What is the most important thing for a legion?

Some people think it's numbers, after all, there is a lot of strength in numbers, and scale sometimes brings unimaginably huge strategic advantages.

Others believe that it is weaponry, on the grounds that a group of guys with wooden sticks can hardly beat an opponent with a sword.

However, anyone who knows a little bit about military affairs knows that although there is some truth in the above two points, neither of them is a decisive factor.

The root of the real determination of the strength of a legion lies in the middle and lower rank officers who are responsible for transmitting the intentions of the supreme commander to the soldiers, and as long as they are not scattered, then the legion can recover in a very short time, no matter how great the damage it has suffered.

Soldiers, to put it bluntly, are a resource, a renewable consumable.

If the army is compared to a human being, then the soldier is the skin and muscles, the middle and lower officers are the bones and nerve conduction system, the logistics is the blood, the upper officers are the brains, and the scouts are the eyes and ears.

Generally speaking, if the skin and muscles are damaged, as long as it is not too severe, with the body's ability to repair itself, it can basically be restored to its original state.

But if there is a problem with the bones and nerve conduction system, then even if the person survives, he will become a complete cripple.

As for the most important brain, once destroyed, the entire legion is almost finished, and even if it is completely wiped out by the enemy, it is not worth making a fuss.

Although Zhang Cheng was not technically a qualified legion commander, he understood the importance of organizational structure and system, so he chose the Burning Legion, which had conquered and destroyed countless worlds, to launch a war that would engulf the entire hell and heaven.

After all, they are not only powerful, but also very experienced, and even the lowest-ranking soldiers have participated in at least ten or more large-scale battles.

Of course, the only downside is that these guys are a bit unruly, especially since the Dreadlord always likes to look things on the surface and do things behind the scenes, and the devil knows when they will band together to start a rebellion.

You must know that Zhang Cheng is not Sargeras, he has unrivaled power, even the two lieutenants of the legion, Kilgardan the Fraudster and Akmund the Polluter, cannot challenge the absolute dominance of the Dark Titan.

Fortunately, he now has another force that can be restrained, and that is Warrent.

I believe that this old guy will conscientiously monitor the small movements of the Dreaddemon Kings in private, even if it is for himself, otherwise he will be the first to die in the event of a rebellion.

......

After consuming more than 40 million souls, the demons of the Burning Legion finally completely occupied the city of Vera and began to methodically build a war machine with limited resources, while also sending a team of 10,000 people to launch a tentative attack on the surrounding area.

In just a week or so, those territories with insufficient strength have fallen, and at the same time, a large number of captives have been incorporated as servants and cannon fodder, and a new round of attacks has been launched in a steady stream.

Under the strategic guidance of the Burning Legion for many years to fight and disintegrate the enemy from within, it quickly snowballed in growth.

The Abyssal Lord and Eredar are in charge of attacking the enemy head-on, while the Nasrezm Dreadlord uses his innate camouflage abilities to infiltrate his enemies and sow chaos and suspicion.

It didn't take long to break through and capture another important city to the west, Claydis Campe.

Its fall meant that the easternmost part of Hell was completely under the control of the Legion.

Since then, this land, which has exceeded 10,000 square kilometers before, and the tens of millions of demons living on the land, have become the capital used to launch the next stage of the attack.

But before that, there is still a need to stop and make some minor repairs, especially to integrate resources, expand the number of legions, and transform more hellish demons into killing machines without the ability to think.

Standing on the top floor of the spire-like palace in Claydis Campe, Zhang Cheng stood in front of the window and watched the scene of the slaves outside in full swing to build various weapons, and asked without looking back: "What do you think are the chances of winning the next battle now?"

"It won't be more than forty percent. You see, our adversaries have sensed the threat and secretly formed a huge alliance. You'll not be dealing with stragglers, but a truly formed army of hell. Warrent was straightforward in his predictions.

"Forty percent, are those selfish demon lords so powerful?" Zhang Cheng turned around, his tone revealing a strong question.

Warrent shook his head and explained, "No, it was you who pressed too hard, which made them have a strong sense of crisis, so they temporarily gave up their grievances with each other. I promise that if you can converge a little, it won't be long before this alliance collapses from within. Also, you'd better be careful from now on, I'm sure those high-flying demon kings must have noticed the movement here. ”

"Demon King, since that great battle in ancient times, is there anyone in hell who deserves to be called a demon king?" Zhang Cheng smiled disdainfully.

"Don't despise Hell! the demons bred by this land! they are much more dangerous than you think. Warrent warned with a serious expression.

Zhang Cheng raised a finger and shook it gently: "No, you didn't understand what I wanted to say." I never said that the demons of hell were not dangerous, I meant the millennia-long peace that dulled heaven, hell and earth, forgetting that peace is always short-lived in order to prepare for the next more brutal war. What's more, this is not real peace at all, it is just a truce agreement, and it only takes a little friction and hatred to easily rekindle the flames of war. ”

"Damn, don't you want to ......," Warrent's eyes widened in horror.

"That's right! If our actions have already attracted the attention of the entire upper echelons of the Hell forces, then why don't we expand the war and bring in the angels of Heaven who claim to be kind and righteous? I believe they will not mind and take this opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the chaotic hell. I'm curious if a war breaks out between Heaven and Hell, will those so-called Demon Kings still have the energy to pay attention to us. ”

After saying this, Zhang Cheng curled the corners of his mouth and showed a sinister sneer.

The enemy of the enemy is the friend, and this saying never goes out of style.

And there is still one trump card in his hand that has not been revealed, that is, tens of thousands of dragon armies.

These little guys, who grow very fast, have already grown to the point where they are daunting, and once they join the battle, they will inevitably cause an indelible shadow on the enemy's hearts in an instant.

"Understood! I'm going to tell the Dreadlords to go to the border between Hell and Heaven and cause some trouble. Warrente stroked his chest with one hand and bowed slightly, then turned and disappeared into the dark corridor.

Less than a minute after his front foot left, the back foot succubus Renes lifted his invisibility, hugged Zhang Cheng's neck from behind, and asked in a voice full of temptation: "Great evil master, are you sure this guy is trustworthy?"
