The Three Kingdoms

His words reassured Cao Xiu's somewhat messy mood.

However, he also added a sentence, which was shocking: "Chief Zhuge Liang has another sentence, which is to remind Commander Cao that he treats everyone equally, but Commander Cao should not let him down!"

"Please rest assured, Chief of Staff Deng, I will not disappoint Chief of Staff Zhuge when I go to the battlefield!"

Cao Xiu knew that Zhuge Liang was reminding him not to work hard.

That shows that this battle is not as simple as what Deng Zhi said. I am afraid that the city of Tela is a hard bone that needs to be crushed even if his teeth are broken.

Three days later, Mulu City.

Zhuge Liang couldn't help but smile when he received the news from Guishuang Prefecture. He immediately rushed to the main camp of the Chinese Army and met Tai Shici: "Commander, the opportunity for us to break through Sucia City and defeat the main force of the Parthian Army has come! "

"Say!"

When Tai Shici heard this, he was a little excited.

"Susia City has a deadly place, here!" Zhuge Liang spread out the map, pointing to a city southeast of Susia City.

"Terra City?"

"There are two reasons why Sucia City is indestructible. One is that they gathered the rest of the main force and waited for work at leisure, so they couldn't hold on. But now they are locked up by us step by step, and the surrounding support is cut off. Even in a strong city, they will Because of the lack of supplies, the self collapsed, Sucia City can still persist because there is another reason, that is, it has an auxiliary city, which forms his strongest barrier and logistical supply, Tela City!"

Zhuge Liang pointed to the location on the map: "If you take this place, you can take Sucia City!"

"I know this, but Terra City is not easy to fight. At least its position is difficult for us to break through. It is like being tightened by the eagle of Sucia City!"

Tai Shici looked at the location where the two cities connected on the marching map, and said with a wry smile: "There is no way to start!"

"Just let it spread its wings!"

"Speak clearly!"

"We attacked head-on, attacked for three days in a row, put on a decisive battle of life and death, and forced them to put all their heavy troops in Sucia City!"

"Then it will be very difficult for us to deal with their frontal forces, how can we divide our troops?"

"We have reinforcements!"

"Reinforcement?"

"The commander forgot that the reinforcements from the Guanzhong Legion have already entered Guishuang Prefecture!"

Zhuge Liang said with a smile.

"Being unprepared, your slashing from east to west is quite ruthless, but the city of Tela has an advantage, so it's not so easy to fight!" Tai Shici gasped: "The main force of the Guanzhong Army hasn't arrived yet. It's just the vanguard, so aren't they..."

"It is inevitable to pay casualties, and this bloody battle is actually a good thing for us...or for them!"

Zhuge Liang said calmly.

[Chapter 1320 of the text, Extinguishing Sabbath Fifteen]

Sucia City, this is one of the more famous main cities in the Parthian Empire.

This large-scale city is the core of the northeast of the Parthian Empire. It is sheltered behind Mulu City. It once inherited the economic and trade development of the Parthian Empire and the Guishuang Empire. Therefore, the population and economy are the most prosperous in the Parthian Empire.

At this moment, this city with a prosperous economy and a large population has become an extremely solemn military town that supports the whole city.

The main force of the standing army of the Parthian Army, together with tens of thousands of slave soldiers conscripted, and tens of thousands of armored cavalry stationed on the left and right sides, they have placed a full force of 20 troops here.

Except for the soldiers and horses deployed in Nissa City in the northwest of the empire, all other soldiers and horses have basically gathered in Sucia City.

This can be regarded as a heavy formation, the arrogance of the soldiers of the Parthian Army is rising, and the morale is like a rainbow.

The morale that was low because Mulu City was taken by Wu Jun has completely disappeared.

A victorious battle can inspire the army more than any words.

Since the cavalry duel on the plains outside Mulu City, the soldiers of the Parthian Army seemed to have regained their confidence in fighting against the Easterners in the victorious atmosphere.

The victory of the cavalry is their confidence.

They have at least cavalry.

And the Orientals were not undefeated, and eventually became their defeat.

Due to various reasons, these resting soldiers began to clean up their moods, and tried their best to cheer themselves up, preparing for the final decisive battle.

And because the Wu army had already lost on the battlefield to the empire's omnipresent armored cavalry, the fear of the Eastern Wu people in these Parthed soldiers' hearts was gradually lost.

Fear disappears, and what returns is the courage to fight.

When the beating drums sounded, the soldiers of the Parthian Army who had begun to cheer up, seemed like an eagle waking up from a deep sleep, about to spread their wings and expose their sharp teeth.

But at this time, Akbar, the general who commanded the entire Parthian Army, felt a faint sense of unease.

At the north gate of Sucia, the highest part of the city, a Parthian veteran who was about sixty years old stood upright, facing the wind, staring at the distant plain outside the city with calm eyes, but his heart could not calm down for a long time.

The resting veteran's name is Ben Akbar Ramos.

He is the first commander of the Parthian Army.

Since entering the army at the age of 12, Akbar has fought for the Parthian Empire for 45 years. From an ordinary serf soldier to the current No. [-] general of the Parthian Empire, he is a legend in the Parthian Empire.

"Dear General, General Samotou has entered the city, and he is begging to see you at the bottom of the city!"

A Parthian youth came up and reported.

"Please come up!"

Hearing this, Akbar came back to his senses and said in a low voice.

"Yes!"

The Parthian youth nodded, and soon came up with a burly and strong man. This man had a fierce face, but he could restrain his fierceness, and stood cautiously behind Albak.

"My lord general, the Easterners have already broken through the defense of Mount Tu'an and have driven straight in. According to the report of our cavalry scouts, at their speed, it should take at most one day before they can approach the city and attack our city of Sucia directly!"

Samotou was notoriously rebellious among the Parthian Army.

Even Il, the number one warrior of the Parthian Empire, could not subdue him, but he respected Akbar very much.

He is Akbar's disciple, and he is also a lifelong cavalry warrior taught by Akbar himself. No matter what era or country he is in, the relationship between teachers and students is still very deep.

He respected this old man who was too old to lift an epee with his hands, but could support the Parthian Empire with his backbone.
