Chapter 0553: Countermeasures

Ford looked at Arka and said with a smile: "With so many wind horses and enchanted equipment, it is worth this loss, and I have to thank the general for coming to the rescue in time, otherwise the loss will only be greater, and I, the division commander, will be at the end of it." ”

Arka shook his head with a smile when he heard this: "I just received an order from the Governor to go to Kale County to support the front line, and I just happened to pass by here. ”

As the two were talking, there was a sudden rumbling of horses' hooves in the distance.

Everyone suddenly became nervous, for fear that the black cavalry would go and return, and if the other party fought hard, they were afraid that they would suffer heavy losses.

As the sound of horses' hooves got closer and closer, Ford could see who was coming, but Salisbury had received a message for help and led his cavalry to help.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and called out loudly, "We're here." ”

Salisbury rode up to him, looked at the mess, frowned, and asked, "This is what the Black Cavalry did?"

He has seen how brave the Black Cavalry Army is in the battle report in the past few days, and hundreds of people have disturbed the Eastern Route Army, but he has not paid too much attention to it.

I only feel that the two armies are hundreds of kilometers apart, and the other side should not come here to make trouble.

At this time, seeing such heavy losses of the 2nd Logistics Division, he finally realized the seriousness of the problem.

The casualty figures were quickly counted, and the 2nd Logistics Division suffered 446 casualties, 67 seriously wounded, and more than 1,000 minor wounded.

Almost immediately, Renard received the news of the attack on the logistics baggage troops, and looked at the eye-catching casualty figures, and his brows immediately furrowed.

After a long silence, he pressed the letter on the table and ordered in an indifferent tone: "Transfer all the recruits to the battlefield." ”

Ray Dawang was shocked when he heard this, and immediately asked, "Then who will guard the Southern Wilderness County?"

Renard didn't think about it, and said directly: "The First Infantry Division and the Second Infantry Division have fought Lianke in a row, and the losses are relatively large, so let them go back to Nanhuang County to repair." ”

His meaning was clear, that all of these recruits would experience the bloodshed and cruelty of war, so that they would not be afraid to be slaughtered again in the face of a more powerful enemy.

Ray Tawang hesitated for a moment and voiced his concern: "If we send these recruits to the battlefield, I am afraid that our advance speed will be reduced a lot, and the casualties will increase several times. ”

Renard picked up his teacup

He took a sip of tea and chuckled, "Slow down, slow down, we always have to give His Majesty the King a chance to show his talents." ”

"As for casualties, where are there immortals in war, if these soldiers don't go to war for the rest of their lives, they will never become qualified soldiers, so what's the use of me raising them?"

"It's just a small fight now, and we will face even more brutal battles in the future, so instead of dragging our feet, it is better to die on the battlefield now, and we can also win a lot of money for our families. ”

It's not that Lei Ye is unkind, he only knows one truth: sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime.

In the future, he will lead a large army to the north, and the enemies he will face may be the Kingdom of Helsinki, or the Kingdom of Rowling, or the Kingdom of Lindbergh, or the Kingdom of Tornia, or even the Empire of Constantinople.

The soldiers under his command will not face these fat-brained nobles in front of them, no longer these old soldiers who can only extort money, but generals who are familiar with battle formations and real armies.

Rather than being slaughtered frantically at that time, it is better to practice skills and courage now.

Those who pass will gain power and glory, and those who fail will go home and farm as soon as possible, so as not to lose their lives.

Ray Dawang knew the reason for his decision, and couldn't help but ask: "Are the logistics troops going to the battlefield too?"

Renard nodded: "Recruits have to go to the battlefield, and the same is true for veterans with little experience in battle formations, what I need is an iron-clad army, a pack of hungry wolves, not a pack of sheep." ”

Immediately afterward, he added: "Tell them that whatever you get from the city will be privately owned." ”

Ray Dawang's pupils shrank suddenly, and he asked urgently, "You want to plunder?"

Hearing this, Lei Ye hurriedly shook his head: "The premise is that you must not disturb the common people, and those who violate it will be beheaded immediately." ”

Only then did Ray Dawang realize that the Governor was going to fight the local tyrants and divide the land.

Renard took out a long list and said, "Send this list down, it shows which lords can loot and which cannot." ”

The lords on the list who can be raided are all rich and unkind, and plundering these people will not cause him any psychological burden.

At the same time, it can also set an example for those who come after him, telling those lords and nobles who are still holding on to it that disobedience is the end.

And, of course

An important purpose is to clear the way for the future control of Kale County.

As for why there are still many lords who can't move, in fact, the reason is very simple, those are all people with real talents and hard work, and Lei Ye will use them to govern this land in the future.

After thinking about it, he suddenly said with a serious face: "Warn all soldiers that they are only allowed to loot money and materials, if anyone dares to do anything out of the ordinary......"

Before he finished speaking, Ray Dawang's eyes flashed with coldness, and he said in a tone full of murderous intent: "If someone dares to do anything out of the ordinary, I will directly cut off his head, we want soldiers, not bandits." ”

Seeing this, Renard nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand, and said, "Hurry up and go down to do something." ”

Lei Dawang took the order to leave, looking at the back of the other party, Lei Ye was relieved to have such a general who could understand his thoughts.

It's a pity that there are too few such people, at least there are not a few in the Southern Wilderness Army.

Not long after Ray Dawang left, Arka hurriedly walked into the Chinese army's tent and said, "Why did the young master call me in such a hurry?"

Renard had something important to discuss, but when he noticed the other party, he couldn't help but be stunned, and said in surprise: "You broke through?"

Arka knelt down on one knee when he heard this, and his face showed gratitude and reverence: "I was lucky to be promoted, if I didn't have the support of the young master, I was only afraid that I would stop at the peak of the legend in this life." ”

As he spoke, a few tears flashed in his eyes, which made the dignified seven-foot man so emotional, I am afraid that it is a rare thing in the world.

Renard was also very pleased, and from then on, he had another epic warrior under his command.

He didn't say anything polite to the other party, calmly accepted the other party's bow, and then shifted the topic to business.

Lei Ye pointed to the map and said: "Look at this map, now in front of you is Yinjing City, this city is ......"

He briefly introduced the topography and the city's defenses, and then asked, "Do you have any good ways to take it in the shortest time and at the lowest cost?"

Arka knew that since Lei Ye called him, he must have had a plan for a long time, and now he was just testing himself.

However, he thought about it for a long time and didn't come up with any unique opinions, so he had to say helplessly: "Otherwise...... Attack with fire?"
