    At this time, after several losses, Tiele's coalition army only had 40,000 riders.  Although the Bayagu tribe originally had more than 40,000 horsemen, in order to defend the tribe, Qu Gureng only led less than 30,000 horsemen on the expedition.  Gu Longxian and Bayan were defeated before, and the Bayagu tribe also suffered heavy losses.

    The purpose of this battle is to defeat Huang Mingyuan's infantry regiment in one battle, but another cavalry division of tens of thousands of people cannot be ignored. Even if it cannot be eliminated, it must be contained during the decisive battle on the main battlefield.

    However, chasing the Sui Army's cavalry was a thankless job. Everyone regarded the Sui Army's infantry in Weilu City as soft persimmons and wanted to divide the Sui Army's mountain-sea spoils. Who would want to fight with the main force of the Sui Army?  The cavalry went to fight head-on.

    As the head coach of the coalition forces, Qu Guling was naturally unsuitable, but the others also shrank their heads with displeasure on their faces.

    After all, Qu Gulen is only the leader of the coalition, not the real head of each ministry. Therefore, he cannot completely restrain each ministry, let alone directly ask each ministry to do such selfless work.

    In the end, Qu Gureng ordered that after the Sui army was defeated in this battle, one-third of the spoils should be divided among the tribes chasing the Sui army's cavalry. Driven by such huge profits, everyone enthusiastically signed up.

    Qu Gureng then ordered Servant Yichu to be the commander-in-chief, and led the coalition forces with a total of 15,000 cavalry to continue to pursue the Sui cavalry, mainly to prevent the opponent from suddenly turning back to the main battlefield.

    And Qu Gureng led the main force of more than 20,000 cavalry to advance towards Weilu City.

    In order to dispel Pugu Yichu's hesitation, Qu Gureng also promised in private that as long as Pugu Yichu could contain the Sui army, he would try his best to favor Pugu Yichui when dividing the spoils after the war.  Pu Guyi suffered a loss.

    ??Pu Guyi was overjoyed. He could divide more of the spoils and lead the army independently. What else could he not want to do?

    Around this time, Qu Gureng led his army to the battlefield set by Huang Mingyuan. As expected, as reported by the sentry cavalry, the Sui army only had more than 10,000 cavalry, and many more were deployed around Weilu City to guard.

    Qu Gureng was overjoyed.

    He originally wanted to bypass the Sui army's formation and attack Weilu City directly. However, the Sui army around Weilu City was heavily defended. They dug three trenches around Weilu City and set up an iron caltrop belt.  A trebuchet was set up, and Qu Gureng's troops were not allowed to approach easily at all.

    Qu Gureng then ordered his son Qu Lihu to lead thousands of cavalry to contain the Sui army's cavalry on the mountain and prevent them from rushing down the mountain.  He led the main force to attack the Sui army's main formation.

    Huang Mingyuan saw Qu Gureng and his entourage coming from afar, and knew that the other party could not resist the temptation, so he was determined.

    Huang Mingyuan was not worried that Qu Gureng would attack Weilu City first. In fact, although Weilu City was damaged, its defense was not weak. In addition to thousands of cavalry, there were also Ouyan's infantry and tens of thousands of civilians to assist in the defense.

    Nowadays, the people of the Sui Dynasty are strong and tough. Although they are civilian husbands, many of them are strong men from the north. They can handle swords, ride horses, and kill people. They can easily guard tens of thousands of herdsmen.  At critical moments, relying on city defense can also help the Sui army to fight.  As for trebuchets, crossbows, horses, trenches, and caltrops, they were all standard equipment for the Sui army, and they were designed to make the opponent bleed every last drop of blood.

    As expected by Huang Mingyuan, Qu Gureng launched an attack on the Sui army's infantry formation first.

    Qu Gureng¡¯s troops are the core combat force of the Bayagu tribe. They are well-trained and well-equipped, and are not comparable to ordinary tribal cavalry.

    Braving arrow feathers like locusts, the Tiele cavalry continued to attack the Sui army's formation regardless of life or death. Even though the Sui army had a copper wall and an iron wall for defense, the Tiele cavalry forced the line to become unstable and retreat continuously.

    Seeing that the Tiele people came up, the whole army pressed on them, trying to defeat the Sui army with infinite momentum and shock waves.  Huang Mingyuan ordered Huang Qing and Qin Qiong to lead the wolf-toothed cavalry to attack.

    The two human walls of the front army were broken down by the Bayagu tribe. The people and horses were in chaos, and the Tiele people scrambled to seize the baggage.

    Qin Qiong stood in front of the formation with his mace in hand and shouted: "The barbarians are powerful. If you don't use your body to lure the enemy today, our army will be defeated. If you dare to die, follow me to attack."

    Qin Qiongnai took off his clothes, held his long spear tightly, shouted loudly and fought hard, and rushed towards the Tiele people.  Afterwards, the morale of the knights was greatly boosted, and they all followed closely with swords and guns. Anyone who dared to stand in the way was killed.

    Qin Qiong killed dozens of enemy troops, and the Sui army's infantry formation calmed down.

    Qin Qiongnai led the front army to charge with spears, advancing like a wall, destroying all directions.  His deputy general, Wang Nandi, was in the lead and was shot between the eyebrows by the enemy, causing his face to fall down and cover his eyes.  The king rarely pulled out the arrow, tore off his face, and his face was covered with blood, but he still fought forward.

    The Tiele coalition forces were frightened by the Sui army's bravery and fearless death, and retreated one after another.  The Sui army counterattacked and pushed the front into Tiele's coalition forces.  Qu Gureng saw that other ministries were in mud and could not hold up the wall, and it was impossible to be a leader.??, feeling helpless, he had to lead his troops to reorganize for another fight.

    Seeing that it was really difficult to attack the Sui army's position head-on, Qu Guling decided to use cavalry to attack the Sui army and then attack Weilu City.  When the time comes, the Sui army will be slow to change formations, and there will inevitably be flaws.

    Qu Gureng then dispersed his cavalry in all directions, bypassed the Sui army's formation and rushed towards the mountain.

    As expected, Huang Mingyuan did not change the formation of the hit army, but ordered the cavalry on both wings to block Tiele's coalition forces.  However, the Sui army had few cavalry, which at least made it difficult for them to fight against the enemy.

    Soon, Tiele's coalition forces broke through the trench and feigned an attack on the mountain.  At this time, Ouyan on the mountain immediately ordered hundreds of catapults to be fired at the Tiele Alliance Army. For a moment, missiles rained down, knocking the Tiele Alliance soldiers off their backs and causing their heads to bleed.

    Qu Gureng had no choice but to order his men to retreat.

    Qu Gureng understood that this formation would never be achieved overnight unless he fought with the Sui army to eat the opponent bit by bit.  It's just that time is running out now, and what Qu Gureng lacks most is time.

    At this time, Qu Gureng already had the intention to retreat. He somewhat realized that this was the trap set by Huang Mingyuan. If Huang Mingyuan dared to challenge here, he could not be sure by just patting his head. He must have a back-up plan.

    It¡¯s just that now the ministries are looking at the duck they have got, and they are willing to give up their lives rather than their wealth. How can they be willing to retreat?  In particular, the Hun tribe, the Adui tribe, and the Duoge Lan tribe said that if Qu Gureng retreated, they would save their tribesmen themselves.  Qu Gulen had no choice but to find himself being coerced by the other party.

    At this time, Huang Mingyuan saw Qu Gureng's hesitation, so he waved the flag and ordered Ouyan to kill dozens of Tiele people in public to threaten the Tiele coalition forces.

    "Looking at the hundreds of heads rolling down from the top of the mountain, all three of them were heartbroken. They ignored Qu Gureng's order and had already fought desperately with the Sui army.

    Han Shi'e advised Huang Mingyuan: "If the resisting troops add up, the sad ones will win. If you deliberately provoke the Tiele people, their morale will be high and it will be difficult to check and balance."

    Huang Mingyuan said: "If the Tiele people hadn't been carried away by it, how could they have fought for a long time."

    As expected, the Tiele coalition launched a frantic attack, doubling the pressure on Huang Mingyuan's Chinese army.  Seeing that it was already noon and there was no sign of reinforcements, Han Shier was helpless, so he advised Huang Mingyuan to stay away for the time being.

    "Qianxun (characterized by Han Shi'e), don't worry, I believe in Yu Gong and General Dugu, they will live up to me." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
