Chapter 96: Uproar
The news of Guangye's victory spread in the northern provinces.
At the time when the battle should be at its most anxious, the orcs in Kotave City, who were ready to evacuate at any time, rubbed their eyes vigorously, and they were surprised to find that the most elite panda warriors in the bright field were swaggering into the city to purchase supplies.
Orcs flocked to the front, eager to know what was going on on at the front.
The phrase "We won" quickly spread throughout the city of Kotaave.
The orcs poured into the streets cheering, the best news they had ever heard.
After learning the news, the Iron King Champion Regiment stationed on the outskirts of Kotav City immediately sent a signal corps into the city to verify whether the news was reliable, and after receiving a positive reply, the commander of the Iron King Champion Regiment was silent.
He knew very well that the composition system and number of personnel of the military force of the Bright Field, plus the vassals were less than one wing when they were fully armed, and their opponent was a well-equipped and well-trained human mercenary group with two wings, and they actually won?
The Iron King Champion couldn't say whether to be happy or to have other emotions.
He asked himself, naturally hoping that the Bright Field Lord would win, but there was something strange in his heart. Outnumbered, weak over strong, this kind of example is rare in the history of war in the orc kingdom for a hundred years, how did he do it?
"Looks like we've got a great neighbor. The Iron King Champion Commander exhaled lightly and straightened his military hat. He thought maybe he should find a time to visit the magical place called Bright Field.
In this battle, Guangmingye won a complete victory and gained a lot.
No one would believe that in this battle in which tens of thousands of troops were invested by both sides, Guangguang Ye had achieved an incredible zero death.
Throughout the history of warfare in the Orc Kingdom, no legion has been able to achieve zero deaths in battle, not even Rommel the Desert Fox, who was named the god of war.
Bright Field has been unprecedented and unsurpassed in every sense.
In this battle, Guangye captured thousands of mercenaries, and captured countless weapons and equipment, each mercenary has a good net worth, and there are a lot of gold coins in his pocket, and it is also an amazing wealth to gather together, which is of course also returned to Guangye.
The reason why Chang Hao didn't kill these mercenaries was because he didn't have the interest in killing prisoners of war, and secondly, because these mercenaries were all good hands, and they were wealth itself to the Spencer family, and the Spencer family would definitely be willing to ransom them back with a lot of gold coins. Isn't it a fool to have money and not make it?
However, mercenaries are only mercenaries in the end, they belong to the family rather than the country, and they will surrender when they see that there is no hope, and if they are replaced by regular troops, they will rather die than surrender.
However, the most valuable is the captured leader of the Blood Rose, Elena.
Elena had been detained all the way to the Bright Field.
In various rumors of the Human Empire, orcs are portrayed as ignorant barbarians with low intelligence who only know how to kill and reproduce and cannot communicate. Elena knew how attractive her full body was to males, and she didn't even dare to think about the humiliation she would be subjected to if she was reduced to a prisoner.
As a former orthodox knight of the Spencer family, Elena had no intention of surviving the fierce battles that had preceded her. But for the lives of thousands of her subordinates, she had to choose to surrender.
She had pulled up her loyal subordinates in the Spencer family, and she would not allow herself to watch them die in vain.
"I'd rather bite my tongue and kill myself than become an orc's crotch plaything!" Elena had already made a decision in her mind.
A soldier can be killed, but not humiliated.
The prisoner car slowly drove into the Guangming Wilderness area, and a strange look rose in the depths of Elena's gray eyes, she looked at the scenery along the Guangming Field, although the sky here was filled with snowflakes, but for some reason it was blooming with patches of wildflowers that were out of season, the river canal that should have been frozen was still tinkling, and the statues full of oriental antiquity made her unable to take her eyes off, and there were fiery red halls that she had never heard of everywhere.
The wilderness outside is snow-white, but it seems to be the season of spring flowers.
The breathtaking scenery of the Bright Wild made Elena wonder in her heart.
Is this really the rumored backward and barbarian orc kingdom?
Although there were no casualties in several units of Guangmingye, there were not a few wounded, almost everyone hung up the lottery, and the medical team formed by the mantis tribe was treating the soldiers in an orderly manner, and Chu Xue found Chang Hao with statistics.
"It was a perfect and beautiful conductor that exceeded my expectations and imagination. The reason why this battle ended so quickly and the battle damage was so low is inseparable from you. Chang Hao smiled with relief: "If I weren't an insider, I'm afraid I'd really think that you didn't secretly open God's vision." ”
"Let it do its job, that's what I'm supposed to do. Chu Xue rarely smiled, "And the one who can really influence the situation of this battle is you, the boss." ”
Chang Hao's heart was secretly cool, don't look at the cold snow at the beginning, the speech is actually super good.
"According to the statistics of battle damage, 87 Yang Yan armor were damaged, 43 Yang Yan shields were damaged, 127 Yang Yan swords were damaged, 200 metal armor bullets were consumed, and 2 destructive warheads were destroyed. Chu Xue looked at the lines of numbers on the report sheet and frowned slightly, "The advantages accumulated by the Human Empire in terms of equipment are worthy of a hundred years, and even the divine weapons forged by the monks and elder brothers of the Weishui Sword Mansion can only catch up with the disadvantage. ”
Chang Hao's face was solemn, and he nodded faintly.
The first phase of the "Yang Yan" series of standard equipment developed by Weishui Jianlu can make Guangmingye's equipment advantage equal to the ace legions of the descendants of the Orc Kingdom, but this does not mean that they can be on an equal footing with the Human Empire in the true sense.
After hundreds of thousands of years of accumulation and evolution, the science and technology of the Human Empire is not yet a level that can be caught up and surpassed overnight. Although the advent of sniper rifles such as the 98K heralded the beginning of the era of hot weapons, it was only the beginning.
War is always the best catalyst for technology and civilization, and the human empire will inevitably increase investment in science and technology and equipment research and development after tasting the bitter fruit of this failure.
Modern technology may seem powerful, but it doesn't really mean it's superior.
In the past, there was no gap between the speed of the cavalry of Genghis Khan's expedition to Europe and the speed of the armored forces in the 20th century; the bed crossbow in the Northern Song Dynasty had a maximum range of 1,500 meters, which was not much weaker than the sniper rifles of the 20th century; and the destructive power of catapults in the Middle Ages was not much behind the tanks and artillery of the 20th century.
Whether it is ancient or modern, in fact, human beings have not made much breakthrough in basic science and technology, and they still use the "old three" of the past, but they have been optimized in terms of performance, volume and materials. Tracing back to the roots, the essence is still the same.
Guangguang Ye can develop hot weapons, can't the Human Empire?
Even if the Human Empire can't immediately imitate a hot weapon, as long as the requirements are lowered and replaced with some alternatives, such as a heavy bed crossbow with an optical scope, the Hex family has this ability, and what they lack is just an opportunity, an inspiration.
At that time, will Mitsuno still be able to hold on to the territory as it does now?
With two mercenary groups having such a powerful fighting force, what about the mage wing that the Human Empire is famous for, the berserker army that is not afraid of death, or the dragon knights who are said to be invincible in the sky?
The reason why this battle was won was that on the one hand, the orcs laid the foundation with courage, strategy and excellent equipment, but most importantly, he single-handedly faced two golden knight-level human powerhouses.
Under the cultivation of the Jindan Realm, Chang Hao has basically used seven successes, and even used such a trick as the imperial sword technique to suppress the two regiment leaders. And if Elena, who abides by the rules of knighthood, is replaced by another unscrupulous "Pisco", Chang Hao asked himself, he will not easily win this 1v2 duel.
The human empire is bound to take revenge, and the seemingly victorious Guangye is actually putting itself and the orc kingdom in a new round of arms race.
Just like the Soviet Union and the United States, which engaged in an arms race in the context of entering the universe.
Under the tide of the times, this is the trend of the times.
"Inform the troops who cleaned up the battlefield to clean up the battlefield again, and the equipment wreckage was recovered, especially the shells of the metal armor bullets. Chang Hao said suddenly.
"This Sister Chang Ge and Sister Xiao Ai have explained to me before. Chu Xue was slightly stunned, and quickly replied: "The metal armor shells have been recovered, a total of 199 pieces." ”
"199 shells, excluding the two destructive warheads without shells, a total of 200 metal armor shells, how could only 199 shells be found?" Chang Hao narrowed.
"The unit that cleaned up the battlefield reported that the place where Platinum and Vivien sniped was later included in the frontal battlefield, and the surrounding area was in shambles, and in fact, many of the recovered bullet casings were flattened, and they were almost unrecognizable as bullet casings. "The remaining shell may have been completely destroyed in the battle," Hatsuyuki said. ”
"Maybe... Which team was the most seriously injured after the war?" Chang Hao shook his head slightly, hiding some unknown worries deep in his heart.
"It's Herbert's Spartan Bearmen troops. Chu Xue said: "Although their task is to cooperate with the Frozen Throne Light Cavalry to launch a coordinated attack, they are extremely hard, so that they have the most lottery prizes. But fortunately, their muscles are different from ordinary people's development, they are only skin trauma, and after the treatment of the medical team, they went to sleep without eating. ”
Chang Hao patted his head, and then he remembered that it was winter, and it was the time when the bears hibernated, no wonder they were too lazy to eat and were in a hurry to sleep.
"The damage to the rest of the troops is under control and can be put into battle after a short recuperation. As Chu Xue was talking, a snow leopard warrior who was in charge of guarding the captives walked in quickly, first saluted the boss, and then whispered in Chu Xue's ear.
"Boss, Elena, the head of the Blood Rose Mercenary Regiment, has requested to speak directly with you. "First snow course.
"It's okay, let her see if you want to see it, I bet she wants to redeem herself. ”
Chang Hao turned around and sat on the chair at the top of the steps of the main hall and smiled meaningfully.
