The Second Thousand One Hundred and Ninety-First Chapter Li Wei Goes Into Battle

The officers and soldiers of the two divisions did not stop after hearing Li Cong's order under such circumstances. They dropped the things in their hands and rushed up immediately. They are not very fast. We all know that it is impossible to run too fast at this time. The most important thing at this time is their queue. If they can guarantee their queue, there will be no problem in the past, although casualties It may be bigger, but their lethality will also increase quickly in the past. Now this war can no longer be stopped by both sides. For any aspect, as long as he wants to end the battle, then You have to admit that you are not as good as others, and the army of the Western Empire is indeed stronger than the army of the Southern Empire. At least they will not stop doing things so easily when faced with major losses. They all understand it very well. The high-level officials of the Western Empire understand very well that if it is really launched at this time, they may not organize some resistance in the future. Li Cong also has the same idea. The Western Empire The people here are really not very active. 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 side of the Southern Empire, it is estimated that the Southern Empire is now The generals were about to order their people to retreat a long time ago. In fact, they can’t be blamed for this incident. The reason why the people of the Western Empire resisted so fiercely is because the situation here is different from that over there. This is the attacking capital. ,Moreover. 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 even greater.

The people of the Western Empire were indeed very afraid of Li Cong's direct attack on their capital, but soon it was no longer a fear. They had more important things to do, and that was to kill Li Cong's army. Let the people of Cao's House know that they are completely different from the people in the Southern Empire. What you encountered in the Southern Empire will never happen to me, and we will never be afraid of you. Maybe there are some things that you don't quite believe. But sometimes this is something you have to believe in. Now what the hundreds of millions of Western Imperial Army have to do is to make Li Cong believe that all this is true, and their troops have gone up batch after batch , The corpses are already piled up like a mountain. But none of them retreated a bit. The army of Cao's firm has already charged up. The impact this time was about ten times that of just now, so the Western Empire also sent about five million troops to greet the troops of Cao's House of Commerce, just as their troops arrived. A series of shells came directly, and they all saw it clearly. It turned out that the position of the Western Empire Navy was already full of warships from Cao's firm. The Chinese navy is really embarrassing. They started to retreat without any resistance at all. Now they are about to retreat to the place where they started. All of them have been occupied by the navy of Cao's firm. These naval ships The boats had all the courage to reach the shore, and they could also give great support to the army of Cao's House. The artillery of the navy hit here like rain, and millions of troops turned out to be dead under their bombardment. It's messed up, no matter what their chief says, it's useless.

In fact, this is the difference between the artillery of the navy and the army. In addition to their different calibers, there is also a large number of artillery artillery in the navy, and the continuity is also very strong. When they attack the ground, they are simply resting, because they do not If you need to adjust any coordinates, you just need to fire the cannonball vigorously in a general direction.

Anyway, that direction is basically all people from the Western Empire. Whether it is killing people or other things, there is no problem. Sometimes some things are still different from before, but I don’t care about that. Well, the spirit of the army of the Western Empire seems to be a little bit gone at this time, good guy, there must be at least a few hundred of their naval artillery coming here, and there will even be some later What's more, look at the artillery shells that landed on this position, but there are many more than before, at least twice as many. If it is possible, what they want to kill the most is not Cao People from a commercial firm, they all want to kill their own navy first, if you can hold on for a while, we can hold on for a while, but now it is better, we have no chance at all, theirs The artillery is so powerful that after five million people went up, they didn't even persist for half an hour. As for those archers who were the targets of these artillery, they all started to be afraid. How many shells do people have? If we continue here, they will definitely not stop shelling. Just look at their appearance. Many people thought of running away at this time. As for their chief, they started to say I don't remember the words.

boom! ! A shell exploded in the heavy infantry phalanx in front, and dozens of heavy infantry around them flew out bloody and bloody, and a group of infantry behind rushed up. Their role was to be a The meat shield prevents the troops of the Cao's Commercial Bank in front from rushing up. What they want to protect is the archers behind them, and only those people can bring harm to the people of the Cao's Commercial Bank. In fact, how many of them are there at this time? Some things are clear. For example, they are already very dangerous now. Just now, there were not so many brothers who had accidents. At that time, there were about one-third of them. But if there is still the first For the hoplites who came up, you can look back at the people around you. I'm sorry, but you don't know anyone around you at this time, because they all just came up, and there are several positions There have already been four or five supplements, and many recruits in front of them are shouting, because in front of them, many soldiers of Cao's house were killed by bows and arrows falling from the sky, such things They are all very happy. Because they have never seen before that Cao's firm's army can be so useless, and the death rate can be done like that, but some veterans here understand that such a thing is basically impossible Yes, more people in Cao's House died just now, compared to just now, it seems that not even half of them died. What's going on? If there are a few powerful people among them, they may see what's going on behind them. In the archer camp behind them, there are more dead people than on their side. Much more.

Observed the situation on the battlefield for about five minutes. Li Cong basically understood what was going on. It was the archers behind who caused the most damage to the army of Cao's House, and the heavy infantry in front just looked more powerful. The real situation They are not very good. If you continue to attack these heavy infantry. Then he would really be fighting a war of attrition with the people of the Western Empire. If he was a material person, he would not be afraid. There were too many things in his inner body, but the things in front of him made him see clearly. It is his own people who are consumed, and this is the most important issue. It is absolutely impossible to fight such a war of attrition with the Western Empire. They all bypassed the heavily armed soldiers on the first side. The casualties of these people to Cao's Commercial Bank were almost negligible. These people are just some meat shields. They are the biggest threat to Cao's Commercial Bank. Those archers in the back, without those people, it is estimated that such a situation would not have happened, so as long as they can be killed, the battle may stop, because it is impossible for a country to have so many As for archers, everyone knows that an archer can train at least three or four warriors. The main reason is that these archers spend too much money to train them. Although this may increase the combat effectiveness of the entire empire, what should we do in terms of numbers? This is definitely not an acceptable thing. Everyone understands that quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. Everyone is also very clear about this, and they will not mess around.

The archers behind the Western Empire also immediately felt the pressure. Just now, a phalanx of 30,000 of them could last for at least five minutes, but now there are not many people who shoot five or six arrows by themselves. At this time, it means that their phalanx is not very useful. At this time, a new phalanx will come up, but how many people did they kill? Although they don't know the exact number, they also know that it must not be as many as before. What's going on? How could such a thing happen? Archers used to suffer very little, especially when they were on the battlefield. Archers always hit the enemy, so they were not very comfortable with such beatings, and they all felt Why are many things coming towards me? When the fifteenth phalanx went up, a general ran over and told Prince Ding that their archer phalanx had basically lost almost all of them. Well, the rest of the people are on the other side of the river. If you want to get those people over, it may be too late in time, and it is impossible for them to cross the river. There are no bridges on this river, and there is no bridge in this world. Something like this may appear, because there is not such a large heavy machinery in this world, and for them they all have to rely on things like ferries, but can they walk this thing now? What the general meant was that their method might not be able to go on, because now the people of Cao's House of Commerce have already killed all their archers. If this continues, the rest will be some second-hand soldiers. The guy with the knife is definitely more useless and dies faster.

"Bastard, 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 livestock, it is impossible for the people of Cao's House to kill them." So fast." Prince Ding cursed out as soon as he opened his mouth, and he was very happy watching from the tower at this time, because this guy could see the situation at Cao's House at a glance, and he had already seen it Hundreds of soldiers from Cao's House of Commerce were torn off in this round of attack. I heard that if the people of the Southern Empire wanted to kill hundreds of Cao's House of Companies' troops, they would have to pay tens of thousands of people. of. He knows that there are dead people on his side, but there will never be such a high proportion. Now is the time for them to reap the harvest. The most important thing now is not to stop this kind of attack. If people realize their own shortcomings, the war may be won or lost today, and the entire empire will not last long. Although there are not as many dead people as in the Southern Empire, they are still very powerful. Prince Ding finished scolding In the end, I also understood in my heart. He glanced at the archer's position over there. People were constantly being blown up. It seemed that the commanders of Cao's House were not fools. They understood the current situation very well and knew that attacking the heavy infantry outside would be of no use at all. These guys began to attack the archers behind them. Of course he knew what the general said about the two knives. They used to be ordinary fighters. If they were to be archers, it would be a waste of their bows and arrows. It won't play a good role, after all, they haven't trained in normal times.

Prince Ding was also in a dilemma at this time. If the infantry were allowed to act as archers, these people's abilities would not be as good as passing by. It is estimated that the heavy infantry in front would not be able to withstand it. Suddenly he thought of the river coming here There are still archers on the side, that is, those imperial guards, there are about 40,000 people, it is better to let them go up, but it takes ten minutes to go up with tens of thousands of people, and it can't solve many things at all. , besides, each of these guards of the imperial city has their origins, whether they are martial arts champions or something, or they have some roots in their families. It is no problem to let the children of ordinary people go out to do this work, but it is not possible now. Well, if these imperial city guards just die like that, even if you are a prince, it's not easy to explain, just like the Royal Guards Cavalry Corps in the Southern Empire. Is it the same shock? Many people are not so strong because of this incident. These people are also a little angry. Why are the children of their own families sent to the battlefield? Not only did they pass, some died, some The luckier ones were captured by the people of Cao's House, and the life after going back was not very easy. I heard that those who went back now started a struggle with the current power holders at home, which is also true. As for the solution, they used to belong to the most elite children in the family. Just because of being captured, it will not work in the future. The people who laughed at others in the Southern Empire did not expect that Feng Shui would turn around now, and now that it is on my side, I have lost the courage to make that determination, which is 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, the front will collapse immediately. Thinking of this, he glanced ahead, and he doesn't have that much right now. This kind of thing is not up to me. I let go of the flying monster in my hand, and the sixth-level monster quickly flew to the palace. It is better for the emperor to make a decision on such a matter. In fact, he chose this way. If he directly ordered these imperial city guards to enter the position, he might still be able to catch up, but when this thing is in the hands of the emperor, when the emperor orders, and when they go in, it may take half an hour. Time has passed, and at that time it was useless at all. Li Cong would not give you such a long preparation time. Your hoplites will need to replenish 20,000 people in almost ten minutes. If the bows and arrows behind If you don't launch at all, this time will be shortened even more, and it will be easier for our people to rush over. Li Cong is very clear about such things, and he is not a fool. If you can seize this opportunity, the hundreds of thousands of people who died today will have a good belonging. If there is no such result, these people may die here in vain today. Li Cong sees The boat that pulled the corpse has already gone back a lot. According to the rules of Cao's House, these people will send the ashes to their families after sparks. If there is no one at home, they will go to their martyrs. The cemetery, so that everyone in the army can 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 Wei, you personally took the remaining two divisions that have landed. Now you must break through this line of defense for me. Remember, this is your first war. I hope you can take this line for me. Defense line, many people say that our family has not been on the battlefield for a long time, how is it? Are you afraid?" Li Cong looked at his grandson and said, because the army he brought was too limited, the dozen or so The casualties of the Wan army are already very large, besides, because the area of ​​the beachhead is too small. There was no way for many soldiers on board to get off quickly. More than half of the troops of Cao's House on land have already gone up, and Li Wei was asked to take the remaining two divisions. Basically, there are less than three regiments left here, and the rest are up. Li Cong is now desperate. If the war is not won, there will be another chance. But his grandson only has this life. Although Li Cong has a lot of pills now, there is no one that can bring the dead back to life. If Li Wei was seriously injured, of course Li Cong has the ability to rescue this guy, but if he really died, it would be absolutely impossible. Such a thing is impossible for any world Things, no one can resurrect the dead, no one can do such a thing, Li Cong's decision to make such a test is also a test for himself, and he doesn't know whether what he is doing is right or not, But the only thing he knew was that he had to do that now, otherwise he would really be sorry for his troops. Why would they show their lives for your dominance? Is your grandson really that precious? How is this different from those royal families.

"Grandfather, don't worry, my grandson is now a sixth-level fighter. He has the ability to save his own life on the battlefield, and 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 on the battlefield back then, and I hope that I can achieve everything on the battlefield, and I hope that my grandfather can see me come back victorious." This kid is the same as his old man, and there is no So much nonsense, he got on the horse directly. He was going to lead a cavalry division and an infantry division. Naturally, he was going to ride his tall horse to the front of the cavalry division. Li Cong saw this guy riding a fast horse. After seeing the past, I was also a little worried, but my grandson will be an eagle in the future, and he shouldn't always live in his own protection like a chick. If this is the case, these family businesses will definitely be 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. What is going on, you can know how much you should cherish this family business. Li Wei rode to the cavalry division and read out Li Cong's order. The commander of the cavalry division also glanced at Li Cong's tent in surprise. Is there any mistake, the current war is different from that of the Southern Empire. At that time, the death rate was not very high, but it is different now. The death rate in this place is frighteningly high, almost It's almost 50%, the boss wants to let the kid in front of him go? Didn't this kill him, but the military order was overwhelmed, so he went to assemble the team immediately.

The one who has been following Li Wei is a tenth-level monster with blue eyes. It can be said that he is one of the remaining two monsters. This guy and his wife were only ninth-level monsters before. After joining Li Cong, that is, when Li Cong was refining alchemy in the Warcraft Mountains, he became a tenth-level monster. Li Cong gave him such abilities, so he is dedicated to any task Li Cong gives him. He tried his best to complete it. Originally, he was going to go with Li Wei this time. After all, he was responsible for Li Wei's safety since Li Wei arrived on this planet. In the past, as long as someone wanted to attack Li Wei , as long as he releases his breath a little bit, he will probably leave immediately. You must know that Li Wei is the descendant of Li Cong. This is definitely not a secret. The common people don't know it, but the high-level people know There are absolutely a lot of them. A prince of an empire will encounter thousands of assassinations in his life. Li Wei'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. Yes, many people can afford a lot of money. They don't care about this little money, they just hope to see Li Cong sad, and it is precisely because of the existence of this guy. Let Li Cong don't need to worry about the safety of his grandson at all. Without this guy, I don't know how I usually live. I must take this kid with him everywhere. Just now Li Cong When he went out, Biyan Qinghu wanted to follow him out. Li Cong hurriedly stopped this guy. On the one hand, he needed to let this guy go out to experience real danger. On the other hand, level ten monsters were not allowed to appear on the battlefield. , private protection is no problem. This will not work.

Prince Ding is anxiously waiting for news from the palace. But the more it gets to this time, the less news comes. This really makes them feel helpless. The people in the palace don't know how to do things. Why don't they know how to pass the news back quickly? ? In fact, the emperor of the Western Empire also scolded Prince Ding to death. Why didn't they know to keep more archers at the beginning? Now it turned out to be the guards of the imperial city. This is not for you, they are indeed very important, but there is one more thing to consider. They are not ordinary people. Although there are not many of them, one-tenth of the officials' children of the empire are here. Usually, they just guard the imperial city. At most, they are when the emperor or prince goes out. It is enough to call such a team of people out to be bodyguards, but even if they dream of going to the battlefield, they would never think of it, because they all know that such a really dangerous thing will not happen to them, and they can do it. They do some things that show their faces, such as speculators or military performances. They have very reasons for this, because they will have some credit after such things, and they all rely on these things to make money. Ascension, but let them really hold their own heads to fight, there is no mistake, we will never do this matter, even if we do, it is impossible to have any effect, no Some people would like us to go, including their family members. When they were still hesitating, mainly when His Majesty the Emperor was hesitating, the cavalry division and infantry division of Li Wei over there had already assembled, and Prince Ding here Are also working out to see.

This is a moment to decide the outcome, and Prince Ding himself knows it very clearly, if he can stop them, the war may be won, and then he will become the first person in the western imperial army Yes, even His Majesty the Emperor cannot prevent him from gaining military power. Of course, he will never commit any rebellion, but his dozen sons and dozens of grandsons are all guaranteed. I became the minister of the military department, so their path will be much smoother in the future. As long as they can enter the army, each one of them may have a title of earl when they finally come out. What about a general? It's no problem, when the time comes, the line of the prince's mansion will be the most outstanding line of the royal family besides the main line. Such a thing will definitely be very cool. Who will the next emperor be? Come on, I will also have the right to speak, and my children and grandchildren will have a very good life in the future, but these are all my own beautiful imaginations, what I have to do now is how to get over the things in front of me, if If the immediate matter cannot be resolved well, it is estimated that such a wonderful thing will not happen. There are already very few people in Cao's House on land. A cavalry regiment of 10,000 people can rush over, give them some powerful weapons, and if you are lucky, you can dry them all into the water. At that time, you will be a great hero of the empire, and you can use this The pace of victory got the people from Cao's House out. Prince Ding would have an idiot smile when he thought of such a thing. Every time such a thing happened, the people next to him would roll their eyes.

Li Wei himself is not a reckless boy. He knew the reason why his grandfather asked him to come. He didn't see that the brothers of the cavalry division saw that their leader was no longer the division commander, and their commander-in-chief had also changed. It is an eagle, which means that only when Li Cong personally leads the army will there be such a flag. Although Li Cong did not personally lead the team today, it is his descendant. As for whether it is a son or a grandson, it is not their business. The question is, if the Cao's house belongs to an empire, then they are now the Imperial Forest Army, and Li Cong would not care too much about such a thing, Li Wei also saw the meaning in their eyes at this moment, He said loudly, "Did you see the front line of defense? I told you that the infantry can't rush through. What is needed is our cavalry. It is said that the cavalry of our Cao's House is relatively weak, but now you all look at yours. Armor, look at the war horses you boast about, look at the steel knives and hand crossbows in your hands, nothing is worse than others, you are the only cavalry of the four empires, and I am already with you I have asked for instructions from above, as long as you can follow me through the front line of defense. From the next moment, you will be the guards of Cao's House. You also know that there are only ten divisions in the guards, and they are all You can only have military exploits. If you want to follow me today to become the 11th Division of the Guards, or are you a bunch of cowards? It doesn’t work at all. I don’t know about this. It depends on your own performance, so let’s do it now Let me see your abilities." His words were very provocative, even more powerful than what Li Cong said just now. Just look at the excited expressions on the soldiers' faces, they are really going crazy.

There are not many cavalry in Cao's House. Take this time as an example, only such a cavalry division came. If Li Cong hadn't seen the criticality of this time, he would not have let them all in. The configuration of the Great Empire, the equipment of the cavalry division of Cao's House, an ordinary soldier can equip two cavalry from the Eastern Empire, and three cavalry from the Northwest and Southern Empire. All the horses they boast are the best Puerma Grassland The horses that come out, such horses can only be produced less than 300,000 horses every year, because there is a place that the government cannot reach, so as long as you have money, you can get horses from that place. The original price They are all 600 taels of silver each. Li Cong directly offered a price of 800 taels of silver to buy all the horses in the past ten years. Besides, all the armors on them are made of fine steel, and the cost is as high as 120 taels of silver. One suit, this is the royal cavalry of several other empires. If you count the sword and hand crossbow, each of their cavalry costs 3,000 taels of silver. It seems that it is impossible. A cavalry in the Eastern Empire is worth 700 taels of silver at most. This is already much stronger than the other three empires. It is not bad that the other three empires can spend 400 taels of silver. That’s right, the cavalry combat effectiveness of Cao’s Commercial Bank is high in this place. A cavalry division of 90,000 people needs at least more than 300 million silver to form it. Let people from other big empires spend so much money to form it 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 of such cavalry divisions in the whole Cao's House, it's not that they don't want to build this thing, and it's not that they don't want to spend money, it's because there are some things that you can't get by spending money. There are a lot of issues that need to be considered. Apart from the horses, there are other things that need to be considered. The blacksmith also needs to be considered. The Cao's House has obtained a lot of raw materials, but blacksmiths don't care. It can be mass-produced. Although there are many cavalry in training, it will take a lot of time to wait until they become an army. Another problem is the salary of these people. The four empires Among them, 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, they will need more money. Take the Western Empire as an example. There are nearly four billion cavalry in the entire empire. The cost alone is definitely not a small amount, nearly 30 billion a month. The cavalry is the most expensive army in the entire army. Their horses cost at least one or two taels of silver a month. 1 taels of silver can feed three people a month's worth of food, but it can only feed one horse ordinary food, not good food. The cavalry of the Cao's House is 10 taels of silver a month. If there is a war, it will be doubled. If there is a bonus of 50 taels of silver at the end of the year, the expenditure will be even greater, and after becoming a cavalry, each of his immediate family members can get 50 catties of wheat every month. This treatment is what these cavalrymen must fight for. Many of them join the cavalry for the sake of not starving their families. However, the selection is also very strict.

Now Li Wei 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 things like barbed wire, so they couldn't run, Prince Ding obviously I also saw that the cavalry from Cao's House was coming, so this guy tried his best to tell his people to get ready quickly, but his people came in with some infantry. At this time, there were no archers sent by the court. It is necessary to go in some infantry. If these infantry are not allowed to come in, they have no other way. Now they have found a way to deal with the enemy easily. If it is not used now, it is estimated that later It must be uncertain, so it is better to use it at this time. When the cavalry led by Li Wei rushed out of the range of the barbed wire, the infantry of the Cao's House in front of them also intentionally moved to both sides. They were evacuated, and they also understood that even if they had serial crossbows and grenades, they could not be the opponents of these cavalry for such a charge. When it comes to charging, the cavalry is the best at this time, and the infantry is not as good as them Yes, but if it is on the earth, tanks are the best. Unfortunately, there is no such thing in this world. If there is, such a defense line is simply rampant, but Li never can put too much It is a taboo to bring earth technology to this planet. If you do this, you may not be able to grasp things in the future. Maybe people on this planet will create more powerful weapons. What should I do at that time? Get the nuke yourself? That Pandora's box is not so easy to deal with, I can't do that, it is irresponsible to my own life, and it is also irresponsible to this planet, absolutely cannot bring this planet into a kind of destruction Go, absolutely not. (To be continued..)
