Chapter XVII: Achilles' heel

That was more than ten years ago, when Ripasseur attacked Xianglin and forced Elephant Forest to sign the Treaty of Elephant Forest, intending to make Elephant Forest break away from the vassal status of Great Qi and become the protectorate of Liversel.

The Great Qi court shook up and down, and the war was at a time when there was no agreement. Hu Tieyan took the initiative to lead his troops to fight a decisive battle with Reversel's army at Zhennan Pass, winning a big victory in one fell swoop, killing thousands of Revassel's army.

The defeat was relayed back to Reversel, and Revassel's prime minister had to step down......

And this glorious victory also spread around the world, shocking the world.

Therefore, even after more than ten years, the military observers of the Luoba countries were in high spirits when they saw this southwestern army.

They wanted to see what kind of army could defeat Rywarthor!

"Obviously, the equipment level of this army is not as good as that of the army in Nanbei Town, but their morale is very high, and they have a kind of confidence that only a strong army can have!"

"Of course, Riewasel is known as the number one force in the world...... Although they were stained with the brilliance of the Sun King.

But the Rievasell army is definitely very strong, and if it can defeat the Rievasell army, there is naturally confidence!"

Military observers from several countries are discussing that even if the military appearance of the southwest army is not neat enough, the queue is definitely not as strict as the Zhongzhou army, but no one dares to underestimate this army!

"It's a pity that under this kind of terrain, the Southwest Army should not be able to give full play to their advantages. It's a shame......"

"Yes, the Southwest Army is an army that is good at mountain warfare. In this kind of plain battlefield, I'm afraid I can't take advantage!"

While everyone was talking, the two armies happily conducted a live exercise.

The armies of both sides lined up in a neat phalanx, and then under the rhythm of suona and snare drums, they approached each other step by step, raising their guns and firing at each other.

This kind of face-to-face queue to shoot in a war will put an immense pressure on the soldiers. It is not a very harshly trained army, which can easily collapse under such mutual fire.

Therefore, this kind of battle is one of the things to pay attention to is which side has a neater formation and more dense firepower.

The other is to see which side has a higher endurance and more people to collapse.

In the past several wars of divine punishment, since the collapse of the Central Forbidden Army of the Great Qi, the level of military strength has dropped significantly, and in this kind of shooting, the casualties exceed 20%, and the army will often collapse.

And in Roba, the number is usually forty to fifty percent!

In this exercise, it is worthy of being the elite selected by the thousands of Great Qi, and now the two sides are firing at each other, and the casualties have exceeded 30%, and the armies on both sides have not collapsed.

In the neat row of guns, after the soldiers fell to the ground, they were replaced by the soldiers in the back row.

After a group of soldiers were killed, the soldiers in the back row met the enemy.

In any case, even during the exercise, the performance of the elite troops in Zhongzhou and Southwest was satisfactory.

"It seems that the training over the years has been very fruitful!" Chen Mingchuan sighed lightly.

In the end, when the southwest army exceeded 50% of the tens of thousands and finally retreated, the victory of this exercise was won by the Zhongzhou army.

At this moment, the Zhongzhou army also suffered more than forty percent casualties. If the Southwest Army does not collapse, it will be the turn of the Zhongzhou Army to collapse.

The war in line to be shot is so cruel!

The commanders of all towns in Daqi were very satisfied with this exercise.

In this war, both the Zhongzhou Army and the Southwest Army showed great courage and combat effectiveness.

This is a situation that has rarely been seen since the collapse of the Central Forbidden Army!

Obviously, after so many years of building the new army, the combat effectiveness of the Daqi army has made great progress.

And obviously, the military observers of various countries, they are obviously not very happy with this exercise.

The tactics are too monotonous, there is no artillery coordination, no airship suppression, no mage casting.

Compared with the "virtual battlefield" of Daqi, the performance of the Daqi army is obviously not very much in their eyes.

"I noticed that there were very few stormtroopers in the various armies of the Great Qi. Although it is not like there is such a special assault regiment in our Roba army.

But it is clear that even in ordinary military formations, the army of Great Qi lacks stormtroopers......"

"Yes, alas. Their stormtroopers are too weak, even the so-called Southtown New Army, everything imitates the Roba army.

But the stormtroopers were too few, too weak, and did not have a strong shock force, so that the army they imitated was only in its form......"

As Yin Shengzhi said, the stormtroopers of Daqi were too few and too weak.

This is the biggest flaw of the current Great Qi army!

It's a pity that Yin Shengzhi was able to borrow a lot of mages from Arliga to make up for the lack of mages in the army.

But they couldn't borrow so many stormtroopers.

Without him, there would be much more stormtroopers!

A battalion-sized unit with a low-level mage in charge is enough!

And according to the establishment of the Roba troops, a battalion-level unit also needs at least a hundred stormtroopers!

These military observers are all experts, and after several military observations in the past few days, several military observers have a general understanding of the strength of the Great Qi army.

At this moment, the question of the Great Qi army was almost immediately raised.

This allowed them to calmly despise the army of Great Qi!

However, at this time, a voice said lightly: "Although the stormtroopers are the most important, the masters of the battlefield have always been mages. ”

One sentence made all the military observers dumbfounded, yes, although the stormtroopers are important, it is the mages who dominate the battlefield.

Daqi now has an archmage in charge, and if he can arrange a virtual battlefield, no one dares to underestimate it!

Soon, the New Army of South Town and the elite soldiers of North Town began to enter. Whether it is the military observers of various countries, or the generals and commanders of the towns of Daqi, the expressions of the commanders are serious!

Obviously, everyone knows that the combat exercises between the Zhongzhou Army and the Southwestern Army are nothing more than an appetizer.

The real highlight is the exercise between the Southtown Army and the Northtown Army!

In Daqi, these two towns are also the most powerful, and the battle between them represents the real combat level of Daqi.

The soldiers and horses of Beizhen were the first to appear, and they heard the strange screams, and the cavalry rushed into the battlefield with horse pistols, overwhelming.

And behind these cavalry, there were well-organized infantry.

Although the ranks of this army are not as uniform as the specially trained ones of the Zhongzhou army.

But at a glance, you will know that these people are veterans of a hundred battles, with tacit cooperation and rich experience.

Although there were only 20,000 horses, at this time, the power they displayed was earth-shattering, as if they had an army of 100,000!
