Chapter 1764: The national fortune is dispersed
Brach saw that the morale of the generals was magnificent and his heart was much more stable. The Han Empire's behavior of directly using the country as gambling funds really shocked the coach. Sometimes the more he knew, the more he looked forward, and sometimes he couldn't help but look forward on the battlefield.
Leiblali and Sulapril looked at each other and explained that when they saw the hesitation in the other party's eyes, the coach in front of him was unstable, which was a taboo.
"Everyone, according to our drills during this period, we will go to the battlefield first. This battle will make the Han Dynasty understand our strength." Brah looked at the high-spirited generals who gave orders, and the Kushan generals were extremely solemn.
After the general left, Sulapuri finally asked Helirah, "Is that battle really the situation you mentioned?"
"Well, my ancestors specially consulted a lot of Han Dynasty classics and finally determined that the battle was actually we humiliated the Han Dynasty to some extent, and the Han Dynasty launched a counterattack." Helilah was obviously much more certain at this time.
"This is a bit bad. We didn't communicate much with the Han Dynasty, and we responded to the other party's proposal. The only offense I can think of, ha, offense, this word has not been used for many years." Sulapri said with a self-deprecating meaning.
It has always been other small countries that were worried about offending their Kushan Empire. Unexpectedly, their Kushan nobles would reflect on whether they had offended the Han Empire by accident.
"Have we ever done it? In my impression, all our answers to each other are positive, and we are within the prescribed scope of the war book and there is no offense." Brah looked at Sulapuri in confusion and said.
"I'm afraid it's the promised sentence in our war letter, "If you lose, we will retreat thousands of miles west by ourselves." This is probably the only sentence I can think of." Helilah said with a wry smile.
"..." Brah was stunned when he heard this, "Is this their glory?"
"I'm afraid that's it. Only by obtaining things by one's own ability is true. Although when the Han envoy came to our camp, we only regarded those words as jokes, and because we can't control the entire subcontinent at present, we would propose to give half of them to the Han Dynasty, and the Han Dynasty is really playing..." Sulapri said with a little chilling.
Herrirah and Leibreli's faces darkened, both of which were recalling every word Li Xin said at the beginning. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that what Sulapuri said made sense.
"General, I'm afraid the Han Empire's idea was different from us from the beginning." Leiblaley said with a little cold.
"What's wrong, why do you all have this expression?" Brach looked at the three of them in confusion.
"The situation is a bit bad, because the other party did not write the sentence "If the Han army is defeated, from the east of the Baicheng Dynasty, Kushan can be included in the vassal state by force." We completely regarded it as a joke, so that we forgot the implicit conditions." Sulapuri said with a wry smile.
"What's wrong? I'm very embarrassed when I say it halfway. I can't understand what you will say." Brach said speechlessly at the three of them.
"Because we all ignored the other party's words, 'If our army loses, Kushan will hit him in one breath'." Leiblaley smiled bitterly, "We all understand the meaning of this sentence, that is, if the Han army wins, they will hit him in one breath."
"What's wrong with this? What's the problem?" Brach asked back.
"We are joking, and the Han Dynasty is taking it seriously, we will definitely not be able to fight, and the Han Dynasty will definitely fight. If our strength cannot reach a certain limit of the Han Empire, I am afraid the Han Empire will really fight all the way." Helirah shook his head slowly and said.
"The Han Empire clearly gave us this letter. The meaning of using eight countries as gambling funds is to inform us not to use the original words as jokes." Sulapri said with a wry smile, "The Han Empire wants to play the real thing, and this letter is to notify us solemnly again."
"Their original words 'What we need and what we can get' were not jokes, but they really would do it. The meaning of their last letter was more of a final notice issued to us for the sake of their former comrades." Leibrill also spoke with helplessness.
Brach's mind is indeed not as good as these three civil servants in the army, but the three of them have already said so clearly, how could Brach not understand?
"What do you mean is that what Han envoy Li Xin said at that time was not a joke?" Brah said with an ugly expression.
"Under the premise that these are true, I also sent us a letter to me solemnly notify us that I really dare not regard it as a joke." Sulapuri said to Brah.
"Are they crazy?" Brah asked as he looked at Sulapuri and the other three.
"Even if you are crazy people, with such power, this world needs to obey their commands." Helirah said slowly in a choking tone.
"This group of lunatics!" Brach roared in shame.
"Prepare for the war, do your best. We must not lose this battle. The Han envoy couldn't say it clearly." Leiblaley looked at Brah, who was embarrassed and angry, and said in a calm tone.
"You guys go out first!" Brach was as calm as possible, but there was an uncontrollable anger in his voice.
All three nodded, then stepped out, Brach was the only one left in the palace. He looked at the sword in his hand and felt for the first time that glory was more precious than life.
"Are you going to decide the master? Han Dynasty, you are too confident. Even if my Kushan Empire has lost the 100,000 troops across the road, how can it shake the foundation? This time, even if you have the confidence to win, I will break your fangs!" Brah stood up and looked at his sword and said to himself.
"We Kushan are no longer the Great Yuezhi a hundred years ago, and we will no longer be controlled by your Han Empire at will!" Brach waved his sword fiercely, and the stone table in front of him was cut directly in half. The smooth section was enough for Brach to see his hideous face.
Zhang Su and others are now in the final preparations before the war, and they have no idea that a reply from them without losing their momentum would be interpreted by the other party.
However, if Zhang Su and others knew, they would not care. Instead, they would laugh, because only the weak need to figure out what others think, and only the weak will figure out what they originally did not exist from other people's words, while the strong only need to conquer.
It is obvious that with the arrival of the Han army, the Kushan mentality was no longer as stable as before. Moreover, under this tense atmosphere, there was even an over-interpretation phenomenon. This psychological quality has made them look hugely different from the confident and proud Han army.
After all, for the Kushans, this was the only large-scale battle between empires that they had fought in the past century. For the Han Empire, they probably couldn't remember how many times this kind of imperial-level war had been fought.
Before the Three Kingdoms, China's history was to put it bluntly, the history of war.
To put it worse, if you go to my house to find me and I am not at home, then I am fighting on the battlefield; if I am not fighting on the battlefield, then I guess I am on the way to the battlefield. If I am not on the way to the battlefield, then don’t look for me, I am dead.
Are you afraid that the whole nation will have soldiers? Classical militarism, all adult men across the country are soldiers, and all need to serve in the military. This has led to countless wars of 100,000 people in China before the Three Kingdoms.
As for the Three Kingdoms, there was basically no such dynasty, so the scale of the war was reduced.
On the other hand, for Yizhou people born in the Han Empire, even if they had not fought at the 100,000 army level battles before, they were seen too many in military books, and there was basically no pressure. Moreover, these people were all ready to be defeated, so there was no psychological pressure.
This is the biggest gap between the two sides except for the quality of the soldiers. Yan Yan, Zhang Ren, E Huan, Ling Bao, and Deng Xian can eat and drink. Although it is very important to see the day after tomorrow's battle, it is not nervous at all.
Under these two completely different mentalities, two camps with completely different atmospheres were created. However, no matter which army camp was, it seemed extremely terrible to these onlookers. The qualities of the soldiers on both sides and the qualities of generals far exceeded the levels of these kingdoms. The so-called empire is not only powerful on one side, but comprehensively powerful.
"A terrible empire." The prince of the Sumo Kingdom looked at the Han army headquarters led by Deng Xian from a distance. This kind of military appearance and quality were even more terrifying than the guards of their country's royal city. "I wish I could be born in the empire."
"His Highness Aves, do you think, who can win the Kushan or the Han Empire?" A nobleman of the Dasana Dynasty first glanced left and right and found that there was no one else, and then asked in a low voice to the prince of the Sumo Kingdom.
"I can't see it." The prince of Sumo Kingdom was silent for a moment. Even if he could see it, he would not dare to say it. Although he was a prince, whether it was the Kushan Empire or the Han Empire, his father and brother would never avenge him.
On the contrary, if he died at the hands of the Han Empire or the Kushan Empire, his father would at most not be like him, and his brother would probably be excited to have one opponent missing.
As for the ambitions he had before coming here, the prince of the Sumo Kingdom had long abandoned it, because when he saw the military power of both sides, he understood that any of these two routes alone was enough to level their country.
When he had not seen the two imperial military appearances before, he also mocked the ministers of the Wenjia Dynasty as brave and unconscionable. However, after he actually met, he realized that the choice made by the ministers of the Wenjia Dynasty was the most correct choice.
These dynasties may be able to afford to be powerful at other times, but when they replace their opponents with empires, they are actually extremely fragile. The resistance of these countries is almost like a mantis armed stopping the chariot against the empire's strong military power.
Therefore, all the prince of the Sumo Kingdom had suppressed his thoughts before, because he had self-knowledge and knew that he was not qualified to obtain support from any of the two empires.
The so-called "four taels" can make a big difference. First of all, you need to have the power of four taels. If you cannot even meet the most basic conditions, then everything is a false statement.
This almost nutritious dialogue occurs between all the countries that come to watch, but none of the kingdoms dares to clearly say who wins and who loses. Even if each of them has secretly bet on the country they are optimistic about, none of them dares to say it out.
In the game between empires, they are always chess pieces, so how can there be chess pieces to control the chess-holding people? Therefore, all dynasties are very cautious and dare not talk nonsense at all.
However, being cautious between dynasties does not mean that everyone is cautious. The shock caused by this war is not limited to the Indochina Peninsula and the South Asian subcontinent.
The pull between the imperial destiny attracted several uninvited guests. Although these people could not get involved in the battlefield of the imperial destiny, many of them were paying attention to this battle, and some even flew from the north to here from thousands of miles away.
"The national destiny of our country has changed quite strangely recently." Nandou, who was standing in the sky, said to Bei Ming. "Although the national destiny is growing, the tail of the national destiny is much worse than what Zuo Ci said. Have you noticed?"
"No." The Beiming Immortal was too lazy to pay attention to Nandou. Although the two of them had fought against Nanhua and Tong Yuan together before, this did not mean that they had a good relationship.
"Are we the only one here?" Then he continued to ask.
"Look at it for yourself." Bei Ming replied concisely.
"Monkey opposite, who do you think can win?" Nandou asked desperately.
The three monks flew from Kushan, looking at the two immortals standing above the Han Empire, instantly realized that the other party, like them, could not be affected by cause and effect at will.
"The Kushan Empire." The monk clasped his hands together and said in great peace.
"This is not good. I think it is the Han Empire." Nandou narrowed his eyes slightly and said with some malicious intentions. Unlike Zixu and those orthodox immortals in Nanhua, Nandou is the kind of evil immortal who will take action if he disagrees. And as long as he does not get involved in cause and effect, Nandou doesn't mind killing people.
"Whether the Han Empire or the Kushan Empire, just look at it." The monk from the Kushan still said calmly, but Nandou's eyes clearly showed malice.
"Nandou, stop making trouble." Bei Ming suddenly said, "What is your mission?"
Nandou silently restrained the malice he exuded, and Zuo Ci sent a letter to them who were still alive, asking them to help guard the country's fate.
Because of unknown reasons, the destiny of the Han Empire tended to extend towards the sunset, and the lower half was scattered into nine. What's worse is that these nine were still scattering.
