058 Psychiatric Arms
In the center of Dehrim Village, Shu Zifeng, dressed in a noble silk robe, was listening to the various information compiled by Joseph, who was in charge of the overall management.
"My lord, after the war, the soldiers of the warrior battalion were relocated from the war zone because their families were relocated from the war zone and their land was reallocated, and their mood was relatively stable, and the morale of the soldiers in the more than 800 warrior battalion was very good, but the personnel we sent to recruit the militia received nothing.
To the north, the city of Yaroslav was besieged by tens of thousands of Muscovy troops, and the situation was so critical that both the commoners and the petty nobles and knights were not optimistic about us, and there were a large number of defections.
In addition to the more than 600 loyal Dehrim lords, we are now left with only a 1,000-strong pioneer battalion composed of surrendered prisoners of war, a warrior battalion of more than 800 people, and a formed Swedish musketeer regiment......
Those warrior battalion soldiers are willing to fight for us, but they are just military achievements that they can't get their hands on. β
"Joseph, I remember that we still have a sum of gold rubles to use, can you bring in a group of mercenaries to fight for us?"
Joseph sighed and shook his head: "My lord, the Grand Duchy of Moscow has issued a statement that as long as any mercenary dares to accept money from us and Grand Duke Yaroslav, it is the sworn enemy of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, and almost all the famous mercenaries in the Principality of Moscow are recruited by the Duchy of Moscow to participate in this counterinsurgency war between us and the Grand Duke of Yaroslav, and most of the remaining crooked melons and cracked dates are out to cheat money......"
Shu Zifeng's index and middle fingers tapped lightly on the table, and asked with a frown: "How long will it be before the Moscow army in Tver and the army in Vologda will join forces in the city of Yaroslav?" β
"Your Excellency, according to the information provided by Grand Duke Yaroslav, there are about 10 days left, and Grand Duke Yaroslav has already sent people three times to urge us to assist in defense and support, and asked your Excellency to urge the United Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania to attack the western border of the Grand Duchy of Moscow."
"Don't bother with Grand Duke Yaroslav's request for help, if his messenger comes again, just drag it out with a few perfunctory words, Yaroslav City is just an abandoned son who attracts hatred for us, Grand Duke Yaroslav will not surrender for his own future, and Grand Duke Yaroslav has looted a lot of young and strong people and food some time ago, as long as the city is not broken, it is not a problem to hold on for a year and a half."
"But...... My lord, if the army of Tver and the army of Vologda converge, the army of Muscovy besieging the city of Yaroslav would reach absolute superiority, and Grand Duke Yaroslav said that the army of Moscow was equipped with artillery, and with his armament, it would be difficult to hold out for too long. β
"Well, we really don't have much time, the training of the troops has ended, the 'bandits' in Rostov are happy in the territory we let out, and the purpose of dispersing their forces has been achieved, you go down and tell Leonidas and Bandak them, and then we will attack the main camp in Rostov-on-Don!"
Joseph looked stunned for a moment, and replied with a little worry: "My lord, there are most of the elite and noble cavalry in the main camp of Rostov, is our strength enough?"
The lessons of the Rostov avant-garde are in front of us, and it will not be easy to deceive them again this time......"
"Haha, of course I know this, but we are not the same as before, although the number of troops has become smaller, we have weapons that Muscovy does not have!"
When Joseph heard this, he did not refute any more, but was commanded to go down and gather his men.
Shu Zifeng sat there with a wry smile and said to the system elf in his mind: "The conquest system really looks up to me, gave me a thousand musketeers, but let me complete the task of completely destroying the main force of Rostov, according to the information I have obtained, there are tens of thousands of mercenaries and professional guards in the main force of Rostov, not to mention those indefinite number of noble cavalry, I can fight more than 2,000 people under my hands, and there is no cavalry by 5 times, is the conquest system forcing me to die?" β
[There will be rich benefits when there is a challenge, wasn't it your own decision to accept this task at that time?] γ
"I'm blinded by lard, 2000 system of lords, cavalry stables, arquebus arsenal!
Which of these three rewards can I refuse? Completing a task gives such a rich reward, as long as there is the slightest possibility, I am not willing to give up.
As long as I complete this difficult task, even if I try to do my best, I will make a lot of money. β
[Shu Zifeng, since you are so 'understood', what are you complaining about with me, I think you simply changed your name to Shu Maniac, you like to walk on the edge of life and death so much, and the conquest system naturally can't put an end to your way to death. γ
"Hey, can't you just give a little help? I remember that my battles during this period increased by 30 points, elf, you are discounted on the hour, and see what useful troops can be exchanged for me. β
γForehead...... So you are for this purpose...... However, the 30-point roll is too little, and you don't have to think about it to become a formed army or anything, but there are really a few useful special soldiers.
What about self-detonators? 1 point roll per person, although it is a disposable, but in this battlefield that relies on dense military formations, it is still quite useful. γ
"Self-detonating bombers? Can you elaborate on that? Shu Zifeng said with great interest.
[It's just a bunch of nimble madmen, who are strapped to their bodies with homemade black powder explosives bags made of oily skin, and covered with a robe, except that they look bloated, the enemy can't see the danger in them, and their most commendable thing is that they regard death as a destination.]
Self-bombers have a different mindset than normal people, they don't care about death, and they are born with extreme mental illness, and their favorite thing is to drag others to die with them......
Although even if the black powder is tied all over the body, the power of the explosion is very limited, but Shu Zifeng, as a veteran, you should know very well how much this kind of madman who rushes into the enemy group as a bomb will hit the hearts of the enemy soldiers!
Moreover, no matter how weak the power of black powder is, it is more than enough to break through the dense infantry formation, after you have them, you only need to send the self-detonating bombers into front of the enemy formation at the right time, of course, because they are strapped with black powder explosives bags, once they are shot by musket lead bullets, it is easy to misfire and self-detonate in advance.
How, great value for money. γ
Thanks for the rest and relaxation of the reward of 2000 starting coins!
