Chapter 702: Peacock Takes Action
Rahul really wanted to train for a few more months, but time waits for no one. The rainy season is coming soon, and when the rainy season comes , they will not be able to send out a large army.
He could fight in the dry season after the rainy season. At that time, his Peacock and Kshatriya Corps basically had the necessary combat effectiveness. However, the reinforcements from the Han Dynasty should have arrived by then no matter how busy they were.
Rahul knew very well that they had no reinforcements. The remaining Brahmin troops were basically rubbish. The only general he could look up to in Southern Gui was Janilan of Northern Gui, who had to guard the key points and could not act rashly.
Although they are fighting on home soil, their advantage is really small.
As for talking about drawing troops from the north, it is complete nonsense. If it really comes to that, the first people the Brahmins will kill are the emperor and him. Then the Han Dynasty will be able to get the advantage for free.
So no matter how hasty Rahul was, he had to take action.
Relying on the highest level of clairvoyance, Rahul could easily observe the layout of the Han Dynasty.
"Crossbow? Catapult? Piling up earth into a mountain? Is the Han camp so solid?" Rahul frowned and looked at the Han camp with a serious expression.
"He really shouldn't be underestimated. Apart from the Lord Galan, the Han Dynasty also has other capable people who are good at defending!" Rahul slowly recorded what he observed.
In fact, Rahul wanted to curse. He had thought that the Han Dynasty would engage in large-scale construction, but he did not expect that the Han Dynasty would engage in large-scale construction to such an extent. The part that could be observed from the opponent's camp was enough to make anyone give up the idea of a violent attack.
Zhang Song and his men were not doing nothing these days. All the prisoners they had captured were put into the construction, and the camp was built as a permanent fortification.
Given a few more months, they might have built a city right here, and then set up a few camps nearby to form a pincer attack, thus blocking all of the Kushans' routes to the south.
"This kind of camp is not easy to attack!" Rahul frowned.
"Should we give up attacking the camp?" Gulma said after thinking for a while.
"No, it is still necessary to attack the Han army camp, but the focus should be shifted." Rahul crossed his hands, looking a little solemn.
"My original idea was to use bait to lure the enemy out of the camp, and then send the Peacock and Kshatriya Legion to break through the enemy's camp in the shortest possible time."
Rahul shook his head and said that as long as the other commander was not a fool, he would never be fooled as he owned a castle like this.
"Forget it, prepare for battle!"
Rahul collected his thoughts and began to command the army in a tough manner without any intention of explaining.
"Peacock Legion, all the war elephants!"
After commanding other legions to steadily move out of the camp and assemble, Rahul immediately ordered his own exclusive legion, the Peacock Legion, and then activated his own blessings from gods and Buddhas.
With the help of gods and Buddhas, his clairvoyance can give the peacock soldiers unimaginable vision. They can even see beyond the horizon. This ability is not rare, but it is the best for peacocks.
"Everyone, prepare to fire at maximum force!"
Rahul used his usual tactics. Since the Han Dynasty had built an iron turtle defense shell, he would step over the shell first to force the Han Dynasty out.
"General, Peacock has not recovered yet. If we use it at maximum strength directly, I'm afraid..." The adjutant hesitated for a moment and reported to Rahul immediately. Even if Rahul personally trained Peacock, it would be difficult for him to recover to his peak.
"Just do it if I tell you to. Stop talking nonsense. I know better than you!" Rahul glanced at the adjutant with cold eyes, and the adjutant immediately fell silent.
"Peacock is my pride!" Rahul said with a hint of nostalgia. He knows peacock better than anyone else.
"Yes!" The adjutant answered loudly upon hearing this, and then began to make preparations.
At this moment, the peacock soldiers standing on the elephant's back all picked up a crossbow that was slightly larger than a human. Normally, a bow of this size is enough to rival a heavy crossbow machine, and the peacock soldiers all raised the huge bow with indifferent expressions.
Then the elephant driver took out something that was said to be an arrow, but more like a javelin, and handed it to the soldier holding the bow.
The Peacock Soldiers silently took the spears and placed them flat on the bowstrings. Relying on their clairvoyance, they could clearly see their target, a heavily defended camp.
Everything I see can read the position, distance, and all factors related to hitting. This is the first talent of the Peacock Legion, aiming.
This talent has actually strictly deviated from the effect of traditional talents. After being modified by Rahul, it can be called mental locking at its peak. However, Peacock does not yet possess that level of ability.
The giant bow was slowly pulled open, and the war elephants under the feet of the peacock soldiers continuously transmitted power. All the peacock soldiers pulled the bowstrings to the maximum. This was the peacock's second talent, borrowing power.
The same goes for this talent. At its peak, it is also all about borrowing power from the mind. Not only can it relay power from elephants, but it can also borrow power from the earth through elephants.
Strictly speaking, Peacock is a combination of two double-talented legions, one is the Peacock Soldiers and the other is the War Elephant Legion.
The war elephant's talents are simple. The first talent is the fearlessness talent, and the second talent is the heavy armor talent.
Soldiers and elephants have their own talents, so there is no problem even if they are used separately.
But when combined together, they can achieve the effect of one plus one being greater than two.
Rahul controlled the clouds, added the energy to the arrow, and nodded with satisfaction.
It's not that he has been dormant for all these years and has done nothing. At least he has made some progress in his idea of peacock.
Peacock's attack deterrence soldiers. If he wants Peacock to go further without becoming a third-talent, he thinks about it and thinks that the only way is . Now it's time to see the results of his imagination.
"Shoot!" Rahul ordered.
Following Rahul's order, the soldiers of the Peacock Legion suddenly released the bowstrings. Completely different from the heavy crossbows that relied on luck, or the throwing legion's method that relied on feeling, the Peacock Legion's shooting was locked and the accuracy was very reliable.
More than four thousand arrows burst out, and many Peacock soldiers' arms could not stop shaking. Pulling the bow with full strings made many of them feel a little exhausted.
The talent for leveraging force also needs to be developed. With their current level, they are unable to fully leverage force and can only barely complete the design level with maximum power.
Come to think of it, ever since Rahul’s departure, they have not been shooting at this intensity.
