God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

"The fact that even these scout teams couldn't send out any information suggests that the other side is no ordinary foe. We probably need to prepare seriously." Vincenzo naturally understood the benefits and implications of this reconnaissance system. Under such a system, the fact that personnel hadn't returned to relay information was itself a discovery.

While the size and actual combat capabilities of the army cannot be confirmed, there is at least a baseline, a baseline for predicting the enemy's personnel and combat effectiveness.

By working backward from this baseline, Vincenzo was able to deduce the lower limit of Ardashir's actual combat strength.

It can be said that as long as the second wave of scouts does not return, the Tenth Legion will be ready to take action. After all, the combat power displayed by the enemy is clearly not something that the barbarian legion can handle.

As for commanding and directing the barbarian legions, and making them exert their due fighting power, that was beyond the capabilities of the two of them.

However, there are still ways to make the army function without command, or at least not as a side effect.

"Let's prepare carefully and wait for their arrival. After all, anyone who dares to choose our camp at this time is either incredibly audacious and reckless, or they are incompetent at gathering battlefield intelligence, which is why they would do something so foolish..." As a knight officer, Virgilio had absolutely no desire to fight this war, and his words even contained some complaints about the enemy.

But despite the complaints, there are still preparations for battle.

With its formidable basic skills and high standards of discipline, the Tenth Legion swiftly completed the troop reorganization, bringing the entire legion into combat readiness.

Then, relying on their combat readiness, they further enveloped and radiated their influence over the surrounding barbarian legions, causing them to move into their designated positions, hold their corresponding areas, and be vigilant against enemy forces that might come from the corresponding directions.

“To be able to achieve this level, they are most likely the elite of the Han Empire. If Parthia can achieve this level, then this war might become more interesting.” After confirming the size and strength of the second wave of elite troops, Virgilio became more cautious in his words.

A barbarian elite force of 500 men advanced in a fan-shaped reconnaissance formation, splitting into two groups, and none of them managed to relay any information back. Their strength was self-evident.

"I'm afraid we've arrived!" Sensing the aura emanating from the air, Vincenzo's eyes regained their seriousness.

An opponent, a formidable opponent. I wonder just how far they can go this time!
"Something's not right. It seems the enemy legion is special, rather than just powerful!" Virgilio frowned as he looked at the slightly distorted air in the distance.

Although this sense of distortion was very weak and seemed normal, someone of his strength, when serious, would not be able to ignore this discomfort.

"Really? That's probably the Han Empire's air-manipulating unit. I heard they're very strong, and apparently they're an infantry unit..." Vincenzo, who had been somewhat serious, instantly relaxed a lot, even his words were a bit teasing.

If an opponent that even the Fifteen Founding Legions couldn't crush were to actually clash with them, the outcome would be truly unpleasant.

Unlike other Eagle Standard Legions which are primarily infantry, the Tenth Legion is a cavalry unit with very strong and well-rounded combat capabilities.

Even if the enemy runs faster than light infantry, once they are discovered and found, it's quite normal for them to be completely annihilated. "After all, they are troops of the Han Empire. We should be more cautious. After all, such a large coverage area doesn't seem like it's just one unit." After carefully observing the area where the air was distorted and uncomfortable, Virgilio's words became much more serious.

Upon hearing this, Vincenzo's attention immediately became focused, and his previous teasing intent vanished.

Facing one or two elite units is manageable; they can simply crush them. But if the enemy has a large enough number of elite troops, even they will be in big trouble.

They are very strong, but compared to before, they have actually gone down a lot of the way. They are still invincible, but they don't have that much self-awareness anymore.

Neither the knight officer nor the camp commander really cared about this.

Maintaining strength just a tiny bit above the world's limit is enough to ensure overwhelming others, and the saved power can be used to deal with the curse from the Empire.

At this rate, they should be able to wash away the curse in a hundred years. Without the curse's burden, they will become even stronger and naturally won't care about their current strength.

"Let the barbarian legions fire arrows, and at the same time send a portion of the cavalry to go around and see what their composition is." Virgilio wasn't afraid of alerting the enemy, nor did he have any intention of using the opportunity to plot against them. Instead, he wanted to reveal the enemy forces in the shortest possible time.

Whether you play it out or let the opponent reveal themselves, it's fine.

"It seems we've been discovered. The surprise attack has failed. The enemy's arrangement clearly reveals their intentions." Wei Yan, who had already copied Xu Huang's legion's talent, raised his hand and deflected the incoming arrows, sending them flying further away. At the same time, he removed the cover that was blocking the entire legion, preparing to deal with the upcoming legion war.

"Battlefield intuition? Or some kind of insightful talent?" After the opponent made such a move, a series of talents instantly appeared in Xu Huang's mind, a series of talents that could counter his legion's talents.

“These talents alone are not enough to become a strongman. The fact that the enemy saw through our army’s actions is probably just due to their own strength.” Trusting his own intelligence system, Ardashir gave the most likely guess.

The Tenth Legion is very strong, and it's normal for them to have such strength.

"Since that's the case, we can't delay any longer. We must strike first!" Realizing that something was amiss, Xu Huang didn't dare to waste any more time. He immediately took command of the army, adjusted the positions of the cavalry, and set his sights on the Roman army's camp.

If the established tactical objectives cannot be achieved quickly, then delays caused by these barbarian cavalry could lead to unforeseen consequences.

Even a large number of ants can kill an elephant, let alone a soldier with all four limbs intact and armed.

"Fire!" With the sound of the flags fluttering, Ma Chao, who was already prepared, led his cavalry in an attack. Once within a hundred paces, he pulled the trigger of the single-shot crossbows carried by his horse. (End of Chapter)
