God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

Faced with Nakuru's words, Kailash, who had originally intended to tease him, instantly abandoned that idea and looked at Nakuru seriously, somewhat disbelieving.

If the defeat was due to underestimating the enemy and being careless, accidentally falling into the enemy's ambush, suffering heavy losses in a short period of time, causing unrest among the soldiers, then that could be explained away.

But the meaning behind Nakuru's words is quite simple.

The opponent was very strong, so strong that he was invincible, not because of his righteousness or arrogance.

"How many people are on the other side? How strong are they?" Kailash suppressed his inner thoughts and asked as calmly as possible.

The first thing to do when a war ends in defeat is not to assign blame or punish, but to understand the reasons and process behind it, and to analyze the phenomena that caused it, so as to better prevent such things from happening in the future.

Even if it means resorting to military arbitration, the current issue must be resolved first.

In response to Kailash's question, Rahul shook his head slightly, indicating his satisfaction.

The war has lasted so long, and everyone has made progress, even Kailash has made such significant progress, which is quite fortunate.

Although I'm reluctant to admit it, I can't deny that under Brahmanical rule, there were very few truly qualified and excellent generals.

Although being a general under a Brahmin caste has an inherent advantage—that is, being indifferent to the lives of soldiers and able to command troops swiftly without bearing the weight of their lives—sometimes this advantage can also be a disadvantage.

As long as it doesn't deplete oneself or others of the same social class, one becomes very casual, and sometimes even intentionally so.

Even Kailash, in his conversations with Nakuru, inadvertently carried some of these thoughts and ideas.

Thirty thousand soldiers—soldiers who had truly fought on the battlefield, soldiers who had experienced multiple consecutive victories, and soldiers with their own unique talents.

In the past, such an army would have been considered elite; even now, these are qualified regular soldiers.

Such a large number of regular soldiers sacrificed their lives without much change in expression or psychological burden. It's hard to say whether to call it outstanding or tragic.

"There were quite a few of them, probably over ten thousand. They were likely the vanguard of the Han Empire. The general leading them was a dark-faced man, incredibly ruthless." Nakuru recalled the Han Empire general he had encountered, and the scene he witnessed on the battlefield sent chills down his spine. He said with a hint of fear, "They were truly brutal. In just one exchange, Akamya was blown to bits, weapon and all. Internal organs and body fragments were flying everywhere..."

Arjuna's pupils contracted upon hearing this, and he was somewhat shocked. Although Akamya was not a master of internal energy separation, he was still one of the best in the Kshatriya Legion. Within the range of Qi Refining to Gang, he was a terrifying master.

Even with the suppression of the cloud, he couldn't kill Akamya in a short time.

Such a highly skilled person was actually blown apart by a single blow while under the clouds.

Is the other person really human? Or is it some deity descended to earth?
After glancing at Arjuna, Rahul recalled Akhamya in his mind and seemed to remember him somewhat. He then learned about the relevant situation.

The Kshatriya Legion is an army composed entirely of warriors who have reached the Qi Refining stage, so their strength is undeniable; they are all powerful individuals. Akamya, in particular, has risen to the rank of centurion through sheer force and skill—truly formidable power.

The appearance of such a player among the forwards is also a change made by Rahul in response to the situation of the Kshatriya Legion.

A legion whose entire members have cultivated Qi to the level of Gang is indeed terrifying; both its combat power and deterrent force can be described as excellent.

However, from the perspective of a large army, this excellence is not so great, especially when the entire army lacks organization and command nodes are not smooth.

Rahul wanted to dismantle the Kshatriya legion and then strengthen the entire army's command and combat capabilities, making it more resilient and harder to defeat.

Due to their faith, lower-ranking soldiers find it difficult to refuse orders from higher-ups, and the Kshatriya soldiers perfectly embody this principle.

Those with sufficient strength and higher rank can command others with ease.

With these people involved, Rahul will need to command fewer nodes, making him more efficient, faster-responding, and naturally more powerful in combat.

However, this idea was just that—an idea. The Brahmins had no intention of turning the Kshatriya legion into a bunch of dispensable centurions. Instead, they wanted to maintain the legion's size to intimidate others and show them what true power was.

Rahul himself was a member of the Brahmins, so he naturally understood the will of the Brahmins and knew that it would be very difficult to forcibly dismantle this legion, especially since the other side had a certain fighting strength.

However, the inability to force a command does not mean there are no other ways to achieve this condition.

The very existence of Akamya proves the possibility of certain shortcuts.

In the Kshatriya legion, someone who has cultivated Qi to the level of Gang might just be a lowly soldier, but if they voluntarily step forward, they can start as a centurion, or even higher.

If you serve as a squad leader in the Kshatriya legion, you will become a chiliarch later in life.

If someone like Akamya becomes a centurion, he will become a legion commander.

It can be said that as long as they leave the Kshatriya legion, they can quickly convert power into cash, becoming someone whose every word attracts a swarm of followers.

Of course, in order to achieve this more smoothly and better, Rahul even started to ask for freebies without any explanation.

Everyone can try this; if you don't like it, you can go back. It will remain effective until the war ends.

Using such enticing tactics, Rahul also drew nearly 20% of the personnel from the Kshatriya Legion to fill a considerable number of grassroots backbone positions. Combined with personnel who rose to prominence during the war, this effectively strengthened the combat capabilities and command and response capabilities of the grassroots backbone.

This action naturally drew criticism and opposition from the Brahmins, but Rahul managed to persuade the others to return by promising to return the group after the war ended.

They've already fooled him, and now they want to take it back? What are they thinking? (End of Chapter)
