svetikya Chapter 224
Chapter 224
"This Peacock King is too ruthless, isn't it?"
"With this kind of poisonous plan that even burns his own people, isn't he afraid that his army will mutini when he finds out?"
Xiahou Ying looked at the battle report in his eyes in disbelief.
Although the fire in the vanguard camp of the Mauryan Dynasty army burned more than 3,000 Donghu cavalry, and even Tuoba Su was seriously injured, the Peacock Dynasty's own people who were burned to death were at least ten times that of the Donghu cavalry!
If this is placed in Great Qin, which general dares to do this, he definitely doesn't know how he died.
The Great Qin Military Law clearly stipulates that if you encounter a comrade-in-arms in danger on the battlefield, you will be severely punished!
The casualty rate is also one of the key points of the assessment of the military merit title system.
Even if the battle is won, if the casualties under his command are too high, the leader will not only not be promoted to the title, but will be punished.
It fully reflects the rarity of Daqin's soldiers' lives.
Of course, these regulations only apply to the soldiers of the Great Qin, and the armies of the subject states such as Donghu are not protected by this regulation.
"Teng Gong doesn't know, this Peacock Dynasty is different from my Great Qin, they have a very strict class system called caste. "
"Every Mauryan was born into a class, and the lower castes had to obey the teachings of the higher castes. "
"The same is true in the Mauryan army, the high caste is an officer or even a general as soon as they enter, and the low caste, even if they are brave in battle, are at most a captain or even a captain, and they can't even be mixed with a captain. "
"And the lives of these low-caste officers have never been taken seriously by high-caste officers, and the so-called casualties are just a number. "
Cao Shen put down the book in his hand and said.
Since being taught by Han Xin last time, Cao Shen began to study these translated Mauryan Dynasty books, and had a further understanding of the situation of the Mauryan Dynasty.
"This ......"
"The bottom of the Mauryan Dynasty is all soft eggs, don't you know how to resist?"
Xiahou Ying was dumbfounded.
"They have been brainwashed by religious sticks since they were children, saying that the more they suffer in this life, the more happiness they will enjoy after reincarnation in the next life, and all resources are monopolized by the aristocratic high caste, so they can only endure it. "
Cao Shen sighed and said: "After seeing the tragic experience of the common people of the Peacock Dynasty, I understand more that the people of Great Qin, especially the people protected by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, are so happy. "
Xiahou Ying was stunned for a long time before nodding thoughtfully.
Since the promotion of various decrees in Fusu, the continuous improvement of the living standards of the people of Pei County has been seen in their eyes.
After coming to Xianyang City, I have seen the rapid progress of the people of Xianyang City, especially the emergence of Xianyang New City, which has allowed the people to live a life that they had never dared to imagine before.
And these changes, as Daqin continues to develop, will inevitably gradually appear in Pei County, and appear in all counties of Daqin.
Being born as a Great Qin person at this time is indeed the greatest happiness.
When the people of the Peacock Dynasty were still struggling at the bottom, the common people of Daqin had already solved the problem of food and clothing, and the students of the poor family were studying the content of the examinations of various departments of the court.
The gap between the two is already indescribable.
"Don't think about it so much, studying how to take down the main force of the Peacock Dynasty is the best way to repay the kindness of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. "
Han Xin said with a smile: "Although what Cao Shen said is the truth of the Peacock Dynasty, but this time, the relics have gone too far, and the monarchs of various small countries who were not convinced by him must be angry. "
"As long as we can defeat the last reliance on the battlefield of the Sari, the War Elephant Legion, we can completely disintegrate the Mauryan Empire, and then we can eat away step by step. "
"What the general said is very true!"
Cao Shen and Xiahou Ying nodded together.
......
On the side of the Mauryan Empire.
After two days and two nights of hard work, and after losing thousands of men again, the Mauryan army finally repaired the collapsed wooden bridge and erected several more pontoon bridges using the ships they had collected from all over the world.
The main force of the Chinese army of the Peacock Empire, which had been waiting for a long time, also crossed the Peacock River one after another, and was ready for a decisive battle with the Great Qin army.
"King, something is wrong!"
"According to the unexpected situation, these cavalry of the Great Qin people will definitely take advantage of the chaos to attack when our army builds bridges or crosses rivers, but this time, they don't do anything, it's not logical!"
Military Minister Siddharna said with a frown.
"What's so strange about this, the last time the Great Qin cavalry tried to continue to raid our vanguard camp, they were burned by this king, and tens of thousands of horsemen were burned, and the losses were extremely heavy. "
"It is said that the Khan of Tuoba Su was almost burned to death, and now he still has the courage to fight my great army of war elephants. "
The king of the Mauryan Dynasty, Sheli Yijia, waved his hand indifferently and said with an arrogant expression.
Siddhartha's face flashed with a hint of discoloration, and after hesitating for a long time, he still did not speak.
In the past few days, there have been several unlucky people who have been beheaded by the relics and sacrificed, and he doesn't want to go to the next one.
And in his opinion, no matter what kind of tactics the Great Qin people used, they would not be able to resist the charge of the most elite war elephant army of the Mauryan Dynasty.
As the commander of the War Elephant Legion, Siddhartha has absolute confidence in his subordinates.
As for the thoughts of the monarchs of small countries in the Mauryan Empire, Siddharna didn't care.
Anyway, the Mauryan Dynasty has long been a non-existent entity, and it is already the norm for government decrees not to leave Fahrenheit City (the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty).
This time, it was just because the pressure from Daqin was too great that they reluctantly gathered together again.
As long as the Great Qin people are defeated and the foreign enemy is resolved, the division will still be divided.
It's best to be stunned and kill the relics directly.
When the time comes, Siddhartha, who has the War Elephant Legion, the strongest combat power of the Mauryan Empire, can establish himself as a king and become the ruler of a high country.
Is a fool willing to continue to follow a tyrant like Relic?
I don't know which day, like the vanguard army before it, did not die under the hooves of the enemy's horses, but under the knife stabbed in the back by the relics.
"Great King, report from the front, the Great Qin people have retreated for ninety miles, and they have all retreated into the city of Alagacia!"
Just when Sarija and Siddhartha were each pregnant with ghosts, the intelligence officer's report pulled them back.
"Haha, the Great Qin people were indeed as expected by this king, and they were intimidated by the heavenly might of my Great War Elephant Legion!"
"But they still think too simply!"
"A mere city of Arakosia, also trying to stop the charge of the War Elephant Legion?"
"Pass the order, the whole army is pressed, before sunset tomorrow, I want to see the head of the Great Qin general!"
The relics laughed wildly.
Siddhartha's face also flashed with joy.
The feats of annihilating the invading Great Qin army would definitely make him and the War Elephant Legion the most influential and worshipped heroes of the entire Mauryan Dynasty.
Siddharu was thinking about whether to create an accident at the military parade ceremony after the destruction of the Great Qin people, so that the war elephants could directly kill the relics and become kings.
