Therefore, in the past few days, Feiying Village has begun large-scale preparations for the battle against the Lion King Territory, and various supplies have begun to be prepared. The so-called soldiers and horses go first without using food and grass. For such a large-scale battle, logistical supplies are very important.
In addition to the excellent training and equipment of soldiers, the reason why the United States was able to have a strong offensive during World War II, and successful management thinking also played a vital role.
It is precisely because of his excellent management and coordination ability that Eisenhower was able to become the commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces and plan a large-scale battle like the Normandy landing.
However, the information about these materials was sent out by Xiao Yu long ago, and they arrived at the Lion King's territory to prepare for the battle.
When Xiao Yu came, it was naturally impossible not to leave a channel for information transmission, otherwise, what if something happened to Lion King City
He let Tyrande lurk in a place nearby, waiting for Xiao Yu to deliver news every night. Tyrande has a leopard, which is extremely mobile, and most people can't catch up with her. Moreover, she can be invisible in shadowy places like the woods, so it is the most suitable to serve as a message.
Xiao Yu has powerful skills such as Wind Walk, Teleportation, and Heroic Leap. At night, Feiying Village is absolutely free to come and go. No one can stop him after thinking about it, so it is very easy to send messages.
Through the transmission of these news, Lion King City already knew the specific situation of Feiying Village's attack, the strength, supplies, and heavy weapons, and they were well aware of it, and made preparations for the battle according to Xiao Yu's instructions in advance.
Although the number of bandits united this time is very large, reaching a huge army of more than 100,000 people, but now the Lion King is no longer what it used to be. The various arms are more and more complete, and there are two more heroes than before. , or a supporting hero. The levels of various arms have also been greatly improved. Some orc infantry have even reached level 8, and most of the arms are already above level 3, with one or two of their own skills. With the money, Xiao Yu replaced all the soldiers with second-level equipment, and the combat effectiveness was not a little bit improved. Xiao Yu also recruited 500 orcs from outside, adding another force.
Moreover, in addition to the troops in the base, the regular army of the Lion King has reached 10,000 people. Although it is not considered an elite soldier because of the short time, under Xiao Yu's powerful reward policy, these The morale of the soldiers was high, like wolves and tigers, eager to go somewhere and chop off a few heads immediately and turn them in so that they could be rewarded.
Even if they die, their families can be treated absolutely kindly without any worries. In this case, the combat effectiveness of soldiers has been greatly improved subjectively.
With these troops and correct command, by defending the city against 100,000 bandits who are not regular troops, there is at least a 70% chance of winning.
Of course, this was the thinking of Long Hui and Mu Huali, and Xiao Yu's thinking was that these hundred thousand people must be killed this time. After killing him, his meritorious service value can probably reach a higher rank, and he can upgrade a main base to level 2, the arms of the second-level main base, but he is looking forward to it very much.
In fact, the gap between him and a higher rank is not very large. As long as he kills a few more people, he should be able to be promoted.
So, after a month of preparation, an army of more than 100,000 bandits set off in a big way, preparing to crush the lion king's territory.
Encouraged by Xie Sanlang's policy, all the village owners were in high spirits, gearing up, and all wanted to take this opportunity to make a fortune.
Xie Sanlang recently clarified the specific number of rewards, like how many people were beheaded in a battle, how many people were lost, reported, and then rewarded according to the proportion.
The clarification of the numbers made these robbers more aware of how much money they could get for killing as many people as possible, so they did not spare their brothers, because the compensation for the death of a person was definitely far more than that of a robber soldier.
Only those who explained Xie Sanlang's conspiracy through Leibao could understand that these compensations seem to be very generous, and it is an opportunity to make a fortune, but in terms of the whole, it is Xie Sanlang who benefits in the end.
If they were all lost, Xie Sanlang would still get all the money back in the end.
There is a pile of gold in front of you, you can get it with your hand, but you also know that this gold is poisonous, if you take it, you may die, at this time, you will think about it.
However, greed is human nature. Although some village owners who have been analyzed by Lei Bao know about Xie Sanlang's conspiracy, they still think that if they have the opportunity, they can kill some of them without losing many people. People in the lion king collar can get some rewards, just be careful and don't lose too much.
This is the so-called man-made money, dead birds die for food.
Knowing that gold is poisonous, I still have to find a way to pick it up.
Therefore, these schemes of Xie Sanlang are not incomprehensible. You will be fooled even if you know it is a conspiracy.
This also proves that these village owners are short-sighted and low-sighted, and they are not on the same level as Xie Sanlang.
The army set off mightily towards the Lion King's collar, and Xiao Yu set off with a thousand heavy cavalry shortly after they left. Four hundred and fifty of these heavy cavalry were his own knights, and the other five hundred and fifty were transferred to Xiao Yu by Xie Sanlang.
At the beginning, Xie Sanlang also wanted to divide Xiao Yu's 450 knights into three heavy cavalry teams, so as to distract Xiao Yu's original loyalty from these cavalry teams.
But Xiao Yu brought these knights back through the fight with Leibao. Xie Sanlang mediated several times, but Xiao Yu never compromised.
Xie Sanlang later felt that Xiao Yu's four hundred and fifty people would not be able to cause any disturbances, and anyone who brought his own people to the cottage to be divided would be suspicious.
Therefore, Xie Sanlang acquiesced in allowing Xiao Yu to lead the original 450 knights.
Xie Sanlang saw very far, so he would not argue with Xiao Yufei whether the four hundred and fifty people were completely dispersed. Because after all, this is not a force that can threaten him. If there are thousands of people, Xie Sanlang will definitely not allow it.
Although Xiao Yu walked behind, because the cavalry must be much faster than the infantry, he quickly overtook them, and headed towards the direction of the lion king first. , and also carried large siege equipment, so most of them were infantry, and they walked slowly.
Xiao Yu's action was also approved by Xie Sanlang, so even if someone saw it, they would not have any doubts.
Within a few days, Xiao Yu was already within thirty miles of the Lion King's Territory.
Xiao Yu looked at the nearby terrain, and said to the heavy cavalry under him: "There is a hillside over there, less than ten miles away from the Lion King City, and there is a dense forest on it, which is the most suitable for hiding, and observe the battle below, we will go there .”
These words of Xiao Yu were actually mainly for the five hundred and fifty other heavy cavalry. Xiao Yu also told them the purpose of coming here this time, that is to watch the battle and experience the atmosphere of a large-scale battle. , not to participate in the war, just find a place to stay and watch.
The reason why Xie Sanlang was relieved that Xiao Yu would come out was also because there were five hundred and fifty people following Xiao Yu, and he was not afraid of Xiao Yu's tricks.
At that moment, Xiao Yu led these people towards the high slope. The vicinity of the Lion King's Territory was originally full of undulating hills and complex terrain. Only a large area in front of the Lion King's Territory was completely empty, so you could see at a glance whether there were any traces of other people's activities in front of it.
This was also the strategic consideration when the city was first built.
After Xiao Yu brought the knights to the dense forest, he let the cavalry rest here, and he went out to investigate the situation himself.
Heavy cavalry wear heavy armor, so it is definitely not suitable to be a scout. Xiao Yu is not here to fight this time, so he only wears leather armor. He rides fast, so he is suitable to be a scout to investigate the situation.
Originally, if he was with a large army, there must have been light cavalry scouts, but now he brought these people to watch the battle, and it was far away from the lion king's territory, so there was no need for scouts, he just went out to scout by himself up.
When Xiao Yu lectured these heavy cavalry, one of the lessons he taught them was that as a commander on the battlefield, he must personally scout out the terrain in advance and know the situation in the combat area well. Otherwise, he would definitely not be able to command the battle perfectly.
Xiao Yu's theory was also approved by Xie Sanlang.
In fact, this is also one of Rommel's military theories. Before each battle, Rommel must take a helicopter to observe the terrain of the combat area in person before launching an attack.
For this reason, he was almost defeated by the British army and his own people several times.
Now, this theory has become an excuse for Xiao Yu to leave.
These knights, Xiao Yu doesn't plan to use them in this battle, and he can't use them, because if he uses them, he will definitely be discovered. As long as he himself can return to the Lion King's territory and use the soldiers in the city to defend the city, he will definitely no problem.
What he needs is just an excuse, how to not be with these knights when the battle happens.
And these excuses, he must have thought of them long ago.
A big battle is about to begin.
