb him.

However, after only a few miles of marching, I saw the flames in front of me, and another group of routed troops scattered in all directions.

With a trembling heart, Xhosa hurriedly stopped the deserters and asked loudly, "What is happening ahead?" What about General Kun? ”

"Yes, it was the Sumers who attacked us!" One of the soldiers ran out of breath and replied loudly: "General Kun is dead!" ”

"Damn it!" Xhosa frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Is it Sumer?" How many people are on the other side? ”

"Ah, this, probably thousands." The soldier was stared at by him, and his expression became a little unnatural.

"Fleeing from the battlefield and lying about the military situation should be punished!" Seeing the soldier's expression flickering, Xhosa roared angrily, and the long-handled axe in his hand suddenly rose up, and actually split the other party in half.

"Batu went with me to help, and Grover put his army behind." After that, without looking at the stunned soldiers, as soon as he pulled the reins, he rushed forward with 2,000 cavalry......

When I came to the camp, I saw a blazing fire, black smoke, and a large number of corpses lying in the open space, including Kun's headless corpse. The cart carrying grain and grass was burning brightly, making a crackling sound, and a few wisps of light smoke were rising from time to time, and the horses pulling the cart had already broken free from the reins and ran away. Several collapsed tents were blackened with smoke, and the flames of the fire could be seen on them.

It's just that there is no figure of half of the Sumers.

A bunch of bastards!! Xhosa was so angry that he yelled.

He knew that the other party must not have gone far, and might have hid in the dense forest around him. But the Sumei tribe has been suppressed by all the tribes for many years, and it has never been extinct, and its strength is self-evident, even if there are only a few hundred people at the moment, it will not be able to be wiped out in a while and a half. If you take the liberty of leading people to attack, it is easy to be entangled by them and fall into a bitter battle, and then the troops in Joel City will cover up from behind, and the tens of thousands of people under your command will be in danger.

In the clan, although he is not a famous general, he can be regarded as a good fighter, but in this battle, he is always led by the nose, and in just a short time, he actually has a feeling of physical and mental exhaustion.

But Xhosa knew that the morale of the troops was low now, and as the commander-in-chief, he must be in chaos.

The opponent's attack is strange and changeable, and the power is huge, this time burning the grain and grass is nothing more than forcing himself to retreat, and the intention is very obvious. Until you find a suitable way to deal with it, it will not help to be brave and courageous. Since the other party is like this, it is better to withdraw the army temporarily, even if he is punished by Lord Gusta for this, it is better than losing his life in a daze.

Thinking of this, he called Batu, Grover and the others, and ordered: "Quickly form a team and prepare to retreat." ”

Batu and Grover glanced at each other, and their hearts were relieved, in the current situation, they naturally wanted to leave this ghost place as soon as possible.

The two bowed down and took the order, quickly assembled the team, and returned the same way with the dejected soldiers.

Yeren Bai was in the woods, silently watching the Cente slowly retreat, with a sneer on his face:

The battle has just begun, do you want to leave?

He summoned two soldiers and told them to return to the city to report on the fighting, and then followed them with the Sumers and the soldiers of the Destroyer Battalion......

When Sang Nan heard the news of Yerenbai's return in the city, he smiled indifferently, and he immediately ordered Abida, Morisan and others to return to the tribe to integrate the troops to the south, and at the same time collect war horses.

He also ordered Alan and Marbury to lead 20,000 Nemos to take over the surrounding cities and ports.

To strengthen the deterrent, he also left Allen with 2,000 mine-throwers and 500 crossbowmen from the Destroyer Battalion. Then he took all the soldiers of Spindle Valley out of the city and went south......

Thirty miles away from Joor, a 100,000-strong army of cents was slowly moving north along the river.

In the center of the procession, hundreds of brightly armored cavalrymen surrounded a burly man in armor with a face like a rock. The strong man rode on a tall horse, his eagle eyes looked around, and he was imposing, and two huge iron hammers hung on the saddle bridge.

It was none other than Gusta's manager.

The base camp of the Cents was located on the edge of the Norman Great Forest, a vast primeval forest that covered the sky and the sky, just over 300 miles from the city of Joor, so Gusta soon received news from Xhosa.

Gusta knew his lieutenant very well, knew that he was calm and accurate, and when he heard about the fact that Goyechea's entire army was destroyed, he did not dare to take it lightly, so he immediately mobilized men and supplies and personally led a large army to come.

It's just that he doesn't quite understand how powerful the kind of device Xhosa described can be.

In order to carry the heavy armor, they were specially equipped with a kind of ox cart, each of which was pulled by 4 brute oxen, and a whole 10 large carts, loaded with 5,000 heavy armor. Although the speed was slow, there was no need to worry about the power, but it was a day later than the original arrival time.

According to Gusta, this should not be a problem for Xhosa.

The team marched to the front and came to a field of lush vegetation where a kind of alfalfa bean, the favorite food of war horses, grew.

Gusta looked at the sky and decided to rest here for a while, and by the way, let the horses and cattle have a full meal before continuing on the road.

He gave the order for the army to stop, then jumped off his horse and walked towards the river. The horses chirped merrily, and trotted towards the alfalfa beans, and the brute bulls were untied, shaking their heads, and looking leisurely, eating grass.

The soldiers took bags, bamboo tubes, bowls and other items and went to the river to fetch water. Gusta also stood by the river, and washed it briefly with the water brought by the guards. The breeze is breezy and refreshing.

The river flows quietly and emits a melodious melody. This is the second largest river in Tigris, a tributary of the Tianjing River, the river surface is only more than 10 meters wide, the river water is clear, the water is full of lovely shape of aquatic plants, slowly floating, some small fish in the aquatic plants back and forth to swim, very flexible.

The whole body was relaxed, and Gusta, who was observing the small fish, suddenly looked abrupt, and saw a girl in white appear in the reflection of the water surface. (To be continued.) )
