Guan Yu actually guessed Altay's intention, but it was precisely because he guessed that Guan Yu looked gloomy, because the war was going at the opponent's pace, which already meant falling into a trap. From the setting up of the first line of defense
, Guan Yu realized the difference in this man.
"Altay is indeed not bad. He obviously did not take command, but he only adapted to local conditions and displayed the quality and combat effectiveness of his regular army. It is also quite amazing." As Guan Yu's chariot advanced, Liu Bei said slowly.
At the first line of defense, Liu Bei did not see Altay's commanding ability at all, but even so, Liu Bei still recognized Altay's ability. The Han army continued to carry away the light and heavy wounded, as well as the increasing losses, and in the mid-term, Beigui elites entered
During the outbreak stage, the repeated changing of flags are enough to illustrate Altay's ability.
"The opponent is in a defensive battle, and the terrain means we can only fight here." Guan Yu opened his mouth to explain, "It is not a question of strength, but the attacker attacks the defensive position and inevitably falls into the opponent's preparations.
.”
The preparations of the Han army are not insufficient, but as the attacker, there will inevitably be some areas that need to be tested. After all, it is impossible to know all the defenses of the opponent. What's more, even if all the defenses are known, the opponent's on-the-spot performance will also lead to changes in response.
Therefore, offense is always much more difficult than defense.
In the same way, a battle between two empires, or even two civilizations, will take place in all aspects, but if you want to completely defeat and absorb the opponent, the winner must be at least several times stronger than the opponent. Even so, it is inevitable that you will be unable to swallow.
The dilemma of going down.
"I know." Liu Bei nodded, "I just have a deeper understanding of what Zichuan said. We really need to continue to become stronger."
"Sneeze!" Chen Xi from behind touched his nose, and Wu Yi quickly poured a bowl of hot tea for Chen Xi, "No, no, someone is probably talking about me again. Ever since I was contaminated with some strange things,
When someone talks about me, I will react, and even relying on the reaction of my spiritual talent, I can see the other person talking about me."
"Isn't this the unique way of being enlightened by immortals and gods?" Wu Yi smiled and praised it twice without thinking deeply about it, while Chen Xi laughed and laughed when he heard this, and neither party took it seriously.
"By the way, will there be an attack from Guishuang?" Chen Xi asked curiously.
"It's possible, but we have quite a few shield guards left behind and there are a lot of defenses, so it's not a big problem." Wu Yi said confidently.
"That's good. To be honest, I'm a little uneasy. Nothing happened on the front line," Chen Xi thought for a while and said.
"There is nothing wrong with the intelligence that was sent before. I also know the person who sent the intelligence. He Zhen was specially designated to send the intelligence before." Wu Yi comforted him with a smile, but he felt that Chen Xi might not have been on the battlefield for many years, so he was inevitably a little energetic.
It means tight.
"That's good, that's good." Chen Xi felt a lot more relieved after hearing this, but he was still a little wary. He couldn't help but start to think about whether there was something he and others had not considered. After thinking about it,
No omissions were found, and there were always scouts nearby, so there shouldn't be any hidden dangers.
A dozen miles east of the Han camp, the barbarian citizens of the Roman Second Eagle Legion sent over by Severus, under the leadership of a centurion, were conducting the final reorganization of the army.
The avoidance of the battle by these barbarians resulted in the Roman legion, which should have had an absolute advantage, being defeated at the hands of Zhang Ren. Anulinus, the commander of the Second Eagle Banner Legion, was very angry, but there was really nothing he could do to deal with it at the time.
Perennis could handle it, but this was Severus' personal guard, so Perennis kicked the ball to Severus.
Severus was stunned when he received the news, and then became furious. No matter what his thoughts were, the barbarian's ability to successfully rely on military merit to become a citizen was indeed the benefit he released to the European barbarians. This is why most European barbarians abnormally agree with Severus.
Viru's reasons.
After all, Severus clearly opened a loophole for this group of people in the civil system and allowed some barbarians to successfully enter the Senate. More importantly, Severus at least truly treated everyone equally, even including his own
The personal guard also specially recruited a large number of barbarian citizens. It can be said that Severus was extremely benevolent and righteous in one aspect.
However, Severus achieved this level, and the barbarian citizens of the Second Eagle Banner Legion repaid Severus' kindness in this way. Therefore, after recalling the Second Eagle Banner Legion, Severus gave these people a meal.
After being scolded, everyone was shipped to Kushan.
This is the first batch of unpaid aid since the alliance between Rome and Kushan. More importantly, the soldiers in this batch of aid have truly reached the level of the Praetorian Guard, and the average per capita is above the second level of smelting. It can be said that there are 30 million European soldiers.
The essence of barbarian.
Severus' anger was truly transmitted to all the barbarians of the Second Eagle Banner Corps. Although these barbarians longed for the treatment of citizens, they clearly felt a sense of shame when facing Severus. They were Severus.
Severus' personal bodyguards, the Second Eagle Banner Corps, were the personal soldiers selected by Severus, and their behavior on the battlefield disgraced Severus.
Therefore, when Severus scolded them and ordered them to be sent to Kushan, these people did not have any turmoil. Moreover, after such behavior, the European barbarians who were promoted to citizens also corrected their morals.
The atmosphere of avoiding war was completely gone.
And these European barbarians who appeared more than ten miles east of the Han army camp were the barbarian citizens of the Second Eagle Banner Corps who were thrown over by Severus. These people needed to prove that they were qualified citizens with meritorious service and blood.
It needs to be said here that they were originally supposed to fight under the name of Maxinus, but even though they were sent to Kushan by Severus and needed to use their merits and blood to wash away their shame, they were not deprived of it.
citizenship.
Therefore, all the elites of the proud Second Eagle Legion decisively rejected Maxinus' reorganization, stating that they existed as an independent detachment.
Although Maxinus was unhappy, he did not show it, while Altay saw the thorny nature of this group of people at a glance. After all, they were also the emperor's personal soldiers. Even if they were reprimanded, they could not be proud at all.
, so after Maxinus had no objection, he very considerately allowed this group of people to exist as a detachment.
Although the strength of all the Imperial Guards in Altay is very envious, the power that can be controlled by oneself is considered one's own power. The power that cannot be effectively controlled is best kept away, in case it hurts yourself at any time.
.
Therefore, Altay has never touched this team and given it a high status. However, due to the lack of a leader, it is actually unable to clearly grasp the real strategies and tactics. Generally speaking, it is given face, and it is not as long as it is not discovered.
, then no problem.
After Khosroi left this time, Altay immediately noticed the possibility of the Han army taking action, so he started making arrangements early in the morning. The soldiers of the Second Eagle Banner Corps who had been given face, after others made arrangements, also
Come to Altay to receive the mission.
To be honest, Altay actually has no suitable tasks for this group of people, and they cannot be used as the main battle legion. If they really want to be obedient as the main battle legion, then just leave it to Macrinus. Since they can't really serve as the main battle legion,
If the main battle group is obedient, then it is better to be realistic and give full play to the opponent's subjective initiative.
So Altay gave this group of people the task of bypassing the main battlefield and harassing the Han army's rear.
This task has never stopped because of Kushan. As a result, even if the Han army scouts observed the infiltration of such a team of hundreds of people, they had no intuitive feeling because Kushan had been infiltrating and harassing.
In fact, although the Han army has occupied Balayaga, the towns and villages under Balayaga are not completely controlled by the Han Dynasty. Guishan's infiltration teams appear from time to time, which is very effective in attacking the local people.
Determination to fall to the Han Dynasty.
Even part of the Kushan Hundred Detachment that set out from the south of Balayaga was able to cross the Balayaga front and enter the Brahshas coverage area by relying on their familiarity with the local terrain. This is a very outrageous situation.
Therefore, the scouts of the Han army would not pay too much attention to the hundreds of infiltration teams released by Kushan. After all, these teams had professionals in the rear to deal with them.
After Jia Xu and Dong Zhao sent a blood bead to Zhu Helai, they resumed targeted encirclement and suppression. Therefore, facing this kind of detachment, the Han army's attitude has always been: whether the camp is busy, go hunting if not busy, and if it is busy, go hunting
Notify Jia Xu and Dong Zhao and let them take precautions.
As for the saying that these hunting teams did not enter the Brahasi area, but only caused trouble near Baloyaka, to be honest, the Han army did not care at all, because Baloyaka was only defeated now, and the Han army only needed to stabilize Baloyaka.
, Ayodha, the stronghold on the banks of the Yamuna River, and other locations that the Kushan Hundreds destroyed at will, they cannot be regarded as belonging to the Han Dynasty anyway.
Today, the Han Dynasty and Guishang went to war. Seeing this kind of infiltration team of hundreds of people, the Han army scouts just reported, but Xu Shu received the information, counted the number, and asked someone to notify Jia Xu and Dong Zhao. The remaining
Don't worry about it.
Anyway, there is currently nothing here in Baloyaga, and food is transported by water. There is no need to worry about being cut off. As long as there are no problems with the three major fulcrums, it does not matter if the Kushan infiltration team destroys them casually. After the defeat, the main force of Kushan will be there.
Just pack it up, the Han army can still clearly distinguish the priorities, and this gives the Second Eagle Banner Corps a chance.
In this way, more than 8,000 people successfully gathered at the rear where the Han army returned to the camp.
"What should we do now?" The gathered heads looked at the first centurion. Fortunately, the first centurion must have the ability to command these eight thousand people. Otherwise, just commanding the troops would be a big task.
question.
"We now have three targets to choose from." First Centurion Taurus said with a cautious expression as he looked at the several centurions surrounding him.
As he spoke, Taurus pointed to three locations on the map, "The Han army is currently fighting with the Kushans, so the camp must be empty. We can try to attack the Han army's camp, but we have also fought against the Han army. Even if the Han army's camp is empty,
, I’m afraid it will be difficult for us to defeat them.”
"The second one is to attack Baloyaka. At this time, Baloyaka's defense may not be very strict. Once we can infiltrate, it is not impossible to capture Baloyaka. And once we can capture Baloyaka,
"Jia, block the retreat of the Han army, cut off food and grass, let Guishan win, and all the previous crimes will be washed away." Taurus said while looking at several centurions.
Several centurions all shook their heads. Although the second goal was good, it was even more unreliable than the first one. The first one at least still had some hope. The hope for the second goal was really slim. At least the first one was still possible.
It is said that it depends on strength, but the second one basically relies on the carelessness of the Han army. This is not acceptable.
"The third step is to attack the Han army's stronghold here on the banks of the Yamuna River. This place is one of the three fulcrums of the Han army in Balayaga, but this fulcrum is relatively fragile. Because of the high tides in the rainy season, the Han army's stronghold
It has been affected to some extent. The disadvantage is that this distance is far, and if we attack it, it will be difficult for us to defend." Taurus pointed to the third place and said.
Taurus is confident about attacking the stronghold on the banks of the Yamuna River. Not to mention their avoidance of war, but in terms of strength, the backbone of citizens of the Second Eagle Banner Corps who have been double-smelted per capita is definitely among the major powers in the world.
The forefront of the legion.
If a sneak attack captures the stronghold on the Yamuna River with less than 17,000 people, there is a high probability that it can be won. After all, when Oswin built this stronghold, Szegedi had the intention of plotting against the Han army.
Gedi estimated that he would give up this stronghold in the future, so he chose a very suitable stronghold during the dry season when building it.
After the Han army defeated Oswin, they naturally took this stronghold as their own. As a result, after the rainy season came, the stronghold fell into waterlogging. Although it was not completely destroyed, it still caused considerable impact.
To be honest, if it is completely destroyed, the Han army will be rebuilt, but it will only be in a waterlogged state. If the Han army chooses another place to move, it will be somewhat unworthy. Therefore, Li Tong and Sun Kang who are currently stationed there are somewhat uncomfortable. Day by day
We are studying how to solve waterlogging.
Therefore, if you seize the opportunity and attack in a wave, the probability of defeating it is not small. But again, if you defeat it, you will not be able to defend it. If you insist on holding on, you will not be able to support Kushan's reinforcements.
After all, the main force of the Han army came back for reinforcements, let alone the barbarian citizens of the Second Eagle Banner Corps. Even if Anulinus drove the Eagle Banner and brought all the Second Parthia over, it would be a dead end!
The only thing that can hold on is Balayaga City. If this group of people can capture Balayaga City, it is more or less possible to rely on the supermodel Yunqi to hold on until Altai leads the main force to kill the Han army when they return for reinforcements.
Relying on temporary strongholds to support the main force of the Han army's return reinforcements, the tenth knight will do the trick!
