Chapter 3904: Unexpected
Cao Cao nodded. His current main force divided about forty percent of it mainly to deal with the possible enemies behind him. Of course, these forty percent of the main force are also invisible invisible, gathering around the corner.
Originally, Mao Jie also suggested building stone piles and resisting horses in the river valley quickly. However, considering that this thing might have a greater impact on his own cavalry than the Shengyu Cavalry, Mao Jie suggested building high platforms at the last corner of the mountain valley to protect them so that archers could cross-fire and suppress Ardashire.
This is also the reason why the Cao army was unable to defeat the main force of the Empire's scepter. Many of the main forces were taken by Cao Cao to arrange various means to reduce the impact of the cavalry in the rear.
If it weren't for the fact that the horse pit had been killed by various large-scale and small-scale road paving secret tricks in this era, Cao Cao would have mobilized three or four legions today to dig the horse pits of several miles to a size of a bowl, half a foot to one foot deep.
To be honest, this is the biggest means to deal with cavalry, especially the best defensive method for the camp to be punctual. It is also the reason why most cavalrymen in history did not actively attack camps and chose their own battlefields by relying on mobile power. Unfortunately, there are too many ways to deal with this kind of small pit now.
Even if the essence of heaven and earth is activated and large-scale cloud air cannot be used, it is still no problem to ensure that the road under your feet is flat every time you charge.
This is also an important reason why the messy things such as horse resistance, stone piles and other things are very effective for cavalry. Of course, for some heavy cavalry or cavalry with heavy cavalry qualities, it is a joke. Just bump into the horse resistance, and rock piles and crash into the rock piles. It’s not that I haven’t done it before!
A ton-class heavy cavalry guard uses a dragon spear, and it’s nothing but a horse resistance, just a collision.
"Let the cavalry of the rear army be prepared for arrow defense." Cao Cao ordered Du Ji on the side, asking him to pass an order to the rear army.
"Cavalents' arrow defense is a joke in itself. My suggestion is to intimidate each other. Let's force Fargon out first and kill it directly." Chen Gong said with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes, "He should have only one legion now, and this is the best chance to kill the other party."
The established archers are very fierce, but without protection, as long as the cavalry can rush to the next to the archers, it is simply mowing grass. Although Cao Cao does not have the sharp ridge with high attack speed, Cao Cao is still very sure to kill Fargon alone.
When Chen Gong found out that Falgon was gone, he actually guessed that Falgon was most likely to be behind him. Because of the pursuit, he has now approached not far from the Han Army Fortress. Simply put, Le Jin and others can come out to stab the back of the imperial scepter at any time.
This is a very fatal situation. The situation in Beigui is not at its limit, so of course it does not seem very dangerous. However, when the Han army added weights one by one, Urdu had to keep suppressing the legion in order to keep the front line from collapse.
When the Han army and Beigui main force fell into a stalemate and the fortress in the rear were all out, Beigui would definitely collapse. After all, the stalemate on the front is only an advantage, and a large army of this size would actually take a very long time to transform from an advantage to a victory as long as there is no collapse of the front line.
Therefore, Chen Gong knew very well what the Kushan elites on the opposite side released Fargon. Everyone was thinking the same, they were all banned from food and taking advantage of the way out.
Since this is the case, it is better to force Fargon out as soon as possible to prevent the situation from getting out of control. For Cao Cao, the battle at this time is more like clearing the field in advance.
"Will 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 to attack. He is absolutely staring at this place now, but he doesn't know which mountain road he is nearby." Chen Gong nodded and said, "Compared to Falgon's joining with other possible opponents, let General Xu kill Falgon first."
"General, please let me defeat Fargon." Kabech, who was the escort, spoke.
It was not that Cao Cao was not prepared to deal with possible blows, but he was actually ready to face bows and arrows.
Kabech's mind image can deflect gravity. For almost all physical bows and arrows, it is a Tianke. If a center of gravity is offset, the arrow branch will likely fall to the ground early or fly high. If it does not move the arrow center of gravity to the tail feather, the power of the arrow branch will be reduced by half.
Therefore, when facing Fargon, who used physical arrows, Kabech was not afraid at all.
"Okay, you can lead the elite troops in the headquarters to the rear." Cao Cao thought for a while and nodded, forcing Fargon to out these plans, he agreed.
Soon Cao Cao used a specific firework signal first, because it was a mountain valley and the higher it went up, so if Le Jin and others in the fortress received the message, they had to shoot very high. Naturally, Ardashir in the rear, Falgon in the Hindu Kush Mountains trail on the left and Osven a little farther saw this firework.
"Wen Qian, you and Mancheng go quickly, just leave it to me on the fortress." Cao Ren said confidently, and Le Jin and Li Dian, who had already prepared, quickly led their troops out from the rear of the Han army fortress. At this time, the Kushan soldiers who were monitoring here quickly retreated.
Even though Urdu was mentally prepared to deal with the Han army's fortress yesterday, the main force of the Han army did not press forward at the beginning and directly informed the elites of the fortress to attack and snatch their back midfielders, which really made Urdu a little difficult to get on the verge of the tiger.
"Kapil, let the deputy general lead the imperial scepter to block the Han army in the rear." Urdu gritted his teeth and ordered. Before the situation was very tense, the main force of the Han army had not been suppressed. He must not let Fargon attack. At this time, Fargon attacked will only die.
The current style of play is completely beyond Urdu's expectations. It should be a good move, but the opponent directly suppressed the theoretical killer move before the situation reached a stalemate. Urdu felt that he would not be able to fight.
According to the previous plan, the Han army fortress sent troops, and Fargon attacked on their side? What a joke, that was to seek death.
But if this plan is not followed, no matter which legion is assigned to block the perpetrator, the front configuration will be problematic. If the front army collapses, the Han army will kill the front with a dignified front, and the Kushan will not even have the power to turn the world back.
Not to mention Osven is coming, even if Ardashire really comes, he will not be able to defeat Cao Cao, who has defeated the main force of Kushan, and this move hits the critical point.
At this time, Kapil's rationality had obviously begun to evaporate, and Ur had no hope. He directly ordered the Imperial Scepter to attack. After all, it was a military soul legion. In the past, he needed to free up a space to bless him to avoid being killed. However, after the change of heaven, the combat power of military soul did not decline at all. It would be no problem to block a legion based on his strength.
After all, a military soul legion, as long as it is not a pure auxiliary, its combat effectiveness relies on unlimited physical strength and the blessing of resisting death, at least as high as an imperial guard. There is no problem in blocking the Manchu Legion that has always been in the Han army.
At the same time, Salman also heard the shouts of killing behind the fortress in front of the Han army fortress. After confirming that there were troops attacking in the Han army fortress, he no longer hesitated and started to attack the city directly.
It is true that some of the main forces have withdrawn from the Kabul River Valley, but Salman is still left in the upper reaches of the Helmand River with the idea of witnessing this battle. Now it is time for him to take action. Urdu and others in the rear of the fortress are still fighting, so he must not give up.
"Prepare for the flybridge!" Salman ordered loudly, "All the soldiers follow me to attack the city!"
Cao Ren looked cold, and 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 you want to take down the city where I, Cao Ren, was stationed?
"Scout look, Aldashir has appeared in the valley, and it is about fifteen miles away from us." Just as Cao Cao was about to mobilize Cao Zhen to repair the front line, the news about Aldashir had been conveyed by the scout.
"It's so fast." Cao Cao was silent for a while after hearing this, and his expression became much calmer. Aldashir actually came. It was estimated that the other party would have arrived this evening or early tomorrow morning, but he didn't expect that he had made so many.
"Order Wen Hou and E to come and shrink their fronts and prepare to defend against the Kushan offensive." Cao Cao took a deep breath, and at this time he calmed down. "Order Zhang Xiu, Xiahou Dun, and Pang De to be prepared to resist the impact, and order Xun Gongda, Xu Huang, and Cao Zhang to carry out crossbows and spear throwing strikes, and do his best to curb Arda Hill!"
When he thought that the opponent had only 5,000 people, his actual combat effectiveness was equivalent to three, four or five imperial guards, Cao Cao's head was three times bigger, but he was ready early in the morning.
Ordinary bows and arrows are definitely meaningless, because the broken terrain of this kind of place belongs to the mountain valley. If the curve causes arrow strikes to work, they can only be on the last bend. Similarly, if Ardashir is not a fool, he may have prepared to defend himself when he breaks out from the last bend.
Therefore, Cao Cao was not prepared for ordinary-level arrow strikes. He prepared a crossbow machine. Of course, at the beginning, it was Xu Huang's burst spear. The super-power cross-bow spear produced by using atmospheric deflection as thrust may not be able to kill much, but it can definitely disrupt the opponent's formation.
In order to ensure that it works, Xu Huang's army itself used light refraction and ignored Xun You's spiritual talent. However, now Cao Zhang's bow and arrow strike, Cao Cao pressed up together.
Doesn't work? No matter whether it works or not, even if one hundred crossbow arrows can be replaced with a head of a Holy Death Knight, Lao Cao thought it was worth it. If our crossbow arrows are gone, we can produce it. I want to see if your Holy Death Knight can still be resurrected on the spot even if it dies.
