God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms
Chapter 3343 Facing Reality
...
The effect of Cao Cao's banner pressing forward was quite significant, both for the Han soldiers and the Yuezhi soldiers.
They just have opposite effects.
For the Han soldiers, moving the banner forward was not just an order, but also a belief and a source of confidence.
If this war is not going to be won, why would the commander-in-chief possibly advance the banner and place himself on the front lines of the battlefield?
For some people who are good at comparing life, the situation is more simple and unpretentious.
The general is the soul of the army. If the general is not afraid of death, how many soldiers will be afraid?
Moreover, Cao Cao's prestige and credibility might be questionable in the Central Plains, but in the eyes of these Han soldiers, he was a trustworthy figure.
Especially since Cao Cao did not actually expand his territory or declare himself king, he was still a general of the Han army and could obtain some of the political credibility and prestige brought by the Han Empire.
Soldiers may have a variety of ideas, but at this moment, these ideas will come together to form a real and tangible goal.
Then move forward with this goal in mind and achieve the victory you deserve.
Wielding his spear, Zero sighed as he watched his thrust only produce sparks against the shield.
He was clearly hidden among the ordinary troops, and was so well concealed that he was barely detected. He was able to use this situation to quickly approach the enemy's banner and commander, Cao Cao.
However, this situation did not last long, as Cyrus ran headlong into Cao Cao's personal guard, namely the heavy shield guard legion commanded by Dian Wei.
What was clearly only a few dozen steps away felt like an insurmountable chasm to Serona at that moment.
Especially this guy in front of him, Zero looked at Dian Wei again and frowned.
An opponent at the same level, who is also focused on physical cultivation, and who is situated under the suppression of cloud energy, plus the opponent's ridiculously thick equipment.
Let alone a head-on confrontation under these circumstances, even a sneak attack wouldn't give Zero much of a chance of success.
A powerful individual who has broken through physical boundaries is capable of things far more terrifying than he could have imagined.
"Die!" Noticing Zero's gaze, Dian Wei realized something was wrong. This guy was so strong, yet he was dressed exactly like a common soldier and had gotten so close. It didn't seem right at all.
Dian Wei, wielding his heavy tower shield, unhesitatingly displayed his power—a power capable of utterly destroying anything in his path.
With a simple thrust of his spear, Zero personally experienced the terrifying power of this force.
The consequence of the head-on collision was that Zero recognized his own shortcomings even more and had the idea of fighting head-on with his opponent.
If this fight continues, his weapon might hold, but he himself absolutely cannot withstand it; this is no joke. Zeroa is indeed an excellent boundary-breaking expert, but he's only at the boundary-breaking level.
Even within the same level, there are different grades, which naturally illustrates the differences between them.
However, this thought did not last long, as Dian Wei took the initiative to attack, wielding his shield and relentlessly pursuing Zero.
Anyone who can withstand a heavy blow and survive must be a master, and a very powerful one at that. Coupled with the opponent's preferred methods and techniques, it's clear that they are not someone that ordinary people can use, or that their strength has reached such a level that it would be difficult to suppress them unless ordinary people form an army formation.
Therefore, when faced with such a master, whether it was to eliminate the opponent or to make it difficult for the opponent to play their due role, Dian Wei took the lead and strengthened his control.
As the de facto commander of the Yuezhi people, Gachari did not place all the possibilities and future on Serona.
Instead, taking advantage of this time when most people haven't reacted, they can take steps in advance to plan and arrange the follow-up work.
Without a core elite force at their disposal, Gachali was certain that if the fighting continued in this manner, they would be the ones who ultimately suffered the greatest losses.
But things have come to this point, and he cannot stop the war. He can only try his best to make up for the losses and reduce the damage under the current circumstances.
At least the outcome of this war will not significantly impact the Khyber Pass fortress. As for the rest, Gachali had long realized that if anyone were to be sent there, it would always be a minority.
Seizing the opportunity, Cao Cao, with his troops in high spirits and realizing the problems, launched a full-scale attack and quickly achieved results.
While Jiaqieli possessed exceptional command skills and performed admirably in command and dispatch, he lacked a core elite force to support his resistance. Consequently, even when the Yuezhi army arrived at their designated positions ahead of schedule or on time, their combat effectiveness and resistance against the Han army were generally weak, failing to meet Jiaqieli's command requirements.
Without the support of an absolutely powerful legion, there are very few who can stop them.
After Cao Chun's cavalry units advanced several hundred paces, they began to threaten the rear army commanded by Gacholi.
If the rear guard, which is responsible for covering the rear, encounters problems and is subjected to a direct and effective attack, how different will their state of mind and mental strength be from what they are now?
The rear guard and reserves are ultimately a fallback option, especially for people like Gacholi. These troops that are not yet in use may not be the strongest in terms of combat power, but they are the most reassuring, especially for the commanders.
Having backup plans and an army at your disposal will give you more confidence and boldness in command, leading to greater risks and higher returns.
If there are no reserve troops, the commander's mentality will often be affected. In the process of command and deployment, it is easy to rob Peter to pay Paul, and in the end, both sides will collapse.
As for the rear guard and reserve forces, they were placed in locations relatively far from the front lines for safety and adjustment purposes.
As a result, even though they were already so far away, Cao Chun, Ma Chao, and others were advancing so fast that they were almost able to get close to the rear guard reserve in Jiaqie.
"That's it, things are hopeless." Watching the Han army's banner advance relentlessly and their own defensive lines be breached time and again, Gachori finally accepted reality. (End of Chapter)
