After burning down the camp, the Kushan Army, without food and grass, had only the option of withdrawing to Kushan.
Looking at the rising flames on the whitened horizon behind her, Durga felt aggrieved. The Han army captured the camp overnight, not to mention the miscellaneous soldiers. The enemy just killed no less than two legions.
The elite soldiers of Kushan and more than 270 Kshatriya warriors were refined into a gang. One internal Qi separated general severely injured two internal Qi separated bodies.
What a shame at this time. Durga had carefully calculated the battle loss ratio between the two sides. The Han army suffered less than five thousand casualties, while Guishang's soldiers were probably more than two thousand who died in the direct battle, not counting the soldiers who fled.
Ten thousand, ten thousand of them were elite soldiers under Durga and others.
A loss of this scale directly caused the Kuishang, whose combat power originally surpassed that of the Han Dynasty, to fall to a level basically equivalent to that of the Han Dynasty in Indochina. What's worse is that the raging fire meant that the Kushan army's main reserves were
Food has been sacrificed to heaven.
"Peacock Legion, draw your bows!" Rahul calmly ordered to the Peacock Legion behind him. All the Peacock soldiers immediately opened their bows and arrows and shot at the Han army's position under the command of Rahul.
past.
Different from the dazzling light spots in the darkness, now that the sky is brighter, the crossbow arrows of the Peacock Legion cannot be detected at all during the day if they are not paying attention. When they are noticed, the soldiers have no way to avoid them. One thousand and eight hundred arrows,
When the Han army celebrated their victory, they took away more than a thousand soldiers, and even Zhang Ren was accidentally shot.
"Bastard!" Zhang Ren covered the gap in his waist caused by the heavy crossbow arrow and wanted to turn around and chase Guishang. Unfortunately, he couldn't do this. Even if he went up now, he could only fight a miserable battle.
Even if you win, the ending will not be much better than before.
"Retreat to the camp and hold a banquet to celebrate. Keep watch and scouts behind me!" Zhang Ren cursed angrily, while the others also looked ugly. Although this battle was won, Kushan was fundamentally solved.
The problem was solved, but the Kushan long-distance army that had to be solved at the beginning of the first year of the new year was not solved. The victory was achieved, but it was not perfect.
"Let's go, retreat to the second camp first." Rahul's expression was still calm. The loss in this battle was not small, but it was not unbearable for Rahul. What's more, he would choose after Zhang Ren spoke.
He withdrew directly from the camp without food and grass because he saw an opportunity to win.
The Han army is very strong, but the real combat effectiveness of the Han army is not as good as that of the Kushans. This is their opportunity for the Kushans. Even though they suffered heavy losses in this battle, the Han army almost returned with a great victory. The real strength of the Han army is also unknown.
Kushan did not overwhelm them.
For Rahul, this is proof that he can win. The combat effectiveness of their Kushan soldiers has not been brought into play. They lack a desire for victory, but they will soon have it. The second team established by Rahul
There isn't enough food in the camp.
"Gather your soldiers together, I have something to announce." Rahul said coldly after spending a whole hour bringing the Kushan soldiers back to their camp.
Upon hearing this, Durga, Banerjee and others silently dismissed their personal guards. The personal guards began to form their own organizations among the auxiliary troops. Soon, less than 90,000 people were left.
A corresponding team has emerged.
During this process, Rahul did not say any unnecessary words. He just ordered people to bury pots to cook. After fighting all night, the hungry Kushan soldiers sat with wooden bowls outside the second camp established by Rahul.
They were all a bit silent.
"We lost this battle!" Rahul said, standing among all the soldiers holding the same white rice. "We lost 20,000 soldiers. There must be some of your acquaintances among them."
Rahul's blunt words made the Kushan soldiers feel sad.
"However, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that everyone here is about to die." Rahul said very calmly, which made the Kushan soldiers explode.
"If it were before, I would kill the soldiers who interrupted while I was talking, but no need to do that now. This meal is the last meal I can provide you with. Just before, I asked the peacock to shoot back with arrows.
At the camp, the rations of our 110,000-strong army have been burned by the Han army!" At this moment, all the Kushan soldiers were in a state of panic, but Rahul's voice still reached everyone's ears.
"It took us a month to get here from the Ganges, and it will take the same amount of time to return." Rahul's smooth voice reached the minds of all the soldiers, even the Kushan soldiers who had no idea about this battle.
, the Kushan slave soldiers all felt their hearts tightening.
"When death comes, you never pay attention to the identity of the deceased. You have only two choices now. One is to eat this white rice, go west, and spend a month returning to the bustling area of the Ganges. The other is
After eating this meal, pick up your weapons and follow me to attack the Han camp!" Rahul's cold voice reached the ears of all the soldiers.
"That's it, now eat!" Rahul said indifferently, picked up the rice bowl and started eating.
The Kushan soldiers ate this meal very quietly, without any noise from before. The atmosphere was extremely depressing. All the soldiers were thinking about their next choices, but they had no choice.
Even the always manic Kshatriya warrior army became extremely quiet at this moment. Everyone was quietly eating the white rice in the bowl, not even a grain of rice was left, even if they had rarely had the opportunity before.
Slave soldiers who could eat white rice were still eating nothing at this time.
When Rahul finished eating the rice in the bowl, picked up the bladed gun and walked forward, all the soldiers, from the internal Qi separation body to the ordinary soldiers, whether they were slave soldiers or miscellaneous soldiers, all rubbed their hands.
He followed up with his own weapons.
The nearly 90,000 Kushan soldiers had the same idea for the first time. They had no choice. Now if they went back, they could only die. On the contrary, they had to fight desperately to still have a chance of survival.
In this situation, neither side will accept the other's prisoners, fight or die, and no one wants to feel what it feels like to starve to death.
"We only have one chance, so don't think about leaving anything behind. For us and the Han Dynasty, this battle is either your death or mine, so there is no such thing as retreat. The whole army charges. I will not command you. Your
Each centurion leads his own men to charge!" Rahul ordered coldly, and all the Kushan soldiers tightened their weapons upon hearing this.
It was a very realistic order, and it was also a very effective order. Kuishang was not good at fighting large armies. The result of opening up the battle formation and fighting the Han army was probably to be beaten to death by the Han army. On the contrary,
The whole army has only one goal, regardless of the process, it can be better if it is used freely, but under normal circumstances, no one can do this kind of thing with the condition of the Kushan soldiers.
Rahul didn't have any more words to say, so he picked up his bladed gun and killed him again in the direction he had retreated from before. This time was when the Han army's defense was at its weakest. Likewise, this time was also the most unexpected for everyone.
time point.
Zhang Ren encountered all sorts of bad luck on his way back. Ji Ling, Yan Yan and others were quite concerned about it at first, but later they discovered that this level of bad luck would only embarrass Zhang Ren, not that it would
There was no fatal injury, so the two of them just watched it for fun later on.
Zhang Ren was helpless, but the biggest shadow in his heart did not begin to shrink due to the continuous bad luck. More importantly, Zhang Ren's destiny guidance did not recover at all.
Because of Zhang Ren's problem, the Han army took twice as long to return to the camp as before. However, such a victory did greatly improve the morale of the Han army. Although Zhang Ren's continuous bad luck is indeed a bit embarrassing,
But the banquet after the victory still had to be held.
Liu Zhang's exaggerated rewards brought the Han army camp into a sea of excitement. After Zhang Ren explained a few words, he handed Yan Yan over to take over the camp because he was not feeling well, and he himself needed to find a safe place to relax.
Just stay put and get through this period of bad luck first.
"Hahaha, after returning from a great victory, look, look, how powerful the generals under my command are, don't you have any idea now?" Liu Zhang laughed wildly.
Yuan Shu just rolled his eyes and was too lazy to talk to Liu Zhang, but he recognized the combat effectiveness of the Yizhou Army. Whether it was fighting against the Lianqi Chenggang Army or defeating the Guishang camp, the performance of the Yizhou Army was eye-catching. It was indeed quite impressive.
Very elite.
"Go and give some meat and vegetables to the soldiers stationed outside the camp for defense and lookout. We won a great victory and the whole army will be rewarded. Today we can eat and drink freely!" Liu Zhang couldn't be more excited.
"Lord, I have ordered the food to be delivered, but don't let go of the wine. I have delivered some wine to each garrison point. The work of patrolling and looking out cannot be relaxed at any time, even if we return from a great victory.
, and we can't relax." Yan Yan refused directly. The most cautious person in this camp was Yan Yan, and he would not listen to Liu Zhang's random orders.
"Yeah, okay, what you said makes sense. Indeed, patrolling the camp and looking out are very important, so I'll listen to you." Liu Zhang coughed twice and felt that what Yan Yan said made sense, so he changed the subject and won the battle.
Yes, whatever my general said is correct, "Is there a banquet in the middle camp?"
"The banquets will be held in batches. The banquets will be held by the whole army, unless we completely drive Kushan out of this place and ensure that they cannot come." Yan Yan explained very plainly. In fact, Yan Yan explained
Yan didn't think that Guishang would come. After all, Guishang had just injured them seriously. How could he come on the spot? Yan Yan was just being cautious by nature.
