I've found the way to get through this is to KEEP MOVING.  Just go like hell
straight into the other room, KEEP MOVING picking up what you can, keep
dodging fireballs, and don't let the cacodemons corner you against the walls.
Get cornered, and you're toast.  Keep stalling until there's at least 2 or
3 Barons in there with you too and the doorway is clear, then run like hell
for the first room, get out of sight FAST, and wait until all the noise in
the other room stops.  You'll probably get a Baron, maybe two, and a couple
of cacodemons will trickle through into your room that you'll have to deal
with, but by the time they get done killing each other, you shouldn't have
to kill more than 2 barons and 5-6 cacodemons yourself.
