Zhao Yun also nodded. The current situation is like this. What they need now is time. When Yuan Shu's million-strong army arrives, everything will be settled.
"promise."
Zhao Yun was not in a hurry here, but Peshawar, the capital of the Kushan Empire, was also very lively.
"Your Majesty, do we really not send troops to rescue Prince Vespit?"
Darau glanced at Vesudev I who was sitting on the emperor's throne. Daxia was in dire straits now. Although he didn't have many soldiers and horses, he could still get 100,000 soldiers and horses to pass through.
"Darau, I don't need to mention the importance of Daxia Province, but the terrain there is flat and there is no danger at all. The only thing that can resist the Chinese army is the Amu Darya River.
If Khwarezm cannot resist the Chinese offensive, then they can completely bypass the Amu Darya River and go south from Khwarezm to Daxia. By then, the Amu Darya defense line will become a burden.
If Vespit divides his forces between the Amu Darya defense line and Bakrat, he will spread his strength, and in the end, both ends may not be well positioned.
If he ignores the Amu Darya River and defends Bakrat with all his strength, then this place will become an isolated city, and it will be difficult to escape defeat in the face of the Chinese army.
Unless we do our best to support the current situation, no matter whether you send tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, it will only be an extra step, and in the end it will make Peshawar more vulnerable."
Vesudeva I glanced at Darau. The current situation was not a matter of whether he wanted to rescue him or not, but that he could not be rescued at all. As a prince brother, he knew that his strength was not small. If he hadn't been a few years older,
There is really no guarantee that anyone can be the emperor of Kushan.
"However, the defense line in the Hindu Kush Mountains is not as tough as we thought. If Daxia is really lost, it will not be easy to stop the Chinese from going south. Besides, even if we block it in the Hindu Kush Mountains
The Chinese can also bypass here and come from the direction of Gaofu."
Although Vesudev I said this, Daur also frowned. With just a few people, it would be difficult to resist the Chinese army without Daxia.
"The Hindu Kush Mountains are not critical. Just block a few mountain passes. I have sent a large force to support the Gaofu direction. They should be able to resist it."
At this time, Vesudeva I was also scratching his head. The losses in the south were too great. Originally there were almost 100,000 troops, plus the loss of more than 200,000 troops by General Hariwan, this amounted to a loss of more than 300,000 troops.
,
There are only so many people in the Kushan Empire, and now he is constantly increasing his strength like milking a cow. He has no choice but to hope that the Chinese people who have traveled a long distance will be the first to be unable to withstand it, so that they can survive.
"Well, I hope Kushan can survive this disaster."
Daur has nothing to say at this time. He can only hope that God will bless him this time and allow the Kushan Empire to survive this disaster safely.
"Well, if there's nothing else, just go down. I'm tired."
Vesudev I also felt a little tired and waved her hand to signal Daur to go down.
"yes."
Time passed day by day, Huang Zhong's 50,000 cavalry also joined forces with the Nightmare Trebuchet. Looking at the endless convoy, Huang Zhong was speechless for a while. No wonder Yan Liang came first. Such a convoy wanted to
Getting to Bakrat is really a big project.
"Disperse the cavalry, explore the surrounding situation, and be careful of enemy soldiers and horses."
Since he came here, he had to make sure nothing went wrong, so the first step he had to do was to explore the surrounding situation to make sure there were no problems.
"promise."
Soon the 20,000 cavalry dispersed and began to explore the surrounding situation.
Just as Huang Zhong was exploring the surroundings, a cavalry force of 10,000 people was advancing in the direction of Bakrat at high speed.
"Model, this operation is no different than usual. The Chinese army is coming, and our risk factor has increased exponentially. The price originally negotiated is not acceptable."
An armored general among the cavalry looked at the people around him, his eyes full of joking.
"Bankdall, what you're saying is a bit bad. In business, it's not okay for you to just sit back and raise the price."
Model couldn't help but frowned when he heard Bankdahl's words. It was really hard for him to accept that the originally negotiated price was already 30% higher than the original price, and now the price was going to increase again.
"In business, risks and benefits are directly proportional. Originally, the price you mentioned may be much higher than before, but the situation is different now. China and Kuishang are engaged in a national war, and the risk factor has been
It has increased several times, and the extra money I have is just to give my brothers more housing allowance."
Bankdahl shook his head, and there was a trace of solemnity in his eyes. After all, going to Daxia now is a narrow escape. If he had known about it at the beginning, he would never have accepted the deal, but now he can't back out even if he wants to.
I can add money.
"Okay, how much do you want to add?"
Hearing what the other party said, Model had nothing to say. The action this time was the same, but it all depended on how much the other party wanted to add.
"I won't add much. If I add 70%, my brothers' lives will be sold to you."
Bankdahl thought for a moment and directly expressed his inner quotation.
"The bottom line given to me by Master Baqimu is 50%. You have to double it now. I really have no right to decide. When we get to Bakrat City, I believe Master Baqimu will not treat you badly. How about that?"
Now Model was in a bit of a dilemma. He came out with a bottom line. The other party doubled the price, which was beyond his imagination.
"Okay, I believe in Ba Qimu's character, let's wait until Bakrat."
Bankdar also nodded. The reason why he came here was because of the other party's character. The reason why Baqimu was able to do such a big business was that he was willing to give up and be generous, so he believed that the other party would also do it this time.
I won’t treat myself badly.
"Then there's nothing more to say. Let's speed towards Bakrat."
Model had nothing to say. What he had to do now was to bring this ten thousand cavalry safely to Bakrat. Then his mission would be completed.
"Walk."
Bankdar directly ordered 10,000 cavalry to speed up and advance towards Bakrat City.
"Um?
Why are there cavalry here?"
Just as Bankdale was speeding up and running wildly, their movement trajectory was also detected by Huang Zhong's cavalry, but they were also puzzled as to why the cavalry appeared here. This was very abnormal.
"No matter, continue to monitor here, I will report to General Huang Zhong."
Although I don't understand the situation of the cavalry here, they are definitely not one of our own. There is no problem in reporting to Huang Zhong first.
"promise."
After hearing what the team leader said, the scouts around him nodded and continued to monitor the other party, while the team leader galloped on horseback to report the military situation to Huang Zhong.
"You said you found a cavalry force of about 10,000 people?"
Huang Zhong was stunned when he heard the news. He didn't understand why a cavalry force of about 10,000 people appeared here.
"That's right, looking at the direction, we should be heading to Bakrat City."
The scout team leader was also depressed for a while. The sudden appearance of a cavalryman was really confusing.
"No matter who they are, they are definitely not ours. Gather your troops and fight them first."
Although I don’t know who the other person is, I’m sure he’s not one of us. Since he’s not one of us, just fuck him and that’s it.
"promise."
Upon hearing Huang Zhong's order, the 30,000 cavalrymen assembled in an instant and began to run towards the enemy under the leadership of the scout team.
"what sound?"
Huang Zhong came here to kill without restraint. Bankdar, who was heading towards Bakrat, also heard the sound of the war horses and couldn't help but cheer up.
"Listen to this sound, it's not good, there are enemies, prepare to fight."
The general beside Bankdahl suddenly reacted. What else could this sound like if it wasn't the sound of cavalry advancing?
"Ready to fight."
This time Bankdale also realized that he was being watched by others.
Upon hearing Bankdahl's order, the ten thousand cavalrymen immediately prepared for battle. They drew out their scimitars from their waists and cocked their bows and arrows in preparation for battle.
The two cavalry parties moved forward. From the sky, they looked like two waves of running bulls, approaching at great speed.
To say that Bankdahl's group is quite aggressive, they dare to confront each other head-on without investigating the opponent's situation. I have to say that they are really tough.
"Advance the center line, spread the wings, and order the surrounding cavalry to dispatch. I will eat them all at once."
Huang Zhong took a look at the situation in front of him and directly ordered the 30,000-strong army to spread its wings. At the same time, he ordered the cavalry hidden in the surroundings to dispatch in order to eat up the opponent's 10,000 cavalry in one fell swoop.
As the distance between the two sides got closer, each also saw the other's troops.
"No, there are too many people on the other side, prepare to withdraw."
Seeing so many cavalry on the opposite side, Bankdahl was stunned. He originally thought that the other side wouldn't have too many cavalry, but now he saw that he was overthinking and there were too many people on the other side.
"We can't withdraw. If we withdraw now, the enemy will follow us, and we will be finished by then."
Hearing that Bankdahl wanted to retreat, Model was also stunned. He had to retreat before he even started. If he was chased by the opponent, everything would be over.
"The opponent's cavalry is several times ours. What should we do if we don't withdraw now?
charge?"
Bankdahl's face turned black. If he didn't run away now, what should he do? Try his best?
"The brave will win now. The opponent has opened up their formation and wants to devour us. Their midline defense is not strong. Only by breaking through the opponent's defense can we have a way to escape."
Model has encountered this kind of life-and-death situation more than once. Sometimes retreating not only makes it impossible to escape, but may also fall into a place of eternal destruction. Now all they can do is to move forward bravely, charge, and break through the opponent's defense, so that they can gain life.
hope.
"What do you think?"
After hearing Model's words, Bankdahl couldn't help but frown. Time waits for no one. They have to decide immediately whether to fight or flee.
