God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

Under the influence of darkness, both the Han Empire's army and the Yuezhi army were ultimately affected, resulting in a significant decrease in their organizational and coordination capabilities, thus impacting the upper limit of their collective combat effectiveness.

This situation is indeed more of a negative than a positive one for Gachari, whose overall military strength is not weak.

A large army that cannot leverage its organizational strengths and cannot coordinate with each other under the influence of orders will have little effect on suppressing a powerful army.

The closer they get to the combat power of a single legion, the more obvious the gap between the two sides becomes.

Having figured out this line of thinking, Gachali sent a messenger to Barak while preparing a backup plan.

Nighttime was a good time; although it affected the performance of his troops, it also facilitated their orderly retreat.

When a commander knows that the situation is hopeless, he should do his best to preserve his strength and adjust the state of his troops so as to gain more initiative or battlefield dominance in the subsequent war.

The Han army was indeed very strong, but not strong enough to inspire despair, nor powerful enough to forcefully break through their defenses.

This means that even the worst-case scenario is within their control.

After figuring this out, Gachali began to think about how his army should retreat and what to do after the retreat.

They fought to the death in this place, giving it their all. Even with his command and support, the soldiers fought valiantly and resisted to the very end. If they could kill 20,000 to 30,000 Han cavalry, it would be an extraordinary performance for them.

Even if the soldiers under his command are all elites trained by the Yuezhi, it does not mean that these soldiers can withstand a 100% casualty rate.

In fact, the elite regular troops of the Yuezhi, especially those trained in the northern mountainous regions north of the Khyber Pass, could withstand casualties of over 40%, and were still far from their limit.

However, for Gachali, even with an extremely high lower limit, and with the support of command, being able to have an even higher upper limit is still a difficult thing to accept.

If the Han army had the courage to risk 20,000 to 30,000 casualties, they could have easily defeated this army.

Did the Han army have the courage and conviction to suffer such heavy casualties?
Looking at the great banner that continues to advance, Gachali had no intention of questioning the courage and conviction of the enemy general.

Whether it's real or fake, this is the first time in all these years that Gachari has seen the Great Banner continuously press forward during a stalemate in battle.

While it's astonishingly crazy, one can't help but feel a sense of admiration for someone who dares to be so utterly depraved.

Of course, while he admired her, Gachali would absolutely not want to do it himself.

Even in the actual command process, they would keep a distance from the Great Banner. This was not only the case for Jiaqieli, but also for the vast majority of Yuezhi generals when commanding their troops.

The reason for this behavior is, in essence, Arvind.

In the past, it was common for soldiers to stand under the banner of their army and share life and death. However, this situation gradually changed with the arrival of Arendt, especially during the period of civil war and chaos.

Arvind and his legions, through countless kills and victories, made everyone realize that the banner was not always a good position.

With their oscillations and convergences fully developed, Arvind's Royal Guard can achieve efficient kills in a short time once the target and direction are confirmed.

With such a precedent, it would be utterly foolish to openly press the great banner forward.

However, such war experience and war sentiment are unlikely to appear in Gachali's mind.

Despite having high hopes for the Han army and believing in their intelligence, Gacholi's inner thoughts were extremely complex.

The commanders used one attack and strike method after another, but the enemy countered them in an orderly and efficient manner, which only widened the existing gap.

Given that it has been confirmed that the Han army commander is not a fool, the only reason the other side would dare to do this is because they are extremely confident.

Before long, having suppressed the complex emotions within her, Gachel saw someone appear beside her.

"Senior Zero? What happened to you?" Gachali was quite surprised to see Zero suddenly appear beside him, and then he was stunned when he saw the blood at the corner of Zero's mouth.

Who is the person in front of me?

The person before me is Serona, a super expert among the entire Yuezhi in the north, whose strength is unparalleled. There are very few people who can defeat him, and even fewer who can rival him. His specialty is assassination.

In the current battlefield, not only did the assassination attempt fail to be effective, but the perpetrator also suffered a serious injury, which seems abnormal.

"It's alright, we've met our match." After adjusting the movement and damage to his internal organs, Zero calmly stared at the serious-looking Gachari and said, "The opponent is very strong, truly very strong. A pure physical cultivator who has reached the limit. From what I've seen and heard, I doubt anyone in the current empire can be his match..."

Upon hearing this, Jia Que Li glanced at Ma Chao, who was still advancing, and then at the ever-moving banner. He felt the growing momentum of the Han army, especially as the banner continued to advance. The oppressive force and fear it generated were truly awe-inspiring.

However, Celona's attack and probe were not without results; at least they learned of more possibilities.

Realizing the strength of his opponent, Gachali had one less feasible plan or strategy in mind.

There is only one action left to choose from and execute.

“It seems we also need to prepare for a retreat. Even if it means cutting off our own arm, we must force our way out…” Gachel stared intently at Serona, pondered for a moment, and then gave the order that would be communicated next.

"I'm sorry." Faced with the order and procedures for retreat, Serona was somewhat helpless.

If both sides were unarmored, he might have a chance, but now both sides are suppressed by the cloud energy, and his opponent is fully armored with a thick shield. His spear thrust couldn't even penetrate the shield. How could he possibly fight? (End of Chapter)
