Chapter 211: Rapid Development
Li Yi thought about it, and was reluctant to let the child trap the wolf, so he simply promoted the 100,000 soldiers, who did not reach the intermediate level, to the intermediate level.
In the end, Li Yi spent a million faith power!
100,000 intermediate cavalry!
It seems that the momentum of this army has changed immediately!
Intermediate War Horse!
The characters are also intermediate!
In this world, even elite cavalry is difficult to achieve!
Now, it's time for equipment!
In the past two years, Li Yi has upgraded a lot of blacksmiths and armorers, but the speed at which they build equipment is too slow, so Li Yi has to use the power of faith to upgrade a large amount of equipment!
However, two years ...... But not in a short time!
Especially, in the past few months, the two million people of Qiancheng and Xuncheng have been staying in the city, and many people have nothing to do, Li Yi upgraded a large number of craftsmen and asked others to assist craftsmen in building equipment!
100,000 sets of extra mid-level weapons and mid-level armor can't be made, but 50,000 sets can still be made.
During this time, when the golden eagle transported grain, some of it had been shipped out by the way.
Next, transport the rest out, and that's it.
In addition, they originally also had some mid-level weapons and mid-level armor, and there were not many gaps left, so they could use ordinary armor and weapons to replace them first, so that these people could stay in the base area in the center of Baiyue and not fight first.
March 27.
The army of cadres began to strike first.
Two hundred top cavalry at the head, with another thousand senior cavalry.
Everyone has great archery and riding skills.
In addition, Li Yi used a long-term healing technique on them, so that their physical strength recovered extremely quickly, top archers could shoot hundreds of arrows in a row, divine horses could run two thousand miles a day, and high-level war horses could also run one thousand thousand miles a day.
Even Baiyue's top forces can't resist this powerful combat force.
One by one, the forces were defeated.
In the rear, the elite army of Daqian continued to receive prisoners, and the lineup of all men and horses was very strong at a glance, making most of the members of the Baiyue forces who were combatants pale, and there were very few resistors.
That's why Li Yi upgraded a large number of mid-level cavalry!
Unlike the common people of the big merchants, most of them don't have much combat power!
As long as the city is captured, it is easy to manage the people in the city.
Baiyue, this is a place where most of the people are combatants, if you conquer their forces, without strong force to suppress them, the other side will resist very strongly!
This is the experience that Da Qian gained in the front!
On this day, the Great Dry Lightning Operation defeated a total of six hundred Yue forces and captured a total of 300,000 people!
More than a thousand Black Wind rode without pause and quickly set off towards the next goal!
The speed is so fast, unless the Raptor is used to transmit information, otherwise, the information of Daqian's actions has not yet reached other forces, and Daqian's cavalry will arrive first!
However, Da Qian had already released a large number of golden eagles in advance to kill the birds of prey above the attacking forces, coupled with the planned route and the target behind, it was difficult to receive information in advance!
March 28.
On this day, a total of 7 Baiyue forces were defeated, and a total of 320,000 people were captured.
Li Yi also asked people to co-opt some of the fighters in these forces, expand the strength of the cadres, and then select some people to upgrade, better control all the prisoners, and strive to integrate into the cadres without resistance.
Under the command of each Baiyue big force, most of them have a lot of Baiyue small forces attached to them, and they are even directly sub-tribes of the big forces.
The troops in front of the big cadres only laid down their headquarters and tribes, and those small forces that were attached to them needed to be dealt with by the troops in the rear on their own.
At this time, the captives that the great cadres subdued in those hundred and large forces were very important.
If you succeed in directly recruiting those sub-tribes and dependent small tribesmen, it is the best.
This part of the increased population is not a small number.
In short, the population of Daqian in the depths of Baiyue has increased dramatically again.
March 29.
Daqian was in the depths of Baiyue, and the new population on that day exceeded 400,000.
Three days passed, and the speed of Daqian's cavalry slowed down, but Li Yi did not hesitate to once again use a long-term healing technique on many of his subordinates.
The soldiers of Daqian, like a drop of ink dripping into the clear water, spread rapidly in all directions throughout the depths of Baiyue.
March 30.
The new population of Daqian in the depths of Baiyue exceeded 450,000 on that day.
At the same time, the news finally came out, and many forces in the depths of Baiyue were in an uproar.
In particular, the Baiyue forces that had united and planned to deal with the great cadres were very frightened one by one.
They never expected that before they could make a move on Daqian, Daqian would attack them first.
Moreover, the pace of conquest is so fast.
The third day of the fourth month.
Before the news reached Qiancheng and Xuncheng, the Great Shang conquered the army.
"How so? How can the strength of the bandits be so strong? ”
"Running thousands of miles in a day, their war horses have all eaten the legendary treasures of heaven and earth? In the end, the thieves have obtained too many legendary heavenly treasures, or they are broken jars and broken, and they want to fight to the end......"
"In a short period of time, more than one million people have been collected again, and the number of people collected by bandits in the depths of Baiyue has exceeded two million again, and the quality of these two million people even exceeds the quality of the population in Qiancheng and Xuncheng...... Is this a separate foundation, or is the golden cicada coming out of its shell? ”
"Isn't it, Qiancheng and Xuncheng are just means for the enemy to drag down our Great Shang to conquer the army...... Therefore, when they purchased the population, they were not limited to the elderly, weak, women and children? ”
"Fooled! We big businessmen have been fooled! If it is as expected, Qiancheng and Xuncheng, I'm afraid that there is only an empty shell left, only a very small amount of high-level combat power and a large number of low-level combat power, and that very small amount of high-level combat power can leave at any time by the golden eagle, in order to drag us here, they are fortunate to develop again in the depths of Baiyue! ”
The faces of several leaders of the Great Shang Expedition Army were ugly, and they continued to analyze.
The more you think about it, the more so.
It was the size and solidity of Qiancheng and Xuncheng that "confused" them, making them think that this was the enemy's stronghold, and this was the enemy's foundation.
"Tomorrow, attack the city immediately!"
Under the Qiancheng, the leader of the Great Shang Expedition Army said in a deep voice.
The fourth day of the fourth month of April.
Qiancheng.
The army is besieging the city.
"Kill......"
Because of the fact that the Great Shang army cut off the distant rivers and continued to drain the water, more than four months have passed, and a large section of the moat around Qiancheng has dried up, and during this time, the ground in many sections of the river has become very hard, and many city walls have become battlefields.
"After all, there was a large-scale war."
On the city wall, Li Yi sighed slightly.
Beside him, there was Li Ling, and there were more than a dozen top-level mortal realm guards, and he was not afraid that any of the enemies besieging the city could hurt him.
Daqian's innate combat power has not been shot.
The enemy really has innate combat power, and he has already made a move, and he will not wait until today.
In such a large-scale war, Li Yi couldn't take care of everyone, and the size and strength of the enemy were indeed relatively strong, and a large number of soldiers in Qiancheng were injured and died.
"Li Ling, you can make a move! Kill the enemy generals! ”
After looking at it for a moment, Li Yi said in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
Li Ling responded.
The next moment, Li Ling jumped off the city wall, stepped dozens of meters, and quickly walked towards the center of the Great Shang Expeditionary Army.
At this time, Li Ling's speed was no worse than that of the divine horse.
However, his agility is far from being comparable to that of a divine horse.
On the way forward, no one could stop him, and a very small number of top mortal realm masters found him and wanted to stop him, but they were not his enemies, and they were killed one after another.
In the blink of an eye, Li Ling rushed to a few generals of the Great Shang Army, pulled his bow and arrows, and aimed at the leader of a Great Shang army, and the next moment, more than a dozen sharp arrows were fired one after another.
The innate power is integrated into the bow body, so that the top-level bow in Li Ling's hand can shoot a distance of more than three hundred and fifty meters, and the innate power is integrated into the arrow, which also makes the arrow more powerful.
The general of the Great Shang Army did not expect that someone could shoot arrows at him in the midst of the Great Shang Army, and he was still so far away, he was engrossed in watching the battle on the city wall, and when he discovered the danger, it was too late.
"Poof! Burst! Burst! ”
The guards around the general of the Great Shang Army did not have time to react, and the leader of the Great Shang Army was hit by several arrows, all of which penetrated his body, and one arrow hit his forehead.
In the crowd, Li Ling did not pause.
The moment the arrow was on the string, he predicted the result, and he had already aimed at another general of the Great Shang Army.
"Poof! Burst! Burst! ”
The next moment, more than two hundred meters away, another leader of the Great Shang Army was shot and killed.
"Not good! There are top shooters of the enemy in the army! General Chen was shot by the enemy! ”
"General Zhang is also dead!"
Soon, there was chaos within the army of the Great Shang Expedition, and the guards panicked.
A quarter of an hour later, the Great Shang army began to retreat.
Daqian took the opportunity to open the city gate and sent more than 100 top cavalry and more than 1,000 senior cavalry to pursue and kill the enemy and expand the results of the battle.
Two hours later, the army of the great merchants returned to the place where they had originally camped, and the data on the loss was quickly transmitted.
Because this battle is a large-scale battle.
In this battle, more than 30,000 people were killed and wounded by the Great Shang Army and the major forces of Baiyue, and a large part of them were the losses caused by the pursuit and killing of the Great Cadre cavalry during the retreat.
The Great Shang suffered the greatest losses, with a total of more than two dozen famous generals killed, three of whom were of high status, and most of them were shot by the enemy in the army.
A thousand steps away, among the 120,000 troops, they were actually shot by the enemy, and the generals of the big merchants were also deeply terrified, what kind of means of blocking such a block?
"General Wu, this is what you are talking about, in Qiancheng, there is not much high-end combat power of the enemy?"
Soon, a group of leaders of the Baiyue forces came, and one of the leaders of the Baiyue forces said angrily.
In this battle, their tribe dispatched a lot of men and horses, and more than 1,000 people died, which was a big loss for their tribe.
"That's right, General Wu, you big businessmen are too bad!"
"Nine hundred of us have died, and there are more than a dozen of them high-level elites!"
One by one, the leaders of the Baiyue forces said angrily.
If it weren't for the generals of the Great Merchants Army who said that this battle might be easy to fight, how could they send so many soldiers so close?
"Fighting a war is not a game, as long as there is a war, there is a risk, you are not children, you should not understand this, right? If we talk about losses, in this battle, our big business losses are even greater, the top fierce generals have lost more than a dozen, and other generals have also suffered great losses, General Chen Wu, General Zhang Jian, and General Qian Hao are all dead! ”
A general of a big merchant army said with a gloomy face.
"What? The top fierce generals lost more than a dozen? ”
"General Chen Wu, General Zhang Jian, and General Qian Hao are all dead?"
Many leaders of the Baiyue forces were shocked.
Top Warriors! Each of them is a needle-like existence in the army, and in this battle, more than a dozen Dashang died!
Also, General Chen Wu, General Zhang Jian, and General Qian Hao are all famous generals, and many of them have heard of the names of these three people, but they all fell in this battle?
In this battle, the losses of the big merchants were far greater than they expected.
For a while, many of the leaders of the Baiyue forces fell silent.
On the one hand, they were shocked by the losses of the big merchants.
On the other hand, they also realized the strength and terror of the big merchants, and the strength lost by the big merchants in this battle exceeded the combined strength of many of their forces.
Moreover, among them, the nest of the vast majority of the forces has been captured by the Great Cadres, and it is said that the population has also been collected by the Great Cadres.
They have been completely tied to the warship of the Great Shang, and they also hope that after this battle, they can get the support of the Great Shang and re-establish a base in Baiyue, and they must not fall out with the Great Shang.
After the leaders of the many Baiyue forces left, the faces of the generals of the Great Shang fell into gloom again.
In this battle, the losses of the Great Merchants were not as light as many Baiyue forces believed.
This is also a very heavy blow to the big businessmen and the army of this expedition, especially the loss of those famous generals, their importance is more than that of those top fierce generals, with so many losses, the whole war will have problems.
Also, the strength of the enemy is so strong!
Let them have to suspect that there is something wrong with the previous speculation!
Is Qiancheng and Xuncheng really the enemy's base camp?
"Perhaps, we all guessed wrong before, Qiancheng and Xuncheng are indeed the enemy's base camps, at the beginning, the bandits also wanted to keep these two cities, so they sent people to make trouble in the territory of Dashang, but we never gave up, so we had to turn to the central ...... of Baiyue."
A general of a large merchant army was silent for a moment and spoke.
"So, the enemy's military strength in Qiancheng and Xuncheng is still very strong?"
"At least Qiancheng, that's the case!"
"In this case, it will be troublesome, the enemy's strength is not weak, and there are all kinds of large-scale defense equipment, we are really losing money in attacking the city, do we have to continue to defend until they run out of food?"
One by one, the big merchant generals frowned.
"Also, there is one or several very powerful masters among the enemy, their archery skills are very strong, and most of the generals we lost were shot by that person or those people......"
"We must guard against them with all our might!"
A big merchant general said.
