God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

Even with such a complicated mentality in his heart, Miseliu could not change the situation he was facing.

Faced with increasing pressure, Miseliu felt extremely bitter inside, but he could only grit his teeth and hold on.

But Cesianes was completely different. After sending Micellius and his troops off the ship, he left some food and then took the ship south.

There was absolutely no idea of ​​staying on the river, supporting the Misai River, and protecting the Misai River's retreat.

Anyway, he is just an ordinary Kshatriya. So what if he has some strength?

He actually dared to reject his suggestion. He was simply courting death!

Under the current circumstances, one must either completely capture the pass and give himself a chance to survive, or die on the battlefield and be considered as serving his country with loyalty.

Of course, Cecianes, who thought so in his heart, would think about how to achieve victory on the battlefield even if he had to suppress his inner dissatisfaction.

And Cesianes was very interested in the idea he proposed. Micellius was unwilling to take such a risk with his army and make such a plan, but this did not mean that Cesianes would be afraid.

Go south along the river, re-enter the Bay of Bengal, head west along the coastline, then follow the river between the two mountain ranges, head north, and reach the pass river between the two east and west mountain ranges.

It looks very close on the map, but in fact the distance between the two passes is about forty or fifty miles, and the river in the middle actually separates the two sides.

By placing the ships of their own fleet in the middle, they can completely solve the communication and exchange between the two passes.

In this situation, as long as Miseliu could break through the pass in the east, there would be no problem whether he could defend the pass or not.

Even if there was a lack of food and troops, Cecianes could slowly transport them through such rivers.

In the absence of a shortage of food and troops, defending the pass with terrain advantages can be said to be a piece of cake.

It would be no problem at all to hold out for a few months, cut off the enemy's food supply, and prevent their food and troops from reaching the front line, so that the main force on the front line can complete the annihilation battle and avenge the previous defeat.

Even if an accident really occurred and the Han army's attack power was extremely strong, causing their defense to fail, there would be no problem at all.

At that time, the remaining troops will withdraw from the pass, come to the river, take boats, and retreat along the river, which can also ensure the safety of the leading personnel.

Even if time is insufficient, if necessary, the boats can be placed across the river to forcibly block the enemy.

However, if they did so, the navy would suffer a huge loss of power.

Under such circumstances, they cannot use the ruling power and circulation system that they are good at, and they dare not use it.

Because although that kind of system can provide a huge boost to one's own side, the boost it can provide to the enemy's army is much greater than that to one's own navy.

Cecianes, who made the plan and executed it, had the idea of ​​using the army as cannon fodder, but he just wanted the other side to die a worthy death.

In other words, even if they are cannon fodder, they must be made valuable, and the value of their actions must be higher than death itself.

In other words, life or death is not important, what is important is how to accomplish this task firmly and forcefully. Annihilate the army of the Han Empire, this is an order that can make people's blood boil and their qi surge just by hearing it.

However, after waiting for a long time, Cecianes still did not see the day when the flag was changed at the eastern pass of the mountains.

The entire naval force stayed in the river like a fool, blocking the communication and exchanges between the two passes.

The existence of this fleet was also discovered by the soldiers stationed at the western pass, and they gathered relevant intelligence and sent it to Zhang Ren in Wenjia area.

It was precisely because of this information that Zhang Ren completely dispelled his thoughts.

The current war situation is becoming increasingly clear. The number of soldiers and troops deployed by the Kushan Empire is indeed huge, far beyond his imagination, but the number of people he has under his command is also not small.

In the current situation where his retreat is cut off, Zhang Ren actually understands that he only has a few options.

One is to wait, wait for the water level to gradually recede, and then recklessly carry out endless forced collection of food in the area actually controlled by the side in the Wenjia area, to ensure the supply of food, wait for the subsequent passes to be opened, and the import of food.

The advantage is that you don't need to think too much, you just need to delay it. The disadvantage is obvious. If you lose the support of the local people, future governance will be more difficult.

Of course, there are some hidden dangers. In terms of time, we don’t know how long we can support it or how long we can persist.

Even if you trust your own civil and military colleagues, who can guarantee absoluteness on the battlefield?
If the pass is not opened by then, the food will be gone, and they will starve to death on the spot without anyone else doing anything.

Moreover, after doing this, apart from anything else, his personal reputation and reputation, as well as Liu Zhang's reputation and reputation, would all be ruined.

Personal reputation means nothing to Zhang Ren, and it doesn’t matter even if it is really lost.

But if these things from Liu Zhang were gone, Zhang Ren would totally not be able to accept it.

So not long after this idea came out, it was killed by Zhang Ren himself.

The other two routes were also very simple. One was to retreat, taking the army and not passing through the pass of the western mountains, but instead going from the northeast, passing through the mountains and jungles, and retreating directly to the Yizhou area.

However, the consequences of doing so were also very outrageous. It was equivalent to voluntarily giving up the pass in the western mountains and handing this pass directly to the Kushans.

It is easy to retreat, but if you want to take it down again, it is not something that can be solved with just a few casualties.

If I had no soldiers or generals, it would be easy to deal with. But now I have soldiers and generals, and I am fighting a foreign war. If I give up my soldiers, I know I can't do it.

Moreover, Zhang Ren himself had no idea whether he could succeed by taking the untested road from the northeast.

After all, the first person who was able to walk that path was called Zixu, a guy who was completely unaffected by not eating or drinking.

So apart from these paths, there is only one path left for Zhang Ren.

"Kill the enemy in front and snatch their food to use as military rations. Only in this way can we end safely!!" Zhang Ren thought of the last way, looked at the sword at his waist, and his heavy face became incomparably firm.

Burn your boats and fight to the death! (End of this chapter)
