Chapter 213: Transformation
During this time, the generals of the Brilliant Empire's forces had a great time.
Yes, they do treat this series of military operations as "playing". The object of the play is the Riga army, which used to make them fearful.
And the generals once again marveled at the great generals who had repeatedly performed miracles.
Facts have proved that the four people who the general asked the army to wait for are really of unimaginable value. Although it is not a top-level martial arts powerhouse, the role it plays is equally extremely important.
Under the leadership of the four people, the troops of more than 3,000 people attacked everywhere, and the tactics of harassment, fatigue, lure, and ambush were brought into full play. Combined with the unique terrain here, the enemy's 20,000 troops were beaten to a lossless temper.
Due to the huge gap in the strength of the armies of the two sides, even if the Brilliant Empire side took the initiative and advantage, it still fought very carefully, and it was impossible to gain much in every battle. But I can't stand this kind of small-scale battles that happen frequently, and every time I fight piecemeal, the enemies annihilated are actually close to 2,000 people!
Boy! This result was much more than the number of kills in the first head-to-head battle between the two sides.
The most important thing is that such a battle is easy to fight, easy to win, and not much dangerous. Although the number of kills was equal to the number of its own troops combined, the Glorious Empire suffered almost no casualties.
Isn't it easy? Teasing people all over the world, waiting for the enemy to show their flaws, they rush forward when they see the opportunity, not to mention the ambush plots, and there are many people who bully the few people.
If the pursuing enemy army is too strong and too numerous, the brilliant troops will take people around in a circle, and then pat their butts and walk away. It's called a chic and neat, but it's hard to see how the people of Riga can find their way back to this place where they look up and look exactly the same.
They can't let their guard down yet, and while looking for a way, they are on strict guard with full spirit, which is really tiring and tired. But there is no way, once it relaxes and reveals a little flaw, who dares to guarantee that the group of gophers will not kill them and beat them up.
This is a precedent, and this is how the largest loss of personnel of the Riga army came about.
If you can beat it, you can fight, and if you can't beat it, you can run. Coupled with Anthony's various means, the army he led was well-equipped and well-protected. There is also an endless healing elixir as the final guarantee.
This series of favorable factors combined, and the leading generals of the Brilliant Empire felt that if they could not achieve such a result, it would be completely their own incompetence.
The generals have now figured out that the greatest contributors to this guerrilla war are the four people who the general has been waiting for. If it weren't for the four people who were extremely familiar with the terrain here to lead the way, even if the general's layout was fine, the effect would probably be greatly reduced.
Or simply think so: without them, this set of guerrilla tactics will not work at all!
And the origin of the four people was quickly inquired about by the generals.
They didn't mean to keep it a secret at all.
Gray wolf, violent bear, cunning fox, rat king.
That's their code name, and that's their name.
They turned out to be the bandit leaders in the area, and they were said to be quite famous. Some of the generals in this unit have actually heard of their names.
But when Anthony opened a trade route for the Hilton family, the four people who were entrenched in the trade road were defeated and captured, and later surrendered to Anthony and secretly became the boy's subordinates.
"Brother Gray Wolf, in this way, the four of you are still the first group of people to join the general!"
The friendship of the soldiers is all fought, the big and small battles are fought, and the four of them can be regarded as the first merit in the battle, and the generals and the gray wolf and other four people have long been hooked up and called brothers.
The gray wolf looked at the bearded general with a look of envy and jealousy, and his tone was also sour, eager to replace him, and he couldn't help but be confused by the second monk, and he couldn't figure out what was worthy of envy about his identity and others.
However, it is certain that the identity of the bandits in the past did not care at all in the eyes of these generals.
"Yes, we didn't think we could do anything to provoke Mr. Anthony, oh, now it's time to call the General. The final result, of course, was that he was captured in defeat and became a prisoner of the general. ”
The part that was cleaned up by Anthony in an incomprehensible way, the gray wolf did not say it. Thinking about it, the young man specially used the secret method on the four of them behind his back, probably not wanting outsiders to know.
The bearded general heard that there was a sense of loneliness and loneliness in his tone, and he couldn't help but reach out and pat the gray wolf's shoulder heavily.
"Brother, those of us who lick the blood on the knife edge, we may die at the hands of whom we will one day. Winning or losing is even more commonplace, so you don't have to take it too seriously. ”
He comforted the gray wolf, thinking that the other party was angry because of the defeat at that time. But as he spoke, his train of thought went astray.
"Besides, what is there to be discouraged about being defeated at the hands of the general. Since his debut, whether he is fighting alone or leading the army, who do you see can please him in his hands? For example, Riga General Franky, a famous general in the mainland, a gold-level fighter, is awesome enough and scary, right? Outside the imperial capital, he was beaten by the general like a dog. The battle of Taranto to counter-insurgency was also the time when the general suddenly took over command of Aberdeen's army, withstanding Frankie's inevitable attack and disrupting his overall plan. ”
"Therefore, there are more people who have been defeated under the general, and I am afraid that there will only be more in the future, and there is really no need for my brother to go to his heart. On the contrary, the general is willing to accept you, that is a good thing that the ancestors accumulate virtue and cannot be envied by others. Oh, when a thief also has such an opportunity, why didn't Lao Tzu run to occupy a mountain and wait for the general to come and take me in! ”
The gray wolf only thought he was joking, and looked at the generals around him, and there was a look of great approval in his eyes, and he couldn't help but be very curious.
"Why do you seem to care so much about the timing of joining the General's command? Is there any mystery in this that no one knows? ”
The army had just annihilated a negligent enemy squad and was looking for a secluded place to rest. The officers chatted in twos and threes, and the cunning fox and others were also sitting around, and they couldn't help but prick up their ears to listen.
They also want to know the answer to this question. Because the eyes of those generals look at them are the same as gray wolves.
The beard looks like he hates iron but not steel: "Oops~ Isn't this obvious?" Look at Mr. Tang Feng, look at Mr. Paul, and look at the 300 guards. The early bird has worms to eat, and the first person to follow the general, which is not a pheasant to become a phoenix now, is worth a hundred times. The four of you didn't know it before, but now that you have just come out, you have made such a big contribution immediately. This soaring soaring sky, it can be said that it is just around the corner. I only hope that my brothers will develop in the future, and don't forget those of us who once went into battle to kill the enemy. ”
The gray wolf said no, no, and he understood a little bit in his heart.
Although they are still a little confused, the generals in these armies are extremely optimistic about the future of themselves and the other four. The reason for this is actually because he and others were the first to be subdued by Anthony and work for the former nameless boy and now the imperial general.
Indeed, look at Tang Feng's current scenery, although his position is not conspicuous, but because he is Anthony's confidant, which big man in the army dares not to greet him with a smile.
But the gray wolf knows his own affairs, and the four of them are different from Tang Feng. Tang Feng took the initiative to surrender, but they were defeated and surrendered, and they were forced to succumb to the teenager because of Anthony's forbidden methods.
If it was said that they were needed to control the trade routes because of the need for these bandits, since the opening of the war, there have been fewer and fewer caravans, and their role is also dispensable. If it weren't for the antidote that Anthony gave the four of them enough before leaving, they would have to worry that if the teenager forgot about it, they would have to try to suppress the terrible taste of the seizure again.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed through the gray wolf's mind, and a thought appeared in his mind.
The reason why Anthony set the ban was only to prevent himself and others from rebelling and disobeying the control. If the four of them were sincere in obedience, they would have voluntarily followed behind Anthony, without any other strange thoughts. What is the difference between these prohibitions and those who do not?
Once he figured this out, the gray wolf's mind became more and more active.
The martial arts realm of their four bandit leaders has all broken through to the Silver Fighter, and no matter what, they can be regarded as quite good masters. If you are willing to commit to each other, I don't know how many noble lords greet each other and treat them as guests. Even in the army, the size can be mixed with a mid-level officer.
Since he was useful, and because he was under control and completely obeyed Anthony's orders, he couldn't have abandoned the four of them without such a waste. Anyway, it is also four silver fighters, and they can all be used as an elite team.
So, does the boy have another purpose?
Ignoring himself and others for a long time, now he is suddenly called, and as soon as he comes out, he takes on a heavy responsibility and makes great contributions. Could it be that this is a battle plan tailored for the first time of the four bandits? And then accumulate military merits and be promoted, and hold important positions in the army?
Unconsciously, the gray wolf's mentality has undergone a radical shift.
is controlled by others, and it is impossible for anyone to be happy. And the strength and status of the teenager are gradually improving, which in their eyes means that their hope of getting rid of control is getting slimmer and slimmer.
But if you look at this problem from a different angle, you can get a completely different result.
Why do you have to think about getting rid of the control of the teenager?
Like Tang Feng, like these generals in the army around him, and the brilliant imperial soldiers below who don't know how much, although there is no prohibition on their bodies, they are not all happy to gather around Anthony, obey his commands, and obey his orders.
There is no doubt that they are hugging their thighs, scrambling to hug the thighs of the young general. I'm afraid it's too late, and there is no place for me on that thick thigh.
Looking at their enthusiasm momentum, is there a difference between a ban and a ban?
Thinking about it further, due to the existence of the ban, the loyalty of the four of them to Anthony does not need to be doubted at all, but can be more trusted by the teenager. In this way, the prohibition is not only not a shackle, but on the contrary, it becomes a guarantee of trust.
Anthony's promotion was like a rocket, and he was at the top of the army, and his henchmen and team had not even had time to be formed. At this time, it is really as the bearded general said, the sooner you come, the better, and the more chance you have to become the general's henchman and occupy a high position.
When a person attains the Tao of chickens and dogs ascends to heaven, he is one of those chickens and dogs. Looking at Anthony's demonic talent and monstrous luck, it is almost inevitable that he will become a legend in the future. It is my luck to be able to cling to the tail wing of such a peerless powerhouse. Others can't hope to come to God and worship Buddha, and they are still struggling with what prohibitions and can't be controlled, is it because the weather has turned cold recently, and my head has become stupid because of the cold?
From helpless restraint to voluntary follow, the change of mentality made the gray wolf's mind suddenly brighten, and he only felt that a new world had opened up in front of him, and the road ahead was infinitely bright.
Raising his head, he happened to bump into the eyes of the cunning fox on the other side.
I saw that his eyes were shining, full of eagerness and anticipation, just like a little official who heard the news in advance and knew that he was about to be vigorously promoted.
