"In other words, we lost directly in terms of grand strategy?" Barak said with some pain in his heart. If we lose tactically, we can still make a comeback, but if we lose directly in terms of grand strategy, then we will just wait for death.
"At least based on my current analysis, the Han Dynasty clearly wants to rely on its superior legion combat capabilities to drag us to death." Gumala said with great certainty.
"What should we do?" Zasali was a little panicked. This was directly a problem with the grand strategy.
"I can't help it. Anyway, I wrote down what I estimated and analyzed and sent it to Zhu He. He is the secretary. He is responsible for such strategic issues at the national level, and he is responsible for his policies.
Just do our own thing." Gumala waved her hand casually.
"You were wasted because you never tried your best. Originally, you should have been able to be the same as those top wise men in the past, but now your level is not at your limit." Barak glanced at Gumara and said.
"It's worthless to the extreme. In essence, if everyone does their own thing well, we can solve most of the problems. Since my task is to serve as Barack's adviser, then I will do my best.
That's what needs to be done." Gumala glanced at the two people around her, her face not concealing her determination.
After Balak and Zasali looked at each other, they explained what Gumara meant. The way certain things were handled back then had indeed hurt a lot of people.
"Zasali, you lead the camels and ride to the Chinese army. Even if the Han army is exhausted, I will admit it this time and put all the soldiers on guard." Balak turned to Zasali and said.
"I think it's better for us to save some energy. Now that we are mentally prepared that the war will be protracted, we should now calculate and use the cards in our hands." Gumara suggested casually, not knowing who the other party meant.
Is it Khyber or the entire Kushan situation?
"What should we do if we want to win?" After Zasali left, Balak ordered people to weaken the projection of Infinite Light Tathagata and suddenly said.
"If we want to win..." Gumala was silent, as if he was organizing words. After a while, he sighed and said, "Our defense here is the greatest support. As long as the Khyber Pass does not
The fall is the greatest support for the entire Kushan war situation. As for the rest, there is nothing we can do."
When Barak heard this, he didn't say anything more and just nodded silently. But in fact, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The Civil War was when they were at their strongest, but the methods used in the final armistice failed.
It has blocked the way for too many people and left many hidden dangers.
When Li Tiao ran back with his white horse, he could occasionally even see Kushan scouts running back on both sides of the valley. Some of them withdrew directly into the mountains when they saw the Korean army. When Li Tiao saw this
There aren't too many reactions. Most of them are things that can be solved easily. Just start with them. If you can't solve them easily, just treat them as if you didn't see them.
But even so, just by the number of scouts he saw along the way, Li Tiao knew how much Kuishang had invested in the Khyber Pass. Looking at the crossbow machines and catapults that had been arranged, he knew
How much investment has been made here, this place is really difficult to attack.
Relying on the astonishing speed of Baima Yicong, a group of people hurried back, and it only took ten minutes. However, if they were marching as infantry, this distance would be a bit crazy. It is estimated that they may need to wait until dawn tomorrow to arrive.
Of course, both Zhang Liao and Chen Gong knew this speed, and their choice of this time actually had a special meaning. In any case, the Han army had rested during the day, and it was precisely before the early morning that they were the most tired.
At that time, the Han army appeared at that time. In any case, it was better than the Kushan army in all aspects of physical strength.
"What's the situation in Khyber? Have we suffered any losses?" Zhang Liao asked quickly after Li Tiao led Baima Yicong into the battle again.
"There are no losses. After I noticed the danger over there, I led Baima Yi to turn around. But at a glance, I still saw a lot of things." Li Tiao shook his head and said, and then began to explain himself to Zhang Liao in detail.
What exactly happened before.
"There are nearly a thousand heavy-duty crossbows and a large number of catapults. This is really an exaggeration." Cao Ren, who was listening to the news next to him, felt troubled and couldn't help asking.
"Actually, there are only so many." Li Tiao said solemnly, "There is no doubt that Kushan built the Khyber Pass with the idea of turning it into a fortress. If the terrain was not conducive to building a city, I would have
I think they should build an urn city there, thousands of crossbows, and a large number of catapults. I guess they are all just arranged in this aspect."
As soon as these words came out, all the generals of the Han army looked at each other in confusion. Although they had estimated that Kushan would build the Khyber Pass into a fortress, they were still very overwhelmed when they actually faced it.
"And seeing that the other party is brazen enough to strike with crossbows the moment they see our troops, I guess their material reserves are very strong." Li Tiao added at the end, and the others naturally fell into silence.
"Why are you panicking? Don't you still have me here?" Hua Xiong rode over and decisively took care of everything. "Isn't it just crossbow strikes and catapults? You don't have to worry at all. I will take the lead in the charge when the time comes.
Want to see how many waves they dare to shoot?"
"Can you block the heavy crossbows and catapults?" Zhang Liao looked at Hua Xiong in surprise.
"If it is an attack that is equivalent to a heavy crossbow shot manually, I will be more cautious. After all, such powerful arrows must have poured the energy and spirit of the person who shot the arrow. Even if it can instantly transform kinetic energy, the associated
The effect will also cause great damage, but with a purely mechanical method, we need a stronger strike effect to pierce it." Hua Xiong said it directly without any intention of concealing his military soul ability.
Hua Xiong's Divine Iron Cavalry itself has the ability to be immune to instantaneous attacks such as arrows. The upper limit of this ability is very high, and you don't even need to activate the military soul to possess it.
Hua Xiong originally thought that this ability had no upper limit, but in the end he discovered that the upper limit of this ability was also linked to the military soul.
In the ordinary sense, arrows can actually absorb and transform the power they carry, but when the opponent's arrow strikes to the point of pouring one's own energy and energy into it, it will have an impact on Hua Xiong.
In addition, the elite archers who can usually do this kind of thing are already the top archers themselves, and the power of the arrows they shoot is beyond imagination. Therefore, if the iron cavalry does not have a military soul attached to it, it will directly
If you pick it up with your face, accidents are inevitable.
After all, there is indeed no invincible effect in this world. The military soul's distortion of reality is indeed strong enough, but it does not mean that there are no attacks that are powerful enough to break the distortion.
In fact, after reaching the latter level, it is a matter of sharp spears and strong shields. But fortunately, the defense of the cavalry itself is enough to explode, even if it encounters arrows that can break through the basic effect of the military soul, at that level
It is impossible to nail through the body of the cavalry.
This is also the reason why Hua Xiong directly took over this task. The intensive bed crossbow strikes are fatal to any other legion, but for the Shenqi Cavalry, it is actually a kind of strengthening. Just the bed crossbow strikes are fatal to
The Divine Iron Cavalry is basically useless.
"That's right, the Iron Cavalry is immune to almost all instantaneous attacks. Crossbows and slings are actually a strengthening for the Divine Iron Cavalry." Zhang Liao nodded, and then decisively began to adjust the current positions of each legion. This time the Divine Iron Cavalry must be placed in the center.
"When the time comes, the Divine Iron Cavalry will advance first. I think the opponent will definitely stop attacking after seeing the changes in our army. If they can analyze it, the others will seize the time to rush into the opponent's camp." After Zhang Liao adjusted the configuration of the army,
He raised his head and said something to the others.
"It's just that the opponent's defense is so tight. It's really difficult to deal with it. Well, Cao Zidan, you and I will serve as reserve troops to avoid any accidents and we won't have time to dispatch." Zhang Liao suddenly turned to Cao Zhen and said, and Cao Zhen glanced at
Zhang Liao nodded silently.
After determining the general layout of the Khyber Pass, Zhang Liao once again led the army and began to march towards the Khyber Pass. The Kushan soldiers who had woken up before and looked on guard gradually fell into the trap as time went on.
Tired.
After all, no matter what, the Kushan soldiers who had not slept well in the first place were forced to wake up because of the harassment of the Han army. They just paid it back at the beginning. After waiting to confirm that the Han army had really left, they were originally thinking about the approaching war.
The tense Kushan soldiers instantly felt the fatigue rushing towards them like water.
All Barak could do was to ask the logistics camp to help cook dozens of large pots of refreshing medicinal soup, and then give a bowl to all the soldiers.
Just like what Balak said before, even if the Han army was really exhausted, he would not let the soldiers rest. If they wanted to rest, they might have to wait until daytime, when it was better to conduct reconnaissance.
Therefore, Balak knew that as the Han army retreated, many soldiers would inevitably fall into fatigue due to relaxation. He still issued an order for the entire army to garrison. In order to fulfill this military order, Balak himself supported the long spear and accompanied Kushan.
The soldiers were stationed together.
[Maybe he won’t come. It seems that he fell into the opponent’s trick, but it’s a good thing nothing happened.] At the darkest moment before dawn, after Barak determined the time, he couldn’t help but breathed a sigh of relief.
The Han Dynasty didn't come. No matter what, it was a good show.
However, the next moment, continuous footsteps came from the valley.
