The total strength of the Albus Division is more than 40,000, but the tribes are scattered all over the place, and it will take at least five or six days to assemble them all. The troops of the headquarters are not large. In addition to the standing army of 2,000, the other soldiers come from the youth of each family.
Strong, in a very short period of time, Absi's headquarters quickly gathered nearly 4,000 young cavalry. Together with the 2,000 standing cavalry, the cavalry of Absi's headquarters reached more than 5,800.
Outside the tent, Governor Mut got into a large carriage pulled by twenty horses, guarded by two hundred soldiers. He said to his eldest son Tiehetai from the carriage window: "Resist with all your might and buy as much time as possible."
!”
"Follow the order!"
Tiehetai turned his horse's head and led a dozen people towards the army gathering place.
At this time, several soldiers carried Shi Tong over, and Mutt pointed to the back of the carriage, "Let him sit in the back compartment!"
The large carriage was like a house, with several small compartments, mainly for storing luggage and important items. Shi Tong was his most valued cook, so of course he had to take it with him.
Several soldiers pushed Shi Tong into the small car and locked it from the outside.
Mutt shouted again: "Don't forget the ingredients, bring them all to me, no less!"
Several soldiers rushed back to the rear tent, and the carriage started, escorted by hundreds of cavalry, and headed south.
At this time, 30,000 Sijie cavalry had already reached ten miles away, and met more than 5,000 Absi cavalry led by Tiehetai. The two cavalry started a fierce battle on the vast grassland east of the Swan River.
Guo Song also rushed to the huge egg-shaped king's tent. In front of the king's tent, there were servants and attendants packing their belongings and running away. They were fighting for the large number of gold and silver utensils left by Mut. There was chaos everywhere.
"Where is the kitchen?" Guo Song grabbed someone and asked.
The man pointed to the back of the huge tent, and Guo Song left him behind and urged his horse to run towards the back tent.
The kitchen was easy to spot, and the entrance to the tent was piled with various ingredients. Guo Song rode directly into the tent and saw five soldiers packing and packing ingredients, but Shi Tong was nowhere to be seen.
"Where's the Han cook?"
Guo Song asked anxiously: "The governor asked me to take him away!"
Five soldiers looked at him in surprise, and one said: "Didn't that man be taken away by the governor? You didn't know?"
The other man felt something was wrong and quietly went to get the spear that was lying aside. Guo Song caught a glimpse and with a wave of his hand, a flying knife shot through the man's head. The soldier screamed and died immediately.
The other four people were in chaos and drew their swords one after another. Guo Song reached out to grab the spear and stabbed it with the spear. He had practiced spearing by the Xiutu Lake and used the nine sword styles as the basis, and he could also use the spear to perfection.
In the blink of an eye, he stabbed three people to death, put a spear to the throat of the fourth, and asked coldly: "Where did the governor take the Han cook?"
The soldier was so frightened that he stammered: "They are going to the Black Teeth Department!"
"Where is the Black Teeth?"
"To the southwest!"
"How long have you been gone?"
"I just left not long ago!"
"Thank you very much!"
Guo Song stabbed him to death with a spear, turned his horse's head and rushed out of the tent. He took out the eagle flute hanging on his chest and blew it hard. The eagle flute made a low-frequency sound that was inaudible to humans, but it could make the fierce men more than ten miles away
hear.
Not long after, a goshawk appeared in the sky, folded its wings and landed on Guo Song's shoulder. Guo Song pointed to the south, "Go south to find the cavalry!"
Mengzi tilted his head and looked at him for a moment, then suddenly fluttered his wings and flew towards the south.
After all, Mengzi is just a pet eagle and lacks professional training. Sometimes it can understand its own words, but sometimes it can't. You can't expect too much from it.
In the end, Guo Song had to rely on himself. He urged his horse to gallop south...
At this time, Absi's cavalry was outnumbered and began to rout. Mut's son Tiehetai died in the chaos. Governor Salle shouted loudly: "Whoever gets Mut's head will be rewarded with 50,000 sheep!"
The key to annihilating Albus's tribe is to capture or kill Mutt. Once he is allowed to escape, he will quickly gather an army to counterattack. If they get to that point, it means that their raid plan has failed.
Tens of thousands of cavalry rose up to pursue them, their iron hooves rolled and galloped on the grassland, killing and plundering swept through the entire tribe.
After Guo Song ran twenty miles along the Swan River, he suddenly heard the cry of a fierce man in the air. The fierce man was in the northwest direction of him. Guo Song hesitated for a moment, but turned the horse's head and galloped back. After running for about two miles, he finally
I realized what I had missed. There was a large area of water damage along the river, extending to the other side. There were also two deep ruts on the other side. It turned out that Governor Absi crossed the river from here.
He did not hesitate to urge the horse to rush into the river. The river here was indeed not deep. It had just submerged to the horse's belly, and the river was only more than ten feet wide. After a moment, he jumped on the other side of the river and continued to chase the two cars.
After chasing for less than ten miles, he saw a large group of cavalry and a large carriage parked at the edge of a forest. The wheel seemed to be broken. A fat man was sticking his head out of the window and shouting loudly.
scold.
The fierce men were hovering above their heads, and cavalrymen were constantly firing their bows and arrows at the fierce men in the sky.
Sijie Governor Salle told him on the way that the leader of the Albus Tribe was extremely fat and could be recognized at a glance wherever he went.
But what Guo Song cares about is not the leader of the Absi tribe, but Shi Tong, who was taken away by him. Where is he now?
At this time, the cavalry in front spotted Guo Song who was chasing after him, and a dozen cavalrymen immediately turned around and came over to meet him.
Although Guo Song wore the same armor as Albus's cavalry, they revealed Guo Song's secrets with just one word.
"Give me the password!" shouted a centurion.
Damn it, there was actually a password. Guo Song bowed and shot an arrow. The centurion was caught off guard and was hit in the throat by an arrow, causing him to flip over and fall from his horse.
The other soldiers were shocked and shouted: "It's a spy from the Sijie Department!"
Mutt was furious and ordered: "Kill him!"
More than a dozen cavalry reinforcements came up, bringing the number of cavalry Guo Song faced to 30. However, Guo Song had long discovered their weakness. Like the Si Jie tribe, their bows and arrows were all single bows, and their range was generally only five.
Sixty steps.
As long as he kept a sufficient distance, he could shoot these cavalrymen one by one.
On the grassland, Guo Song's arrows were all right, and he shot and killed more than 20 people in a row. He walked around to the other side of the carriage. At this time, Guo Song saw a person imprisoned behind the carriage, and his face was just covered. However, from the figure and outline, Guo Song
Song then had a strong feeling that this person was Shi Tong.
Mutt saw that Guo Song's arrows were powerful and sharp, killing people like hemp. He suddenly became furious and shouted: "If you can't kill him with a hundred cavalry, don't come back!"
Hundreds of cavalrymen rushed forward, but Guo Song turned his horse's head and ran into the woods. After entering the woods for more than a hundred feet, he lightly jumped up onto a big tree, and his horse continued to run forward.
"Surround him from all sides, don't let him escape!"
A captain shouted loudly, and more than a hundred cavalry dispersed and surrounded Guo Song's horses. They did not realize that the man was no longer on the horse.
What Guo Song wanted was this effect. He lightly jumped down from the tree, hid behind a bush, opened his bow and nocked an arrow, and shot fifteen arrows in a row. Without looking at the result, he immediately jumped to the west and ran out.
After more than a hundred steps, he leaned against a big tree and gently massaged his arms. Archery took too much force and his arms were a little sore.
The fifteen cavalrymen let out a series of screams and fell off their horses one after another. Some soldiers shouted: "He is behind us!"
A dozen cavalrymen rushed towards where the arrow came from, but they didn't find where Guo Song was?
At this time, the captain also saw that there was no one on the horse. He was furious and shot three arrows in a row, killing Guo Song's horse. He shouted sternly: "Search for him and find him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a scream from the west. He had just galloped a few dozen steps, and then there was a scream from the southwest.
Suddenly someone shouted: "We are surrounding him!"
The captain immediately urged his horse to rush over and saw the bodies of seven or eight soldiers lying under a big tree, but the other party was nowhere to be seen.
The captain then began to panic. Seven or eight people surrounded him but could not kill him. Instead, he was killed by the other party. When had there ever been such a powerful person in the Sijie tribe?
If the fight continues like this, hundreds of soldiers will be hunted down one by one by the opponent.
The commander flinched a little. He turned his horse's head and was about to run away when a wolf-fang arrow shot from the side, as fast as lightning. "Pfft!" The arrow pierced the commander's temple, and the commander screamed in agony.
There was no sound, he just turned over and fell off his horse...
Outside the woods, Mutt waited for a full quarter of an hour. There was no news about the cavalry who entered the woods. His carriage could not be repaired for a long time. He was nervous and irritable at the same time. He ordered: "No more repairs, get rid of the horse."
Bring it to me!"
Mutt's body is too fat, weighing at least three hundred kilograms, so his horse is also one of a million. It is red all over, tall, with strong limbs, a long tail, and not a single hair on its body. It is named Fire Dragon King, which is the symbol of the grassland.
A very famous war horse.
Several soldiers desperately pushed him onto the horse. Mutt mounted the horse, took a long breath, pointed at Shi Tong, "Take him, let's go!"
Shi Tong had been taking a closer look at the goshawk circling above his head. He thought the eagle looked familiar, much like Brother Guo's fierce son, but he couldn't believe it. This place was thousands of miles away from Lingzhou. How could Brother Guo come here?
But the Sijie cavalryman who was very good at riding and shooting just now really looks a bit like Brother Guo.
"Hurry up and get on your horse!"
The soldier guarding him gave him a hard push. He and another soldier pushed Shi Tong onto the horse like a chicken. The soldier guarding him rode behind him and controlled him on the horse.
Dozens of cavalry surrounded Mutter and ran toward the southwest.
They ran for less than a stick of incense when Guo Song came out of the dense forest. He changed to a white horse. His horse was shot with seven or eight arrows and died in the woods.
Of course, the result of his losing a war horse was that he hunted down hundreds of cavalrymen one by one, and they all died in the woods.
