Chapter 451
Chapter 451
Gulun was anxiously thinking about how to deal with it. He didn't realize that Bass had betrayed their agreement and secretly joined Barlett.
If Gulun knew the truth, I'm afraid that the only hope left in his heart would be completely shattered, and he would fall into a deeper abyss of despair and couldn't extricate himself.
Soon, the general in charge of statistics ran back.
"Chief, there are less than 800,000 people following us."
The man reported helplessly.
"What, so we lost two million?"
"It's over. I'm afraid they have been surrounded by Barlett cavalry at this moment. What should we do?"
Surrounded, the vast grassland, without food and water, the only food they brought with them was not enough to support them for a few days.
Even if the Barlett cavalry did not take the initiative to attack, they would not be able to hold on for a few days.
By then, they would be extremely hungry and thirsty, and they would have to kill horses, and it would be completely over.
"Chief, we must rescue them. As long as we open a gap, we can bring out many brothers."
"Yes, Chief, we still have 800,000 cavalrymen. We can definitely open a gap if we take them by surprise."
If these two million cavalrymen are left alone, they can only surrender or die miserably. There is absolutely no other way.
And the characteristics of the barbarians are like this. They almost never choose to fight to the death. They are likely to surrender. This is equivalent to adding two million cavalrymen to the Barit tribe.
How can we fight next?
Don't think that those cavalrymen will run back to the tribe after surviving the crisis. They won't. They will only obey the orders of the new master.
As long as they don't kill their loved ones, there are not so many distinctions in the hearts of the barbarians.
Now, while they haven't surrendered so quickly, bring them out, and they will still be good brothers.
Otherwise, the next time we meet, we will meet with swords and weapons.
"Chief, the rear army is important, but what about our tribe?"
"There are not only the two million defenders we left behind, but also countless civilians. Once we return to rescue, we may be caught in a tough battle, and may even be surrounded by Barit again."
"What should the tribe do if this happens?"
Some people opposed returning to rescue.
The tribe also has a lot of troops, and there are so many civilians. Once they fall into the hands of the Bass tribe, the Bass tribe will only become stronger.
They not only lost their territory, but also their supplies, and the consequences are even more unpredictable.
Dilemma.
"Return to the tribe and repel Bass first, otherwise we will have no supplies and this battle cannot go on."
Gulun still made a choice.
The key lies in supplies. Without supplies, we can't fight for a long time. Therefore, the hometown cannot be lost.
As for the lost two million cavalry, we can only think of another way. The most urgent task is to stabilize the basic situation.
So, Gulun left those cavalry behind and continued to rush towards the tribe with the only less than 800,000 troops.
At this moment, the Bass cavalry is still attacking the Gulun tribe fiercely.
The main target of the Bass cavalry is the small and medium-sized tribes that are vassalized by the Gulun tribe.
In order to survive, these people can abandon Gulun and join Bass at any time.
These small and medium-sized tribes have few troops and are easier to fight. Once they are captured, they will immediately take the military power, take the soldiers who can fight and enter Bass's camp.
If the fight continues like this, it won't take long for Gulun to have no soldiers available.
"General Huo, report from the front line, Gulun has returned with his army. Should we take the initiative to fight or temporarily avoid the front?"
Bass is not clear about Gulun's current specific situation.
"Gulun is already a dog who has lost his home. There are only more than 700,000 people around him. It is not difficult to deal with."
"Chief Bass, stop attacking the Gulun tribe, gather the cavalry, and we will deal with Gulun first."
The people of the Gulun tribe can't run away, and they can attack again at any time. Besides, after dealing with Gulun, there will be basically no more fighting here.
A few days later, the cavalry led by Gulun was on the verge of collapse.
Along the way, there was no supply, and the people and horses were almost unable to hold on.
"Tell everyone to hold on, we will be there soon."
Gulun could only boost morale. It was difficult to fight a big battle under such circumstances.
"Chief, what if we encounter the Bass cavalry?"
Some people were worried.
"There is no way, we can only fight hard."
"Look, our home is ahead. Only when we return home can we get replenishment."
"Except going home, we have no way to go."
Indeed, even if he wanted to find another tribe to join at this time, Gulun had no chance.
Gulun never thought that he would lead three million cavalrymen to conquer the Barit tribe with high spirits.
It has only been a short time, and he actuallyEnded up like this.
"Bass, if one day you fall into my hands, I will cut you into pieces."
Gulun blamed Bass for the root of his failure.
If it weren't for Bass's betrayal, even if the Barlett cavalry returned, even if there was help from Xia, this battle would not be impossible.
But now, it's too late to say anything, the despicable Bass has ruined a bright future.
"Chief, it's bad, the Bass cavalry has appeared, and now it's in front of us."
After the Bass cavalry appeared, there was no need to surround them, they just needed to block Gulun's way home, and Gulun would be helpless.
"Bass, bastard, you're looking for death."
"Come on, prepare the army, I want to tear Bass apart with my own hands."
Whoever he thought of appeared, Gulun wanted to kill Bass immediately.
"Chief, don't be impulsive."
The exhausted army now has little chance of winning, and the number of enemy troops is still unknown.
"Do we still have any choice?"
Gulun was a little desperate.
Only then did the others realize that the vast grassland was my favorite home in normal times, but now, this vast grassland is a death warrant.
The people of the Gulun tribe had no way out, and they attacked the Bass tribe with the determination to die.
The cavalry of the Bass tribe had the advantage in numbers, so they were naturally not afraid, and the two sides fought fiercely.
After a whole day of fighting, the Gulun tribe was unable to break through the defense line of the Bass cavalry.
Gulun personally went into battle and wanted to kill Bass, but he didn't see the shadow of Bass at all.
The Bass tribe was not in a hurry, and the Gulun tribe was helpless and could only withdraw troops to rest and fight again the next day.
"How many people did you lose today?"
In the evening, Gulun asked.
"Chief, today our army has nearly 200,000 people killed in battle, and more than 100,000 people are missing."
The missing people either ran away in the chaos or became prisoners of the Bass cavalry.
"Order the army to kill horses to fill their stomachs and have a good rest for the night. We must break through the defense line of the Bass tribe tomorrow."
With so many casualties in the battle, the freed horses can temporarily relieve the urgent need.
Gulun knew that he could not delay any longer. He had to break through tomorrow, otherwise it would be over.
