[You will be beaten to death by a group of guys who like this world.] Hua Xiong thought silently in his heart, but after working together with Sima Yi, Hua Xiong would not tell others about Sima Yi's speculation, and even if he said it
, it seems to have no meaning.
"The Iron Cavalry is very strong, but its speed is too slow." Sima Yi pointed to the Iron Cavalry soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield and said, "Not to mention annihilating the opponent, if we can keep chasing, the opponent's losses will be much greater than before, at least for those few guards.
The loss of the army will be half greater."
Hua Xiong was silent for a while without saying anything. He also knew what the shortcomings of the cavalry were, but they had not found a way to eliminate this shortcoming for so many years.
Theoretically speaking, the iron cavalry should be the slowest cavalry. Of course, the combat effectiveness is very powerful. Except for the first auxiliary time, there is basically no unit that cannot be killed.
"Have you never thought about increasing the speed?" Sima Yi asked curiously. He had seen many battles between the cavalry and other legions. They were basically mindless head-to-head encounters, relying on explosively powerful qualities and terrifying output.
, fighting each other when they saw each other, but every time the opponent ran, the cavalry never caught up with them.
From the early Qiang people, Sun Jian, Lu Bu, to the Romans on the Roman battlefield, the cavalry can basically win, but they can't catch up, which is very embarrassing.
"Isn't it the Qiang's business to pursue?" Hua Xiong muttered twice and said. Sima Yi picked his ears. What you said makes so much sense. The question is where are your Qiang cavalry auxiliary troops?
"Normally, your talent branch also has flying bears, top-notch cavalry with super high speed and ignoring the terrain? Is there no way to convert them? Ordinarily, you should be one level higher than flying bears. The upper level has all the features of the next level.
His ability is not surprising." Sima Yi explained to Hua Xiong with some helplessness.
"Flying Bear's ability has become completely different in our hands." Hua Xiong scratched his head and sighed, "Also, as far as our feelings are concerned, we are not one level higher than Flying Bear. Generally speaking,
We are still on the same level, at best our combat effectiveness is stronger."
Sima Yi touched his chin. If this speculation is followed, then the judgments of Zhuge Liang, Chen Gong, Mao Jie and others are basically correct. The Miracle Legion may really not be the right path, or in other words, the Miracle Legion does not have a higher military spirit.
Three talents are one level, but they become stronger in other ways.
But if you insist on being wrong, it will definitely not be considered wrong. The only thing that can be considered wrong on the battlefield is that you are too weak. If you are strong enough, it will definitely not be considered wrong.
"Go back and think of a way. If you can't catch up, it will be a big problem." Sima Yi sighed and said, "Pursuing is also the meaning of a legion."
Hua Xiong waved his hand feebly. They had known for ten years that their legs were short. Li Ru also wanted to solve the problem back then. In the end, Li Ru gave up and used the Qiang cavalry as auxiliary soldiers to supplement the shortcomings of the iron cavalry. As long as the iron cavalry can overwhelm the opponent,
The Qiang cavalry can handle the rest by themselves.
This not only strengthens the cavalry's momentum, but also eliminates the need to change the combat style of the cavalry. It is true that head-on confrontation is a silly way of fighting, but we have to admit that head-on confrontation is the best way for people to see the strength and weakness, and it can also chill the weakest.
a way.
Just like this time, the cavalry kicked five Kuishang guards plus one military spirit. No matter how brutal the fight was, the cavalry finally stood here and won the victory. Then Sima Yi can basically guarantee that in the next one to two years
Within this period, Beigui will never take the initiative to attack.
Even though everyone on the defense knows that sticking to one place is equivalent to waiting for death, the cavalry's style of smashing the opponent's hardest edge into pieces without any bells and whistles, and without even special effects, is enough to completely chill Bei Gui.
"After we return this time, the strategy may change a lot. We may occupy part of the outskirts of Kandahar and rely on the Helmand River for reclamation." Sima Yi looked at Hua Xiong's expression of not listening at all and changed the topic.
.
"Why?" Hua Xiong asked in confusion.
"We didn't dare to reclaim wasteland here before because the deterrence of the five imperial guards and the imperial scepter on the opposite side prevented us from being absolutely sure of stabilizing the front line. We could only endure the long logistics for such a cross-regional operation. In fact,
This kind of battle is very unfriendly to us." Sima Yi said with a helpless expression.
What should I say about the place in Beigui? It's too bad. The Gobi, desert, basin desert, and mountains are roughly composed like this, making logistics and transportation very difficult.
It's even an exaggeration to say that if the farming technology of the Han Dynasty was not really great and could open up an irrigation area in Herat, Cao Cao would have been thinking about how to survive without relying on the rear, and in Herat
After standing firm, the first problem is to cross the Lezistan Desert.
The reason why Beigui gave up Herat before was that the logistics pressure was too great. They traveled from Kandahar to the Lezestan Desert to transport grain and grass. After a wave of transportation, Beigui abandoned Herat. It really couldn't afford it. Now Cao Cao is attacking Kandahar.
I also fell into this kind of pain.
It is too difficult to transport food and grass in the desert. Even if there are capable fortune tellers to help Cao Cao create many resting points in the desert, it is still too difficult.
Therefore, Xun You and others came up with the plan to cross the Lezistan Desert to demonstrate their strength, shake the foundation of Bei Gui, and draw sheep from Bei Gui's sphere of influence.
It's not that they don't understand the difficulty of doing so, but Cao Cao is really not sure of gaining a foothold outside Kandahar. Five Imperial Guards and the Imperial Scepter are equivalent to five three-talented decisive battle units, and the food and grass logistics are available locally. Cao Cao
There's no way I can keep it.
Even if the public and the hydrological research professionals said that it would not be a problem to build a dam outside Kandahar, cut off the Helmand River, and build an irrigation area on the spot to feed millions of people, Cao Cao's problem lies in his own reality
It's because I'm not sure I can stand firm.
Even when the Romans heard the envoys of Vesutiva I say that the imperial scepter under their command could produce multiple three talents, and sent envoys there to actually see this scene, they rarely started to face it seriously.
this country.
That's right, let's face it. Before, Rome really regarded Kushan as a monkey. In the eyes of the Romans, there were only two countries in the world, one was called Rome and the other was called Han Dynasty. The others were all regions, such as the beasts of the world.
The African region, the European region where barbarians were born, and others.
After Kuishang revealed five three-level talents and a military soul, the Romans reluctantly treated Kuishang as an empire. This country still had some goods. After understanding the other party's food output, Rome felt that this country would die sooner or later.
Although it was in the hands of the Han Dynasty, it could still be called one of the best in the world.
After all, the three talents are the ones who stand proudly on top of the world no matter what. Even if Rome insists, if you want to kill the three talents, you still need to come up with the real main force. To be honest, a single legion can use the three talents.
I've really never done that.
The tenth knight at the peak, when he traveled through Rome more than two hundred years ago, faced multiple three talents at the same time. At most, it was only two. Most of the time, Miracle only faced the Praetorian Guards. The three talents were in many cases.
They are always regarded as the vanguard of a certain front and rarely get together.
Only a weird situation like Guishuang would lead to multiple three-talented people squatting together. Of course, it is undeniable that such a deterrent is indeed great. Even Cao Cao's fierce men are quite afraid. However, this kind of fear today
collapsed.
Tactical level laning reverses the strategy.
This is the meaning of Hua Xiong's battle. Originally, he had to run back to Herat after fighting one battle. This time, after Hua Xiong kicked the Beigui Imperial Guards, he no longer had to run back. He was licked by the opponent.
The time it took for the wound to heal was enough for Cao Cao and others to stand firm outside Kandahar.
In the situation of the Han Dynasty, once they have established a firm foothold, have sufficient output, and can mobilize 60,000 shield guards, the next Kandahar offensive and defensive battle will almost only need to be delayed, because there is no need to do any extra work.
Movement and dragging are enough to drag Kandahar to death.
"We should obviously be unable to defeat him, but we actually won." Sima Yi said with emotion.
Five three-level talents appeared opposite them, and they only had two legions. Even if one of them was a miracle, Sima Yi thought that he would probably be killed suddenly. Unexpectedly, the cavalry fought against them and actually won. This was simply incredible.
"Do you think you should have run before?" Hua Xiong suddenly asked.
"Well, if I hadn't remembered that you were running too slow, I would have asked you to retreat and wait until the outer edge of the mountain road to join forces with others to block it." Sima Yi nodded and said, "After all, you are the best we have.
It constitutes an important combat force. If you run away, the loss will be too great if you are left here, and even if we can retreat to the outside of the mountain road, we may not be able to hold it."
Sima Yi really wanted to run away at that time. The news that five three-talented men were coming to kill him was enough for Sima Yi to make the most correct choice. However, he gave up in the end because he couldn't run away.
It would be fine if they were just sharp warriors. The speed of the cavalry was very average. More importantly, if they retreated, if they could not defend the outside of the mountain road, Cao Cao would be greatly affected. Therefore, Sima Yi sighed and chose to risk his life.
.
"We always don't run when we encounter opponents, because we know we can't run away." Hua Xiong said after a while, "But it is precisely because of this style that our cavalry are so powerful."
Sima Yi was silent for a while after hearing this, and then fell into a kind of fear. Is it true that the talent of the cavalry cannot be changed? No, no, no, I'm afraid Li Ru didn't want to change it at all. That guy just ran away on purpose.
?Sorry, if you run away, you will definitely be caught up. If you catch up, you will die even worse. Come on!
Will you risk your life and survive? Just be tough when you meet your opponent? Why are you so strong? Li Ru is a lunatic!
