Chapter Seventy-Seven: Quantity Makes Up for Quality

Looking at the Romans who were gradually encamped in the distance, Qi Lin also felt a trace of unwillingness in his heart, and the unhappiness that had been suppressed in his heart before also surged up again.

"I actually withdrew my troops......"

However, Qi Lin also knew that even if he didn't care about letting the group of scout cavalry rush up and knock hard, the final result would only be that the pair of scout cavalry would be wiped out, and the other party would die at most a hundred or ten people.

After all, this group of scout cavalry had no means of attack, and their only weapon was just a saber.

And the group of Romans were either javelins or bows and arrows, and they all wore armor and held almost a person-high square shield, and if they formed a shield array, it would be a hard 'beep'.

Unless Qi Lin has more soldiers, and uses a sea of people to pile them up at any cost.

"Anyway, that seems like a solution, huh? If you use the soldiers of the Imperial Era to go up and pile up, and finally send these hundred or so soldiers who are riding and chopping, it seems that it is not difficult to collect them? ”

Thinking so, Qi Lin hurriedly called out the system: "Help me check how many imperial soldiers I have now." ”

Since mastering the method of communicating with the system, Qi Lin has become more and more lazy, and he no longer goes through the system in person as before, and says something directly in his head.

And the system is also very face-saving, as soon as Qi Lin's question came out, the cold electronic synthesis sound sounded directly in his head:

"Okay, Commander, the Age of Empires classification you currently have, the types and number of soldiers are: 4,367 swordsmen, 1,525 pikemen, 3,180 archers, 994 scout cavalry, 999 peasant women, 1,200 farmers"

"I wipe ...... I have so many soldiers? Qi Lin was surprised and said, "But Uncle Farmer only has so much, is the logistics really affordable?" ”

Hearing Qi Lin's question, the system explained: "Except for the two hundred farmers who were set aside by you in advance to build and repair buildings, the rest of the people have already been arranged by you to farm, and the soldiers of the imperial system do not have a great need for food. ”

"But other resources...... Oh yes, I directly exchanged the other resources with RMB......" Thinking of this, Qi Lin felt heartache for his slimmed down pocket.

Originally, I came to this world in order to build an almost inexhaustible logistics supply base for myself.

But in addition to the yellow sand and dead wood, the only bit of green around it is the farmland that he built with the imperial system.

As a result, it's been a month since I've been here, and not only has my pocket not gained weight, but because of the establishment of the base and the construction of those defense lines, I have put a lot of RMB in it.

It's all about gold for huàn, and a little RMB is worth hundreds of grams of gold, and it's gone.

However, looking at the nearly 10,000 soldiers in his hands, although they are all cannon fodder for some scum of combat power, Qi Lin feels that these are still worth it.

As long as the town's technology level is upgraded, these cannon fodder will slowly turn into well-equipped elite soldiers.

When the time comes, if you are assisted by cavalry and slashing soldiers, it should not be a problem to dominate a mere Rome.

Of course, this is all for the future, and for now, let's quickly deal with this group of Romans blocking the door.

After the reconnaissance cavalry attacked and retreated, the other soldiers also gathered under the city wall one after another.

Looking at the mighty army in the city, Qi Lin's spirit was also extremely inspired.

After changing the map again and confirming that there were indeed no ambushes around, Qi Lin looked at the Romans who were building a camp in the distance and waved his hand directly.

Suddenly, the two gates of the main gate opened at the same time, and nearly 10,000 soldiers in the city poured out of the city...... It's still an unfinished camp.

But Qi Lin didn't feel that he had gone too far.

Because he also knows that he is really not the material to lead troops to fight, and almost all of them are cannon fodder-level troops in his hands.

After seeing the strength of the other party before, if he didn't have to pile up several times the number of the other party, Qi Lin really had no confidence that he would win.

But now, his own strength is almost ten times that of the other party, even if they are all cannon fodder, there are still 3,000 archers.

At least it can suppress the infantry to rush in front of each other, right?

"Just push it all the way, it shouldn't be a problem to crush them with a sea of people."

After directing the cavalry to go around the opponent's rear, Qi Lin decisively gave the order to attack.

Then what Qi Lin didn't expect happened again, so he went to the foot soldiers, and when he was still a few hundred meters away from the other party, he directly threw off his steps and ran wildly towards the group of Romans.

"Damn, you bunch...... Do you have a bag in your brain? And that's what started running? When you get there, you probably won't have the strength to swing the knife, right? Don't be so obvious when you give food to people in the past, hey! Cursing on his lips, Qi Lin hurriedly found the system again, "Quick...... Turn on the ...... for me."

As a result, before he could finish his words in his head, the voice of the system sounded directly: "Please don't worry, Your Excellency Commander." The soldiers of the Age of Empires system are not physically set, so even if they keep running, they will not feel tired, and even if the commander's food is reduced to zero, these soldiers who have already been created will not be affected in the slightest. ”

“……”

Hearing the system's answer, Qi Lin decisively stopped talking.

With such a bunker in their hands, there is always a feeling of wasting.

Sure enough, you should hurry up and find a commanding talent.

It's a pity that he couldn't keep Maximus at the beginning, and now I don't know where he ran away.

However, thinking of this, Qi Lin couldn't help but turn his memory to the Eastern Continent of the same period again.

Now this era seems to be the late Han Dynasty, and in a few years, it is estimated that the Yellow Turban Army will be strange anywhere, and then it will be the Three Kingdoms era with many talents.

Maybe you can find the talent you want from there.

But when he came back to his senses, Qi Lin looked ahead, "Now I'd better train well first and find a way to upgrade technology, otherwise when I get over there, with my current strength, I guess I won't even be able to bubble up." ”

At this time, after discovering the movement here, the Romans also put down the tools in their hands to build the tent, picked up their weapons and shields again, and watched the enemy soldiers rushing several times their own, and directly formed a phalanx of shield walls in the unfinished camp.

Looking at this posture, it turned out that he was going to fight directly with nearly 10,000 soldiers of the Imperial Age here.

"It seems that after the previous battle, after seeing the current appearance of my troops, the other party completely despised me and didn't take me seriously at all!" Qi Lin lamented.

Because of this contempt, even if you destroy the other party, it will not disappear.

If the base is not upgraded, Qi Lin will no longer be able to outperform the opponent in terms of individual soldier quality, so he will have to use more troops to fight a war of attrition with the opponent.

And this was the last thing he wanted to see before Qi Lin had resource points.

If you keep going like this, sooner or later your resources will run out.

After killing this wave of Romans, it's time for you to start a wave of soldiers and go somewhere else to grab resources.
