Chapter 18 Preparing for the Attack (Five Watches, Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation!) )

"How many people are there in the city?" Song Yu asked Long.

Song Yu didn't expect that a victory in a big battle would attract people from other places to come over at first.

But then I thought about it, the Neo-West Asians in other places were still being oppressed by the army of the East China Sea, and knowing that there was an army capable of protecting themselves, they naturally had to think of ways to come over.

Long Yi is now equivalent to the chief manager of Song Yu's side, and as a system soldier, Song Yu is also very relieved of him. Song Yu only grasped a general direction of the affairs in the city, and handed over the rest to Long Yi to deal with.

"Counting the number of our army, the number of the people in the city is seven thousand five hundred. That is, in ten days, a total of 3,500 people were added. However, in the first five days there were more people, especially on the fourth day, when 800 people came into the city at once. On the sixth day, only 400 people came. Yesterday, there were less than a hundred people coming! Ryuichi reported.

"Why is that?" Song Yu said with a little surprise.

Niu Yi came back from reconnaissance and said that in the cities near Dalang Koning City, the army of the East China Sea Kingdom had begun martial law, and few people could escape from the city. And almost all the people around us who can come over have already come. Long Yi said.

Song Yu was a little disappointed, originally thought that there were 10,000 people in the city, and this task was very simple, just wait for these people to come over by themselves.

I didn't expect that there were only 7,500 people, and no one came.

In addition to the reason that Long Yi said, I am afraid there is another reason, the soldiers of the East China Sea Kingdom are too poor, and they burn, kill, and plunder in New West Asia, especially in the east and south, which are the places where the East China Sea Kingdom attacked at the beginning, and the people were killed and injured too much.

Within a hundred miles of Dalang Koning City, there are four more cities.

Three of them are smaller than Darang Koning City, and the other one is about the same size as Dalang Koning City.

"Go and scout all the four cities within a hundred miles of the neighborhood, and then come back and report to me." Song Yu thought for a while and said, since there are no more people in the countryside, then he can only find a way to snatch the people from the city to complete the task.

"How's the training of our soldiers?" Song Yu asked by the way.

After experiencing the growth of blood, the psychological quality of these soldiers has been greatly improved, but the improvement of combat effectiveness is very limited.

The system soldiers were all elite soldiers in World War I, and their combat literacy was very high, so Song Yu asked the system soldiers to train the Xinsi soldiers of the two battalions of Qin Shou.

"The training was very effective, and most of the soldiers were able to understand some of the basic combat essentials. But for them to truly become a warrior, even at the simplest level, it will take three months! Long Yi said.

Trimester.

Song Yu was very willing to let these soldiers train for three months, but Donghai Kingdom might not necessarily give him time.

"Don't train these soldiers as you ask. Just train them to fight in line formations, shoot guns, and have some basic combat skills. Let's train systematically when you have time later. Song Yu commanded.

Many of the soldiers of the East China Sea Kingdom did not even have guns, as long as these New West Asian soldiers would fight in line. Even if it was a soldier who collided head-on with the East China Sea Kingdom, as long as the soldiers of Qin Shou's two battalions kept firing in three rotations, with the strength of the Enfield rifle, it was enough to face several times the enemy.

"Yes." Long Yi would not question Song Yu's order.

After arranging it, Song Yu went to the traitor base, a lot of advanced weapons, Song Yu wanted to buy them very much, but he still held back.

The most important thing now is to equip the soldiers of the two battalions of Qin Shou with at least Enfield rifles.

Song Yu looked at the funds, and the total was more than 1,156,000.

Song Yu directly purchased 700 Enfield rifles and spent 1.05 million dollars.

More than 106,000 remaining.

One fund can buy 20 rounds of ammunition for Enfield rifles, and Song Yu spent 100,000 yuan to buy 2 million rounds of ammunition.

All of a sudden, there were only more than 6,000 funds left, and Song Yu bought all the grenades.

Buying so many bullets, Song Yu also considered it.

A soldier who wants to grow quickly in shooting is fed with bullets.

Qin Shou's battalion has many veterans, and the battles he has experienced recently are the heaviest tasks, and the soldiers have grown a lot.

Song Yu planned to arm Qin Shou's battalion first, and the seven hundred rifles he purchased would first arm all the Qin Shou's battalion, and then equip Niu Shoupeng's side for training.

Six hundred people, Song Yu can let each of them use up a hundred rounds of ammunition for training every day.

They have to grow up quickly.

Because Song Yu decided to attack the surrounding cities.

The next day, Song Yu called Niu Shoupeng and Qin Shou over to make arrangements, but after talking about his thoughts, he obviously saw that Niu Shoupeng was a little unhappy.

Song Yu could only comfort himself with kind words, "I believe you have also guessed, I can buy these rifles and even some advanced weapons." But these rifles cost thirty gold dollars each, which is very expensive. I gave them everything of value, and I was able to buy 700 rifles. In a few days, I'm going to attack other cities. Qin Shou has more veterans in this battalion, and I must concentrate all my resources on him in order to make this battalion exert its maximum combat effectiveness. ”

"Of the seven hundred rifles this time, six hundred are for Qin Shou. Only a hundred will be left for you. But don't worry, only the money is in place, I bought it for you at once, and a hundred rifles will be used by your soldiers for training first. Training bullets, I will also give you as many as Qin Shou. You train your soldiers well now, and you will definitely have a chance to fight! ”

Niu Shoupeng was just a little resentful, after all, he also had a share of the money he handed over.

However, he also knew Song Yu's considerations, so he still nodded, even if there were only a hundred rifles, he must train his battalion well.

Another ten days passed in a hurry, and Niu Yi and they came back with all the information of the surrounding four cities.

"About a division of troops was gathered in Lingcheng. Three other small towns, one of which was garrisoned by only one battalion. The two cities closer to us were garrisoned by one regiment. But they were all crippled regiments, and one of them was only a man in his early thousands. "Niu Yi detected the situation very carefully.

Lingcheng is a city about the same size as Dalang Koning City, and it is not easy for a division of troops to capture.

The other three are all well solved.

I only hope that these three small cities will have more than 2,000 people.

In the last ten days, five hundred more people came. Now there are eight thousand people in the whole city.

There is a stable order in the city, and it has returned to a bit of its former liveliness.

Song Yu called Qin Shou and Niu Shoupeng over.

"Both of them looked very good, and they were happy to see that their soldiers were growing rapidly."

After thinking about it carefully, Song Yu decided to attack only three small cities, and Lingcheng did not move him for the time being.
