Kravan's eyes were bloodshot, and he pretended to be crazy. He shot out directly and killed the person standing in front of him. The warm blood directly irritated his face.
Drenched with blood, Klavan also woke up directly from the mad state, but it was already too late.
At the beginning with him as a general, the soldiers of the Kushan Empire were all in confusion. Their swords were not facing the enemy, but slashing at their own robes. Blood spurted out again. Humanity became too fragile at this moment.
Looking at the situation in front of him, Klavan knew that he had made a big mistake, but now that it was like this, he could only make it a mistake and save his life first.
Although Klawan's force was not good enough against Tai Shici, he was killing his own people indiscriminately. After a while, he was at the front and started running towards the city wall along the building cart.
Seeing that Klawan was about to escape successfully, Taishi Ci felt that he was going to be depressed to death. How could he let him run away with such a fat sheep?
Swinging out his halberd, he swept away all the enemies around him. Then he went directly to the city wall, grabbed the bow on the ground, pulled out a wolf-fang arrow and strung it directly.
Klavan had just rushed downstairs to the car, and even after narrowly escaping from death, his heart was beating wildly for no reason, and then he looked directly at the city wall behind him.
"Whoosh."
The war bow was fully drawn, and then he let go suddenly. Like a bolt of lightning, the wolf-fang arrow shot through the void towards Kravan.
This arrow was traveling at an extremely high speed, and Klavan could only watch the arrow getting bigger in his eyes. Finally, it hit him in the face with a loud bang, then passed through his head, nailing him to the ground.
.
Poor Kelawan was considered a big prize among the Kushans, but he was crucified under the Moon City like this, which is somewhat embarrassing.
"Take the general's body and withdraw."
The soldiers who came down from behind could only lift Klavan's body and continue to retreat.
"Mingjin withdraws the troops."
Hariwan, who was watching the battle from a distance, saw this situation and knew that it was impossible to capture Moon City, so he could only give the order to withdraw his troops in frustration.
"Dang Dang Dang."
The crisp sound of ringing gold resounded throughout the world. The besieging Kushan army did not hesitate when they heard the sound and retreated one after another. The Chinese army on the city wall fired trebuchets and bows and arrows, causing greater damage to the retreating enemies.
of casualties.
The Kushan army was defeated thousands of miles away, but the opponent still had a large number of cavalry. Even with this appearance, the established troops did not dare to attack and could only let the opponent leave.
"If Xuanwei's army could kill them now, they would be able to end this battle."
Taishi Ci looked at the retreating direction of the Kushan army from the city wall with a look of reluctance in his eyes. If Ma Chao's 20,000 armored cavalry arrived now and cooperated with the infantry to go out of the city to pursue them, they would definitely be able to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.
"Stop complaining. The Xuanwei Army will come sooner or later. It's no good to be impatient."
Just when Taishi Ci sighed, Jia Xu had already come behind him and patted him directly on the shoulder.
"grown ups."
Hearing this voice, Taishi Ci quickly clasped his fists back, because he had already heard that it was Jia Xu who was coming.
"Okay, how much will we lose in this battle?"
Jia Xu glanced at the city wall that had completely turned into purple, and couldn't help but frown. Although he was known as a poisoner and was used to life and death, he had never seen such a tragic offensive and defensive battle. After all, today
The intensity of the first battle was much higher than the intensity of the previous two battles.
"Roughly calculated, there must be at least 20,000 people. The Tiger Army has lost more than half. If it weren't for the high morale, it might have collapsed now. The same militia also lost more than 10,000 people, but this time the enemy's losses
At least it is more than twice our number, and the enemy may lose about 40,000 soldiers."
Although Taishi Ci did not make detailed statistics, he could still calculate the approximate casualties. Moreover, considering the strength of the Chinese army, the battle loss ratio of one to two was actually very low.
"Well, hurry up and clean the battlefield and count the casualties. Also, let the soldiers rest for a while, and I will arrange for Wudang Feijun to guard the city wall."
Jia Xu's heart ached when he heard that more than half of the Tiger Army had been lost. After all, this was the first-class army of the Chinese Empire. Such a huge loss was enough to show the strength of the Kushan Empire's troops on the opposite side.
"The Tiger Army is okay, it won't be a problem."
Hearing that Jia Xu asked the Tiger Army to go down to rest, Taishi Ci couldn't help but shook his head. The city was where the Tiger Army was, and he didn't want to go down the city wall no matter how heavy the casualties were.
"Okay, I know the strength of the Tiger Army, but now the enemy is also seriously injured and will not attack easily. The purpose of letting the Tiger Army go down to the city to rest is to wait for the enemy to attack next time so that they can fight better.
.”
Jia Xu glanced at Tai Shi Ci, "Tiehanhan, you are so strong, but you didn't look at what happened to your soldiers. They are all exhausted and paralyzed, and they are still on the wall. Once the enemy comes again, they will kill you."
, do you still have the strength to fight?
"In this case, Taishi Ci understands."
Hearing what Jia Xu said, Taishi Ci had nothing to say. After all, he was Yizhou Mu and the commander-in-chief of this battle. It would be somewhat bad if he did not obey orders. Moreover, the Tiger Army was indeed exhausted and needed to rest.
Two days.
"Um."
After Jia Xu ordered Tai Shici, he began to patrol the city wall. Although his boots were soaked with blood, he still walked forward mechanically, because he wanted to visit the place where the Chinese soldiers spilled their blood. This was also his place.
The only thing that can be done.
Soon Wudang Feijun came up to the city, and after the Tiger Army handed over to them, they led the militia down the city wall.
"Who can tell me what the battle on the city wall was like?
Why did the good situation suddenly collapse, and what about the losses this time, who can give me an explanation on the secret passage, and I want to know the casualties of each department."
Hariwan was in the big tent, looking at the sparse generals, and couldn't help but feel angry. In just a few days, so many generals had been lost. That general, the mainstay of the Kushan Empire, was gone just like that.
"General, we have lost 40,000 people in the city wall battle in this battle. If we include the losses from the earthworks sneak attack, we will lose at least 55,000 people in this battle."
When Harriwan asked about the situation, Bloom, who was in charge of the war, frowned, but he still had to say what needed to be said, and the number of casualties must be reported truthfully.
"Fifty-five thousand people, fifty-five thousand people. We only have a few soldiers and horses now. We only have 170,000 soldiers and horses left. We lost fifty-five thousand people in this battle. It's really good, everyone."
The general is really my great minister of Kushan."
Hearing that 55,000 people were lost in this battle, it was hard for him to accept such a huge loss. It was just that there were so many casualties in Richeng, but there were even more injuries here, including those who were attacked by a sneak attack after he left.
Enter's tribe, they defeated more than half of his troops in three battles, which is really good.
"General, calm down."
"General, calm down."
"General, calm down."
When all the generals saw Hariwan being furious, they all knelt on one knee and saluted him and apologized.
"Calm down, how to calm down, you tell me how to calm down, the soldiers of the empire died in a foreign land in vain, the city collapsed, tell me why the city wall collapsed."
Hariwan glanced at everyone and directly aimed his gaze at an infantry general.
"General, it was not me who planned General Kravan. He is 80% responsible for the collapse of the city wall."
Kanta trembled when he heard Hariwan calling his name, and then stood up bravely. After thinking for a while, he could only shift the responsibility to Hariwan, who had died in the battle.
"If General Klavan hadn't suddenly decided to attack the city himself, this battle wouldn't have turned out like this.
If he hadn't retreated first on the city wall, the soldiers wouldn't have collapsed instantly.
Moreover, he has always requested for earthwork work. Facts have proved that the other party has already been prepared to deal with it. If the tunnel is dug in, it will be a dead end.
Therefore, I suggest that Klavan be removed from the general position and beheaded in public."
After Kanter's words, another general stood up and saluted Harivan. Now it seemed that someone must take the blame for this defeat, and the best candidate was Klavan, whom Kanter had introduced.
"Yes, if we can really spend time to make the soil work more flourishing, the three generals will not be suffocated to death in the secret tunnel. I also think General Kravan should bear full responsibility for this failure."
Hal Ci also took a step forward, saluted Hariwan, and agreed with the words of the two generals in front.
"General, I don't think the failure of this battle is entirely due to General Kravan."
Seeing the situation where the wall collapsed and everyone pushed him, Zheda, the general who was close to Klavan, frowned and stepped out.
"Zheda, what do you want to say?"
Harrivan frowned and looked at Zheda. To be honest, Klavan was dead now, so he was indeed the best scapegoat. Everyone would throw the blame away, so what could he do if he was a dead person.
"General, there is no problem with General Krawan's command of this campaign. He used a large army to attack the enemy's city from the front, and then secretly arranged for Wumu Yong and others to sneak attack the city through tunnels. This is how Qi and Zheng should complement each other.
If the enemy hadn't been fully prepared, Wu Muqing, who had sneaked into the city, would have cooperated with the army to capture the city gate.
Moreover, General Klavan was able to take the lead at the last moment and lead the elite siege of the city without fear of life and death. These are all remarkable.
Although he chose to retreat in the end because he was defeated by the enemy, the war situation was indeed unfavorable to us at that time, and he also paid the price with his life.
I think the merits and demerits can be offset, and this defeat should not be borne by a general who is loyal to his country."
Zheda directly expressed his thoughts. He believed that a general who died fighting for the empire should not bear the blame for these crimes. Although he did do something wrong in the end, the dead person is the most important, and it is more or less responsible for others.
Not kind.
"Well, Zheda, you are right."
Zheda's words have to be said to be very conclusive, and not as one-sided as the previous ones, but now he is in urgent need of someone to take charge of the harem. If Klavan is not pushed out, who can bear the responsibility of this crime? Is it him?
Stand up?
After finishing speaking, Hariwan gave Bloom a wink. Although the latter was not the main officer, he was the God of Wealth of the entire army, and he was Hariwan's confidant. Now he urgently needed Bloom to come out and help him make the final decision.
.
"I think that although what General Zheda said is very reasonable, he has overlooked one point. The commander-in-chief of this siege is General Krawan, and before the war started, he also issued a military order. If the city does not break the moon, it is willing to accept military law.
disposal,
Although he has died on the battlefield now, we cannot let him go because he is dead, because even if he comes back alive, he will still die.
Therefore, both emotionally and rationally, Klavan should still be responsible for this war."
Bloom glanced at Harrivan and frowned, but he knew very well what the General meant. If the dead man Klavan did not take the blame, the person most likely to take the blame would be General Harrivan himself.
Therefore, Klavan must bear the blame, but in order to appear democratic, he himself cannot speak, and he has to be the villain.
"Zheda, do you agree with Bloom's words?"
Hearing Bloom's words, Harrivan also nodded. What the other party said was right, and it hit the center. Military law cannot be abandoned just because a person dies. After all, Kravan is a man who issued a military order. Don't say that he is dead now.
Even if he really managed to escape alive, he wouldn't be able to spare him.
"I have nothing to refute General Bloom's words, but I still hope that the General will remember General Kravan who has fought for Kushan for many years and treat his family well."
Zheda glanced at Hariwan. Although he had not expressed an opinion at all and seemed to be quite democratic, he could see in the other person's eyes that he was determined to push Hariwan out.
"Well, I know that no harm will come to my family. Besides, although General Krawan has experienced this battle, his contribution to the empire is obvious to all. I have my own sense of proportion."
Zheda did not continue to insist, and Hariwan also nodded secretly. If Zheda really insisted on protecting Klawan, it would be a bit difficult for him to handle. Now that the other party also agrees, he will not criticize the other party too much.
"Generals, listen to the order. General Kravan's command of the attack is unfavorable. According to the military order he issued before the war, even the body must be dealt with according to military law. All the troops must be gathered in the school grounds and then executed in public."
