God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

The strategy of requesting support devised by several large Yuezhi military camps was firmly and decisively implemented.

Knowing that their opponent was the Han Empire, every general, from top to bottom, with any sense of responsibility, did not take this matter lightly.

They made a choice with extremely high efficiency and decisiveness, and arranged for the corresponding personnel to go and request support.

Although it is a remote and impoverished area, finding a few experts is not a problem, especially among an army of nearly 200,000.

Several skilled warriors split into several groups, carrying letters of request and the joint signatures of various generals, and headed straight for the fortress at the Khyber Pass, trying their best to avoid Xiahou Yuan's troops along the way.

Realizing that these experts heading south must have requests for support, Xiahou Yuan intercepted and attacked them.

With his exceptional personal skills and decent archery, coupled with the support of the legion's strength, Xiahou Yuan managed to block a master of internal energy transmission who was trying to transmit information.

In order to convey the shocking message of the Han army's invasion, the Yuezhi military camp chose to use a joint signature method for corroboration, rather than relying solely on memory and personal credibility.

Because the things and changes involved cannot be verified by personal credibility.

In addition to signing their names, the leaders of each Yuezhi military camp also used their corresponding military seals to further confirm the authenticity of the information, which was the most straightforward and unadorned proof of information.

While a single military tally and seal might be susceptible to forgery, the possibility of forging multiple military tallies and seals is absolutely nonexistent.

Even just bringing together multiple military seals is an extremely terrifying matter, and something that requires high attention from those in power.

The leaders of the various military camps, focused solely on proving the matter, chose the fastest and most effective method, but overlooked the existence of Xiahou Yuan and his army.

Or perhaps they underestimated Xiahou Yuan and overestimated their own team's experts.

In everyone's eyes, sending a skilled person to deliver the sheepskin and evidence was a foolproof plan.

With their superior abilities, they can take routes and paths that most people simply cannot take, thus avoiding being surrounded and intercepted. Even if they are unlucky enough to be blocked by others, they can still destroy these letters and evidence in advance with their extraordinary abilities, thus ensuring the security of the information.

With the help of his legion's strength and his own mastery of the ultimate internal energy separation technique, Xiahou Yuan directly killed this Yuezhi man who was in the internal energy separation stage with a single arrow.

"It seems that Old Man Huang's method is quite good. Taking down the opponent when they are caught off guard is quite simple." After feeling the depletion of most of his internal energy, Xiahou Yuan put down his bow and looked at the master of internal energy who had been nailed to the ground in the distance, a smile appeared on his lips.

In fact, when Xiahou Yuan locked onto this expert of internal energy, he already had a similar feeling and judgment, and made preparations in advance.

Upon seeing the incoming arrow, the Yuezhi experts quickly assessed its power and realized its deterrent effect.

It's very strong, but still within a manageable range.

All he needs to do is mobilize his internal energy to force a collision, and then use the reaction force from that collision to escape into the mountains. As for the enemy who dared to attack him, it's better not to pursue him; if he does, he's ready to kill him in return.

With an army present, the Yuezhi experts would naturally retreat. Without an army, the question of who is stronger or weaker can only be determined after a battle!

With this thought and philosophy in mind, and recalling his lifelong skill in archery and horsemanship, as well as his unparalleled accuracy in judging the trajectory of arrows, he swung his spear and struck the arrow directly.

However, in this simple collision, the Yuezhi master died on the spot, the arrow carrying his body directly to the wall behind him.

After a brief search, Xiahou Yuan found the sheepskin used to transmit information.

Although I didn't recognize the Yuezhi script on the sheepskin, the orderly arrangement of the seals and the fact that there were more than one made me instantly realize the importance of this sheepskin.

"With so many seals and a skilled messenger delivering them, it must be extremely urgent intelligence." Having made this judgment, Xiahou Yuan gestured to the messenger not far away.

The messenger, having received the order, waved his flag and hung a special cloth on the flagpole.

Not long after, accompanied by the cry of an eagle, an eagle used to deliver messages landed on the flagpole.

"Pass this back to Cao Cao for judgment. We can continue to intercept the enemy..." Xiahou Yuan casually tossed the sheepskin in his hand, then led his troops to continue southeastward to further explore the Kabul River Valley region.

Not long after, the eagle cried out again and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight, heading straight north.

Cao Cao and his men, who received the message quickly, also obtained the sheepskin.

Unlike Xiahou Yuan and others who were unable to decipher the script written by the Yuezhi, Cao Cao had translators among his advisors who quickly translated and explained the contents of the sheepskin.

Having received this explanation, Cao Cao instantly gained a general understanding of his opponent.

"The army is large in number, well-trained, and well-supplied enough to allow them to rest and wait for the enemy to tire themselves out. However, they are leaderless and there is no commander who can control the entire army..." Cao Cao held the sheepskin tightly in his hand, looked up at the other side of the valley, and hesitated for a moment.

Although a considerable number of troops were mobilized for this expedition, it only numbered around 100,000, with only five or six legions being the truly elite units.

The enemy's exposed troop strength was roughly twice his size, and their basic qualities were in no way inferior to those of his other troops.

In addition, the advantages of being well-rested and waiting for reinforcements make it no easy task to take down the enemy in a short period of time.

"Notify the entire army, except for the logistics escort team, everyone put down their supplies and advance at full speed!" In just a few breaths, under the expectant gazes of everyone, Cao Cao made his decision.

With the enemy leaderless, this was a golden opportunity that would be lost forever. After all, the enemy had already sent a request for reinforcements, and once their commander arrived, it would be impossible to do so again.

Having an enemy commander versus not having one makes all the difference in difficulty. (End of Chapter)
