The First Army has 10,000 troops, and its commander is Erwin. Almost all the soldiers have experienced war. They are currently stationed in three small towns outside Silverpine City. They have only had small-scale battles with evil spirits and suffered thirty casualties.
Six people.
The Second Army has 10,000 troops, and its commander is Will Rogers. All the soldiers have experienced war. They are currently holding on to Han Maple Fortress, fighting hard day and night, and losing more than 2,700 people.
The Third Army has 20,000 troops, and its commander is Su Lite. Most of the soldiers have never experienced war. They are currently holding on to Jinguang City, fighting hard day and night, and losing more than 4,200 people.
The Western Army has 20,000 troops, commanded by Jarvan Gusta. Half of the soldiers have experienced combat, but only one-fifth of the soldiers are familiar with thermal weapons. They have already begun fighting evil spirits, and the battle losses are unknown.
There was also the 10,000-strong Drawing Army led by Golwuzi. Although the relationship between Reggie and Chris was tense, it was not to the point of stabbing him in the back, so Reggie transferred Golwuzi back, but he didn't know it for a while.
Where should they be supported?
The battle in Jinguang City is very difficult, and the battle in Hanfeng Fortress is even more difficult. The territory of the Western Region is too vast, and a gap may be torn open by evil spirits at any time.
Ten thousand reinforcements seemed like a lot, but there were many places where soldiers were needed. Reggie was at a loss. He needed help from a think tank. Unfortunately, Bachelo's condition deteriorated.
He began to drink heavily and would hardly talk to anyone except when he was drunk. He suffered from severe forgetfulness and sometimes could not even remember his own name.
The house leaked and it rained all night. Fortunately, at this time, Yang Qiu was able to give some valuable suggestions from time to time.
"It's best for the army in Drawshaft City not to go anywhere, just let them stay in Shattering Snow City!"
Reggie frowned: "Do you want to guard against the Lion Country in the south?"
"I have never questioned your friendship with His Majesty Chris, nor do I think that the Lane people have the courage to attack you from behind. If they dare to do so, they will immediately become public enemies of the entire continent. I suggest that the army of Drawshaft City be left in Shattered City.
Snow City is to prevent evil spirits from suddenly appearing."
"What a joke. If they can't conquer the border, how can they appear in my territory?"
"This is not a joke. They did not break through the border of Bayer Country, but they still appeared in Bayer Country's territory. We don't understand how the evil spirits act. Although the chance is not high, if they appear in Shattering Snow City, we will
You must be prepared, you know the price of losing the capital!"
Reggie looked at Yang Qiu's expression carefully. The handsome boy in the past has turned into a handsome man in his early twenties. He is more mature and may become Bachelo's successor in the future, provided that he no longer maintains a relationship with Saga.
Such an ambiguous relationship.
His suggestion is very correct. If Broken Snow City falls, Broken Snow Country's technological system and industrial system will collapse immediately, and Reggie will completely lose the ability to fight against the evil.
But Golden Light City is about to fall, where can we find reinforcements?
Yang Qiu's suggestion was to transfer the orcs from Blackstone Island.
"Twenty smelting plants have been built on Blackstone Island. After the smelting plants are put into operation, more work will be handed over to the craftsmen. It will be difficult for the orc warriors with rough temperaments to play their role. Instead of letting them follow Kui Sha to cause trouble on the island,
It's better to let them come out to fight. As far as I know, there are already more than 50,000 orc warriors on the island!"
Yang Qiu's suggestion was very attractive, but another young think tank rejected his idea.
Diad did not recommend letting the orcs leave Blackstone Island: "You can ask Master Flashsha if those orcs are really willing to fight for you?
They don’t know you well, and they don’t know much about Shattering Snow Kingdom, but you know the fighting power of the orcs. If they have other plans, they don’t need fifty thousand troops, but only ten thousand troops can turn Golden Light City upside down!
Let them continue to mine coal on Blackstone Island. They must first learn to draw a clear line between themselves and Kuisha, and they must not be allowed to approach other cities easily."
"That's like a mandala flower..." Yang Qiu obviously had different views on Diad's suggestion, but he didn't like arguments and left the problem to Reggie in silence.
Reggie asked Diad: "If you can't trust the orcs, can you find other reinforcements?"
"Don't forget our alliance. I would like to send a letter of request for help to the alliance leader as an envoy."
"The request for help has been sent a long time ago, but I didn't receive any reply!" Reggie said with a bitter smile, "You can go to the Golden Eagle Country for me and point your finger at Alfred's nose and curse him for being shameless!"
Reggie didn't count on the allies. He believed they would come to help, but I'm afraid they would wait for a while to see the excitement first. Letting Snow Breaking Country be weakened to a certain extent was something that everyone was looking forward to.
Reggie took the lead in getting in touch with Flashsha, and Flashsha proved Diad's worries. Quesha was very restless, and he still had many supporters. Most of the orcs on Blackstone Island were far from being interested in Shattered Snow Country.
loyalty.
But some people may be able to surprise Reggie. With the efforts of An Ke, at least nearly 4,000 orcs have developed a strong sense of identification with the Shattered Snow Country. They have the basic conditions to go to the battlefield. The only thing missing is
Knowledge of thermal weapons.
Four thousand orc soldiers were too few in number and could not go into battle immediately. Reggie's problem was still not solved, but the pungent burnt smell interrupted his thoughts.
The enemy launched another attack, and Han Maple Fortress caught fire again. Like a madman, Will Rogers led the soldiers to attack the fire demon. For an impulsive general like him, if an accident occurs, it is likely to harm the entire army.
This attack was very violent. In the whole afternoon of fighting, at least 300 fire demons were thrown onto the city, taking away more than 600 soldiers with the efficiency of one for two.
The second army's battle losses exceeded those of the three armies, and the defense of Hanfeng Fortress had become stretched thin.
The most annoying thing is that these damn demons just run away after fighting. Every time Reggie sends troops to attack, he will be ambushed and will lose at least 30% of his soldiers.
The endless consumption gave Reggie a splitting headache. This was not a metaphor, but a real headache. Reggie was so painful that he even vomited yellow bile. His severe anxiety caused his body to suffer from a condition.
Fortunately, Camila brought the mandala with her. After the pain subsided, Reggie broke away from Mi'er's arms and began to concentrate on considering Yang Qiu's suggestion.
"Mandala is poisonous, but it can also save lives. I need it to save my life..."
Reggie is preparing to recruit orc soldiers on a large scale. The first batch will be 20,000, 10,000 will be used to support Jinguang City, and the other 10,000 will be used to support Hanfeng Fortress.
He also issued a conscription order to the whole country, and new recruits could be put into the battlefield after three months of training.
The recruitment order seems to be a little late. Golden Light City may not be able to survive for even a month, and the new orc soldiers will have to undergo at least a month of training before they can set foot on the battlefield.
"We must divide troops from the First Army, but not too much. They still have some small towns that need to be garrisoned..."
Reggie planned to demolish the east wall to repair the west wall, but suddenly he heard a message from Will.
"Sir, Your Majesty Chris is here and is waiting outside the fortress."
