258 Preparing for war

These days, in addition to understanding the composition of the Wave Tribe and the Sea Clan, Duke also began to unite with Allen, Cassel and several other generals to begin to deploy the next Sea Clan War.

According to the information obtained from Fasqi, the number of the entire Wild Shark tribe is about three or four hundred thousand, and the number of pure troops is thirty thousand. However, because of the vastness of the ocean territory, these fish-man warriors are distributed on dozens of islands, and the limit of the forces that can really gather to attack will not exceed 10,000.

Because with the defeat of the Wild Shark Tribe by the Wave Tribe, it has also aroused the vigilance of the sea giants, and now the two sides are in a state of confrontation with large armies. And in addition to the sea giants, there are countless alien beasts in the ocean, they must leave some people to defend their nests, the sea tribe also has its own production and production industry, and there is agriculture on the island.

After all, they have evolved into advanced intelligent beings, and with their own civilization, they cannot still be in the stage of eating raw fish and drinking blood.

However, even if it is 10,000 Sea Clans, the pressure on Storm Fort will be extremely huge, and now the entire Storm Fort even the logistics army and the recruit corps are counted, and the combat strength of only 8,200 people is counted. In the same way, Duke couldn't put everyone on the shoreline, knowing that the time bomb in Monster Valley was still there, and no one knew when it would explode.

Similarly, the Storm Castle and the Hydro Factory are also divided, plus the newly built Storm New City prevents Alpine City and the Prince of Andorra from suddenly causing trouble, and the Dwarven City also needs some troops to stay behind, which is also their lair.

Counting the logistics regiment and the recruit regiment, the two corps with insufficient combat effectiveness, it is almost a death to let them join the battle prematurely, so after a full battle, Duke can only fight a combat regiment, a thousand dwarven warrior regiments, plus five hundred war sheep cavalry.

As for the human cavalry, due to the absolute deficiency of numbers, it can still only be used as a sentinel on the outskirts of the monster valley, and it basically cannot reach the strength of a large-scale cavalry charge. In other words, Storm Castle will take out a combat force of up to 3,000 people to deal with the 10,000 fish-man warriors of the Shark Tribe.

You must know that the Wild Shark Tribe is different from the original Wave Tribe, they themselves are more ferocious, and with the full set of weapons and equipment of human beings, their strength is far from the same. It's just that Duke doesn't understand that the weapons made by his Storm Fort don't have the money to supply the Wave Tribe on a large scale, could it be said that Teucer's metal manufacturing output is stronger than that of Storm Fort, and can arm tens of thousands of fish-man warriors of the Shark Tribe?

Thinking about it, Duke always felt that this was unlikely, you must know that the Silver Moon Army of the eldest brother Baker was only three thousand elites who came out to fight, which was already quite a good strength among the lords. No matter how powerful Teucer is, he has not been the city lord as long as Baker, and his own strength is not as good as that of his eldest brother, how can he casually take out tens of thousands of armor?

Could it be that it was sponsored by his father, Duke Otto? It's just that the amount is too large, even if it is Duke Otto's sponsorship, it is not a simple matter, after all, the future heir of the duke, as long as Duke Otto's head does not have problems, basically Baker is a sure thing, whether it is strength, means or even appearance, he is the best choice.

In a sense, even Duke himself, in the absence of later experience, has to admit that Baker is indeed impeccable, and becoming a duke is a blessing for the entire Otto family, and Duke Otto also has a good son.

So Duke never figured out what was going on behind the scenes, because he really didn't know much about the northern territory of the Duchy of Berry. However, since the Shark Tribe is already armed, there is no point in thinking too much about how the equipment came from, just thinking about how to deal with it.

Three thousand against ten thousand, even if it is to occupy the advantage of the defender, this battle is very difficult to fight, because there are basically no fortifications along the entire Sea of Death. And Duke can't let the Shark Tribe go deep into the Seine, after all, the hydroelectric plant is still there, and if there is any damage to the hydroelectric plant, it will be more than worth the loss.

After all, there are many laboratories in the entire hydroelectric plant, especially Watt's steam laboratory, which has entered the final stage, and if it is interrupted because of this, Duke probably wants to die.

After discussing with Alan and them for a few days, Duke finally planned to use the advantage of equipment, use the Roman tortoiseshell formation, use the heavy infantry to withstand the attack of the mad shark tribe, and wait until it enters the stalemate period, and then use the powerful assault power of the war sheep cavalry to deal a fatal blow to the mad shark warriors.

In addition to these, Duke also cheekily found Gandalf, and now that this is the case, as the chief magician of Stormcastle, it is time to play his role,

When Duke told Gandalf what he was thinking, the old man simply spread his hands and said, "Little one, do you really think that the Great Magus is an invincible existence? The reason why the Sea Clan can dominate the ocean is that they also have a strong magical nature, and ordinary magic has little effect on them at all. As for high-level magic, even if I can unleash it, how many fish-man warriors can I kill?"

"Even if you exhaust the magic power in my body, you will only kill hundreds or thousands of people to death, and in the end, you will have to rely on your own strength to win this battle. ”

Gandalf said that. Duke looked at him with wide-eyed dissatisfaction, as Duke had almost treated Gandalf as a nuclear deterrent. Of course, he also knew before that the magician forbidden spell was definitely not as strong as nuclear deterrence, but the power of intercontinental missiles was always there, 10,000 mad shark warriors, as long as Gandalf managed a few thousand, it would definitely deal a huge blow to the morale of the mad shark tribe, and the next war would be much easier.

As a result, Gandalf said that the Sea Clan also has a demonic nature, and if they die, they will not be able to get a thousand people. This is too big a gap from Duke's previous prediction, you must know that the sea clan guys have a strong physique and a relatively low IQ, and their fear psychology is relatively low due to their low IQ, and one-tenth of the casualties cannot shake their foundation at all, and the difference in strength between the two sides is still extremely huge.

Sure enough, any world is fair, and if it gives you great power, it will not give you strong fecundity. If you are given strong fecundity, it will not give you a strong physique. Any race that has no magical talent will have a strong anti-demon physique, and if it does not have a smart brain, it will have great strength.

Each race has its own advantages and disadvantages, and there has never been a perfect race, but the human race is relatively balanced, so it has become the overlord of the continent. Duke sometimes wonders if there really is a creator in this world, how can they be so mutually reinforcing.
