Food Robbery

The dense rain of arrows continued to disintegrate the defense of the grain transport troops.

Faced with such a huge disparity in strength, even if the grain transport troops desperately resisted, it would be difficult to form an effective counterattack.

As a cavalry general, Liu Kai was in an even more difficult situation.

The number of cavalry in his army is only three hundred.

Take three hundred light cavalry to attack thousands of prairie cavalry?

No matter how you look at it, this is no different than sending yourself to death.

And he will die worthless.

Seeing that the entire army was about to be crushed by the prairie cavalry's arrow rain offensive.

At this time, there were only two choices before Liu Kai.

The first option is to fight to the end and hope for a miracle to happen.

The second option is to preserve the troops and abandon the grain truck to retreat.

To be honest, neither choice is very wise, and both involve considerable risks.

But as the commander of this grain transport team, Liu Kai clearly realized that he had to make a choice.

Even if this choice is extremely difficult.

Taking a deep breath, and after making his own rational judgment, Liu Kai decisively issued the order to retreat.

He didn't know if the frontline troops were aware that the prairie country had sent such a large force of prairie cavalry to rob food.

Therefore, Liu Kai could not be sure whether reinforcements would arrive.

Under this premise, with only this small force against thousands of prairie cavalry, they will only be unilaterally massacred.

At this time, it is wise to choose to retreat and preserve your troops.

However, this retreat is not that simple.

Most of their logistics troops are infantry.

But the other side was full of cavalry.

If they want to withdraw, they have to see if the other party agrees.

Sure enough, the prairie cavalry under Bazar had no intention of letting them go.

For Bazar, although the main purpose this time was to rob food, it would be even better if he could easily destroy more than a thousand of the opponent's troops.

Is there any reason to let it go?

After leaving a thousand prairie cavalry to take over the grain trucks, the remaining prairie cavalry decisively continued the pursuit.

At this point, Liu Kai was already mentally prepared.

After abandoning the grain truck, the soldiers' movements became significantly more flexible.

Maintaining their formation, they fought and retreated toward the east.

The prairie cavalry on the opposite side relied on their mounted shooting attack method to completely entangle them, making it impossible for them to escape.

You can't fight, you can't escape, you can't escape.

The disgusting nature of the horse archers can be said to be clearly revealed at this moment.

The only thing worth celebrating at this time is probably that their infantry units are basically all equipped with shields and armor.

Facing the overwhelming rain of arrows, he didn't fall completely into a state of waiting for death.

But the situation is not much better...

At this moment, Liu Kai, who was commanding the logistics troops to fight and retreat, could be said to be under tremendous psychological pressure.

This kind of battle made him feel like every second was like a year.

I don’t know how long it lasted, but most of the soldiers under my command who fought bloody battles have been killed.

To the east, a cloud of sand and dust rose up into the sky.

Among the sand and dust, the military flag was blown by the wind, causing Liu Kai, who was in a state of embarrassment at the moment, to reveal a look of ecstasy on his face.

"Reinforcements, reinforcements have arrived!!"

A simple shout.

But it was as if a shot of cardiotonic was given to the remaining soldiers.

It lifted the spirits of all the soldiers!

And the movement here will naturally fall into Bazar's eyes.

Realizing that the situation had changed, Bazar's pupils shrank violently, and then he shouted decisively...

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

As he spoke, Bazar took the lead in changing direction and rushed towards the distance.

On the other side, the prairie cavalry who had stayed behind to take over the grain truck moved very neatly.

He directly fixed his horse to the grain truck.

A grain cart pulled by two horses is much faster than one pulled by one.

In addition, my own riding skills are there.

Driving a carriage didn't feel too awkward at all.

By the time Bazar withdrew his soldiers, they had already driven away in their grain trucks.

The menacing cavalry troop rushed past Liu Kai and others without even having time to stop.

Bai Ze probably knows what's going on here.

Without any nonsense, he led the cavalry under his command and sped up to pursue him.

To a certain extent, they arrived in time.

It was almost as expected by His Majesty the Emperor.

If the prairie cavalry really wanted to rob food, they would definitely wait until they officially launched their attack.

At that time, most of their attention will be transferred to the siege battle in front of them.

This greatly increases the success rate of grain robbery.

The opponent's move was a good one. If Gray Harrier hadn't told Luo Ji, the grassland cavalry who had left before had never returned to the Chalhan Grassland Kingdom.

I'm afraid he won't react so quickly.

As a light cavalry unit, its mobility is naturally ranked first.

Under this premise, Bai Ze also launched the strategy of "soldiers are more valuable and faster".

We marched all the way in a hurry and traveled day and night to get here.

At this moment, although the soldiers of the cavalry were tired and sleepy, they knew very well the importance of this batch of food.

Each and every one of them was very energetic.

Some even bit the tip of their tongues directly, relying on the pain to force themselves to concentrate and stay awake.

Eagles hit the sky! The two eagles Xueyu and Gege are faster than the cavalry.

The wings flapped several times, showing amazing speed.

He directly caught up with the galloping prairie cavalry.

The chirping of eagles from the sky reached the ears of every prairie cavalryman.

Invisibly, it brought them a huge psychological pressure.

Because this means they are positioned!

As long as Xueyu and Gege continue to chase them.

Then it will be difficult for them to escape the pursuit of the Civilized Cavalry of All Realms.

They had experienced things like this countless times in the past few months.

Therefore, Bazar also has a way to deal with it.

One of the simplest ways is to run separately.

However, their purpose this time is to steal all the food.

While alleviating the food problem of their Qarhan Grassland Country.

Let the frontline troops of all world civilizations completely run out of food.

With such a purpose in mind, it would be meaningless if the other party snatched part of the food back and thus got a chance to mobilize and breathe.

Therefore, they must steal all this batch of food!

Thinking of this, Bazar gritted his teeth and decisively ordered again...

"Those of you who carry the food continue to run, the rest of you will stay with me!!"
