Chapter 895
The way out
Looking at Lombard, who obviously wanted to say something more, Luo Ji threw away his hand in frustration.
"Okay, just wait patiently. You idiot, if you get lost again and don't know where you went, you might cause trouble for me next time."
After hearing these words, Lombard suddenly showed an embarrassed look.
The hundreds of years old face turned red at this moment.
Totally impossible to refute.
Because the fact is that since he led his troops to attack the eastern border of Wanjie Civilization a few years ago, he has lost his way. Until now, he has not been able to find his way back to Kamikaze City...
After casually dismissing Lombard, the casualty statistics of this battle were delivered to Luo Ji at sunset.
The main cavalry units under Baize and Burigude fought several times with the main cavalry units of the Qarhan Grassland Kingdom.
After this battle, nearly 1,600 cavalry were lost.
Plus earlier losses.
The total number is estimated to be over three thousand riders…
Luo Ji, who came to this conclusion, felt his heart bleed.
Thanks to the victory of this battle, he also captured many war horses from the cities of the Qarhan Prairie Kingdom.
Otherwise, the loss of more than 3,000 cavalry would be enough to cause a huge blow to the development of his civilizational cavalry force.
It would probably make him feel so painful that he would roll around on the ground.
As for the infantry troops, the total number of troops responsible for siege on the front line was more than 3,000.
In the previous battle, a certain troop that suddenly rushed out to get in the way caused him a lot of casualties.
As a result, the military strength was reduced by half.
That is, more than 1,500 infantry were lost.
At the same time, most of the logistics troops responsible for escorting grain and grass were lost due to the sudden attack by the prairie cavalry.
Therefore, the total loss of troops on the infantry side was more than two thousand.
After confirming the casualties, Luo Ji exhaled a long and heavy breath.
At the same time, I swore secretly in my heart.
After this round of fighting, he will definitely need to take a few years of rest.
Years of battles have almost exhausted all the military strength of his civilizations.
It’s really troublesome to occupy the Central Plains region, which is the richest and largest area of resources, with enemies on all sides!
It's simply uneasy.
But now that it's better, he'll beat them all up one by one. He wants to see who else is dishonest and dares to bring trouble on him again!
Now turn the view to the other side.
After quickly escaping the city with a group of people, Si Qin did not dare to stop along the way.
According to the mind of the conquering king, the opponent must be able to guess that he is commanding the battle in the city.
In other words, troops will definitely be sent to hunt him down.
Once caught, there is only one way to die.
Even for the sake of his own life, he had to run away desperately.
Although the wolf cavalry responsible for chasing and killing were far more flexible than regular cavalry units, when sprinting at full speed on such vast terrain, their durability and sprint speed were slightly inferior to regular cavalry units.
This situation led Li Min to pursue him for days, but he failed to catch up with Si Qin who had escaped.
Even the distance between the two parties has become wider and wider as time goes by.
At the same time, Siqin did not escape in the direction of his main city this time.
After this battle, he was completely defeated.
The military strength of the Qarhan Grassland Kingdom has also been reduced to almost 10%.
In other words, if he runs back to the main city now, he is just waiting to die and cannot hold it at all.
And how could someone like Si Qin be willing to wait for death?
The Chaerhan Grassland Kingdom could not be saved, but he had already laid out his escape route in advance.
I just hope he will make a comeback one day!
After days of running around, he led his soldiers to a hidden camp far away from the main city.
In this camp, he arranged for the one-eyed dragon Buhe to lead a team of trustworthy people to meet them.
At the same time, there is also a lot of food and weapons and equipment stored in the camp.
It can be said to be the capital for his future comeback.
Entering the camp, Siqin breathed a sigh of relief and could no longer hide the fatigue on his face.
After the battle with the civilizations of all realms, he can be said to have returned to before liberation.
The situation may even be worse than it was initially.
"Where is Bazar? Has he arrived?"
Excluding the generals who were later recruited from various other tribes, Bazar and One-Eyed Dragon Buhe were his confidants.
Therefore, Siqin had already warned Bazar before the war started.
Once defeated, evacuate immediately.
Don't go back to the main city. After getting rid of the pursuers, go directly to this camp.
Faced with this problem, the one-eyed dragon Buhe shook his head.
"not yet."
After hearing this, Siqin was not too pessimistic.
Calm down and think about it, even he has just arrived at this camp.
According to Bazar's speed, arriving a few days later than him is completely normal.
That night, a heavy rain swept directly over this grassland.
Siqin, who was sleeping in the camp, could clearly feel the uncomfortable dampness.
But my heart felt more at ease.
Because he knew that the heavy rain could wash away their traces.
The location of this camp is also very secluded.
In this way, his situation will be safer.
He even wanted to let the heavy rain last for a few more days.
It's best to wait a few days and nights to wash away all traces.
However, it seems that God does not intend to be so cooperative.
At dawn the next day, the rain stopped.
At the same time, on the other side, the army led by Luo Ji personally also officially entered the main city of the Qarhan Grassland Kingdom.
Not surprisingly, Si Qin is obviously not here.
But he had other gains.
And it’s still a very big gain!
In order to prevent the previous cities from falling, cattle, sheep, horses and other resources fell into the hands of the civilized armies of all realms.
Therefore, Siqin concentrated all resources on the main city before the war started.
There are also some resources that are hidden from the public eye and quietly sent to the camp as a retreat.
It is estimated that even Si Qin himself did not expect that he would be defeated so completely.
He didn't even have time to come back and deal with these resources.
It can be said that everything is cheaper now Luo Ji.
Luo Ji was naturally overjoyed with this huge harvest.
After all, up to this point in this expedition, apart from eliminating the potential threat of the Chaerhan Prairie Country, he really hasn't seen any substantial benefits.
In the past few months, a food crisis has been breaking out in the Qarhan Grassland.
But as a ruler, Si Qin obviously could not kill cattle and sheep to feed the common people and slaves.
This resulted in an astonishingly large number of livestock within the main city.
The origin of these livestock is obviously that Siqin snatched them from the grassland tribes he annexed.
It can be said to be the ‘fruits’ of his hard work over the years.
Nowadays, all these thousands of cattle and sheep can be said to be cheap for Luo Ji.
The astonishing number shocked Luo Ji at the time.
That Siqin was really diligent in sweeping the entire grassland.
In a few years, he actually accumulated such a net worth.
Even Luo Ji suddenly felt like he was getting rich.
