Chapter 3 Sweeping Liuhe Chapter 1 Jin Ge's First Move Section 40 Troops Advance to Kerman

In fact, Zhan Botao's conservatism is absolutely correct, Suvorov did make quite adequate preparations before retreating, the heavy cavalry was divided into two parts in one step, one step was the first to retreat, giving the Tang army an illusion to observe the scouts, and the other part was secretly ambushed, and only the Tang army dared to follow and take advantage of the situation to kill the other party, but it is a pity that the stability of the Tang army made Suvorov's various arrangements fall short.

The retreat of the Hansen Confederate from the province of Kerman also meant that the Hansen Confederate army finally relinquished control of the largest province in West India, and the Tang army's excuse to open up the Baltic Sea in the name of His Majesty the Emperor was also realized, but in the Khora province, the Tang army's offensive was still unabated.
After the three divisions of the Indean Regiment and the four divisions of the Seventh Army were combined, the huge attack group of the Tang Army finally cleared out the Hansen League light cavalry that had been entangled in the entire eastern part of Huluo Province. In the face of the battle group that often fights with a division and regiment, the light cavalry of the Hansen Alliance does not have much to do, and the battle group of more than 20,000 people is not so easy to swallow, and these battle groups of the Tang Army are ready to sit and wait for reinforcements The light cavalry of the Hansen Alliance Army is helpless, although their attack also brought some losses to the Tang Army that strode forward, but this flank attack method was not enough to stop the Tang Army from striding towards the hinterland of Mana Province.
"This is the city of Kerman, which was once known as the holy city of the Neaism?!" A light horse rode into the city of Kerman, which was full of strong Nia atmosphere, and the dilapidated streets and magnificent Nia temples that greeted him looked so out of place, but if you look closely, you can see that these buildings that were originally Niye temples seem to have been converted to other uses, using the Niye Sutra Most of the scriptures written in the conspicuous places of the buildings have been eradicated or erased, and the once populated Nia temples seem to have been deserted, and the streets are also sparse, with many shops ajar and many people quietly peeking out through the cracks in the doors to observe the men in plainclothes and Tang clothes who have entered the city under the protection of heavy guards.
"Dashuai, this is Kerman City, what's the matter? Dashuai feels a little disappointed?" Riding a horse followed closely behind the man in the green shirt was Zhan Botao, whose face was very different from the previous few days.
The Hansen Confederate army retreated all the way north from the south of Kerman, without making any stops, and retreated back to the province of Mana, and there was no Hansen Confederate soldier in the entire Kerman Province, and the two clusters with the same heavy losses finally achieved a meeting under the city of Kerman, eight divisions of 180,000 horses, and the shortage that could reach the city of Kerman was less than 90,000 men except for the 20,000 men stationed in the ancient city of Bam, that is to say, after this unprecedented and tragic battle on two fronts of Kerman, the Gerlok Legion and the Tenth Army paid an extremely heavy price。 But the impact of this war is also considerable, the Hansen alliance hopes to be able to negotiate with the empire on the premise of ensuring the Kerman Province, Kerman is lost, Fahan Province and Mana Province are exposed to the Tang Army's attack surface, especially the Fahan Province, which was originally connected with the Kerman Province, and now the barrier is lost, there is almost no danger to defend, if you want to hold here, you have to fight with the Tang Army face to face on this land, and those nomadic small tribes have been prostrate under the various promises of the Tang people, constantly attacking the Spartan Corps that has just arrived there in the south, and the situation has changed drastically, where the Hansen Confederate army has instead become a guest army.
"Well, it's really a little disappointing, the dignified holy city, it turns out to be such a down-and-out appearance, as the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, since it is a holy city, even if it has experienced a military disaster, at least it should be much bigger than those Rossi or Kunduz, why do I look at this appearance, it seems that even Kunduz City can't be compared?"
Cui Wenxiu, who rushed to Kerman from Rossi Province, looked much better at this time than before the battle of Bam Ancient City, and even his tone of voice was much more relaxed, although the Battle of Kerman was not satisfactory to him, but the strategic goal was finally achieved, not to mention that the Hansen Alliance was indeed the first time to meet, and many situations were not reliable just by rumors. originally thought that since these guys were embarrassed in front of the Luobei people, they would naturally be able to deal with the Tang Army, but they didn't expect that what the other party showed, whether it was the combat effectiveness of the army or the command ability of the generals, was far beyond Cui Wenxiu's own imagination.
Cui Wenxiu has been reflecting on this problem along the way, and he found that many senior generals of the Tang Army, including himself, have fallen into a misunderstanding, that is, they think that the Luope people can easily sweep the Hansen Alliance, and the Tang Army can defeat the Luobei Army, which means that the Tang Army can easily defeat the Hansen Alliance, but this kind of transfer comparison has a problem. The Ropes were able to sweep through the Hansen League by virtue of their highly mobile cavalry units, while the northern part of the Hansen League was almost entirely plain, and in this geographical situation, the long border line could not build a defensive circle by relying on castles and fortresses alone, and the Rope people took advantage of this advantage to gallop across the northern plains of the Hansen League, dragging the Hansen League's army fat and thin to death. The Hansen Alliance army did not have much way to deal with the tactics of the Luope people not fighting them head-on, and the level of the nomadic rangers made any farming people can only sigh, they could only rely on the fortress to build a defensive point, and then connect it into a defensive line, this passive defense system in front of the Luope people of course only hard support, and no counterattack ability.
However, the record of the Luope people does not represent the true level of the Hansen Alliance, Cui Wenxiu thinks that the Hansen Alliance can deal with the three strong enemies of the nomads and the Famini Empire and the Augsburg Empire is the true embodiment of their level, most of the armies of the Liberian countries are learned from the Western Continent, especially the Famini Empire has always been an example for the Liberian countries to follow, but the Hansen Alliance can also be able to fight against the Famini Empire without falling behind, which alone is enough to show the true strength of the Hansen Alliance. The reason why the wrestling with the Luope people fell behind does not mean that the Hansen Alliance is inferior to the other party, but only that the situation in the northern region of the Hansen Alliance is more suitable for the nomads such as the Luope people to give full play to their strengths and advantages.
The combat effectiveness of the Tang Army is actually the same as that of Kaman and Siathrow [***] The combat effectiveness of the team is similar, like most of the second-line armies of the empire led by himself, in terms of real strength, compared to the elite of Kaman and Siathrow, I am afraid that they are slightly inferior, and it is rare to be able to achieve such a record in a battle with the main force of the Standing Army of the Hansen Alliance, and Cui Wenxiu, who understands this truth, will have a lot less loss and a little more spirit, these second-line armies can go through such a bloody battle, although it has paid a lot of price, but it is also quite valuable for the growth of a force, and many things can never be grown without being tempered by blood and fire。
Hearing what the coach said, Zhan Botao, who arrived at Kerman City first, explained with a smile: " In fact, the main essence of the Indyan Kingdom is still in the territory of the Hyderabad and Tik people, and the Yakuan people are nominally part of the Indians, but whether it is from the religion or the terrain of this area, this land is significantly different from other regions, and there are still a considerable number of nomadic tribes in this area, which is quite different from the Indyans who are completely agricultural, so in terms of population, the Yakuans are far inferior to the Hyderabad and Tik tribes, only a little more than the Punjab and the Solian tribes, less than 10 million people, and the population of the Hyderabad people has exceeded 18 million, even the Tiks are even close to fifteen million. The land of West Ind'an is also far less fertile and rich than several other regions, and the desert Gobi occupies a considerable part of the area, so it is unrealistic to say that you would like to see a huge and prosperous city, according to the local people, even during the most prosperous period of Kerman, the population of the city here is only 100,000, which is not comparable to the rest of Indean, let alone the interior of our empire. ”
"There is no place in the world that is inherently prosperous and rich, and that only shows that the rulers here are incompetent, and what can it say about such a good geographical location and advantage that it is like this, except to prove the stupidity and arrogance of these Yakuan nobles? The Baltic Sea, which is close to the busy shipping industry, and is a sacred place in the hearts of tens of millions of Nia believers on the mainland, they don't know how to take advantage of such a good location, I can't believe that there is not a decent port on such a long coastline from the province of Leibo in the south to the province of Fahan in the north, who can tell me what is going on?"
While sighing at the Yakuan people's violent destruction of heavenly things, Cui Wenxiu scratched his heart, not bringing this land under the jurisdiction of the empire is really a burden to the people of this land, as long as it is placed in the hands of the empire, I believe that it will not be long before this land will be able to radiate unprecedented vitality.
Kerman City is actually not as unbearable as Cui Wenxiu said, but the whole street is a little loose due to the difference in planning from other Indian cities, a large number of religious buildings occupy the best part of the city, but it was abandoned after the rise of the Holy Spirit, some Holy Spirit churches have been rebuilt on the site of the original Niye temple, and the religious confrontation has also led to violent conflicts between the believers of the two religions, and the situation in the whole area is unclear, which is also one of the main reasons why Kerman City looks a little desolate and depressed。
