Chapter 664 Chapter 623 Not crazy!Not a saint!

When Du Wei saw Gabriel, the young brother's armor of a commanding officer had been dyed bright red, there was still a piece of minced meat hanging on his shoulder armor, and blood stains remained on his face. But Gabriel looked very excited. As soon as he saw Du Wei, he rushed up, hugged Du Wei fiercely, and rubbed against Du Wei's body with most of his blood stains. "Okay!" Du Wei pushed his younger brother away, looked up and down carefully, and made sure that his younger brother was not seriously injured, so he was relieved. In today's first battle, out of selfishness to protect his younger brother, Du Wei placed his infantry regiment behind the army's infantry shield wall in a relatively low order.

After all, this is Gabriel's first battle. Even if he is a brave young man, it's better not to let him take on too dangerous missions in the first battle.A little bit of proper discipline will suffice. But looking at Gabriel's blood stained body, it is obvious that he is still charging very fast... "Did you lose your team and rush to the front alone?" Du Wei lowered his face and glanced at his younger brother. "I killed at least six orcs today!" Gabriel looked excited. He seemed to have not noticed Du Wei's sinking face, and he still shouted excitedly: "One of them is probably an officer, because I saw it on the head. The helmets he wears are different from other orcs."

"Let me ask you, did you leave your team and rush forward alone?" Du Wei lowered his voice. "This..." Only then did Gabriel notice the strangeness in his brother's tone, he quickly shrank his head, and said a little nervously: "I...after the fight started, the scene was a bit chaotic, I only knew to rush forward...and didn't care about it .” Du Wei took a deep breath, and was about to reprimand his younger brother, but seeing the excitement and excitement on the young man's face, as well as the anticipation in the eyes staring at him, it was as if someone who had achieved outstanding results hoped to Like a child who is praised by his elders.

Du Wei thought for a while, and felt that it was his brother's first battle after all. If he scolded him fiercely, it would probably hurt the young man's self-confidence, so he sighed and patted him on the shoulder: "Good job, you You acted bravely and didn't lose our father's face!" Gabriel's eyes turned red at this moment, he lowered his head, wiped his eyes quickly, raised his head, and looked at Du Wei seriously, but suddenly lowered his voice, and said in a low voice: "Brother, I see...today I shouldn't go forward recklessly, as an officer, I have some negligence...Although you don't have the heart to scold me. But..."

As he said that, he took the initiative to hold Du Wei's hand, and looked eagerly into Du Wei's eyes: "I promise, I will never be so reckless next time!" Du Wei smiled with satisfaction.The younger brother still understands very well in his heart, that's all right.Not in vain for my painstaking efforts to love him. "It's just..." Gabriel scratched his head again, and said with a wry smile, "I know you love me, but next time, don't put me at the end of the line. Brother... Of course you are doing it for my own good. But let me Others will look down on me when they see it, and they will only regard me as a useless pustule protected by you!"

Du Wei's heart moved, and he knew that his protective posture seemed a little inappropriate. The two brothers looked at each other and laughed a few times. ... The fire burned for a full day. On the second day, with the combined efforts of Du Wei's troops and magicians, the fire in the city was finally brought under control. It was not until the next night that the fire was completely extinguished. But what was left of this originally majestic fortress was only a dilapidated wall and ruins. Trampling on the rubble, Du Wei walked on the ruins of the fortress. Looking around, there were thick smoke rising from some places.

"Three years, millions of gold coins and tens of thousands of manpower, it's a magnificent city." He sighed. The human infantry had already crossed the ruins from both sides, and 5,000 troops were stationed in the shallows on the south bank of the river, as an early warning to defend against criminals crossing the river at any time. "Fortunately, although the fire was fierce and burned away the buildings on the ground, the foundations of most of the buildings are still there, and the outline of the city wall still remains a lot. It shouldn't be a problem to rebuild it. It's just... time is a tricky issue During the construction of the city, criminals will definitely harass us non-stop."

Du Wei frowned deeply. This battle basically achieved the strategic goal he had conceived before.A big victory effectively numbs the army and stimulates it to a high level! Look at the soldiers who are now working back and forth, cleaning the battlefield and the ruins of the city, with confident and proud smiles on their faces.There is a huge difference between that expression and the numb and panic-stricken appearance when I first arrived in Yajin City a few days ago. At the same time, humans have regained the south bank. Strategically, there is no need to worry about criminals using this fortress as a base to launch a southward invasion at any time—although Luoxue said that it does not plan to go south in a large scale, but after all, this is a war, not a show, the enemy said Even if it was Luo Xue, he couldn't believe it all.

As for the third... Du Wei suddenly sneered, the corners of his mouth curved a little, his eyes were cold... Luoxue, you are really generous and ruthless! Are you using the 60,000 orc army as cannon fodder? ! You "saint" are indeed crazy! But, it’s okay, let me touch your bottom line-it’s ridiculous, didn’t you say you want to be a saint?But now it seems that your so-called "sage" is only kind to your elves! After the battle, Du Wei quickly noticed a difference. In this battle, the victory was brilliant, but in general, the army of criminals who stayed behind to resist were all orcs!None of the elves participated in the battle!

If there are elves participating in the battle, then even if you have griffin cavalry - but the number of griffin knights is too small after all, sneak attacks are fine. With the title of Slytherin, if you want to deal with thousands of elves head-on - not much, as long as the opponent has more than 3,000 elf fighters in the air, and only a hundred griffin knights, you can only retreat, even if you die Even if you set fire, you will never dare to fight!It is absolutely impossible to obtain such brilliant results! What's more, air power, they also have dragons! The elves did not participate in the war. Even if the orcs were defeated later, the elves on the north bank of the river did not have a single soldier to support them. It was just that when some human troops were dazzled by the victory, they rushed to the river and tried to cross the river to pursue them. Only then did the warriors of the elves appear to stop them, but then the human army retreated, and the elves died down.

Originally, Du Wei brought the magician into the battle, and he was ready to bear considerable losses.He predicted in his heart that he had one hundred griffin cavalry and thirty magicians on his side. If he encountered a large number of elf warriors defending the sky and dragons to help him, then his side would definitely suffer huge damage.Even if he risked his life to set fire - in the worst case, Du Wei even planned to fight all the hundred griffin riders at best! and…… ... "Beheaded more than 37,000 enemies, and captured... less than 2,000?" After Du Wei finished reading the reported statistics, his face immediately sank. On top of the ruins of the fortress, a temporary camp was re-established at the original position of the Commander's Mansion in the city. In the big tent, many generals gathered here to report after the battle. But when Du Wei saw the statistics, his face sank! "Hmph, less than two thousand..." Du Wei was about to say something, but seeing the expressions of disapproval on the faces of all the generals in the tent, he sighed in his heart—the hatred has already been buried. This is not a battle of annihilation, but a battle of defeat.According to common sense, it is unlikely that there will be such an imbalance in the ratio of the number of beheaded and captured enemies. Then the only explanation is that the following people concealed the actual situation: hatred, which made human soldiers become popular at the end of the battle. Eyes, slaughter all the captured orcs!Even... Many military officers acquiesced or encouraged this behavior. Du Wei sighed. He knew that if he pursued this kind of matter at this moment, it would arouse the resentment of his generals. After all, since the beginning of the war, the orcs had committed various indelible acts of hatred towards humans... For example, the orcs even treated humans as human beings. food!This alone is enough to make human beings treat these enemies with extreme hatred. As the head coach himself—— Compassion does not command soldiers! Du Wei gritted his teeth, his face calmed down, and deliberately threw the statistics aside: "What else? What about our brother's injuries?" Seeing the seriousness on Du Wei's face dissipate, all the generals breathed a sigh of relief. Many people in this big tent were involved in the massacre of prisoners of war.The remaining two thousand prisoners of war were left by some officers who had been captured by the enemy. But…… He couldn't help but feel a little complicated——Luoxue, you have already forged such hatred, do you still want to be a saint and seek peace? is it possible?snort! "My lord." The statistical officer handed over the second data. Du Wei took a look at it, and was troubled in his heart. The casualties were close to 20,000, of which more than 15,000 were killed, and the rest were seriously injured and disabled, and the wounded who had completely lost their combat capabilities. As for the slightly injured and temporarily lost their combat effectiveness, there were also close to 4,000. Adding it all up, my current subordinates are equal to nearly 25,000 attrition in one battle. He set fires everywhere again, blocked the opponent's back, outflanked his two wings, and threw in one of his trump cards, "Thunder Cavalry". As a result, the ratio of casualties in this crushing battle actually reached about 1:1.5? Even though they were defeated, the fighting power of the orcs was indeed strong!If it wasn't for the lightning cavalry that broke down the opponent's formation, the ratio of casualties between the two sides in this battle, I am afraid that humans would not have much advantage. Oh, by the way, there are also the casualties of Thunder Cavalry, this number is not included in it! In this battle, the Thunder Cavalry rushed back and forth, and later defeated the opponent's Wolf Cavalry head-on. According to statistics after the battle, the Thunder Cavalry suffered over a thousand damage.This result is not bad, but for Du Wei, he still feels very distressed! Everyone was amazed, when did the Tulip family produce such a strong army, especially these cavalry, the temperament they displayed one by one, they were undoubtedly genuine elite soldiers!But the Northwest Tulip family has experienced the battle of defending Gilliat and the war to annihilate the rebels of the Northwest Legion.But for the former, as we all know, Du Wei only had two or three thousand cavalry at the time, while for the latter, the war lasted not long... But only Du Wei and some core figures in the family knew how much thought Du Wei had spent on the establishment of this Lightning Cavalry! ! Elite soldiers are made by fighting, not by training—everyone understands this truth. The origin of this thunder cavalry is also mysterious: after Du Wei reached a cooperation agreement with Saladin on the grassland, in addition to supplying Saladin with weapons and supplies, Du Wei also secretly sent troops directly into the grassland and belonged to Saladin Fighting under his command, he only pretends to be Saladin's subordinates on weekdays. For more than three years, these troops have been rotated every year. Gradually, Du Wei sent a group of troops from his family into the grassland. With the help of the melee area of ​​the grassland, Saladin annexed the tribes one by one. In the process, participating in the war, honed batch after batch of troops into real elite troops! This is a very difficult job: the number of each batch of dispatched troops has been controlled, and if there are too many, it will not work, and traces will be exposed.Too little is useless, too little is useless. You can't help Saladin too much, lest the power of the prairie wolf expand too quickly and exceed your control. In the past three years, batches of elite knights have been honed from the grassland battlefields, and they were injured during the period, which made Du Wei feel guilty—is this kind of training too cruel? ! However, objectively, such a battle also strengthened Du Wei's control over the grassland situation!Battle after battle aroused hatred among the various tribes on the grassland. While Saladin's power expanded, it also made more and more tribes on the grassland unite to fight against Saladin. As a result, such an elite Thunder Cavalry was created!These people were honed in battles with the prairie people who were known as the strongest cavalry! Of course, to carry out this extremely dangerous "actual combat training", this Thunder Cavalry, the treatment of the cavalry, even in the Tulip family, is the highest. "My lord, we have won this battle! How do you write the military newspaper to the imperial capital?" In the big tent, after a general spoke, many people looked at Du Wei eagerly.For such an unprecedented victory since the start of the war, the rewards in the imperial capital must be very heavy! You are all members of the army, what is the purpose of fighting desperately?In addition to defending the glory of the empire and soldiers, who doesn't want to make great military exploits, win rewards from high-ranking officials and nobles, and make their families rich and well-clothed? Du Wei carefully observed the changes in the expressions of each of the generals under his command, and remembered them in his heart. He smiled lightly on his face: "Don't worry, everyone, I will write back to the imperial capital today to ask for credit for you!" Cheers. Immediately, many people were all beaming with joy, and some even clamored loudly, thinking that they should take advantage of the present and go all out to fight across the river, defeat the enemies on the north bank, and reap greater fruits of victory. After hearing this, Du Wei just smiled lightly and didn't say anything. Before the war, many of these guys fiercely opposed this counterattack... But now, hehe. With a slap in his heart, he faintly made some calculations... cleaning!Still need to clean! If you want to truly control this army, there are quite a few of these people who need to be purged!If I want this army to be firmly marked with my own brand...then, among the group of people in front of me, I must carefully distinguish them!Some of them can develop into their own direct descendants, while others can only be cleaned up! Perhaps, with this reward... a batch can be taken away? When he thought of this, he couldn't help laughing at himself... Unexpectedly, one day, I would have such thoughts. Luo Xue, you are both a saint and a lunatic. but I am not! I, Du Wei, am neither a saint nor a lunatic! I will only do it my own way!Go my own way!
