Barak, who was barely able to control the situation, could not care about anything else at this time. The Khyber Pass must not be lost. Even if the entire army is annihilated here, this pass must not be lost. This place almost represents the Great Yueshi.
's lifeline.
That's right, it's not Kushan, it's the Great Yuezhi. People like Balak are very clear in their minds that the Great Yuezhi and the Brahmin are from two different walks of life, and he has always followed the will of the Great Yuezhi.
Barak roared and rushed in the direction of the trap. There was nothing to say. The trap, which was originally low-key and moderate, pretending that his combat effectiveness was insufficient, showed his brilliance. Even Barak understood that this opponent was most likely the most important to him.
of combat power.
Similarly, after the blessing of the empire's will, the side of the enemy is no longer as low-key as before. Before, it was just waiting for the opponent's vital points to be exposed and preparing to give the opponent a fatal blow.
However, now that the situation has reached this point, there is no point in hiding oneself. The dazzling brilliance before has already exposed everything that can be exposed. In this case, why are you pretending! Come on, fight him! Hard power and other things have never been involved in the battle.
None are lacking.
With this idea in mind, the trap directly mobilized all its power, and based on the will of the empire, it exerted an almost complete military soul. The defense lines of both sides that were originally in a stalemate, faced with the sudden outbreak of the trap, exploded directly at the location of the trap.
Come.
That's right, it exploded, completely different from the previous situation where the Han Dynasty was struggling to move forward during the stalemate.
After the will of the empire was added, Gao Shun clearly felt the rapid sublimation of his own will, and decisively spread the entire trapped camp horizontally in a way that was not in line with normal military operations.
Then, at the moment when the Kushan soldiers went berserk and attacked, they released their restraints on the trapped camp. At that moment, the entire army relied on the will of the empire and the soul of the army to ascend to a higher level. Relying on the control ability that far exceeded that of a normal army,
The moment that power arose, the soldiers trapped in the camp directly used it.
There is no need to consume too much military soul power, it is enough to exert the greatest strength at the most suitable time, and the soldiers who successfully captured that moment increased their strength to the current extreme, two thousand
The famous Lianqi Chenggang suddenly appeared!
At that moment, the Kushan soldiers who fought head-on with the trapped soldiers, even though they relied on the blessing that was almost equivalent to the will of the empire to reach the level of dual talents, faced the sudden outbreak of the trapped soldiers, they were caught off guard and fell down nearly a thousand soldiers.
Man, after all, the height of being trapped in the formation at that moment has reached the peak of Qi training.
Naturally, with just this one blow, a large area of the Kushan Army's front line was destroyed. There were no particularly flashy movements, no particularly gorgeous light and shadow, just a simple and irresistible blow.
The entire first line of defense in Kushan was directly blown into two sections by the enemy formation. Even if there was a defensive line and a Chinese army defense line, Barak's scalp was numb when faced with the terrifying offensive of the enemy army.
Even if they don't understand what the enemy has done, everyone knows what level of elites they are that can easily kill a large group of dual-talented troops.
There is no doubt that this is also a military soul army.
What's more important is that even if it is the Army Soul Legion, this is the first time that Barak has seen such a terrifying offensive. No matter what, this legion must be blocked. Once this legion cannot be blocked...
However, before Barak led his bodyguards to block the enemy formation, the front line facing the cavalry on the other side was also blown into several pieces. There was no such violent output as the enemy force that could tear down a whole front in an instant, but it was not easy for the iron cavalry to fight with all their strength.
generation.
Then the Super Heavy Step and the Wolf Cavalry quickly opened up the situation, and in an instant, the originally stable outer front became in disarray.
"Damn it!" Ballack retorted angrily, quite feeling as if he was determined to kill the enemy but was helpless. However, this anger only remained in Ballack's heart for a moment, and Ballack once again regained the poise and hard-working control that only a general can have.
The soldiers contracted a second time and thickened the defense line.
At the same time, Barak's originally planned containment action also decisively gave up. This was no longer a gap in strengthening the army along the way, but a comprehensive gap in quality.
Compared with Arvind and Rahul, Barak is very, very far behind, and his talent and qualifications are far inferior. He is even lacking compared to Fulward, Niranjan and others.
But compared to those before him, Barak, who was selected to station at the Khyber Pass, had a special quality that none of them had, that is, he would not despair no matter what, and would be carried away by anger no matter what.
Although this guy often speaks with anger, he will not transfer this anger into his responsibilities at any time. He will always be in the calmest state when working, and will never be
Your own irritation and anger really affect your command.
No matter when, he will never fall into despair. Even if his opponent is ten times stronger than him, he will definitely squeeze himself every second before death in the hope of finding a way out. He is one of the very few generals who are more dangerous and calmer.
[The blocking defense line of the former army is hopeless. The opponent's offensive is absolutely unstoppable. Even if it shrinks its formation and conducts a comprehensive defense with a well-organized square formation, it is impossible to block the opponent's offensive for a long time.] We are working hard to shrink the defense line and adjust the formation.
Barak, who had strengthened his defense, quickly judged the situation, and it was very bad!
[If it cannot be stopped, if it is compressed again and becomes a dense phalanx, the Han army can be blocked by the strength of the troops and the defense provided by the dense formation. However, if the formation is compressed again, the Khyber Pass cannot be completely locked.
】Barak has completely entered a state of indifference, carefully assessing the situation, with thin beads of sweat sliding down his forehead and neck.
After the Han army's all-out offensive was launched, the situation quickly opened up. If Barak could block the Han army's offensive by shrinking the defense line once at the beginning, then the troop density provided by the second defense line contraction is no longer enough.
Stabilizing the situation, even going too far, cannot even achieve the corresponding effect by buying time.
"Barak, shrink the defense line!" Zasali, who desperately held on to the iron cavalry, roared in the direction of Barak. The elite talent of the camel rider was stimulated to almost the limit, and he tightly grabbed the Xiliang iron cavalry, who was the soul of the military.
To be honest, Zasali didn't know that he and his Camel Riders were so capable of fighting head-on with a military spirit army. Even if they were completely at a disadvantage, being able to fight to the death and hold the opponent back was beyond what ordinary dual talents could do.
things to come.
Barak glanced at Zasali without saying anything, and commanded the Guards to quickly deploy defenses in front of the attacking front. As for the so-called compressed front, if there were 80,000 troops now, Barak would definitely compress the front, but there is no such thing now!
There were not so many troops to forcibly compress the defense line, which meant that a full contraction would lead to gaps in the Khyber Pass. Balak, who had been wandering around the periphery to harvest quickly, knew exactly how fast the pure white cavalry of the Han army was.
Once a gap is exposed in the Khyber Pass due to the compressed defense line, and the pure white cavalry can attack in, it will basically be over. The situation may be slightly different from the opponent's attack, but in terms of destructive power, it will be different from the opponent's attack directly.
There's not much difference at all.
After all, Barak could clearly see how fast that pure white legion was during the previous night attack. Even if there was no reference object to determine the accurate speed, Barak felt that the pure white legion was just based on intuition.
The cavalry is more than twice as fast as the Yueshi's fastest royal ranger, and it is very likely that the previous speed was not the opponent's limit!
With such a high-speed cavalry, would Balak dare to make way for a gap? Not to mention that if he opened the gap now, it would probably be impossible to block it. Even with all his troops, Balak would never dare to make a gap.
Beyond the Khyber Pass lies a vast plain, the plains of the South Asian subcontinent, and the essence of Kushan. You can only imagine how much damage a cavalry that is too fast to catch up can cause if it goes in.
Such a cavalry attack does not need to attack the city, but only needs to destroy it. Even if the Kushan family has a great business and abundant food production, a wave of destruction will be enough to make Kushan vomit three liters of blood.
After all, none of the scouts can move at a speed that can match it. If they want to limit it, they can only rely on wisdom and strategy to encircle them. But even if the encirclement can be successful, the time spent during the encirclement is enough for this pure white army to create enough achievements before it is finished.
Therefore, Barak knew that as long as he shrank the front line, changed the original scattered defensive formation into a dense phalanx, and compressed the defense line back to the position where the Khyber Pass was close to the two mountain passes, Kushan's losses would be greatly reduced.
, but knowing the overall situation, he knew very well that he absolutely could not do this.
If they fully shrink to the pass, it is very likely that a wave of Han troops will attack. The concavity of the defense line will lead to gaps in the border. The Han troops will rush directly from the Yanbian area. Once they break through, it will be like a fish entering the sea and a dragon rising to the sky.
Even if the Kushan army returns to encircle and suppress them with all their strength later, even if they can win, they will still spend more than ten times as much force.
After thinking about all this, Ballack completely gave up the strategy of shrinking the formation. He would rather lose time and wait for possible rescue than shrinking the formation and gamble on the so-called chance of victory.
The former is bound to fail, but if it can buy one to two hours, even if the military soul is fully activated, it is impossible to defeat the tens of thousands of pairs of talents in comprehensive defense in a very short period of time.
The latter is very likely to be able to preserve the elite soldiers in the Khyber Pass, but it is also possible to push the entire Kushan situation into an irreversible situation.
Of course, the possibility of the latter was not high, but from Barak's point of view, he still chose the first option without hesitation.
