"Since you said it's over, does it mean Enter blocked the Chinese attack?"
Hearing the words in the shadow, Bo Tiao also nodded.
"Well, General Enter's preparations were very complete, and the Chinese attack was directly defeated. If the Chinese people only have this ability, it is basically impossible to capture Lou Baisha."
In the shadows, Abunadu spoke again. He also had first-hand information about the battle on the city wall. He fought well in today's defensive battle. It seemed that it was still impossible for the Chinese to capture Loubaisha.
"Don't take it lightly. The Chinese people are more powerful than this. Otherwise, they would not have been able to fight all the way until now, and my father would have to personally lead his troops to Gaofu to fight."
Regarding Abunado's words, Bo Tiao disagreed a little. The Chinese people must be more than this. Otherwise, how could they have been suppressing the Kushans? You must know that they are fighting locally, and the Chinese people have to fight with them across thousands of miles. There is no way
How is three-point strength possible?
"I have been prepared. Once Enter really cannot stop the Chinese people, I will take you away as soon as possible and will never put you in danger."
After hearing what Bo Tiao said, Abunado had nothing to say. That's all he could say now, and that's all he could do. Protecting Bo Tiao so that he could evacuate safely was his only use.
"I understand. Let's wait until the city defenses are breached."
Bo Diao shook his head. Although it was important to find a way out, what he needed now was not that, but to block the enemy's attack and block the wave of Chinese attacks.
"I see."
The Chinese army returned to the military camp, and Huang Zhong summoned all the generals.
"Tell me, what's the loss today?"
Huang Zhong glanced at the generals in front of him. It was time to sum up after the war.
"Nearly 2,000 Xiaohu troops died in the battle, and there were also 2,000 wounded."
Xu Chu looked at Huang Zhong with a trace of regret in his eyes. After all, these were the elite soldiers he brought out. Although he no longer wanted to be a general of the Xiaohu Army, he still couldn't bear to see so many of his soldiers die in battle.
"The Crosswind Army's losses were slightly less than those of the Screaming Tiger Army, with nearly 1,500 killed and nearly 2,000 wounded."
Now that Huang Zhong admitted it generously, Wei Yan had nothing to hide and reported his own damage data.
"In one battle, 3,500 people were killed and 4,000 were injured. Guishang's defense is also strong enough."
Huang Zhong also frowned when he heard the casualty data reported by the two. They only had less than 50,000 soldiers and horses. He didn't expect that nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses were scrapped in one battle, which also surprised him.
"We were still prepared too hastily. Without the suppression of trebuchets, all the opponent's defensive equipment was there. These damages were too great for us. This is all due to my lack of consideration as an army staff officer. I will report to Your Majesty after the battle.
Please forgive me."
Zhou Yu saw that the atmosphere was somewhat solidified, and stood up directly, taking all the responsibility on himself.
"Okay, now is not the time to hold anyone responsible. What we have to do now is to think about how to take down the other party, take down Baisha City, and dedicate this city to His Majesty."
Huang Zhong glanced at Zhou Yu. Now is not the time to talk about who is responsible, but how to get downstairs Baisha. It is useless to talk about it.
"General Huang Zhong is right. This loss is necessary. How should we fight next?"
Jiang Qin glanced at the few people. Just as Huang Zhong said, the most important thing to do now is to think about how to fight next.
"Then what else is there to say? Build more siege equipment such as fortresses and trebuchets. We must also seize the time to build trebuchets. These are our support and our advantages. There is no reason to use our shortcomings to attack others' strong points."
Zhou Tai looked at everyone. Since everyone was discussing how to deal with Lou Baisha, he directly expressed his thoughts. Having a trebuchet was his advantage, so why not use his advantage to fight?
There is no need to engage in heroism, why bother?
"Well, General Zhou Tai is right. Just wait, build more chariots, build more siege equipment, and wait for the trebuchets to be completed before attacking."
Huang Zhong nodded. He was indeed eager for quick success now. Since they had already reached Lou Baisha, there was no need to worry so much. After all, they had already completed more than half of their mission. Taking down Lou Baisha was only the brightest part. Even if
What if I can't take it off?
As long as the news of Lou Baisha's siege spreads out, the Kushan army on the Gaofu side will inevitably lose morale. This is enough.
"promise."
Huang Zhong was right. They were indeed eager for quick success, thinking that Loubaisha's city wall was not high enough to be able to break through it in one fell swoop. However, it backfired. They suffered the most determined counterattack from the enemy, resulting in the loss of their own troops. So what they are doing now is to stabilize their mentality.
Make the best preparations and launch a new round of attack on Lou Baisha when you are ready.
Bo Tiao has now moved the morning meeting place to the military camp, so that they can not only grasp the battle situation information at the first time, but also stabilize the morale of the troops, so that the soldiers defending the city can feel that they are with them.
"General Enter, what's the current situation?
How is the military morale?"
Bo Diao glanced at the civil and military officials sitting there and asked Enter directly about his current situation.
"Reporting to Your Highness, the military morale of all departments is now stable. As long as nothing unexpected happens, it will be impossible for the 50,000 Chinese army to break through our defense line."
Hearing Bo Diao call his name, Enter also took a step forward to salute Bo Diao, and at the same time told him about the current situation of the army.
"I trust what you say. Anyway, the whole city of Lou Baisha is in your hands, and the heart of the empire is also in your hands to protect."
Bo Diao nodded to Enter. Now he could only rely on Enter. He could only believe what he said.
"Your Highness, I have a suggestion."
Daur looked at everyone and stood up directly to salute Badian.
"If the prime minister has any suggestions, just tell them and let everyone listen."
Bo Diao also set his sights on Daul. He didn't know what the other party would propose now.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid that the Chinese will have reinforcements, so what we have to do now is to seize the opportunity to send people away before the opponent's reinforcements arrive. On the one hand, we go to various cities to request reinforcements, and on the other hand, we rush to Gaofu to report to His Majesty.
situation, let him send soldiers south to provide support."
Daul expressed his thoughts directly.
"Your Highness, I don't agree with Prime Minister Daur's suggestion. You can send troops to other cities, but you absolutely cannot send people to Gaofu."
After hearing Daur's suggestion, Enter was the first to stand up and object.
"Why?"
Seeing the objecting Enter, Daur immediately became angry. The current situation is that the main force of the entire Kushan army is in Gaofu. Although there are soldiers and horses near Loubaisha, there are not many soldiers and horses. Secondly, these soldiers
The horses are all old, weak, sick and disabled. Even if they come here, they are just making up for it.
If you want to rescue, you can only mobilize troops from Gaofu and Vesudeva I. Only in this way can you rescue Lou Baisha and save the capital of the Kushan Empire.
"No, His Majesty is now fighting the main force of the Chinese Empire in Gaofu. He will send people to spread the news that the Chinese are surrounding Lou Baisha. There are two most likely situations.
One is that His Majesty suppresses the news and does not send troops to rescue. In this way, Lou Baisha will still be isolated and helpless. However, the fire cannot be suppressed, and people will always know about it. If the news spreads, Gaofu's military morale will be unstable, and it is likely to directly affect the situation.
The overall situation of the battlefield,
The second option is for His Majesty to send people to support immediately. This will inevitably lead to the weakening of Gao Fu's strength. If they cannot stop the Chinese attack and let their army rush over, the empire will be over.
Therefore, we must not distract His Majesty at this moment. Lou Baisha can still hold on, so there is no need."
Enter glanced at Daur, and he believed more and more in Wanbul's words. This would spread the news to Gaofu, which would definitely affect the entire war situation, and might even cause the empire to perish. He
This situation is absolutely not allowed to happen.
"Your Highness, where is Loubaisha? It is the capital of the empire. General Enter, you are right. You can resist the Chinese attack, but what if you can't block it?
The capital of the empire, the capital of the empire, this is the symbol of the empire,
If the imperial capital is occupied by the enemy, it will be a devastating blow to the entire empire.
There will be no intact eggs under the overthrow of the nest. If there are no eggs here, the army at Gaofu will definitely collapse completely. Then the empire will be truly finished.
Therefore, only by guarding Lou Baisha can the empire continue, and we can delay the Chinese Empire until it runs out of ammunition and food, and then we can defend the world conquered by our ancestors."
Daur shook his head. He disagreed with what Ent'er said. In his opinion, Loubaisha must be preserved in the current situation, even if Gao Fu was abandoned. It's not that he didn't believe that Ent'er could hold on to this place.
, but it is possible that we will not be able to defend it. This place is too important and cannot be compared with Gao Fu. Can these people not understand what is more important?
"Your Highness, we must not send anyone to Gaofu now. We still hope to see more clearly."
"Your Highness, Lou Baisha must not be lost. We must send someone to ask for help. I hope you will find out."
The two of them have now talked about this, and they salute to Bo Diao together, hoping that the other party will adopt their suggestions.
"What the two adults said makes sense, and the other adults have something to say."
Bo Diao glanced at the two people arguing, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes. He didn't know whether he should send someone for help or stick to the city.
"Your Highness, I agree with General Enter's statement. Your Majesty is currently fighting a fierce battle in Gaofu. If this news is really passed on, their morale will definitely collapse, which will affect the direction of the entire battlefield. It is very likely that His Majesty will be in Gaofu.
If it is captured by China, the empire will really be over."
At this moment, Wanbul also stood up, glanced at Enter and Daur, and directly chose to support Enter's idea.
"Lord Wanbuer thinks so too?
Does anyone else have anything to say?”
Hearing Wan Buer's words, Bo Diao also nodded. Now he is in a dilemma and can only make a decision based on the number of supporters.
"Your Highness, actually I don't want your Majesty to lose his position, but even if we don't report it, will the Chinese people give up this opportunity?
After all, the siege of the imperial capital will have a huge impact on the morale of our military. As long as they make this news clear in front of the formation, His Majesty's army will still know about it, so what will happen then?"
Daur had long known that Wanbul and Enter were wearing the same pants, so it was not surprising that he came out to support the other party, and he had already had a countermeasure.
"Your Highness, I think the Prime Minister is right. This is the situation now. Even if we don't say it, won't the news get out?
Even if the Chinese people don't tell them, they fought all the way, and the people along the way will pass on the news. Now the news that Lou Baisha is surrounded may be known to everyone.
Therefore, we need to send people to Loubaisha in advance. On the one hand, we will inform His Majesty of the situation here and let him prepare a response plan, and on the other hand, we will also see what His Majesty thinks."
Seeing Benbul's support for Enter, the noble leader Ulahat also stood up. He thought that what Daur said was right. Even if he didn't send someone to ask for help from Gaofu, wouldn't the news get out?
?
Paper cannot cover the fire. Rather than letting Vesudev I be at a loss when encountering the news, it would be better to send someone there in advance so that the other party can be prepared.
"What Marquis Ulahat said makes sense. Instead of letting your majesty suffer passively, we should send someone to inform you in advance so that your majesty can be prepared. We can also make it clear to your majesty that we can defend Loubaisha as long as he does not show up.
Just questions.”
Hearing Ulahat's words, Bo Tune also made a decision. Although he could not decide what the Chinese people thought, he could eliminate the negative effects of Lou Baisha's siege to the greatest extent, so that Vesutiva I could fight with peace of mind.
"If that's what Your Highness thinks, then I have nothing to say. Just send someone to Gaofu to deliver the message."
