Chapter 9 Celtic Military Reform
In an instant, the outstretched wings set off a hurricane, waves of fire surged, and a huge sound roared through the depths of the cavern, and the materialized dragon power filled every inch of the void.
Yalei found that the four walls of the cave were gradually melting in the sky-rushing red flames, scorching as deep as the center of the earth, and the torrents of flames mixed with the laughter of the old people formed a huge whirlpool, gathering on the body of the flame dragon in the center of the cave, and finally subsided.
"I'm born again!"
Lao Wa lowered his snake neck, looked down at the black-haired knight directly below, and a burst of black smoke mixed with sparks erupted from his nostrils, and he did not hide the excitement and fanaticism in his heart, and slowly roared:
"I, the future Flame Dragon King, Infenris, will be your closest companion, come to my back, and I will proclaim to the whole world the loyalty and goodwill of the Vam to the Rosevians. ”
"I don't think it's necessary for the time being. ”
Yalei immediately stopped its move, and quickly explained: "My plan is to lure the Highland Kingdom into sending troops, if they know in advance that a dragon has appeared in Celt, they will probably shrink to death. ”
"It's ...... anyway"
Lao Wa's eyes flickered with silver fire, and he silently raised his head and asked softly, "According to His Excellency the Governor's plan, how long will I need to endure?"
"It won't be long, within a year. ”
"It doesn't hurt to do that. The flame dragon nodded the dragon's head, and his whole body sat directly back to the ground, and the inside of the cave suddenly shook for a while.
Isn't it just a year, eat a full meal, and then take a nap and it will pass.
"As for the origin of artificial dragon blood, I think. It is necessary to explain it to you. ”
The black-haired knight thought for a moment, and in order not to leave a problem in the hearts of the two clans in the future, he explained bluntly:
"This kind of black magic. It is an evil spell invented by a group of scum and criminals, who slaughter Vam to extract dragon blood and create a dragon blood chalic to gain power. ”
"There is such a thing!" Lao Wa instantly regained his standing posture, and suddenly opened his wings, and even his voice seemed to be mixed with sparks: "Where are they hiding at the moment?"
"Executed, the culprits were killed by my partner and I with our own hands. ”
"Well deserved!"
The flame dragon bared its teeth in pleasure and opened its mouth to spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm. Scalding the ground into a tumbling lava pit, its pupils suddenly twitching. Nervously asked:
"The dragon blood you gave me to drink, is it also ......!!??"
"Of course not. ”
Seeing Lao Wa's expression gloomy, Yalei immediately waved his hand, saying:
"The dragon's blood you drink. It is the examination fee of the Obelisk Research Institute for the examination of the body of the Avam. Draw just a little at a time, and it won't endanger their lives. ”
"It's a little better...... But after all, something is wrong...... "Lao Wa shook his head, in his opinion, it was a very undignified thing to be taken out of blood by humans.
"Maybe you can think about it from a different perspective. ”
The black-haired knight noticed the flame dragon's expression and tried to persuade him:
"I know that the Vamu of the Emerald Valley have become different because of their return to carnivorousness, but as with you, they may also encounter bottlenecks when they become strong enough. This time. If they can ingest a certain amount of true dragon blood, they should be able to contribute to further growth. ”
Lao Wa was silent for a while. He said with a solemn expression: "...... As far as I know, even the most friendly Rossavian to the monsters rarely help others for free. ”
"Yes, interests matter. ”
Arley acknowledged what it said, walked up to the flame dragon, and said openly:
"But there is a difference between you and me, I and the Vam will be long-term allies, and even if we bulldoze the Highland Kingdom, we still have more room for cooperation. Therefore, I look forward to your strength and am willing to help you recover your dragon body. ”
"Hahaha, that's the most sincere thing I've ever heard. Lao Wa raised his head and laughed long, then narrowed his eyes, bent his snake neck to the black-haired knight's side, and whispered:
"Your Excellency, what do you mean by that phrase you just said - a wider space for cooperation?"
"An emerald valley can satisfy a group of Vam, but can it satisfy a group of flame dragons? I'm afraid food alone is not enough, right? Besides, I remember that dragons have a strong sense of territory, and as a weak Vam can barely coexist, it is difficult to say that they can regain their strong dragon body......"
The black-haired knight stared into its eyes, and his hands clutched upward, as if holding some kind of object:
"You need a wider living space, and I need a safe extraterritorial, the two are completely complementary and indisputable natural allies. ”
In his view, an alliance that is maintained purely by friendship and gratitude cannot last long, and that having common interests is the run-in agent for future cooperation between the two peoples.
"I like a straightforward human like Your Excellency the Governor. ”
The flame dragon shook its head with great interest, stretched out a huge front paw, and slowly raised it in front of the other party:
"You're not wrong at all, the future Flame Dragons need a Paradise Land, and if Your Excellency the Governor can grant our wishes, then the Vam are at their disposal. ”
"Witnessing the destruction of the Kingdom of the Highlands will be a wonderful beginning for you and me to work together. The black-haired knight smiled and raised his right fist, smashing it lightly on the giant claw.
"Hahahaha!"
The loud laughter of one man and one dragon soon rose and fell in the depths of the cave.
......
After signing a true pact with the future Flame Dragon King, Infenris, or Laowa, Areley returned to the Earl's Court. He took a warm shower to wash off the salt stains on his body, and then hurried to Dunlun City.
Today, it will be the day of the formation of the Celtic regular army.
Due to the current military budget of the Governor's Palace, the conscription plan went very smoothly, although it did not reach the estimated limit of 6,000 men, but there was a force of almost 5,000 men.
The legion of 5,000 people will be the core force directly under the Governor's Palace, and the black-haired knight will naturally not hand it over to others, not only to personally command, but also to keep the training and combat methods strictly secret.
In Yare's opinion. Now the entire combat system of Atlasu is very lame, basically a stage for high-end combat power, and the real big battle is often pinned on the collision of the top armies such as the Holy Knights and the Immortal Army. The position of low-end combat power is very embarrassing.
When a Scourge Knight can sweep away a low-level legion, what is the use of the low-level legion, using their own heads to pile up high-end combat power?
Let the masses of the people be puppets and fools?
They're smart!
Therefore, they have no morale at all when they go to the battlefield, and it is useless for the same low-level legions on the opposite side to win, and it will not have much impact if they lose. And when the opposite side was a top-level legion like the Immortal Army, they also knew that the only end of their battle was to be mowed by Wushuang. Basically, there is no resistance, and it is the right way to surrender obediently by sending weapons.
Especially in the case of the two behemoths of Roussevia and the Papal State, the polarization of the arms is even more serious. Because they control the most high-end combat power, the low-level legions are basically reduced to the roles of logistics, reserves, and engineers.
This is normal, provided that the two weapons of mass destruction, the restraint cannon and the rapid-fire gun, do not appear.
Restraint guns and rapid-fire guns are types of weapons that are constant in power. They don't increase their power just because you're a Scourge Knight. It won't be weakened just because you're a low-tier warrior. The difference is only that in the hands of the Scourge Knights, they can fire in infinite bursts, while in the hands of the low-level knights, doing their best is two or three hits.
Because of this, the black-haired knight clearly felt that the combat system of the entire world was lagging behind.
The Knights of the Holy Order's combined phalanx can only be used by the Knights of the Holy Order, as it is a large army composed entirely of the Knights of the Scourge. Other lower-level legions can worship from afar, and it is undoubtedly a fool to follow the example.
Fighters of different intensities. It should be paired with different forms of tactics.
When a platoon of low-level warriors can kill a Scourge Knight in frontal combat with a restraint cannon in their hands, the difference between low-level legions and high-end combat power will no longer be so obvious.
But even the Roussevia Empire, which was most focused on army reform, would not hand over expensive rapid-fire cannons to low-level soldiers, but still let them fight with cold weapons, a kind of habitual thinking that even a wise ruler like Emperor Romulus did not see through.
Or rather...... They may be aware of the problem, but they haven't come up with an effective combat system to compensate for it.
Yalei has a way, in his opinion, the era of the collision of the top legion alone to determine the outcome of the war is coming to an end, as long as his ideas are verified, the future will be the world of coordinated operations between the low-level legion and the top legion.
He named the tactic that was in the making - the line infantry column leap tactic.
Abandon most of the cold weapons, only equip standard swords and rapid-fire guns, advance slowly in a line, release artillery strikes to help friendly troops quickly annihilate, or cooperate with the stormtrooper formation to tear apart the enemy, and leave the battlefield directly after the fighting energy is exhausted.
As for the stragglers or something, he also thought about it, but after thinking of the terrifying perception and skill of the top legion, he gave up this idea. In the face of opponents of the level of the Immortal Army and the Holy Army, only the dense artillery wall that makes people unable to retreat can suppress and kill them.
The black-haired knight felt that the low-level army cooperated with a certain number of high-ranking warriors, as long as the training was in place, even if he encountered the Immortal Army or the Demon Guide Guard, he might be able to fight hard.
The idea is simple, but it is not easy to adapt the military to this new combat system, especially when there is no reference object at all, and it requires long-term training and experimentation.
However, fortunately, the wild Rosevians of Celtic have not seen much of the world due to their long-term wildness, and they do not have the concept of the invincibility of the top legion in their minds, and the training difficulty is a little lower.
If the low-level soldiers of the rest of the provinces are allowed to carry out this kind of experimental training, it will definitely be half the result, even if the training is successful, there will still be a psychological shadow when encountering the top legions, and maybe there will still be a situation where they surrender obediently with weapons.
All in all, the era of cold weapons is coming to an end, and in future wars, cold weapons are only the configuration of high-level legions, and low-level soldiers will have a rapid-fire cannon in their hands.
......
Celtic, Dunlun City.
Ilan and Quincy, two young men who were looking forward to gaining honor and status by joining the army, finally put on the uniform of the regular army after surviving the pain of fusing war paints.
Luckily or unfortunately, a completely different training awaits them.
Five thousand people stood quietly on the grassy land, lined up in a long line and slowly moved forward. Wait for the Governor to review it and accept your own weapon.
What is that?
As Quincy followed the team to the front of the reviewing stand, he saw the Governor wielding a sheathed sword. and a cylindrical hollow metal cylinder was delivered to the recruits.
Ilan behind him also saw this scene, although he was a little smarter than his companions, his brain couldn't turn for a while, how could such a thick hollow steel rod smash people.
Most of the people present were confused, and they were still able to keep quiet, all because the aura of the Governor was too strong. They are all warriors who break through the limit, and they can naturally faintly feel the difference between the Origin Knight and themselves.
"From now on, you are a glorious Rosevia warrior. Grab your weapon and wait to use it for your own merits. ”
Jarley repeated the same words, placing the two weapons in Quincy's hands, and glaring at him with a serious look. Then signal the other person to leave the review stand.
After the last fighter was assigned a weapon. The black-haired knight looked at a group of young warriors who were helpless with rapid-fire guns, smiled, raised his voice and said:
"This is a rapid-fire cannon, your partner in life and death, and your instructors will teach how to use it, and now you will go to the barracks in Glamorgan for training. ”
After speaking, he turned his gaze to an instructor beside him:
"Dean, have your men divide them into squads. Take it to Glamorgan. ”
"Yes, sir. ”
The other party immediately gave a military salute on the side. Then he turned around and took two hundred field soldiers, and scattered to the left and right in turn, and soon divided the five thousand men into a group of twenty-five.
These two hundred people are the field soldiers brought by Siz last time, and the other hundred are staying in the camp of the Great Wall garrison, and the remaining batch can be used as recruit training instructors.
Their tasks weren't as heavy as they used to be, and it was enough to teach the recruits how to line up, shoot, and give basic marching instructions. Melee combat or something, because the Governor's order to quickly form an army can only be postponed.
Aree watched as the long line of five thousand men was assembled, and the five walked side by side towards Glamorgan, turning to look at another figure, Shahrir.
This changeling queen has been trained by Charlene in various ways, and she is already dead set on her, even if she is allowed to obey the orders of the great enemy of Yalei, this guy is willing to do it.
"The training of recruits still needs your cooperation, go and prepare. He instructed lightly.
"Yes. ”
Shahril silently bent down, immediately took a few steps back, and lay on all fours on the ground, quickly transforming into the prototype of the remnant winged Pegasus, and flew towards Glamorgan in a cloud of black mist.
After completing the most basic military training, letting these recruits enter the Nightmare Proving Ground and deal with Shahrir's changing monsters should allow them to quickly adapt to the war.
If you can keep the line advancing when dealing with monsters of this level, then this new army can be considered to be trained.
Cooperate with rock monsters, vam, and water lizards...... Inadequate...... ...... is needed
Before he knew it, the black-haired knight had already walked to the harbor in the south of Dunlun City, and it was almost dusk, so he simply sat down on a fairly clean rock.
Watching the sea water lap on the shore, turning up white waves, as the waves disperse, countless crystal water droplets splashed on the beach, and occasionally a few live sea fish jumped out.
Suddenly, Yalei's eyes were dark, two pairs of snow-white slender hands covered his face, and a quiet and sweet voice came from behind:
"Guess who I am?"
"Elena?"
The black-haired knight looked surprised and delighted, and immediately grabbed the two wrists covering his eyes, moved them away, and then turned back to look at the other party.
The snow-haired girl was dressed completely differently today than the last time they met, with beautiful long hair coiled behind her head, a purple cotton silk armband on her upper arm, and white lace on the edges of the two armbands.
The snow-white neck has a neck ornament, the same blue cotton silk neck ring, and a blue gemstone hanging in the center. A long skirt is a dress gauze skirt, stacked upwards from the end of the skirt, like petals, falling down in layers like petals, until the thin waist, the whole skirt is getting narrower and narrower from the tail end to the waist. The lower end of the skirt is swollen, and the upper end of the skirt is slender, such a size contrast can just set off the beautiful lines of the waist.
"Why are you always elusive? and...... What do you mean by not leaving that inexplicable passage?" asked Are, looking condescendingly at her familiar pretty face, with some eagerness.
"It's only been so long since you've seen someone, are you going to ask these boring questions?" Elena pursed her thin lips, and an aggrieved expression appeared on her pretty face.
"These questions are not boring at all, they are important!" the black-haired knight emphasized.
"I'm not happy, so I don't say anything. ”
Miss Wu smiled lightly with bright eyes, lifted her skirt and took a few steps back, and then turned around lightly, and the fluffy skirt suddenly bloomed like a flower.
"Does my new dress look good?" she asked, expectantly.
"It's good-looking, it's mature......" Areley replied honestly, trying to keep his mind in check.
"It's nasty, it's immature. ”
Elena feigned a puff of cheeks, and her hands erected their thin white thumbs, index fingers, and tail fingers, overlapping in front of her neck, and blinked her right eye:
"People are obviously eternally seventeen years old☆!"
"Poofhahahaha!"
The black-haired knight still couldn't help laughing on his back, covered his abdomen, and said breathlessly: "This look is really great, it's really an eternal seventeen-year-old girl, Elena!!"
As he spoke, he learned the other party's gestures in a similar manner, folded his arms around his neck, and couldn't help but ask:
"Isn't it handsome?"
"Hahahaha!"
Miss Witch also learned to laugh on his back, wearing a long white dress, swaying like a flower branch as she kept smiling. (To be continued.) )
