Chapter 227: Sword and Shield Soldiers
Chapter 227: Sword and Shield Soldier (Page 1/1)
Everyone in the big tent knew very well in their hearts that in this war, the soldiers of the subject countries were the greatest heroes.
Although Richard had previously praised the First Legion of the Fallen Spirits under his command and publicized the number of kills obtained by the First Legion of the Fallen Spirits, it was clear to everyone.
The First Legion of the Fallen is a pure archer legion, which is a very rare type of legion.
In the world of Labral, most of the single-class legions are cavalry!
After all, let the infantry and cavalry form legions, and the infantry will not be able to keep up with the speed of the cavalry, which will only hinder the cavalry.
Rather than this, it is better to let the other infantry and cavalry legions cooperate in battle.
Cavalry legions, whether heavy cavalry or light cavalry, have a huge advantage over infantry legions, that is, they move very fast.
The two-legged ones will definitely not be able to catch up with the four-legged ones, and even if the cavalrymen are wearing extremely heavy iron armor, they will not be able to catch up.
One of the most powerful things about the cavalry is that they can fight when they want to, and they can retreat directly if they don't want to fight.
But this is not the case with archer-type legions, which are purely infantry archers, whose movement speed is very slow, and it is very likely that they will be fought close to each other by melee soldiers.
In the province of Blago, this concern has become a little less, but it still exists, especially in today's battle, the battle scene chosen by both sides is enough to set up tens of thousands of troops, this is a relatively flat terrain.
In such terrain, the archer legion is very dangerous, once pushed to the front by the barbarian soldiers, the archers who are good at long-range attacks, their defenses are very weak, and it is absolutely impossible to be the opponent of professional melee soldiers.
At that time, the First Legion of the Fallen Spirits will inevitably suffer huge losses, and this is something that no one needs to say.
Half of the reason why the First Legion of the Fallen Soul was able to harvest the lives of so many barbarian soldiers so smoothly this time was that the soldiers of the subject country fought bravely to kill the enemy and blocked all the barbarian soldiers in front of them.
It is precisely because of this that the soldiers of the First Legion of the Fallen Souls can shoot the arrows in their hands at the barbarian soldiers again and again, without worrying about their own lives.
This is also the reason why the First Legion of the Fallen Spirits only suffered 300 casualties, and all of them were killed and wounded in the fire, and almost no people died because the Blago barbarian soldiers came close.
I have to say that the soldiers of the subject country are really very good soldiers, at least in this war, Saga also recognized the achievements created by the soldiers of the subject country, and this strength is completely enough for the level of the regular army of the Jade Empire.
In this battle, the soldiers of the subject countries were the ones who paid the most casualties, and they were the most elite soldiers.
"Valls!"
Richarder walked down, and Saga looked at Vals.
Compared with Richard, an outsider, Valls is a vassal of the Emerald Empire, and in a sense he is his own person, and Saga still values Valls more.
"Yes, Sagar!" Vals was still very respectful.
"In this battle, according to your orders, many subject countries of Jade Nanshan sent a total of 5,000 sword and shield soldiers, of which 3,000 sword and shield soldiers followed General Richard of the Fallen Spirit Principality, and 2,000 sword and shield soldiers were personally led by their subordinates to fight. ”
"The results of the soldiers are gratifying, but the casualties are also very large!"
"The sword and shield soldiers led by General Richard, according to the statistics after the fact, were about two thousand to three thousand, and the number of sword and shield soldiers led by his subordinates was probably the same number. ”
"The records created by the soldiers can be said to be very brilliant, and there has never been such a brilliant record in the past history. Valls said very passionately, "The soldiers are honored from the bottom of their hearts to fight for the great Emerald Empire. ”
"Yes, Vals, you have a very pertinent assessment of the soldiers, go on. Saga said with a smile.
"All victories are based on blood, and the soldiers of the subject countries have paid a lot of casualties. ”
"In particular, the three thousand soldiers led by General Richarder have suffered more than eight hundred casualties, almost one-third of the total strength!" Valls said with a heavy face, "As for the army I personally led, there were about two hundred casualties, and the total number of casualties reached a thousand, and one-fifth of the army was gone. ”
"With such huge casualties, it will definitely have a big impact on the next battle. ”
"After the battle, the issue of the attrition of the legion must be taken seriously, especially the problem of the combat attrition of the elite legion," Sagar took over and asked, "Vals, do you have any thoughts on the question of new soldiers?"
"Now the only way is to tear down the east wall, make up the west wall, and use the soldiers of the auxiliary legion to fill the gap in the soldiers of the elite legion. ”
"Fighting abroad, there is no excellent soldier supplement, and now it can only be like this, is the quality of the auxiliary legionnaires enough?"
"Don't worry, Sagar, there is a group of people in the auxiliary legion who have received some degree of military training. ”
"Moreover, as long as the new soldiers are scattered and joined into the small hundreds, under the leadership of the original veterans, the new soldiers will soon be able to adapt to the new legion and new identity. ”
"It shouldn't have any impact on the level of combat power. Valsway.
"This method should have no effect, and the empire generally uses this method to let veterans train new soldiers. ”
"This method is exactly what my subordinates learned in military textbooks when they were studying in the Emerald Capital, and the wisdom of Emerald is always amazing. Valsway.
"I see. Saga nodded knowingly, and then looked at Vals with a more friendly look.
A prince of a vassal who has been to the Emerald Capital is no wonder that he has such a huge affection for the Emerald Capital, or a huge worship.
"Go on. ”
Valls began to tell him again about the circumstances of the battle, and the affairs of the legion brought to him by the specific commanders of the sword and shield soldiers.
One by one, the situation was reported to Zachar, and everyone in the big tent listened quietly to the battle reports.
The lights flickered slightly, and the night sky became darker.
