Jia Xu glanced at Mrs. Zhu Rong. Based on his observation above, General Hariwan should be leading his army to fight against Mrs. Zhu Rong's left army, so he should know the situation of the other party best.
"According to the information provided by the prisoners, the general of the Kushan Empire should have died in the battle, but his body has not been found yet. I have sent soldiers to look for it."
Although the other party's body was not found, it was basically possible to confirm Hariwan's death.
"Well, we must find him. He must be seen alive, and his body must be seen dead. I will be uneasy if he is not dead, and Hariwan's body will be very important to our next actions."
Jia Xu nodded. The importance of Hariwan is self-evident. As the first person in the Kushan Empire's military, his death would be a heavy blow to the Kushan Empire. If he could make use of the other party's body, it would be a great blow to the Kushan Empire.
A trip north would have great benefits.
"No, Zhu Rong understands that I will let the soldiers search every inch of the land to find the enemy general."
Mrs. Zhu Rong saluted Jia Xu and said that she would definitely complete the other party's mission.
"Okay, after clearing the battlefield, immediately lead the army north to the city of Heldvar."
"promise."
The cleaning of the battlefield continued until the evening, when the losses and results of each unit were tallied, and then the army headed north to the city of Heldvar to meet Xu Huang.
"Your Majesty, a telegram from Lord Jia Xu."
Dian Wei took Jia Xu's telegram and came directly to Yuan Shu.
"Now that the telegram is coming, it should be that the war over there is over."
Upon hearing that it was Jia Xu's telegram, Yuan Shu smiled slightly, took the telegram directly from Dian Wei's hand, and began to look at it.
"How about it?"
Looking at Yuan Shu's gradually raised eyebrows, Dian Wei knew that Jia Xu's telegram was definitely good news.
"Jia Xu was indeed Jia Xu. He first moved the tiger away from the mountain to let the Kushan army leave the city. Then he set up an ambush on the edge of the Ganges River. When the Kushan army entered the ambush circle, the entire army attacked. No one of the 100,000 Guishan army was spared.
They were destroyed, and the general of the Kushan Empire was also killed in the battle. Now that Jia Xu and the others have occupied the city of Heldvar, they can then attack Loubaisha, the capital of the Kushan Empire, on a smooth road."
The excitement on Yuan Shu's face was also visible. Jia Xu's victory was extraordinary, and the Kushan Empire was almost ready to be abolished.
"Your Majesty, Master Jia Xu's Southern Route Army has achieved remarkable results. Isn't it time for us to take action here too?"
When Dian Wei heard about Jia Xu's victory, he couldn't help but feel excited.
"Well, it's time. Instruct the whole army to prepare. The whole army will attack early tomorrow morning. We will capture Gaofu as quickly as possible and join forces with Jia Xu at Lou Baisha."
Now that the victory over there has been achieved, it's time to start taking action here.
"promise."
Dian Wei directly clasped his fist at Yuan Shu and spread his order throughout the Chinese army.
At dawn the next day, the Chinese army, like a boundless sea wave, left its city and advanced towards the city of Gambilas, the base of Kushan's defense.
"Your Majesty, the Chinese army is coming to kill us."
When the Chinese army moved, the Kushan army in Gambilas City immediately got the news and came over to report to Vesudeva I.
"China is here. The whole army is preparing for war. I want to see how capable the Chinese army is."
When he heard that the Chinese army was coming, Vesudeva I had nothing to say and directly ordered the army to prepare for battle.
Continuous drums beat in the city of Gambilas, and countless Kushan soldiers climbed onto the city wall, preparing to rely on the city's defense to resist the Chinese attack.
"Your Majesty, it will take some time for Nightmare to arrive."
Tian Feng glanced at Yuan Shu, attacking now, the nightmare trebuchet has not arrived yet, so there is no way to take action.
"I know, so what if there are no nightmares? We didn't rely solely on nightmares to conquer the city before. Let's start the war."
Yuan Shu nodded. He naturally knew that the Nightmare Trebuchet had not arrived, but so what?
Even without the nightmare, he still has millions of troops, and the battle is over.
"promise."
After hearing Yuan Shu's words, Tian Feng also nodded. In this case, let's start the war.
"Beat the drums and attack the city."
"Dong dong dong."
"Dong dong dong."
"Dong dong dong."
Hundreds of war drums were beating at the same time, and dozens of trebuchets immediately began to be assembled outside the army. At the same time, twenty building carts were also built in the army. The first wave of selected soldiers from the Western Regions were also ready and could be used at any time.
Launch an attack.
The Kushan side is also prepared. Although they do not have trebuchets like the Chinese, they do have their own long-range power. The trebuchets that have been assembled are always ready, waiting for the Chinese army to attack before launching a counterattack.
The battle between millions of troops is about to break out. The tense atmosphere has swept across the sky before it even begins, and even the blazing sun has disappeared.
"Reporting to your Majesty, the trebuchet is ready."
Yuan Wei came to Yuan Shu, knelt down on one knee and reported to him that the trebuchet was ready.
"Okay, order the trebuchets to attack the enemy's city wall first, and also order the carts to assemble as soon as possible so as not to hold back the army."
Yuan Shu nodded and directly ordered the trebuchet to attack.
"His Majesty has ordered the trebuchet attack."
Yuan Wei came to the trebuchet troops and directly commanded his trebuchets to attack.
Upon hearing Yuan Wei's order, the newly assembled trebuchet troops immediately began to take action, loading heavy bombs into the trebuchets one by one, and then began to adjust the angle and strength.
"Listen to my military order and let go."
Yuan Wei gave an order, and dozens of heavy bullets soared into the sky and flew towards the wall of Gambilas City.
"The enemy's trebuchets have been launched and are ready to intercept the iron net."
The arrival of Vesudeva I not only brought troops and horses, but also the most cutting-edge technology and the richest resources of Kushan.
According to the characteristics of the Chinese Empire's trebuchets, the top scholars under Vesudeva I also came up with their own solutions. They directly built numerous iron nets through royal craftsmen. These iron nets can be used to most effectively control the Chinese trebuchets.
Defense.
For a time, a dense iron net was erected on top of the Kushan City to provide the most effective protection for the soldiers behind them.
"Peng."
"Peng."
"Peng."
Heavy bombs hit the interception net on the city wall one after another. Apart from making a rumble, they failed to break through the opponent's defense at all.
"Um?"
Seeing that the first wave of heavy bombs had no effect at all, Yuan Wei was also stunned. This was a situation he had never encountered before.
"Change to the net-breaking bombs and continue the attack."
Now that the enemy is on guard, let's see whether your shield is stronger or your spear is sharper.
Each round of net-breaking bullets soared into the sky, flying across the void directly towards the head of Gambilas City.
The net-breaking bullets full of blades came into close contact with the intercepting iron net. This time, the invincible net-breaking bullets had an opponent. A small part was directly bounced away, and most of them were embedded in the iron net.
, only a small number of them broke through the obstruction of the iron net, and set off a violent sea of blood on the city wall.
"Don't be afraid, the enemy's trebuchets cannot break through our interception network."
Mifret directed the battle on the city wall without even looking at the dead and injured soldiers. With the existence of these iron nets, it can be said that the trebuchets on the Chinese side have basically been abolished.
"Replace with shotguns and continue the attack."
Seeing that the net-breaking bombs returned in vain, Yuan Wei was completely scratched his head. He had been in the army for so long, fighting all the way from the Jizhou Army to the present. It was the first time he saw such an enemy. It was really disgusting.
Each round of shotguns was loaded and then fired together. Countless shotguns were like a dark cloud, flying towards the city wall of Gambilas.
"Shield ready."
Seeing the enemy's shotguns coming, Mifret was also frightened. Although he had an iron net to intercept them, the shotguns were so small after all. If they couldn't be blocked, their own losses would be huge.
Shield after shield was erected, covering the city wall in an instant, waiting for the rain of bullets to come.
The dark clouds dispersed and shotguns fell from the sky, falling on the city wall like a heavy rain.
I have to say that the quality of the interception net created by the Guishuang Empire is really good. It is not only tough but also has fine mesh. Even a fist-sized shotgun can block all kinds of bullets. Even if the stone bullet is not blocked, it can hit the city wall.
The damage caused by the Kushan army on top was not that great.
"Stop the attack temporarily and I will report to His Majesty."
Seeing that none of the three types of ammunition caused much damage to the enemies on the city wall, Yuan Wei had no choice but to directly order the trebuchets around him to suspend the attack and report the situation to Yuan Shu himself.
"Your Majesty, Yuan Wei is incompetent, the Kushan Empire is well-defended, and the trebuchets are temporarily ineffective. Do you want to continue the attack?"
Yuan Wei came to Yuan Shu, knelt down on his knees and told him about the battle ahead.
"The trebuchet is ineffective?"
Hearing Yuan Wei's words, Yuan Shu was also stunned. He had never experienced such a situation. His own army's interception net was able to block the trebuchet attack, but he did not expect that the Kushan Army could do the same.
"Your Majesty, we can't underestimate the people of the world. We can make interception nets to deal with trebuchets ourselves. It's not surprising that the Kushan people can do it."
