"We've lost so many troops, why, why can't we still win?!" At the same time as William lost his temper, Lord Ranjit also lost his temper, and even said that he had more reasons to lose his temper than William. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After losing so many troops, the battle situation turned out to be a stalemate, and even more unpleasant, and even more frightening, he was like the expeditionary force of the Russian Gothic Empire, without a little reserve.

Worse, to make matters worse, for the Russian Gothic Empire, with a population of fifteen million and a growing population of tens of millions of ruled peoples, they had nearly unlimited manpower to waste and squander.

But for the Maharaja of Ranjit in Punjab, the most reliable core force he could rely on was the Jat yeoman farmers whom he had allotted land.

The number of these Jats is not much, it can be said that if one dies, there will be one less. If the competition is consumed, he will definitely not be able to fight the Russian Gothic Empire.

"Bastard, what a bastard. While he was angry, Maharaja Ranjit also felt a deep sense of helplessness, and in addition to that, there was even more fear.

If this war is lost, then everything he has now will be a dream. His status, his power, his wealth, his army, his ambitions, his harem, countless beauties.

It's all about saying goodbye to him.

"All this, all this, all this, all this!!"

Thinking of this, Maharaja Ranjit could hardly help but moan. He even said that he could hardly resist the desire to give the order to retreat.

If he had to continue fighting, he wouldn't have done it. He even said that he would not negotiate with Wilhelm von Hereford, or surrender.

Anyway, what William wanted was those things, to pay tribute, to get tariffs and markets, and in addition to losing diplomatic power, to hire consultants or something like that.

Although all this is unacceptable, compared to being defeated and dying, and then losing everything, these are not so unacceptable.

It doesn't matter, anyway, even if he loses all this, he can still occupy a lot, and he can still be the king of a princely state, and he will be powerful and majestic in his territory.

Speaking of which, what Maharaja Landit is thinking about now is no different from that of the vast majority of princely states in Indy. And in the real history, that is, in the world of William's previous life, this was usually the case when the British colonists faced the rulers of these princely states.

As long as they can leave something, then they will be very happy to become captive, happy pigs, and then pass it on from generation to generation.

That feeling seems to be no different from those feudal kings who were raised in captivity in the Ming Dynasty. If you really say "difference", then it is those upper-class guys in the Ming Dynasty, compared to the upper-class society in Britain, their horizons are too broad, and their skills are too low-level-

This is not to say that they are weak in their ability to fight politically. In fact, if William had to choose, he would definitely think that the experience, skill and ability of the Chinese upper echelons in political struggle are unparalleled, and they are the best in the world.

It's like those traitorous ministers who are rumored in foreign countries, powerful ministers, or something. If you put it in China, I'm afraid that few people can get mixed up to that level, and more often they will be killed in minutes.

However, the excellent means of political struggle do not mean that the means of governing the country are excellent, and even the excellent means of governing the country does not mean that the means of maintaining rule are excellent.

At this point, the Ming Dynasty lost both horizontal and vertical comparisons.

As the pinnacle of the Bagu Wenhe imperial examination system, the stubbornness and rigidity of the bureaucracy of the Ming Dynasty can be called the first in the world. In this case, European countries are completely different...... It's a little bit farther. I'll leave that at that.

All in all, the war has been fought so far that such a stalemate has been formed, and neither William nor the Maharaja Landit are satisfied with this situation. The same was true of the expeditionary force of the Russian Gothic Empire and the Sikh army of the Jats.

Both sides struggled desperately, and both sides also fought desperately to the dead.

The elite troops of the Russian Gothic Empire were constantly dying because of the wrong way of using them - even if they had to do so.

At the same time, the Sikhs died quickly in the right way, even though they chose the most correct way to fight, and did form a very strong system of fortifications on the other side of the ravine.

However, no. Still won't work. Not at all.

It is true that there is little difference in equipment, but in terms of quality, there is a world of difference.

This "quality" does not mean the morale and training of both sides.

In fact, in terms of infantry alone, the level of Sikh infantry is quite high.

These yeoman Jats trained very hard for their land and for the Sikh faith. This effort, as a matter of course, earned them instructors - at first instructors in the Russian Gothic Empire, but now they have been replaced by Bretons.

Of course, in addition to the two most active countries in the Indy subcontinent, there are just as many people in Indy, and even in Indochina, who are panning for gold in the South Seas.

With great ambitions, and having long figured out the unreliability of the Russian Gothic Empire and the Britons, Maharaja Ranjit was very important for those who came from abroad to fight.

He hired a number of adventurers as his military advisers to help him train his army.

Of course, some of these adventurers are just scoundrels and bankrupt vagabonds, who have no ability to come here to eat and drink. But in addition to that, there are some who are really capable.

Especially a group of William's unexpected guys - the White Army.

After the almost omnipotent Cheka organization reported these names to William, it took William himself a little time to figure out who these guys really were.

Yes, it was in the beginning, those Polotsks whom he recruited in the regions of the Republic of Polotsk. They formed William's first descendant unit, the elite of the White Legion.

This elite mercenary force, led by William, easily conquered the Novgorod Republic as a great power at the time, and then participated in the expedition to the New World, playing an active role in a series of southern and northern wars.

Of course, in the end, this unit did not escape the fate of being disbanded. Wilhelm von Hereford expected to arm himself with the advanced tactics of his own standing army, reserves, and national mobilization. In the end, I can't stand these mercenaries.

They are too savage, too indulgent, they fight for money, they are a group of war hounds who come after the bloody breath of money.

Perhaps, these guys can be relied on for a while. But any aspiring monarch should make the decision to assemble a more trusting army that is completely loyal to his lineage, rather than relying on these foreign mercenaries.

So, in the end, William used a little trick and finally split the legion, taking away the artillery, the hunters, and the elite troops and officer corps that he could trust, leaving behind a group of ordinary soldiers.

These ordinary soldiers are deficient in terms of ability, appeal, organizational and management ability, and economic strength. So shortly after William's withdrawal, the White Legion, a well-known mercenary group in modern times, was disbanded.

It was short-lived, but the remnants of the White Legion did not disappear like this. It is even said that the destroyed White Army has played a greater role in advancing the course of history than the existing White Army.

Some of the remnants of these white legions entered the army of the Briton Empire, and became the strong backing of the Britons in the subsequent military reforms, and some joined the armies of the Visigoths, Asturias, and even the Ottoman Empire of the Dark Elves. These guys were either depressed or used as military instructors and advisers, and to a large extent promoted the military level of the countries of the Old World.

Although these guys can only follow the cat and draw the tiger and learn nondescriptly, if you talk about the military level, these guys still have some.

In this way, the vast majority of the remnants of the White Legion had a "stable" and "decent" job. Even the worst and worst guys were absorbed by other mercenary groups and became the management of a mercenary group.

In today's Ostrogothic Empire, the backward and, of course, more importantly, financially poor princes still favor the help of mercenary groups. These guys happily rejuvenated the second spring of their lives......

Although in the future, the vast majority of the guys who chose this path died in the war of Emperor Kalman IV's madness.

That war between the old and new sects was like a dry cleaning machine, quickly wringing out the blood of various mercenary groups in the Ostrogothic Empire.

To this day, William has long forgotten this history, and even said that the White Army is a term of the past.

However, even today, on this battlefield, when he saw these guys in very nostalgic white military uniforms appear, William still felt a trance, surprise, disbelief, and crying and laughing.

This is the remnants of the White Legion that have been displaced to Indy. It was as if most of the remnants of the White Legion held a grudge against William.

The degree of their hatred is usually inversely proportional to the money in their pockets.

And these guys who will be reduced to having to run to Indy to take risks like a broken settlement, you can imagine how poor they are.

It can be concluded that their hatred for William is the highest.

"A little, well, what do you mean by a causal cycle?" William couldn't help but think, and then smiled pleasantly.
