After those cavalry who had been defeated earlier rushed back to the barbarian camp, they did not suffer the doom of beheading because of Tama negligence, but they told their familiar friends and close tribes about the encounter of the mask killing god they encountered on the battlefield, and the mask killing god did not have a single enemy in the hands of the long lance, no matter how famous the warriors and generals among the barbarians, as long as they encountered the mask killing god, they could only see the flash of the lance or the leap of the sword light, and then they all fell under the horse!

So almost all the barbarian armies since then have involuntarily walked around this mask to kill gods, and some of the fierce generals even tried their best to reduce their sense of existence, such as replacing the weapons they used to use with the scimitars in the hands of ordinary cavalrymen...... You must know that the killing god is rampant in the most elite cowardly army of the barbarian army, like entering a no-man's land!

So the barbarian army behind the palace involuntarily began to retreat, began to slip away, began, well, began to prepare to escape.

However, the Sui army that has begun to sprint is not something that the barbarian army that is stationed on the horse can dodge now, and after a whirlwind, the barbarian cavalry hovering behind the Sui army's circle is left with only an ownerless war horse still wandering at will.

With the sweep of the cavalry of the Great Sui Empire, soon the cavalry behind the barbarian army was swept away, and the rest had either passed through the countless circle formations of the Sui army and began to turn to attack again, or they were still trapped in countless circle formations, and were still receiving the baptism of crossbow arrows and dragon spears of the Sui army.

However, this soon changed. As the troops behind the barbarian army were cleaned up, the Sui army's circle formation disintegrated one by one, regrouped into a horizontal formation, and began to move closer to the circle formation behind the Sui army, and the heavy cavalry led by Li Qing and the light cavalry that increased in number again were still in the lead.

As if scribbling line by line, the Sui army led by Li Qing was the thick brush, wiping out the barbarian cavalry exhausted in the Sui army's great array line by line.

However, the physical strength of the heavy cavalry is limited after all, and after sweeping the four columns, the heavy cavalry also had to dismount again to rest, but this does not mean that the barbarian army got the opportunity to get out, because after sweeping the four columns, the free Sui army circle formation was enough to line up in a horizontal column to fill all the gaps left in front!

After the fierce battle lasted for two hours, whether it was the barbarian army that attacked the Sui army's round formation with all its might, or the Sui army that fought against it in a circle formation, the arrows at hand had been exhausted! Now the two sides are fighting, relying on the broadsword and spear in their hands, but the Sui army has the advantage! Who made the Sui army's armor more neat than the barbarian army, and the arrangement of more rejecting rifles and guns? Don't forget that the horse rejection pistol is reformed by skilled craftsmen, when not in use, it can be divided into three sections, and when needed, as long as the three sections of the gun body are rotated and stuck, it is a dragon gun up to three feet long, even if it is the middle section, it can be matched with a spear head separately and become a long spear!

It's just that the only drawback of this kind of dragon spear is that it is relatively thick, but is roughness a problem? It is not conducive to fighting, can it still prevent the Sui soldiers from throwing it as a javelin? This thing is not a delicate thing, it is just a thicker hardwood (of course, there is also a bamboo pole) with a steel ring made of steel to twist other gun bodies or gun heads, even if it is damaged, it is only necessary to replace a piece of wood, for this battle, Li Hu, the prince of the country, has prepared two million! Almost every Sui army has the amount of two dragon guns they carry!

Of course, these things are usually placed on large carts, and there is no need for the soldiers to bear their own burdens, but each soldier will form a squad, the squad will form a squadron, and the squadron will form a brigade, based on the centurion, until the captain of the ten thousand, which will form a circle one by one, supplemented by a large number of wooden square shields, which constitutes the turtle shell hedgehog array of the Sui army.

Just like the barbarian army besieging the most urgent Sui army, the Sui army gathered a large number of 30,000 Sui troops, although there was no cavalry among them, but relying on a large number of carriages, the Sui army was enough to carry 100,000 barbarian troops at the same time!

Of course, it is unrealistic to say this, because at this time, there is really not much space for the barbarian army to show their immediate strength in the large array composed of countless circular formations of the Sui army. Not to mention that the war horse is naturally disgusted with those big and small thorny things, and they will involuntarily dodge when they see it, even if the barbarian war horse is driven by the master, forcibly approaching, in the face of the three-zhang long dragon spear, what will the cavalry on the horse do to hurt the Sui soldiers in the circle?

So after almost all the barbarian troops penetrated into the Sui army's array, they involuntarily changed from cavalry to infantry, relying on the small round shield, scimitar, and mace in their hands, while parrying the dragon spears that kept stabbing out, retracting, and stabbing out again in the Sui army's circular array, while trying to penetrate the dragon lance forest to attack the Sui soldiers.

Of course, it is not that the circle formation of the Sui army was broken by the barbarian army, but one is that the scale of those circle formations is relatively small, generally no more than a thousand people, and the other barbarian army also paid a great price, and the exchange ratio with the Sui army is more than ten times, even so, it is because of the drive of a large number of blindfolded war horses, the victory was achieved, and then there are strong and weak in the Sui army, many Sui troops are recruits who have not experienced any war, once someone is shaken because of the bloody battle, in this environment surrounded by four enemies, it will inevitably cause a gap in defense from a certain angle, which will lead to the collapse of this small round array。

In fact, although Li Qing stopped sprinting, it was not only because the heavy cavalry under his command had excessive physical exertion, but also because the ground in front of him was no longer conducive to the cavalry charge.

What caught Li Qing's eyes were the corpses of people and horses everywhere, the damaged and broken weapons all over the eyes, the carriages that were still burning with fire and still emitting green smoke, and the flags that were still fluttering and were torn into strips of cloth, and even the sky looked bloody.

Diametrically opposed to the more and more powerless the barbarian army became, the equally exhausted Sui army was fighting high at this time, although tired, but after more and more round formations were liberated by Li Qing, they had the time and energy to replenish food and water in batches, and get a short rest, and then resurrect with full blood again, and return to the front line of the battle against the barbarian army.

The barbarian army does not have this treatment, the barbarian army that goes deep into the Sui army's large array will be attacked by the Sui army in all directions, where is there time to eat something, drink saliva, two hours of vigorous exercise, and the result of high spirits, that is, every barbarian soldier is pale, his eyes are full of blood, and his lips are already thirsty and white.

The barbarian army fought with the Sui army in front, but there was silence in the barbarian camp.

It was not that the remaining troops in the barbarian army camp were unwilling to dispatch to respond to the main force, but in the blink of an eye, the victory in the eyes of the barbarian nobles was reversed - the Sui army attacked with more than 100,000 cavalry, so that the barbarian army rear team was quickly completed, and the liberated Sui army circle formation has formed a slightly weak dragon spear defense line, at the same time, after sweeping the four columns of the circle formation, the heavy cavalry of the Sui army began to dismount and repair, but every barbarian cavalry knows that it is definitely not the limit of heavy cavalry combat!

The distance between the barbarian camp and the battlefield is also ten miles, if the troops are sent from the barbarian camp, then when the barbarian army is in formation, it will be enough for the heavy cavalry who killed the barbarian corpses everywhere to re-mount their horses, and even have time to start charging.

The contest between the light cavalry and the heavy cavalry is never about hedging, but the light cavalry must constantly approach and pull away from such battles until the physical strength of the heavy cavalry is exhausted, which is the moment for the light cavalry to attack. But hedging? hehe, unless it is to seek their own death, no light cavalry is willing to do it. The barbarian nobles in the camp would not force their soldiers to do such a thing, and instead of doing that, it would be better to take the opportunity to turn their horses' heads and flee back to the steppe.

In fact, almost all the barbarian nobles who stayed in the camp made their subordinates prepare for this, and the only thing that made them hesitate was that now the death or life of the Great Khan Tama was not clear, and once Tama was killed or seriously injured in battle, then it was time for them to escape. The aristocratic leaders of all barbarians will have barbarian princes who are close to them, and who let the barbarian rule be such a characteristic.

As long as there is a new barbarian Great Khan ascending the throne, he will immediately start marrying with various tribes, then his children will also have the support of their respective mothers, once the Great Khan dies, the only thing that can determine the next Great Khan is whether the strength gathered under their respective commands is enough to subdue the other brothers!

Li Hu, the chief general of the Sui army, was very clear about the characteristics of the barbarians in the steppe, so he had no intention of wiping out all the barbarians who had sent troops this time, so the only order given to Li Qing for the strength of the barbarian battalion was: As long as the barbarian battalion no longer sends troops, it only needs to be monitored by cavalry; if troops are dispatched, then they must be resolutely beaten back! The decisive battle between the main force of the Sui army and the barbarian army must not be affected.

That's right. Li Hu's plan was only to defeat the barbarian army, including the main force of the barbarian army. Li Hu knew the truth of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, and a head-on duel did not leave room for the barbarians to escape, in exchange for only the decisive attack of the barbarian army, which would only bring the same heavy casualties to the Sui army, so even if it attacked, the Sui army was also prepared with countless carts, and it was still a circular formation with defense as the attack. In addition, the Sui army also left a passage for the barbarian army to rush out of the large array from the other direction of the Sui army's circular array, and repeatedly emphasized that as long as the barbarian army broke out of the large array and no longer turned back to attack, it could no longer be ignored, only need to monitor, and concentrate all its energy on the passage between the countless circular formations, and mainly kill with arrows, rather than using dragon spears as a hedgehog-style attack.
