Alibaba is very decisive. At this critical moment of life and death, his first thought was to abandon the infantry so that the elite cavalry of Huatshuzimo could complete a successful strategic retreat.￥⊙

The "secret weapon" that appears on the battlefield for the first time is always the most terrifying. It is like the armored vehicle that appears on the European battlefield for the first time. The deterrent effect is actually far exceeding the practicality; the iron armored chain horse is actually not without weaknesses. Once someone finds a way to break the enemy, and creates a hook, sickle, spear, and crutch stick, the unlucky one is the Chinese army. What's more, Bai Dong is still so bold. Jin Wushu from later generations only dares to connect the three cavalry, but he comes up with fifty cavalry to form a wave, just to bully you, the Persians are backward in iron smelting technology. Not to mention that they can't think of something like hook, sickle, and can't build it even if they think of it. Even if you bully you for the first time you see such a monster-like cavalry rushing forward, you'll be scared!

Persian cavalry is good at shooting, and it is very good at dealing with the slow-moving Wei Wuzhu square formation. Once it faces a powerful iron armored chain horse, it is immediately at a loss and is hit by several consecutive waves. The military formation is in chaos. Even if Alibaba does not order the withdrawal of troops, these Persian Russians who are only good at shooting the upper hand will turn around. Alibaba actually runs faster. Shortly after the military order is issued, it retreats to the west under the protection of the personal guards. The Chinese iron armored army is too heavy to carry, and it is impossible for his light cavalry army to escape from a long distance. Alibaba is confident that it will reorganize the military formation two hundred miles away. There are still some fighting in this battle...

The Persian infantry, who had lost the cover of the cavalry, was panicked, but even though they cursed, they knew that two short legs would never be able to run through the four horses' hooves. Confronting each other was their last chance; under the sorrowful call of thousands of officials, tens of thousands of Persian infantry pulled out their outer armor and exposed half of their red arms. This was the posture of sacrificing the god of light. According to the rules, they should be naked, but this would be on the battlefield, and it would be too indecent to take off... The Persian Russians, who were ready to sacrifice their mother and lover, were calling their mother and lover's names, ready to fight to the death.

Unexpectedly, the Chinese cavalry did not fight them in close combat at all, but just ran around their military formations quickly, and kept suppressing them with bows and arrows. The terrifying cavalry connected with iron chains just kept rushing to the formation. After a wave of hard work, they immediately untied the chains and went back to the back formation, and then formed iron chains to wait for the next charge... The infantry array without cavalry cover is so hard. Now they are fighting on the grassland. When the arrays face the cavalry in a mess, they will be massacred. So they can only watch the enemy go around and prepare to resist the next fierce impact. The God of Light is on the top, what can they do to resist the charge? Just rely on the wooden shield with iron inlaid in their hand?

The Persian infantry, who was struggling to cope with the fierce impact of the iron armored horses, had to shoot against the Chinese army, but unfortunately this was not Waterloo. The Chinese cavalry equipped with a large number of consecutive crossbows completely solved the problem of aiming at the targeting immediately. The stirrups under their feet made them stand up and shoot at the high point. The persian infantry found that they had to raise their heads and fire, and the enemy was very fast. They were still in front of them, and then they were behind them. It was good that the accuracy of the arrows they shot was 50%. They finally shot the opponent. The inferior arrow clusters could not even shoot through the copper armor of the Chinese soldiers!

It would be fine if I stayed there and was shot as a living target, but someone took the opportunity to fight the autumn wind? From afar, I saw various messy flags on the horizon, some put on a few pieces of sheepskin standing on the wooden poles, some grabbing pheasant feathers on cloth, and some just picking up a wolf skin specimen and jumping out. My Persian mother... There are Shanrong, Bairong, Xiqiang, Dayuezhi, and the raw Qiang who eats raw meat. The Persian army also ate people~ dried meat, but at least they are cooked. These raw Qiang are eaten raw, and it makes people get goosebumps when they think about it.

The Rong people dressed in all kinds of strange clothes seemed to suddenly jump out of the time and space tunnel, and formed an army of tens of thousands. These guys came to fight Qiufeng, and they were waiting for Bai Dong to win and put their strength into pieces. If they could capture a few Persians, they would peel off their skin and make them jerky to taste? Damn, when they remembered these Persians' bad things, the minority brothers were angry. The "Lao Wang next door" was captured by them and made jerky to be revenged. This revenge was avenged!

This time, more than a dozen tribes near the Changhe Valley have come. They are so close to Xijun City. They are bathed in the glory of Baizi every day. They completely believe that Xijun Baizi is the messenger of the God of Light, so they will not consider what if the Chinese are defeated? The men in the tribe have come, and the women have not taken them down! Bai Dong did not stop these enthusiastic ethnic minority brothers. War and politics have always been a pair of brothers in troubled times. They just asked them not to fight when the Persians were not defeated, and wait until the Persians were defeated and fled.

At that time, they just helped harass them. But they did not think that these ethnic minority brothers actually jumped out to fight the tough battle. This was not possible. The Persian infantry had 40,000 people. It was not easy to swallow it in one bite. It had to leave a way out for others to survive. Bai Dong stood up with a wry smile, threw away the iced grapes in his hand, and quickly passed the military order. The power of command in front of the battle was in the hands of Pang Juan and Sun Bin. However, as the commander-in-chief, he could still issue tactical orders, and Sun Bin and Pang Juan were just allowed to execute it.

Soon the Persians discovered that the attack of the Chinese army was gradually slowing down, and the strangely dressed Rong people even turned around and ran to them to dig holes... However, this mining was clearly done in front of them, but it was not like the last time in the Shanqiang tribe. To be precise, it was not a pit, but a tunnel that extended outward, with length and depth. Is it necessary to trap them in this situation?

Anyway, I will be afraid when I see a pit. The Persians have been fighting on hungry for a long time. Now I just want the Chinese army to slow down the attack. No matter what they dig a pit, we just don’t jump.

"The Persians have exhausted their combat power, leaving behind 10,000 Wei Wushu soldiers and the Rong coalition forces of various tribes to trap them. The Yongqi elite soldiers and the main force of Wei Wushu continued to pursue Alibaba. When he fled to the Pamirs, he chased me to the Pamirs. Even if he fled to the horizon, he would chase me!"

After receiving Bai Dong's order, great gods like Pang Juan and Sun Bin all had their eyelids twitched, and they chased them wherever they fled? How to solve the supply along the way? The Chinese are not human-eating Persian legion, and the 30,000 troops were scattered. Just eating and drinking along the way was a big problem. Lao Qin had a lot of food, but no matter how much he had, could he fly over?

"It is easy to solve the problem of grain supply from the army, so the water source will be difficult, especially in the Western Regions. From here, we go to the Chengkou area, the Pamirs, and although there are many water sources, Alibaba's caution will inevitably return along the long river, because this is the route he has taken, and the tribal forces are the most familiar with the geographical environment along the way, and in his eyes it is the safest."

Bai Dong smiled softly: "It's a pity that Alibaba is too anxious. He rushed to Xijun City from the city area. Although many tribes along the way were just frightened by his military power. He didn't have time to truly subdue these tribes. After he was defeated this time, will the Rong brothers along the way still surrender to him? What's more, in addition to these tribes, there are a large number of tribes hidden deep in the grasslands and Gobi. These tribes may not be on the Rong maps of the Western Regions, and Alibaba did not have time to explore and discover them, but they lived in the Western Regions for hundreds or thousands of years... As early as half a year ago, the Bai Family Trading Company and The Fanjia Trading Company, an ally of the Bai family, carefully arranged this line. Within half a year, we promoted the wool economy, taught these tribes to raise sheep, educated their children to read and practice calligraphy, and exchanged money and food for wool, so that they gradually could not leave the help of Lao Qin and China... By the way, there are at least two hundred tribes like this. They are some very weak, and there are only dozens of tribes in the tribe. However, the Baijia Trading Company treats them like the big tribes. Some of their ethnic groups have even joined the Western Regions Branch of the Baijia Trading Company, and they are already our people..."

"You won't even let go of a small tribe with dozens of people? Why are you taking care of them like this?"

Ying Quliang once asked Bai Dong this sentence, but now it was Pang Juan's turn to ask. It was difficult for the general who was rampant in the world to understand Bai Dong's approach. Not to mention a small tribe with dozens of people, even a weak country like Lu and Song State is difficult to put in Pang Juan's eyes.

"Actually, there is nothing, but every time we exchange grain for wool, we will give it more. Now these tribes have endless food, just like Lao Qin's granary, and there is not much grain reserve. It is enough for 30,000 troops to eat for a year or two..." (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better, updated and faster!
