At this moment, Cao Zhang clearly realized what Han Xin meant by command. Was it really just a casual operation, using very little manpower to directly kill the opponent's biggest advantage?

"The things you learned are no problem for dealing with ordinary officers, but if you meet certain people on a large battlefield, I'm afraid that the opponent can make you unable to move forward or backward with just a finger. You still have a lot to learn later, at least how to finely mobilize the troops, this is something you can't get around." Han Xin's words emerged in Cao Zhang's mind.

Cao Zhang had never faced an opponent of this level before, so he didn't realize this, but this time Ardashir casually sent a legion to press forward. Now think about it, he can't block it, and he can't not block it. Beforehand, I thought it was the key to suppress Ardashir's morale directly.

I didn't want to fight in real life, but found out that this was actually a trap to trap the shield guard.

Xiahou Ba led his infantry to launch a strong attack on the elite headquarters extending from Ardashir. However, facing Ardashir who could see the battlefield clearly and command after the rain curtain was dispersed, Xiahou Ba's infantry assault had not yet worked. The three or four hundred Holy Death Riders had already completed the diagonal circling with the scimitar assaulters, and seemed to be planning to cut off Xiahou Ba's battle line.

Seeing this, Yan Xing did not dare to delay, and quickly asked Zhang Heng, who was closest to Xiahou Ba, to lead three or four hundred infantrymen and more than two thousand shadow soldiers to block and block horizontally, helping Xiahou Ba to block the knife.

After all, the killing and breakthrough ability of the Holy Death Riders is not a joke. Three or four hundred Holy Death Riders plus hundreds of scimitar assaulters may cut diagonally and directly cut off Xiahou Ba's battle line horizontally. If this happens, it will be a new trouble.

Although Yan Xing thought that his reinforcements had arrived and Ardashir was shrinking the front line, he was likely to retreat, but if Ardashir really gave him a chance to fight, it was not certain whether he would retreat or not. In fact, even if he retreated, he could kill a few thousand people, which was a profit, so he had to make as few mistakes as possible and let Ardashir go.

Under the leadership of Zhang Heng, more than 2,000 shadow soldiers bravely blocked the enemy and successfully delayed the Saint Death Cavalry for a while, allowing Xiahou Ba to successfully adjust the front line, but on the other hand, because of the troop transfer, the front line extending from Ardashir's headquarters on the outside of Zhang Heng also quickly returned.

In response, Yan Xing commanded his headquarters to shrink the front line expressionlessly. Even though the reinforcements had arrived, it was still the same thing. With so few people, if Ardashir really wanted to kill them, he could completely blow them up in at most an hour, or even annihilate them here.

After all, it rained heavily today, and the mountain roads were muddy. If they were defeated, they would not be able to escape.

Under the tacit understanding of Yan Xing and Ardashir, the two sides quickly completed the integration of their own legions. Then Ardashir mobilized the guards under Ghazni, relying on infiltration and attack to open the shield guard line, let the undead guards cover the rear road, and quickly retreated without any nostalgia.

"Is it over?" Cao Zhang commanded the emergency soldiers to give first aid to all the injured soldiers, and said very dissatisfiedly, "Why does it feel like Ardashir left as soon as we came?"

Few shield guards died in this wave. After all, the shield guards under Cao Zhang were also well-tested and had strong survivability. Even if they were restrained by the guards under Ghazni, they would not die on the spot.

Of course, there was also some reason why Ardashir did not kill the Han Dynasty's support army in order to delay it. After all, a wounded soldier needed two soldiers to carry him on the battlefield, which effectively consumed the main force of Cao Zhang's soldiers and reduced the possibility of the other side's pursuit.

Five hundred wounded shield guards can at least hold back a thousand soldiers, and they are shield guard soldiers. If it were other soldiers, it would be difficult to deal with the two hundred kilograms of equipment alone.

"The reinforcements have arrived. Ardashir can't take me down in a short time, so he naturally retreated. It's not worth it for Ardashir to fight us head-on." Yan Xing explained casually, and then he seemed to remember something, "Speaking of which, why are you two here? Are you the vanguard sent by General Xiahou? But if you are the vanguard, why hasn't the rear army arrived yet?"

"No, it's my eldest brother who asked us to hurry up and chase the general." Cao Zhang said carelessly, and Yan Xing was shocked when he heard this, and then looked at the blood in the mud, his face became much uglier. Old Cao's conscience didn't come, but the care of the prince.

"If your elder brother needs anything in the future, just tell me. As long as I have some strength, I will do my best." Yan Xing said very solemnly. He thought Cao Cao had a change of heart, but it turned out that Cao Cao still had no conscience. It was just that the prince found out about this matter in advance.

"Retreat now, while Ardashir hasn't reacted yet, retreat quickly." Xiahou Ba said dully. In this situation, he didn't want to say anything more, just retreat.

Yan Xing glanced at Xiahou Ba, and then at Cao Zhang. He vaguely knew the operation of this matter, but it was enough to remember this kind of thing in his heart.

"Clean up the battlefield quickly and retreat to Kandahar." Yan Xing ordered loudly. Even with the support of a huge number of shadow soldiers, Yan Xing suffered nearly two thousand casualties. Ma Wan, one of the eight generals of the flag, did not escape death in the end. Hou Xuan and Cheng Yi were half disabled, but now there is a way to treat the disability, at most it is a short rest, which is not too serious loss.

On the other side, Aldashir and Tavasdes had vaguely guessed that Cao Cao's main force might be blocking them in other positions and did not come to rescue Yan Xing. It is still possible to kill all the previous three people if they go back now, but Ardashir only thought about the current situation for a moment, then gave up the idea and retreated in the rain.

"Alas, I wasn't cautious enough before." Aldashir rode beside Tavasdes, "Yan Xing's ability to cast shadow soldiers is really difficult to master. Although it is not as good as the Third Cyrenaica Legion, it is still good. Extremely difficult to deal with.”

"It's useless to think too much. Now that we have retreated, don't think about it." Tavasdes said calmly, "I have informed Farez and the others that Cao's reinforcements may be blocking us in front. I guess Just over the Helmand River crossing.”

"The direction in which we are marching now is the only place where we can lay out the battle line. Other places are not suitable at all. It is normal for Cao's army to block us there. How are we prepared for the decisive battle?" Aldashir said calmly. , then thought for a while and said, "Using chaos to disrupt things is not suitable for me. Even if our army has the advantage, this plan will not bring out my commanding ability."

"The problem is that this method of combat is likely to be our most important method of combat in the future." Tavasdes sighed and said, "If you fight for command, you may be able to defeat the generals of the Han Dynasty, and you may be better than Cao Cao on the opposite side. More powerful, but there is only one you.”

"We also have many outstanding generals, such as Turansa, Bakza, Fares, Gurgan, Ghazni, etc. These people have no problem commanding an entire army, and they are all as talented as the other generals. "Heart abyss or mental image," Aldashir said with a bit of depression.

"Then, how many such generals do we have? To be honest, we squeeze out as much as we can, even counting Laguerre and the others. How many such generals do we have? Ten, twenty? "Tavasdes asked calmly.

"This is the last gift of the Parthian Empire. After these people are consumed, how much can Kabul produce?" Tavasdes didn't wait for Ardashir to speak and continued to ask, "Do you know how many generals like this the Han Dynasty had? How many such characters will be produced in the next ten years? Fighting for command will only lead to a lack of success."

"The Kushan Empire used to compete with the Han Dynasty for command. Such foundation was exhausted to the point where it was no longer possible. Our foundation is far worse than that of the Kushan Empire." Tavasdes said with a persuasive tone. .

Tavasdes saw clearly that Kushan's defeat was not actually a matter of how many generals and colonels died. If we really talk about the number of dead technical units, the Han Dynasty Navy had more dead people, but the Han Dynasty's education system could sustain it. After being maintained, Kushan's education system can only be regarded as barely acceptable.

As for their education system under Ardashir, well, if there is one!

In this case, if you fight with the Han Dynasty for command, isn't that asking for death? Once people finish this, it will be discontinued directly from now on.

The current situation in Kabul, with so many high-quality generals, is indeed more than enough to operate, but is this trained by you Ardashir? No, this is the essence left over from the Parthian Empire's invasion. Once it is consumed like this, there will be no more left in the future!

"But if you don't fight for command and fight badly, you won't be able to solve the problem." Aldashir frowned and said, "On the contrary, if I fight for command on a regular basis, in my current situation, I might still be able to win. "

"Victory at non-nodal points is meaningless." Tavasdes sighed and said, "Retreat first, and be careful this time. Cao Cao's main force is most likely at the crossing of the Helmand River. Wait."

Seeing that Aldashir had listened to what he said, Tavasdes didn't say anything else. He only mentioned this to tell Aldashir that the situation in the war had changed. You can't just focus on your own advantages. After all, your advantages may also be the same. The enemy's strengths, Ganren must start from the opponent's weaknesses.

Tavasdes conducted special research on what the Han Dynasty's weaknesses were, and finally found that the opponent's six dimensions were almost full!

Height, weight, and bone density include muscle-increasing needles, bone-strengthening needles, and a large supply of meat, eggs, and milk. The average height of ordinary soldiers is 170+ and the weight is more than 140 kilograms. Their bodies are well-proportioned and balanced, far ahead of their contemporaries.

In terms of will, there are professional propagandists who inform the soldiers of the reasons for fighting, and even on Lao Cao's side, ordinary soldiers have received the food and rewards they deserve, although their beliefs are not as good as those under Aldashir. Super elite, but at least they have the confidence to fight and will not collapse due to slight turbulence on the front line or unfavorable situation.

In terms of logistics, let alone food and grass, Tavasdes was lucky enough to grab all kinds of medical and emergency supplies once. He was only shocked. As long as the Han Dynasty soldiers were not killed on the spot and were withdrawn for first aid, the probability of reappearing on the battlefield was as high as 70%. %.

In fact, Tavasdes didn't know that some soldiers of the Han Dynasty were carried down for first aid. After being rescued, some of them didn't want to go to the battlefield, so they retreated if the situation was suitable. In addition, some soldiers were disabled even though they were rescued. The soldier who was carried down had only a 70% chance of returning to the battlefield.

In fact, through three miracle doctors, professional battlefield first aid personnel, and rear-line nurses constantly optimizing care methods, the mortality rate has actually been reduced to close to 10%.

It can be said that as long as they can be carried back, they can be saved with a high probability. This is completely different from the previous situation where there is a high probability of infection after being injured, and half of them died after they did not die on the battlefield.

However, if we want to continue to lower this mortality rate, it is actually not a problem of the level of emergency personnel, but a problem of nurses' care. In theory, after the first aid is completed, the mortality rate of the wounded can be reduced to 2% under the care of professional nurses.

However, Chen Xi can't find the problem at present, but the mortality rate of the wounded can't be reduced to 2%. This is a problem of the nursing level of the nurses. It's not Chen Xi's nonsense. It's just that according to Chen Xi's estimation, to reduce it to this level, the nurses must have a spiritual talent.

However, as of now, there is no hope, and Chen Xi's complaints are useless, because these nurses have really tried their best. Chen Xi personally inspected and didn't find any problems. In addition, when he went to the wounded camp to inspect when he was in Ganges, the wounded in the camp had a mortality rate two points higher than the average.

In a helpless state, the nurses can only find a way out by themselves.

For Chen Xi, this kind of emergency care is at a pretty low level, but for people of this era, it is already a very amazing level. Some veterans have been in and out of the emergency camp five or six times and are still alive. Just appearing on the battlefield is a morale aura for their own side! As long as I have a breath left, I will be a hero again in a month!

These days, if you beat the opponent to the ground eight times on the battlefield, and then the opponent stands in front of you eight times, what do you think?

Tavasdes didn't know, but in his opinion, a 70% survival rate is already amazing, but on the Han side, most soldiers know that as long as they don't fall to the ground on the spot and make it to the field hospital, they will basically not die. How can morale not be strong?

What Tavasdes finds most incredible is that the Han army actually carried out so-called literacy. When he first learned about the so-called literacy, Tavasdes was still thinking about what it was, and later found out that it was teaching literacy and addition and subtraction.

Tavasdes was confused. He was a top wise man who knew the significance of literacy and mathematics, but these things were not so easy to teach. Most soldiers these days could not even tell the left from the right!

For literacy, officers could only teach their personal guards at most, and it was beyond their ability to do more. After all, the cost of education was quite high for ordinary people even in the 21st century.

In this case, the Han Dynasty taught its soldiers collective literacy, and it was effective. At least the conventional addition and subtraction, direction, name, left and right, positive and negative, these common sense things were really taught.

This made Tavasdes feel outrageous. These looked simple, but when thinking about Qi Jiguang's recruitment of new soldiers, even the left and right needed to be taught and distinguished for a period of time. What was the situation in the third century? To be honest, it was really outrageous to teach to this extent.

At least, Tavasdes, who was born in the royal family, experienced the chaotic era, and saw the common people of this era, knew very well how much investment was needed to teach to this extent.

Education, even if it is not very good, will produce some capable people in the case of large-scale net casting. Don't think that learning to line up, call the roll, count, turn left and right, forward and backward, how many degrees to shoot, how far, is easy for children in later generations. In this day and age, if you have learned these and your own martial arts are not too bad, you can lead hundreds of people...

This is also the source of the Han Dynasty's endless supply of centurions, centurion generals, song leaders, and military Sima, as well as the increasing number of centurions and guards from the bottom.

The Yellow Turbans took their lives and died so many people, and there are not as many people who have been cultivated by Chen Xi in this way and on the battlefield for so many years. Although many centurions have reached this level because of the experience of the Yellow Turbans and then the education, it can be said that education is still very meaningful.

What makes Tavasdes feel nonsense is that he doesn't know how much money the Han Dynasty invested in education to reach this level. This is really education for all.

In fact, not much money was invested. To be honest, it was just a big boss who was engaged in opera who told Chen Xi that no matter how many textbooks you have, it is useless. It is okay to do some opera, drama and other things. No matter how shallow the textbooks are, they all have a threshold.

In other words, no matter how low-level the textbooks are, you need someone to teach you. If you really want to do education and popularize cultural knowledge, it is recommended to do opera and drama. You can learn the lines in these things by watching them. You will understand them after performing them more. Then you can learn the text by yourself.

Chen Xi was shocked after hearing this. In an instant, he quickly connected the things that he didn’t understand before. Indeed, for more than 99% of ordinary people in this world who have never seen a book in their lives, it is useless to study textbooks. There are very few people who can learn by themselves with textbooks, and most people don’t have the habit of learning.

Books have no meaning to ordinary people who cannot read. On the contrary, in the current situation of lack of entertainment and spiritual civilization, drama and drama are completely a dimensionality reduction attack, interspersing social moral education and knowledge classics into them, and performing them several times...

Chen Xi recalled that most of the old men of the same age as his grandfather were illiterate, but it did not prevent them from singing the complete "Three Mothers Teaching Their Sons" and singing the Qinqiang "Three Courts Hearing"!

The pronunciation is correct, the meaning is clear, and the only thing missing is the correct words!
