Chapter 850 Cross-regional cooperation

Both sides showed their skills and exchanged a wave of casualties.

Although because of the phantom soldiers, Rome's casualty ratio is quite good.

After all, phantom soldiers are worthless, and exchanging fifty for one is a huge profit.

However, it was obvious that the initiative was still in the hands of the Qing and Mongolian armies, and both sides used light cavalry to suppress the enemy.

Zhuge Liang was not in a hurry. How could he not know the flaws in the Roman military system? So he prepared some things to make up for the shortcomings in this regard.

The two sides tested each other while maintaining extreme restraint, and no one was willing to take the initiative.

The same was true between the Qing army and the Mongolian army. Neither side wanted to be the target that attracted fire.

After all, for the Qing army, Xinghan was a tiger and the Mongols were wolves. If they drove away the tiger and then let the wolf into the house, wouldn't that be a bit ridiculous?

"Report, Your Majesty, news has come from Central Asia that Chu Lingyin and Mr. Xu Shu have successfully infiltrated and supported the resistance movement in Central Asia. Currently, large-scale unrest has begun to break out in Central Asia and the Mesopotamian region!"

The senators of the Roman Senate brought good news to Zhuge Liang.

"It seems that Yuanzhi has made progress again. Not only can he see through the flaws in things, but now he can even see through the flaws in people's hearts!"

Zhuge Liang was amazed. Although Xu Shu was far away in the Western Regions, he single-handedly promoted changes in Central Asia and the Mesopotamian region and even influenced them. This was a typical template for a strategist.

"Let Kirby lead his men to add fuel to the fire and use the phantom warriors to attack the eastern provinces!"

Zhuge Liang decisively ordered Kirby to cooperate, although it was just a pretend cooperation, but the trend of unrest in the Mesopotamian region was bound to increase.

No matter how reluctant the Qing army was, they had to move.

In the current territory of Rome, these Romans from another world know too well how to make themselves uncomfortable.

The Qing army could not sit idly by and watch the eastern provinces being occupied, so they had only one choice, which was to launch a fierce attack to prevent them from joining forces with the rebels in the Mesopotamian region.

"Do we have a good chance of winning if we fight?"

Benito asked somewhat puzzledly. According to his observation, their chances of winning were slim.

But Zhuge Liang's calm attitude made him wonder if there was something he had missed.

"It's hard to be absolutely sure in a war, especially when both sides are strong and have no logistical problems, victory or defeat is hard to guarantee."

Zhuge Liang waved the feather fan in his hand, still appearing calm and composed.

There was nothing wrong with Benito's observation, their chances of winning were just very slim.

The confidence on Zhuge Liang's face made Benito want to complain, but in the end he didn't say a word.

"Don't worry, although the chance of winning is small, it's not completely impossible!"

Zhuge Liang didn't say much when he saw this, but just gave Benito a reassurance.

Benito didn't know whether this reassurance was true or false, but Zhuge Liang was different from other generals and officers. He was a military god who could not be guessed by common sense.

So even though Benito found that his chances of winning were slim, he remained unshakable. With Zhuge Liang as his pillar of support, he had nothing to fear.

As long as you accumulate advantages bit by bit and proceed according to your previous plans, you will most likely be able to achieve the ideal outcome.

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly and was not too worried about the trouble they would encounter next.

Benito adjusted his mentality. He was very clear about his position, which was to be a tool to assist in command. Since Zhuge Liang was confident, he must have his reasons. Benito thought about just following him.

As expected, Zhuge Liang elaborated in detail how to use the changes in the Xuanxiang military formation to restrain the weaknesses of the Qing army and the Mongols themselves.

After this move, everyone present understood what Zhuge Liang was planning, and their confidence increased greatly.

Although they believed in Zhuge Liang, they still needed to know some practical measures before they would feel at ease.

"Okay, go and carry out the plan!" After Zhuge Liang finished explaining his arrangements, he called out to the officers and generals present.

Benito, who stayed behind as the deputy, frowned as he noticed that a lot of people were missing from the meeting.

Especially, Nigel and March, these two did not show up at all.

Zhuge Liang's command style tends to be all-round, so to a certain extent, he is also a general. The strength of the officers under his command will also affect the upper limit of Zhuge Liang's performance.

"I arranged for them to go to other places to prepare for an ambush!"

Zhuge Liang also noticed Benito's confusion, and casually set up a soundproof barrier and spoke.

Benito was puzzled when he heard this. That wasn't right. Didn't Nigel and Marche have roles in the previous arrangement? Why were these two suddenly thrown out?

"There is no need to worry about Marche, as he is an experienced man. Nigel's talent as a monarch is also very useful. With the two of them around, we can save ourselves a lot of trouble." Benito said cautiously.

"They have their own tasks!" Zhuge Liang sighed. He actually knew that what Benito said was right.

But the problem is that it is difficult to prevent thieves from robbing your home even if you are on guard day and night.

He couldn't do anything about the information that had already been exposed, but the subsequent information must not be leaked directly.
If information leaks out under such circumstances, then there must be a traitor.

“Although we don’t know how the other party intercepted our information, it is nothing more than a few variations of the method, and the best way is to eliminate it from the root.

Communicating through will, even those beings that could read spoken language could only scratch the surface, especially after Zhuge Liang set up a soundproof barrier, it was almost impossible for information to leak out.

"I have other arrangements for them. If you don't want to find them, don't try to guess. It's best to keep this thing away from everyone's eyes and ears."

Benito nodded, not quite understanding. No matter what, since Zhuge Liang had made arrangements, he didn't have to worry too much. This time he was just out of curiosity.

After Zhuge Liang gave the order, the entire army began to move quickly, and almost all of Rome's main forces were placed on the Mongolian side by Zhuge Liang.

Marche and Nigel both smiled bitterly after watching the army leave.

The task that Zhuge Liang assigned to them was simple, which was to lead an army composed of Roman barbarians to snipe the Qing army.

"Achino, Africanus, the three of us need to discuss this." Marche was a little helpless. Zhuge Liang gave him a troublesome task.

He didn't know what Nigel's arrangements were, but Zhuge Liang didn't say anything to him and just let him play freely.

Looking at the Military Soul Legion, the Eighth Giant Legion, and the Twelfth Thunder Legion assigned to him, they are all assault legions.

Marche couldn't help but feel a little headache. He looked at Achino and Africanus, and then looked at himself. Zhuge Liang really treated him like a beast of burden. "General Marche, when the king left, he told us that after he left, everything would be under your command."

Achino clasped his fists towards Marche and spoke very formally.

"Well, then we will take the initiative and catch them off guard!"

Marche was furious, but there was no other way. Offense was the best defense, and the gap in mobility between the two sides was too big.

So Marche planned to attack the camp. After all, the soldiers needed to rest and the horses needed to be fed.

The cavalry will never carry much supplies with them. If they can destroy the camp and disrupt part of the opponent's logistics, they can fundamentally limit the opponent's endless harassment.

Several of their legions are assault legions, and there seems to be no better way except to fight head-on.

If we fight with the enemy's cavalry in the wild, we will probably be kite-killed.

Marche didn't know whether Zhuge Liang wanted him to do this, but for now, he had no choice but to do so.

After Zhuge Liang learned about Marche's movements from Palmiro, he smiled and did not issue any orders.

The enemy can eavesdrop on their command plans and even monitor their telepathic communications, so they might as well just use their consciousness to coordinate operations.

Zhuge Liang still trusts the abilities of Marche and Nigel. Under such circumstances, they will definitely be able to do their best.

And these optimal solutions were finalized after Zhuge Liang allocated the troops.

Taking one step ahead is not impossible for Zhuge Liang.

On the other side, Nigel looked at Maximinus, Macrinus, Maximin, and the Fourth Eagle Flag Fearless Macedonia under his command, and made the same decision as Marche.

Although the two were in different locations, they simultaneously chose to attack instead of defend.

At first glance, there is no connection between the two, but considering Zhuge Liang's actions, the routes chosen by the three will eventually converge at one location.

The offensive routes seem to be unrelated, but they will be connected after the breakthrough.

It is an implicit cross-regional coordinated operation.

And all this is progressing steadily under Zhuge Liang's arrangement.

It's like hammering nails into the air and forcing fate to change according to one's own ideas.

The war broke out completely during a test.

Marche took the lead in attacking. The original Sixth Triumph, after being promoted to the Military Soul Corps, abandoned the organization of the Sixth Eagle Flag and became the current Triumph Guard Corps.

But giving up the organization does not mean giving up the eagle flag.

At this stage, the Triumphal Guard Corps is still using the original eagle flag blessing. Under this blessing, the triumphant soldiers will become little giants, and this change is completely controlled by will and is the complete manifestation of will.

Completely different from them is the Eighth Giant Legion, which has abandoned everything and completely turned to the path of quality improvement, activating the power of giants and turning into tall giants.

One of them represents the Military Soul Corps, the most brilliant will, and the other represents the Quality Corps, the most simple quality.

Both are quite representative legions, and they have one thing in common, that is, they are strong.

"Throw a spear!"

Under the command of Qianfu, the spear throwers in the rear of the Triumphal Guard Legion threw their spears forward with all their might. Thousands of spears directly covered the target.

However, facing such a blow that was enough to kill an ordinary opponent, it was indeed ineffective against the Eight Banners Cavalry. The Eight Banners Cavalry basically did not even try to dodge, but simply stood where they were and pushed away all the attacks.

After all, this kind of covering attack requires absolute numbers, and they don't take these sparse spears seriously at all.

Seeing how ferocious the Eight Banners cavalry were, the soldiers of the Triumphant Guard Corps directly took out the Zhuge Crossbows they carried with them.

This weapon named after Zhuge Liang is the product of joint research by Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying. It can fire ten arrows per second and is extremely powerful.

Zhuge Crossbow exerted its tremendous power at this moment. The absolute number formed an impenetrable wall to suppress the Eight Banners Cavalry.

This time, the Eight Banners Cavalry looked extremely embarrassed. They could only try their best to protect the vital parts around their bodies and ride their horses towards the Triumphant Guard Corps.

But by the time the Eight Banners cavalry charged forward, they had lost hundreds of men under the attack of Zhuge Liang's crossbow.

In such a chaotic battlefield, Zhuge Crossbow's strength and accuracy are terribly high, and if you're lucky you can even kill three or five people.

"Rain of arrows suppress!"

The Qing army shouted, and a large number of archers drew their bows and arrows to teach the Triumphant Guard a lesson.

However, the soldiers of the Triumphal Guard Legion did not try to dodge. After all, it was impossible to avoid this kind of covering attack, so they just took it head-on.

Although it is not as specialized in defense as the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, its defensive power is enough to ignore most attacks.

But the Triumphal Guard Corps is a military soul corps after all. After the will can be transformed into quality, every soldier is transformed into a little giant, and the defense mode is also idealistic defense. Ordinary attacks cannot cause any damage at all.

The Eighth Giant Legion, following behind the Triumphal Guard Legion, led by Africanus, launched a brazen surprise attack.

They were more afraid of long-range attacks and concentrated fire, so after passing the most dangerous window period, they began to explode.

The wind and clouds reversed, and a huge cloud funnel appeared above the Eighth Giant Legion at the moment when Africanus waved the eagle flag.

The surrounding essence of heaven and earth was transformed into starlight through the eagle flag and poured madly into the bodies of the soldiers. The soldiers who reached the level of the Royal Guard purely by relying on basic qualities were madly absorbing the starlight.

In just a moment, the soldiers of the Eighth Giant Legion completed their mutation. Their muscles began to swell, and their flesh-colored skin was quickly covered with metallic color.

They transformed into a larger giant army of the Triumphant Guard. Without any fear, they relied on their terrifying size and unimaginable strength to directly ravage the battle line in front of them.

The giants who avoided the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry, relying on their strong bodies, easily suppressed the Qing army's Baishan Heishui Iron Pagoda soldiers.

The qualities displayed by the giants have completely surpassed the three ordinary talents. Pure strength and defense, combined with their tall stature, the giants brandished their weapons and tried hard to defeat the surrounding besiegers.

What kind of legion is the most difficult to deal with? It is the kind that looks nothing special but is extremely powerful and has very formidable defense. On the battlefield, as long as you cannot kill the opponent and the opponent can output continuously, then you are not far from failure.

The giants rushed forward, knocking away heavy infantry, spear and shield soldiers, and spear formations. The brutal giants were like running dump trucks, directly knocking away all the Qing troops blocking the way.

As for the opponent's attacks, most of them are useless.
