Reckless Through The New World

The deployment of the army, of course, cannot be concealed from the conscientious.

Although there are no military satellites in this world, there are strategic magics that can carry out rough reconnaissance in a very large area, and there are air force units that can cruise at high altitudes and observe the situation on the ground at any time. While the costs of both are high, they are all affordable and necessary for the state.

That's why the Thracian army set off from the border, and before they officially left the territory of the Thracian Kingdom, the Terrera Kingdom had already discovered it.

In the game, the Thracians attacked Trela ​​in three ways. According to the plot, Trela ​​didn't find it - at least until the Thracians came to the city, they didn't find it. Therefore, it will lead to the complete collapse of all fronts, and this war has been at a disadvantage from the beginning.

But the game is different from reality. If the "history" in the game wants to become "reality", it must naturally meet the conditions of reality.

The three-way army attacked together, but the magician and the air force of Trela ​​didn't know anything? Then they were either bribed and used as traitors, or they were addicted to mobile phones and affected their eyesight!

Anthony was woken up at night by the intelligence officer. The intelligence officer he promoted was not very old, but he was usually quite calm, and he felt very young and mature in his work. But today, he had a panicked look on his face, and there was an indescribable pallor on his face.

"Lord Count! There is news from the capital that there is a Thracian army heading to the border, look at the direction... it is coming towards us!"

Of course Anthony knew about it. The Thracian cavalry had just left the city, and the rock band that was touring there had already told everyone the news. So he said calmly: "Calm down! Don't say that we may not lose this battle. Even if we do, we have to wait until the Thracians come and fight before we need to worry. You panic now. What is Zhang Di doing?"

The intelligence officer nodded again and again, and his expression gradually calmed down.

"What did the Royal Capital say specifically?" Anthony asked.

"Judging from the results of the magic detection, there should be about 10,000 soldiers in the front. The follow-up baggage and auxiliary soldiers are relatively small, and the ratio of arms is a little strange." The intelligence officer said.

Anthony was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said nothing, nodded to show that he knew, and let the intelligence officer back down.

After the intelligence officer left, he hurriedly opened the chat channel and asked eagerly, "Is there anyone on the southeastern border of Thrace? Please help to investigate. How many people are in the Thracian army?"

The Harmony of the Raiders team immediately replied: "According to the plot, it should be 3,000 cavalry in the vanguard, followed by 5,000 infantry, a total of 8,000 people."

"But news came from the capital just now that there are tens of thousands of soldiers alone, and the baggage and auxiliary soldiers are still uncertain..."

The transmigrators were shocked and asked what happened.

They are no longer the otaku scholars they were when they first crossed the border. After years of exploration, many people have a good understanding of military and war, especially those like Uniero, Nicholas and others, who are already pulling the team to erect flags and establish its own military force. They naturally know that "troop strength" and "combat strength" are two completely different things, and "soldier" and "combat soldier" are also two completely different concepts.

Ten thousand troops, nothing to be afraid of. If Tara Khan is willing, he can pull an army of 20,000 to 30,000 in just a few days.

But 10,000 soldiers... this is a bit scary.

Soldiers mean troops that have undergone full-time training and have reached a certain level of military capability and military discipline. If there is no military confrontation of the same level, as long as a few thousand soldiers are enough to sweep through the ordinary troops of tens of thousands of people.

This is like the famous battle of Changping in ancient China. The Zhao army said that there were 400,000 troops. In fact, the number of soldiers was not many. People, many of whom were even civilians—according to the estimate of one soldier with three auxiliary soldiers, the Zhao army’s soldiers should not exceed 100,000 at most.

The so-called army of 400,000 people is actually just a bloated fat pig. It's enough to win the battle. Once they are surrounded by unfavorable terrain, the morale of those auxiliary soldiers will drop to almost nothing. Even though Zhao Kuo knew a lot of combat strategies, in order to avoid the collapse of the entire army, he could only honestly form his own camp and wait for support - he had no choice. Once the soldiers failed to attack, the entire army was likely to collapse completely at once. . In fact, that was exactly the case. After he had been waiting for days for reinforcements, and finally tried to break through and died in battle, the army of 400,000 surrendered all at once.

Auxiliary soldiers can't be done without him, but many times, they are really dragging their feet. Why was Qin State able to defeat the rest of the countries? The several major victories led by Bai Qi wiped out the elite troops of various countries is one aspect; Qin's auxiliary troops were far more capable than those of other countries, and played a decisive role in the Qin-Zhao War and the Qin-Chu War. extremely important reason.

With Tara Khan's strength, at present there are only no more than 4,000 soldiers in full calculation. There are about 2,000 new troops directly under the earl's direct training. The various lords under his command should be able to make up 2,000 people. . This is almost bankrupt, and it is impossible to make more.

But the Thracians pulled out 10,000 soldiers at once! Are they really planning to fight Trela ​​to the death?

"Is it the southeastern border of Thrace? We can rush there as soon as possible." Sword Master Brad (Sword Thirteen) said, "It happens that I am free at this time, so let's run."

"I'm flying over there," said Atlas the Griffin. "When we get there, I'll investigate and tell you the details."

The next afternoon, Atlas first spotted the Thracian army preparing to encamp.

Looking at the well-ordered army below, he was immediately startled. He was about to observe carefully, but suddenly felt a murderous attack, and quickly dodged without saying a word.

But his action was still a little late, and a sharp arrow shot from the ground into the sky, hitting his left chest. Neither the light chain mail nor the strong body could block the arrow, and as the arrow pierced through the body, strong poison was emitted.

"Damn! Cloud-piercing arrows are poisonous arrows..." Atlas only had time to scold this sentence, and he turned into a light spot in the air and disappeared without a trace.

A moment later, he was resurrected in the castle hall with a gloomy face.

"What's the matter? Didn't you go to investigate?" Sanyu asked in surprise, "Encountered by the opponent's air force interception? Or was it sapped by the mage on the ground?"

"Neither." Atlas said in a deep voice, "I let someone shoot an arrow to death with a legendary skill-in that army, there is Emmy Wei Sislin, the 'Sky Bow'!"
