Chapter 187

Hearing the details of that battle, Sui Xiong was really taken aback.

He was not surprised by the casualties in the pursuit phase after the frontal battle, since ancient times, most of the main casualties in the war in the Cold Weapon Age occurred in the pursuit and killing stage - anyway, when he was helping to make the game, the chatter planner said so, so when they were asked to draw the background of the war, they must highlight the tragic atmosphere of the casualties in the "defeated" scene.

However, he was surprised that the two sides fought so fiercely in a head-on battle.

On the aristocratic side, half of the professional soldiers were killed, about a third of the knights were killed, and about a fifth of the militia were killed, and the battle damage was already very high. In Sui Xiong's impression, under normal circumstances, when about one-tenth of the battle is lost, the inferior side will often consider admitting defeat. Even if they can't admit defeat, when the battle damage reaches one-fifth, they will not be able to bear it and collapse.

Among the armies of the aristocratic faction, even the militia did not collapse until one-fifth of the battle was lost, which was already an extraordinary elite.

However, as the saying goes, "the gap is compared", compared with the new army of the merchant faction, the "elite" of the aristocratic faction is actually nothing.

You must know that the new army sent by the merchants continued to fight despite the huge disadvantage of almost all the officers being wiped out and the battle damage was close to sixty percent, and won the final battle!

This morale, this will, is simply against the sky! Sui Xiong had the impression that in this world, probably only the Knights of the Church, which are affiliated with the Church and are composed of all devout believers and even fanatics, can have such a will to fight.

Even on the earth before Sui Xiong crossed, there were only a handful of armies that could withstand such astonishing battle losses in field battles and fight to victory—it was really a handful, and the sum of ten fingers on both hands was probably enough.

Although Sui Xiong himself lived in a country defended by one of the best armies of less than ten, and his friends had more than one soldier, he did not believe that there were many armies in the world that were qualified to join the ranks of the "Iron Army".

There is a famous saying on the Internet, saying that East Asia is the so-called "monster room", the forces that can stand firm here, no matter how strong or weak, each catalpa has a tough body and fists, if they move to Africa, South America or the Middle East and other "novice areas", even if they are jokingly called "monkeys" or "strawberries" by many people, they can punch the Nanshan tigers, kick the North Sea dragon, and hang a "who fights" signboard.

In this world, because of the existence of the true God, the power of "faith" is becoming stronger and stronger. The Knights of the Church are often able to give an order, and they do not flinch from the sword and the sea of fire, and it is a matter of course for them to fight to the last soldier. Therefore, although the scale of the Church Knights is small, their combat effectiveness is often very impressive. In front of them, an ordinary professional army may not be able to have much advantage in ten dozen or one. As for the militia or something, it's even less worth mentioning, just like Sui Xiong watching e-sports professional masters play friendship games with fans on the Internet, it's really a little serious, and the battle is over......

In Sui Xiong's opinion, although the new army trained by the merchant faction is not as good as the Church Knights, it is already relatively close to this level. Not to mention anything else, although the army of the Northwest Republic may be better trained and better equipped than them, in terms of the will to fight, I am afraid it is still not up to it.

How exactly did such an army be trained? He couldn't help but wonder a little.

He had peeked at the merchant faction to train the new army, but from his impression at the time, those new troops were not particularly powerful, how could they not be seen for a few years, and they were suddenly reborn?

He asked Leon, who was also a little dazed.

"I haven't been to the New Army training back then, you ask me, I really don't know anything. "However, I am also curious, and I am curious to know how such an army is trained—in fact, let alone me, every country and every power in the world is very curious, and I don't know how many spies have been sent to inquire about the news, and even now, I have not heard of anyone who can find out the conclusive information." ”

Sui Xiong nodded, and then went to find Wenner, the god of war.

His instincts told him that he must be right to find Wenner.

And...... From a rational point of view, there is a super excellent army in the world, and it is impossible for Wenner to be ignorant of this, there must be some internal intelligence.

Sui Xiong guessed correctly, Wenner did have some intelligence.

When Sui Xiong explained his intentions, he was silent for a moment and smiled awkwardly.

"That army...... I trained with Ogmandin. He said.

Sui Xiong was stunned, and after a few seconds, he asked, "You and Ogmanding joined forces to train?

"Yes, we watched the training of the new army, and I think they are already very good, but not good enough, and there is still room for improvement. Ogmandin said that it is not enough to know only training, and that a competent army not only needs excellent combat ability, sophisticated equipment, and strict discipline, but also needs clear and firm conviction...... So we each found a believer to possess him, pretended to be a mortal, and became an officer. ”

"And then?" Sui Xiong asked curiously.

"It was easy for us to go into a training camp and become instructors. It took about three years to build an army that we were barely satisfied with. "And then we came back." ”

Sui Xiong thought for a moment and asked, "How did you do it?"

"I'm in charge of specific training, mainly to strengthen their sense of cooperation. For ordinary soldiers, individual force is far less important than cooperation. So I reduced the training of individual force and focused on strengthening their ability to cooperate. The goal is to create an army where a few people can form a battle group at any time and in any place. ”

Sui Xiong nodded, this is indeed a good idea.

"Ogermandin wasn't actually in charge of training, he was mainly in charge of ideological mobilization. He used his divine power to persuade the person in charge of the training camp to sign a contract for each soldier, and the main content of the contract was that even if the soldier died in battle, their family would be able to receive help from the state and have no worries about food and clothing. If any of their children were willing to join the army, they would be able to live in better conditions. But in contrast, they do not receive booty in battle, but only combat allowances......"

"Wait!" Sui Xiong was stunned for a moment and asked, "Don't take the spoils of war?

Wenner was also stunned for a moment, and looked at him suspiciously: "Isn't that what you said at the beginning?"

"Ah, I also said this?" Sui Xiong was at a loss.

"First, all actions should be under command; second, not to take a stitch from the masses; and third, all seizures must be returned to the public. "You were still making it into a song, but you said you forgot about the rest ......of the song," Wenner said.

Sui Xiong then remembered that when he was chatting with Wenner once, he once sang "Three Disciplines and Eight Attentions".

It's just that he couldn't memorize the whole song back then, and in the end, he only finished singing the first half of the song......
