God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

And apart from the things in the port, Qiu Lique looked back at the city wall behind him, and he felt a lot more at ease.

The Brahmins at that time built a city in this place for temporary enjoyment and to build their own dignity.

I used to dislike it very much, but now it seems that it is not a bad thing. At least with such a city wall as a place to lean on, I can resist the enemy's attack, which increases the possibility.

"Order Cheng Pu, Dong Cheng, Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai..." Paying attention to the changes on the battlefield, understanding the situation of the war, confirming the situation on the battlefield, and developing towards the goal in his heart, Zhou Yu did not delay any longer and directly sent out his reserve forces to reap the fruits of victory.

Wu Jing, who was watching on the other side, saw everyone moving forward in unison, starting the landing operation and moving towards the depths of the land, then turned to look at the sea of ​​fire at the port.

After hesitating for a while, Wu Jing slowly said, "Gongjin, according to this plan, the enemy's ships basically cannot leave the Strait of Malacca, and naturally it is difficult for them to escape westward by ship. In this case, would it be a bit bad to let some of the main battleships of the Northern Navy take a detour to the west..."

When Zhou Yu heard this, he immediately understood Wu Jing's thoughts.

Whether it is the large wooden battleship or the steel battleship in the North, they can be called the main force in the current war, especially the North, which, to a certain extent, has the power to make the final decision.

Having such warships deployed in the front can play a very strong role whether in attack or in covering a raid.

It seems a good idea to take a long detour to the west to intercept the enemy's stragglers who may escape, but in terms of actual effect, ordinary warships can achieve this goal. In fact, in terms of concealment, ordinary warships have a higher concealment coefficient.

After all, there is never a shortage of pirate ships on this ocean, especially pirates who own ordinary ships, who are countless.

"So what is your uncle's opinion?" Even though he understood it all, Zhou Yu still asked.

"If they were there, our attack power would be much stronger and the casualties would be much smaller. After all, they are all our direct troops. It would be better if the losses were less. Under the current circumstances, the losses are a bit heavy..." Wu Jing, who had watched the battlefield for a while, said with a hint of hesitation.

Even if you have the advantage of the first move, you may even cause chaos to the enemy, leaving the enemy in a state where the general does not know the soldiers, and the soldiers do not know the general.

But this cannot change some real foundations, especially the effects shown after the landing operation.

Even if the small boat commando team led by Huang Gai completed the mission, the casualty rate would not be less than 50%. It can be said that they completed the mission completely at the risk of their lives.

As for Sun Ce and Taishi Ci who advanced later, they relied on their strong combat power to complete the subsequent interception and breakthrough.

But after completing these tasks, Zhou Yu ordered Taishi Ci to retreat and further surround the people behind.

And those who launched further attacks were all from Jiangdong, all direct descendants of their Southern Navy.

These excellent naval soldiers participated in the land battle, and the combat effectiveness they showed was really no stronger than that of ordinary land soldiers. So even if the soldiers of the Guishuang Empire entered a state of chaos, relying on the same belief in the gods and Buddhas, the organization and combat effectiveness of small groups in a small area were far higher than those of the Jiangdong soldiers.

Under such circumstances, the casualty rate of Jiangdong soldiers naturally rose rapidly, to a level that made Wu Jing feel heartbroken.

Although in terms of the overall proportion, it is indeed not a large number, but these people are all direct descendants of the Southern Navy. How can one not feel heartbroken?
What's more, in terms of land warfare, the North's advantage is obviously stronger than the South. Making more use of the Northern Army will make it easier to create advantages and reduce more casualties.

This obvious reality made Wu Jing somewhat confused about Zhou Yu's operation.

There are obviously various ways to reduce your own casualties, why not use them?

Is it because of those military achievements?
Wu Jing thought about it and it seemed that this was the only possibility. However, after thinking about it carefully, he gave up the idea.

Because in Wu Jing's impression, Zhou Yu is not such a person. He will not put his soldiers in danger for the sake of temporary merit and suffer casualties that should not occur under normal circumstances!
"I know, I also know that doing this will result in much greater casualties, but it must be accepted and endured. This is already part of the plan, and it's a very small price to pay..." Zhou Yu said this with a very calm expression.

Wu Jing, who was familiar with Zhou Yu, could naturally hear the decision in these words, but he didn't understand what the reason was that made Zhou Yu make such a choice.

At this time, after Zhou Yu simply said this, he felt calmer and his orders became quicker and more decisive.

Commanding his own army, he began to carry out large-scale cutting and encirclement. Even though the losses would be greater, Zhou Yu issued corresponding orders after making an estimate.

The development of things was pretty much as Zhou Yu had imagined, especially under Zhou Yu's strict orders, combined with the morale advantage brought by fighting with the wind, the orders were decisively executed.

As for the costs and casualties incurred during this smooth process, they were directly suppressed by the high morale.

The vast majority of soldiers were unaware of or did not see these things, and they maintained an excited attitude and fought hard.

"What kind of reason is it that makes you do this? It even makes people feel a little strange..." Wu Jing, who couldn't figure it out, moved away from Zhou Yu, then looked at Zhou Yu and said with emotion.

Zhou Yu no longer listened to Wu Jing's sighs and inquiries, and focused all his attention on the battlefield. He tried his best to predict and command, so as to achieve excellent results while reducing the casualties of Party B.

At this time, Qiulique was constantly gathering the defeated soldiers, taking them into the city, regrouping and reorganizing them, and also retaining some elite backbone soldiers.

It also sent some seeds of hope on the road to retreat ahead of time.

Under normal circumstances, if this were done, morale would only rise faster, but Qi Li stayed behind, providing a basic guarantee for the morale of the Kushan Empire's soldiers.

After all, in a sense, the Qili were indeed one of the royal families of the Kushan Empire, holding a high position and great power. (End of this chapter)
