God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

When the Ninth Spain and the Fifth Skylark left, the place became much quieter, and the inventory of the battlefield soon produced results.

After personally confirming the result, Cao Zhen came to Cao Chun with a look of sorrow, not looking relaxed at all.

"Very bad?!" Seeing Cao Zhen like this, Cao Chun still asked.

"We suffered more than 1,500 casualties..." Cao Zhen added a number that made Cao Chun feel heartbroken, so that his expression, which had originally been calm, was no longer calm.

When Cao Chun was about to ask, Cao Zhen added, "The actual number of soldiers killed in the battle was less than 500, most of them were wounded, and most of the casualties occurred on the left wing."

Cao Chun didn't feel surprised by the result, but he still felt relieved inside.

Then, the vigilance towards the Fifth Skylark was raised to another level.

When it was obviously not the entire Skylark Legion's attack, just a large-scale assault caused him nearly a thousand casualties. The effect was too terrible.

It can be said that if it weren't for the armor they were wearing, they would have been seriously injured this time.

"What about the casualties of the Ninth Spanish Legion?" After confirming his own situation, Xu Shu directly asked about the opponent's situation.

"Just over five hundred. If we leave out the Fifth Skylark, our casualty ratio would be even higher..." Faced with such an inquiry, Cao Zhen actually gave a number that was not particularly bad.

However, when faced with this number, both Xu Shu and Cao Chun frowned.

The Ninth Spain they faced was not the Ninth Spain in its prime at all. Before the encounter, the Ninth Spain had already suffered a tragic war, and it had lost a lot of willpower, physical strength, and even consumable weapons.

Then they were fighting in the mud, with only half the number of people, but still suffered almost the same casualty ratio, which was simply shocking.

"Ninth Spain is indeed a strong opponent. It is not as simple as we imagined. The opponent is really strong." Cao Chun thought about it and comforted Cao Zhen, telling him not to be confused by the numbers in front of him.

Xu Shu, who was watching the entire process nearby, understood the cumulative consequences of the battle better than Cao Chun.

In the early stages of the battle, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry suffered far greater losses than the Ninth Spanish Cavalry. It was not until the silt was completely formed that the casualty ratios of the two sides gradually became closer.

And as the fight continues, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry's fighting spirit is further enhanced. The improvement of will attributes and the exercise of self-subjective initiative also strengthen other abilities under the strengthening of the circulation system.

It was because of this that the casualties of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry gradually became equal to those of the Ninth Spanish Cavalry. After that, with the continued improvement of their willpower and the help of their numerical advantage, they began to gradually gain the upper hand.

Although this process is slow, it is also a relatively steady approach, which is why Xu Shu believes that Cao Chun will win in the end.

Of course, as long as you are still on the battlefield and as long as you don’t die during the war, you will definitely become stronger.

Not only the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are getting stronger, but the Ninth Spanish Legion is also getting stronger.

The Ninth Spanish Team, which had never attempted a non-starting charge on muddy land, also went from being unfamiliar and unskilled at the beginning to becoming proficient through practice.

After all, after years of training, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry has an extremely good foundation, which is enough to turn it into reality step by step under the influence of war and strengthen itself. It can be said that facing such an opponent who is rapidly improving in strength, if you cannot improve your strength with it, you may really be killed.

Under the pressure of this life-and-death crisis, the speed of Spain's progress can be imagined.

However, even so, the progress of the Ninth Spain still could not keep up with that of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

It can be said that if the Fifth Skylark had not notified and arrived in time, Tacitus would have really had to take a gamble and break out from that bright front of light.

On the battlefield, there will always be a time when you have to go all out. Going all out may still give you a chance of success, but if you give up, then you are doomed.

Fortunately, the fifth Skylark came at the right time, so the ninth Spain naturally chose a safer approach.

Xu Shu, who also had this understanding, felt the tranquility of the battlefield, and his expression changed instantly. He turned his head to look at Cao Chun and asked directly, "Zihe, don't you think this battlefield is too quiet?"

Hearing this, Cao Chun was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and looked around.

There was basically no sound of weapons colliding or swords waving around, only the sound of raindrops still falling.

Under normal circumstances, this is really nothing.

But this was the battlefield after the Roman legion launched a surprise attack, especially the attack from the opposite side, which could no longer be called a night attack, but a naked assault and decisive battle.

"Damn it, I almost forgot this. Notify everyone and return to the army!" Cao Chun finally remembered what he had forgotten. He was so obsessed with the increase in strength and the improvement in the soldiers' willpower that he forgot that the Romans had more than just these few people.

The Romans who are not on the battlefield now are not just one or two people, but a real army.

Not to mention the Roman army in the city, the Roman reinforcements this time alone numbered tens of thousands. How could there be only so few people?

Having dispatched such a large number of elite troops to launch the attack, Cao Chun did not believe that the remaining Romans could stay calmly in the camp and laugh about the lives of others.

Xu Shu, who also realized this, finally understood what kind of mistake he had made.

The current tactical priority was placed higher than the overall tactical priority, so much so that he only reacted now.

Although he was in charge of the government, the army at this time was commanded by Sima Yi and theoretically was also in charge of it. When he came to this direction, he only had to be responsible for the army in that direction.

However, Xu Shu was also aware of the situation of the Han Empire coalition forces. If something was really wrong, it would be really troublesome.

On the other side, Sima Yi, with Duan Yun, Li Jue, Guo Si, Ma Chao and others, a cavalry of more than 20,000 people, directly blocked the battlefield. Looking at the opponent's army, he felt a little scalp-tingling.

The Romans, with nearly 60,000 infantry and less than 10,000 barbarian cavalry, looked at the Han Empire army with a steady and cautious attitude.

It can be said that both sides in the confrontation maintained restraint.

Because at this time, neither Ganasis, the Duke of the Eastern Roman Empire, nor Sima Yi of the Han Empire were sure of victory. (End of this chapter)
