After the officers and soldiers of the two divisions heard Li Cong's order under such circumstances, none of them paused. They threw down the things in their hands and immediately rushed forward. Although they ran over, their speed was very limited.
They are not very fast, and everyone knows that they cannot run too fast at this time. The most important thing at this time is their queue. If they can ensure their queue, there will definitely be no problem in the past, although there will be casualties.
It may be bigger, but their lethality will also increase very quickly in the future. Now this war is no longer something that both sides can stop. For any party, as long as he wants to end the battle, then
You must admit that you are not as good as others. The army of the Western Empire is indeed stronger than the army of the Southern Empire. At least they will not be so easy to do nothing when facing heavy losses. For all this
They all understand very well, and the senior officials of the Western Empire understand very well that if it is really pushed out at this time, there may not be any resistance organized in the future. Li Cong has the same idea. This Western Empire
People are really not very restless. These guys are not afraid of casualties at all. It is because of this that I feel that I can't deal with them. If it is on the Southern Empire, I guess the Southern Empire now
The generals have long ordered their people to retreat. In fact, this matter cannot be blamed on others. The people of the Western Empire resisted fiercely mainly because the situation here is different from that over there. This is the capital of the attack.
, Besides... their entire empire did not suffer any other damage. Li Cong came directly to the capital. The shock was not small, but the resistance was also greater.
The people of the Western Empire were indeed very afraid of Li Cong's direct attack on their capital, but soon they were no longer afraid. They had a more important thing, which was to kill Li Cong's army.
Let the people in the Cao Family Trading Company know that they are actually completely different from the people in the Southern Empire. What you encounter in the Southern Empire will never happen to me, and we will definitely not be afraid of you.
Maybe there are some things that you don't really believe in. But sometimes this is something that you have to believe. Now what the Western Emperor's team of hundreds of millions has to do is to make Li Cong believe that all of this is true.
Their troops came up one after another, and the corpses were already piled up like mountains. But they still didn't retreat a little. The troops from Cao's Trading Company had already rushed up. This time the impact was about ten
times, so the Western Empire also sent about five million troops to greet the Cao Family Trading Company's army. When their army arrived, a series of artillery shells came directly over. They all saw clearly that the Western Empire
The position of the Imperial Navy is already full of warships from the Cao Family Trading Company. The people of the Western Empire's Army are all desperate, but the Western Empire's Navy is so embarrassing that they started without any resistance at all.
After retreating, they are now retreating to the place where they started. This place has all been occupied by the navy of Cao Family Trading Company. These naval ships have boldly arrived at the shore. They can also give Cao Family Trading Company
The army provided great support, and the navy's artillery rained down here like rain. Millions of troops were in chaos under their bombing. No matter what their commanders said, it was of no use.
In fact, this is the difference between the artillery of the navy and the army. In addition to their different calibers, the navy's artillery is larger in number and more coherent. They are simply resting when they attack the ground, because they do not have the same caliber.
If you need to adjust any coordinates, just fire the cannonball hard in a general direction. Anyway, that direction is basically full of people from the Western Empire. Whether it kills people or other things, there is no problem.
Things, sometimes some things are still different from before, but I don’t care about this anymore. The little energy that the Western Empire’s army just exerted seems to be a little bit gone at this time. Good guys, theirs
There must be at least hundreds of naval artillery approaching, and there will even be more in the future. Look at the shells landing on this position, but there are many more than just now, at least they are all
There are twice as many. If possible, the people they want to kill most are not the people from the Cao Family Trading Company. They all want to kill their own navy first. If you can hold on for a little longer, we will also
We can hold on for a while longer. It's better now. We have no chance at all. Their artillery is so powerful. After five million people went up, they couldn't even hold on for half an hour. As for the archers, they were even worse.
It is the target of these artillery strikes. They are all starting to get scared. How many artillery shells do the people of Cao's Trading Company have? If we continue here, they will definitely not stop the artillery fire. Look at them.
You can tell by the look on his face. Many people thought of running away at this time. As for what their commander said in the beginning, they don't remember.
Boom! A shell exploded in the heavy infantry phalanx in front. Dozens of surrounding heavy infantry flew out in a bloody mess. A group of infantry behind quickly rushed up. Their role is
Come as a human shield to prevent the Cao Family Trading Company's troops from rushing up. What they want to protect are the archers behind them, and only those people can cause harm to the people of the Cao Family Trading Company. In fact, at this time they
They have also become more or less aware of some things. For example, they are all very dangerous now. Just now, there were not so many brothers in trouble. At that time, there were only about one-third of them. But now, if there are still
If there are the first batch of heavy infantry coming up, you can look back at the people around you. I'm sorry, you don't know anyone around you at this time, because they are all just coming up. How many of them are there?
Replenishment has come four or five times at my personal position. Many recruits in front were shouting because in front of them, many soldiers from the Cao Family Trading Company were killed by bows and arrows falling from the sky.
They are very happy about this kind of thing. Because they have never seen that the Cao Family Trading Company's army can be so useless and the mortality rate can be so high, but some of the veterans here understand it.
Yes, such a thing is basically impossible. Just now, more people from the Cao Family Trading Company died. Now compared with just now, it seems that there are not even half of them. What is going on?
?If there were a few powerful people among them, they might have seen what was going on behind them. In the archer camp behind them, there were more dead people than on their side. Much more.
After observing the situation on the battlefield for about five minutes, Li Cong basically understood what was going on. The ones who caused the most damage to the Cao Family Trading Company's army were the archers in the back, and the heavy ones in the front.
The heavy infantry just looks more powerful, but the real situation is that they are not that good. If they continue to attack these heavy infantry, then they will really be fighting a war of attrition with the people of the Western Empire. If
He would not be afraid of supplies or anything like that. There were too many things in his inner world, but what he saw in front of him made him understand. What he was consuming was his own, and this was the most important thing.
The problem is that we must not fight such a war of attrition with the Western Empire. Even if we have to attrition, we have to keep these people, so Li Cong let the artillery bypass these heavily armored soldiers on the first side. These people
The casualties to the Cao Family Trading Company are almost negligible. These people are just human shields. The greatest threat to the Cao Family Trading Company is the archers behind them. If there were not those people, it would probably not be possible.
Such a situation will happen, so as long as they can be killed, the battle may stop, because a country cannot have so many archers. Everyone knows that an archer can train at least three
The main reason for the four warriors is that it costs too much to train these archers. It is impossible for an empire to be so stupid as to not want warriors and only need archers. Although this may increase the combat effectiveness of the entire empire.
, but what should we do in terms of quantity? This is definitely a no-go. Everyone knows that quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. Everyone is also very clear about this and will not act recklessly.
The archers behind the Western Empire immediately felt the pressure. Just now, they could hold on for at least five minutes with 30,000 people in a square formation, but now there are not many people who can almost fire five or six arrows by themselves.
, this time also means that their square formation is no longer of much use, and a new square formation will come up at this time, but how many people have they killed? Although they do not know the specific number,
But I also know that it is definitely not as much as before. What is going on? How could such a thing happen? Archers rarely endured hardships in the past, especially on the battlefield.
Their hands were used to hit the enemy, so they were not very comfortable with being beaten like this. They also felt that many things were coming towards them. When the fifteenth phalanx came up
At that time, a general ran over and told Prince Ding that their archer phalanx had basically been lost, and the remaining people were on the other side of the river. If they wanted to get all those people over, it would take a long time.
It may be too late, and it is impossible for them to cross the river. There is no bridge on the river, and there is no such thing in this world, because there is no such large heavy machinery in this world. For
For them, they all rely on ferrying things like this, but can they take this thing now? What the general means is that their method may no longer go forward, because now the people of the Cao Family Trading Company have
All their archers have been killed. If this continues, the only ones left will be guys with two swords. They will definitely be even more useless and die faster.
"Asshole, how could it be lost so quickly? Don't we have nearly half a million archers here? How could it be lost so quickly? Even if there are so many animals, it is impossible for the people of the Cao Family Trading Company to kill them.
So fast." Prince Ding cursed as soon as he opened his mouth. At this time, he was looking happily from the tower, because this guy could see the situation at the Cao Family Trading Company from his position. He had already seen it.
Hundreds of soldiers from the Cao Family Trading Company were killed in this round of attacks. I heard before that if the people of the Southern Empire wanted to kill hundreds of soldiers from the Cao Family Trading Company, they would have to pay a price of tens of thousands of people.
. He knew that people on his side were also dying, but the proportion would never be as high as this. Now is the time for them to harvest. The most important thing now is not to stop such an attack. They must let the Cao family
If the people of the trading company realize their own shortcomings, the war may be won or lost today, and the entire empire will not be able to sustain it for a long time. Although the number of dead people is not as high as that of the Southern Empire, it is still very powerful, Prince Ding.
After scolding, he understood in his heart. He took a look at the archer position over there. People were being blown up one after another. It seemed that the commander of the Cao Family Trading Company was not a fool. They understood the current situation very well.
, knowing that attacking the heavy infantry outside was of no use at all. These guys began to attack the archers behind. Of course he knew what the two swords the general was talking about were about. They
In the past, they were just ordinary warriors. If they were to be archers, besides wasting all the bows and arrows, they would not have any good effect. After all, they were not trained normally.
Prince Ding was also in a dilemma at this time. If the infantry were allowed to act as archers, these people might as well not be able to pass. It is estimated that the heavy infantry in front would not be able to withstand it. Suddenly he thought of the river reaching this point.
There are still archers on the side, that is, the imperial guards. There are about 40,000 people, so it is better to let them go up. But it only takes ten minutes to go up with tens of thousands of people, and not many things can be solved at all.
, Besides, each of these Imperial City guards has a background, either a martial arts champion or something, or someone with some background in the family. There is no problem in letting children from ordinary people's families go out to do this, but it can't be done now.
, if these imperial city guards died like that, even if they were princes, it would not be easy to explain. Just like the Royal Guards Cavalry Corps in the Southern Empire, if something like that happened, the entire Southern Empire would be in disarray.
Are you also shocked? Many people did not resist so strongly because of this incident. These people are also a little angry. How come their own children were sent to the battlefield? Not only did they pass, some died, and some
The luckier one was that he was captured by people from the Cao Family Trading Company. Life after going back was not very easy. I heard that those who went back now started fighting with those who are now in power at home. This is not true.
Regarding the matter of methods, they used to be the most elite disciples of the family. Just because of being captured, they will no longer be able to do it in the future. The big families who are making trouble now are in a hurry. At the beginning, he was still because of this.
Things made fun of people in the Southern Empire, but now they didn't expect that the situation would turn around and it would be on their side, and they no longer had the courage to make that decision. It was really embarrassing.
If they are asked to go up, the empire will fall into great instability in the future, but if they are not allowed to go up, this front will collapse immediately. Thinking of this, he glanced ahead and realized that he did not have that much power now.
This kind of thing is not something that I can decide. I released the flying monster in my hand. This level six monster quickly flew towards the palace. It is better for the emperor to make a decision on such a matter. In fact, he chose this path.
It was already a failure. If he had directly ordered these imperial guards to enter the position, he might still be able to catch up. However, it would take half an hour for this thing to be in the hands of the emperor, for the emperor to give the order, and for them to enter.
Time has passed. At that time, it was of no use at all. Li Cong will not give you such a long preparation time. Your heavy infantry will need to add 20,000 people in almost ten minutes. If the bows and arrows behind
If we don't launch at all, this time will be shortened even more. By then, our people will be able to rush over more easily. Li Cong is very clear about such things, and he is not a fool. If
If you can seize this opportunity, the hundreds of thousands of people who died today will have a good home. If there is no such result, these people will probably die here in vain today. Li Cong thinks
By the time they arrived at the boat that brought the bodies, they had already gone back a lot. According to the rules of the Cao family business, these people had to send the ashes to their families after sparking fire. If there was no one at home, their martyrs would be sent to them.
In the cemetery, this also makes everyone in the army feel the atmosphere. This is also a very important thing, but in the eyes of the Western Empire, it is a waste of transportation capacity.
"Li Li, you personally take the remaining two divisions that have landed. Now you must break through this defense line for me. Remember, this is your first war. I hope you can win this line for me."
Defense line, many people say that our family members have not appeared on the battlefield for a long time, how about it? Are you scared?" Li Cong looked at his grandson and said, because the troops he brought were too limited. These dozen
The casualties of the tens of thousands of troops were already very high. Besides, because the area of the beachhead was too small, many soldiers on the ship could not get down quickly. More than half of the Cao Family Trading Company's troops on land had already gone up.
Let Li Cong take the remaining two divisions. Basically, there are less than three regiments of troops left here, and the rest have all gone up. Li Cong is now desperate. If the war cannot be won, he will
There can be another chance. But his grandson only has this life. Although Li Cong has a lot of elixirs now, there is no one that can bring him back to life. If Li Cong is seriously injured, of course Li Cong will
I have the ability to save this guy, but if he really dies, it is absolutely impossible. Such a thing is impossible in any world. No one can resurrect the dead.
No one can do such a thing. Li Cong's decision to make such a decision is also a test for himself. He doesn't know whether what he did is right or not, but the only thing he knows is that he must be like that now.
You have done it, otherwise you would really be sorry for your own troops. Why can others sacrifice their lives for your hegemony? Is your grandson really that precious? How is this different from those of the royal family?
"Grandpa, don't worry. My grandson is now a sixth-level warrior and has the ability to save his own life on the battlefield. Moreover, I was born in the Li family. It can be said that I have not made any contribution to the family for so many years. My
My father also achieved everything he has now on the battlefield. I also hope that I can achieve everything on the battlefield, and I hope my grandfather can see me return victorious." This boy is the same as his father.
How much nonsense did he get on his horse? He was going to lead a cavalry division and an infantry division. Naturally, he had to ride his tall horse to the front of the cavalry division. Li Cong saw this guy charging forward on a fast horse.
After that, I was a little worried, but my grandson will be an eagle in the future and should not live under his protection like a chicken. If this is the case, these family properties will definitely be lost in the future.
If it cannot exist in his hands, this guy will definitely be a prodigal son. It is only possible to let this guy know how hard-won these properties in your family are. Over time, you will all understand this.
How on earth is going on, so that you can know how much you should cherish this family property. Li Yi rode to the cavalry division and read out Li Cong's order. The commander of the cavalry division also looked at Li Cong's tent in surprise. This
Are you mistaken? The war now is different from that of the Southern Empire. The death rate was not very high at that time, but it is different now. The death rate here is frighteningly high. It is almost
It was almost 50%. The boss wanted to let the boy in front of him go? Wouldn't it cost his life? However, the military order was overwhelming, so he immediately went to assemble the team.
The one who has been following Li Li is a level 10 monster, blue-eyed blue tiger. It can be said that he is one of the two remaining monsters. This guy and his wife used to be level 9 monsters. A few years ago, they followed him.
After marrying Li Cong, that is, when Li Cong was refining elixirs in the Warcraft Mountains, he became a level 10 monster. Such ability was indeed given to him by Li Cong, so he would do his best for any task Li Cong gave him.
He tried his best to complete it. Originally, he was going to go with Li Yi this time. After all, he has been responsible for Li Yi's safety since Li Yi arrived on this planet. In the past, as long as someone wanted to take advantage of Li Yi
, if he releases his breath even slightly, he will probably get out immediately. You must know that Li Yi is a descendant of Li Cong. This is definitely not a secret. The common people don't know it, but the high-level people know it.
There are definitely a lot of them. A prince of the empire will encounter thousands of assassinations in his life. Li Li's status is much more important than that of the prince of the empire. There are many people who want to kidnap or assassinate this kid.
Many people can afford a lot of money. They don't care about this small amount of money. They just hope to see Li Cong sad. It is precisely because of the existence of this guy that Li Cong doesn't need it at all.
I am worried about the safety of my grandson. If it were not for this guy, I don’t know how I would live my life. I would definitely have to take this kid with me everywhere. When Li Li went out just now, he looked like a green tiger with blue eyes.
Just wanting to follow him out, Li Cong quickly stopped this guy. On the one hand, he needed to let this guy go out and experience real danger. In a country where level 10 monsters are not allowed to appear on the battlefield, private protection is no problem. This
No way.
Prince Ding was anxiously waiting for news from the palace. But as this time came, there was less and less news. This really made them feel helpless. No one in the palace knew how to do things.
Why didn't they know how to pass the news back as quickly as possible? In fact, the emperor of the Western Empire also scolded Prince Ding to death. Why didn't they know to leave more archers at the beginning? Now they actually want the emperor to
City guards. This is not to deny them to you. They are indeed very important, but there is another point that must be considered. They are not ordinary people. Although the number is not very large, one-tenth of the officials and children of the empire are
Here, they usually just guard the imperial city. At most, they can just call a group of people to act as bodyguards when the emperor or prince goes out. But going to the battlefield is something they can only dream about.
They wouldn't have thought of it, because they all know that really dangerous things like that won't happen to them. They can do some more public things, such as speculators or military performances. They all do this.
The reason is very, because after such things, they will have some merits, and they all rely on these things to rise, but let them really use their heads to fight, right, this matter
We will never do it. Even if we do it, it is unlikely to have any effect. No one will want us to go, including their family members. Just when they are still hesitating, the main reason is
While His Majesty the Emperor was hesitating, Li Yi's cavalry division and infantry division over there had already been assembled, and Prince Ding was also doing something about it.
This is a moment that determines victory or defeat, and Prince Ding himself knows it very clearly. If he can stop them, the war may be won, and he will become the first person to defeat the Western Empire.
Yes, even His Majesty the Emperor cannot stop him from taking over the military power. Of course, he will never do anything to rebel, but his dozen sons and dozens of grandsons are all protected. As long as they are
If he becomes the Minister of the Military, then their path will be much smoother in the future. As long as they can enter the army, each of them may have the title of earl when they finally come out. How can they be mixed with a general?
It’s no problem. When the time comes, this lineage of the royal family will be the most outstanding lineage besides the main lineage. This kind of thing will definitely be very satisfying. Who will be the next emperor?
If you come to Dang, you will also have the right to speak, and your children and grandchildren will live a very good life in the future. But these are just your beautiful imaginations. What you have to do now is how to get over the things in front of you. If
If the things at hand are not solved well, it is estimated that such a beautiful thing will not happen. There are already very few people in the Cao Family Trading Company on land. As long as they cannot break through this line of defense, then the two hundred people they have prepared will
A cavalry regiment of ten thousand people can rush over and give them some powerful ones. If you are lucky, you can drive them all into the water. At that time, you will be a great hero of the empire, and you can use this
The victorious pace drove the people from the Cao Family Trading Company out. Thinking of such a thing, Prince Ding would have an idiotic smile on his face. Every time something like this happened, the people next to him would roll their eyes.
Li Li himself was not a reckless boy. He knew the reason why his grandfather asked him to come. Unexpectedly, the brothers of the cavalry division saw that their leader was no longer the division commander, and their flags had also changed.
It is an eagle, which shows that such a flag can only be seen when Li Cong personally leads the army. Although Li Cong did not lead the army personally today, it is his descendant. As for whether it is his son or grandson, it is not up to them.
If the Cao family's trading company belonged to an empire, then they would be the Imperial Guards now. Li Cong would not bother with them about such matters. Li Li also saw the meaning in their eyes at this moment,
He said loudly, "Have you seen the defense line in front? I told you, the infantry can't rush through. What we need is our cavalry. They say that the cavalry of our Cao Family Trading Company is relatively weak, but now you all look at your bodies."
Armor, look at the war horses you boast about, look at the steel swords and hand crossbows in your hands, none of them are worse than others. You are the only one among the cavalry of the four empires, and I am already with you.
I have asked for permission above, as long as you can follow me and rush through the front line of defense, from the next moment you will be the Guards of the Cao Family Trading Company. You also know that there are only ten divisions of the Guards at present, and that is all
You have to have military exploits. Are you going to follow me to become the 11th Guards Division today, or are you just a bunch of cowards. It’s of no use at all. I don’t know this. You need to see your own performance, now.
Let me see what you are capable of." His words were very inflammatory, even more powerful than what Li Cong said just now. Just look at the excited expressions on the soldiers' faces and you will know that they really want to
Crazy.
There are not many cavalry in the Cao Family Trading Company. Take this time as an example, only such a cavalry division came. If Li Cong had not seen the criticality of this moment, he would not have let them all in. According to the four
The configuration of the great empire and the equipment of the cavalry division of the Cao Family Trading Company. An ordinary soldier can equip two cavalrymen from the Eastern Empire and three cavalrymen from the Northwest and South Empire. The horses they boast are all the best from Purma Grassland.
There are only less than 300,000 such horses coming out every year, because it is a place where the government power cannot reach, so as long as you have money, you can get horses from that place. The original price
They were all 600 taels of silver each. Li Cong directly raised the price to 800 taels of silver and bought all the horses in the past ten years. Besides, the armor on their bodies was all made of stainless steel, costing as much as 120 taels of silver.
Even the royal cavalry of several other empires would not reach this level. If swords and hand crossbows are included, the cost of each of their cavalry would be 3,000 taels of silver. This is not the case in other empires.
It seems that that is impossible. The maximum cost of a cavalry in the Eastern Empire is 700 taels of silver. This is already much more powerful than the other three empires. The other three empires can spend 400 taels of silver, which is already good.
Well, the Cao Family Trading Company's cavalry has the highest combat effectiveness in this place. A cavalry division of 90,000 people requires at least more than 300 million silver to set up. Let people from other major empires spend so much money to set up.
For a cavalry division, it’s better not to make such a joke. It is impossible for them to invest so much. Even the Royal Guards Cavalry Corps of the Southern Empire does not have such expenses and cannot afford it.
There are only a dozen or so cavalry divisions like this in the entire Cao Family Trading Company. It’s not that they don’t want to set up this thing, and it’s not that they don’t want to spend money. In fact, there are some things that you can’t get if you just want to spend money. They all
There are many issues that need to be considered. In addition to horses and other things, there are still other things that need to be considered. Blacksmiths and other things also need to be considered. The Cao Family Trading Company has obtained a lot of raw materials, but you can't always be a blacksmith.
It can be mass-produced. Although there are many cavalry in training, it will take a lot of time to wait until the day they become an army. Another issue is the salary of these people. The four major empires
The salary of the cavalry is 5 taels of silver a month. If there is a war, it will be 7 taels of silver. At the end of the year, more money will be needed. Take the Western Empire as an example. The entire empire has nearly 4 billion cavalrymen.
This expenditure alone is definitely not a small amount, it costs nearly 30 billion every month. The cavalry is the most money-hungry army in the entire army. Their horses also cost at least one tael of silver a month.
One tael of silver can feed three people for a month, but it can only feed a horse ordinary food, not good food. The cavalry of the Cao Family Trading Company all earn 10 taels of silver a month.
In case of war, it will be doubled. At the end of the year, there will be a bonus of 50 taels of silver. This expenditure will be even greater. And after becoming a cavalry, each of his immediate family members can get 50 jins of wheat grain every month.
This is a treatment that these cavalrymen must strive for. Many of them join the cavalry because their families are not hungry. However, the selection is also very strict, and it does not mean that you can become one if you want it.
Now Li Yi has led the cavalry out. At the beginning, their speed was only about half of the fastest speed. Because the front position was already full of barbed wire and the like, they couldn't run. Prince Ding obviously
He also saw that the cavalry from the Cao Family Trading Company was coming, so this guy tried his best to tell his people to get ready quickly. However, his people who came in were all infantry. At this time, there were no archers sent by the court. Even if
It is also necessary to bring in some infantry. If these infantry are not allowed to come in, they have no other way. Now they have finally found a way to deal with the enemy. If they don't use it now, they will probably wait for a while.
There is definitely no certainty, so it is better to use it at this time. When the cavalry led by Li Yi rushed out of the range of the barbed wire fence, the infantry of the Cao Family Trading Company in front of them also deliberately started to move to both sides.
After being evacuated, they also understood that in such a charge, even if they had serial crossbows and grenades, they would not be able to match these cavalry. When it came to charging at this time, the cavalry was the best, and the infantry could not compare with them.
Yes, but if it were on earth, tanks would be the best. Unfortunately, there is no such thing in this world. If there were, such a defense line would be a rampage, but Li Cong could not put too many
Earth's technology has been brought to this planet. This is considered a taboo. If you do this, you may not be able to control the future. Maybe the people on this planet will create more powerful weapons.
What should I do at that time? Get the nuclear bomb by myself? That Pandora's box is not that easy to deal with. You can't do that. It would be irresponsible for your own life and the planet.
, it is absolutely not allowed to lead this planet into a kind of destruction, absolutely not allowed. (To be continued...)
