Chapter 2597
The best choice
...
Sima Yi was quite happy in his heart when he saw his ally being attacked like this.
After all, the way Parthia has behaved during this period is indeed like a sleeping empire that is slowly waking up and showing how powerful its empire is.
Nobles one after another, strong men born among the common people, joined the army because of Vologases V's performance.
These endless streams of people made Sima Yi doubt whether his plan could succeed. This was also one of the reasons why he did not oppose the Roman plan to divide Parthia into two at the first time.
And now seeing Parthia under attack to this extent, Sima Yi was better able to put himself in the right position and attitude.
The power of the Roman Empire is indeed surprising. After suffering such a severe blow, the force and decisiveness it displayed were not only swift and effective, but also quite successful!
"It seems that the Roman Empire is much stronger than I imagined..." Sima Yi turned his head to look to the west, and finally retracted the thoughts hidden in his heart.
I originally wanted to create some trouble for Vologases V, delay him without leaving any trace, and slow down his growth, but now it seems that this is completely unnecessary.
In this way, there is no need to deliberately find fault with the other party, and the alliance can still be maintained, making life better for each other.
"Yes, the Roman Empire was indeed terribly powerful, as it could cause such a big commotion..." Xu Shu, who was thinking purely from a military perspective, gave his own opinion.
In the absence of any external influences, all troops fighting at night are elite troops, at least in terms of their personal mentality, they can be called elite.
And if it is able to carry out large-scale field battles, then there is no doubt that this force's combat effectiveness is terrifyingly strong.
Only if you are confident enough in your own abilities and believe in the capabilities of the army will you adopt this method of night decisive battle.
If a night battle cannot eliminate the advantages and disadvantages of both sides, or cannot bring advantages to one's own side, then deliberately fighting a decisive battle at night would be looking for trouble.
"I remember now. Could the difference in strength that Ji Ping felt when he looked outside be the fifth eagle flag that Parthia mentioned to us?" Although he was slow to react in other areas, Li Jue was still very sharp when it came to remembering his opponents.
Just like the memory of the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, I still remember it to this day.
Therefore, the Roman legion that had been preached at the rally was basically not forgotten by everyone present.
"Light and shadow manipulation?" Hearing this prompt and thinking about what Duan Yun said, Sima Yi nodded affirmatively.
This kind of talent configuration is obviously different from what a normal legion should have, and it must have its unique role. At most, the positioning is slightly different.
"In that case, the opponent's positioning is a bit like..." After looking at this effect, Xi Zhong's mind emerged with his own elite legion.
Almost the same positioning and the same effect, the only difference is probably the way of implementation.
"What should we do now?" Duan Yun watched as more and more people came, and turned his head to look at the surrounding area. Apart from excluding some trap areas, there didn't seem to be much free space.
If so many people really had to stand there, it would be easy to squeeze out the space. Although the Feixiong Army did not care about this, the regular Xiliang Iron Cavalry was still needed.
"Which direction?" Sima Yi turned his head to look at Duan Yun and asked for the direction. Duan Yun simply stretched out his hand horizontally outside the camp gate to indicate the approximate location.
Sima Yi looked at the roughly covered area and became silent for a while.
Covering such a large area, could the enemy be a skirmish formation?
When thinking about the difference in strength that Duan Yun saw, that is to say, some places have many people and some places have few people, and they are not concentrated together!
But think about it, with this kind of talent and configuration, if the entire army assembled together, wouldn't that just tie their own hands?
“In that case, let’s see if we can drive the enemy out. If we can, then it will be up to you!” Sima Yi pointed at several surrounding camp walls and signaled to the other people present.
Li Jue, Guo Si and Xu Shu looked at each other and finally nodded.
Facing an assassin legion or something, as long as they can find them, they should still be able to defeat them. After all, the military force they currently have should be an advantage.
What followed was the mobilization and deployment of several people's troops, which looked like an army in battle formation.
Ispako, who was staying outside the military camp, watched the changes in the Han army camp and did not find anything unusual.
Isn't it normal to be prepared to defend against attacks after your teammates are attacked?
"There are also heavily armored cavalry?" After observing carefully for a while and seeing the armored cavalry behind Xu Shu, Ispaco's face became much colder and he began to think about how to stop this legion.
The talent structure of the Skylark Legion means that it is destined to be able to target any legion that relies on talent for defense and evasion, and with the advantage of the first move, it can achieve a very high winning rate.
Even in a chaotic environment, you can be unique.
But this cannot cover up the disadvantage of the Skylark Legion, that is, the daggers in their hands cannot cut through the opponent's heavy armor defense.
Even if you can use the dagger in your hand to suppress the opponent's natural defense, you cannot suppress the real armor worn by the opponent.
So after taking a look at the heavily armored cavalrymen holding spears, Ispako really wanted to turn around and leave.
If they are really hit by this thing, it is a question whether they can kill the opponent, but if they are on the enemy's march, the probability of being hit to death is extremely high. Looking at the plastic blade that is more than half a meter long, you can know how high the damage of this thing is and how strong its armor-piercing ability is.
However, military orders were as heavy as mountains and they had to be obeyed. If we said we were going to delay the Han army, we had to at least delay it to the point where it was effective.
Fortunately, this group of armored cavalrymen armed with lances was not the first to reach the main gate.
When he saw that the cavalry walking in the front was not the leather-armored cavalry of the Flying Bear Army, but a group of archers, Ispaco's face instantly smiled, full of joy.
Among the several Han cavalry units present, the one that Ispako least wanted to encounter was the armored heavy cavalry, followed by the fully armed regular Xiliang cavalry.
The best choice, naturally, is these archers and flying bear troops whose defense does not seem to be very high.
However, if he wanted to attack the horse archers, Ispaco knew that he had to be prepared to kill the enemy quickly in a short period of time.
If there is no way to severely injure the enemy in a short period of time, and then their teammates catch up and force them back, and restore the archers' long-range attack capabilities, it will also be very dangerous...
