Chapter 80: Armageddon (3)
"Damn, these southerners are like hedgehogs! There is no place to put down at all! ”
In a hidden canyon, Gebatu led a group of his subordinates to hide in the wind and snow outside, took a bite of beef jerky, and said viciously.
Just after withdrawing from the Fifth Army, the next day Gebatu led his men to launch a tentative attack around the other four directions, but without exception, those places teased me to play with the escort garrison, as soon as I leaned over, the bow and crossbow were waiting, and when they reached a certain distance, they went directly to the crossbow, and instead of getting a bargain, they went around a circle, but took a lot of people in!
Thinking about the events of the day, Gebatu took another bite of beef jerky and chewed it hard, as if the beef jerky in his mouth was those hedgehog-like southerners, and he wanted to chew them hard and chew them hard!
On the side, the 10,000 households under his command Gudha heard the words and said:
"Khan, why don't we go back? The 50,000 warriors brought out by this expedition are now half broken, and if we continue, I am afraid that we will be completely wiped out, and then we Hegel will really be destroyed, and I don't believe that others will show mercy to our young and strong Hegel men. ”
Gebatu chewed the jerky, he also knew that what Goodha said was right, the grassland is such a strong eater, even if you belong to the same Tatar tribe, once you are weak, they will not show mercy when they annex your tribe.
But he was really unwilling to go back like this!
The teachers moved the crowd to come, but they didn't take advantage of anything and went back in disgrace, and they lost half of their combat power, which is simply a great shame!
In the future, when the other tribes knew about it, he Gebatu would become a joke among the Tatars, and he could not accept such a result.
But Gudha persuaded again: "Khan, we have more than 20,000 people left, and there are still more than 100,000 people in the tribe waiting for us to return.
Although we have lost half of the warriors, as long as we go back, with more than 20,000 warriors in our hands, we are still the largest tribe within a radius of thousands of miles, plus those small tribes in the vicinity have been captured by the southerners, and a large area of grassland has no one to belong to, and our Hegel department can even take this opportunity to expand greatly, and the population may be doubled in a few years.
It's not a dream to regain the 50,000 warriors of their peak or even more!
Khan, you need to be sensible. ”
Gebatu was silent, thought quietly, sighed helplessly for a long time, looked around, and looked at the defeated faces of the warriors of the surrounding tribes, he knew that if he continued, the warriors would not be able to raise any morale, and his Hegel tribe's expedition could already be said to be a failure, and there was no need to cause greater losses.
As for this field......
Gebatu's eyes flashed, as long as he went back and lied to the Great Khan about the situation here, maybe he would be able to come with the big army next year, and at that time, even if the weapons on the other side were powerful, what could they do?
He didn't believe that in the face of hundreds of thousands of string-pulling soldiers, what effect could the southerners' troops have, even one person could drown them with a mouthful of spittle!
After cleaning up his mood, Gebatu sighed heavily and said in a deep voice: "Since it's all like this, let's withdraw, and we'll go back to the tribe early tomorrow morning." ”
Soon, the news of tomorrow's return to the tribe spread throughout the camp, and the originally defeated faces of many of the Hegel cavalry showed joy.
They have long wanted to go back, this raid is not at all as good as imagined, the Nanren are not as weak as the Khan said, their bows and crossbows are simply too terrifying, they don't want to face this weapon anymore, it's better to go back to the tribe and sleep with the ewe in their arms.
The movement in the camp was naturally felt by Gebatu, and from the moment he gave the order, Gebatu could feel the homecoming feelings of the soldiers around him that almost floated on their faces, which finally made him let go of the last knot in his heart and no longer hold entanglements.
Just as the Hegel cavalry was about to fall asleep with the anticipation that they would return to the tribe tomorrow.
Suddenly! A rapid sound of bull's horns woke everyone up, and then everyone who heard the sound quickly put on their armor, took their weapons, found their horses, and hurried in the direction of the mouth of the canyon.
This is because this trumpet is an emergency trumpet in the army, and it will only be sounded when the enemy is coming, telling everyone that the enemy is coming.
Gebatu had just fallen asleep, when he was suddenly awakened by the sound of the trumpet, and his mind shook violently, and he didn't care about the others, put on his armor and picked up his scimitar, and came to the valley under the escort of a group of guards.
As soon as they arrived, a sentry immediately came to report: "Khan! There is movement in the south, and a large number of people are rushing to the canyon, and the number of people is about 10,000, and it is impossible to tell the point! ”
Needless to say, Gebatu already saw the person he said in his vision.
In the dark night, on the edge of the snow-covered snow, and then the bright blood color tonight, you can clearly see a group of black figures slowly approaching the mouth of the canyon.
There was already a slight tremor on the ground, and the Tatars, who lived on horseback all year round, knew that there was a large number of cavalry nearby, which indicated that the other side had at least one cavalry in large numbers.
Gebatu reacted quickly, knowing that the army could not continue to stay here, otherwise it would be easy to be blocked in this canyon, and he would not be able to run when the time came.
Hurriedly ordered the whole army to shift positions!
Woo~Woo~Woo~
Four basic horns sounded, and the Hegel cavalry, which had been assembled, quickly rushed out of the mouth of the gorge and ran towards the open space on the side to regroup.
In the process of transferring, Gebatu finally saw the appearance of the opposite side clearly, who could it be if it wasn't those southerner troops during the day?
Gebatu clenched his fists, he was going to withdraw tomorrow, but this group of southerners was simply too deceitful!
With so many infantry, they actually blocked their own doors and took the initiative to fight for themselves?
Is this a naked insult, despising him, thinking that he is a soft persimmon?
Gebatu decided that he couldn't bear it, and this was also a good fighter, the other party actually gave up his built fortifications and ran out to fight them head-on, how is this a stupid word, do they still think that with their group of infantry, they can really win their cavalry head-on?
It's just ridiculous!
Gebatu made up his mind, since the other party wanted to fight, then fight with the other party seriously, and let the other party know that their Hegel Department is not a soft-footed shrimp! Anyone can be bullied!
Soon, the remaining 27,000 horsemen of the Hegel Department had been assembled in the open space, and before the other party could completely reveal their bodies in the snowstorm.
Gebatu, who had a calm face, raised his scimitar and roared: "Kill!" ”
The bento rushed towards the Kuroshio first.
And the Hegel cavalry, who originally thought that they would be able to go home tomorrow, were blocked the day before they went home, and the grievances of the previous battles instantly came to their hearts, and at this moment they seemed to have found an outlet to vent all of them, and they also roared and followed behind their own khans and launched a charge against the enemy!
As soon as there was movement on their side, the mighty sound of the galloping war horses instantly made Guan Ning's side aware of it.
Guan Ning and his cavalry officers were not to be outdone, they had already changed into heavy armor, and they were not moving slowly, but the same horse whip began to speed up, and they met the rushing Hegel army!
This time, they want to be upright and cut through this group of Tartars head-on, so that they can see the power of the cavalry of the Guardian Army!
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
The two cavalrymen, in this snowy night with a silver-white moonlight shining on it, seemed to be two rushing black streams constantly accelerating towards the same center!
Until the moment of collision......
