God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

It can be said that Li Jue and his men did not care at all about this kind of indiscriminate attack. They were originally focused on the enemy, and a small number of them hit their own side. How could that be considered a problem?
It's not even a problem. The intensity of their attacks is less than the damage they would do to each other during normal training.

Moreover, with the Legion talent activated, the damage taken can be easily recovered by simply hitting the enemy a couple of times.

However, the Second Trajan's legion was indeed quite tough, and it would be difficult to kill them.

So, after confirming that they couldn't kill the enemy in a short time, Li Jue, Guo Si, and others ultimately chose to have some of them hold off Trajan while others led the Parthian heavy cavalry to attack the enemy's auxiliary troops, in order to eliminate more of the Roman Empire's manpower in a short period of time.

Only by doing this could Trajan's army become cautious, retreat to some extent, or at least not catch up so quickly during the subsequent retreat.

If the fighting continues, the rapid collapse of the Parthian army could easily affect the Han Empire's own forces and retreat plans.

"This road is blocked!" Duan Yun stood with his spear held high, directly blocking the path of the Emperor's Guard, unleashing his aura and making no attempt to conceal his presence.

"The Han Empire's Army Soul Legion?!" Perennis recognized the army blocking his way instantly. After all, he had fought against the Second Trajan's Legion before and had seen it before.

Having realized this, Perennis and the Emperor's Guard did not rush forward immediately.

Perennis did not regard the Flying Bear Army's aggression and fighting spirit as mere rookies; they were truly opponents of the same level, and in some aspects, even superior to the Emperor's Guard.

Perennis glanced at the number of Flying Bear Army soldiers, his eyes narrowed instantly, and he began to think involuntarily.

Should we challenge them to a round?

The Han Empire's Army Soul Legion currently has fewer than two thousand men. In terms of numbers, they have the advantage. Moreover, with the Emperor's Guard's all-around capabilities, they are able to restrain the enemy in the battle and thus gain the advantage in war.

They were all cavalrymen, and all had unlimited stamina; they could fight on and on as long as they wanted.

However, from another perspective, as long as they are willing to pursue and kill, the enemy will not be able to escape, and final victory is practically inevitable.

Looking back at their own force of over 2,500 men, which was nearly 1,000 more than the enemy's, it seemed like they had a high chance of winning.

However, if we were to actually do that, the only thing to worry about would be encountering other units of the Han Empire's army during the pursuit, which would be troublesome.

After all, the Ninth Spanish Army had already suffered heavy losses and could not possibly launch an attack alongside the Emperor's Guard.

Perennis was somewhat speechless about Spain's current state.

The Lark Legion had already inflicted considerable casualties on the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, giving both sides a slight edge. With the Emperor's Guard providing assistance, their chances of victory were quite high.

However, the prolonged delay and hit-and-run tactics eventually caused some unexpected problems for the Emperor's Guard soldiers who were holding back the heavily armored cavalry. Xu Shu, recognizing the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry's predicament, astutely seized upon a major weakness and launched an attack using it.

As with normal harassment, the Emperor's Guard changed angles and approached the armored cavalry with lances. After getting close, they used their skillful techniques to kill some more armored cavalry soldiers, and then cut out along the diagonal.

However, at that very moment of cutting out, Xu Shu directly commanded his army to use the boost from the "No Starting Charge" talent to instantly increase the army's speed to the charge speed, while simultaneously switching to the Cloud Formation, giving the cavalry even faster movement speed.

The rapidly changing scene made the Emperor's Guard, who were already far away, realize that something was wrong. They quickly increased their speed and dispersed to prevent the armored cavalry legion from getting close to them and directly colliding with them.

Even if the Emperor's Guard is a military force with a strong sense of purpose, if they were to engage in a head-on battle with the heavily armored cavalry with lances, it would be a 50/50 chance for both sides to hit each other, with the latter having a very high probability of dying.

However, for Xu Shu, there was no need to attack the Emperor's Guard; he only needed to attack the Spanish Legion. The distance between the two sides was already shrinking, and the very existence of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry had attracted a lot of attention.

In this situation, the armored cavalry legion, which launched a fierce attack with bursts of speed, reached its charge speed directly without the boost of a starting charge. When it charged up and burst, it further increased its movement speed and the intensity of its attack. The cloud formation also increased its movement speed.

With so much speed boost, the speed that the armored cavalry with lances could unleash was comparable to that of some light cavalry.

At this speed, a heavy impact would easily kill even the Ninth Spanish, let alone the Ninth Spanish with its explosive frontal defenses, let alone the Ninth Spanish on the flanks.

Perennis reacted very quickly. After confirming the situation in the rear, he immediately led the separated Soul Force troops to directly attack the cavalry from the flank, putting more pressure on the enemy and forcing them to change their attack direction.

Unfortunately, Xu Shu, who was aware of the situation, was not about to let Perennis succeed. He resolutely led his troops and directly attacked the Ninth Spanish Army from the side.

As a result, especially as a consequence of being targeted by the Emperor's Guard, Xu Shu's cavalry, armed with lances and armor, suffered nearly a thousand casualties during the half-day, marking their greatest loss of life since arriving in this region.

Cao Chun, who understood Xu Shu's actions, did not hesitate. He directly repelled the Ninth Spanish army, whose central forces were almost completely wiped out, and then led his troops to retreat towards the central army.

As for the attack on the Emperor's Guard, that was something that needed to be discussed in advance.

"Never mind!" After careful consideration, Perennis finally gave up on the idea.

Taking down a military spirit legion with roughly 60% of its own strength in a short period of time is not difficult at all; some people have even done it better.

But not many people cared anymore, and Perennis didn't care either.

The speed displayed by the Flying Bear Army was so fast that it made people quickly forget about pursuing them.

"The Flying Bear Army, is it? Consider yourself lucky." Perennis nodded slightly, standing at the front of the army, silently observing everything, quietly waiting for it all to end. (End of Chapter)
