Chapter 202 Strong Soldiers and Well-equipped
There are several ways for these ordinary soldiers to upgrade from 1 crystal to more than 100 crystals in just half a year. For example, training, fighting, such as meditation, absorbing, or directly absorbing energy crystals, but considering that crystals are too precious, it is cost-effective to swallow pills.
Taking Yunqi pills as an example, each soldier should reach 100 crystals, of which at least 70 crystals rely on absorbing medicinal power, and 7 Yunqi pills are needed. The cost of a single pill is more than 200 gold coins for each soldier. If it is converted into the ancient system, it is 40-ytium gold for one person.
The elite soldiers are not only trained with blood, but also the accumulation of gold.
In order to test the ability of soldiers to fight head-on with orcs, in the last battle, he preferred to fight head-on, predicting a large number of casualties. I'm afraid this kind of loss is unbearable for any lord.
If one-third is killed, one ton of gold will be lost.
"Fight, if you can't beat the orcs head-on, it means that it is wrong to promote ordinary soldiers, and now there is still time to make new plans." The night suddenly gritted his teeth and said to Wen Zhongdao.
"The Lord is bold!" As a wise man, when he made an important analysis, he completely eliminated his personal emotional factors and only started from a utilitarian perspective.
In his opinion, the force under the command of the night can be divided into three steps. Low-end force of 10 crystals, middle-end force of 100 crystals, and high-end force of 1000 crystals. This battle is time to test the mid-range force. It is the limit for ordinary soldiers to reach this level. It is almost impossible to upgrade to Lanwu. There are not only resources, but also personal qualifications.
If the middle-end force is too damaged when competing head-on with the orcs. In the future, we will adjust the strategy and tend to develop high-end force.
In the carriage, there was silence.
The Xianfan Pass is approaching, and there is a loud trumpet.
Open the curtain of the car at night and poke your head out. After some operation, Xianfan Pass turned out to be an arc-shaped high wall. It is 15 meters high, 75 meters long and 10 meters wide. There are tooth holes on the top and a door hole in the middle.
The high wall is facing the exit of Shenxian Mountain, and more than 20 long archers are stationed at the top of the high wall.
It was Zhao Yibiao who came to ride in the distance.
"Lord," Zhao Yibiao turned over and disembarked and saluted the night.
The night poked its head out of the car and waved to him: "Let's go. Let's talk about it when we get to the checkpoint."
Zhao Yibiao obviously heard the anxiety in the voice of the night, but he was not easy to ask. He turned the horse's head, followed behind the carriage and entered the pass.
The curved wall is encircle with a flat ground. The floor is full of tents,
Everyone sat on the ground, and the night pointed to the Fairy Mountain and asked, "Zilong, how many people have been lost in the past few months?"
"I reported to the lord that in the first month, because I was not familiar with the terrain, I had no experience to deal with the orcs. When acting as a team, all three teams were destroyed. When it comes to the consumed soldiers, Zhao Yibiao looked entangled: "In the later stage, I gradually figured out some methods. Only sporadicly attacked, and almost a dozen people were lost."
"So there are only about 300 soldiers left now?"
"Yes"
The night stared at Zhao Yibiao for a while, which made him feel fury. Then he continued to say, "The loss in the early stage is within my prediction. It's a good job. But in the future war, you can't win by sneak attacks and harassment. You have to be prepared.
Zhao Yibiao's bad foreboding is getting stronger and stronger.
"Let me say it," Wen Zhong shook his fan and said, "The master means that you can face the enemy in the final sweep battle to test the ability of the soldiers. In the past few days, you should study the strategy and how to minimize casualties.
"How much loss is allowed?" Zhao Yibiao hesitated for a moment, but still did not put forward any rebuttal.
The night stared into his eyes and said seriously, "Zilong, a large number of orc invasions is inevitable. This is the battle to exterminate the clan. Don't take any chances. We must train enough force to deal with the orcs in the shortest time. If the soldiers can't do it, I can only change the resource tilt and re-plan.
There was a silence for a while, and there was footsteps in the distance.
Night looked up. It was Jietian and Xiaoxin who rushed over after getting the news. Seeing that everyone's faces were solemn, they didn't say much and directly found a place to sit down.
"In the final battle, Xiaoxin and Jietian did not participate." The night glanced around and made a decision: "General Zhao is fully responsible, and the strength is limited to the soldiers under his command."
Jie Tian looked a little worried. He was responsible for intelligence reconnaissance and had a thorough understanding of the situation of the orcs.
He interrupted: "Although the orcs have destroyed most of them, the rest should be the most powerful. The number is still quite large, almost 200 people.
The night waved his hand to stop him: "Two hundred orcs make you hesitate so much. What are you going to do when the world is overwhelming in the future? Guard or escape? Don't forget our final task.
Seeing that Zhao Yibiao had come to a conclusion, it was useless to say more, so he had no choice but to accept it. After thinking about it, he still made a request: "Nowadays, ordinary soldiers have accumulated centurion-level crystal power in their bodies. But so far, only people above the captain level have learned the primary use of crystal power. Can you let ordinary soldiers also learn the secrets provided by Mr. Wen?
"It's accurate. I'll give you ten days." Night was originally worried about leaking secrets, but now the situation has changed, and it is difficult to make a perfect solution.
After the discussion at this time, the next step is to prepare for work.
Zhao Yibiao summoned all the soldiers and formed a phalanx, which was reviewed by the night.
These soldiers traveled thousands of miles with the night, and with three months of experience in the Fairy Mountain, they have long faded away. They all looked resolute and had fierce eyes.
Their equipment has been greatly improved. The martial arts above the captain level are carrying a hundred forged fine steel weapons made by Hawke, and they are wearing chain armor mixed with fine steel and bronze.
Wolong-level, full-body leather armor. Ordinary soldiers are only protected by leather armor at key points. The weapons they use are divided into two types, one is a meteorite weapon with about five forgings, and the other is a bronze weapon with about ten forgings.
Such equipment is already among the top in the whole bronze trial field.
The best equipment belongs to the long bow team led by Li Ying. The night hunted the feathers brought back by the seven-level Warcraft from the Devil Mountain, which made them all cheap. This kind of feather is flexible and elastic, and it is a rare bow arm material.
In terms of accurate range, they can now hit any target within 300 meters at a fixed point. If it is an overshoot, the range can exceed 500 meters. There are nearly a hundred such soldiers. They are Zhao Yibiao's biggest support against the orcs. Equipped with three-front and three-edged arrows coated with poison, it can cause fatal damage to orcs.
If you fight head-on and make full use of these long-range strike forces, you can minimize casualties.
"Guys, you have worked hard these three months." On the horse, the night shouted to the soldiers: "At the end of this battle, everyone takes turns to take a month's vacation, and they can visit the Zuixiangxie and Manchun Courtyard."
The crowd burst into cheers, and the lord was really too enlightened.
The night pressed down with both hands, and the effect of the ban immediately came out. The crowd was suddenly silent and listened.
"After the Fairy Mountain is cleaned up, you will settle down here. Those who reach the age of 40 will be allocated land and allowed to get married. If you have reached the age of 60 or have served for 20 years, you are allowed to retire as a reserve. You can choose to retire from the subsidy or accept the assignment of social positions. The night made many attractive promises, which were not nonsense, but after careful consideration.
The age of soldiers must be young, and the army must maintain vitality and purity.
Let ordinary soldiers see hope and give them enough compensation and respect. Only in this way can they have a strong sense of belonging and work hard.
High pressure and strong command can only be used for a while, not for a long time.
According to the natural life expectancy of 200 years in this world, retired soldiers are actually young. Once the war starts, it can also be collected temporarily. This plan is to hide soldiers and the people.
In fact, these plans have also been discussed with Wen Zhong at night. Wen Zhong thought it was too long-term and almost overflowed their trial time. But the night still persisted. He couldn't take advantage of the indigenous people in these trials and let go.
Even if he will not come back in the future, he will screen the good materials and pass on the power.
Don't ask for anything in return, but ask for peace of mind.
......
Immortal Mountain, a hidden cave, gathers a large number of orcs.
Since the destruction of the transmission altar, they have lost the power of backup. After the siege, they tried to break out from the only passage. Who knows that the human beings guarding the export are extremely powerful. Small-scale raids are just delivering vegetables.
The wise man planned a large-scale counterattack, and only a few orcs broke through. Those orcs also took away seven eagle-headed men, who were the only air mobile force. Unfortunately, these breakout orcs did not return. It was not clear whether they were destroyed or abandoned their companions and hid happily.
A one-legged beast is giving orders. He is the energy controller of the 5,000 crystals. Due to the lack of medical treatment, he directly cut off his rotten and purulent left leg after being injured in the First World War.
He spit out a large list of words that he couldn't understand, as if he was mobilizing before the war.
Those orcs were bewitched and howled, and their voices were characterized by both humans and beasts.
A wise man has been attacked to death, and their living space is constantly being compressed. The human beings in the fairy mountain, those who escaped and those who did not escape, were also slaughtered. Fortunately, I found a lot of food, and I didn't starve to death.
They dare not go out alone and must maintain a collective action of more than ten people.
Their opponents are very cunning. They never fight head-on and only sneak in the dark. Unfortunately, the orcs' ability to listen to orders is very limited. Many orcs do not obey the command and go out without permission, and eventually lose their lives. Today, the rest are willing to accept the command, and there are only about 200 people in total.
In three months, they lost more than 300 people, with an average of three to four people missing or dying in one day.
The leading orc suddenly lay on the ground, knelt down to the east, and let out a heartbreaking howl. The voice was full of panic and despair.
