It was only at this time that the general of the sixth battalion ordered the soldiers around him to leave Viscount Piyak. Www,QuANbEn-XiAoShUo,comThe battle is over, Viscount Piyak's face is still a little pale. He couldn't even imagine fighting at this level. During the defense battle of Metatrin City, he only stepped out of his hand and hired several artificial city walls for defense, while he hid in his mansion.
The cavalryman took off his armor and began to take out the items from the horse's leather bag. They were metal bottles filled with healing water. This was specially used by Salin to restore the strength of heavy cavalry. "Heavy armored infantry also have them.
However, the heavy armored infantry did not remove their armor. They did not consume much physical strength and did not have war horses. They had to be prepared for new situations at any time.
The infantry of the two flag regiments began to clean the battlefield. The so-called battlefield cleaning meant making sure that the enemy was completely dead, and also removing the enemy's valuable equipment.
The soldiers of the Sixth Battalion are like a group of ants, acting in a regulated manner and not making any unnecessary noise.
The cavalrymen of the Holy Rock City Envoy Regiment also dismounted their horses and rested in place. The two magicians were silent and thoughtful. Duke Balder didn't know what he was planning. The general of the sixth battalion sent someone over and asked for an hour's rest, and he casually agreed.
Normally cleaning the battlefield would take more than an hour, but the Sixth Battalion didn't need prisoners, just equipment. The alchemical crossbow arrows must be taken back, and the iron arrows of the heavy crossbow must also be taken back. Soldiers should check for damage to their armor and report to their officers as soon as possible if parts need to be replaced.
Soon, the Sixth Battalion's own losses were counted - ten killed, one hundred and seventy-five, and nine hundred and fifty wounded.
Among the dead soldiers, there were more than a hundred light infantrymen, and dozens of cavalrymen who were seriously injured and died. Even the magicians could not save them. None of the heavy armored infantry were killed, and only a few were slightly wounded.
There were nearly a thousand wounded, of which less than a hundred were seriously injured. The formation of the 6th Battalion changed, keeping itself in a state of attacking with more and less. Once someone was injured, it would immediately retreat.
"Let the lightly wounded and seriously wounded return to Metatlin, and send five hundred people to protect them." The battalion will quickly issue an order. His sixth battalion was one that Salin valued very much, and he was just a new defector to Salin, so he was very concerned about the damage to the soldiers. The battle this time could have been better.
The wounded soldiers were gathered together, and the seriously wounded were put on carriages. The lightly wounded were briefly bandaged, and then they rode infantry horses and returned to the original road under the protection of 500 soldiers.
When this group of soldiers returned to Metatrin City, Salin was still busy with the matter of supporting the soldiers. Hearing that the Sixth Battalion was attacked in Phoenix and lost thousands of men, Salin felt mixed.
What worries me is that I don't have many generals on hand, and the country has just been established, and I have little savings, so I have to start a war, which is detrimental to development. Fortunately, Phoenix is in turmoil and I have a reason to get involved. The envoy group was attacked, which was no small matter.
Salin immediately came to the palace from the alchemy factory in Nancheng and summoned all the nobles who had been canonized by him.
"My king, congratulations." Duke Renee was the first to speak. She is from the Tiffany family, and the great Tiffany magician who came to Metatron City is also from her family. Many talents in this family have left, but they have never declined. In the words of a magician, the bloodline of this family is naturally very powerful.
Renee is also a very smart person. When she first decided to invest in Metatrin, she was the most low-key, but she brought the greatest wealth. Now that Salin has established her country, she begins to plan with all her heart.
"Congratulations." Salin glanced at the other nobles and saw that most of them were happy.
"The people of Phoenix rebelled, and it was definitely not an accidental raid. What did the envoys have to rob? They did this because of Sun City's will. I think King Rex's Mars City is also in danger. My king, you We need to contact King Rex as soon as possible. The two countries must sign an agreement to jointly attack the rebels in Phoenix!" Renee can know what is happening in Phoenix just by guessing, and her political sense can be said to be very strong.
"My king, Renee is right." Elaine added next to her: "Joining King Rex, we can enter Phoenix with justifiable authority. The food in the north is only enough to be self-sufficient. Once our king wants to expand, he will be able to feed the army. , we need a granary like Phoenix. The same goes for Kushui County. My king, I have already made up my mind not to wait for the attitude of Holy Rock City!" "What do you mean?" Saleen looked around at the other nobles. Aini said: "I am willing to go to Haha to build a new city. I will leave all the matters there to
Salling was immediately relieved. With Aini to build the new city, the construction speed of the new city will be accelerated several times. Aini can summon a large number of undead and save himself a lot of soldiers. These soldiers can immediately join the fight in Phoenix. "I can send five thousand troops!" Gu Ya said happily. "I'll give you one thousand!" "I'll give you seven hundred!"
five hundred one one one one one one "two thousand"&qu;
The nobles generously helped, and in a blink of an eye, Salin had more than 20,000 more troops. He does not need to be responsible for the equipment of these armies, but is only responsible for a small amount of logistics, and can only obtain land rewards.
Salin did not expect that the nobles would be so enthusiastic. The one who called for five hundred troops was just a third-class baron whom he had newly awarded, which was the lowest among the nobles. Because there are still few nobles awarded by Salin, he is eligible to enter the palace for meetings. These five hundred soldiers would almost be bankrupt if a third-class baron were to take them out to the factory.
But this baron has enough foresight. If he can follow the king's army on his first expedition, he will soon be promoted to the eighth rank. Opportunities like this don't come around all the time. Only the first nobles to follow the king will receive generous rewards.
Salin is cohesive because he has enough mages, foreign aid like Rex, and he never begrudges profits. Whatever Salin can earn, he will definitely give it to the nobles he is close to.
Take Gu Ya as an example. She brought out the strength of her family and was able to stand on her own feet. But it still couldn't be compared with Salin. The number of mages around Salin was dozens of times that of hers.
Salin calculated in his mind that these nobles could send more than 25,000 troops. He would send another 100,000 troops, plus some supporting troops and auxiliary troops, which would be an army of more than 50,000 troops. If you weren't greedy, there would be no problem just defending Mars City.
There are only two cities near Mars City, and the three cities are connected together to form a barrier. There are also Rex's 5,000 troops in Huojiang City. Those 5,000 are elites, so defense is not a problem.
This time, it was justified. It would be impossible to drive him away in the future.
Saleen immediately asked Daniel to count the number of troops sent and the corresponding logistical equipment. Immediately contact Kushui County and find a way to mobilize Rex's 100,000 troops at the Garulan border.
Just have your own new city on the Garulan border. Saleen estimated that Rex would not want to attack in this direction, otherwise she would not attack Garulan from the path behind Kushui County.
At this time, Salin also understood the importance of nobility. After all, he is weak alone. With many nobles following him, he can form an army and go out at any time. Provide resources, magicians, and these nobles to fight for themselves. This is also the power structure model of various empires. The royal family has the strongest power, but it does not occupy all the interests.
But the situation in Salin is still tight, because for the construction of the new city, supplies cannot be compromised at all. The army sent to Phoenix will not be pieced together haphazardly. Salin is responsible for at least part of the equipment of the nobles. And he decided to send troops on his own, but he couldn't occupy the Guiyuan of the mercenary group.
Saleen has even distributed the equipment left by Rex. Many of these noble soldiers are also newly recruited. Without good equipment, the number of casualties will be confusing.
The alchemy factory is operating at full capacity in preparation for the Phoenix War. Salin will not go deep into Phoenix, let alone attack Sun City. Sun City is also a majestic city, the heart of Phoenix.
Let the people in Guderian City do this kind of thing. Therefore, Salin's equipment is still mainly defensive, but there are not many offensive weapons.
Rex's 5,000 men stationed at Mars City will not be captured so quickly. When his sixth battalion arrives, plus the soldiers of the Envoy Corps, there will be more than 100,000 people, which will be enough to form a strong defense. Hold on to Mars City for the time being, and as soon as your own army arrives, Rex's army will be completely safe.
Saleen still has more than 100,000 fourth-level magic cores in his hand, and these magic cores are also being cut hard. The cut pieces were given to Eleanor. Eleanor is now in Nanyuan, trying her best to cultivate magic plants.
Salin didn't know how she stored the magic seeds. Anyway, Salin didn't notice it at all when he captured Elinor last time. Now that Elinor has taken out all the magic seeds, terrifying plants are growing everywhere in Nanyuan.
The reason why I say terrifying is because the consumption of these plants is greater than that of Warcraft. What is watered every day is the nutrients prepared by the repairing water, as well as the magic core powder.
The one that Elinor cultivates most intensively is the Star Vine. This magical plant grows the fastest and is the material used to weave elf armor. Every day, Saleen used the offal of monsters in the warehouse as a nourishment and gave it to Elinor. Then at night, soldiers would be sent to harvest.
Of course, this kind of elf armor woven for soldiers will not look like the one worn by Shika, but it is also very convenient to wear. You can also put a layer of metal armor on top of the light elf armor, which is equivalent to heavy infantry equipment.
Chariots for transporting food and equipment are also being manufactured in large quantities. Qin Yin's baggage vehicles can be arranged into vehicle formations to deal with cavalry in the field. Therefore, the cost of building this kind of vehicle is not cheap. The structure of the vehicle body must be able to withstand the shock force when a heavy crossbow is fired.
Saleen distributed all his armor and equipment, then replenished the soldiers of the second battalion and re-equipped the elf armor. Fortunately, Elinor had been doing such a thing for a long time, otherwise Saleen would not have been able to do it within a week. Then the army was sent to Metatrin City.
What made Salin dumbfounded was that many nobles who were not rewarded by him also sent varying numbers of soldiers in their own names, asking Salin to be included in the expeditionary army. "Salin simply did not bring any troops with him. The army, composed of the nobles and the second battalion, totaled fifty-two thousand men.
These 52,000 people, led by the second battalion general, left Metatrin City in a mighty manner and set out for Phoenix. Their target is Mars City. As for the cities along the way, if they do not surrender, they will be destroyed directly. To be continued, D! ~!
