Sweep the World

After the Han army rescuing Peshawar approached within ten miles, Dospals Canaandina was unwilling to gather the army attacking Peshawar.

It only took less than two days to reach the city of Peshawar. Dospars Canaandina’s emergency location calculated the number of troops. The original effort of more than 70,000 people in less than two days turned out to be nearly 20,000.

The attack on Peshawar looked very tragic, and Sassan’s loss was only four to five thousand people. The key was that Dospals Canaandina sent out to block the Han army’s chariot and cavalry units.

Within ten miles, it can be roughly identified with the naked eye. The number of teams chased and fleeing on that side will not exceed five thousand people. That is to say, even the chariots and cavalry are only a short time. More than 13,000 people!

When the cavalry fights, one side really does not want to fight, then the progress of the battle will appear to be very slow.

but! If the cavalry units on both sides of the war want to fight, the process of fighting will appear extremely short, and the results will appear much faster than the fighting of infantry.

After all, the speed of the cavalry is there, and it is not thought that the infantry needs the front team to be killed or disintegrated before the people behind can engage the enemy.

The cavalry's style of play is staggered and opposed, and almost everyone will have at least one chance to fight the enemy before long. If the number of fights increased, casualties would be unavoidable, and then the rate of attrition would be extremely rapid.

"Don't worry about Peshawar!" Dospars Canaandina turned his head and glanced at Peshawar, which was trapped in a cloud of smoke, and then looked to the north again: "We use the city wall as a backing and focus on the defense of the north. relax!"

Dospals Canaandina has always been extremely wary of the emergence of the Han army, but he really didn't expect the Han army to come so quickly.

This Sassanid army did not spend much time setting up the camp. It can even be said that it didn't spend much time on the camp at the beginning. It was to step up time to build siege equipment, thinking about attacking Peshawar before the Han army arrived.

They really started to go crazy to consolidate the camp today, or when they faced the Peshawar assault, they mobilized manpower to construct fortifications and arrange obstacles.

The camp is not that easy to consolidate, especially for the various obstacles to the cavalry.

The Sassanian army is stepping up to produce refusal. As for the time for digging trenches and other things, there is no time. It can even be said that the number of refusals is seriously insufficient.

"Don't be afraid, we are waiting for the Han army!" Dospars Canaandina looked confident and smiled as the Han army had already planned: "This time it is to attract a Han army. Come and destroy them here! We have reinforcements. As long as everyone can hold on for five days, the Han army will definitely be destroyed here!"

It was not only Dospars Canaandina who was shouting, but he actually sent a lot of people to announce such a message in the camp.

The Sassanid soldiers who knew that the Han army had arrived, they were because Peshawar did not conquer in the end, but they ushered in a Han army and panicked with self-doubt.

When they heard that they had attacked Peshawar to attract the Han army to come and rescue them, they had set a trap to eat the Han army who came to rescue Peshawar, and they were calm down regardless of whether they believed it or not.

"General..." Neilbu Dogaro lowered his voice: "There is such a plan, but reinforcements will take seven days at the earliest. If the swift Han army sends troops to intercept..."

"Shut up!" Dospars Canaandina said too many things were wrong, and he knew very well that even one mistake in commanding a war would be fatal, not to mention making so many mistakes, he said with some irritation: " If you shake the military's mind again, this general will kill you!"

Nelb Dogaro blinked and chose to shut up.

They didn't know about the Habayashi army's attack, and if they knew, they wouldn't expect any more reinforcements.

The current situation is that we must believe that reinforcements will come. Not only the small soldiers, but also the generals and officers including Dospals Canaandina must believe in this, otherwise this battle will not be necessary at all. beated.

The morale of the Sassanian army, with a slightly boosted morale, is preparing to deal with the upcoming Han army at a faster speed. Not only has it hurriedly rejected obstacles such as horses, but also has made some long-range attack equipment that was originally designed to deal with Peshawar. Turn around.

How long does Shili take for the cavalry? Hurry up and hurry up for about an hour?

The sun in the sky has reached the right Zhōng Yāng, and the sun shines on the earth to provide light and heat for the creatures, but part of the sun cannot penetrate the dense smoke to continue to shine.

Black oil is unrefined oil. Once it burns and spreads to other combustibles, it is not so easy to destroy it.

Before the Peshawar garrison used water to put out the fire? This kind of behavior is actually a bit silly. It doesn't mean that oil will burn more intensely when it encounters a fire, but unless there is the water impulse of a modern fire engine, it is not easy to kill it.

It is not modern at present, and there are no modern fire trucks. Military and civilian fire fighting in Peshawar only relies on buckets or smaller objects to hold water. A bucket of water does not seem to have much effect at all, even if the fire in that place is slightly reduced. A little bit, but soon it was no different from other burning areas.

If you want to extinguish the black oil fire under the current conditions, in fact, using sand to cover it is the best way.

There are not many wars between Jidoruo and Sassan. It is impossible that Sassan has never used black oil against Jidoruo. Many of the soldiers and civilians in Peshawar have relevant experience, but they are very mixed. It is difficult to convey the correct way of extinguishing fire.

From the outside, Peshawar is now like a city where the whole city is burning with raging fire, and it is filled with smoke.

However, from the internal point of view, it is only the outer residential areas that are burning the fire. In some places, the fire has not reached the inner city even though the fire has spread.

However, there are still some urban areas catching fire. It is not that the fire followed the burning state, but some burning sparks were blown up by the wind and floated on top of combustibles. More time to pay attention to other places, the result turned the small fire into a big fire, and the fire spread again.

Fortunately, although many people died in Peshawar, the population base in the city is still there.

Furthermore, in the case of non-black oil for combustion, the use of water to extinguish the fire has a great effect. Whenever a fire occurs, a group of people rush in. In order to survive, no one is afraid of hardship and tiredness to get water, and more people are constantly moving towards The big fire digs the ground and scatters the soil, which is slower and eventually extinguishes the fire.

The side of the palace fortress, looking out, has become a foggy area, and the line of sight has been shortened to less than fifty meters. Even if it can be seen farther, it is the scene of the yellow fire.

"The Persians have retreated!" Luhmaru Jieduo felt weak after completely relaxing, forced to cheer up and find Ma Bin, and said gratefully: "It must be the heavenly soldiers of the big man."

"Willing to follow the big man, the big man will never stand by when the country is in trouble." Ma Bin didn't lie either. That is the credibility that the first Han has maintained for hundreds of years. The premise is that the country is really obedient: "The country owner should step up to put out the fire. Make preparations to dispatch troops to eliminate enemy forces outside the city in one fell swoop."

"Naturally! Naturally! Xiao Wang has urged many times." Luhmaru Jiduo's attitude towards Ma Bin has changed again and again. From the initial restraint to the now undisguised kneeling and licking, he promised: "Definitely. Hurry up and put out the fire, and go out of the city to watch the majestic appearance of the great Han Heavenly Soldier.

The translation is that kind of saying, and I didn't even mention being a friendly army. Obviously, I didn't dare to put the two sides on an equal footing, and I didn't really want to watch.

The armistice on Peshawar’s side, the sound of the horns of the desperate voice outside the city was repeatedly blown, but the crisp drums ceased; but there was still noise in the city, shouting for help in fighting the fire, saving people, etc., Sassan The army no longer attacked the cry of mourning the death of loved ones.

One and a half days plus one night, Peshawar did show extraordinary courage and determination in order to resist the Sassanid army's siege, but the casualties were really heavy.

As a regular Peshawar garrison, 10,000 people stopped the offensive at the Sassanids and only about 6,000 were left with effective fighting capacity. The number of people killed was about 3,000, and the injuries were so serious that nearly 1,000 people lost their fighting capacity.

The citizens of Peshawar, who were called to resist the invaders, joined the war in large numbers after the war in the city began. When they took the initiative to launch a counterattack, they killed nearly 10,000 people, and the number of sacrifices accounted for six to seven thousand. hurt.

Those above are the casualties data of Peshawar in the state of war.

Later, the Sassanian army began to set fire. Many of the Peshawar soldiers and civilians gathered in the outer city were swallowed by the fire before they reacted. About six to seven thousand people did not play their role. Burned into coke.

In some local street battles between the enemy and us, the Sassanid troops that invaded were basically no one ran back. They killed more than 4,000 Peshawar soldiers and civilians at the cost of about 1,000 people. The number of women is the largest.

Ma Bin and Zhou Bian, who had been staying on the heights of the palace to watch the battle with a telescope, gathered their respective information and made a rough judgment. There were no more than 18,000 people in Peshawar for two days and one night. They did not ridicule, but gave birth. I have a great admiration mentality.

How many people are there in Peshawar? Including the defenders and civilians, there will definitely not be more than 60,000, but with a base of 60,000, the number of deaths and injuries in the fierce defensive battle is 20,000 and 30,000, which is more than 10,000.

That's one-third of the death and injury data! What a tough nation to survive. Ma Bin also heard that Peshawar has encountered such a tragedy for the first time. When it was even worse, more than one-half of the people in the city were killed and injured, but he still persevered. .

Zhou Bian cited a few examples. Zhu Xia had examples of resisting invaders in the whole city, but only a few times over thousands of years.

How long the Xiaoyue people have come to this land, and how many non-national populations have been integrated, and in such a state, they can have that kind of centripetal force and unity, which is truly amazing.

Ma Bin is already conceiving how to report to Xie An about Ji Duo Luo's article. His core opinion is only one. If Ji Duo Luo does not really surrender to the big man, this country is still the best choice.

Ma Bin was even willing to add a paragraph, even if Ji Duoruo showed great surrender to the big man, the big man should also softly suppress him, and should not allow him any chance to sit on the big side.

There is nothing for a nation that can conquer and fight well, unless it is always able to fight, otherwise its rise is fast and its decline is also fast.

What really deserves attention is a nation that is united and has a tenacious will. Even if such a nation is weak for a while, it will gradually become stronger over the course of a long time, and then become the overlord of one party.

Ma Bin’s evaluation is still quite correct, and the Persians have the same view. If history has not changed, the Persians took a long time to specifically target Gidoro. Under the dual suppression of military and diplomacy, Gidoro It has not been able to develop, and the Persians later combined with a northern nomadic tribe to destroy Gidoruo.

The soldiers and civilians in Peshawar are of course eager to put out the fire, but no matter how hard they work, the fire will not be completely extinguished in a short while.

Li Tan led his army to within seven miles of Peshawar, and he was able to see the densely smoked Peshawar very clearly, wondering if Peshawar was finished.

The Han army did not give up after pursuing the remnants of the Sassanid cavalry force until about seven miles away. At this distance, the leading cavalry of the Han army began to change horses.

The cavalry of the Han army, who completed the horse-changing move, changed the direction of advancement amid the sound of the strong horns, winding from the northeast to the west.

The Han army approaching behind was also changing horses. About five thousand cavalrymen of the Han army kept advancing at a speed of about 30 miles.

The arrival of the Han army has allowed the Persians to observe relatively clearly with the naked eye.

When the Sassanid army found that the number of the Han army exceeded 40,000~www.wuxiamtl.com~, the confidence raised before was hit again, and the expression on his face was changed to a panic.

That was the 40,000 Han army, and they all looked like cavalry.

The Sassanian army was not able to conquer Peshawar, and the layout of the camp was rushed. There was not much confidence to block the impact of the Han cavalry with the hurried line of defense.

Countless Persians were praying that the Han army would not launch an offensive as soon as they came, so that they would have more time to arrange their camps, and at the same time, more time for reinforcements on their way.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"

The Han army blew the sound of a strong horn.

In an instant, a battle cry of "Han Army Mighty" sounded over the wilderness.

The battle cry of the Han army was heard not only by the Sassanid army, but also by the soldiers and civilians in Peshawar.

They showed two completely different appearances. The Persian's heart shrank suddenly because of the battle horn, but the soldiers and civilians of Peshawar burst into enthusiastic cheers.
