Chapter 502: The Weakness of the Winged Troops
"I can cast the Judgment Wheel with all my might, and reduce that enemy fortress to ruins. At that time, the other party will lose its defensive advantage, and no matter how fierce the combat power of that giant beast is, it should be difficult to resist the strong attack of your and other armies in the end, right? It's just that after that blow, the rest of the battle is up to you. ”
Hearing this, Byron Weir didn't know what to say for a while.
According to the plan of his own emperor, he wanted to attack this fortress and then use it as a rear supply station.
Is it okay for you to just crush it?
As a result, Baron Weir politely rejected Ares' offer.
"Forget it. It's better to let the army rest for a while, and wait for our follow-up reinforcements to arrive, and then it's not too late to make plans. ”
Ares didn't have any other comments on the proposal.
After all, he came here to fight, and he only had a winged army of 10,000 people in his hands, so he naturally had to cooperate with the actions of the army under the command of Kiel Fito, who was the main force.
Ares's cooperation made Byron Weir breathe a sigh of relief, and while sending someone to deliver the news to Kiel Fito, he also quickly started the layout after that.
The other side.
As the side with the heaviest casualties, the southern border defenders, who are now busy dealing with the wounded and recovering from their strength, are unlikely to do anything else in the short term.
As a result, the two sides entered a state of truce.
This delicate situation made the next half of the winter very peaceful.
In comparison, Xia Qi's life is still a little difficult.
100,000 reserve soldiers were requisitioned again, and he had two mouths and one skin, and the requisition order was issued, but there were a lot of things that needed to be arranged, so Xia Qi was still busy during this time.
At the same time, in addition to dealing with this series of things, he also needs to keep an eye on the output of the arsenal and the dwarven explosives workshop.
In addition to soldiers and food, the most important thing to fight a war is weapons and ammunition.
And these things are notoriously money-burning.
Not to mention anything else, now that a battle is fought on the southern border, millions of bullets alone will be consumed.
Seriously, Xia Qi didn't want to read the report on this aspect, and it hurt to see too much.
Not to mention, in a war, bullets are just the basics, and there are also consumable weapons such as shells, grenades, and mines.
In addition to these, there are a series of expenses such as the daily food consumed by each soldier, the monthly salary, and the pension to be paid in the event of injury or death.
The sum of this sum of money, the series of zeros behind it is enough to dazzle.
Since the beginning of this all-out war, the poor Minister of Finance in Great Xia can be said to be getting thinner and thinner.
The arsenal of Great Xia did not stop for a moment, batches of ordnance were produced, and then directly loaded onto the train, along with food and medicine, and transported to the border battlefield as quickly as possible.
It can be said that any of these resource supplies will be cut off, and the border defenders will collapse directly.
In these years, when the war started, what we fought for was resources, and what we burned was money.
The side with more abundant resources will be able to occupy a more obvious advantage.
Resources and troops, from production to transportation, from training to mobilization, at this time, Great Xia is like a machine running at a high speed.
Another month passed, and the embroidered guard finally sent the interrogation report.
To be honest, this is a bit inefficient.
Originally, Xia Qi thought that according to the efficiency of the embroidered guard, he should be able to get the news from the prisoner soon, but he didn't expect that such a long time had passed.
In this regard, Zhou Xing, who was in charge of this interrogation, could not help but ask Xia Qi for guilt.
Then Zhou Xing's follow-up report Xia Qi learned that most of the wingman soldiers who were captured alive by them were like a group of fanatical believers.
To be honest, this is a group of crazy people who can do anything for the sake of their faith.
For these guys who are already abnormal, the general torture method is useless, and at the beginning, Zhou Xing was killed in a row (this chapter is not finished!). )
Chapter 502: The Weakness of the Winged Troops
Several, but they didn't get them to open their mouths.
In the end, he changed his ways, found a winged soldier with relatively weak faith, and interrogated him alone, which led to some of the information.
In addition to the information that Xia Qi had already guessed, the race they belonged to was called "Winged People".
What's more, this winged human race pays attention to blood, and often the purer the bloodline, the stronger the strength will be, and the higher the status will naturally be.
For example, those winged people who have not even fully developed their wings behind them belong to the civilian class, and they are the most ordinary winged people.
And up to the next level, those winged people who have strong wings and can fly freely in the sky are called the skywing species, which already belongs to the elite class.
Under this premise, if you go up further, it is the Holy Wing Species that is the aristocratic class.
The Holy Wing Race can be said to have the most noble bloodline and the most powerful ability among the Winged Humans.
But at the same time, on the premise of being the same Holy Wing species, there are also differences in the level of blood, which can be roughly subdivided into two categories.
Among them, the ordinary Holy Wing species generally has four wings, and the snow-white wings behind them will have a slight golden color.
Among the Holy Wings, the ones that stand out are the six wings, and the golden parts on the wings will become more obvious.
To a certain extent, the golden wings are the biggest criterion for judging the strength of a Holy Wing Race's bloodline.
At present, there are only seven people in the entire Winged Civilization who have six wings, except for their all-powerful queen, and Ares, who is responsible for leading the troops on this expedition, is one of them.
Xia Qi continued to look through the report in his hand, although the winged soldier was a small soldier and knew only a limited amount of things, he still had a lot of basic information to provide.
For example, the abilities they used before were actually not the spells that Xia Qi had understood before, but a special system called "Divine Arts".
For another example, this time, the six-winged Saint-winged Ares personally commanded the army, and there were 2,000 Celestial Wings, 6,000 Templars, and 2,000 Prayer-Seekers under his command.
Here, it is important to highlight the two special units of the Templar and the Praying.
Among them, the Templars are those winged soldiers who wield swords and shields, and they can perform simple magic spells.
The shield that forms around their bodies, known as Divine Blessing, can withstand some attacks.
Those that can strengthen their bodies and gain more powerful combat power are called blessing techniques.
The words of the praying are a rather special profession, they do not have any combat ability of their own, and the only thing they can do is pray.
When it comes to prayer, we need to first explain the system of magic.
Unlike sorcery, magic does not rely on any elemental power in nature, and what is required to drive it is the power of faith.
It's a bit like some gods on the earth that need the power of faith to strengthen themselves.
And where does the power of faith come from, it is accumulated through prayer.
This process takes a long time, and there are no shortcuts for even the most noble of the Six-Winged Saint Wings, unless there is a full-time prayer person.
In this way, you will be able to get a certain degree of career project bonus.
If there are no prayer seekers, and there is no long accumulation, the winged soldiers often use a few magic spells to exhaust the accumulated faith power at once.
Just like the Judgment Light Wheel that Ares had cast before, a divine skill of that intensity, even if it was a six-winged holy wing species, would never be able to be easily cast.
But Ares did it, and even after finishing it, he was very relaxed, and seemed to be completely unaffected.
In the end, the reason for this lies in the 2,000 people who prayed.
The Prayer Class is like a reserve energy source for the Wingman combat troops, and they can use the faith power they have accumulated to the frontline combat troops.
The power of faith needed for the Judgment Wheel of Light was not drawn from Ares at all, but from those who prayed.
And this is also the reason why he was not affected at all.

After reading the information, Xia Qichang exhaled.
At this time, he had already realized that he already knew how to deal with this winged army.
As long as he pulls out the Prayer troops that are used as reserve energy to deal with them, it is equivalent to cutting off the logistical supply of the Wingman army.
When the time comes, how long will they be arrogant?
Even if it does not collapse on the spot, I am afraid that it will lose its ability to sustain combat to a large extent.
After finding the weakness of the winged people's troops, Xia Qi's whole person relaxed.
However, such an important class, as long as the winged army is not stupid, it will definitely be properly placed in a safe and hidden location, and it may take a lot of means to find it.
Subsequently, Xia Qi recorded this information completely and smoothly, and then sent it to Greengrove by telegram.
It is no exaggeration to say that the value of this information is really too great, big enough to change the normal situation of war.
