Chapter 278 A victory that is not worth being proud of
.
"Those Mulan soldiers did not surrender today, my General Reyes! They still have knives in their hands!" Liu Zhenzhen picked out a grapefruit from the fruit plate and threw it to the soft-hearted General Fox: "Think more about it
You will be as cruel as me for the immoral things these Mulan bandits did in our Bimeng country. The enemy will not let our compatriots go because of your mercy. Is this your first time on the battlefield?"
"Yes." General Fox's face suddenly became the same color as his tail. This time he was sent by the family to be gilded.
"What is a battlefield? What is a soldier?" Liu Zhenshao looked at the top student from the Kingdom Military Academy in front of him and tugged at the corner of his mouth with a cold smile: "The battlefield turns soldiers into beasts. If you don't know how to do it, you will die sooner or later.
On the battlefield, Reyes, I advise you to tell the truth and read less knightly novels. Those novels about innocent armies are all fucking lies. If you step into the territory of a foreign race, if the other party's children, women
, old man, they all took up arms to attack you, what do you do? Do you think these aliens can accept you just because of Qiu's unbroken military discipline and broad mind? Nonsense! Since we are just passers-by, let's just straighten ourselves out first
s position!"
General Reyes straightened his back awkwardly and listened uneasily to the chief shaman's instructions.
"General, do you still remember the purpose of our coming here this time?" Liu Zhenshao continued his cruel preaching: "Yes, rescue the princess! Of course, the kingdom may have other plans, but what about us?"
"We are soldiers, and soldiers should have their own honor." General Reyes was a little unconvinced; "In war, casualties are always inevitable, but always carrying a murderous heart is contrary to the spirit of chivalry."
"Is war meaningful? No war is meaningful! Our mission is to either kill or be killed." Liu Zhenzhen knew that he could not make sense with this little guy. He shook his head and said: "We have no other choice.
."
"I think if you are like this, it is easy for you to have a tendency in the future. Maybe you will even sleep with a dagger from time to time. If your family accidentally approaches you, maybe you will kill them as enemies.
"General Reyes looked at Liu's shocked eyes with fear and kept shaking his head: "It's terrible... It's terrible..."
"Let you read less boring knight novels." Liu Zhenzhen laughed dumbly: "That's pure fart! Is that possible? Isn't it too funny? On the battlefield, either you die or I die. This is a simple matter.
Where does all this nonsense come from?"
"Then how do you train your followers? Just rely on killing?" General Reyes rolled his eyes.
"Don't forget that you still have the belief in justice. My followers all carry olive branches and the steel swords of freedom fighters. Please don't let the olive branch slip from our hands." Liu Zhenzhen added.
"Can I ask, Your Majesty, where did you dispatch so many soldiers today?" General Reyes had been hiding this question in his heart for a long time, and now he finally took the time to ask, "Your Majesty, those brave warriors under your command.
The fierce tauren, are they the Golden Ring Warriors?"
"They are not takin warriors, but the Minotaurs from another continent." Liu Zhenzhen laughed: "My magician level is good. I can teleport a group of warriors from Feilengcui at once, but prepare this
It takes a long time to transfer magic. It’s very troublesome.”
"So that's it." General Reyes nodded: "Your Majesty, the air force is really very powerful."
"So-so." Liu Zhenshao laughed to death. Instead of using five sky knights to carry five hundred takin warriors with space rings to attack from behind these Mulan soldiers, how could the Toulon unit be so easy to defeat today?
The other side's earthen wall.
Twenty captains of the Orifan Alliance and two captains of the Fox Alliance walked into the commander's tent together, first saluted the chief shaman, and then saluted General Reyes.
"What are the casualties?" Liu Zhenzhen asked with concern.
"One hundred and twenty-four soldiers were killed, and three hundred and fifty-two were injured. Your monks and elf priests are treating our wounded." The two Fox captains said happily: "The soil
London United's combat effectiveness is still very intact."
"The record is really brilliant!" General Reyes smiled and nodded: "The opponent was not just the 4,000 people reported by the Elf Sky Knight, there were as many as 6,000 people! We defeated three times the powerful enemy!"
"The enemy panicked when they were attacked from two sides. The regular army's position was scattered by the slaves. Such a battle was almost one-sided. If only 3,000 regular troops defended the earthen wall, our casualties would skyrocket. Their ground
Our sword skills are very powerful and our weapons are excellent. In terms of individual combat effectiveness, two of our warthog warriors cannot beat a desert soldier." An Orephin squadron leader was not so optimistic.
"Today, there are enough battle songs blessed by the priests, and the opponent's cavalry cannot separate our infantry. The enemies our infantry soldiers need to face are only more than 2,000 enemies behind the earth wall, plus us
There's a huge meteor shower here!" Another Orphan squadron leader made an exaggerated gesture and took over the conversation excitedly, "Your Majesty Richard! You are really amazing! Without your magician, there would be no life.
Your cavalry and our warriors were swept away by the opponent's camel cavalry, and with the addition of magic, they will all be killed!"
"Yes! No, Your Majesty, we are really doomed this time! Fortunately, Your Majesty asked us to form a skirmish line on all sides. If we all crowded into a pile like those prisoners of war and attacked a point, those 'Begging Towers of Light'
We will definitely suffer heavy casualties, and it is not impossible to lose a whole regiment!" Another Mammoth squadron leader jumped out, and the words made General Reyes look embarrassed.
"Begging Tower of Light?" Liu Zhenzhen rolled his eyes: "What is the 'Begging Tower of Light'? Is it that kind of prism?"
"I learned from the mouths of the slave captives that the twelve prisms are powerful defensive weapons of the Mulan Empire. They absorb the light from the sky and scorch everything in front of them! Its name is the 'Begging Tower of Light'
!I heard that there are only forty of these things in the entire Mulan Empire!" The captain of the Giant Elephant Squadron raised his long nose in excitement: "This thing must weigh several tons each, so thick and tall..."
"That's my trophy." Liu Zhenhan interrupted the extremely excited Giant Elephant Hercules with a smile: "You are too proud too early. Do you want to know how many Summer Palace guards I have deployed to participate in this battle?"
"How much?" all the officers asked together.
"Twenty-two Mammoth heavy cavalry, four hundred and fifty-two Minotaur cavalry, forty Newtonian air cavalry, four hundred and forty Chimera air cavalry, forty-eight Hippo marines, and one hundred mastiff warriors
Eight, one thousand one hundred and fifty-six Minotaur warriors, forty-four iron-clad golden mastiff dogs, two giant mastiffs, and I even sent a personal bodyguard to join the battle! A total of two thousand two hundred
Sixty-five people! Forty-six war mastiffs! The Toulon regiment plus the charge group has a total of 2,342 people. How many more than me?" Liu Zhanzhan coldly inspected these bewildered Behemoths.
Officer: "Do you know how many mages and priests I have in total? There are five soul priests in the expeditionary priest group, and two war priests in the army. Helen Lanxia, Sister Sister Joan of Arc, a total of nine; do you know how many magicians there are? Momo Mo.
My lord, do you know that Miss Sissi has been supporting you all with lightning and raindrops of water and arrows during the battle? There are also two elf mages that I transferred from Jade, Tangning, Vassell, and the powerful fire mage Ott.
Plus his apprentice Messi, and my personal bodyguard Napoleon Giant Iverson led forty-eight hellfire giants, plus the sharpshooter Mr. Nedved, Drizzt and Yibao can fire golden bullets.
The magic arrow sniper team composed of pure golden toads, as well as the seven-headed demon pet, Tide Lord Grain and I, our magic power is five times that of the other party! Five times!"
There was only the sound of gasping all around.
"Understood? With five times the opponent's magic strength, nine priests, and the strength of the last regiment, we defeated the opponent's three regiments of regular troops and some miscellaneous slaves. What is there to be proud of? My summer palace
The guard is composed of one of Behemoth's strongest warriors who can fight ten!" Liu Zhenshaan banged the table in front of him loudly: "Elite, elite! I am elite, you bitch! Do you deserve to be called the most elite force in the Northeast?
You dare to be called an elite without even being on the battlefield? You forget about it after winning a battle! Damn it!"
A large group of officers were so scolded that they were dripping with cold sweat. They lowered their heads and did not dare to say a word.
"If you couldn't open a gap at that time, I was going to send Mo'er's personal bodyguard, the giant whale warrior Feidu, up!" Liu Zhenzhen became more and more angry as he scolded: "Strangers, ****, every team
Are they just eating shit? Are the skirmishers just a swarm of swarms? The scattered troops also need to have an attack level! Don't the porcupine spear throwers know how to rush into forty yards and suppress the opponent on the spot? Why do they rush up with them? From
Starting today, all porcupine spear throwers and warthog warriors will be mixed in half to form a mixed formation! If your staff doesn't know what to do, I will second my chief of staff, Roberto Baggio, to you!"
"Yes! Your Majesty!" Every Toulon officer puffed up his chest.
"Report what you have learned. You can't rush into training. After two more battles, you will be proficient. This is the first time for our summer palace guards to go to the battlefield. They also performed poorly. The Chimera cavalry actually forgot
Rely on the giant beast's attack to do the 'Aegean Upward Throw'! It has been done ten thousand times, but no one is smarter! The takin cavalry actually chases the camel cavalry, can they fucking catch up? They are all **
*Idiot!" Liu Zhenhan glared fiercely at Brothers Wallace, captain of the Chimera Cavalry, and Ewing, captain of the Takin Heavy Cavalry, who had just walked in quietly.
"The trophies this time are mainly camels and swords. We captured more than 4,000 camels in total." There was also a lot of baggage, including a lot of cheese. I think the soldiers will like it very much. There are also 1,500
Forty-two slaves, the origin of these slaves is very complicated, there are many old people and children, most of them are craftsmen, I asked, there is no blacksmith." Captain Vincent Carter of the Porcupine Captain was a shrewd Fox, and when he saw His Majesty
He has already declared that the 'Light Begging Tower' has been owned by him. He is very sensible and did not even mention this harvest: "Your Majesty, we also captured ten lion taming women and seven snake slaves, all of whom are weak. I
I am going to present those ten lion-taming women to Your Majesty and raise powerful warriors for Your Majesty!"
These disgusting words immediately made Helen and Mo'er roll their eyes at him.
"Oh?" Liu Zhancheng became interested: "Is there any one of those round-headed lions left? And the cobra, is there still one?"
"No, they were all torn apart by your Majesty's Mastiff." Before Captain Vincent Carter could reply, Captain Warthog shook his head at the side: "There were actually a few cobra plates there, Mastiffs.
There was nothing we could do with them, but they were all shot to death by your archers."
"Let's keep the snake slave and the lion taming girl. When the time comes, we will show His Highness Kahn what we have harvested. I want these guys to be of no use." Liu Zhenshao thought about it and asked the two takin captains: "What about you? Two
Many of the thousand camel cavalry escaped, did you gain anything?"
"I didn't chase the takin." A huge blush appeared on Ewing's face, the captain of the takin heavy cavalry: "After chasing for half a mile, the takin couldn't run anymore. I came back."
"Neither takin nor mammoths are beasts that can be pursued for long distances. Your pursuit is in vain. Why don't you understand?" Liu Zhenzhen sighed.
"Our Chimera Air Cavalry and Newton Air Cavalry chased each other for about thirty miles. The weather was too hot and the double-headed Chimera was too big, so I withdrew first. The endurance of Newton's giant bird is better than that of our Chimera.
It was better to pull, so Captain Adu continued the pursuit with the Newton Air Cavalry. These camel cavalry should not be able to escape many people." Brother Wallace, the captain of the Chimera Air Cavalry, wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Your Majesty, can you send a letter to the legion commander next?" General Reyes asked cautiously.
"Let's go! Let them get closer. From what the imam said just now, the other party has a great general." Liu Zhenchen thought for a while and then said to Reyes: "Leave one hippogryph cavalry. Let her go tomorrow.
Fly to the northern desert for us and do a search. If there are no enemy troops within three hundred miles, we will first destroy the surrounding snakes and scorpions. If there are, we should make plans. Okay, everything
Officers, please go about your business! Dismissal!"
"Our strength has almost been exposed." Helen sighed when she saw all the officers leaving.
"The quota of the Summer Palace Guard is the same as that of the Palace Guard. I have money to support twenty regiments and no one dares to take care of it!" Liu Zhenzhen was quite arrogant at first, but as he spoke, he softened: "Obi
Scratch! I still can’t afford it. What a bullshit summer palace guard. One thousand one hundred and fifty-six takin infantry and four hundred and thirty-nine takin cavalry are still wearing rattan armor. When can I give them to them?
Wear full body armor!"
"The arsenal needs to make mechanical high-rises. It also needs to make 'Youkur Chain Armor' for the cavalry. There are more than a thousand sets of full-body heavy armor. The task is too heavy, and your requirements are too high. Why do you have to do them all?"
Crown of Thorns Armor?" Helen couldn't help but scolded: "Although it is an imitation of the Crown of Thorns Armor, it is too time-consuming."
"No! I must stand up with the same armor, otherwise I will become a no-name." Liu Zhenshao shook his head.
"Where are the one hundred and fifty dragonmen? When will they arrive? We are so short of archers now!" Mo'er frowned; "If there were one hundred more archers today, there would probably be zero casualties."
"It's almost time. When I was heading to Cambridge Oasis, I sent a text message to ask Ibrahimovic. He said he had already set off. It has been more than a month since we entered the desert, right?" Liu Zhenzhen let out a long sigh; "Mo'er, don't take it either.
Using Nedved's standard to measure those dragon-man archers, I actually made a mistake this time. We should have brought the Tiger Mercenary Group over, although it is our second-line corps, but they still have two hundred forest elf archers."
"When I go back this time, I have to recruit Shenjian Zheqin no matter what! Without them, our organization will always have a huge regret!" Mo'er nodded vigorously.
"Aren't there twelve more 'Light Begging Towers' now? When are we going to pick twelve butterfly guys, the brave ones should be the mirror gunners!" Liu Zhenzhen laughed.
"Speak of the mirror cannon, the mirror cannon is here!" Bellamy laughed and opened the pearl curtain on the tent door. Guoguo followed behind him, holding a huge glass tower crown on his head. The glass tower crown
Standing on top was a little parrot, its little butt wiggled in.
"Beast! Prodigal son! I just got it and my butt is not yet warm, why did you take it off? What should I do if it's broken?" Liu Zhenzhen felt terribly distressed. He picked a pomegranate and was about to smash it at Bellamy.
"It's okay. The mirror cannon is originally stuck on the chute and is detachable. Otherwise, how would the Mulans transport it? The first reason why it is installed on the tower is to absorb and store light, and the second is to occupy the commanding heights and increase the range.
And the range, in fact, it is the same to fire after taking it down, but it can only shoot three hundred yards, and the lethality cannot cover as wide as ten yards. I have consulted knowledgeable slaves about this." Bellamy flattened his mouth, "Brother.
We are already preparing to demolish it and transport the jade back to the city together with the ancient war tree."
"Oh? Can you still pick it off and fire it?" Liu Zhenzhen took off the glass tower crown from Guoguo's head, held it in his hand and looked at it carefully. The shape of this thing looked like a rectangular box.
, to be specific, it's a bit like a coffin. The front end, the back end, and the left and right sides are each a clear glass lens. The upper and lower ends are made of steel forged from Utz steel. The base is engraved with wonderful talismans. There are
A transparent gemstone is suspended in the middle, and a ray of light is like flowing mercury, which occasionally sprinkles from the top of the steel plate and penetrates into the transparent gemstone.
Liu Zhancheng took a closer look. It turned out that the upper steel top was inlaid with a row of neat gems. These gems shone like stars, really twinkling, and the silvery flowing light emanated from these gems.
Dropped the floating jewel diamond.
"This is the 'Morning Star Gem.' According to the slaves, the mirror cannon relies on the talismans carved on the tower pillars to collect sunlight and moonlight, and concentrate them into the 'Morning Star Gem.' One can be filled in four hours during the day or eight hours at night."
Morning Star Gem "A gem can fire a mirror cannon once." Seeing the curious audience surrounding the mirror cannon, Bellamy couldn't help but show off: "Only the Mulan Empire has the casting technology for this thing, isn't it bad?
?”
"Isn't that too few?" Nedved counted the gems on it and found there were only twenty-four: "How many shots is this enough for?"
"Not bad, not bad." Liu Zhenshao stroked the two fine steel handles protruding diagonally from the base of the mirror cannon. He found that there were anti-slip grinding patterns on the handles. He couldn't help but feel a little satisfied. Each of the two handles had
A turquoise button, needless to say, is the trigger when firing. Liu Zhencheng feels that this design is very user-friendly, especially taking care of one-armed disabled people like him.
"No wonder we need to shoot together to defeat the hippogryph knights. The accuracy of this thing is impossible to master." Helen opened her beautiful eyes from the front lens and looked at Liu Zhensha, who was leaning his face against the rear lens.
, both of them thought it was quite fun. The other person's face suddenly became extremely big. Guoguo also pushed his head next to Helen's face. Liu Zhencheng was startled. He suddenly saw a pair of huge eyeballs beating.
Turn around.
"I have a way, find a pen and ruler, divide the middle into two halves, draw a black line, and draw a circle of gold coins on the intersecting black lines. Whoever I fire on from now on will just use the black circle." Liu Zhenshao.
He chuckled. He thought it was a bit funny to add an aiming line to this thing.
"This is a covering weapon, so it doesn't matter about accuracy." Mo'er tapped the glass lens with her fingers "bang bang bang" a few times, and it felt quite hard.
Liu Zhencheng looked at this thing and was reminded of the past. Today's scope gunners were shot to death by Nedved Yang on the tower. Back then in southern Xinjiang, when the Type 59 tank crews leaned forward to operate the machine guns, they also
It was often shot down by enemy snipers. Later, the army installed half-moon-shaped protective steel plates on the machine guns of the Type 59 tanks, making it no longer so dangerous to operate the machine guns. The market price of a set of half-moon-shaped protective plates is only 2,000 yuan.
If today's mirror gunners also had half-moon protective steel plates, could Nedved's divine arrows be able to quickly complete the sniper mission without destroying the prisms? Liu Zhenzhen couldn't help laughing when he thought of this, no matter
What do others think? It's not difficult to install a half-month steel plate anyway, so you can do it yourself.
You can let the Mulan people try this thing. Liu Zhencheng secretly made up his mind.
