Chapter 217: Reorganizing the Army

Zuo Siliang led another hundred-man Qinglian cavalry and hundreds of other miscellaneous cavalry towards Evil Dragon Town, he believed that Ling Yun was not in Evil Dragon Town now, but in the Evil Dragon Mining Area.

The situation in Longteng City is not optimistic, the other party's siege of the city last night did cause them a lot of trouble, and the end of the first battle ended with the loss of nearly 10,000 soldiers, and the cavalry, including the black armor cavalry, lost about one-third.

Of course, the losses of the coalition forces in Yi Zorn's hands are even more terrifying, and even if they continue to attack the city in the current situation, they may even be completely defeated in a battle, which is never a way for Yi Zorn's coalition forces to continue like this.

However, according to Ling Yun's knowledge, Yi Zorn, Hun Hou, and other barons have all begun to increase their troops here, and it is a little difficult for Ling Yun to increase the number of troops.

First of all, the Scourge Queen's speed of creating combat life is relatively slow, and it cannot be compared to the opponent.

And there are indeed many big families and forces in Longteng City, they have at least 10,000 private soldiers, guards, etc., but after all, Ling Yun has not been in control of Longteng City for a long time, and these big families and forces have not been able to stand on the same line with Ling Yun.

It's already good to be able to join forces with Yi Zoen without eating inside and out, but it's a bit difficult to bring them back to the emergency, and even if they are really willing to join the army to help the Yuntu army, everyone may not be completely at ease.

Although there are many defenders in the Gu Feng Collar and Zang Heng Collar, they have more than enough to defend one side, if they come to support Longteng City at this moment, it will be of little use, and secondly, the Gu Feng Collar and Zang Heng Ling are not well defended, and they may be directly swallowed up by other barons in the Orr Territory, or even the masters in the Holy Alliance.

This is more than worth the loss.

Perhaps, there is only one way to help Lingyun solve this crisis.

"Shanhaizi, find Yan Heng and Zuo Sicheng. Ling Yun turned his head to Shan Haizi and said.

Shan Haizi nodded, and then withdrew from this place, and soon, Shan Haizi led everyone to Lingyun's study house.

Ling Yun looked at Zuo Sicheng and said, "Zuo Sicheng, when will Yi Zoen and Hun Hou's reinforcements arrive?" After all, Zuo Sicheng is a strong subordinate, so he has a certain understanding of the situation of Yi Zon's coalition army.

"You know?" said Zuo Sicheng in surprise.

The fact that Yi Zoen and the others secretly transferred troops to reinforcements was extremely hidden, even the ordinary soldier commanders and many little barons didn't know, Ling Yun already knew about it.

Ling Yun nodded, a cold and calm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Well, let me tell you, tomorrow they will have the first reinforcements coming, and in the next three days there will be about 70,000 reinforcements. Zuo Sicheng said directly.

After seeing the power in Ling Yun's hands, Zuo Sicheng understood that Ling Yun was not at all like they thought at the beginning, as long as he took Dragon Teng City and then divided his troops to Siwei Town, as well as Zang Heng Collar and Gu Feng Collar, Ling Yun's power would soon be completely eliminated, and then Ling Yun would no longer have the power to turn over.

This was their judgment in the past, but after knowing that Ling Yun had a natural disaster queen, Zuo Sicheng already understood that it was impossible for Ling Yun to be defeated, so all he was thinking about now was how to help Hun Hou and his younger brother get out, as for Yi Zorn's life and death, he didn't care about it for a long time.

What's more, he had already surrendered to Ling Yun's men.

"70,000 reinforcements is indeed a * annoyance. Ling Yun fell into deep thought, looked at Yan Heng after a moment, and said, "How many soldiers are there in our Evil Dragon Mining Area, plus Evil Dragon Town?"

Yan Heng is only the mine manager and guard commander of the Evil Dragon Mining Area, but now the lords of Evil Dragon Town, Golden Needle, are all in Longteng Town, so this place has been handed over to Yan Heng to assist in the management.

"Lord, there are about three thousand guards in the Evil Dragon Mining Area, and there are still two thousand defenders in Evil Dragon Town, adding up to about five thousand. Yan Heng said the specific situation.

Ling Yun fell into deep thought, in the battle last night, there were only about 20,000 soldiers left in Longteng City, and there were only less than 40,000 soldiers left in Yi Zoen's hands, and 20,000 against 40,000 in the city defense battle, although it was in a weak position, there should be no problem, but now the most troublesome thing is 70,000 reinforcements.

If Ling Yun guessed correctly, these 70,000 reinforcements were the powerful army in the hands of the barons and lords of all sides, and the combat strength was extremely strong, and the number was amazing.

How will Ling Yun resist this army of 70,000?

With only five thousand soldiers in their hands plus hundreds of black-armored cavalry?

This is clearly not enough.

Even if she could survive for five days, the Queen of the Scourges had created thirty Spirit Yuan cavalry, which was still far from enough.

What to do?

"Yan Heng, you go and order, in the mining area, all ordinary people who join the army can get ten spirit stones, and those who have military merit will be rewarded with a knight. Ling Yun opened his mouth and said, at this time, he also had to make some changes, and then rely on various ways to increase his power and the chances of winning the war.

There are thousands of people working in the Evil Dragon Mining Area, because they are in and out of the mine all the year round, and they are constantly carrying ore out, so each of them is in good shape, even if there is no systematic cultivation, but at least the combat strength is equivalent to the strength of the middle and late stages of the realm of the day after tomorrow.

Therefore, if these people can join the army, they are also a big force.

Ten lower-grade spirit stones are equivalent to one thousand gold coins, one hundred thousand silver coins, this is already a considerable wealth, after all, an ordinary people's family, a month's regular consumption is only about three thousand copper coins, which is equivalent to thirty silver coins.

"Yes, my lord, I'll go. Yan Heng hurriedly said, in fact, he had thought of this method before, and after Ling Yun said it, Yan Heng naturally hurriedly carried it out.

"Wait, in addition, tell all the slaves in the mining area that those who join the army can be exempted from slave status, and get a low-grade spirit stone as a reward, and the way of recording military merits is the same as that of ordinary soldiers, as for those captains and captains who lead the entire group into the army elders, they can be directly named captains, centurions!"

There is no other way, and now it may be up to these slaves to help them win the war.

Moreover, a large part of these slaves were once soldiers of all sides, who were captured because of the defeat and then bought and sold here to become mining slaves.

As long as they are given weapons and armor, they are a division of tigers and wolves, even stronger than the army composed of ordinary people.

After the discovery of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Stone in the mining area some time ago, Zang Heng bought a batch of slaves from all over the world in a short period of time in order to hide the news, so now there are nearly 35,000 slaves in the mining area.

Yan Heng told the 40,000-person captains of all parties about the orders issued by Ling Yun, and then the 40,000-strong captains told the squadron leaders under his subordinates, and then the squad leaders and group leaders went down.
