Chapter 166: The Mingtai Tribe
Within a radius of three hundred miles to the east of the werewolf tribe, the large tribe Nitu tribe belongs to the sphere of influence of the large tribe Nitu tribe, in addition to the large tribe of the Nitu tribe, there are also five medium-sized tribes and twenty-one small tribes, including the Aaron tribe, the Oya tribe and the Gat tribe that were swept away by the Songhai City army, and the Aaron tribe is the second weakest medium-sized tribe in the Nitu tribe's sphere of influence.

The Mingtai tribe, a medium-sized tribe with a population of just over 20,000, is also a medium-sized tribe in the Nitu tribe's sphere of influence that is weaker than the Aaron tribe.
The Geya tribe, the Puwa tribe, and the Desi tribe, three small tribes with a population of only five or six thousand, have a close relationship with the Mingtai tribe, and it is said that the ancestors of the three tribes came from the Mingtai tribe, and because the pasture was not enough to support more people, they migrated out of the Mingtai tribe.
Needless to say, Shaoyang didn't know about these things, but even the werewolves only thought it was a rumor, which led to an accident when the Songhai City army attacked these four tribes.
"Damn, I actually let them escape, go back and tell the king and the military advisor about it, our whereabouts may be exposed. Yu Ban looked at the fleeing werewolf and cursed, he rarely participated in the battle, but because of his carelessness, he let the enemy run away, and he was in a terrible mood.
However, this is not to blame, who would have thought that in addition to the soldiers sent to the battlefield of the Duchy of Oz, the Mingtai tribe and the three small tribes actually united to form a wolf cavalry team of 1,000 people, and it happened to patrol the Powa tribe that was being attacked by the army of Songhai City.
What Yu Ban didn't expect was that the leader of the team was actually a seventh-level werewolf, not only him, I'm afraid that the werewolf patriarch didn't know that a seventh-level werewolf came out of the Mingtai tribe, otherwise he would definitely be transferred to the front line of the battlefield with the previous thousand wolf riders and two thousand infantry troops.
Before the battle against the Puwa tribe was over, Yu Ban found Shaoyang and Guo Jia to plead guilty.
"It's not your fault, the appearance of a level seven werewolf was unexpected. Shaoyang didn't blame Yu Ban, he didn't think about not letting any werewolf escape at first, but he didn't expect it to happen when attacking a small tribe, "Fengxiao, you see if this matter will affect our subsequent operations." ”
"We are coming to attack the orc tribe, it is impossible not to be discovered, now we must speed up the progress, at least before the other werewolf tribes react, take the Mingtai tribe and the remaining two small tribes, and then prepare for the next battle. ”
Guo Jia immediately asked Zhao Yun and other generals who were fighting to inform him of the news, and after quickly defeating the Puwa tribe, he divided his troops to attack the Desi tribe and the Goya tribe in two ways.
Both tribes were small tribes, and the armed forces were either transferred to the front line or wiped out after the Powa tribe was wiped out, and after the Songhai City army was divided into two routes, it didn't take much time and cost to contribute the two tribes.
After that, the two armies converged and went to the Mingtai tribe to launch a strong attack on the Mingtai tribe, at this time the Mingtai tribe already knew the news that the human army came to attack the werewolf tribe, and more than 20,000 werewolves had already been prepared, and all the werewolves who could go into battle participated in the battle, making the Songhai City army experience a hard battle, and the loss was several times higher than the previous attack on the Aaron tribe.
"In the battle against the Mingtai tribe and three other small tribes, we attacked and killed more than 30,000 werewolves, captured less than 2,000 werewolves, killed 231 soldiers on our side, seriously wounded 367, and slightly wounded more than 2,000. ”
The total number of dead and seriously injured people is more than 500 people, which has reached one-thirtieth of the number of the army on this expedition, and this is only against a weak medium-sized tribe, and this level of tribe, the werewolf clan has dozens of them.
"It seems that we underestimated the werewolves and overestimated ourselves. Shaoyang said with a wry smile after hearing the battle report, when they set out on the expedition, they also planned to attack other orc tribes and even the orc imperial court, and now it seems that the werewolf tribes have not fought one by one, and the army with people will be lost.
"It's all to blame that the general let go of the werewolf, otherwise the Mingtai tribe would not be prepared, resulting in the loss of our army, please forgive the king. Yu Ban was still feeling guilty about the seventh-level werewolf escaping, and after hearing about the casualties of the army, he couldn't help but come out and ask for guilt.
Shaoyang hesitated for a moment, did not excuse Yu Ban, and was reluctant to punish Yu Ban heavily, "Wen Ze has already killed the werewolf this time, so let's punish Wen Ze for half a year's salary first, and the other punishments will be recorded for the time being, so that you can make meritorious contributions to the crime, and then make a final decision after the end of this expedition." ”
How can there be no dead in the war, it's just that the previous time against the Aaron tribe was too smooth, and the army in Songhai City did not suffer many casualties, so that Shaoyang and the others felt that the losses in this battle were serious, in fact, according to the normal war situation, the losses this time were already very low.
Burton, who was present, suddenly found that when did he feel that the battle loss rate of one-thirty was a serious loss, you must know that in his military career, more than fifty percent of the battle losses have been encountered, and for the generals of the Dusk Continent, as long as the battle losses are within two percent, it is acceptable.
In addition to the battle losses of the Mingtai tribe in this battle, the harvest of the Songhai City army is also a lot, and there is no need to think about the prisoners, even Zhao Yun is a little red-eyed after the killing, and he is a moving werewolf will resist, and most of the more than 2,000 captives are from the other three small tribes.
There are a lot of cattle and sheep harvested, and what makes Shaoyang and others care more is the war horse, these four tribes seem to have a soft spot for war horses, each small tribe has more than a thousand war horses, and finally the Songhai City army gets the war horse state, so that the army will reach the level of one person and two horses.
The most exciting thing is that after the accumulation of the last battle, after this battle, a large number of soldiers have advanced in the army of Songhai City, which is the advancement of the class rather than the breakthrough of strength, the number of rangers of the Black Dragon Legion has finally exceeded 1,000, and even the cavalry of the Two Realms Pass Legion under Burton has also advanced into rangers, not to mention the cavalry of the Blue Dragon Legion.
According to preliminary statistics, there are more than two thousand rangers in the army, and the strength of each ranger has reached the second level.
The advanced type of heavy archer cavalry also finally appeared, and Zhao Yun deliberately gathered more than three hundred more than three hundred archers together and tried it out.
The ability to charge is better than that of light cavalry, and worse than that of the rangers, but it is only lost in speed.
The ability to mount and shoot has been greatly improved, not only the range and accuracy have improved a lot compared to before the advancement, but also the special ability similar to the longbow soldier rocket has appeared.
Zhao Yun roughly assessed it, thinking that as long as a second-level heavy archer opened the distance, he could be comparable to a fourth-level warrior in a single fight, you must know that fourth-level is a watershed, an ordinary fourth-level warrior can deal with three or five third-level peak warriors at the same time, and a third-level heavy archer cavalry may even defeat or even kill an ordinary fourth-level warrior.
This is just the ability to fight alone, the heavy archers are soldiers, and a large number of heavy archers form a battle formation, and their strength is definitely stronger than the same number of fourth-level warriors.
