Chapter 8: The Loss of Victory
Looking at the changes in the sea of clouds from the ground, like the sea of waves, Lorraine was lying on the Royal Princess at this time and looked around, everywhere was soft white clouds and pure blue sky, and the golden sunlight sprinkled through the gaps to the ground to patches of bright spots. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Being able to lie here and enjoy a moment of silence is really the best rest at this time, the Royal Princess was supposed to dock in a fixed airport according to the design, but unfortunately, as the only large military airship in the world, there is absolutely no place to stay in the air force station, because those places are used by traditional air knights.
After the victory of the battle, the aftermath was handed over to Kalinin and others, and Yuri was sent out to contact Archduke Luther, although the price of the Death Merchant's help was to leave on his own after the report, but Lorraine didn't care so much.
In order to allow the Royal Princess to dock and repair smoothly, the captured Austrand soldiers suddenly fell into bad luck and had to carry out engineering work under the coercion of the mages of the Seventh Legion, and with the help of all kinds of magic and the blood and tears of the captives, the defensive castle connecting the passage was demolished into ruins in a short time, and a crooked and ugly airport and the corresponding docking tower were built.
The airport glued together with the help of magic can barely accommodate thousands of people at the same time, and the docking tower is really the first time to do it without any reference, and can only try to do it a few times, and finally be able to meet the docking of the Royal Princess, of course, it is recommended that there is no problem with repair and supply operations, if there is a serious injury such as major damage, then the presence of a repair shop is required.
Just for this, thousands of captives were exhausted to death, and the rest were hollowed out of their bodies, and under the effect of magic and spells, their physical potential was seriously overdrawn so that their vitality was consumed a lot, and they looked like they were seriously ill and weak, and they would definitely die of illness if they didn't live to get old.
These things don't need to be considered by Lorraine for the time being, after so long and encountering a lot of bullshit, he is no longer in the mood to pay attention to the lives of these enemies, and it is even more irritating to reduce the number of personnel.
As soon as she thought of this, Lorraine, who was on vacation without permission, heard the sound of carrier pigeons......
"Damn Lorraine! Get the hell out of here! The injury situation has gotten worse again! "The big Lori Ireen has unfortunately learned from Admiral Catherine these days, and directly comprehended the berserk series of skills, and all kinds of Hedong lion roars are difficult to parry, which is really unfortunate.
"Yes, yes, what's going on with the captain?"
"Not a profiteer of Flange yet! Most of those wound medicines are of inferior quality, and few of the recruited priests are qualified in terms of treatment, even if they are the lilies of the first wing of the Marine Corps, they are mostly good at defense and offense. ”
"The recruiter and the logistics officer are too short-sighted...... I can make a lot of mess just by staring at shipbuilding, and that alchemy potion should be able to be used as well, right? ”
"It's okay if you don't say it! I'm angry when I say it! The logistics officer definitely took the bribe! The label on the alchemy potion that I bought does not match the information of the potion, and the label of the high-level life recovery potion is actually the middle-level life recovery potion, the original color and taste must be visible, the problem is that the profiteers added pigments and spices with similar smells to it, and the mage who was directly tested was blinded! ”
Well, when I thought that this aspect was all in the hands of a certain merchant of death, I didn't expect that Yuri's festival really didn't recharge, which was completely unexpected by Lorraine, alas......
"I see...... I'll go down right away. ”
At this time, Lorraine's Son of Heaven is required to have a special ability to build an active recovery base station, but although this thing only requires the little goblins to collect a variety of organic raw materials and put them into it to produce recovery liquid, it can't be transported out, so the wounded can only be placed in it and slowly absorbed.
Moreover, this kind of rudimentary recovery base station is really inefficient, it can only accommodate 30 people at a time, and it basically takes three days to recover to a healthy state, and depending on the degree of injury, it takes up to 15 days to complete the treatment.
It stands to reason that Lorraine should be happy, such black technology and black magic are worthy of the skills of sages, and they can be compared to divine magic, but the problem is that all the buildings he can maintain now are at most two, that is, he can heal up to 60 people at the same time.
The problem is that after the victory in the first battle, the Marines lost a total of 45 men, all from the 2nd and 3rd Wings, but the number of wounded reached more than 500!
Most of the wounded were in the cavalry breakthrough of the second and third wings and the subsequent slashing, for which Sam and Tevin had to hand in a 2,000-word summary report, and the officers under them also asked for summary and reflection, which made the two wings jump.
Not only that, but in the subsequent task of cleaning up the battlefield, the French soldiers under their command actually went on strike because they didn't eat in time and were too hard to work for bullshit!
The angry chief of staff raised his fists with a smile on his face and educated them well, and then pulled the two captains to teach them a more 'love and justice' education, and from the screams coming from the castle room, you can hear that the education is so successful, hehe.
After thinking about this, what I hated even more was the few supplies left in the castle, because the two attacks of Lorraine's gyrocopter troops and the battle mages burned down a lot of castle facilities before the battle, including the oil depot and the empty knight camp.
The highly skilled Commander Karl, under the double pressure of the previous day's frantic maneuvering evasion and the loss of all his comrades, actually slept in the camp, and also took sedative drugs and magic magic, and was burned alive in the room without being reminded at all.
Then during the siege of the city, the bastards rotorcraft also knocked out the rocket nest, which caused a lot of trouble, as soon as the raging fire was ignited, and the defenders were not in the mood to put it out, the royal princess flew over and saw the marines blocked outside the city and the fire in the castle, and had to let the battle mage and Ireen go into battle together, and frantically used all kinds of spells to barely extinguish the fire.
When it was time to count, it was found that the grain depot, armory, main castle, stables and other buildings were all reduced to ashes, leaving only a little grain and horse material for the Seventh Legion.
But when they really calculated it, in addition to the loss of people, the use of potions, and the consumption of all kinds of ammunition, they didn't earn a little loot at all, and they still needed Archduke Luther to hurry over to receive this pile of rags, and by the way, pull a batch of ammunition, because this battle knocked out a quarter of the ship's shells, and the parts of the gyroplane also needed to order a batch just in case.
In general, this victory was lost!
