"It's true that it's still behind the times..." Chen Qing smiled bitterly and turned to look in the direction of Talas City. He wanted to win this battle with the Qinglin Army in addition to leaving no regrets, and there was another idea to confirm that he wanted to see that the Qinglin Army did not fall behind. However, judging from the current situation, he did not get the result he wanted.

Compared with the Shield and Sleeping Crossbow Legion, the Qinglin Army did not have any fatal weaknesses, but he knew very well that long-range strikes and no contact with war were the direction of future war development, and Lin Han was also promoting the development of this process. What Lin Han said to Ning Leng was actually what he said to all the generals and soldiers now.

Lin Han said that Ning Leng's Scourge Legion was the last afterglow of the four major legions. Chen Qing didn't understand what this meant before, but after seeing the combat method of the Cypress Legion, he understood it.

It's indeed the afterglow... I'm afraid only Lin Han, who is the Grand Commander, knows what to do in the future. It is true that both the Shield Guards and the Bed Crossbow Legion have extremely obvious or even fatal weaknesses, but fighting is not the business of a single legion. The ceiling of combat power such as the Scourge Legion can be limited. In battle, fighting is a cooperation. When the weakness of one legion is precisely the advantage of another legion, then the two legions will become a complementary whole.

Lin Han promoted this process of change. Indeed, this battle also exposed the weaknesses of the Bed Crossbow Legion. Once the enemy is dispersed, the lethality of the Bed Crossbow Legion will be greatly reduced. However, from another perspective, if the opponent really disperses because of the deterrent power of the Bed Crossbow Legion, it is also the most popular situation for the Daning Cavalry.

Whether it is cavalry or infantry, it is impossible to compete with the cavalry's charge without forming a formation... Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Lin Han valued the Bed Crossbow Legion.

When Chen Qing thought of this, he couldn't help but look in the direction of Ning Leng's ambush. Being the afterglow of the setting sun was both an honor and a sorrow. He was even a little grateful that Ning Leng, who needed to face these things, was Ning Leng but himself... Perhaps going home to take care of his grandson was a good choice... Chen Qing did not organize a counterattack, but even deliberately pulled the battlefield away from Talas City. There would be no problem with guarding the Shield Guards and the Bed Crossbow Legion in Talas City. The only thing he needs to worry about is to keep a certain distance and not be affected by the long-range strikes of the Bed Crossbow Legion.

......Apudula flashed a hint of surprise in Khalid's eyes. It has to be said that Khalid's analysis of the battle situation is indeed extraordinary. No matter what, the other party saved his life. If Khalid had not been able to help, I would have really explained it to the battlefield this time... Chen Qing, he remembered this name, but there are more important things for Apudula to explain.

"Governor General, what should we do next..." Khalid could also see that the current situation was led by the Daning army. He didn't know why the battle was fought like this, but in his opinion it was completely a crime of non-war. It was not that there was a gap between Apudula and the other party's commander, and even if there was a gap between the two sides, it wouldn't be so big.

The real gap comes from a more basic aspect. Daning's arrangements are one after another, but they can only deal with each other. If they maintain the military formation, they will definitely become a living target for Daning's long-range attack legion. However, if it disperses, they will be targeted by the legion that Daning specifically deals with this situation... This is an unsolvable situation, and it is also an experienced master of Apudula. If he takes action, he may collapse in the first step. Faced with the strangulation of Daning, a strange legion, he would not have made a quick decision to gather troops to charge, and he might have even swallowed up the central army before he could come back to his senses.

"Next, you will be in command. The first thing you need to do is to catch as many people as possible. Our people must be kept at a certain number. Now Daning should have a trump card in his hand, that is, the cavalry legion represented by the Scourge Legion. If the scale cannot be guaranteed, even if we escape Talas City, our fate will not be much better than the dog of the Storm. Take as many people as possible..." Apudura looked at Kalid with difficulty. His uneasiness did not dissipate because of Chen Qing's mistake, but became even stronger. At this point, even if he only wanted to say that the Empire underestimated the enemy. Daning was really trying to kill him. Even if he couldn't kill the Empire, he must tear off a piece of meat from the Empire's hands.

If the Empire cannot recognize the seriousness of the problem at this time, then there will only be more things left.

"The last general understands...the assembly is over..." Khalid nodded. Apudura's worries are definitely not groundless. He is a person who has fought with Ning Leng. He is very clear about the power of the Daning Cavalry Legion. Until now, the Daning Cavalry has not entered the field. It is obvious that it is not going to repair it, but waiting for them on the way to evacuate... "We go to the city of Talas to show off our power. The next journey is an extremely difficult beginning for us. We decided not to let our morale continue to be sluggish...

..” When Apudulla said this, he was a little self-deprecating. He was more willing to describe it as embarrassing. But he could only say the current situation. He had just experienced a frustrated battle, which made the morale of the soldiers under his command reach freezing point. They urgently needed a way to increase morale. Showing his power at the city of Talas is the easiest and most direct way... "Yes..." Khalid heard it, was he frustrated? He was naturally frustrated, but even if he was frustrated, he could only do this.

"Incorporate the elite troops into ordinary soldiers and disband the army based on the terrain of Talas City..." Apudura then looked at Khalid with a serious face and said his arrangement. This arrangement seemed to be a death, even if he himself felt that he was a death, but his intuition told him that if he did not do this, he would not be a death but a death... "Ah?

Why is this?"

Khalid looked at Apudula with puzzled expression. If he could understand the governor's intentions in the previous two arrangements, he would not understand this order of death.

"Have you noticed that Daning's Shield Guards and the Long-range Strike Legion disappeared when we launched the charge, why?

I am betting that if the crossbow legion and the shield guards are strangling our army, the closer we get to Talas City, the safer it will be for us, because the most important figure in the Daning army will definitely be in Talas City. This conflict of this scale is not worthy of such a person's personal ending..." "In this way, the other party will be afraid of weapons, and no one dares to point his weapons at his commander..." "Yes, on the contrary, if the shield guard and the long-range strike legion are in Talas City, they will incorporate elite troops into ordinary soldiers, and spread their formations to effectively reduce casualties. Nothing is more important than leaving here alive. The so-called victory or defeat, the so-called glory, as long as you die, everything is gone, the dead may be able to obtain supreme glory, but only those who are alive can bear the burden of the empire. Do you want to be a dead hero or a soldier who will survive and bear the fate of the empire!"

"I... are willing to choose the latter..." Khalid stood there in a daze. Apudula's arrangement was to escape. All arrangements were to make it easier to run away with your head. But as Apudula said, the ending of Talas City is already destined. The alive army is more valuable than the army that died in battle... The empire does not need heroes, the empire needs strength, and any living force is precious.

"Forget Talas. Maybe we will take back here in ten or twenty years or even longer, but what the empire really has to do now is to defend the Persian Governor's Office! The next battlefield where the empire collided with Daning is, don't waste your life on a battlefield without any value..." Apudula just fell into the Daning plot by chance from the beginning, which does not mean that the governor is a fool. From a larger perspective, he can see what Lin Han can see. Even if Apudula is willing to admit that he lost unjustly at this time, he will not accept it if he really wants to convince him.

"Yes..." Khalid nodded heavily. The war around Talas City has ended and there has even been a result. Instead of tangling with the destined result, it is better to think about how to change the fate of waiting for him next. Looking back, there is no meaning. The crisis in front of him has not passed. Even if the crisis in front of him has passed, the challenge and crisis have just begun for the empire. They still have a lot of things to do. Instead of tangling with failure, it is better to think about how to win in the future.
