Chapter 542: Invincible Military Front! [Subscribe]

Before dawn.

The strange phenomenon on the dome was still there, and a thick purple air filled the military camp.

The troops of the Wei army were arranged in battle array, stretching out across the plain, with flags fluttering and a solemn military presence.

Cao Cao walked slowly out of the general's tent and looked down at the long line of troops below the high ground.

The army has tens of thousands of troops and their momentum is like a tide.

"Many people want to ask why I launched this expedition!"

Cao Cao's voice was sonorous and deafening:
"Because I want to use the Western countries to strengthen my country's prestige! Let all nations prostrate themselves in fear of my powerful Wei."

"In the past, it was mostly foreign enemies that came to provoke our Shenzhou. This time, I will take the initiative to fight them. Are you willing to follow me to fight and wipe out the foreign invaders?!"

"I am willing to follow Your Majesty and expand our mountains and rivers!!"

"Wish! Wish! Wish!"

All the troops speak in unison!

The core veterans of the Wei army numbered around 250,000.

These tribesmen were filled with murderous intent, and their eyes were as sharp as knives.

Cao Cao looked up from the high ground, and the majestic dragon soul in the air turned into a long river of purple air hanging upside down in the sky, returning and rushing into his body.

This scene is soul-shaking.

When the Wei army saw this, they became even more motivated.

Afterwards, Cao Cao held a brief military sacrifice, striking the axe with his hand and pointing westward.

Below the high ground, the entire army raised their spears and responded to Cao Cao.

"The king raised his army, repaired my sword and spear, and shared the same enemy with me!"

"The king raised his troops, repaired my armor and soldiers, and went with me!"

Troops from all directions marched out in a long line like a dragon, charging into the west.

The Polynesians sent a team to serve as geographical guides for the battle in Parthia.

Cao's army marched out in several directions.

The southernmost route was led by Guan and Zhang, the elite troops of the former Shu army, the Bai Li soldiers who were good at mountain warfare.

They will advance westward along the mountains on the south side where the Polynesians are located.

They are marching in great depth along the way, cooperating with the central army in the battle. They will not participate in the battle in the early stages, but will go straight to the battle site.

The commanders of the troops on the other side were Ma Chao and Pang De.

Gan Ning also led the Jinfan Army to accompany him.

The main force of the central army is also divided into three routes: left, middle and right.

Zhao Yun was the main general on the left, and Zhuge Liang was the military advisor, who had the power to defeat the enemy and deal with emergencies.

That is, Zhao Yun is the main person in charge of military operations, and Zhuge Liang is the main person in charge of other matters. There is a political commissar and a military commander.

The main force in the middle was led by Huang Zhong as the general, Taishi Ci as the deputy, and Guo Jia as the military advisor.

Qu Yi led the crossbow troops and advanced along the center route.

On the right wing, Zhang Liao was the main general, Gao Shun was the deputy, and Lu Su was the chief military officer.

Cao Cao was behind the central army, responsible for watching the fun.

Xu Chu and Dian Wei led heavy cavalry as guards.

Jia Xu was responsible for the entire army's transit, controlling spies, investigating the enemy and ourselves, and transmitting information from all parties.

Cao Cao himself laughed at the lineup of civil and military officials dispatched by the Wei Dynasty.

"I have gathered these civil and military men just to expose the West today!"

"When these people gather together, they will be an invincible force. I will use the power of my great Wei to break through the Western countries and make all nations come to pay tribute!"

Cao Cao climbed onto the Red Hare, with Zhua Huang and Jueying on his left and right.

He was talking to Cao Ang who was accompanying him.

Next, he will take Cao Ang through this unprecedented battle.

Yin ran back and forth in front of Cao Cao's horse, roaring like a tiger, but he saw the troops from various places breaking camp and was in a hurry to join in the fun.

Two hundred cavalrymen set out to advance westward.

Behind Cao Cao, in the team transporting supplies, there were Indians led by Mahavairocana and Mahadeva themselves.

The two were talking via telephone.

"Da Jingtian, who do you think will win or lose in this battle?"

"Since then, Wei has won and Parthia has lost."

"Although Parthia was unable to fight the Kushans with all their strength because they were blocked from the west by Rome, they have fought with the Kushans for many years, with both sides winning and losing. This shows that Parthia's strength, even if it is stronger than the Kushans, is limited."

Mahavira rides on the back of an elephant.

Behind them was a baggage train pulled by more than a hundred elephants and even more oxen and horses.

"The fact that Wei defeated Kushan easily shows that Wei's power is far greater than Parthia's."

"And you saw the weather last night. The star of the central god came into the world, and it dimmed the stars in the west."

"This is God's message. This morning, we met with Emperor Wei, and he seemed to be one with heaven and earth."

Mahadeva nodded slightly.

He had similar feelings.

Before sending out the troops this morning, Cao Cao met with the Boli people and a few of them.

When several people entered the big tent, they felt a wave of fear.

Cao Cao sat there, his aura as deep as the ocean, unfathomable.

After swallowing the Emperor Star into his body and taking back the dragon soul, Cao Cao became like a living god.

Mahadeva thought for a moment and said:

"But Parthia has been established for a long time. I heard that they have national treasures left by gods. It may not be easy for Wei to win the expedition."

Da Jingtian shook his head: "Let's wait and see."

……

At noon the next day, Huang Zhong's troops in the vanguard engaged in battle with the main force of Parthia's eastern defense line.

Parthia had previously mobilized the Second Legion and the two main forces of the southern rebellion suppression army to strengthen defense in the east.

Artha Wozniacki was the commander of the Second Legion of Parthia.

Two months ago, he led his army eastward and arrived at the Kabul Plain, just in time to witness the battle where Zhao Yun leapt onto his horse and killed Sonus.

Afterwards, Wozniacki gathered the defeated soldiers and tried to reorganize the eastern defense line of Parthia, but he was defeated by Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun.

The situation did not improve until Vologases sent reinforcements from the south to suppress the rebellion.

Woz has withdrawn the battle line to the important city of Mulu in eastern Parthia.

The location of Mulu City was more than four hundred miles west of their original defense line.

In recent days, Woz has received battle reports one after another and learned that Cao’s army is at the front line and gathering troops.

"The war is coming!"

The leader of the southern rebellion army who called in reinforcements was the Parthian general Miada.

At this time, he and Woz, the two main generals, stood on the top of Mulu City and looked out of the city. Cao's army appeared at the end of their sight, and the soldiers and horses raised dust.

The three generals in the front are Huang Zhong, Taishi Ci, and Qu Yi.

Huang Zhong said, "Zilong, Wenyuan is advancing on both wings, and his army is marching at an incredible speed. Your Majesty has appointed us to lead the central army to fight, so we cannot be slower than the other two armies."

Taishi Ci smiled and said, "That's right, General."

"Beat the drums! I will personally lead the troops to charge the city!"

War drums roared.

Huang Zhong kicked his horse's belly and was the first to charge out from the army.

When he was near the city gate, he leaped into the air and slashed down with his sword.

A giant blade light over ten feet long chopped down on the city gate.

Woz and Miada went out to fight Huang Zhong.

Taishi Ci then also rushed into the battlefield.

The two armies fought with swords flashing and the battle was earth-shattering.

The Parthians had hidden plans for this battle.

After they made peace with Rome, they secretly sent more troops to the east and hid in the dark, intending to form a front-and-rear coordination with the city of Mulu.

That is, they deployed the Second Army Corps on the eastern defense line, the Fourth Army Corps of the southern rebellion suppression army, and a group of troops hidden in the dark.

In addition, there was the army under Sonus that had been defeated by Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao before.

Pitya deployed four legions to garrison the eastern front, which was nearly half of the country's total military strength.

After Wei declared a full-scale war, news of war came in like snowflakes in the Parthian capital of Nisa.

Several urgent messages a day.

Nisa, the royal palace.

"…Your Majesty, urgent news from the front line: Cao's army attacked our Mulu City yesterday afternoon."

“Captain of the Second Legion, Woz, led his men into battle.

As of yesterday evening, Mulu City was captured, and both Woz and Miada died on the battlefield!"

"The Wei army has now entered Mulu City!"

"The Wei army has other troops. They took advantage of the opportunity when their central army was holding our army back and attacked our country from the side roads. They are marching in secret and their specific destination has not yet been determined."

Messages came in one after another, and none of them were good news.

However, Vologases had been in many battles, and he did not feel afraid when his army was defeated for the first time. Instead, he felt a little excited.

He left his seat and walked back and forth on the dais where the throne stood:

"Send an order to mobilize my personal guard, the Divine Glory Corps, and the Fifth Corps to move east together. Order them to set up two lines of defense at the Amu Darya River and the Aria Plain to assist each other in defense."

"Send the third army corps eastward along the waterway to support the two armies."

Vologases' personal army, the Legion of the Gods, also known as the Cold Silver Guards, is the ace of Parthia's aces.

Its general used the title of his legion as his own, and was called Timor, the Divine General.

Vologases lingered on the throne for a few steps and said:

"Go and invite the popes of Zoroastrianism and Babylonia."

In the darkness of night, Zoroastrian Pope Urmozd and another tall and somewhat fat old man walked into the palace side by side.

The old man was the Pope of the Babylonian Church, a native sect of Parthia.

Ancient Babylonianism was born in Parthia and existed around 3000 BC. It is very old.

They have been active in the two river basins of the Mesopotamian plain.

The so-called Two Rivers Basin refers to the Euphrates and Tigris rivers in Parthia.

Its status is equivalent to the Yangtze River and the Yellow River in China.

Babylonian religion was once extremely powerful and could influence the Parthian regime.

However, they took the wrong side in the struggle for the Parthian throne and gradually lost their power, especially to Vologases.

But their heritage remains.

Vologases knew that the Babylonian sect had a knight who was at the level of a god general.

In addition to the two popes, Saxi was also called over because he had a relatively good understanding of Wei.

"The Wei army invaded Parthia and the eastern defense line was breached."

Vologasis frowned:
“This king needs your support!

"The eastern city of Mulu was captured by the Wei army. There are not many passes that can be defended on the way to Nisa. You should know clearly what the consequences will be if the Wei army reaches Nisa."

While the two popes were thinking, Vologases looked at Sasi:
"Do you know how many great generals the Wei army has?"

They investigated the Wei Dynasty a lot, but could not find any core information.

Without knowing the exact number of divine generals, it is difficult to make an accurate judgement on their military strength.

"Four or five."

Saxi was not sure about the exact amount.

He gave a rough number based on his judgment.

"Four or five..."

Vologases repeated.

Zoroastrianism and Babylonianism had always been at odds with each other, but now was a matter of life and death, and they had to unite to face the outside world.

into the night.

The two major religions each sent out their own forces to follow the army eastward.

And on the next night, more news was sent back to the city of Nisa.

At midnight, the palace was brightly lit.

"…Your Majesty, we have found the traces of the two Wei border troops after they entered the country.

They attacked the left bank of the Amu Darya from the north and south sides and entered the city on the river bank. Then they turned back and cooperated with the Wei Central Army to attack the various units of our army east of the Amu Darya River..."

Judging from the news alone, Cao's offensive may not be very intuitive.

For example, the central army of Cao Wei pushed forward head-on, and Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao on the left and right sides took advantage of the central army's containment of the Parthians to form a change in the defense line, allowing them to quickly advance to the flanks and cross the first two defense lines in the east.

They went straight to attack the third line of defense.

After Huang Zhong opened the first line of defense of Mulu City, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao worked together to break through Parthia's third line of defense.

Then the central army and the side troops formed a situation of attacking the second line of defense from the front and the back.

Although fighting in this way may seem radical and risky, it is based on the fact that Cao's army has many elite soldiers and generals, giving it an advantage.

Three days into the war, all three Parthian lines of defense in the eastern plains were destroyed and torn apart.

If the Wei army crossed the Amu Darya River again, they could bypass the Aria Plain and head straight for the city of Nisa.

This news shocked Vologasis and he couldn't sleep all night.

Cao Wei used its full strength in this war and showed its full strength. Within three days of the war, the whole country of Parthia was in an uproar.
