Cao Cao nodded. About 40% of his current main force was mainly used to deal with enemies that might appear behind him. Of course, these 40% of the main force were also in stealth mode, gathering around corners.
corner.
Originally, Mao Jie also suggested quickly building piles of rocks in the river valley to deter horses. However, considering that this kind of thing might have a greater impact on his own cavalry than the Holy Death Cavalry, Mao Jie suggested building a pile of rocks in the mountains.
A high platform protection was built at the last corner of the river valley, allowing archers to cross fire and suppress Ardashir.
This is also the reason why the main force of Cao Cao's army to attack the Imperial Scepter was somewhat out of strength. Many of the main force were sent by Cao Cao to deploy various means in the rear that could reduce the cavalry attack.
If things like horse traps had not been trapped by various large-scale and small-scale road paving techniques in this era, Cao Cao would have definitely launched three or four legions today to dig out the land for several miles to the size of a bowl.
A horse trap half a foot to a foot deep.
To be honest, this is the best way to deal with cavalry, especially the best defense method when the camp is defended. It is also the reason why most cavalry in history did not take the initiative to attack the camp, but relied on mobility to choose the battlefield. Unfortunately, this kind of small pit is now
There are too many ways to cope.
Even if the essence of heaven and earth is activated and the large-scale cloud paving cannot be used, there is still no problem in ensuring that the road underfoot is smooth every time you charge.
This is also an important reason why the current horse-rejection, piles of stones and other messy things are very effective for the assault cavalry. Of course, for some heavy cavalry, or cavalry with heavy cavalry qualities, it is a joke. Just hit them. The horse-rejection collision
Flying, collapsing rocks, it’s not like I haven’t done it before!
The ton-level heavy cavalry guards use dragon spears. It doesn't matter if they just resist the horses, they just hit them.
"Let the cavalry in the rear army be prepared to guard against arrows." Cao Cao ordered Du Ji standing aside, asking him to pass the order to the rear army.
"Cavalry defense against arrows is a joke in itself. My suggestion is to deter each other. We force Falgon out first and kill him directly." Chen Gong said with a ruthless look in his eyes, "He should only have one legion now. This
This is the best opportunity to kill the opponent."
The organic archers are very powerful, but without protection, as long as the cavalry can rush to the side of the archers, it is simply a matter of mowing the grass. Although Cao Cao does not have sharp overriding cavalry with high attack speed, he can kill Farr alone.
Gong, Cao Cao is still very confident.
When Chen Gong discovered that Falgon was gone, he actually guessed that Falgon was most likely behind him. Because of the pursuit, he had now reached a position not far from the Han army's fortress. In short, it was Le Jin and others.
People can come out at any time and stab the imperial scepter in the back.
This is a very fatal situation. Now the situation in Beigui has not reached its limit. It certainly does not seem very dangerous. But when the Han army adds weights one by one, Urdu must do it in order to keep the front from collapsing.
Keep pressing on the army.
When the Han army and the main force of Beigui reached a stalemate, and troops and horses fought all the way from the rear fortress, Beigui would definitely collapse. After all, the stalemate on the front line was only an advantage, and for an army of this size to turn from advantage to victory, as long as the front line does not collapse
, it actually takes a very long time.
Therefore, Chen Gong knew very well why the Kushan elites on the opposite side released Falgon. In fact, everyone had the same idea, which was to run out of food and take fallback routes.
If this is the case, it is better to force Falgon out as soon as possible to prevent the situation from getting out of control. For Cao Cao, the battle at this time is equivalent to clearing the battlefield in advance.
"Are we going to let Le Jin and the others attack at this time?" Cao Cao asked with a frown.
"Let Le Jin and the others attack and force Falgon to take the initiative. He is definitely staring here now, but I don't know which mountain pass he is nearby." Chen Gong nodded and said, "Compared to Falgon and other possible ones.
The opponents join forces and let General Xu kill Falgon first."
"General, please let me defeat Falgon." Cabbage, who was the bodyguard, said.
It's not that Cao Cao was unprepared for possible blows, he was actually even prepared for bow and arrow strikes.
Cabbage's mental image can deflect gravity, which is a natural killer for almost all physical bows and arrows. If the center of gravity shifts, the arrow will most likely fall to the ground early, or fly high. If it doesn't work, move the center of gravity of the arrow to the tail feathers, and the arrow will be lifted.
Its power will also be reduced by half.
Therefore, facing Falgon who used solid arrows, Cabbage did not have the slightest fear.
"Okay, you can lead the elite troops to the rear." Cao Cao thought for a while and nodded. He agreed with Falgon's plans.
Soon Cao Cao was the first to use a specific firework signal. Because this was a mountain valley, and it got higher and higher as it went up, so if he wanted to let Le Jin and others in the fortress receive the message, they had to shoot very high. Naturally,
Ardashir in the rear, Falgon on the trail in the Hindu Kush Mountains on the left, and Oswin a little further away all saw this fireworks.
"Wen Qian, you and Mancheng go quickly and leave the fortress to me." Cao Ren said very confidently, while Le Jin and Li Dian, who had been prepared, quickly led their troops and rushed out from the rear of the Han army's fortress.
, at this time the Kushan soldiers who were watching here quickly retreated.
Even though Urdu was psychologically prepared for the Han army to send troops to the fortress yesterday, the main force of the Han army did not attack at the beginning. They directly informed the elite of the fortress to attack their midfield, which really allowed Urdu to attack.
Some are riding a tiger and are in trouble.
"Kapil, let the deputy general lead the imperial scepter to block the Han army in the rear." Urdu gritted his teeth and ordered. At this time, the situation has not reached a very tense stage, and the main force of the Han army has not pressed forward. He must not let Far
If Falgon attacks, Falgon will only die if he attacks at this time.
The current style of play was completely beyond Urdu's expectations. It should have been a good move, but the opponent directly used the theoretical trump card before the situation reached a stalemate. Urdu directly felt that he would not be able to fight.
.
According to the previous plan, the Han army sent troops to the fortress, and Falgon from their side attacked? What a joke, that is courting death.
But if this plan is not followed, no matter which legion is allocated to stop Le Jin, there will be problems with the configuration of the front line. If the front army collapses, then the Han army will be killed head-on in an upright manner, and Guishang will not even be able to recover.
Already.
By then, let alone Oswin, even if Ardashir did come, he would not be able to defeat Cao Cao, who had already defeated the main force of Kushan. This move directly hit the vital point.
At this time, Kapil's sanity has obviously begun to evaporate, and Urdu has given up hope. He directly commands the imperial staff to attack. After all, it is also a military soul army. In the past, he needed to free up an empty space to bless himself to avoid being killed.
, but after the heavenly change, the combat effectiveness of the military spirit has not declined at all, and it is still no problem to stop an army with its strength.
After all, a military spirit legion, as long as it is not a pure auxiliary, its combat effectiveness relies on the blessing of unlimited physical strength and resistance to death, it is at least on the level of the Imperial Guard, and there is no problem in blocking the full army of the Han army.
At the same time, Salman also heard the shouts of killing in front of the Han army's fortress from behind. After confirming that there were soldiers and horses attacking the Han army's fortress, he no longer hesitated and started to attack the city directly.
It is true that part of the main force has withdrawn to the Kabul Valley, but Salman still remains in the upper reaches of the Helmand River with the idea of witnessing this battle at least, and now is the time for him to take action. Urdu waiting behind the fortress
A man is still fighting, and he must never give up.
"Prepare the flying bridge!" Salman ordered loudly, "All soldiers follow me to attack the city!"
Cao Ren looked indifferent. He knew that Salman, who had not retreated before, was waiting for Le Jin and others to leave the city to support Cao Cao. But how dare you want to take over the city where Cao Ren is stationed?
"Scout, Ardashir has appeared in the river valley, and is probably less than fifteen miles away from us." Just when Cao Cao was about to mobilize Cao Zhen to supplement the defense of the front line, the news of Ardashir had already
It was passed on through the scouts.
"It came very quickly." Cao Cao was silent for a while after hearing this, but his expression became much calmer. Ardashir actually came. Originally, he expected that the other party would arrive in the evening this evening, or early tomorrow morning, but he didn't expect that there would be so many.
"Order Wen Hou and Er Lai to shrink their front lines and prepare to defend against the Kushan offensive." Cao Cao took a deep breath and calmed down at this time. "Order Zhang Xiu, Xiahou Dun, and Pang De to prepare for the attack, and order Xun Gongda
, Xu Huang, and Cao Zhang, carry out crossbow and spear-throwing attacks, and try their best to contain Ardashir!"
When he thought that the opponent only had 5,000 men, and their actual combat strength was equivalent to three, four, or five Imperial Guards, Cao Cao's head swelled three times, but he had been prepared early in the morning.
Ordinary bows and arrows are definitely meaningless, because the rugged terrain of this place belongs to the mountains and river valleys. The bends cause the arrows to be effective only at the last bend. Similarly, if Aldashir is not a fool, I am afraid that he will not be able to hit the arrows from the last bend.
When I came out of the last corner, I was already prepared to guard against arrows.
Therefore, Cao Cao was not prepared at all for ordinary level arrow strikes. He prepared a crossbow machine. Of course, Xu Huang's explosive spear throwing was used at the beginning. The extremely powerful cross-net throwing spear used atmospheric deflection as thrust, which may not be able to kill him.
A lot, but it can definitely disrupt the opponent's formation.
In order to ensure the effectiveness, Xu Huang's army itself used light refraction and ignored Xun You's spiritual talent. However, now with Cao Zhang's bows and arrows, Cao Cao pressed forward.
Doesn’t work? Regardless of whether it works or not, even if one hundred crossbow bolts can exchange for the head of a Holy Death Cavalry, Lao Cao thinks it’s worth it. Our crossbow arrows can be produced if we kill them. I want to see your Holy Death Cavalry.
Is it possible to be resurrected from the dead?
If you dare to copy my old Cao's retreat, you will die!
