Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

The mountain roads in Beigui are mostly a dozen to dozens of meters long. The so-called eighteen bends on the mountain road may be exaggerated in other places, but it is true here.

Therefore, even if there are only a few hundred meters left, Bakza fought and retreated all the way. Relying on the terrain and various simple defense facilities that have been prepared long ago, he is still quite confident that he can delay enough time with low damage when retreating.

Of course, fighting based on this combat idea is just to delay time. From the beginning when the front line was cut by the cavalry and the battlefield was gradually and continuously cut, whether Bakza is advancing or retreating, it is only a matter of time before he fails when his strength is not enough to suppress the opponent.

"Where is the reserve team! Why haven't they arrived yet!" When Bakza turned another corner and relied on the terrain to counterattack, he found that the number of his own troops had been reduced to a few hundred people. It was only thanks to the width of the battlefield that was only more than 20 meters. If it was wider, he would not even be able to stop the Han army.

"It may take some time for Aker to become a thousand-man commander. It's raining too hard today." The guards on the side tried their best to say something good for Aker, but in fact, even the guards felt that their own thousand-man commander was too slow. It took so long to organize a thousand-man assault rifle formation. You know, this is a war, and people will die every minute and every second!

Bakza cursed in his heart when he heard this, but Aker was a thousand-man commander he promoted, and he had always performed well. He could be considered a confidant, and it was impossible for him to betray him in such a matter. It seemed that it was really what the guards said, that it was raining too hard, and it would take time to organize the team.

So Bakza could only lead the elite backbone to support and prevent the entire defense line from collapsing, while asking the scouts around him, "How long will it take for the general to come!"

"It will take at least half an hour at the fastest. This is because there is a flood nearby, and the general did not return directly to Kabul before." The scout captain said expressionlessly. Before, the camp in the mountain road was attacked by the Han army. Bakza received the news, and the scout captain sent intelligence personnel to inform Ardashir as quickly as possible, but this speed of transmitting the news would take half an hour no matter how fast.

After all, no matter what, the intelligence personnel need to pass the information first. Ardashir will rush over after receiving the news and purging the army. From passing the news to purging the army, even if Ardashir does not delay at all, it will take at least half an hour.

Of course, this was the judgment of the scout captain. In fact, when the rain in Kabul increased sharply and the cold fog rose, Tavasdes realized that he and others were being plotted against, and Ardashir had already rushed over here with the Holy Death Knight and Nihawen.

So it didn't take half an hour at all. In fact, the intelligence personnel sent by the scout captain had already joined Ardashir and rushed over to the northwest entrance of the Kabul Valley.

"Do we need to hold out for at least half an hour?" Bakza looked at the chaotic situation ahead. If they continued to fight and retreat like before, although the losses would be small, they could not hold out for half an hour. Moreover, once they retreated from this mountainous terrain and entered the Kabul River Valley, it would be even more impossible to delay time. But if they fought head-on...

Bakza's face turned livid, and he called to his guards, "Go inform Aker and ask him to bring people to me. We must not delay any longer!"

The guards saw Bakza's ferocious face, and looked at the battle line ahead that had already fallen into decline. They did not dare to say anything more and directly took two people back. After all, everyone was not a fool, and Bakza's previous inquiries did not avoid them, so they also knew that they had to hold out for half an hour.

The terrain of Kabul is very special. The only way to enter from Kandahar is from the northwest. Once you get out, you will reach the valley between the mountains. When the Han army can spread out, how can Bakza, who can't even beat him in the mountain road, face the fully spread Han army?

You should know that Kabul's previous arrangements on this mountain road were all based on the idea of ​​dragging the Han Dynasty to death in the mountain road, but who would have thought that the small and medium-sized camps specially arranged on this road for blocking, that is, the camp that Guangyuan and others attacked at the beginning, actually changed hands like this.

You should know that the reason why the camp was arranged only about one kilometer away from the road entrance was, on the one hand, to find and block the opponent on the mountain road, and on the other hand, to facilitate rear support.

There is no need to say more about the former. There is a camp across the mountain road, and then various sentries and dark sentries are arranged in front of the camp for more than ten miles to block it. It can be said that if it were not for the heavy rain, Cao Ang and his party would never be able to get here anyway, and even if they got here, facing this camp, they could only choose to attack it by force, and there was no sneak attack.

After all, this is a closed camp built by hundreds of people. Even if there is a heaven-defying existence like Zhang Huang, who can kill those with a will strength lower than a certain level in seconds, the more than 20 Holy Knights who are the backbone of the camp are enough to block or pass on the message.

As for the top officers' attack, the suppression of the supermodel cloud is not a joke. A battalion of 600 to 800 soldiers, as long as they are fully equipped and still under the protection of the cloud, is not something that a special operations team can easily take down.

And since there is no way to take it down easily, there are naturally intelligence personnel who can ensure that the message is quickly passed back after encountering an attack, just like when Guangyuan broke into the camp before, several soldiers who saw Guangyuan turned around and retreated directly played this role.

This is why the Han army has done its best. Without being discovered by the enemy in front of the camp, it defeated this not-so-large camp with the fastest speed and the highest burst. However, Bakza was able to lead his troops into the corridor and began to block the Han army just after the camp was taken.

To put it simply, as long as the front camp was attacked, Bakza, who was blocking the road, would directly lead the thousand-man team of the rotation defense from the road camp or into the mountain road, or into the cliff wall to attack the enemy who attacked the mountain road at the same time.

However, due to the recent heavy rain, many soldiers of the rotation defense hid in the cliff wall. This is also the reason why Bashu and others just broke through the camp and rushed forward. Before they rushed a few steps, they even encountered the thousand-man team led by Bakza, and they encountered the short spears thrown from the cliff wall.

Because people are lazy, it rains, it rains heavily, even if Ardashir issued an order to stick to the rotation defense and never slack off, the veterans are more accustomed to running into the cliff wall, after all, hiding in the cliff wall will not get wet! And it is somewhat warmer.

So normally, after the camp on the mountain road was attacked, Bakza should have led the thousand-man team and his own three hundred guards to attack as soon as possible after receiving the news, and then cooperated with the six hundred to eight hundred people in the camp on the road to block the attack on the mountain road.

Although it sounds like there are not many people, in fact, this place is only twenty meters wide, and the mountain road is winding back and forth, so it is impossible to see the manpower clearly. You can pretend that there are a lot of people and horses, and just drag it out.

In theory, as long as the camp on the mountain road finds the enemy, it is basically impossible for the enemy to break through the camp. After all, the team behind Bakza will continue to follow up, and this kind of twenty-meter-wide terrain is used to add fuel to the fire. As long as the follow-up can keep up, even the Han army has no good way.

However, this time Bakza faced too complicated situation. First, the camp on the road was annihilated too quickly. When Bakza rushed in, the Han army was also charging into the mountain road.

Originally, Ardashir and Bakza chose to set up the mountain trail camp here instead of going deeper into the mountain trail because the mountain trail camp was in this location, and support from the road entrance could arrive in time.

And with the mountain trail camp in this location, there would not be the situation where the elite backbone of the camp fought desperately to defend, and then ordered some elites to retreat to pass on information. As a result, because the road was too long, the personnel who passed on the information were chased up and killed by the enemy's elite, resulting in the sacrifice of a group of people, and even no message was passed back.

In theory, the significance of setting up this mountain trail camp is that it is best for the open and secret sentries to find the enemy. If they cannot find the enemy and are touched to the side of the camp, after being attacked, they can at least notify the rear to send reinforcements to support them in the first time. Relying on the defense of the camp and the configuration of the mountain wall, hundreds of people can delay for one to two quarters of an hour, and the reinforcements of the own side will arrive.

In this way, the morale of the attacking party can be directly frustrated.

As a result, there were many accidents this time. First, the camp in the middle of the road did not discover the opponent in advance, then the camp in the middle of the road did not hold out until its own reinforcements arrived, and finally the attack intensity of the Han army was too strong, and the thousand-man team that Bakza brought in for rotation defense did not withstand the Han army in such a narrow terrain.

Or to be more direct, Bakza's personal guards and the soldiers on duty at the pass added up to just over a thousand.

There was no way, the reorganized soldiers that could be mobilized instantly were only the thousand-man team on duty and Bakza's three hundred personal guards, and half of the thousand-man team on duty squeezed into the cliff to avoid the rain.

To be honest, you can't say that they are not working hard. Didn't you see the powerful javelin thrown down from the cliff before? These were javelin thrown down by the soldiers on the upper cliff with all their strength. The javelin that could pierce Xu Yuan's shield can't be said to be working hard!

It can be said that one ring collapsed, and the other rings collapsed. But if we really want to say it, we can only say that this wave of heavy rain did break Ardashir's destiny, but it is also true that clouds will cover the sky and the sun.

For example, now, trying to delay time, Bakza, who has retreated to more than 100 meters near the road entrance, still has not waited for his confidant to lead the reinforcements to arrive.

There is no way. What can be done on a sunny day may not be done in a heavy rain. What's more, this kind of rainstorm with cold fog after being activated by the special Xuanxiang, this kind of cold rain in the mountains, can really kill people by hypothermia.

Originally, according to Ardashir's military regulations, after Bakza led the rotating thousand-man team to attack, the other people in the camp, under the leadership of the deputy general or the thousand-man general, quickly rectified, lined up and entered the mountain road to suppress the enemy.

How to say this idea, it is really good. If it can be implemented in theory, now that Bakza has retreated, the long spear suppression of his side can already launch a counterattack. However, due to the cold rain, the long spear phalanx has not been organized for half an hour.

It is not entirely because Akel and the soldiers are useless, but because the cold fog condenses at the entrance of the road, just like the fog at the entrance and exit of the mountain road. Affected by heavy rain and temperature drop, the fog is five points heavier. Heavy rain plus cold fog, not to say that it is pitch dark, but it is true that you can't tell people from animals ten meters away.

Compared with the general ability to change the weather on the Han side, there are too few people under Ardashir who can change the weather. Even though they have inherited part of the heritage of the Parthian Empire and can barely keep up with the pace of other empires at a relatively advanced level, they have a clear gap with the big forces in such details.

As a result, the reinforcements that should have rushed up when Bakza retreated to two or three hundred meters from the road crossing did not rush up to provide assistance until Bakza retreated to less than a hundred meters from the road crossing.

At this time, Bakza had already realized that something was wrong. To be more precise, the white fog that escaped from the road crossing had even covered his eyes. In this case, how could Bakza not know what was going on in his camp at the road crossing?

Even if there was no sneak attack, it was probably impossible to organize it now.

Well, Bakza did not consider the problem of sneak attacks, because logically speaking, this kind of terrain would not allow sneak attacks.

To be more precise, now we can only hope for Ardashir. As for him, even if he held on here, it would be meaningless. Without reinforcements, there is only a valley less than a hundred meters away.

Even though Bakza had ordered his own physiognomist to use secret techniques to change the weather and blow away the fog, so that the reinforcements at the road entrance could rush in as soon as possible, there was less than a hundred meters left. Even if the Han army paved a road with blood, it would not take much time.

"Charge, the road entrance is ahead, all soldiers follow me!" Huang Xiu had already replaced Zhang Ping and rushed to the front, riding the divine horse Jueying borrowed from Cao Ang, with his mind defense, defense accumulation, and attack release to the extreme, completely ignoring all attacks and just crushing through.

Relying on the amazing power of Jueying, a divine horse with internal energy out of the body, and the terrifying defense power of the Zhushen spear that can withstand two shots, he completely ignored the opponent's attack and buried his head in.

To be honest, it is really impossible to use chariots in this kind of terrain that requires turning back and forth, otherwise chariots are definitely the best solution to break through the front line.

In fact, this is also the key reason why cavalry can only be used to divide the battle line here, but not to win the battle. This kind of turning back and forth actually has a great impact on the mobility and breakthrough of cavalry. As for cavalry, except for the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, which does not need speed at all, any other cavalry will lose most of its combat effectiveness without speed.

This is also the reason why Huang Xiu led the backbone of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to crush them. There is no other way. The power of the combination of man and horse is mostly better than that of infantry. In the current situation, it is impossible to move forward by conventional means. Bakza is also a ruthless person. After realizing that he can no longer retreat, he chooses to forcibly block the backbone of the Han army with high lethality, and then rely on dense formations to block other positions.

Again, the top elite is very powerful, but the top elite is not invincible. Zhang Huang can quickly kill a hundred-man undead guard, and a hundred-man undead guard under the super model cloud can chase Zhang Yong, but Zhang Yong can knock Zhang Huang to death. This is a problem of compatibility.

Without this group of top lethal elites, the Undead Guards under Bakza really pushed the front line hard and fought with the Han army's elite step by step.

However, this entanglement did not last long, and was broken by Huang Xiu and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. The dense formations competed for defense and squeezed each other, right? Come on, let me show you what the strongest defense in the world is.

Huang Xiu personally took the lead, and the elite talent defense of the five lieutenants of the Southern Army accumulated for fifty years. At this moment, it was fully bloomed. The idealistic defense, which the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was proud of, was even more radiant, and the attack to remove this defensive force that was said to absolutely block everything was even more burning with flames.

One-time? As long as I am willing to charge it, I can burn it infinitely. This fifty-year golden body, crush it for me!

At this moment, the old guys were not surprised, but Zhang Ping was stunned. He could use his super defense and the cooperation of various talent structures to catch the spear, but this kind of thing with etching that can explode, Zhang Ping absolutely can't catch it.

To be precise, even veterans like Sun Er and Zhang Yong would have to dodge when they met it. Even those with internal energy out of the body and those who were not top-notch in breaking through the realm dared not take it head-on. However, Huang Xiu sneered and used his weapon to deflect the etched short spear, and then let this thing explode five steps away from him, and then continued to crush him under the explosion, and even the horse hair was not burned by the flames!

"Follow Brother Huang!" A group of people rushed up the road that Huang Xiu crushed out.

Bakza could command the Undead Guards, so he had seen and eaten it. Huang Xiu's performance was extremely amazing, but as long as there was talent, there would be shortcomings. Bakza could guess what the price or shortcomings of Huang Xiu's exaggerated performance would be.

After all, the Persian Empire had faced this kind of thing before, and the Wall of Sighs of Sparta was also this type of thing. In theory, if the attack continued to maintain a certain intensity, it would be broken sooner or later.

But the problem now is that it is impossible to maintain a certain intensity of attack for a long time to continuously attack Huang Xiu. After all, the Han army is not a pushover. A group of people protected Huang Xiu in front, and attacked both sides with all their strength, trying their best to collapse Bakza's battle line.

"Uncle Huang, can you still hold on?" Ba Chao sent a voice message to Huang Xiu.

"It can still hold on for a long time. This is the finishing move I created. I use idealistic defense as an intermediary and use defense accumulation to de-energize the attack. Don't worry, no one can penetrate my defense today." Huang Xiu smiled at Yamaguchi who was about to see the light.

Lying down, I fell into a very complicated contemplation. It was probably the most entangled time in my life.
