Chapter 298: Natulu retreats

The battle on Qingyang's side didn't last long and ended quickly.

In comparison, Silan and Keree's side is really a vicious battle, after all, the strength of the grassland cavalry is basically pressed on this side.

Similarly, eighty percent of the cavalry on the Great Xia side gathered here.

All of a sudden, on this steppe, there was a momentum of a decisive battle between the cavalry units of Great Xia and the Molkhanate in battle.

Under the long-range cover of the Kree Archers, Slan led his light cavalry troops to charge all the way to the opposite Natulu's main formation.

The purpose is obvious.

According to their state after running for days, it is not good for them to fight a protracted war, and if they want to solve the battle in a short time, they can only take the enemy's head as an option.

Silan charged strongly, even in a state of exhaustion, his strength was by no means comparable to that of ordinary soldiers.

Rushing left and right all the way, there is no one to stop.

And Natulu undoubtedly saw his intentions clearly, knowing that he had been targeted by Silan and Keree, and the pressure in his heart also increased dramatically.

Then he began to move his troops non-stop, wanting to intercept and kill Silan who rushed up.

In the face of many obstacles, Si Lan's face was solemn, and with the spear in his hand, after not knowing how many steppe cavalry he had killed in a row, his breathing obviously began to become heavy and rapid.

At this time, he only felt that the tiredness of his body was growing exponentially.

Probably from those changes, he saw Silan's state, and after a while in his heart, he directly put down the bow and arrow in his hand, pulled out the spear fixed on the saddle and rushed forward!

Round of melee strength, he is not Silan's opponent.

But there are many people in the world who can't beat Silan, and if Silan's strength is used as the standard, the threshold for fierce generals is inevitably too high.

Kereh's own melee strength is definitely not weak, and while changing into spear equipment and leading his troops to rush up, he decisively formed another set of blades on the battlefield, forcing Naturu to kill.

The persecution from two different directions made Natulu's forehead begin to break out in a bean-sized cold sweat.

If he continues to fight, he doesn't know how far the troops on both sides can fight, but his life always feels like it's hanging in the balance.

Calculating the time, he has been pestering Silan and Keree for a while, and it should be enough for his men to escape away in the grain truck.

As soon as he thought of this, Natulu's heart suddenly felt a sense of retreat, and after dealing with Silan and Keree again, he immediately gave the order to retreat.

Natulu's initiative to retreat made Silan and Keree secretly relieved, and it would be too unfavorable for them to continue this battle.

After a while, even if the steppe cavalry did not retreat, they would have to withdraw.

However, the two of them did not show this thought, although their bodies were exhausted, but even if it was a bluff, they had to chase it well, so as not to detect that something was wrong.

It was another chase and killing, looking at the steppe cavalry who fled quickly without looking back, Kelie and Silan breathed a sigh of relief.

The battle here ended with Natulu's retreat, but I don't know what happened to Qingyang's side.

Silan wanted to confirm the situation on the other side, but now he was more than capable of doing so, and after several days of rapid marching, he fought such a fierce battle.

At this time, the body has reached a critical point, and if you run down, I am afraid that the war horse will have to be lost.

Just when they were ready to take a break and regain a little strength, they went to the other side to see how it was going.

One from afar

The movement made them subconsciously tense their nerves, and then quickly relaxed.

I saw that the figures that came into their eyes at this time were the cavalry under the command of Qingyang, who had rushed to intercept the grain truck.

In addition to the cavalry accidents that opened the road in front, they were followed by one grain truck after another.

Obviously, the situation on Qingyang's side is much smoother than theirs.

This situation completely relieved Silan and Kree's breath.

After realizing that the grain cart had been snatched back by them, Nanatulu didn't know if he would attack again, so just in case, everyone quickly shifted their positions after regaining some strength.

In order to avoid being tracked by Silan and them, Natulu deliberately took his cavalry around in a big circle, and it took several more days to arrive at the meeting place.

It turned out that in the assembly place, except for a group of soldiers who stayed behind, the grain transport team never came back at all.

Suddenly, Natulu's face turned black to the bottom of the pot.

Then I couldn't help but think in my heart: "Those guys, they can't just run away with food, right?" ”

As a country with a very serious shortage of food, the amount of food in the Molkhanate is indeed heartwarming.

But after thinking about it, the steppe cavalry under his command are all old men who have followed him for many years, and unlike the rabble that was brought in later, they should still have loyalty, so they will not do such a thing.

I'm afraid something happened here.

Thinking of this, after running around for days, Natulu was not in the mood to rest, and rushed out directly with the grassland cavalry under his command.

The first location was the area where the Great Xia cavalry had fought before.

A few days had passed, and it was obvious that the cavalry of Great Xia had long since left, and it was impossible for them to stay here.

However, Natulu didn't come to look for them this time, he planned to follow the direction where the grain truck left at that time, find it, and confirm the traces of the grain transport team.

After seeing the direction and driving for a while, they soon found some scattered arrows along the way, and picked up a few at random, and Naturu took a closer look.

The arrows of the Mor Khanate and the arrows of Great Xia are very different in terms of shape and size, and the arrows that Tulu picked up casually are undoubtedly the arrows of the Mor Khanate.

That is, they let the arrows go here.

It looks like it was attacked.

didn't have time to think about it, Natulu hurriedly took the cavalry team under his command and continued to chase forward in the direction.

Then, before they could get closer, an almost disgusting stench came to their nostrils, causing the steppe cavalry who rushed over to frown subconsciously.

The smell was not unfamiliar to them, it was the stench produced by the decomposition of corpses!

After getting closer, looking at the grassland full of corpses in front of him, Natulu's breathing became much faster.

From the outfits on those corpses, he could clearly tell that these people were the steppe cavalry under his command.

And now, they're all dead.

"Did it be the troops of Great Xia?"

The thought flashed through Natulu's mind, but after thinking about it, it didn't feel right.

The troops of Great Xia, after the war, had a habit of burning all the corpses, instead of throwing them here and letting them rot.

So at this time, the tragic situation in front of him made Natulu feel a little less like the handiwork of Great Xia.

But what Tulu didn't know was that he was thinking too much about it.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

The main purpose of the Great Xia to burn the corpses after the war was to prevent the corpses from decomposing and breeding any epidemics that would affect them.

This time, there are two main reasons why Qingyang did not dispose of the corpse here after snatching back the grain truck.

The first reason was the urgency of the situation at the time.

Qingyang wanted to grab the grain truck quickly, and then rush back to the main battlefield, and didn't have time to slowly dispose of those corpses.

And the second reason is that this battlefield is 108,000 miles away from their Great Xia.

If you really don't have time, even if you don't deal with it, it's generally unlikely to affect them, so that's why you have the current situation.

As for making Naturu think about it inexplicably, it can only be said to be an unexpected gain.

Now turn your perspective back to Slan and Kree.

After that battle, the first thing they did when they were far away from this battlefield was to rest.

When I woke up, it was already the evening of the second day.

No way, they've been so tired all this time.

Even now, they all feel a little groggy in their heads.

After sunset, the hungry Silan and their people gathered around the fire to drink hot soup and eat food, replenishing the nutrients needed by their bodies.

And at this moment, as the general in charge of this logistics and transportation, Han Sen walked over with a face full of shame, and then knelt down on one knee in front of Cree to plead guilty.

"This mission, the last general is incompetent, please punish the general!"

Hearing this, Ke Lie, who drank all the hot soup in the bowl, glanced at Han Sen, who was kneeling there, and then said after wiping the corners of his mouth casually: "The logistics materials were almost all robbed by the grassland people, as the commander of the logistics force, you have an unshirkable responsibility." ”

Speaking of this, Si Lan turned slightly, and said: "However, this time the situation is special after all, and we didn't expect the grassland people to send such heavy troops to rob the grain." ”

"You can't compete with it, and choosing to retreat with your troops is considered a rational judgment."

"I will report all this matter to Your Majesty, and your Majesty will also make a judgment on your reward and punishment."

In Bai Ze's opinion, they at least snatched back all the grain trucks.

Although a certain amount of casualties were paid as a price, the food was not lost, and the strategy of the Zarkhanian steppe country was dismantled.

That's good.

After this battle, considering that the steppe cavalry might still have the possibility of turning their heads and grabbing food again, it was obviously impossible for them to just leave the logistics troops behind.

So after a brief discussion, Silan led the light cavalry back first, and while reporting the situation to the white wolf, the light cavalry could also provide a combat force for the front line.

It can also play a role in the subsequent battles.

Moreover, the speed of the light cavalry is the fastest, and it is able to rush back to the front line of the battlefield at the fastest speed.

As for the grain and grass, there are Kereh and Qingyang guarding together, even if there are grassland cavalry who want to rob the grain, not to mention that they have no return, it can be said that it is foolproof.

Early the next morning, under the personal escort of the cavalry, the logistics unit again escorted a large amount of grain and grass and rushed towards the front line.

After such a delay, I am afraid that the grain and grass will have to arrive some time late.

However, the front-line troops themselves carry some food and grass resources, and they can still afford to wait for a few days.

On the other side, after sending a large army of cavalry to rush to the aid of the logistics troops, the white wolf let his army rest in the city for two days.

Then he led the army and marched towards the next city of the Mor Khanate.
