Chapter 749 Taking Off?

This battle is a great victory!

The empire dispatched three general armies with over 10,000 soldiers and horses, and carefully planned the robbery of the camp in the early morning in an attempt to wipe out the Xue Ran Army in one fell swoop.

However, they were beaten by the Snow-burning Army and had an information gap. Not only did they rob an empty camp, but they were also bombarded by endless sky-burial snow meteors.

The empire's second wave of offensive was originally very powerful. It also consisted of ten thousand troops, led by the general Death Bones. It intended to rescue its companions and completely crush the annoying bugs. However.

However, the imperial people encountered Rong Taotao who rushed to the scene.

Under a giant blooming lotus, there are eight thousand soldiers and horses falling from the sky!

Switching sides before the battle was naturally despised, but under the intimidation of Lotus, everything was so logical.

Hell Lotus Petals gained more than 2,000 fanatical believers, and more than 8,000 soldiers also brought back more than 3,000 imperial prisoners.

So far, the Imperial people have suffered unprecedented heavy losses!

Although the empire has a population of more than 400,000, the number of battle orders is only 50,000. And in the early morning of this early June, the empire lost tens of thousands of battle orders.

This is not just a matter of loss, but also a matter of waxing and waning!

You must know that not all of the empire's soldiers died on the battlefield. There were more than 5,000 believers and prisoners alone!

In addition, during the first wave of offensive, the captured troops of the three major regiments that fled were returned.

In this battle, the Xue Ran Army gained nearly 7,000 new soldiers and horses!

The various powerful snow realm soul beasts really made the human warriors feel like they were visiting a store of their own choice. There were even nearly 500 snow-trampling rhinos joining the team.

This victory is well deserved!

Having said that, the 8,000 soldiers of the Snow Burning Army + 2,000 soul beast villagers + 2,000 believers VS 5,000 prisoners of war, is this ratio really reasonable?

Aren't the Snow Burning Army afraid of the camp exploding? Aren't you afraid that the prisoners of war will rebel?

The answer is. Don’t be afraid!

Under unique environmental conditions, lotus has become the only magic weapon to win people's hearts.

The five thousand prisoners of war were not only shocked by the powerful fighting power of the human race, but also completely captured by Lotus.

After collective discussion by the core team, Mei Hongyu took the lead in proposing the strategy of "Lotus Faith".

Mei Hongyu, who had not really taken action, rushed to the edge of the snow forest after Rong Taotao arrived. Like an insidious snake, he stayed at the forefront of the battlefield, guarding behind Rong Taotao.

To be honest, Rong Taotao didn't even know whether Mei Hongyu was here to protect him or to be a scheming person behind his back.

The old principal witnessed with his own eyes such shocking scenes as blooming flowers, the retreat of the imperial army, and the worship of believers.

Since everyone has set foot on a barbaric land, and the opponent is an uncivilized ferocious spirit beast, using faith as a means to restrain the ferocious spirit beast is naturally the best strategy.

In the afternoon of that day, with the decision of the core team, all parties gathered the troops and prisoners of war in the forest, and Rong Taotao bloomed again.

Among all the lotus petals, the hell lotus is obviously the most "magnificent" lotus petal and has the strongest impact on people's senses!

The empire has lotus flowers that cover the sky and the sun, and the human race also has them!

Don't say that conquering the empire is a great dream of the Spring and Autumn Period. Take a look at this lotus with your own eyes and tell me, is this a dream?

Interestingly, just when Rong Taotao was blooming and Gao Qingchen was doing ideological work for the spirit beasts under the lotus, several unconquered tribes came here in an attempt to join such a coalition.

This was something Gao Lingwei didn't expect.

After all, she and her team worked hard for half a month to recruit only 2,000 tribal villagers, and Rong Taotao blossomed here and attracted more than 500 people.

In fact, Gao Lingwei's idea was biased. Of course the villagers came for the lotus, but in the vast snowfield, the shocking battle between the human race and the empire was watched by many surrounding tribes.

What?

How dare anyone challenge the empire?

And he also defeated the empire?

Yes, let’s go! Let's rebel with them!

In fact, these tribes who came to defect were only the first batch. News of the defeat of the imperial army would soon spread around the empire, and by then, more and more tribal villagers would naturally defect.

At this point, the difficult situation for the Xueran military was suddenly solved!

Become famous in one battle!

Rong Taotao held a lotus in his hand and led the divine soldiers to descend from the sky. This single battle completely overturned this snowy land.

"Human Race: Burning Frost and Snow Legion" made a stunning appearance. Witnessed by tens of thousands of soul beasts, it stepped onto the stage of the vast snowy realm.

On this day, the soul beasts' understanding of the world was completely overturned, and the imperial people within the high wall were shaking violently physically and mentally.

At night, inside Gao Lingwei's tent.

Shilou held a small book in his hand and talked about the statistics reported by various troops at the end of the day: "468 new trampled snow rhinos were added, of which 122 were slightly injured and 32 were seriously injured. Military doctors are treating them. The tribal villagers suffered heavy losses. , 532 people died and suffered minor injuries.”

Gao Lingwei sat on the animal skin carpet, leaning against the lying Moon Leopard behind her. She held her forehead with one hand and rubbed her temples with her middle finger and thumb, looking distressed.

The problem of tribal villagers is indeed a bit difficult.

You know, when everyone fought their way out of the underground shelter, the three major armies of the empire had been crushed by the Sky Burial Snow Meteor.

This should have been a battle of harvest, but because of the villagers' irrationality, lack of organization and discipline, so many casualties were added for no reason.

Gao Lingwei has become a qualified leader.

She would not remain indifferent just because the people she lost were tribal villagers. To her, every creature in her team was a soldier under her command.

Moreover, since a large number of enemy prisoners of war joined the Snow Burning Army, the conflict between the tribal villagers and the imperial soldiers has been visible to the naked eye!

As a result, the current human camp had to be divided, with the human soldiers and horses in the middle, and the imperial generals and the soul beast villages on the left and right.

At this moment, Xue Ran's army is more like the "Chuhehanjie" on the chessboard, with a black chess piece on the left and a red chess piece on the left.

Fortunately, the deterrence of human soldiers and horses is strong enough, and the deterrence of Hell Lotus is also a big help. At present, this joint army is relatively stable, and everyone is in peace.

But peace and harmony is the limit. It is completely impossible for the empire and the village to live happily together and abandon their past grudges for a common goal.

"Ha" Gao Lingwei sighed softly while listening to Shi Lou's report, put down her palm, and turned her head to look to one side.

After Rong Taotao came back, she was finally no longer alone in the huge animal skin tent.

At this time, Rong Taotao was standing in front of the dead wood table, with a bone crown placed above it and a huge animal skin flag spread out.

There are five characters written on the animal skin flag: "The First Battle of the Empire".

The five characters are thin and strong, thin but not delicate, and the muscles and bones are like blades. They can be said to bend iron and cut metal, with a very strong personal color.

From these five thin gold characters written in blood, Rong Taotao seemed to see Mei Hongyu's lifeless and withered face.

Yes, this calligraphy treasure was sent by Mei Hongyu to her sister-in-law Yang Chunxi when she returned to the camp after the core team meeting in the afternoon.

According to my sister-in-law, when the old principal wrote this banner, he was in a good mood, smiling, and very happy, and he wrote it in one go.

Rong Taotao naturally believed in his sister-in-law, but to be honest, the iron-clad font in front of him revealed a murderous intention. It was hard for Rong Taotao to imagine how the old principal wrote it with a smile.

Could it be that it was written with a sneer or a sinister smile?

Obviously, Mei Hongyu particularly appreciated this battle and was even more impressed by the performance of Rong Taotao and the soldiers.

This is also the most important battle for the Xue Ran Army since they entered the vortex. It may even be a major battle that ranks high in the history of the Northern Snow Realm!

Whether a war is important or not is certainly not judged solely by the number of participants.

More important is its significance and impact.

The so-called "First Battle of the Empire" has completely opened up the situation and is likely to determine the future direction of the war between Xueran and the Empire.

This battle truly deserves a name.

Of course, this flag was not given to Rong Taotao alone, but to all the soldiers by Mei Hongyu.

Just because Rong Taotao and Gao Lingwei are the leaders of the Snow-Burning Army, this animal skin flag is temporarily here.

"Sister Wei?" Shilou's soft whisper slightly awakened Gao Lingwei, who was entranced.

"Huh?" Gao Lingwei was finally willing to look away from Rong Taotao and turned around.

Shilou said softly: "The ministries are recruiting the remnants of the army, and those who are stubborn are..."

Another worry!

The vast majority of prisoners of war have surrendered obediently under the joint deterrence of the human corps and lotus, but there are still some hard bones that are difficult to crack.

Lock them up?

How can things be so simple?

If human soul warriors were taken as prisoners of war, people could force them to explode the soul beads, shake out the natal soul beasts in the captives, and wipe out all the prisoners' cultivation.

But what about the Orc prisoners of war?

How do you imprison him?

Their soul beads can't explode, and all their abilities are limited!

For example, take the three war general races of Frost Lady, Frost Death Warrior, and Snow Prison Fighter. Do you really dare to imprison them around the camp?

They casually take advantage of the situation, such as Frost Lady's strong wind and Frost Death's sword falling. Even the human army can't bear it, and the camp will inevitably fall into chaos.

Problems also arise.

The Snow Burning Army neither wanted to slaughter the prisoners of war, nor was it willing to allow these guys to return to the empire and continue to be its minions.

Therefore, the human army could only form a team to take these captives out of the camp and take care of them in the forest, and by the way took over the hunting task.

However, there is indeed a prisoner of war in the camp. He is currently in an underground shelter and is being closely guarded by the soldiers.

This special prisoner is named Bing Hun Yin.

It is a member of the Dead Bone Corps and assists the army in coming to rescue and crush the human corps.

However, things are unpredictable. No matter how outstanding the Ice Soul Seducer's personal abilities are, he cannot stop the fleeing army.

The army was defeated like a mountain!

Binghunyin was completely defeated, defeated by the ignorance of his own empire's soldiers.

At this moment, the Ice Soul Guide, which was unwilling to surrender, was blindfolded by an animal skin scarf, and was thrown into a dark tunnel in the underground shelter, where it was strictly guarded by the soldiers.

Xue Ranjun had to do this, after all, Bing Hun Yin could communicate without any barriers as long as his relatives were around.

Overall, this Ice Soul Guide was both an extremely valuable prisoner and a huge hidden danger.

Gao Lingwei said: "There is nothing we can do about the stubborn ones, but there is no need to use other means to force the captives to submit. When we take over the empire, we can just exile these captives.

We are going to hunt after all. You will communicate with the commander of the Snow Chapter later, so that the Snow Chapter can reasonably allocate troops, lead prisoners to hunt, and provide supplies for the army. Nothing can go wrong. "

Shilou: "Yes!"

Gao Lingwei: "Is there anything else?"

Shilou shook his head, glanced at Rong Taotao's profile and prepared to leave.

Gao Lingwei said, "Have a rest. You've been tired for the whole day. Go lie down over there for a while."

Of course, Shilou didn't want to rest in the tent, and didn't want to disturb the two classmates' world. She shook her head hurriedly: "I'm going to see the stone ring."

Rong Taotao suddenly said: "Stone ring?"

Shilou looked at Rong Taotao: "That's the female frost warrior."

"Oh." Rong Taotao leaned on the dead wood table with one hand and said with a smile, "How's it going? It went smoothly?"

"She and I get along very well, and she also likes me very much." Shi Lou nodded lightly.

Rong Taotao's heart moved and he said, "Then take advantage of our army's great victory and the lucky bonus to ask her for her opinion."

"Okay." Shi Lou did not hesitate. It was obvious that she was very confident in this relationship.

"Come on!" Rong Taotao grinned and gave Shilou a thumbs up.

"Yeah." Shi Lou, who had always been serious, couldn't help but smile and gave Rong Taotao a thumbs up.

Seeing this scene, Gao Lingwei couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

The missions and battles that had been going on for such a long time had placed a huge burden on her, which even made her breathless.

And Rong Taotao's return did make her feel relieved a lot.

At the entrance of the camp, Shi Lan's voice suddenly came: "Gao Tuan."

"explain."

"Li Meng is here."

"Come in." Gao Lingwei stood up with one hand on the ground.

Of course she could be more casual when talking to a member of her family like Shi Lou, but when it came to military generals, Gao Lingwei still planned to be more formal.

Shilou immediately opened the tent curtain and let two tall soldiers walk in. She also went out to look for the stone ring.

The two black-armored soldiers who came in were holding dark helmets in their arms and were about to salute Gao Lingwei.

Gao Lingwei hurriedly pressed her hands: "Relax in private."

Li Meng smiled. This tall, elegant-looking general had an outstanding temperament.

The female soldier on the side was also strong-backed, and for a while, Rong Taotao and Gao Lingwei didn't know who she was.

As if aware of the leader's doubts, the female soldier hurriedly said: "Gao Tuan, I am the boss An Yu, and my second sister An Lin and I came with the officers and soldiers of the Qingshan Army.

Third sister An Ling is now at the Wan'an Pass headquarters, beside the commander-in-chief. "

"Well." Gao Lingwei looked at his favorite general and asked, "Is something wrong?"

An Yu: "I reported today's battle situation to the headquarters in detail through Third Sister's body. Just now, the headquarters issued an order to promote the two of them under special circumstances so that they can lead the army in the future."

Rong Taotao was curious: "Exceptional promotion?"

Anyu nodded: "Yes, I will make an announcement to the core team on behalf of the headquarters at the morning meeting tomorrow. Come here now to say hello to the two of you privately and to prepare the two leaders."

Rong Taotao: "."

Gao Lingwei: "."

Does this sentence make sense?

Let the two "chiefs" be prepared?

Rong Taotao and Gao Lingwei looked at each other. Strictly speaking, as the leaders of the Qingshan Army, Gao Rong and Gao Rong were the leaders of the Qingshan generals within the Qingshan Army, so there was nothing wrong with calling them so.

But An Yu came with an order from the headquarters this time, and both Gao Rong and Gao Rong were aware of the special nature of this title.

Speaking of which, the eight thousand Xueran army soldiers + nine thousand soul beast troops totaled more than seventeen thousand soldiers and horses, and various soul beast tribes were still pouring in and taking refuge.

What size of an army is this?

Gao Lingwei and Rong Taotao are the initiators of this mission, and various units are here to assist the Qingshan Army. How high will these two people be pushed to?

Rong Taotao couldn't help but pursed his lips, and had only one thought in his mind: Am I afraid I'm going to take off?
