After Banat left, Brahe looked at Helilach, "How far is it left to merge the Glory of the World with the war and thunder side of the Emperor of Heaven, and then transform it into a talent?"
As one of the first Kushan generals to fight against the Han Dynasty, how could Brahe not realize that the Han Dynasty's greatest advantage at present was that compared to the elites under Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and others, in Brahe's eyes the most Also difficult to deal with are the shield guards.
Every empire has top elites. Even if there is a slight gap between these legions, the ceiling of the top legions limits the upper limit of combat effectiveness. It is destined that even if the strongest legions are strong, they cannot crush the same level.
Coupled with the certain restraint relationship between them, it is easy for the top elites of the major empires to fend off opponents of the same level during large-scale melees.
As for the Miracle Legion, which has broken the ceiling and entered a new realm, the upper limit of the stamina gauge restricts the time limit for the outbreak of miracles, and the replenishment difficulty restricts the size of the Miracle Legion. These problems have caused almost all the top legions to fall into the same level of blockade.
Although the Han Dynasty was strong, it could not completely crush Kushan in this highest level of battle.
Not to mention the command level, what really makes Kushan uncomfortable is the power at the backbone level of the empire.
In the past, Kushan relied on universal internal energy condensation and large-scale Qi training to become a gang. Even if there were certain problems with its own organizational strength, it would be defeated even if it faced the large-scale regular armies of other empires that mainly relied on single talents. If you go downwind, you won't be blasted.
But since the Han Dynasty gradually upgraded and iterated the universal one-talented regular army into standard shield guards, the level of the Kushan regular army gradually fell from a slight disadvantage to a regular army that could only rely on numbers to stop the Han army. The difficulty of winning became infinite. rise.
Although Chen Xi took the standard answers issued by Huangfu Song and others, the idea of using the so-called shield guard to force the Kushan Army to change their talents to an all-attack route was considered a failure.
But for General Guishang, Chen Xi's so-called failure is still an iron wall that can be called despair for people like them.
It is also based on this situation that there are two widely circulated sayings on the Kushan territory - there are two defensive arms, one is called shield guards, and the other is called others, and there are two kinds of cavalry, and one is called white horse. A kind of other.
As an empire, it is impossible to turn a blind eye to its own shortcomings. As for the White Horse, although Kushan has not found a way to curb the speed of the White Horse, with some secret techniques and defenses, it at least has the means to prevent the White Horse from wreaking havoc in the local elite area. ability.
But after solving the problem of Baima Yicong, the problem of large-scale shield guards appeared on the frontal battlefield. Not to mention 180 shield guards, even the previous 160 shield guards were enough to be called dimensionality reduction for the ordinary regular army of Guishang. level of blow.
This was already miserable enough, but after the sudden change, a large number of Kuishang's dual talents dropped, and the Han army upgraded its 180 shield guards on a large scale, further widening the gap between the two sides at the regular army level - they could barely fight at first, at most He is an unbeatable opponent, and he is completely unbeatable now.
In this case, there is no need to mention the will to fight. In all conscience, any Kushan Army commander with a normal mind will understand that the ordinary Kushan regular army will definitely not be able to break through the defense of the 180-shield guard, no matter what type of talent it is. At the first talent stage, the results of facing a shield guard are the same.
Therefore, how to face the shield guards has become a top priority for the commander of the Kushan Army.
It is also based on this that there are various special secret techniques developed by the secret arts room of the Kushan Empire to target shield guards. Although it can be seen from Jia Xu's analysis that those special secret techniques are used to defeat shield guards. The value is not as good as using it to fight other non-shield guard legions.
No matter what you say, Guishang is indeed actively solving the shield guard problem.
Oswin's side proposed the secret technique of blood sacrifice revenge, and Khusroi's side developed the Dawn Will Integration. These are the inevitable results of poverty and change.
Just like the Han Dynasty's Tunqi, they were forced to change for so many generations, which shows how talented human beings are in thinking about changes when they are poor. The same is true for the Kushan generals.
As one of the first generals to fight against the Han Dynasty, Brahe is naturally unable to be the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty. Brahe noticed the shield guards as early as when the 160 shield guards went to the battlefield for the first time. Waiting for the number of shield guards When the number began to increase, Brahe became defensive and entrusted Helilahe to develop the secret technique of transforming the Heavenly Emperor early on.
That's right, it's not the secret technique of the arrival of the Nengtian Emperor, or Indra or something like that, but a more practical use of the Nengtian Emperor's power to transform talents into war and thunder attributes.
Judging from the current situation, Brahe feels that Kushan will never be able to defeat the shield guards by relying on normal methods.
After all, if you want to use a general regular army to parry the shield guards, considering the reality, the only way to do it is to become a shield guard. All other options are useless. No matter what restraint, at the level of single talent, facing 180 shield guards, you will die. The only difference is how ugly the death is.
The two major supports that make up the shield guard, whether it is adaptive talent or plate armor, are quite terrible. We don’t even talk about the issue of adaptive talent. We only talk about plate armor. If you take out the entire Kushan, you won’t be able to get it. This is the Achilles heel.
Therefore, if you want to fight against the shield guard, you can only find another way. Brahe carefully studied the shield guard armor and his own leather armor, and finally found that he could only find a way to penetrate the armor, and the armor-piercing ability of the talent type is counted one by one. It's hard to work.
As a result, Brahe could only focus on related secret arts. After a lot of screening, Brahe found a special god and Buddha, which is the above-mentioned Emperor Nengtian.
The God of Thunder and War, among which the war effect is not very important in Brahe's opinion. What is important is the thunder and lightning effect, because after a large number of tests, Brahe found that only thunder and lightning can penetrate the armor of shield guards very well. Strong, but the heirloom ability of the leather armor commonly used by the Kushan regular army is very average.
Then Brahe proposed the idea of the ability to transform thunder and lightning, and Emperor Nengtian was responsible for war and thunder, which fully met Brahe's requirements, so Brahe proposed how to analyze this aspect of Emperor Nengtian into a secret technique, and soldiers. The talent is transformed into thunder and lightning effects through this secret technique.
After all, most standard shield guards only have one talent, only talent strength, and they will not have any absolute advantage over the regular Kushan army.
Therefore, when there is an advantage in numbers, even if there is a certain amount of talent conversion loss, as long as the thunder and lightning can be successfully controlled, the shield guard will no longer be an insurmountable iron wall for Kushan.
Brahe has been advancing this matter in private for a long time. This time, a wire report was received that the Marquis of Jin and Chen from the Han Dynasty had arrived at the front line. Brahe was under great pressure and had to inquire about Helilahe's progress in advance in order to Be mentally prepared to deal with the top bosses of the Han Dynasty.
"It is being verified. The loss of transformation is very large." Faced with Brahe's inquiry, Helilach said with concern, "I have tried to pull down the silhouette of Emperor Nengtian, and the analysis is considered successful, but the secret Technology development will take time.”
"If it works, take it out and try it. Let the Han Dynasty know that we have a method, and the shield guards will not be so arrogant. What is the conversion rate?" Brahe said with excitement.
For Brahe, even if the conversion rate is lower and the loss is higher, as long as it can penetrate the armor of the shield guards, it is acceptable, because it means that their Kushans have the ability to suppress the shield guard front. But a huge improvement.
"Well, the conversion rate is only about one seventeenth." Helilach said with some embarrassment after hearing Brahe's inquiry.
Brahe was stunned when he heard this, and the excitement on his face stopped, "It has been more than two years, I have invested a lot of materials, how can I achieve this level?"
"What don't you think you are going to deal with?" Helilach sighed and said, "Converting the talents of soldiers into another thing sounds very simple, but in fact this is really unprecedented. There is no one like this. When I took it over, I thought there was a reference, but when I really started researching it, I found that there was no reference at all.”
"Isn't this just a normal secret technique? Our Kushans are definitely the most experienced in secret technique development, aside from other aspects." Brahe frowned and looked at Helilach and said, not understanding why Helilach at all. I would say this without any reference.
"Because in the past, the essence of heaven and earth was transformed into secret arts, but this time, talent was transformed into secret arts. The gap between the two is like cloud and mud. Talent is the collective will of the legion that interferes with reality and is displayed in the essence of heaven and earth. Helilach looked at Brahe and explained helplessly.
"Being able to transform talent into other things means that talent can be transformed into other talents, at least in theory." Helilach ignored Brahe's expression and challenged the essence of the matter. Wear, "You know what this means?"
Brahe's expression became much more solemn, and he looked at Helilahe in disbelief.
"It's not a joke, it's the fact." Helilach replied with emotion, "Talent can be transformed into the thunder and lightning of the Emperor of Heaven, so is this lightning a talent or a secret technique?"
Before Brach could think clearly about the difference, Helilach slowly said, "There is no doubt that it is talent, because this transformation is that even the interference of the collective will is shaped into a new form. Template, displayed in reality.”
Brahe's face became more and more solemn. He never thought that he would find the route of talent transformation by accident. What's even more frightening is that Helilach actually opened the bridge between talent and talent. Not to mention the amount of consumption, the idea inside is terrifying.
"It is difficult for our Kushan Empire to give birth to a Glory that is equivalent to spiritual talent, but every Glory represents a manifestation of knowledge and thinking." Brahe said with some emotion, "Apparently Compared with spiritual talent, the brilliance of coming to this world may be closer to reality."
"Yes." Helilach nodded, "It was only when I was studying the secret technique of Neng Tiandi's transformation that I realized that in essence, the glory of my birth was not that of Brahma, but a more realistic consistency. The performance, from a thinking point of view, is to synthesize the commonality of all events.”
Compared with spiritual talent, both the Glory of the World and spiritual talent can be considered to be the sublimation of knowledge and thinking. As for the difference, the spiritual talent is self-sublimation without restraint, while the Glory of the World is entrusted to gods and Buddhas, imitating gods and Buddhas, focusing on A kind of sublimation to shape oneself.
In essence, there is no obvious difference between the two kinds of sublimation. The difficulty of Kushan's glory is to penetrate deeply into the gods and Buddhas and reshape oneself. After completion, I am still me, but with the characteristics of gods and Buddhas. There is one more process and one more feature, which also increases the difficulty.
This is also why there are only a few people in Guishan who have completed the Glory of the World.
"From the perspective of knowledge and thinking, the improvement in wisdom brought by the Glory of the World is actually no different from spiritual talent. The characteristic of strong knowledge is not of great significance to a wise person. ." Helilach said with a bit of a sigh, "Relatively speaking, spiritual talent is closer to the correct route. The Glory of the World is probably also a variant of spiritual talent, just because we were born in Brahmin."
Helilach is indeed a descendant of the Sogdian historian, but in the process of the Northern nobles infiltrating the Southern nobles, many Northern nobles stayed in the Southern nobles and became Kshatriyas. Some of these Kshatriyas adhered to the will of the Northern nobles. Some were corrupted by the Brahmin system and became outright Kshatriyas.
But no matter which one it is, it all requires the route of visualization. Therefore, as long as it is Nangui, no matter what type of wisdom sublimation it is, it is essentially the same, and it will involve going deep into the gods and Buddhas.
"The Brahmin system is poisonous," Helilach said concisely.
"Needless to say, everyone knows that Brahmins are poisonous." Brahe has adjusted his mentality at this time, "I don't care about the research on the commonality of talents. The top priority now is to solve the secret technique of transforming talents into thunder and lightning as soon as possible. , a conversion rate of one-seventeenth is really too low, I need at least a conversion rate of one-fifth.”
Because it was a local battle, the size of Kushan's troops had never been a problem, and there had never been any problems with logistics and food supplies. Therefore, even if the conversion rate was lower, they could still withstand it with their numbers.
In fact, according to Brahe's estimate, if the conversion rate can reach one-third, that is, if three ordinary soldiers can defeat the shield guards with the help of thunder and lightning secret techniques, then the Kushans will have an advantage. , after all, there are only less than 100,000 shield guards. They fight in Guishuang, and they can have 100,000 soldiers and horses along the way, and they can drag the shield guards to death.
It's a pity that Helilach came to 1/17. What can I say about such a low conversion rate? It's better to have 17 soldiers with defensive talents to fight against a shield guard. If they can't be killed, they can be divided into three groups. Under the command of the two leaders, the shield guard was easily held back, but there was no problem with the research direction.
