Chapter 117: Expedition (First Update)
[Ding~ found that the crisis of destruction is approaching, and the only main quest of the crisis is now released!
Description: Stop the Crusader conquest of the Greek Peninsula launched by the Church of the Lord of Radiance, and completely defeat all the Crusader forces that landed!
Reward: Give away 10,000 displaced people, and continue to come to the main city of His Excellency the Governor in a month, and forcibly lower the restrictions on upgrading the main city to level 4!
Note: This reward is a temporary change to the Total War system in the face of life and death, and it is the greatest help to His Excellency the Governor, once this kind of reward appears, it means that the situation has become serious enough to threaten the existence of His Excellency the Governor and the main city, please pay attention to it!
Mission Failure: After the fall of the main city, everything will be annihilated in the turbulence of time and space! 】
Lei Zihao looked at the big red font that appeared in his mind, with a confused expression, he was still in the rhythm of orderly development and conquest a moment ago, God knows why such a huge crisis would fall out of thin air!
Since the main city was upgraded to level 3, Lei Zihao has not been oppressed by a sense of crisis for a long time!
"Crusaders? The Church of the Lord of Radiance? I haven't offended the Pope, his old man, why did he suddenly fall in love with the barren Greek peninsula? ”
Subsequently, Lei Zihao remembered the Night Elf Empire, which had always cherished its wings, and suddenly exerted his might, completely annihilating the orc legion in the Balkans regardless of casualties!
It has only been half a year since the destruction of the orc legion, and the Church of the Radiant Lord, the spiritual leader of the human world, has led the crusaders to land on the Greek peninsula!
Lei Zihao, who has been behind the world for more than a year, knows very well how slow the pace of war is in this era!
The human overworld is not an efficient centralized system, but a scattered aristocratic feudal system, with endless civil wars, new nobles are born every year, and old nobles disappear!
Even if the authority of the Church of the Radiant Lord in the human main world is unshakable, all the noble lords are only looking forward, and it is a big project to gather a scattered army of noble lords!
This is still under the condition that all the noble lords dare not disobey the pope and obediently contribute to others!
Even if calculated at the fastest speed of the human lords, it will take at least half a year to gather troops, prepare food and grass supplies, and cross the blue sea to the Greek Peninsula!
In other words, long before the destruction of the Orc Legion, the Pope of the Church of the Lord of Radiance began to prepare for the pacification of the Greek peninsula!
According to Murphy's Law, if you think about the worst of everything, the Night Elf Empire's reckless destruction of the Orc legions in the Balkans and blocking the exit of the Greek Peninsula seems to be a distant counterpart to the crusades of the Church......
This......
"Didn't Lao Tzu just kill hundreds of thousands of Pylos people, and then engage in slavery, how do you feel like you have become a public enemy of the plane...... This is a situation that is going to kill me! ”
Lei Zihao thought depressedly. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
However, a few days after the release of the main quest of the Total War System, Lei Zihao got the news that the stronghold set up in Argos had been destroyed!
According to the account of the fleeing hussar, the soldiers who destroyed the stronghold carried a flag with a cross painted on it!
If the previous main quest hint only surprised Lei Zihao, the destruction of the Argos stronghold is equivalent to putting a knife on Lei Zihao's neck!
After getting this military information, Lei Zihao immediately got up from the gentle township that had just been created and threw himself into the preparations for a new war!
As a dictatorial tyrant in the slave system, Lei Zihao also has a hegemonic ambition that loves robbery and killing, so he naturally maintains an armament state all the time!
Whether it is the Seris Revival Army stationed in Megara City, or Lei Zihao's direct troops, after their return, they have always been in a state of full armament, the main task of the Seris Revival Army is to train with the recruits, and Lei Zihao's direct troops are to clear the remnants of the orc vassal groups and take care of tens of thousands of Pylos slaves!
Therefore, when Lei Zihao really wants to fight, it is easy to gather a large army!
However, Lei Zihao suddenly found a happy annoyance - the Pilos slave was too special!
Nowadays, there is a thousand-man reinforced heavy shield spearmen, a thousand-strong archers, a thousand-man lancers, a thousand-strong Wei Wushu elite, a thousand-strong Spartan general guard, and even a standard battalion of 500 blood-colored crusaders!
Together, the total number of troops can reach a full 5,500 people, so naturally there is no need to care about the rebellion of tens of thousands of Pylos slaves.
However, if Lei Zihao wants to pull these troops out, even if it is only to Megara City, the slaves here in Longhan City will immediately turn from cheap coolies into powder kegs that can be lit at one point!
Lei Zihao had no choice but to escort most of the Pilos slaves to the city of Megara with the army!
Even most of the Pylos slave girls were taken to Megara City, and the biggest side effect of this practice was that the labor force of collecting resources in Longhan City, which was originally in full swing, plummeted, causing the construction period to be greatly delayed!
Lei Zihao only left one or two thousand Pilos slaves to maintain the basic operation of the iron mine, and if there were more people, the militia security team in Longhan City would probably be difficult to suppress!
Under Lei Zihao's rule, when the regular field army went out to fight, the militia in the city who had undergone simple military training during the agricultural slack period would take on short-term security work, all of which would be handed over to the junior cabinet team headed by the administrative director Zhao Guangxian, the judicial supervisor Chen Xiaowen, the tax officer Wang Er, and the security instructor Antonio.
They were also the person in charge during Lei Zihao's absence in Longhan City!
Of course, although these slaves cannot provide labor for the development of Longhan City for the time being, they can be used as cannon fodder in the defense of the city!
Lei Zihao's direct troops, plus the Seris Revival Army, have exceeded 10,000 people, which is much stronger than the dilemma of only a few hundred soldiers at the beginning!
This is the reliance of Lei Zihao to resist the crusaders of the Church!
As a military fortress, the city of Megara had already been repaired a few months ago, and in the face of the surging church crusades, Lei Zihao naturally would not lead his troops out of the city to fight in the field like beating the Bronze Age city-state of Pylos!
The big cities on the avenue between Pylos City and Megala City have been burned to the ground after Lei Zihao slaughtered the city, Lei Zihao's original plan was to cut off the idea of the Pylos people to rebuild the two main cities, but unexpectedly, now it has become the source of the Crusaders having to advance......
Without the supply of supplies from the densely populated and well-supplied cities, the army naturally cannot stay in one place for too long, and the small carts in the rear push the grain and grass to send food, but the army of 100,000 cannot be supplied!
