Chapter 210: Return, Follow-up
In the end, with a heavy heart, Shaoyang and they also embarked on the way home, because under the requirement of winning and not being defeated, they walked with the army of the Northern Chu Kingdom, and the speed was naturally much slower than when they came. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
At the beginning of the war, he brought 350,000 troops to the battlefield without defeat, and then added 150,000 soldiers one after another, and the Northern Chu Kingdom put a total of 500,000 troops on the battlefield of the Principality of Oz.
Now there are less than 200,000 troops left in the country, one-third of whom are disabled and cannot continue their military careers, and the rest are all wounded. This is still the result of an excellent commander who has won and is undefeated, and the other soldiers have been turned into ashes and brought back by their colleagues, and even more of them cannot even be recovered.
The only thing to be thankful for is that after the baptism of war, this army is far from the appearance at the beginning of the war, and has completely reached the level of the elite army, according to the estimate of winning and undefeated, even if there are only 100,000 people left after the reorganization, the combat power of this army is absolutely the first in Northern Chu, enough to confront the 500,000 army head-on.
Of course, this is the premise that he doesn't know the true strength of the Songhai City army, in his opinion, the strength of the Songhai City army is strong, that is, like the Praetorian Guard Legion or his personal guard, the few elites will not be the opponent of his own army in a 100,000-level war.
People think like this, Shaoyang is always bad at boasting that his army can become elite as long as there are people and equipment, and the name of the First Army is indisputable.
After entering the territory of the Northern Chu Kingdom, Shaoyang had to part ways with the team.
Because of Win Jiu'er, although the relationship between the two is okay, it is not too close, and there is nothing to worry about when they are separated.
Ying Feng had left the Green Land as early as now, and Shao Yan had been following the team, and he had been entangled for several days before deciding to go to White Emperor City and then to Songhai City.
"Little guy, grandpa, I will go to Songhai City soon, don't think too much about me. Shaoyang wanted to tell him, but it was impossible to think about it, but he still didn't say it.
Maybe it was because Shaoyan set off his emotions, and he actually said a few more words before Shaoyang and them left.
"After the army is settled, if some of those injured brothers are willing to go to Songhai City, I will arrange for someone to organize their whole family to move, but you will have to reimburse the expenses, and our Southern Legion will not be able to come up with additional funds. ”
"When they arrive in Songhai City, you must settle it for me, or I will settle accounts with you. Besides, you've been away from White Emperor City for more than two years, right? Next year, you'd better go back to White Emperor City once. After winning and not being defeated, he wanted to talk a little and stopped, but he just let Shaoyang remember that he would use the white falcon to urge him when he turned back.
In the end, it was actually divided into three roads, Shaoyang ten people went all the way, the army went to the southern army station, and its own generals were responsible, so there was no need to win and be undefeated and do it himself, and he took a few people back to White Emperor City with Shaoyan.
When Shaoyang and the others returned to Songhai City, they had been out for more than a month, and with Zhang Jiao here, the development of government affairs in Songhai City was carried out in an orderly manner.
Due to the development of Songhai City and other four cities, it has attracted many displaced people from other parts of the Northern Wilderness Territory, and the population has increased a lot more than in the previous two years, and there are enough soldiers.
The whole cavalry, the white dragon and the black dragon, totaled 10,000 cavalry. The cavalry mixed with the Blue Dragon Legion, with 2,000 cavalry and 3,000 infantry troops. The whole infantry guards and garrison two corps, with a total combat strength of 4,000.
There is also a Tuntian Legion, which was expanded to 10,000 under the instruction of Shaoyang, of which the original 5,000 are still fully equipped, and although the additional 5,000 people have reached the first level of strength after training, they are not equipped with any combat equipment, and can only be used for Tuntian and other legions to reduce and replenish the personnel, replacing the original recruit corps that only existed when the legion was replenished.
The total strength of Songhai City reached 28,000 men, including 12,000 cavalry, 11,000 infantry, and 5,000 reserves.
It is said that Songhai City is thriving, but the werewolf tribe is gloomy, and when the orc army withdrew, the messenger sent by the werewolf tribe to deliver the news that the tribe was attacked by the Songhai City army found the patriarch Gegil.
After learning the news, Gegil vomited a mouthful of blood on the spot, and knew from the messenger that it was attacked, and the specific losses were not clear, and when he returned to the Golden Horde, the losses of the entire werewolf tribe were also counted, and Gegil vomited blood again, and then fainted.
The destruction of the two medium-sized tribes and their affiliated small tribes, plus the losses of the other tribes, totaled more than 200,000, and the losses on the battlefield of the Principality of Oz, the losses of the werewolf tribe were close to 500,000, and one-sixth of the population, most of whom were still young and strong.
The population explosion makes the orcs need to reduce the population through war, but it is the rat races that need to be reduced, although there are many werewolf races, but there is no need to reduce one-sixth, they are still the main combat power of the tribe, no wonder Gegil vomits blood and faints.
It's just that the 200,000 or so of the Principality of Green Fields is really nothing, even if two medium-sized tribes are destroyed, although there has never been one, Gegil can still accept it, but the Golden Horde tribe's loss of 70,000 or 80,000 young people is what makes it feel the most painful.
In this way, the strength of the Golden Horde tribe has been greatly reduced, it was originally enough to suppress the three large tribes, but now as long as the two large tribes really join forces, it is enough to threaten the Golden Horde tribe, and its control over the werewolf tribe will definitely be weakened.
No, this was soon manifested, when Webster, the prince of the lion tribe, wanted to requisition the werewolf war horse, the three large tribes expressed dissatisfaction with the amount of tasks arranged by Gegil, although they did not directly oppose it, but used various reasons to shirk it, and were unwilling to undertake it in full.
The last quid pro quo proposed by Shaoyang was that the orcs needed to hand over 10,000 war horses to Songhai City.
If it's just these, the orcs may directly cheat, no matter how bad they are, they will use various reasons to delay time, but in addition to the 10,000 war horses, Songhai City will continue to use grain to buy war horses from the orcs, of course, the price is very low, and there are many restrictions.
But this is a trade agreement agreed by the various forces of the coalition, and it is the only place on the surface where humans can send food to the orc tribe to trade without violating the human convention, which is the permission that Ying Feng has been fighting for Shaoyang for a long time and paying some price in private.
After this war, the orcs did not want to get into a dispute easily, and it was tempting to be able to obtain food through trade, even if it was not much, to help survive the difficult winter, so even after the offer to trade iron tools and more food quotas were rejected, they still agreed.
The werewolf tribe is the closest to Songhai City, and only by mobilizing war horses from here can the compensation be reached as soon as possible, and then the next step of the transaction will be carried out, and the lion prince Webster will follow the werewolf army back to the werewolf tribe.
They also want to make a deal before the cold winter arrives, otherwise it will be even more difficult to transport the horses, and there are only more than three months left before the New Year, and if they can't complete the deal before the year, they may waste this year's quota.
