God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

Having never formally fought against the Han Empire's army, and only possessing past rumors and information from the Brahmins of the South, Barak could only prepare for the worst.

The rumors from the past were so brutal that they left people feeling uneasy, and the amount of truth and falsehood in the information provided by the Brahmins from the South was a question worth questioning.

The Khyber Pass fortress is of paramount importance, and its defense cannot be taken lightly. Any unforeseen event could threaten the entire national capital, Peshawar.

Even if the capital still has a considerable number of elite troops, allowing the capital to be attacked is itself an extremely serious dereliction of duty.

If the preparations were not thorough enough, the Han army, having broken through the geographically advantageous Khyber Pass fortress, would likely have had little problem capturing the capital Peshawar at that time.

Just thinking about what might happen, Barak knew in his heart how big the trouble would be, and that no amount of caution would be too much.

The unique terrain of the Khyber Pass fortress, along with the location of Peshawar, destined it to a highly special strategic position.

While having a large troop presence and strong defenses, there can be no room for carelessness, which inherently puts pressure on the defending general.

The advantage is that as long as you can defend the Khyber Pass fortress, you can basically get whatever you want. It's a place where the advantages and disadvantages are both very obvious.

Escorted by experts like Serona, Gachori traveled nearly 300 kilometers from his departure point to his destination, arriving the next morning after traveling through the night.

With proof of their original status as experts, Gacholi and his group had no obstacles and quickly arrived at the large, temporarily expanded military camp.

Walking through the military camp, after a quick glance at the surrounding troops, Gachali frowned immediately, realizing the problem with this army, or rather, several armies.

Despite having a unified organizational structure, identical military commands, equipment, and culture, the soldiers' behavior was completely unlike that of an army with a unified organizational structure.

Although there are many patrol teams and patrol arrangements, their patrol positions and areas indicate that these troops are still operating independently and have not formed a true collective, which vividly demonstrates the lack of a leader.

With an army of this size, can they withstand the onslaught of the Han Empire's army?
Just thinking about it in his mind, Gachali quickly dismissed this unrealistic idea.

Even if the number of troops is only half that of this place, and the soldiers' physical fitness is the same, facing such an opponent, Gacholi would still dare to launch an attack and achieve an absolute victory.

Not to mention the fighting prowess displayed by the Han army at this time, which was clearly superior to theirs.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to destroy so many of their military camps in such a short time.

They kicked over so many of their military camps?!
"Issue my order to notify the commanders of all military camps that no matter what they are doing at the moment, they must immediately drop what they are doing and assemble as quickly as possible. Anyone who fails to do so within three-quarters of an hour will be severely punished!" Having realized this, Gacholi no longer wasted time patrolling the camps and observing the army's condition. He began to prepare to take over command of this large army with the utmost decisiveness.

The Han Empire's army launched a continuous offensive in such a short time, defeating one military camp after another, demonstrating the Han army's extremely rapid advance. With such a rapid advance, there simply wasn't enough time for routine takeover procedures, or even for correcting or rectifying problems that arose during troop patrols.

The most urgent task now is to regain command of the entire army, effectively delegate orders, and enable this group of leaderless people to fight.

Otherwise, in a situation where everyone is fighting their own battles, even if they have an army of 200,000, how much combat power can they actually exert?

If they were to encounter some exceptionally skilled commanders who could influence and affect their command, it might even lead to a mutiny among the soldiers. In that case, the Han army would only need to suffer minimal casualties to completely crush this massive army.

Given the size of this army, if it were to advance southwards, could the Khyber Pass fortress truly withstand it?
Once the Khyber Pass fortress cannot hold out, the gates to Peshawar will be wide open, and the imperial capital will be under the blade of the Han Empire. The political consequences of this are something Gachali dares not even imagine.

Thanks to his noble status, reliable reputation and fame, Gachali's orders were quickly and effectively disseminated to the leaders of every military camp.

Upon receiving this notification, the responsible parties immediately stopped what they were doing and assembled at their destination as quickly as possible, not daring to delay in the slightest.

Although the wording was harsh, it was actually a good thing for many responsible persons.

When the sky falls, the tall ones hold it up. In the past, they were the tallest, but now that the sky has fallen, they can't hold it up. It's a sure thing that they're going to die. Now, an even taller one has arrived. Even if the sky really falls, it won't be them who die.

Given these consequences and potential risks, the leaders of many military camps wholeheartedly supported Gacholi's arrival.

With prior consultation and notification, any orders from the dispatched commander can be transmitted smoothly and strictly executed by the heads of various military camps.

The more orders a commander issues upon arrival, the wider the scope of their authority, the more responsibility they take on, and the greater the likelihood that they will be blamed if something goes wrong.

Based on the visible consequences, within half an hour of Gachori's order, all the commanders of the military camps arrived at the council tent.

Even though Gachali was rushing, he wasn't even the first to arrive at the council's camp.

Ignoring the greetings from those around him, Gachali went directly to the main seat, then interrupted the surrounding actions and sat down to wait.

During this waiting period, the leaders of the military camp arrived one after another and quickly entered the council tent. Looking at the silent Gachali, the people who arrived later simply bowed and quickly returned to their positions until everyone had arrived.

Seeing that the appointed time had not yet arrived and all the seats inside the council tent were occupied, Gacholi felt a sense of satisfaction.

At least this group of people isn't beyond redemption yet. (End of Chapter)
