Of course, the main reason why sword fighting is used to determine the outcome is that the intelligence of both parties is too high. It is simply a joke to use strategy to determine the outcome. After all, taking advantage of the situation is also a part of intelligence. Chen Gong can use the reserved intelligence, and Cheng Yu can also It can bring people into the field, so when it comes time to compete with intelligence, it will take one to two years for the two sides to decide the winner. However, for Cheng Yu and Chen Gong who could no longer bear it, one to two years was too long, so they had no choice but to choose swordsmanship that they were not good at. There is no way, Chen Gong and other civil servants under Cao Cao can basically get along, but they have different views on Cheng Yu. In the early years when they were under Cao Cao, they tolerated each other, but now they are separated. Chen Gong and Cheng Yu Neither wants to tolerate each other. "Military advisor, do you really want to duel with Old Man Cheng?" Cao Xing squatted aside, his hands drooped and a little collapsed. Chen Gong actually wanted to duel with someone. No matter how you look at it, it is all their fault. "What, do you have anything to say?" Chen Gong no longer reserved his intelligence at this time. He calmly adjusted his state and prepared to deal with Cheng Yu's provocation. Cheng Yu¡¯s strength is very strong. If Chen Gong still had doubts in the past, then since Cheng Yu beat Xu Shu to the head, everyone knows that Cheng Yu and Zhou Yu should be the ceiling in the circle of civil servants. As for the other civil servants, excluding the funny Lu Bu and Zhao Yun who was simply brought in to make up the numbers, the remaining civil servants who can fight are Li You, Jia Xu, and Zhang Ji. , for example, the strongest Man Chong, but compared with these three Yongliang fierce men, most civil servants who have practiced martial arts are somewhat behind. There is no doubt that Chen Gong has indeed refined his energy to become a gang. His actual combat effectiveness may be worse than that of Xu Shu. It can be said that a one-on-one fight with Cheng Yu is basically a loss of life. "Military advisor, that's Cheng Zhongde. Even the rest of us are not sure of winning." Cao Xing looked at Chen Gong awkwardly and said, this is really not a boast. Don't look at Cheng Yu at sixty, but he is really very capable. Fight, at least Cao Xing doesn't see any hope in Chen Gong. "I know." Chen Gong glanced at Cao Xing and said casually, if he couldn't even know himself and his enemy, why should Chen Gong be a counselor? Just give him a sword and wipe his neck. "Then you still want to duel with him!" Cao Xing said with a huge head. "There are many loopholes in this duel." Chen Gong shook his head and said, "This is actually a time-limited competition of intelligence and force. He and I both understand that if there is a large-scale competition of intelligence, no one will be able to win. , so he took this as his goal. "On the other side, Cheng Yu was also looking for foreign aid. Cao Cao didn't know where he knew about this, so he quickly blocked Cheng Yu without saying anything and borrowed Dian Wei. To Cheng Yu. "Can you protect Zhongde from evil?" Cao Cao patted Dian Wei on the back. The nearly ton of armor was a bit irritating when touched with rivets, but Cao Cao still grinned happily. Even though I had ridiculed it many times before - those who build this kind of armor that weighs hundreds of kilograms are all fools. Who would wear this kind of thing? It is useless on the battlefield, but when Chen Xi allocates it to Dian Wei's Tiger Guard Camp Afterwards, Cao Cao immediately said that this thing was really good after being equipped with it. Even though it looked rough, it was full of the beauty of steel. In short, Cao Cao, who used to complain about the uselessness of this thing, now basically lets Dian Wei wear this full-body armor every day. For no other reason, this kind of pressure alone is enough for Cao Cao to feel happy, rain of arrows, and throwing. Spears, crossbows, come on, let you feel what a homogeneous steel plate shield made of pure steel is! Even if the power of your heavy-duty bed crossbow explodes, your arrows will be broken when they hit this thing. There will be a difference in how well different materials are heated to the extreme. After all, the materials themselves also have ultimate properties. The upper limit, and Guishuang can't afford the fine iron crossbow arrows at all! "No problem!" Dian Wei said in a low voice. If there was no cloud, he might have to avoid Lu Bu when he met him, but when there was cloud, Dian Wei said that he was not timid at all. "Excuse me, my lord." Cheng Yu sighed and said, Cheng Yu would not hesitate to challenge Chen Gong in a duel, but Chen Gong would definitely use some extra moves, so Cheng Yu had to be on guard. "There's no need for that. I won't go and see you then. You should be careful." Cao Cao said with a smile. He knew very well what Cheng Yu's plan was. As the saying goes, a snake can't do without a head. Cheng Yu wanted to fight for Cao Cao. The position of the Lord of the Army. Although only Cao Cao is suitable for this position among this army, as for Lu Bu, come on, Lu Bu can't hold this position even with Chen Gong as his assistant. But even so, Cheng Yu still chose to fight. Chen Gong would not interfere with major matters, just like Cheng Yu would never hold back other forces in foreign wars. These are the consciousness of top wise men. It can be said that don't look at it now Negotiations are still going on, but if it really comes down to it, everyone willIt turns out that this road is dominated by Cao Cao. Others, such as Lu Bu, Sun Quan, and Hua Xiong, are just guest troops who follow Cao Cao's command and come to fight. After all, Bei Gui is different from Nan Gui. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and its own strength is particularly strong. There is simply no way to win without enough strength. Even if Xun Yu¡¯s strategic arrangement is very good, facing a tough opponent like Bei Gui will still require considerable combat power. In fact, compared to Nan Gui, Bei Gui is the real enemy. What's more, a very big problem in the Beigui battle is that no matter where you go, as long as you can't enter the three major plains, it is destined that hundreds of thousands of troops will not be able to get rid of it. It is even too much to say that the biggest advantage of large army battles is There is no way to show it directly, and it cannot be spread at all! The same problem exists in Guishan. Apart from walking through the desert to die in Beigui, the only real route is the Kabul Valley. Of course, Zhuge Liang suspects that the Fulward guy may have a route across the desert, but it is basically impossible to get such a thing, and not many people dare to fight across the desert. In this way, the war between the Han Dynasty and the Kushan Dynasty in the north was actually a locked-up battlefield, and they could only fight in a narrow place like the Kabul Valley. In fact, if we look at the official historical topography, there are three places in the Kabul Valley where large-scale settlements are possible. These three places are Herat, Kandahar, and Kabul. A place where soldiers and people were raised. Incidentally, Kabul was also the capital of Afghanistan in later generations. This place is one of the very few places in the Northern Guishan Mountains that can raise people and farm. However, Dayue clan itself is not good at farming. In this era, these three places have not been developed yet. However, these three special places belong to The very few open areas in the Kabul Valley are simply places where combat can be carried out. In fact, the last time Chen Gong and others encountered Beigui was in the Kabul area in later generations. If not, it would have been difficult for the Han army and Kushan to get rid of them. However, after the Han Dynasty withdrew, Seth Kapil quickly moved in and blocked the three places, preparing to completely block the Han Dynasty from outside. It can be said that it is basically impossible to break in as easily as the last time. . By the way, during the Alexander period hundreds of years ago, they first went to Herat, then to Kandahar, and then captured Kabul in one go. Then they divided their forces into two groups, broke through Khyber all the way, and stabbed in the back along the route of Zasali heading south. Bactra is now Fulward's home base. In this way, the element was sent to hell in one breath. The flexible operation can be called a teaching material. In short, the current situation on Cao Cao's side can only go this way, but the difference from Alexander's year is that India did not have much defense in these three places, and the blockade was not very rigorous, and the opponent was not considered Too strong. The current situation on Cao Cao's side is basically equivalent to hell difficulty, because Cesi Kapil was ordered to do so in danger, and Ceci Selian had the guarantee before going to sea. In addition, he was from the Kushan royal family. After encountering a sneak attack by the Han army in Beigui, , after secret talks between Vesutiva I and Sethi Kapil, he began to dispatch troops from the Northern Guishan Mountains to block the Kabul Valley. At present, the three war zones in the Kabul Valley have not yet completed the blockade, but more than 60,000 talented elites have been transferred to Herat at the front, and more than 120,000 troops will be gathered here one after another. As for the issue of grain and grass, the Kabul River is a very magical river. Although the location is very strange, boats can be sailed on this river. Although only small flat-bottomed boats can be used, there is still no big problem in transporting grain. Beigui has always relied on this river to transport grain. It's just that the Northern Gui didn't want to fall out with the Southern Gui and never exposed these details. Otherwise, the most correct way for the Northern Gui would be to build cities in Hetra, Kandahar, and Kabul. After all, Alexander has proven that these three places It is possible to build a city, but as a nomadic people, the Da Yueshi are not good at farming, so these three good residential areas were abandoned. But on the other hand, not establishing settlements in these three places really saved Kushan's life, because compared to being cautious when marching and fighting, it might not be possible to establish permanent settlements in these three places. Cao Cao could imitate Alexander and make a very fast advance, and take away the three settlements before Guishan could react. In short, if you really want to say it, there are indeed pros and cons. If the Da Yueshi had the ability of Han Dynasty to farm, they could have millions more people relying on those three areas. Unfortunately, the Da Yueshi are still killing, burning and looting in nature. Nomads are really bad at fighting and farming. Therefore, if Cao Cao wants to enter now, he must be prepared to fight three high-intensity imperial battles. Compared with??RIP that crispy guy, Kushan is a real empire.
