Chapter 157: Terrifying Seizure!

However, to say that the biggest blow is Ye Ling, this siege battle is simply a slap in the face for him, a famous general in the world, if it were not for Ye Yuxian to put forward a good siege strategy, I am afraid that he Ye Ling Ling can only leave with the Fifth Route Army, so that Bayan Zhuoer becomes a sharp knife in the heart of the expeditionary force, and can only hope that Shi Da can lead the infantry to capture Bayan Zhuoer.

If you want to say that the biggest gains in this battle are Luo Wei and Night Rain Fairy, the Xiao Cavalry Army has long been famous in the Sky Wolf Pass, and Rovich and Night Rain Fairy were originally not very regarded by the real command, especially Night Rain Fairy, no one knew about her personal existence at all.

In this battle of Bayanzhur City, the prestige of Rovich and Night Rain Fairy was brutally proved in this blood-stained battle, and their names were firmly remembered by their respective countries, because both of them stepped on the mistakes of the world's famous general, whether they wanted to or not.

It took a whole day for the expeditionary force to finally clean up the battlefield, although the expeditionary force paid a huge price, but the harvest was still quite large, the blow to this coalition army was not the loss of Bayan Zhuoer City, but the most important grain and grass supply, Bayan Zhuoer City stored tens of millions of stone grain and large-scale forage, weapons, Arrows, the number is countless, this is still a lot burned when the flames burned the city, but fortunately, after Rovitch noticed the defeat of the army, he did not hesitate to break through to the south gate, and did not destroy the grain and grass and destroy the property, otherwise it would be good if the materials that could be saved could have one-third of what they are now.

The entire command of the expeditionary force followed the commander of Ye Lingyan, so the logistics officer was naturally there, because the field army under Lin Ruofeng was particularly high in all aspects. Cultural arithmetic is also not comparable to the people of this era. To save time. Under Lin Ruofeng's construction, a whole battalion of 10,000 Xiao cavalry soldiers was mobilized, and it took five hours (10 hours) to finally count the specific number.

"More than 4 million stones of rice, more than 6.5 million stones of wheat, more than 1 million stacks of forage, more than 30,000 horses, more than 3 million knight guns, more than 300 million catties of dried meat, and more than 2 million heavy swords. There are more than 3.2 million sets of Western-style armor, more than 800 million arrows, more than 300,000 catties of magic crystals, more than 20,000 catties of cash and gold, more than 3.2 million taels of cash and silver, and countless previous things, all of which are intact in the center of Bayan Zhuoer City, and the cattle and sheep and pasture horses were originally near the Hetao Plain, but after our army began to act, it was transferred to the north by Rovich, so we didn't capture much. ”

Lin Ruofeng and Ye Lingyan glanced at each other. My heart was full of shock, this seizure was simply crazy. With these grains and grasses, not only the problem of grain and grass for the expeditionary force has been perfectly solved, but it may also be able to support Tianluo Pass, so that the biggest logistical pressure in the country has been weakened by at least more than half!!

Lin Ruofeng calmed down and asked the logistics officer, "Do you roughly estimate how much silver these things are worth!"

The logistics officer hesitated for a moment before he said: "Western-style weapons and equipment are not very suitable for us, how should we calculate." ”

Lin Ruofeng hesitated for a moment, "You just need to calculate it according to its price in the Western world." ”

Ye Lingyan glanced at Lin Ruofeng strangely, obviously knowing what Lin Ruofeng was going to do with these Western-style equipment, and motioned to the logistics officer to hurry up and calculate, he also wanted to know how to get this time, after sacrificing so many soldiers, he would always have to get some interest back.

After a long time, the logistics officer said excitedly: " At the end of the general roughly calculated, according to the grain price of our Dazhao, more than 4 million stones of rice can be worth more than 200,000 taels of silver (equivalent to more than 2 billion RMB), more than 6.5 million stones of wheat can be worth more than 300,000 taels of silver, more than 300 million catties of dried meat worth more than 300,000 taels of silver, more than 30,000 horses worth more than 300,000 taels, more than 1 million stacks of hay worth more than 100,000 taels of silver, this is still without calculating the transportation costs, these grains stored in Bayan Zhuoer City, if we rely on us to collect from the country, plus extremely time-consuming, The price of manpower, material and financial transportation is at least ten times higher. ”

"But the above things are small heads, although they are the most important things for our army, but the valuable focus is still the latter things, more than 2 million heavy swords are worth at least more than 2.4 million taels of silver, more than 3 million knight guns are worth at least more than 6 million taels of silver, more than 800 million arrows are worth at least more than 800,000 taels of silver, more than 3.2 million sets of Western-style armor are worth at least more than 4.8 million taels of silver, cash gold weighs more than 20,000 catties is equivalent to more than 2 million taels of silver, but the most valuable is the more than 300,000 catties of magic crystals, which are necessary for magicians to supplement their magic power, very precious, more than 300,000 catties, , the magic crystal is worth at least more than 12 million taels of silver, plus more than 3.2 million taels of silver in cash, even if we don't count other things, our seizure is worth at least more than 32.4 million taels of silver!!"

Lin Ruofeng and Ye Lingyan were stunned, more than 30 million taels of silver, this amount is too huge, even for a country as big as Da Zhao, it is a huge wealth, you know, Da Zhao has a population of 3.6 billion, and the total tax revenue a year is only about 100 million taels, Bayan Zhuoer City is just a military fortress that can't even reach the county level, but it has countless wealth.

Ye Ling Yan quickly reacted, " In fact, it's not uncommon to think about it, this Bayan Zhuoer City has always been the forward base for the Rakshasa and orcs to attack our Da Zhao, all the materials have the nearest supply of millions of troops, if there is not so much inventory, rely on wartime to transport it a little bit, and the time to prepare grain and grass for a battle has been one or two years, which can also be understood, Bayan Zhuoer City has been their transit center and outpost for hundreds of years, and has never been baptized by war in these hundreds of years, so it is naturally very rich, not to mention Bayan Zhuoer City, it is our Huaiyuan City, the logistics supply center of Tianluo Pass, in terms of materials, I am afraid that there are more hoarded than this Bayan Zhuoer City。 ”

Lin Ruofeng nodded, this is also true.

Ye Lingyan suddenly remembered a very important thing, "Oh no, I forgot a particularly important thing, the Hetao Plain is a large and fertile grassland, this is an unimaginable large pasture, according to the information sent back by the spies, there are at least more than 20 million sheep and more than 4 million horses in the entire Bayan Zhuoer, that is the real wealth, especially horses, even if only a quarter of the horses can become war horses, it is still a million war horses!!"

Lin Ruofeng's heart moved, he almost forgot about this stubble just now, mainly because the Hetao Plain in the time and space before Lin Ruofeng was a famous cultivated land, and it had the title of plugging the south of the Yangtze River, so these were subconsciously ignored by Lin Ruofeng, and he didn't take into account that the Hetao Plain in this time and space was completely ignored because of the war and the reason why the Rakshasa people don't like to cultivate land and love grazing alone, the huge Hetao Plain of six million square kilometers has become a huge pasture for the Rakshasas.

A sheep is worth half a tael of silver, more than 20 million sheep is more than 10 million, an ordinary horse is worth more than 3 taels of silver, and a standard war horse is worth 10 taels of silver, so these more than 4 million horses are worth at least 20 million silver. And what is the war horse, it is an important strategic resource, why did Huo Qubing not take advantage of the situation to destroy the Xiongnu in one fell swoop? It is not because after the Battle of Mobei, the war horses of the Han Dynasty were almost completely lost, and a sufficient number of cavalry could not be organized. And when the Great Han regained his vitality and had a sufficient number of war horses ready to go on the expedition, the commander who was less than 23 years old, Huo Qu fell ill and unfortunately died, and the plan to destroy the Huns could only end without a problem.

30 million taels of silver, Lin Ruofeng and Ye Lingyan glanced at each other, and they were both stunned by the number that they had begun to calculate in their minds.

Ye Ling Yan frowned, and suddenly ordered, "Pass my order!"

"Order the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth Xiao cavalry battalions, and the ninth battalion and the tenth battalion of the ninth battalion of the Praetorian Guard, a total of 120,000 cavalry, quickly assembled, divided into two roads along the north and northwest two roads, the 12th battalion of the Xiao cavalry and the 9th battalion of the Praetorian Guard 60,000 troops are on the left side, the 11th battalion of the Xiao cavalry is responsible for the important pursuit of the northwest road, the 12th battalion of the Xiao cavalry and the 10th battalion of the Praetorian Guard are the right road, and the 12th battalion of the Xiao cavalry is responsible for Yu Zhilong, in addition, the second deputy commander of the Xiao cavalry Huang Jiafu is ordered to lead the 10th battalion of the Xiao cavalry to be in the center to be responsible for the dragnet inventory, and is responsible for the command of the two armiesBe sure to find the migratory army of Bayandhor, inform our army, and then stop their horses and sheep, which we will bring back!"

"But," Ye Ling Yan paused, "if you have already pursued two thousand miles (800 kilometers) from Mandal, don't chase anymore, just station and wait for the arrival of the army!"

"No!"

The herald wrote down Ye Ling's order and hurriedly went out to give the order.

Lin Ruofeng frowned and said to Ye Lingyan: "Great Marshal, is it too late for us to pursue now?" It's been four days, plus the time we marched before, they've already gone a long way." ”

Ye Lingyan waved his hand to Lin Ruofeng, came to a huge topographic map in the tent, pointed to the town and said to Lin Ruofeng: " The previous actions of our army have always been covert marches, until we began to show traces of the army in this kick mouth town, presumably Rovich began to organize the migration of cattle, sheep and horses at that time, but don't forget, if you want to organize these cattle, sheep and horses, even if you have 100,000 troops to help, it will not work without three days, and we took a maximum of six days from attacking the town of Kick Pass to coming to Bayan Zhuoer, that is to say, their cattle and sheep and horses walked for a maximum of seven days, seven days, such a large migration team, they can only go out at most 2,000 li (800 kilometers), Bayan Zhuor to Mandal is 60,000 li (24,000 kilometers) The only thing that can cause us along the way is Mandal, and they will definitely not be able to run away.
