Next, Du Wuji went to talk to Duo Nan, and Duo Nan was very polite. He almost all agreed to Du Wu Ji's lion, and several Wu Zhan around Duo Nan were naturally very polite.
Unhappy and full of hostility, but when the powerful witch and murderer also appeared, no one dared to say anything. The power of the two witches and murderers joining forces is not simply one plus one equals two.
However, despite deliberately keeping a low profile, Lin Fengjin and the wild boar were regarded as followers of the evil witch. For Lin Fengjin, he felt that this was a good thing.
His original intention was to keep a low profile, make a fortune in silence, and cause as little trouble as possible, but for some reason, the big witch actually let his group join the army on the side of trouble. For Lin Fengjin
Isn't this just looking for trouble?
Perhaps in the eyes of others, the leader of Kuotaba, Duo Nan, is so powerful that he is the leader of a hundred villages, but in Lin Fengjin's eyes, this is really not worth mentioning!
A village is just a village. The so-called leader of a hundred villages is the leader of a hundred villages under his command. To survive in the poor mountains and rivers of western Xirong, people also need to stick together. Therefore, what is different from the mainland is that a leader in Xirong
The number of people in a small village is around 400, and in a large village there are more than 600 or 700 people. Calculated in this way, the number of people under Duonan's command can actually exceed 50,000.
------But so what? For Lin Fengjin, if nothing else, there are more than 50,000 innocent souls under Wuzuo City! Now that Sanli Department has been recuperating, its power has already expanded like a balloon.
Get up, Lin Fengjin gave an order, and more than 50,000 string control men were gathered. This was the most powerful cavalry in the war. If the 50,000 fine cavalry were used properly, they would be able to defeat ten times the enemy force.
It's not a whimsical thing, so it makes sense that Lin Fengjin wouldn't notice it.
However, Da Wuji is definitely not a person who is aimless. Lin Fengjin is also a calm person. After Du Wuji and Li Wuji went to negotiate the terms, after a while, three oxen came.
The car slowly stopped at the door of the inn. The climate in the west of Xirong is humid and hot, and the number of horses is very small. Therefore, most people use oxcarts. A group of people got on the oxcart and blended into the troubled team.
Heading towards the west.
When they were sleeping in the open at night, Du Wuji came to see Lin Fengjin. He said that this time the leader of Kuotaba was in trouble and had used all his strength. At this time, he went to the Daibo Valley ahead to fight with the others.
The conscripted tribal armies gathered together, and a total of nearly 8,000 warriors and ten war elephants were gathered to go to the northwest to fight the old enemy Lolota people.
Lin Fengjin did the math. Based on this difficult strength calculation, with a population of 50,000 to 60,000, he actually gathered 8,000 warriors. This has almost reached the limit, because among the population of 50,000 to 60,000, there are
Including old people and children. These eight thousand warriors almost emptied out all the men in the entire territory. It can be seen from this that the old enemies he faced, the Lolotas, were also regarded as formidable enemies.
According to Du Wuji, the Luoluota people live in a river valley with abundant water and grass and fertile fields. It can be said that they have bumper harvests every year. Their strength is not too strong, but even if the Luoluota people are against Xirong
For most people, they all belong to that kind of "ethnic minority", with very different customs, civilizations, and diets. Among them, there is a special being called "Nasufu"
". Existences such as priests or imams can also perform some powerful spells.
What is even more frightening is that when the Lolota people encountered famine, they even had the custom of coming here to hunt the Xirong people and cooking them as wild beasts! In their eyes, anyone who is not of the same race is
Not only humans, but also people can be eaten into the belly. Therefore, the cannibal tribe has a great reputation, and it can be said that it has an outstanding reputation.
Therefore, after Dounan realized that Duwuji was very tyrannical, he started to invite, because for Wuji, although he usually did not interfere in worldly affairs, when he met "others" with different beliefs, he
Often they still have the motivation and desire to fight.
The next morning, Li Wuji also successfully made the witchcraft brush and sand table. After these two things were made, there was nothing special about their appearance. The witchcraft brush was no different from an ordinary brush, except that the tip was made of wood.
It is cut and carved, and the sand table is a palm-sized box. Shake the box, then lay it flat and open it, and you can write on it with a witch pen.
Lin Fengjin was sitting on the bullock cart at this time. Anyway, he was bored, so he opened the box and started communicating with the big witch:
"Do we have any purpose in following them closely?"
After Lin Fengjin wrote this line of words in the sandbox, the writing automatically appeared below it:
"Yes, I have told you before that your safety seems to be in danger at this time and you are already in great danger. If you want to continue to go into details, it will be revealing the secret and you must find a special place.
"
Lin Fengjin wrote:
"This special place has something to do with the difficulty?"
The great witch said fiercely:
"Yes, I want to tell you clearly the ins and outs of this. Then the secret must be concealed. To do this, the required place must be a murderous place, and the number of casualties must be at least a thousand.
, in this way, with blood and resentment soaring into the sky, you can use your own hands to build a grudge-gathering witch formation, and at the same time cover this place with the blinding fog of your Xiao Yan Jiao, so that you can be blinded and isolated from the invasion of God's will, and you can talk freely. "
"Donan is already a very powerful force within a few hundred miles. If he goes to fight against the Luoluota people this time, it is possible to create a battlefield with thousands of casualties. If you miss him, you will probably have to wait for a long time.
Only then did you have this opportunity, and time is very precious to you now, so I asked you to follow the disaster and go to help."
"So you have to remember that in this battle, no matter how difficult it is, we must win but not lose. Otherwise, if the Luoluota people win, it is impossible for them to send people to help us build the Grudge Gathering Witch Array! Secondly, this battle must not be possible.
To win quickly, we must make the battle situation stalemate and win miserably in the end! The more people die on the battlefield, the better, and the Grudge Gathering Witch Formation will be stronger."
Looking at the request of the Great Witch, Lin Fengjin thought that the customs here in Xirong were indeed so cruel. In the eyes of the Great Witch, it seemed that human life was not taken seriously at all, but when he thought about it, there were even people from the Queen Mother of the West.
The custom of sacrifice can be understood immediately.
However, what the Great Witch Fierce said is simple. And the strength of both sides of the battle seems to be very strong. For example, Donan has seven or eight thousand people under his command, and the opponent's Lolota people must not be less than this number. The total number of combatants is close to
Ten thousand and fifty-six, it seems that it is not difficult to create a battlefield with a death toll of one thousand people.
But in fact, Lin Fengjin, who is proficient in warfare, knows that this is actually a very difficult thing to do.
Why do you say that? Because you have to take a look at who are the people under Dou Nan. Among these seven or eight thousand "warriors", only the main direct lineage around Dou Nan are the kind of elite professional soldiers. The rest
They are all hunters and young men in the village. As for the main direct lineage team under Duan Nian, there are only five or six hundred people in the sky, and the rest can only be described as a mob.
And even among these rabble, there are only less than 3,000 people who can go into battle to kill the enemy. The rest are used as transport troops and auxiliary troops, and their purpose is to set up camps, carry luggage, etc. When the overall situation has been decided,
They can rush forward and beat up the drowned dog. Once there is a head-on confrontation, the fighting will and fighting toughness of these hunters and Qingzhuang can only be described as zero!
At this time, in Lin Fengjin's concept, under normal circumstances, an army that can withstand 40% of casualties and still continue to fight can be called an elite in a hundred battles. Even if it is placed among the five countries, it is a strong army and can withstand
An army that can continue to fight despite 30% casualties can be called an elite.
The current situation of most of the armies of the five countries is that once they suffer 20% to 25% casualties, they will break up and flee. This is already the level of professional soldiers who are completely out of work and receive regular training! And
Remember, what we are talking about here is casualties. It means losing combat effectiveness and being unable to move. It does not mean that you are completely dead.
At this time, Lin Fengjin felt that the five or six hundred direct subordinates under Duo Nan were elites at best. The remaining three thousand people who could follow them into battle could only be said to be a rabble. Or even a rabble.
They are praised because these people are organized into villages, and a village is a group of people. The army formed by such a small group with selfish motives can only be described as collapse at the first touch.
Therefore, it is not difficult to infer from this that under normal circumstances, in this war between Donan and the Lolotas, the total casualties on both sides will probably not exceed 500 people, so there will probably be
One party completely breaks up and escapes, and then the other party pursues it one after another. This is also the most common war pattern among Xirong. We should expect such a low-intensity war to be as brutal as a meat grinder. To be honest
, it’s really whimsical.
No matter how powerful Lin Fengjin was, in such a short period of time, after much deliberation, he could only use the hands of Wu Ji or Wu Ji to improve the morale of the friendly forces.
Let them become more willing to fight after going into battle.
However, if the battle situation is really in a stalemate as the great witch said, then not only will the morale of Dojo's side be greatly increased, but the fighting will of the opponent's army will also be improved at the same time.
To be able to achieve his goal, Lin Fengjin is indeed not powerful enough to not only greatly increase the morale of friendly troops, but also double the morale of enemy troops. To be honest, this is really the domain of gods, not humans.
category.
After getting the reply from the Great Witch Fierce, Lin Fengjin thought hard for a long time, and even thought about how difficult it would be to win and fake the password. In the end, he shook his head in despair, feeling that there was still no possibility of success. After all, he wanted to fight a bloody battle.
The premise depends on whether the other party is willing to cooperate. If the Rolotas on the opposite side have the ability to fight to the death and fight to the end, they must have become famous in the surrounding area. If they can stop the children from crying at night, how can they be attacked many times?
How difficult is it to bully such a "cowardly" army?
"If that's the case..." Lin Fengjin pondered while raising his middle finger and gently tapping it slowly on the wooden railing next to the carriage.
"I think what the Great Witch Fierce means is that a lot of people will die. It doesn't have to be a stalemate war to have a lot of people die. There is another situation that can also lead to a lot of people dying...
And in my opinion, it would be easier to achieve the goal, but why does he only think about the stalemate in the war?"
This is the principle of "a ruler is short and an inch is long".
Although the Great Witch and Fierce has lived for a long time, he has never dabbled in the art of weapons and battle formations, and knows nothing about it, because this principle is profound and profound. It is difficult to achieve great success, but he still knows the way of the Great Witch and Fierce.
It's of no use at all.
Under such circumstances, it is normal for the great wizard to be untrained in military affairs. In his thinking, his understanding of war is still the concept of "war is dangerous and dangerous" and "killing people to fill the field". He thinks that many people will die in war, but
In fact, a real bloody battle requires that the morale and strength of both sides are close, and they must be elite. It does not mean that you can fight a bloody battle if you want to.
***
Three days later, Duannan gathered all the strength of his subordinates and began to move towards the rich valley area of the Luoluota people. However, after walking forward for less than half a day, he had just reached the sphere of influence of the Luoluota people.
Nearby, the way was completely blocked.
This is actually a matter of course, because no matter who it is, they definitely don't want the battlefield where the two armies are fighting to be in their own homeland. In that case, even if they defeat the enemy, their homeland will be ruined.
The Luoluota people seemed to be well aware of the coming disaster. Therefore, the battlefield they chose was by a river called Kuantuo River. They camped on the north bank of the river. The disaster on the south bank can be said to be different
They are facing each other across the river. The surface of the Kuantuo River is not wide, only about ten meters, and the water flows slowly. The water is only waist deep, but why do the Luoluota people regard this river as a river?
What about the natural moat to defend?
The reason is very simple. The Kuantuo River floods frequently, so within hundreds of meters on both sides of the river, there is a harsh terrain like a swamp. If a person steps on it, the black and smelly silt can sink into the river.
Even if it rains, there will be at most half a foot of water on the muddy ground, making sailing a boat extremely difficult, let alone transporting soldiers.
In this case, once an attack is ordered to be launched, one has to let the sergeants trained and trained through hard work go forward, trudge through the swamps on both sides of the river, cross the river, and endure patiently during the process of crossing the river.
Harassment by Rolota people.
In the end, when these sergeants who were covered in stinking mud and were impatient went ashore, they still had to use their tired soldiers to launch an offensive against the Rolotas who were waiting for work. Ahem, under the situation where the strength of the two sides was not much different, it was almost impossible.
It's an impossible task.
However, it is probably because the Luoluota people have demonstrated their tactic of blocking the river and defending it more than once, so it seems that Dounan was well prepared for the current situation, so he brought powerful troops that had never appeared in the Central Plains.
That is the war elephant. The food and grass consumed by the ten accompanying war elephants every day is enough to supply two to three hundred people. For the war elephants, the muddy riverside depressions in front of them can toss humans to death.
It's just a shallow mud pit that you can walk over.
Therefore, the way to fight this battle in Douban is actually very simple, that is, the whole army sets off first, and comes to the edge of the Rolota people's long-range attack, and then ten war elephants suddenly rush forward to fight for the next army advance.
Time, if the Lolotas can quickly take care of the war elephant, then the many difficult people will definitely lose this battle. If the Lolotans are entangled by the war elephant and disrupt their position, then they
He will face the end of complete defeat.
So do the Rolotas have the ability to quickly defeat the ten war elephants? The answer is of course, because among them, there are also more than a dozen "Nasu Fathers" who believe in the Father God. These people hold Bayeux in their left hands.
After all, the monk holding the skull staff in his right hand is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Therefore, this is the time to test the witch war under the leader of trouble, as well as the strength of Duwuji and Liwuji he invited. The task assigned by the leader of trouble is not to ask them to die, but to
Delay as much time as possible, and a war elephant carries an astonishing load. The elephant can carry ten people on its back, and when moving forward, it can also pull two large rafts, and the large rafts can transport ten or twenty people, so
If so, there were three to four hundred elites arriving at the front of the battlefield together with the war elephants, so it was not really about pushing people into the fire pit.
At this time, ten huge war elephants were sucking water through their noses, spraying it on their thick and wrinkled skin, and chewing tender sugar cane sprinkled with salt in their mouths. Under the scolding of the elephant slaves, they were tamed.
They half knelt down, and the people next to them were preparing to tie them up with the ropes connected to the raft. The leader, Duo Nian, seemed to be calmly looking at the distant river bank, but his face was flushed and slightly thick.
and rapid breathing revealed his mood at this time.
At this time, Du Wuji slowly walked over to the leader, Duan Nan, and then pointed in a hoarse voice:
"I dare to ask the leader, why is this?"
The direction Du Wuji pointed in was the ten war elephants who were preparing to put ropes on ropes to pull the raft. The leader Duo Nan said in shock:
"The river beach is full of mud and swamps, so we need to send warriors forward and drag them with war elephants." (To be continued)
