It is no exaggeration to say that Su Hao can be regarded as the greatest strategist and tactician in the history of the Rabangka continent.

This kind of praise is entirely due to the fact that Su Hao has more and richer experience and insights than in this world. Unlike the civilization process on Earth, which was secretly promoted by the Atlanteans, the civilization of the continent of Rabangca has always been in a natural stage of development. The lucky ones like Newton who were hit in the head by an apple never appeared, and the generals' conception of war remained in its primitive stage. Everyone stubbornly believes that the key to determining the outcome of a battle is not weapons, tactics, logistics and the overall strength of the country, but the number of soldiers participating in the battle.

Two months later, there were as many as six slave legions under Su Hao's command, with a total number of more than 300,000 soldiers. This is the result of sifting through successive casualties in the course of the war. It is roughly estimated that the current state has been reached, and the number of slaves killed in the war has exceeded 200,000.

Many of the original rules have changed. The "slaughter of the city" and the like are no longer happening. With enough land to reward slaves, there was no longer a need to kill civilians. Su Hao didn't have enough money to maintain this army, but the slave soldiers who had acquired the land always wanted to get more, and they also needed to protect the existing interests. This is the driving force behind their expedition everywhere, and it is also a crucial link in Su Hao's overall planning.

New laws and regulations are being promulgated, and more and more civilians and criminals are becoming soldiers in the army. Rapidly expanding fiefdoms require corresponding titles. Under these circumstances, Su Hao began to deliver a message to the king, asking for the title of "Count of the Red Dragon".

It doesn't matter if the king allows it or not. It's just for the other nobles to see. On the day the document was issued, Su Hao had already issued an order to all the administrative agencies in each legion and territory to announce his new title.

Nothing can always be kept secret. Meng Qi had bought Su Hao enough time, with a stable logistics supply base and a source of soldiers, and the rebellion in Maka City was finally made public. Shocked, the king tore up Su Hao's request for sealing documents in public, and ordered troops to be sent in anger.

The state of communication on the continent of Rabangka is too primitive. From the king's order to the delivery of the message, it took nearly three weeks. It was already more than two months before the scattered nobles led their armies to assemble in the designated area.

The dispatch of the army is not as simple as it seems. Even after receiving orders from the king, many nobles remained on the sidelines of war. Everyone wanted to preserve their strength, and the Monch caravan and the knight Bart also took the opportunity to keep in close contact with those who wavered among them. The promise was nothing more than women, money, luxuries, and a larger fiefdom. After all, there are always kings in this world. Everyone wants to climb up. The baron wanted to be a count, and the count wanted to be a duke. Since this is the case, it is better to change to a character who has a better attitude towards himself and is more in line with his own interests to act as a king. As for whether this guy is a rioter or a real nobleman? It doesn't really matter.

According to the order of King Jinka, an army of 600 to 700,000 troops should be assembled in the designated area. However, less than half of that number actually arrived. Even the nobles who arrived with their private armies were always babbling and complaining about this and that, and even asking the king for more material assistance.

Food, weapons, salaries...... Everything needs money. The daily consumption of more than 300,000 people is very huge, and although the royal family has money, it cannot withstand this bottomless investment.

To make matters worse, these armies did not arrive at the same time, but at different times. In order to concentrate his forces, the king could only order to repeatedly delay the departure. In this case, the logistical pressure has increased exponentially, and the materials prepared in advance have almost been exhausted.

Su Hao's slave army also needed provisions. In addition to the collection from the city of Maca and the occupied territories, the most important source of supplies was the plundering of the areas to be conquered.

The slave did not care about any nobles at all. They robbed all the wealth accumulated in the manor and castle, and emptied all the grain in the storehouse. Empty land was allocated in a short period of time. The peasants were almost exclusively the families of slave soldiers, as well as freed slaves who were too old to fight. They have become accustomed to acting in accordance with the decrees of the administrative officials at all levels and the Count of the Red Dragon. In order to obtain a large amount of food in a short period of time, Su Hao required all slaves to grow on the land such as Sok tubers, which are easy to survive and harvest in large quantities. Everyone understands that rice flour is better than sweet potatoes, but the price of rice flour is far higher than that of sweet potatoes. In the case of being able to determine that they are full, the farmer of course chooses to plant the former.

Slaves were found in various places who refused to obey the order to plant Sok tubers, and instead secretly sowed other economic species on the cultivated land. Without exception, these people were severely beheaded, their land was recovered, and their families were reduced to criminals.

It was with this most harsh and brutal means that Su Hao ensured the supply of materials. Strictly speaking, this method can also be applied by the aristocracy. But the aristocracy could never do what he did. Su Hao is not alone, he has hundreds of loyal "worker bees" under his command. This group is not only from Earth, but also from the indigenous people of the continent of Rabangka. The people assigned to serve as administrative officials in various places are all "worker bees" or "quasi-worker bees" who have been successfully transformed. They are the most solid foundation for domination. With these people, the decree promulgated by Su Hao can be truly implemented.

Running Maca City and the surrounding area in just a few months sounds truly amazing, but it's a reality that no one can deny.

The criterion for judging wealth and poverty in this world is whether or not they can eat enough. The commoners and slaves who formed the foundation of the kingdom made up more than 90 percent of the population. It was precisely seeing this that Su Hao decided to unify the Rabangka Realm.

He considered himself lucky that the progress of civilization here was far from reaching the level of Earth. Otherwise, human desires and needs will also multiply, and with these current means and methods, it is simply impossible to control the population. This is definitely not empty talk, just think about the domestic environment in peacetime. If you put a basket of steamed buns on the recruiting station, I'm afraid no one will want to sign up at all. The increasing material abundance has increased the demands of mankind, and it is only in a place of poverty and hunger such as Rabangkar that it is possible to quickly assemble a large armed force by allocating land.

Three months later, the first clash began between the rebels and the King's army.

The exponentially increased gravity has made the intelligent beings of the Rabangka realm, those who can barely be counted as "humans", have more powerful physical functions than earthlings. Babies here are born as enhancers, and even the weakest civilians have a physique equivalent to that of a second-order enhancer. If they were on Earth, they would undoubtedly be the masters of the worldly realm. Here, however, what they were before and still are what they are.

Three hundred thousand kings is an extremely large number. Although the nobles were not willing to lose their strength in war, they had to obey orders from the king. Raising private soldiers was common in the realm of Rabangkashi, but even when a call was received from the king, not everyone responded to it. The troops sent by the nobles accounted for only about twenty percent of the total strength of the Jinka Nation, or even less.

For Su Hao, this is very good news.

After all, he was an outsider, not an intelligent being native to the realm of Rabangka. The reason why he took the initiative to become Baron Sorant's slave was entirely because of the needs of the follow-up strategic policy. Although the aristocracy was powerful, the largest group that constituted the world was the slaves, and then the commoners. This sounds a bit bizarre, but it's true.

On the continent of Rabangka, slaves are equated with property. The laws of all countries, including the Golden Card State, tended to protect the interests of slave owners. King Jinka, for example, once declared in public that he had more than 600,000 slaves under his name. If the king is like this, the rest of the nobility can be imagined. In particular, the commoners who had a little property in each city always had one or two slaves working for them at home. Human trafficking is not a crime in Labangka, but a normal business practice. In almost every locality, there are many underground groups that raise babies from an early age and sell them to nobles or brothels according to their qualifications and appearance, and make a profit from them. Of course, these people will not target the nobles, and it is only the commoners who suffer.

In the **** of Maca City, several slave legions fought back and forth in the surrounding area, all of which made Su Hao's name go viral at an unprecedented speed. In addition to being shocked, people were also confused about Su Hao's identity and his future. He's just a slave after all. However, the facts are in front of us, a slave kills the city lord and organizes a huge army of tens of thousands. Now, he sits high on the high position that thousands of people look up to, and has become the famous "Count of the Red Dragon".

Because of this, Su Hao was recognized by all the slaves at the first time and regarded as a unique object of worship. The slaves, who had no future as cattle and horses, suddenly discovered that rebellion was their patent. Why did Lao Tzu work so hard to support those nobles? Why can an official ride on Lao Tzu's head to and pee? Lao Tzu has strength, except that he has no property and no copper plate in his pocket, where else is worse than others?

Yes, or those words of the Count of the Red Dragon sounded exciting.

There is no money, robbing the gold and silver in the safe of the nobles.

If there are no women, they go to sleep with the little wives and daughters of the nobles.

There was nothing to eat, and the nobles had everything in their kitchens.

It's all just a matter of reaching out. Why was Lao Tzu so stupid before? I don't even understand such a simple truth. will only honestly farm for the nobles, and all the harvest will be plundered, so that he can get a little meager "reward". It is I who earn everything for them, and I should be the supreme ruler of all assets.

In this case, with the large-scale propaganda of the pre-rehearsal of the good Lu, Su Hao received the response and support of the huge slave crowd. When the king's army was still assembling in the designated area, Su Hao had already completed the formation of a 500,000 slave army.

The King's army was certainly much better equipped than the slave army. The Praetorian Guards, in particular, were equipped with extremely expensive goods, from armor to cavalry guns. The species structure of the Rabangkar realm is similar to that of Earth, with a large number of other species on the outer continents in addition to the central mountain range. The wildebeest is the key to the formation of cavalry, an animal that is very different in appearance from the earth's wildebeest, but has characteristics that can be tamed by humans. They are extremely tall and muscular, with two pairs of sharp curved horns growing obliquely upwards on the top of their heads. This wildebeest has been domesticated thousands of years ago, but it has only been around for less than a hundred years on the continent of Rabangka when it was actually used as a weapon of war.

Although Su Hao had made a detailed plan for the current situation of the Rabangka continent from the beginning, he did not have enough time to build weapons. There is no industry at all in this world, and the capacity of the metal manufacturing and processing industry is extremely low. Because the style of the weapon was too primitive, Su Hao made a series of modifications, deleting the useless decorations on various weapons, making it more conducive to hand-to-hand combat. To some extent, this also increased the speed of the manufacture of new weapons. Despite their best efforts to ensure the supply of raw materials, on the eve of the completion of the formation of the Slave Legion, the number of weapons produced could only meet the needs of sixty percent.

Naturally, a considerable part of Su Hao's slave army still used the old style of weapons. But either way, they can be used to kill.

If there is another half a year, the situation will definitely be much better, and Su Hao will be more prepared. However, the facts were in front of him, and from the beginning of the build-up of the king's army, he had to deal with it.

The army of half a million slaves was divided into seven legions. Among them, Su Hao led the main army of 200,000 people to directly meet the king's army. The other six 50,000-strong legions were scattered across the Line of Actual Control (LAC) and into the King's territory.

……

Flanderson is a medium-sized city in the northern part of the country of Kinka.

As soon as the sky brightened, Tong Yanfeng was already standing on the hill, carefully watching the city in the distance in the shadows that were still shrouded in darkness.

Compared with when he was on Earth, Tong Yanfeng's face was still pure and bright, maintaining the unique vigorous energy of young people. His short black hair makes him look shrewd and capable, and his whole person looks handsome and charming, but he faintly reveals the fierceness that can only be contaminated by life and death.

The trees on the hill were almost cut down. The bare rocks and the ground beneath your feet form a vast gray-yellow color. This wanton destruction of the environment will surely attract the accusations of countless people in times of peace on earth. But now, no one dares to say a word more to Tong Yanfeng.

As the commander of the newly formed Sixth Slave Legion, he does have the terrifying power to land tens of thousands of heads at the sound of an order.

Behind him, not far from the hill, is a sparse wood. Tong Yanfeng had been camping here since the day before yesterday, and more than 50,000 slaves had made the place noisy and chaotic.

Scolding and shouting can be heard everywhere in the barracks, as well as all kinds of **** debauchery roars. The sounds came mainly from the tents on the outskirts of the camp, the recruit area.

The consequences of the massive expansion have been devastating. The new Sixth Slave Legion originally had just over 10,000 men, and the expanded Legion was filled with a large number of slaves with no combat experience. They are extremely fanatical, and under the influence of the propaganda effect, they have an unusual sense of worship for Su Hao. However, these people are simply insane. Their combat effectiveness is extremely low, and they can only rob, plunder, and slash behind elite troops. Not so much warriors, but a mob armed with swords.

These people are like a swarm of locusts, and the land they pass through has been completely destroyed. Since the departure of Maca City, the Sixth Legion has razed all the estates and noble realms along its way. Due to the strict control of the elite troops, the emancipated slaves were not suppressed, but went to Maca City in batches in the form of group calls or group escorts, and under Meng Qi's arrangement, they became ordinary people under Su Hao's rule.

The most important means of victory or defeat in the war of the cold weapon era is population. With a large number of slaves, the nobility and commoners had little to offer. It is important to deprive the productive labor force from the source, and the entire Jinka country will be defeated without a fight.

After calculation, Tong Yanfeng's Sixth Army alone has transported nearly 800,000 slaves to the rear. These huge populations will quickly obtain land and agricultural tools, and produce the food needed for the war as quickly as possible, which will be transformed into the material basis for sustaining the war.

A young man in armor emerged from the darkness and stood behind Tong Yanfeng with a respectful face.

He is Tong Yanfeng's adjutant. A few months ago, he was a lowly slave. But he was also one of the first "worker bees" to be assimilated on the continent of Labanca. There have been thousands of people like him, and they have become the most trusted henchmen around Su Hao.

Meng Qi was only the first "worker bee" to be assimilated in the world of Labangka, but he would not be the last.

There was a faint worry in the man's eyes. As an adjutant, of course, he knew that Tong Yanfeng didn't like to be interrupted by others when he was meditating alone. But there were some things he had to say.

"General, isn't it too lenient for those people?"

Men are armed slaves. They are all new recruits, and they are also the most troublesome and undisciplined people.

They were the main force of burning and plundering, and although Tong Yanfeng repeatedly ordered that all looted property must be handed over, there were still many people hiding in private. It is impossible to absolutely prohibit this kind of thing, but they have a strong fear of the captains of the "worker bees". After all, every private fight ended up with the recruit slave being killed on the spot. The "Worker Bee" showed its strength with absolute strength.

Because of this, the various slave legions were able to maintain the most basic order. But in the adjutant's opinion, it was still too confusing. When I was meditating alone, I was interrupted by others. But there were some things he had to say.
