The reaction of the church was much faster than I expected.

Moreover, the number of mercenaries of 30,000 people is also quite a lot, which is definitely the biggest threat to the rebel army.

Not the same as the rebels, not even with the Hungarian defenders. The legions of mercenaries who pay for their lives are much stronger than the standing armies of ordinary countries.

Although 30,000 people may not seem like a lot, compared to the 60,000 troops that the rebel army now has, its strength is still strong.

The mercenaries in Switzerland have excellent combat skills, and have been trained to fight and survive on the battlefield from an early age.

Therefore, compared to the soldiers of the rebel army, who were peasants not long ago, it is really not a little stronger.

Therefore, the quantitative comparison is completely unnecessary.

The legion of the rebel army is as garbage as it is doomed to defeat against the mercenary legion.

Because there is no need to fight at all, and there is no way to fight.

The people lived exclusively by fighting and fighting, and the soldiers of the rebel army had been farmers in the past.

So, how can there be contrasts.

Fortunately, the church has only made a decision and is starting the project. The mercenary group has not been able to form in a short period of time, and it has left for the side of the Principality of Hungary.

So, it's not like I don't have a chance at all.

As long as you can quickly occupy the entire territory of the Principality of Hungary, and then integrate the legions of the rebel army, and improve the combat effectiveness of the army, you may be able to confront it.

So, now time is very important for me.

If he hadn't conquered the entire Hungarian principality before the mercenary group arrived, the situation would not have been too good.

At the same time, after conquering the whole of Hungary, there will inevitably be a storm of power struggle within the rebel army. This is also a big hidden danger.

There is a strong enemy outside. There is trouble within.

In such an environment, the future of the rebel army is really very worrying.

However, it is not impossible to solve this internal matter.

As long as you can be ruthless, then there will be no turmoil.

The main thing is the mercenary corps, which is the biggest threat to the rebel army.

"Mr. Li, the intelligence information you provided is really too important. I can't imagine that the church is really willing to spend so much money to organize a mercenary group of 30,000 people. It was just beyond my expectations, and I thought they were still the kind of iron cocks that don't pull out a hair. ”

Siwicks' thanks at this time are very sincere.

Of course, as Siwicks said. The news provided by Li Anran is really very important.

If he hadn't brought the news, Sywicks wouldn't have known anything about it.

When the mercenary group suddenly appears, it will definitely catch them off guard.

Sywicks is scary to think about.

Because the results that appeared at that time were definitely not what he wanted to see.

What those men in the rebel army were, of course Siwicks knew.

Of course, if all goes well, of course, it is nothing, but if the war does not go well, then there is a high probability that the rebel army will split and collapse.

The leaders below have their own thoughts.

The reason why we can unite now is that some contradictions have been suppressed and have not erupted. It's nothing more than external pressure.

Once the pressure is gone, then the contradictions that have been suppressed will definitely erupt.

It is impossible for the inferiority and selfishness of human beings not to have such a thing.

There are already signs of this. This is just the capture of Afeburg, and there are already some people who can't wait to make a fortune and overthrow themselves at the same time.

In this regard, Sywicks really has these pig-like teammates. I felt a deep helplessness and contempt.

The news of the mercenary group must not be hidden, and I must tell everyone.

Only, after the victory of Yafiburg. There are already many people who are fluttering and arrogant.

Moreover, there are no longer a few people who are so empty-eyed.

Only a small number of people can see the current environment clearly and analyze some of the situation.

Those stupid pigs who are empty-eyed will not take it to heart when they know that the Church is going to hire Swiss mercenaries to attack them.

Because of the great army in their hands, and with the victory of Aphiburg, they already thought that they could defeat all their enemies. And the so-called enemy is nothing more than that.

Such an idea really makes Sywicks feel ridiculous.

"Don't thank me, in fact, I also hope that you will finally be able to truly control the whole territory of the Principality of Hungary. After all, it's an investment for me to reach out to you, and to help and trade, isn't it? “

Li Anran was very polite.

"I don't think you should be able to guess a little bit without me saying it."

Hearing this, Siwicks nodded: "What you said is right, in fact, I also guessed something." But you have no ill intentions, and I'm willing to deal with you. As for saying that we might have a return in the future, I think that's a normal thing. There is no help in this world for no reason, especially in such a difficult situation for us at that time. “

Siwicks is very smart, and as soon as Li Anran said this, he knew what he was referring to.

Although what both of them said vaguely and vaguely was not so clear, with the shrewdness of the two people, they actually understood the meaning inside, and there was no need to say it so clearly.

"What do you want to do next? I don't think there's much time left for you, and if the church is ready, things will change for you. “

Li Anran asked.

Siwicks responded: "What else can be done, quickly organize the army, and immediately march to Budapest." Strive to conquer the Hungarian capital before the church is ready, and then conquer the whole of Hungary as quickly as possible. After that, I will lead all the legions to the western frontier to fight the incoming mercenary legions. ”

Yes, there is only one solution to this impending crisis.

As clever as Civex was, he couldn't think of a better idea right now.

In this regard, Li Anran also feels that this approach is more correct.

Although all the Hungarian principalities were conquered. The strength of the rebels will be greatly reduced. But as long as there is a series of victories, then the soldiers of the rebel army will also develop a kind of self-confidence.

At the very least, when it comes to the mercenary legions, they will not immediately collapse in confidence and dare not dare to fight.

At the same time, there will be some instability in various parts of the Hungarian principality, after all, the rebels are considered invaders to the people here.

"I'm here to talk to you about a big deal, and it's a big investment for us. If you agree, I think it will be of great benefit to the rebels and to us. ”

After Li Anran pondered for a while, he made a decision.

Hearing Li Anran's words, Siwicks' eyes lit up.

He knows. This young man is ready to show a little real strength.

"I know you're short of supplies right now, and you don't have enough money on hand. But it doesn't matter, I can give you a batch of weapons and armor on credit, as well as 3,000 muskets, and enough food for you to eat for a month. ”

Ooh!

That's a lot of investment.

At least, that's what it looks like to Sywicks.

In fact, he didn't know at all that these things that Li Anran took out were not worth much at all on the Song Empire's side.

Genetically modified food, needless to say, its price is cheap.

The world's economy on the other side of the virtual world is on a downward trend. So buy some steel to make armor and weapons, and a lot of people are willing to do it.

Even, the price is very low.

Anyway, the process of building cold weapon armor and weapons has no technical content at all.

European-style half-body plate armor. As long as there is a mold, it can be easily made.

Only chain mail and chain mail with complex craftsmanship, as well as fish scale armor from the East, are expensive.

But in order to maximize profits, the Song Empire would not buy expensive armor at all.

Only the kind of armor that has a simple process and can be manufactured in large quantities. will become the purchase target of the Song Empire.

As for cold weapons, not to mention, their price is only the price of three kitchen knives sold in the wholesale market. After all, it was used to sell to others to fight at this time, so there must have been more iron than kitchen knives. Therefore, it is normal for the price to be more expensive.

At this time, the price of expensive weapons is quite low in the virtual world, which is almost the same time and space as in the 21st century.

Especially Zhao Hongyu, the quantity they buy is still very large, so many merchants are willing to lower some prices to do business with them.

Of course, Zhao Hongyu's most familiar collaborator, that is, Chen Zhenbang's brother-in-law, won the largest share.

The small cottage workshop under his command produces this commodity in large quantities.

Therefore, the things that Li Anran said were not worth a few dollars at all.

Of course, this is from the perspective of the Song Empire.

It's not the same if it's West Wicks.

As a native of this plane, Siwicks knows the true value of these things.

Especially in this period, money can't buy it.

So, to say that he is not agitated is false.

At this moment, Sywicks' eyes were red, and his body couldn't help but tremble.

"Is everything you say true?"

Li Anran shrugged his shoulders: "In this matter, I have no reason and necessity to deceive you, do I?" ”

Call!

Siwicks was sure that the young man was telling the truth.

"I wonder how many weapons and armor you can provide?"

"20,000 spears, 20,000 swords, 30,000 tower shields, 50,000 half-body plate armor......"

As Li Anran reported the number, Siwicks' breathing became heavier and heavier.

At the same time, in Sywicks's mind, a sentence that Li Anran had just said flashed suddenly.

That is, it seems that the other party also said that he could provide 3,000 muskets! (To be continued......)
