Volume 1 Chapter 52: Calculation
"What's your name?" Yun Zhong looked at the young man in front of him, who was about the same age as himself, and it was this person who had commanded his men to attack the paladins' war horses with spears.
"Back to the master, under the ten captains also first. The young man of Oirard bowed and replied.
"It's the centurion who goes first. Yunzhong said.
"Thank you, master. ”
Yunzhong patted Yexian's shoulder and motioned for him to go and get busy.
In this battle, the Flying Fox Regiment lost fifteen people and wounded one hundred and nine people, most of them lightly, while the Nord Sea Mercenary Regiment lost more than 1,700 casualties, and more than 600 people were seriously wounded, including the seriously wounded, a total of about 9,000 people were captured.
"Is Nord Sea a place name?" Yunzhong walked side by side with Deblasi, watching the long line of captives march in the direction of Leopard Water City.
"No, Nord is the collective name of the northernmost countries in our Xiyi Continent, these countries are all coastal countries, and all the members of our mercenary group are from these countries, so it is called Nord Sea. ”
"How many countries are there in the Xiyi Continent?" asked Yun Zhong.
"One hundred and forty. Deblasi replied, thought for a moment, and added, "The total population should be about the same as the sum of your Great Shang and Great Xia." ”
"All Yahe's followers?"
"More than 95 percent is. ”
Yun Zhong smiled: "When the war is over, I may go to the Xiyi Continent for a walk." ”
"Welcome. De Blassi's answer was sincere.
Back in Leopard Water City, Xu Rong was also taken aback when he saw so many captives pulled back from Yunzhong, and said with a smile: "Will you scare the Rakshasa people like this, and you really don't dare to send troops?"
Yunzhong also smiled: "Don't say 12,000 enemies, it's 12,000 pigs, and I, a thousand-numbered person, can't catch a single one, don't worry, someone will definitely notify the Rakshasa people." Deblasi also said that about two hundred people fled.
After settling the captives of the Nord Sea Mercenary Regiment, Yun Zhong and Xu Rong met in the council chamber.
"Not to mention how to fight the battle in the future, you have already achieved a great success in destroying more than 10,000 enemy troops this time. Xu Rong said to Yunzhong.
"It is estimated that the faces of guys like Liu Bei will be ugly again. Jiang Qin laughed and said that he also stayed in Leopard Water City as Xu Rong's lieutenant.
Yun Zhong waved his hand indifferently and said: "According to Deblasi, the Rakshasa people have about 120,000 regular troops in Qinglu City, of which 60,000 are in the city, and the other 60,000 are garrisoned in various fortresses, as well as 30,000 mercenaries and 50,000 militiamen, in addition to the more than 10,000 people we eliminated today, there are about 190,000 people, including 130,000 mobile troops, and the strength can be said to be quite strong. ”
Xu Rong nodded and said: "The mobilization ability of the Rakshasa people is indeed very strong, after more than nine years of war, the losses of the Rakshasa army are five times that of the merchant army, and the number of dead alone is not less than a million, but they can still maintain such a huge force on this battlefield." ”
Jiang Qin sneered: "Although there are many ants, what can they do, pull the troops and start fighting in the open, and the Rakshasa has not won a single battle, so they can only rely on a large number of archers to defend and play with us." ”
Xu Rong faced the clouds and said, "If you are the commander of the Rakshasa Army, what will you do in the current situation?"
Yunzhong said: "The best policy, send 50,000 troops, stationed in Huangying Mountain, defend according to the danger, cut off the connection between General Ziyu and Leopard Water City, and the middle strategy, raise an army of 130,000 to attack my Leopard Water City." ”
Xu Rong muttered: "If the enemy uses the best strategy, then no matter whether the main force of our army is in Leopard Water City or in Baishui County, it will be greatly threatened, and it will not be able to let go of its hands and feet, if the enemy uses the middle strategy, then if I have few soldiers in Leopard Water City, there is a danger of being captured, if my main force is still in Leopard Water City, then the Rakshasa army of Baishui County can calmly withdraw and join the enemy of Qinglu City." ”
looked at the clouds and said with a smile: "The best policy, the middle policy, and there is a lower policy, let's talk about it." ”
Yun Zhong said: "The next strategy is to monitor our army with one army, and send another army to attack Menghe County or Greentown County." ”
"What strategy do you think the Rakshasas will use?" asked Jiang Qin.
"Down. ”
Xu Rong laughed: "Let's wait and see." ”
It wasn't until the early hours of the morning that Yun Fang left the council hall and returned to the Flying Fox Regiment's station, where he found Fena still waiting for him.
"Eighty sets of ground-level armor, three hundred ground-level weapons, one thousand sets of Xuan-level armor, five thousand Xuan-level weapons, three hundred high-grade war horses, 1,500 medium-grade war horses, 500,000 gold coins in cash, and the total value of the rest of the trophies is also about 500,000 gold coins. ”
Yun Zhong said with a smile: "There is still at least one million ransom to get when I go back, it seems that I have made a lot of money." ”
Fei Na said: "Chu Duoqing's letter, what you told him when you left, he has recruited several alchemists and refiners, but they are only at the Xuan Rank, and the best is only a Xuan Rank Intermediate Alchemist. ”
Yunzhong shrugged: "Menghe County can only do this, let him have time to go to Zhenbei City to have a look." ”
Fei Na looked up at Yunzhong: "Maybe it won't be long before Menghe County can't accommodate you, right?"
Yunzhong chuckled: "It's us." ”
Fena bit her lip, "I hope I can still keep up with you." ”
Yun Zhong looked at Fei Na, this beautiful woman who was not outstanding in her own right, her cultivation had also reached the sixth heaven of the earth level, and the hardships she had to pay when cultivating could be imagined, and in every major battle after the Demon Sword Regiment was merged into the Flying Fox Regiment, she was the one who rushed to the front.
Suddenly, Yunzhong took Fei Na into his arms, Fei Na was caught off guard, and Yun Zhong's strength was too great, so she completely gave up resistance and quietly snuggled in Yun Zhong's arms.
After a full minute, Yunzhong gently let go of Feina: "You have worked hard today, go back and rest." ”
The corners of Feina's mouth rose: "That's it? a little disappointed." ”
The two of them laughed at the same time, and Fena gave Yunzhong a blank look, turned and walked out of the room.
In the next five days, there was no major battle, of course, the scouts of the Great Merchant Army and the Rakshasa Army broke out again and again in the dense forests of Black Mountain County, and the casualties on both sides were not small.
"As you might expect, the Rakshasas used the stupidest of methods. In the conference hall, Xu Rong said to Yunzhong with a smile, "Five corps of the Rakshasa people, 20,000 people, are stationed in the direction of Leopard Water City, twenty miles west, and the other three corps, 12,000 people, are stationed in the direction of Huangying Mountain, monitoring our army, and ten corps of the Rakshasa army, 40,000 troops, are marching in the direction of Menghe County." ”
Jiang Qin said with a smile: "Gongsun Du, that old boy will be taken aback. ”
Yun Zhong said: "The main general of the Rakshasa army this time, Manro, is humble and steady, and is a typical representative of the battle of the dead, and his set has been effective in several battles with other countries in Xiyi, so I am sure that he will definitely use this way, take advantage of the advantage of troops, hold every gap, and then act to take advantage of a little advantage." ”
Xu Rong laughed and said: "Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles, yes." So what do we do now?"
Yun Zhong smiled: "Manro has already put the rice on several plates for us, all we have to do is eat it bite by bite." ”
