"We don't have any extra troops here." Zhang Ren replied on behalf of Guan Yu. "The current situation is not suitable for us to mobilize troops and horses to join together."
"That's true, but I hope there won't be any mistakes." Guan Yu nodded after hearing this. Zhang Ren's judgment was almost the same as his. Then thinking of the current situation, he couldn't help but sigh, "Wen Jia, I can't tell now. Already handed over."
"It shouldn't be that fast." Yu Jin thought for a while and said.
"Did Wen Ru come with only infantry?" Guan Yu suddenly asked.
"Well, we only brought archers and infantry formations, but they were all elites." Yu Jin nodded and said, "The Shesheng Battalion was transferred from the Qingzhou Strong Crossbow Soldiers, and I also pointed it out."
"Is the fight over?" Guan Yu said expressionlessly.
"Yes, I finally reached that level on the battlefield, and then I finished the fight." Yu Jin said with a gloomy look. He touched the dual talents and completed them, but they were all finished. Yu Jin was full of curse words.
"Find a way to send the few remaining cavalry to Wenru. We won't need cavalry much in the future." Guan Yu suddenly said. Although his relationship with Li You cannot be said to be very good, Guan Yu is doing something for him. Very reliable when fighting for the country.
"On the one hand, it's too late, and on the other hand, it's not cost-effective." Yu Jin said distressedly, "It's the same reason that it takes half a year to come over from Baima. While the logistical baggage slows down the speed, the roads also slow down the speed. It’s a little bush.”
"Forget it, send me another letter, saying that I will do my best to support you if you need anything." Guan Yu was silent for a while and said.
The cavalry is indeed a very convenient unit, especially in the grassland terrain of the northern frontier of the Central Plains. In that place, there is no need for roads, and the cavalry can run at maximum speed.
On the other hand, in the south, the speed of cavalry will be slower than that of infantry. The reason is very simple. In this era, the south is full of forests full of vines, and the cavalry itself has higher requirements for baggage. In this case, The drag is even greater.
Li Ru forced his army to march without any baggage, so it would take nearly two months for the infantry to reach Wenjia. If it were replaced by cavalry, with the baggage and no roads, it would take four or five months to reach Wenjia. It was not that slow before the Han Dynasty. Except for a cavalry regiment that Yu Jin sent here in advance, the only others sent here by the army were Guan Yu's five hundred swordsmen.
The terrain in the south greatly limits the speed of the cavalry. It is very difficult for the white horses to come over, or for Guan Yu and the few remaining cavalry under Yu Jin to go to Wenjia. The former is basically impossible before the road is really opened. It's impossible. As long as the land reclamation is completed, the cavalry will be able to gallop in this area.
The level of difficulty on both sides is completely different, but now they are limited by the actual situation and have not been able to complete the foundation for the cavalry to gallop.
"Well, I will add it when I send the letter again." Yu Jin nodded and said, and then reported a relatively good news, "Recently, we found that his mind telepathy is of great help in training the letter eagle. Greatly shortens the training cycle.”
The transmission of intelligence has always been a very troubling matter in the Central Plains. The speed of intelligence transmission largely determines the judgment of the Han Dynasty's rear on the general situation ahead.
Chen Xi once had the extravagant hope of using homing pigeons to deliver information, but then he tried it, but there was nothing more to say, so he just gave up. At this point in time at the end of the second century AD, the sky in the Central Plains was filled with birds of prey such as eagles, owls and falcons, and homing pigeons were basically at the bottom of the food chain. .
Chen Xi once managed to get a homing pigeon that was refined into a weapon. After cultivating it for a while, it finally returned to its nest. Then Chen Xi asked his nursing home to take it outside the city and let it fly. As a result, it was killed before it could fly back. A falcon took it away.
At that moment, Chen Xi was desperate. He gave Xu Chu some carrier pigeons and other items to make roasted squab. These days, wandering around without any fighting ability, whether in the sky or on the ground, would be life-threatening. Carrier pigeons and so on. Give up, give up.
After that, we can only rely on the Faith Eagle. The Faith Eagle is good. It is a top predator. It will basically not be attacked when flying in the sky. Even archers are basically no threat to the Faith Eagle. After all, the Eagle can fly up to ten thousand. Meters high, as long as you train well and don't seek death, you'll be fine.
Although the letter eagle can only deliver letters at a fixed location, once the location changes too much, the letter eagle cannot be found, and it is not smart enough, so it will fly around and get lost. However, it can deliver letters to fixed targets, so now the Han Dynasty Many secret messages that pursue speed are delivered by trust eagles.
However, eagles are unruly creatures and are extremely difficult to train. Even now, there are not many eagles in the Han Dynasty. Not long ago, Yu Jin discovered that his mind can be used to communicate with animals. Although he still can't understand it, he can at least understand it. Can convey some information.
"Intensify training efforts and gather all those who understand his mind." Guan Yu also knew the importance of this matter and immediately replied.
"Yuan Zhi has already done it, but Yuan Zhi is a little worried about certain things." Yu Jin frowned.
"A question about Brahmin?" Guan Yu asked with half-closed eyes. When he heard that his mind could be used to communicate with animals, Guan Yu had some guesses.
"Yuan Zhi said that his mind can essentially communicate with all things." Yu Jin said with a wry smile. Xu Shu had already told him part of his guess.
"Brahmins can't do it." Guan Yu looked at his Qinglong Yanyue Sword, and then said with great indifference.
"Yuan Zhi estimates that the Brahmins, or the top Brahmins, should have mastered part of this power. This can also explain the Peacock Legion's war elephant problem." Yu Jin looked at Guan Yu and said, while Guan Yu looked at My own Qinglong Yanyue Sword.
"To open a spirit, what opens is one's own will. A dead thing without a will cannot be communicated with." Guan Yu directly denied Xu Shu's other guess. If his mind could ask the answer from the weapon, he wouldn't even need to answer. , all it takes is a vague response, and the weapon will be channeled.
"That's good." Seeing Guan Yu's determination, Yu Jin felt a lot more at ease. If his mind could really reach that point, it would be very troublesome.
"Maybe some people can do it, but they are definitely not ordinary people." Guan Yu replied again, and Yu Jin nodded. He didn't care at all that one or two strong people could do it. What he was afraid of was that this ability would become a universal secret technique. If it was Anyone can use a magic weapon like the Qinglong Yanyue Sword, but that's probably the same as a shield guard.
"As for the other possibility, I won't talk about it. It's basically confirmed. What we need to pay attention to here is whether there are any other mounts in Kushan that are suitable as mounts and can be armed on a large scale." Zhang Ren also knew that the other guess was What, but he didn't feel anything special. He had already seen the Peacock, a type of force that defies the will of heaven, and there was nothing to be afraid of.
In Huashi City, Xu Shu, who came back early, has organized local people to start a military camp. After experiencing an imperial war, Xu Shu clearly noticed his shortcomings. Although he also has spiritual talents, he is not as good as Guo Jia and others now. There is still a very huge gap.
Just like Jia Xu, Fazheng and others joked, a truly wise person can still do the things he once did without using his spiritual talent, but Xu Shu cannot do it now. He is still far behind in this aspect. Going too fast means that this guy's foundation is a little weak.
"Zhongtai, how is the military camp organization going?" Xu Shu asked after Sun Guan returned.
"According to your request, some young people from each household have been allocated to start cultivating wasteland. The scale has expanded a lot, but the problem now is that many young people do not know how to farm." Sun Guan said helplessly said.
"This is nothing. If the caste system does not bring about other class issues, it is essentially division of labor. It is normal if you don't know how to farm. We will." Xu Shu said calmly. Recently, he made a lot of remarks about the Kushan system. , and once again entered the state of studying hard, Xu Shu thought that he was no less talented than anyone!
"But the level of these diners is too bad." Sun Guan said speechlessly, "Compared to the intensive farming in the Central Plains, this place is too rough."
"It's normal. They don't need an overly delicate farming system. The soil quality here is enough for them to scatter a handful of seeds and eat enough. However, even so, they still have famine." Xu Shu said helplessly, The conditions in the Ganges River Basin are indeed very good.
"Take them to farm, carry out large-scale reclamation, unify all the Brahmins under our rule, and declare to the outside world that the upper castes are born noble and should not be allowed to live too close to the lower castes. All the upper castes should not be allowed to live too close to each other. Castes gather together." Xu Shu said expressionlessly.
"This will take some time." Sun Guan had a slight headache. There were many Brahmins under their rule. "And direct forced relocation may cause some social unrest. I have heard that some Brahmins are working together in private."
"You have received the news." Xu Shu sighed and said, "So we built a city for the Brahmins so that these noble people can live together to show their nobility."
Sun Guan didn't think about it, and then Xu Shu glanced at Sun Guan and explained, "Brahmans still have considerable ruling ability in the country. Even if we have the name of God Jialan, the existence of the other party is still a hidden danger. Of course, there are some Brahmins brainwash themselves and become fools, but most Brahmins are actually our hidden danger.”
Sun Guan nodded. This is a fact. Although the Brahmins in the area currently controlled by the Han army did not cause trouble, it does not mean that this group of people did not have this idea. On the contrary, even Sun Guan heard some rumors.
