Chapter 36: Historical Mysteries
Long Hui has also stepped up military training in the past few days, because of the super good treatment of soldiers implemented by Xiao Yu, the military salary is high, several times better than farming, and there are bereavement pensions for the families who died in battle, and they are also tax-free for life, so it has greatly stimulated young people to join the army.
Now, Long Hui has more than 1,000 soldiers under his command, but because many of them are new recruits and don't have much actual combat experience, Long Hui can only step up training and let them become qualified soldiers as soon as possible. As for equipment, they are not lacking, and many of the resources that Xiao Yu robbed the robbers were armor and weapons.
Seeing Xiao Yu coming, all the soldiers immediately stopped training, and under the leadership of Long Hui, they gave Xiao Yu a standard military salute. Long Hui is a professional soldier, so the words and deeds of this kind of soldier are extremely strict, and the standard military etiquette and military norms are the most basic common sense.
After these soldiers performed a standard military salute, everyone looked at Xiao Yu's eyes with extreme respect and admiration.
They all saw the supplies and slaves this morning, and the lord went out and got so many things back casually, which made them full of confidence in the lord and the future of the territory.
Xiao Yu smiled and waved his hand, letting them continue training, and then called Long Hui over.
"Uncle Long, how's the situation on Karui's side?" Xiao Yu asked. Listening to the news, Long Hui must be in full charge.
It is not very difficult to go to Karui to find out the news now. Because Kalu's territory hadn't experienced much war before, the blockade of news was not very strict, and any few people who were sent in disguised as caravans could hear the news.
At present, although the princes of various regions are divided, there are not many large-scale wars between each other.
"Young Master Qiqi, according to the news sent by the spies, Karui has gathered at least 20,000 troops, including a hoplite formation, and there are no less than five magicians and no less than thirty fighters, who are running in the battle and may attack us at any time. Because Karui wants to show off his huge strength and put pressure on us, these messages are not kept very secret, and it is easy to find out. They also claimed that this time they were going to cut off the heads of all the orcs and go back as decorations. ”
Long Hui stood straight, like a javelin, and reported to Xiao Yu seriously.
Looking at his respectful and rigorous attitude, it is obvious that he has recognized Xiao Yu's status as a lord, in the past, he only recognized Xiao Zhantian as a lord, and for Xiao Yu, he only thought that he was a young master, so he never spoke like this.
After the last battle to defend the city, as well as the last two victories that Xiao Yu has won from the bandits, the large amount of supplies he brought back, and a series of policies implemented by Xiao Yu, Long Hui completely recognized Xiao Yu.
He believes that under the leadership of Xiao Yu, the Lion King Leader may really be able to get out of the predicament and prosper.
Xiao Yu listened to Long Hui's words, nodded, a faint smile on his face, and said, "Let them come, just so you can send us some equipment." ”
Long Hui looked at Xiao Yu's indifferent expression, and couldn't help but remind: "Young Master, Kalu's army this time is not trivial, even if you have an orc army, I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist this time." This time they had hoplites, and in history, when the Terrans eliminated the Orcs, they used hoplites, hoplites, and magicians on a large scale. Orc soldiers are indeed very strong, and there is no problem for an adult orc soldier to fight against five elite human soldiers, or even more, but there is much less in orc formations and tactics. Ten orc soldiers against ten human soldiers, there is no doubt that the human soldiers will be annihilated instantly, but a hundred orc soldiers against a phalanx composed of a hundred human heavy infantry will be tied and damage each other, but if a thousand orc soldiers against a thousand human hoplites, the orc soldiers will be inferior. If the human army is combined with the breakthrough of the heavy cavalry, the powerful magic attack of the magician, the orcs will definitely have no power to fight back. They are individual heroes, but they are not strong in the team. This time, Karui's army has no shortage of hoplites and magicians, as well as fighters, and all kinds of siege equipment, and your orc troops are too small to resist. ”
Listening to Long Hui's words, Xiao Yu naturally knew that Long Hui was worried that the Lion King's troops were too small, and the total number of people was only one or two thousand, and he couldn't fight against more than 20,000 elite troops at all.
However, Xiao Yu is not worried about this at all, his killer weapon is not just a simple strong orc infantry, and the cooperation of all arms is the king.
With the troops in his hands now, plus the blade carts and catapults, he defended the city, and as long as he commanded it properly, it would be no problem to kill 20,000 soldiers.
The current orc soldiers and elven archers have greatly improved their levels, and the first batch of 200 orc soldiers and 200 elven archers who followed Xiao Yu, as long as they are not dead, have all reached level 3, and some have reached level 4.
Reaching level 3, the strength of the orc infantry is increased by at least 30%, and with the effect of rage, there is no problem for an orc soldier to kill seven or eight elite human soldiers.
After reaching level 3 on the archers' side, they all have accurate shooting skills, and they can even shoot directly into the eye against some hoplites.
Although the heavy infantry can cover the armor all over the body, there is no way to cover the eyes, so the opponent's strength is equivalent to a few percent weakening.
Moreover, Tyrande has a strong strike aura, and the range and attack strength of the archer are further increased.
Add to that the new musketeers, Terran infantry, blade carts, catapults, these are all unexpected by Karu, and can all play a role in surprise, and if they come, let them all be buried here.
Xiao Yu is very confident in his own troops and his own command. However, for what Long Hui said just now, Xiao Yu was suddenly very interested.
However, he was not interested in how strong Karui's army was, but in the history of the time, could it be that there was really a great war between humans and orcs in this world?
"Uncle Long, in this history, is there really a powerful orc empire and an elven kingdom? Did the human soldiers really defeat the forces of the Orc Empire? Xiao Yu took this opportunity to ask a good question, so as to solve the question of what kind of place this world is.
Long Hui couldn't help but pout when he heard Xiao Yu ask, and said, "Young Master, this knowledge is all in the books, you don't usually like to read, and you naturally don't understand these histories." The orcs also had a powerful empire back then, under the leadership of their orc god Thrall, they were extremely prosperous, but then for some reason, their god disappeared, so the orc empire began to decline, and the elves were similar, and the elves were also very large at the beginning, and they were present in every mountain range, but then their tree of life was destroyed and collapsed. ”
Hearing Long Hui say this, Xiao Yu secretly cursed in his heart: "Damn, there is really Sal, Tyrande is the god of the elven race, and Sal is the god of the beast race, so if you say this, is this world the Azeroth continent back then?" What special changes have happened to make it what it is today? ”
Xiao Yu suddenly felt a headache, this seems to be a huge historical problem, if you want to solve it, it seems that it will take a lot of work.
"I'll have to read a book when I have time." Xiao Yu pondered.
"Okay, Uncle Long, you train them, I will deal with the matter of city defense, and when the time comes, it will definitely make this kid Karui suffer another big loss. Don't forget, I'm the god of the beasts, the gods, and the gods of the dwarves, so how can I not even be able to deal with a Karui? ”
Xiao Yu grinned, and once again brought out his set of god-like theories to comfort Long Hui.
Long Hui listened to Xiao Yu's words, naturally he didn't believe a word, if the god of the beast clan chose someone like Xiao Yu as the king of this era, he would definitely be blind.
But inexplicably, looking at Xiao Yu so confident, he seemed to feel that this battle could really be won. Wasn't that the same way last time? Xiao Yu defeated Karui's 5,000 army just by bringing those orc soldiers, and this time maybe he can really create another miracle.
If Kalu's 20,000 troops are defeated this time, Karui will no longer have the strength to attack the Lion King's Territory, in that case, the Lion King's Territory will rise completely, and it will no longer be as weak as before, and it will be able to develop step by step in the future.
The key to everything is to resist Kalu's big attack.
