Chapter Eighty-Seven: The First Battle of the White City Ends
The First Battle of the White City is over.
From the time the army of Mordor crossed the Horn Fort until the end of the battle, the whole battle lasted for seven days, and a total of 250,000 people were invested on both sides, 140,000 Mordor, 110,000 Terrans, of which 70,000 humans were killed and 60,000 Mordor were killed, of course the Terrans would not have such a high casualty rate, although the battle was particularly tragic, but there were no such huge casualties, among the 70,000 casualties, 40,000 were from the Terran refugees who were forcibly driven away by Mordor, and the remaining 30,000 were the soldiers who were really killed, don't underestimate this number, Even in the first battle of the modern battlefield, there are few terrible losses of 30,000 people killed in a week, except for a few famous battles, most of the time there will be such large losses.
Modern warfare is still like this, not to mention the Middle Earth that is still in the Middle Ages, and this does not count the loss of Mordor, Mordor actually did not lose much in wartime, and the normal battle is no more than 10,000 at most, and this also shows Mordor's amazing combat power from the side, if it were not for Elon's light enemy advance and Lelouch's sudden appearance, even if Mordor failed to capture the White City this time, it would only be a matter of time.
Fifty thousand of Mordor's 60,000 people died on the road to defeat (in fact, in ancient wars, more than 90 percent of the casualties occurred in the rout, and this proportion has been severely reduced here), and the remaining 40,000 people successfully hid in all corners with the help of the cover of night and luck, and in the pursuit for three consecutive days after winning the battle, Mordor has completely hidden, originally according to Lelouch's meaning, it should continue to be pursued, after all, the combat power of 40,000 Mordor soldiers is still not to be underestimated, But after three days of long fighting, the soldiers' physical strength has reached the limit.
And a more important reason is that the reinforcements of the Grand Duke of the West and the Grand Duke of the East have finally arrived.
The arrival of 60,000 fresh troops replaced the work of the Limburg Legion and the defenders of the White City, and it was only fitting that they would be responsible for clearing the remaining 40,000 Mordor soldiers, and it was only fitting that Lelouch smiled when he heard the news of the arrival of reinforcements from the West and East Frontiers, and it seemed that there were not many people who had the same idea as him.
At this time, Lelouch rode his war horse on a small hill, and behind him was the camp of the Limburg legion.
The battle has been over for two days, thanks to Lelouch's advance preparations, the logistics of the Limburg Legion is extremely sufficient, even on the front line, the Limburg soldiers can still eat fresh vegetables and meat, and even have stored dried apples, and the damaged weapons and equipment have also been replaced and repaired at the first time, at this time, under the hill, is a team of the West and East Territory Alliance, to be honest, it has been almost two years since he came to Middle-earth, and Lelouch has barely had an understanding of the basic situation of the four realms of the heaven-given land.
These understandings are mainly from these soldiers, because the northern border is in the middle of the control of the Terran and Mordor, the economy is relatively backward, but the people are strong and the morale is high, while the southern border is rich in land, huge population, and developed economy, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the last core area of the human race.
As for the western realm, the economy is average, the population is average, but it is extremely outstanding in knights, and it is also the most active area of the church, at this time, from Lelouxiu's point of view, in the west, in the east, at least three-quarters of the knights came to the west, and it is not that kind of ordinary knights, but extremely well-equipped high-level knights, they are not inferior to the noble knights of the White City in terms of equipment, and they are not inferior to the northern realm in terms of fighting spirit, and as for the combat effectiveness, Lelouch saw with his own eyes a knight of the western realm who single-handedly attacked the Mordor rout of a hundred people, These routs were led by the orcs and dared to fight, but they were defeated by a knight of the West, who killed the orcs on the spot, killed three of the toughest orc soldiers, and then pursued and killed those defeated routs.
This kind of combat effectiveness really made Lelouch drop his glasses fiercely, the western realm is famous for knights, speaking of which, the three realms of the south and northwest have their own characteristics, and their characteristics are reflected in their respective armies, but unread this eastern realm makes Lelouch can't figure it out, the eastern realm is close to the Elven Annaris Forest, so there is a lot of woodland, and the eastern realm does not like to destroy the forest, so the eastern realm has less arable land and a small population, except for the more developed handicraft industry and more light industry products, there is no characteristic.
The soldiers in the east wore the same equipment that Leluxiu had equipped for the soldiers when he started, and the paneled leather armor was probably because of the lush woodland, and it was a terrible thing that all the soldiers in the east were wearing armor.
Seeing the west-east coalition army go away, Lelouch was still muttering questions about the east in his heart
"My lord, we're all set."
Frank didn't know when, came behind Lelouch, and Frank, who killed the Wyvern in the battle, became famous all of a sudden, and the scene of the flying skull killing the Wyvern was deeply imprinted in the eyes of the Limburg Legion and the defenders of the White City.
"Yes."
Lelouch responded slightly, and finally looked at the distant West-East Coalition Army, Lelouch turned around and left, at this time in the barracks, the Limburg Legion had already formed a team, they were wearing clean armor, fully armed, and the gray cloak was neatly draped behind them, and the whole team looked extremely heroic.
Of course, Lelouch did not return to Limburg, in fact, this was Lelouch's proposal, proposing a military parade to appease the residents of the White City, of course, there were various teams participating in the parade, but the most important thing, of course, was Lelouch's Limburg Army and the defenders of the White City, and the West and East Border Coalition Army symbolically sent a little team, after all, this time the Battle of the White City, it is not an exaggeration to accuse the West and East of the West and East of the enemy for surrendering.
The novel approach of the military parade was carried out with the strong support of Richard, Lelouch's Limburg Legion was located in the fourth group, in front of which were the White City Guard, the Southern Legion, and the Northern Legion, three teams, Lelouch A small Earl team can be ranked in front of the West and East Border, which is already extremely face-saving, Lelouch did not pay too much attention to it, anyway, for the parade, Lelouch was not afraid of anyone.
God, azure
The white clouds floated with the breeze, and the battle on the ground had just ended, although the battle had just ended, but the White City was already full of festive colors, and the defeat of Mordor made the White City Terran extremely excited, especially the residents of the outer city, in their opinion, the day when they would return home may not be far away.
Colorful flags fluttered in the eaves, all kinds of colored flags, but the most, still count Lelouch's Red Dragon Earl Flag, after all, in the eyes of all the people of Baicheng, it was Lelouch who created all this, and Lelouch was the ultimate savior.
