Chapter 955 Hidden danger and beheading(1/2)
"It's just that it will probably take a few hours for this flame to go out. By then, Bei Gui will probably be far away." Guo Jia said with a look of displeasure.
"Can't you make some rain?" Guo Jia turned to look at Xun Yu and asked.
Although he doesn't want to, he has to admit that Xun Yu is only less powerful than Chen Xi in terms of energy.
"It's useless. There are only a few clouds in the sky, and even rain will not help!"
Forcibly changing the sky is a method that only Chen Xi and Jiuding can use to control the country.
"Don't worry, give Xia Houyuan some confidence. If nothing else, there is no problem in stopping those people. What's more, if the infantry can run for an hour, the cavalry may not take more than a quarter of an hour." Cheng Yu glanced at the tigers and leopards on the horizon.
Qiu said.
Guo Jia also looked back and had to admit that there was no falsehood in what he said. The cavalry had a great advantage over the infantry.
It was really possible to catch up with the infantry regiment that had run away for several hours in a few quarters of an hour, especially since there was only one road in this place.
When the enemy is behind and the elite cavalry catch up, they will be able to capture more or less.
"Look at it, our goal is not to simply win, but to create a super high exchange ratio with extremely low losses, so that our side can gain morale that far exceeds that of the opponent, and yet we can force a march to appear in the Khyber Pass
, relying on the peak state to penetrate there."
Chen Gongtou said without replying, he had calculated everything as much as possible.
After years of accumulated wisdom is fully unleashed, it is very powerful.
"You think we can't defeat him?" Guo Jia looked at Chen Gong in confusion and said.
"Guess why General Hua didn't show up as planned?" Chen Gong shook his head and said. This was just a guess on his part, and now it has basically been confirmed.
"What do you mean, stationing troops in the mountains? And a large number of troops?" Guo Jia instantly understood what Chen Gong meant, and he introduced the old and brought out the new, understanding the test they would face next.
Others also looked at Chen Gong in surprise. This idea was quite bold.
"Oops!" Xun Yu's expression changed, and the expressions of others also changed drastically. This level of intelligence cannot be described even if he only knows the slightest thing.
Not only did they understand the exchange between Chen Gong and Guo Jia, but they also understood what would happen in the future.
"It seems you have thought of it!" Chen Gong shook his head. The battle between the empires is so bizarre. Not only may they not be able to penetrate the Khyber Pass, but they may also be blocked in their retreat.
"I tend to believe that my judgment is true. On the other hand, it means that General Hua should have encountered many military camps when he crossed the mountains." Chen Gong said with a smile, "After all, no matter how deserted this place is, there are still nearly a hundred military camps."
Thousands of square kilometers, there are millions of people crammed into it and you can’t even tell.”
"No wonder the gap between the north and the south is so big..." Xun Yu's face was no longer ugly, but livid.
He finally understood why in the previous battle report, Nan Gui had so many shortcomings, but he could still compete with Bei Gui. It turned out that it was not Nan Gui who was so powerful, nor was Rahul so brave.
Instead, the northern nobles took the southern nobles as farmland, and they did not need to worry about or take care of them. They harvested money and grain regularly to support the soldiers. What a perfect military system.
"If there is no change within the Kushans, there will be huge conflicts between the north and the south. The Brahmins will suppress the people's wisdom internally and curb their own potential. The soldiers of the southern Kushans will lack training, and their good cards are not inferior to those of the Han Dynasty."
Cheng Yu took a breath of cold air, this was a strategy for the country, and it was also a conspiracy.
The South is rotten to the core, while the North has maintained a minimal level of development at the imperial level, and its military has reached a level that is even more outrageous than that of several other empires.
At least several other empires cannot support millions of soldiers who are not engaged in production all year round.
Even when Emperor Ling was in dire straits, he thought of disbanding the Central Guards, and even the Yulin Guards had the idea of disbanding.
A normal empire would never support a large army during periods of non-war, as this would only increase their financial pressure without limit.
Ninety percent of the collapse of the empire came from the collapse of financial pressure and uneven distribution of resources, leading to chaos in the world.
That's what it's all about.
"All the shortcomings we see are the shortcomings of the south, not the shortcomings of the Yuezhi in the north."
Chen Gong sighed. The energy accumulated over the years, and even the help of Jiuding's power when he left, allowed him to understand Guishang.
But it won't help if you understand it. This is real power.
Power is the most valuable thing in the world, and Bei Gui has grasped this point. No matter how hard the South tries, they have a large army in the north and can always bring Nan Gui under their command.
This is why the Great Yuezhi's policy clearly means to indulge the Brahmins, because not only the Brahmins want to swallow up the Great Yuezhi, but the Great Yuezhi is also paralyzing the Brahmins.
I don’t know who noticed this back then, but I have to say that this move was very clever. The Great Yueshi established their capital in Baiwasa, and the main founding force of the northern country returned to the imperial cemetery, and then relied entirely on the Brahmins.
support efforts to develop.
Hold on to the Khyber Pass, prevent the waves from the south from spreading, and quietly develop your internal strength. In a hundred years, the population has doubled several times, even if there is still the hidden danger of the Serbian people. In fact, the development in this hundred years has
The Serbian people have also been assimilated to a certain extent.
It can be said that these hundred years of pretending to be dead have made the Brahmins relax their vigilance. Even if the Beigui threatens and breaks out civil war from time to time, in general the Brahmins have not suffered a fatal blow. This is why the Brahmins are willing to pay food to the Beigui.
Just like the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty, tell those people not to cause trouble in the mountains. Just give you the annual coins. Anyway, the Brahmins who own the Ganges Plain cannot be short of food, and the Da Yueshi rely on
This way silently accumulates strength.
However, just like the final fate of the Song Dynasty, once the Jin Kingdom accumulated enough power, Song Dynasty would die.
However, just like the Jin Kingdom, they did not expect the rise of Mongolia, and the Dayue clan did not expect the participation of the Han Dynasty.
However, the development back then was meaningful after all. Today, there are a large number of soldiers hidden in the Beigui Mountains.
Back then, Beigui had insufficient strength, but now Beigui has realized the idea of establishing the Kushan Wise Ones.
However, even that wise man did not expect that the Brahmins would encounter such a thing as the arrival of God Jialan, so that before the Beigui army could be drawn out, the Nangui had already fallen, and even the Brahmins were willing to be dogs for the imperial power.
And now the large number of soldiers hidden in the Beigui Mountains have become a solid backing for Beigui to resist foreign enemies.
This is a secret that only the Emperor Kushan knows, or in other words, a secret that only the heads of the five great Yuezhi clans know.
However, as Nan Gui fell, more and more people knew about it.
Fulward was one of the very few generals in the north who knew that he had a large number of troops hidden in the ravines.
As the first general to come into contact with the Han Dynasty and have a war, Vesudeva I told Fulard about this matter in order to make Fulward feel at ease and let go of the war.
Although Fulward didn't know the exact number, he did know that there was such a thing, and he knew that the number was very large.
This was also the reason why he risked his life and engaged in a low-intensity fight with Congling. There was nothing more than enough reserve soldiers.
It is cost-effective to train five dead people to train a camel rider.
If you are badly beaten, take it a little longer; if it is no longer so badly, quickly regroup and then look for trouble.
Basically, it was the veterans who led the new recruits every time. Over the past few years, relying on the advantage of the terrain, the number of camel cavalry regiments that were about to be wiped out by Ward has been reduced to three.
Ten thousand people came to play havoc near Congling, causing great trouble to the Han Dynasty.
Even Li Ru didn't have a good solution. Low-intensity war was a fact that both sides acquiesced to. Both sides needed this kind of low-intensity war to train their soldiers. Only on the battlefield can strong soldiers be trained.
This is true even for low-intensity wars.
Therefore, both parties acquiesced, and Li Ru could not use this reason to cut off trade. Cutting off trade would have no benefit to both parties.
It was unrealistic to destroy the Camel Cavalry. Once they entered the desert, it was impossible for the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to catch up with the Camel Cavalry, which made Li Ru extremely annoyed.
However, Lu Zhi quietly collected a group of camels and planned to train a group of camel riders. Even if there was a gap between temporary training and real camel riding, it would at least further curb Fulward's arrogance.
On the Kabul Valley side, Barak led five thousand cavalry with an ugly expression. Another Han army appeared on their retreat path, a Han army that didn't know how it appeared here, but fortunately there were only five thousand people.
But he still didn't want to take action. When he saw the Han army, he felt something was wrong.
"Oops, did they come over the mountains and attack from both front and back?"
"Military spirit?"
In a blink of an eye, Barak understood the reason why Hua Xiong and Fei Xiong appeared here.
"Retreat, retreat quickly!"
Barak ran away without any hesitation. In order to evacuate, he had pulled out all the troops in the mountains and broke them into pieces, scattering the army.
Otherwise, with a large army in hand, he would really have a chance to surround and kill an army soul.
It's a pity that fate has played a trick on them, and the opponent couldn't sneak up on the mountain to attack, and they didn't have the chance to surround and kill the army soul.
"What a prudent general!"
Hua Xiong frowned. They all changed drastically. They did not raise their flags and restrained their momentum. They were just fishing, but the other party was not fooled.
Hua Xiong thought for a while but still didn't pursue him. It wasn't because he was cautious, but because he had gone through mountains and ridges along the way, and everyone else was dumbfounded.
Along the way, he destroyed no less than five barracks, and even a dual-talented barracks.
They were all well-trained soldiers. Although they appeared very suddenly, these Kushan soldiers quickly organized a counterattack.
Although he was no match for Feixiong, the number of people and scale still cost him a lot of time, and no matter how much he accelerated later, it would be of no avail.
It was precisely because of this that he was unable to rush to the battlefield as scheduled, and finally chose to wait and fish here, but unfortunately the fish did not take the bait.
On the other hand, in the scattered legions, a general named Bayat was attacked by tiger and leopard cavalry.
When I was still thinking about how to find the brothers hiding in the mountains, I suddenly heard a continuous roar, and the roar was gradually becoming clearer from the chaos.
Yes, there is the sound of horse hooves, but the sound of horse hooves is too heavy and too fast.
"Hahaha, I found it, the first one!" Xia Houyuan showed a bloodthirsty smile.
With the blessing of divine speed, the speed ratio of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is even half of that of the white horse, and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is a heavily armored cavalry.
