This southward invasion of the Imperial Central Army, which lasted for more than a month, finally ended with the complete rout of the Imperial Central Army. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Both sides of the war suffered heavy losses, with the Rose losing more than ten legions and at least 5,000 soldiers killed on the battlefield.

Thousands more were wounded, and the remaining two-thirds had to quit the army, with the exception of a third who were able to return to the army.

This does not include the financial consumption caused by the war, the siege of Rose City for nearly a month, and the city walls basically collapsed.

The damage caused to Egret Harbor due to the state of war is also immeasurable, but this can be repaired by trade with Blackwater.

As for the Imperial Army, the losses were even heavier, originally the Imperial Army had the superior strength of thirty legions, and later increased by ten.

In other words, the total number of troops of the Imperial Army reached forty legions, with a total of 80,000 men, which is a very staggering number.

When General Adolf was the commander of the army and fought with the Rose Army, the Imperial Army's losses were not large, only about four corps.

However, with the arrest of Adolf, Ka Miao ascended to power, and under Ka Miao's strong attack order, thousands of Imperial soldiers died under the tower.

In total, more than 15,000 corpses were lost in the three-week siege, and more than 20,000 were wounded!

Among them, more than half of them were permanently disabled and could no longer serve as soldiers, and they could only be discharged, and the losses of the Imperial Army exceeded twenty legions, a full 40,000 people!

According to post-war statistics, there were as many as 40,000 Imperial soldiers who surrendered, of which less than 30,000 were still intact.

A large number of wounded were brought into the Rose City for treatment, thanks to the Far Eastern Fleet's delivery of enough medicine and professional medical personnel.

Only then was it barely able to stabilize the situation, while the 30,000 soldiers of the Imperial Army were stationed outside the Rose City, awaiting their fate.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the Rose City has provided them with warm clothing and food, which seems to be a good sign.

"Hey, are the Rose people going to kill us, we're enemies, and you see how fierce they look at us, they want to eat us. ”

"Don't worry, if they want to kill us, there's no need to send us food, you see there's still meat, the food is even better than when we fought before. ”

"I've heard that the officers of the Rose family are indeed advocating for us all to be executed, but it is the Duke who is the one who overrides the crowd and protects us. ”

"Really? When I was on the battlefield, I thought I was going to die, but I didn't expect to survive, it's like a dream, it's incredible. ”

The soldiers of the Imperial Army discussed in whispers while eating, they were confused about their future, and the whole era was confused.

With the sound of the trumpet, the era of peace is gone, and God knows where they will belong?

In the makeshift camp in the northwest corner of Rose City, Lin Ye was inspecting the wounded, and there were so many wounded here, there were thousands of them.

And that's not counting the minor injuries, the doctors simply couldn't keep their hands busy, and everywhere they could hear the sound of ouching and sighing.

"Lord Duke, you're here, you've worked hard enough during the war, you don't have to come to this kind of place, you should go back and rest. ”

Panda, who was sitting and bandaging his wounds, immediately stood up when he saw Lin Ye coming over, and his address to Lin Ye had changed.

After this war, he had decided that this young man was the next person to lead the Rose family, not much better than Rose's boy.

"I'm good and not injured, what's there to work on, but General Panda, are you really okay?"

Lin Ye waved his hand and motioned for Panda to sit down and continue to receive treatment, and Panda charged on the battlefield, suffering multiple injuries all over his body.

It was also thanks to his strong physique, and that he was not mortally wounded, that he survived, if it were an inexperienced young soldier.

I'm afraid I don't know how many times I've died, after all, in order to survive on the battlefield, in addition to bravery, you must be clever and know how to avoid fatal trauma.

"Don't worry, my body is still strong, don't look at my beard so much, in fact, I am only fifty years old, which is the age of prime of life. ”

Panda grinned, although he was over half a hundred years old, he never accepted old age, and fought more bravely than young lads on the battlefield.

"Is there enough medicine here? Do you want to send another batch of warm clothes? It's winter now, and the weather is cold. ”

Lin Ye looked around, he had been here a few times, compared to the bloody and bleak before, it was shocking, and now it was much more stable.

After all, those soldiers who did not survive have been sent away, while the seriously wounded soldiers have persevered and entered the recovery period.

"No, no, no, we're not that pretentious, hey, are you the kid who led the cavalry to attack the rear of the Imperial army? What's it called, by the way, Lancelot, it's Marshal Landau's son, right? Speaking of which, I've seen your brother Ranmaro, but I haven't seen you. ”

Panda quickly shifted his gaze to the majestic young general behind Lin Ye, who was Lancelot who had rushed from the Far East.

"General Panda is fortunate to know, I heard my father mention that he used to fight side by side with General Panda, but you are a senior. ”

Lancelot's attitude towards Panda is respectful, after all, Panda is a person from the same era as Landau and Adolf, and belongs to the remnants of the previous era.

"Hahahaha, where am I a senior, when I fought the Imperial Army, I saw my blood boiling, you kid has the shadow of your father back then, and he is really an amazing character, but how did you come here, here and the Far East are separated by more than a dozen provinces. ”

Panda laughed heartily, and finally threw out his question, the cavalry led by Lancelot was almost as if it had fallen from the sky.

"...... question" Lancelot hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to answer, he looked at Lin Ye, a little embarrassed.

"Let me answer, when I learned that Rhaegar was going south to attack the Rose family, I decided to go south by land and sea, and at the same time Lancelot led the cavalry by land and sea, bypassing the major provinces along the way, and rushing all the way, but it took longer as if the land road was tortuous. ”

Lin Ye briefly explained that it was a huge march to reach the far south from the Far East in a roundabout way.

Of course, the support of the major Far East branches is indispensable along the way, otherwise the supply will definitely not be able to keep up.

"I see, Lord Duke, did you prepare such a hand in the first place? You really don't know it, but you have come all the way to lead the army, just to save our Rose family......?" Panda suddenly realized, but still felt a little incredulous.

What kind of tricks should be needed to plan such a thousand-mile march?

"That's pretty much it, but there's one more thing we need to do after we finish out the Empire's Army Center. Lin Ye groaned.

"What's the matter?" Panda asked.

"Rhaegar is most afraid of things right now. ”

"Enter the royal capital!" Lin Ye said solemnly.
