Chapter 2027: The Unhuman Officer
...
The original unstoppable momentum has turned into the current emergency retreat. If this happened to a normal person, who would feel good about it?
Brahe had not thought about it, but because of his approach and delay, the vanguard that was originally preparing to retreat stopped involuntarily and tried to prepare for another attack to curb the Han army's offensive.
It was not until Brach's order reached the ears of senior generals on the front line that they began to prepare for evacuation.
"General Yan, let's quit while we're ahead. The opponent's commander's legion talent is gradually destroying the effect of the cloud army formation..." Lu Qi looked at Yan Yan at this time, trying to spread out both wings and use the reserve troops on both wings to completely encircle the opponent, his eyelids twitching unconsciously.
Using a force of less than 50,000 to surround an enemy force of 100,000, is this crazy?
After hearing this, Yan Yan realized the effect of the legion talent displayed by the opponent's coach.
Everyone originally thought that the other party had no legion talent, but I didn't expect that under such circumstances, someone would actually display legion talent. It was really surprising.
But think about it, it is indeed unlikely that the other party can command an army of 100,000 without some hard power, so I was overthinking it.
Since the other party has such ability, you can't force him to swallow it. If you really try to force it, you will probably be choked to death.
Apart from the Dongzhou soldiers, other legions could not withstand the joint attack of such high-level generals, which meant that the larger the encirclement, the higher the probability of the enemy breaking out.
At that time, the effective encirclement effect of the encirclement will be lower, and the results that can be obtained will also be lower, while the unit's own casualties will increase instead of decrease.
Thinking of this, Yan Yan nodded on the spot, and immediately began to order the troops on both wings, especially the corresponding reserve troops, to withdraw half of the personnel to strengthen the defense lines on both wings, and implement exchange defense, while reducing the defense range. By doing so, a part of the reserve soldiers could be withdrawn to cut off the retreat of the enemy's front army.
Among the Kushan army, Yan Lipu, who was originally used to attack the flank, was only playing an auxiliary role when the vanguard troops attacked smoothly, distracting the enemy's personnel to prevent them from returning and suppressing their own vanguard troops.
How long did this last?
Our own vanguard troops have penetrated deep into the enemy's territory and become a vanguard force, and are almost being surrounded.
Moreover, the enemy, who had not retreated in the face of danger before, began to shrink their defense line and use reserve soldiers in this situation. The significance of this can be imagined.
Strengthen your own defense and then withdraw troops. In such a chaotic situation, you can still carry out this operation. How outrageous must the opponent's command be?
But no matter how outrageous the opponent's command was, Yan Lipu knew that he had to make a decisive move and demonstrate corresponding deterrence at all costs, so as to prevent the opponent from returning, reduce the pressure on his own vanguard troops, and rescue his own front-line troops as much as possible.
Thinking of this, they could only increase the intensity of the attack. Compared to those people, the lives of a few soldiers were of incomparable value.
The gap between the soldiers under his command and these officers is too obvious.
It was precisely to confirm this that Yan Lipu directly ordered his soldiers to launch a general attack even though they could not break through the enemy's defense, and to unleash the most fierce momentum to make the enemy feel the pressure, so that they could transfer their troops to the flank front to deal with the pressure they caused.
Of course, in addition to this path, there is another path, which is to choose to continue gambling and bet that the vanguard troops can achieve good results. If Yan Lipu stayed in the vanguard troops, he might still have such gambling ideas, but now that he is outside, he can only use this almost crazy behavior to achieve the corresponding goal.
Without any economy or stinginess, Yan Lipu deployed almost all the weapons of his own army to carry out the most terrifying attack in the shortest possible time.
Whether it was arrows from bows or spears, they became frequent visitors over the heads of soldiers on the flank defense line, blocking the sun in the sky.
"It's good to predict the opponent's prediction in advance..." Looking at Lu Qi on the flank front, he was quite satisfied with the result.
After completing the troop deployment, we still maintained the stability of the front line, strengthened the corresponding defenses, responded to the enemy's madness, and confirmed the main concentration points. This is indeed a lot of progress.
Sure enough, no matter what is learned in books or in dreams, it is itself a transformation of knowledge. If you want to truly put it into practice, you have to fight to find out.
And the two reserve corps on the left and right wings further inserted from the flanks to ensure the follow-up and flank safety of the Dongzhou soldiers and further stabilize the passage.
This behavior also made the Dongzhou soldiers' breakthrough speed faster.
However, the Dongzhou soldiers were infantry after all, not cavalry, and their mobility in this regard was indeed limited. Even if they could fight against the enemy's guards and achieve a faster breakthrough speed, they could not outrun the retreat of some people.
Looking at some high-ranking Kushan generals who directly ordered the guards to stay where they were to resist, while he himself retreated quickly with a small entourage and relying on excellent physical fitness, even Luchi was surprised.
No matter what, even if it's an emergency retreat, we can't step over other people's heads.
All I can say is that these Brahmin generals really didn’t treat these people as human beings. If they die, they die, and then they can recruit another batch.
As expected of a nobleman, this strange system of more than a dozen animals is truly amazing!
"Such an excellent target, what a pity..." Yan Yan looked at the Kushan general who jumped up, and after gesturing for a while, he gave up the idea of sniping him with a bow and arrow.
The reason for this is that his ability, at least in terms of archery ability, is not outstanding.
"There's nothing we can do about it. The other side doesn't treat us as human beings. As for sniping, there's also something we can do..." Lu Qi turned his head to look at the crossbow not far away, pointed with his finger, and said softly.
Yan Yan just took a look at the bed crossbow and then gave up. On the one hand, the distance was relatively far and the difficulty of hitting the target was relatively high. Even if he hit the target, he might not be able to kill the opponent. After all, his internal energy was out of his body and his physical fitness was still very good.
On the other hand, the hit rate of the bed crossbow is too low, and it relies entirely on the face.
And if you want to hit a target that is jumping, that is too difficult.
However, since the other side has already done this, there is no way to maintain morale, and the trend of collapse is obvious.
Gather your troops, cut off the enemy forcefully, and take victory into your hands!
