"Zijian, if we don't brag, we won't be slanderous. You can speak with your conscience." Guo Bang picked up a piece of meat, dipped it in some strange sauce, threw it into his mouth, then frowned and looked at Hua Xiong and said.
Hua Xiong sighed after hearing this. Although what Guo Bang said was unpleasant, it was the truth.
"Isn't that right? Although our brothers can fight, this is all based on the experience accumulated in hundreds of battles for the rest of our lives. Who can learn it through study? What a waste of time!" Guo Bang pointed his chopsticks at the pot.
Derou said angrily, "That's enough for Mang. I'll give you a bunch of abilities, will you use them?"
Fan Chou listened happily to Guo Si's words. Yes, although Guo Si is not a thing, the few people present are useless in learning. How about enriching the combat methods? What enrichment! The combined IQ of the four of them is probably only
Two hundred and five, learn from others to enrich tactics? You are looking for death!
"First of all, I, Guo Bang, am very self-aware. I can't learn basically anything you ask me to learn. Over the years, I have learned to be reckless and blow the opponent's head off." Guo Bang said proudly, patting his chest, with a look of pride.
An expression of not being ashamed, but proud.
"Yes, yes, me too. Back then, the military advisor taught me step by step, and I studied with reverence. In the end, the military advisor drove me away." Fan Chong agreed with a sigh, "People, you still have to have something.
Self-aware.”
"Anything that the few of us can learn is basically rubbish, hahaha." Guo Bang said with a wild smile, but there was a bit of sadness in this laughter.
Li Jue poured a bowl of wine, didn't even bother to say anything, didn't look at Guo Si, picked up the bowl and touched it with Guo Si, and then drank it down by the ton.
Although it was a bit of a blow to his self-confidence, after so many years, Li Jue also realized that he couldn't learn truly high-level stuff on his own. Their three brothers learned a polarizing array, but in the end they relied on body memory to complete it.
Shit.
"I remember when the military advisor taught me the eight heavenly locks, and he taught me step by step. As a result, all the ants raised by the military advisor Jia learned it, and I haven't even started yet." Hua Xiong picked up the wine bowl and sighed, "A few of us
As expected, you don’t have the talent to learn these things.”
"So don't think about those flashy things, they are just reckless, smash the head of the dog on the other side." Guo Bang slapped the table and said loudly, "If you have time to study those flashy things, exercise more, your body is strong enough, and your will is strong enough.
Wouldn’t it be better to kill him with one punch?”
"Drink this bowl!" When Li Jue heard Guo Si's words, he raised another bowl of wine without saying anything.
"Do it!" The Four Heavenly Kings once again united the front, gave up all kinds of fancy gadgets, and once again returned to the essence. If you can't kill someone, it must be because your muscles are not strong enough and your strength is not enough. If you keep practicing, you will be able to kill him sooner or later!
So Hua Xiong, who had just left the trio and had new ideas, was brought back to the old path by the Xiliang Group again, and rushed onto the established path, deeply believing that this path was very correct and very suitable for him.
the way.
After half a month of adjustments, Cao Cao decided to personally lead the army to Kabul. After all, the combat effectiveness shown by Kushan before was too terrifying. If he did not test it personally, Cao Cao would inevitably misjudge the upcoming war.
Of course, in order to avoid Cao Cao's sudden enthusiasm, Xun Yu and Chen Gong followed him in person this time. Although Chen Gong had a scolding look on his face, Cao Cao never cared about Chen Gong's tone. For Cao Cao, as long as he could do his job.
Seeing the 70,000 soldiers densely packed in the river valley, Cao Cao was in a good mood.
Except for the 30,000 shield guards in these legions, the rest are all regular troops that Cao Cao accumulated not long ago, and the majority of them are dual-talented. With this level of elites gathered together, Cao Cao once again rose to prominence. The ambition to conquer the world, but this idea was later suppressed. The current primary target is Kabul.
"Zixiao, Zixiu, Zhongde, Gongda, I leave Kandahar to you. Although I don't know what Kushan's plot is, as long as we guard Kandahar, our army will naturally advance and retreat freely." Cao Cao faced Cao Ren, Cao Ang and others warned.
"I will definitely live up to Sikong's expectations." Cao Ren said loudly.
"Let's go!" Cao Cao ordered loudly, and then 70,000 soldiers quickly marched in the direction of Kabul in a marching queue, led by the generals of each department.
"The red rabbit is really a good animal." Li Jue and others led more than 20,000 people. They looked at the red rabbit horse under Lu Bu's crotch with emotion. Even after seeing it so many times, Li Jue still felt that it was a good animal. A horse growing into a red rabbit is like seeing a ghost.
"Yes, it is really a good animal." Hua Xiong nodded and said.
"Why do I feel that the logistics preparations for this time are not very large?" Fan Chou glanced at the baggage team and said with some worry.
"Don't worry. After passing Kandahar, the biggest advantage of this route is that the logistics are not as critical as before. The Helmand River can be transported by water, and with this river, it will not appear in the desert anyway. situation." Mao Jie, as the military advisor assisting San Sha and Hua Xiong on the flanks, gave a direct answer.
"But the food and grass seems a bit weak." Fan Chou still argued a few words. After all, he was a veteran on the battlefield. Even if he didn't count, he could make a general judgment based on his years of experience.
"Okay, don't spread rumors." Mao Jie looked at a few people and knew that he couldn't hide it. Unlike Lu Bu and others who didn't care about logistics, San Sha was the kind of general who took care of everything from beginning to end, even Li Jue We have also provided self-funded logistics, so it is basically impossible to hide this kind of thing from these guys.
"Both Wenruo and Gongtai tend to determine in advance the situation of the Kabul area, the Kushan main force and the terrain, instead of having a big battle and directly opening a loophole as Sikong proposed." Mao Jie said rather sadly. Explained to several people.
It goes without saying that the three idiots don't understand the conspiracy, but they are all very experienced in combat.
"It's a test battle." Li Jue sighed and looked at the high morale and the large scale. Counting the more than 20,000 people under his command, there are almost a hundred thousand troops in total. When does a test require such terrifying troops and strength? Already.
However, thinking about the combat effectiveness shown by Guishuang in previous battles with them, Li Jue had to admit that without such strength, if he went to test it, he might be involved, and the Beigui army stationed in Kabul would also be involved. Not vegetarian.
"The war of empires is really not something that ordinary countries can intervene in. This large army alone is enough to destroy small and medium-sized countries. However, such strength is just a trial." Hua Xiong also sighed and said, "War The scale is getting bigger and bigger.”
"There is no way. Both we and our opponents have too strong foundations. The actual troops that both sides can use without losses in the early stage will exceed one million." There was bitterness in the corner of Mao Jie's mouth. Both sides were fighting hard.
It's just about the general's command, it's about the country's strength.
This is also the helpless place for top civil servants like Mao Jie. Compared with their wisdom, their performance on the battlefield, their power struggles, and their many clever strategies, even if they are inferior to Chen Xi, they will definitely not be inferior by much, not to mention that among them there are
There are many people who surpass Chen Xi in this aspect.
However, Chen Xi's perspective was very different from theirs from the very beginning. Chen Xi did not start from the perspective of military strategy, but from the perspective of national strength.
All civil servants put together are not as good as Chen Xi in improving national power. This is the current reality. The limits of other civil servants are the rule of Wenjing, Zhaoxuan Zhongxing, and Mingzhang. However, Chen Xi has truly surpassed these limits and reached
to another level.
This method of almost dimensionality reduction made all the civil servants acquiesce in Chen Xi's status. After waiting for it, they realized a very realistic situation, that is, even their ingenuity and strategy could not decide the battle of the empire.
towards.
What really determines the direction of the war between the empires is not the plans of these people, but the person who sits in Chang'an and provides sufficient weapons and equipment for all soldiers. National strength is the basis for determining the direction of the war, and everything else just reduces the difficulty of the war.
It's just a means of degree.
Without these means, an empire with strong national power will still win, but without sufficient national power, even if these means are used, it can only survive.
The longer the Imperial War begins, the clearer the top civil servants' understanding of this aspect becomes, and the clearer their positioning becomes.
"Whatever, no matter how big the scale is, if you kill some people today and some tomorrow, the problem will be solved sooner or later." Li Jue said these murderous words in a very traditional and realistic tone.
"Let's go, there are so many people this time, someone can help us hold the opponent's head, and the rest can just let go and kill." Hua Xiong waved his new version of the sword, and Hua Xiong's failure last time
It is also a very unbearable fact.
In Kabul, Oswin had begun to urgently strengthen the defense line, and had a battle with Li Jue and others. After making some gains, Oswin retreated from Kabul.
"The Han army is attacking." Kapil handed Oswin the intelligence collected by his scouts.
"Really? How many troops?" Oswin said with squinted eyes.
"It looks like nine to one hundred thousand." Kapil said solemnly.
"This really looks down on us." Oswin said with a smile.
"How about relying on the terrain to defend with all your strength, wait for the Han army to have a flaw, and then launch a defensive counterattack?" Kapil looked at Oswin and gave the correct suggestion.
"I think so too." Oswin nodded and said, "The leader of the Han army seems to be a little over the top, but this is good news for us."
"It may not be because of the superiors." Kapil shook his head and said, "For the Han army, maybe this is just a routine test."
