Chapter 171: Escape into the valley, the nest is dug up

"General, the enemy has retreated."

Huang Degong held up the binoculars and looked at it, and his face that was originally sure of victory showed a hint of depth: "This son of Geldan is a decisive person, he can't immediately withdraw his troops when he sees things, he is a strong enemy for us, and he will give the order to go down, and after the troops destroy the surrounded enemy army, they will immediately follow the pursuit, and do not let them retreat to the mountain, and once the enemy army is on the mountain, immediately stop the pursuit."

"Yes!"

Under the urging of Huang Degong, the armies immediately and quickly eliminated the Liejun, and then the infantry chariots and trucks pursued Teng Bar at full speed, obviously, Teng Bar underestimated the pursuit speed of the Ming army's infantry chariots and trucks, and the speed of eighty yards far exceeded the speed of the war horses.

"Report! - Prince, the Ming army has caught up, and their iron-clad monsters are more than twice as fast as our horses. ”

"Pass the order, the whole army immediately go up the mountain, Saha, where do you take people to the mountain pass, prepare a big stone at the top of the mountain, once our army passes, you immediately enlarge the stone to block the mountain pass and block the advance of the Ming army."

"Prince, with so many of us in the mountains, supply is a big problem."

"What are you afraid of, there is always food that can be eaten in the mountains, and if you can't do it, you can kill war horses to satisfy your hunger, this time we greatly underestimated the advantages of the Ming army's weapons, so that there was this defeat, tell the soldiers, the responsibility for the defeat of this battle lies with me, and whoever participates in the war after returning to Yili will be rewarded by this prince."

"Yes!" Saha went to give an order, and the remaining less than 100,000 horses immediately entered the mountain from the nearest mountain pass, and when the Ming army caught up, he happened to see Saha leading people to block the mountain pass with large stones.

"General, are we still going to pursue?"

"There is no need to pursue, the climate in this mountain is vulgar and it is still snowing, plus we are not clear about the situation in the mountains, and the pursuit of the enemy is not good for me, and the enemy army has lost a lot of cold materials after the previous battle, and it is not comfortable to enter the mountains, we wait for the news."

Just like Huang Degong, after Teng Bar led a large group of men and horses into the mountain, he found that it was still snowing in the mountain, and the soldiers did not have much to protect themselves from the cold, and most of them were lost in the previous battle, so they had to walk on the bottom of the valley below the snow line, and the big stones at the bottom of the valley were vertical and horizontal, and it was extremely difficult to walk, so they all dismounted

"Saha, are you familiar with this area? Do you know how to get out there quickly? The march was too slow, and the jerky we carried with us could not support much. ”

"Rest assured, prince, we can walk out along this valley, there is a road not far ahead, which was discovered by the previous sentry, and along that road, we will be back in Ili in seven or eight days, and then we will be completely safe."

"That's good, you're right, we will be safe when we return to Yili, the Ili River Valley is surrounded by mountains, easy to defend and difficult to attack, no matter how the weapons of the Ming army are played, it is also difficult to cross, after going back, we immediately set up checkpoints at various passes and place the Ming army to sneak attack."

"Yes, Prince, rest assured, Ili has taken advantage of the territory, and the enemy army will definitely be unable to penetrate." are very confident, but where is there anything really difficult to enter, and if there is, how do they themselves get in, and the exaggerated ingredients can only comfort themselves.

After a lot of hardships, Teng Bar finally returned to Ili with the remnants of the army, the scene in front of him made his jaw drop, only to see his lair, full of Ming army flags, sent people to inquire, only to know that it was Li Dingguo's Ming army along the march route of Geerdan, detoured through Tsarist Russia from the east into Ili, and cleared the men and horses left behind in Ili.

"Report! General, at the foot of Baishi Mountain in the south of the city, there was a brigade of soldiers and horses of Geerdan, about 100,000. The outpost found Tengbar and reported it to Li Dingguo in time.

"Eneng!"

"The last general!"

"You immediately lead the battalion of infantry chariots and trucks to meet the enemy, and the commander will lead the brigade to arrive, remember, be sure to block the enemy army at the bottom of the mountain, and do not let him escape into the mountains and forests again."

"Yes!"

On the other side, Trembar was also listening to the report of his subordinates.

"Prince, it is reported that there are more than 200,000 Ming troops in the city, and our subordinates think that we should immediately enter the mountains and take the mountain road west into the Hak Khanate, and we still have an army of tens of thousands of Rao left there, which is enough for us to go all the way west and open up new territories, and we can't stay in Ili."

The homeland is difficult to leave, to be honest, Tengbar is reluctant to leave just yet, but he knows that Saha's suggestion is the only way out at present, and he is very entangled in his heart, but the Ming army did not let him be entangled for long.

"Report! - The Ming army is coming towards me in three ways, with the left and right flanks to approach our rear army! ”

"What! Fast! Saha, order the army to retreat immediately, don't be surrounded by the Ming army, be quick! Take the mountain road to the Hak Khanate. ”

Although the order was urgent, the army that had been wandering around the mountain for many days was already exhausted at this time, where could they still move as freely as before, so before they all entered the mountain, they were cut off by the Ming army led by Ai Nengqi, and only a small part of the rear army could enter the mountain, and all the generals, including Tengbar, were blocked at the foot of the mountain by the Ming army.
