Chapter 239: Mixed Blessings

In the northern campaign, the Condor Leader won a complete victory, capturing more than 700,000 enemy troops, of which 170,000 of Qin Lang's Ten Thousand Beast Legions chose to surrender, and the other prisoners of war were all prisoners of the Terrans.

The Ten Thousand Beast Legion brought a lot of casualties to the Condor Leader's side, but they also suffered heavy losses themselves, especially when they were surrounded by the Condor Leader's major legions, and the orc warriors fell forever.

If it weren't for their deputy legion leader Ape XVIII who chose to surrender in time, I'm afraid that more orc warriors would have died on the spot.

Among the 170,000 orc warriors who surrendered, 10,000 were tiger warriors, 50,000 were ape warriors, 80,000 were werewolf warriors, and 10,000 were wolf cavalry.

These warriors are all the main battle races in the orc race, so if Ning Yuan can assimilate them, then the military strength of the Condor Leader will directly rise to a big level.

Moreover, because Ning Yuan has never plundered the orc civilization, he has been coveting the wolf cavalry of the werewolf clan for a long time, and this time he finally fulfilled his wish.

Although most of these wolves are male wolves, as long as there are female wolves and druids, Ning Yuan is not worried about not being able to breed wolves on a large scale, but he is now a little worried that his territory cannot afford the rations of so many wolves.

Because the wolf is a pure carnivorous animal, and the Condor Leader seems to be still cultivating the Earth Brown Bear, the Polar Ice Bear, the Thunder Eagle and the Jade Dragon, you know, these ancestors also like to eat meat.

Therefore, with so many wolves coming at once, I am afraid that the various meat resources of the Condor Territory will be very tight.

Although these wolves are not very picky eaters, as long as it is meat, whether it is fish or mutton, there is nothing they do not eat.

But there are so many of them that once they do start to be raised on a large scale, the population can quickly multiply several times.

However, considering the super high mobility and combat effectiveness of the wolf cavalry, if it is not raised on a large scale, it will be a tyrannical thing, and Ning Yuan will not be reconciled.

So he plans to wait for the war here to end, and start raising all kinds of poultry and livestock on a large scale to meet the growing demand for meat in his territory.

Anyway, with the Colorful Harvest Mountain and these captured strategic materials, the Condor Leader will no longer worry about the food problem in a short period of time, and it is time to take this opportunity to re-plan the food production model of the Condor Territory.

The land still has to be planted, but with the Colorful Harvest Mountain, the Condor Leader can no longer reclaim wasteland on a large scale as before, and Ning Yuan can completely adapt measures to local conditions according to the natural environment of various places.

Where it is suitable for farming, you can continue to grow a variety of crops, and then build some farms where appropriate.

In this way, it can not only solve the problem of fertilizer source, but also turn some weeds and straw into food for livestock.

There is no need to continue to reclaim the land that is not suitable for cultivating crops, and it can be directly turned into a breeding base to raise some poultry and livestock.

Although the natural enemies of those livestock and poultry have basically disappeared, now that there is a larger top food chain predator of the Condor Territory, there is no need to worry about these livestock flooding, Ning Yuan is now worried that there will not be enough poultry and livestock to be raised inside the Great Wall.

Of course, these are just beautiful ideas now, because they can't be realized if the Condor Territory can't be at peace.

In this battle, under the excellent command of James Storm, although the Condor Leader won a complete victory, the losses of his own legion were also very huge, and the biggest loss was the Condor Guard, which resisted the enemy orc legion.

The Condor Guard can be said to be the most elite legion in the Condor Territory.

They have the best weapons and armor, the most rigorous training, and the most suitable commanders for them, but they are all human after all, so when they encounter the class that inherently restrains them, they will also fall into a disadvantage.

The Condor Guards belong to the heavy infantry, each of them is armed to the teeth, and it can be said that they are invulnerable, but they are not invincible, and some powerful troops are their nemesis.

When it comes to power, the first thing that comes to mind is some of the ace races in the orc race, such as the lion people, the tiger people, the minotaurs, the bear people, the ape people, the wild boar people, and so on.

And the vanguard of Qin Lang's Ten Thousand Beast Legion was composed of the ape-man race and the tiger human race, and these two races happened to be the representatives of infinite power.

Although their equipment was not as good as that of the Condor, they were armed with some heavy weapons with great lethality, so as soon as the two armies fought, they brought huge casualties to the Condor.

Ning Yuan's men also had orc heavy infantry, so he knew how terrifying the impact of these orcs was when they charged.

If he were to take command, he would definitely send the white heavy infantry to the top, and he would not be willing to touch the enemy's sharpest spear with the Condor.

Although the white hoplites have excellent defense, their attack power is insufficient, and if they are really sent up, I am afraid that they will be easily defeated by the enemy orc legions, because it is difficult for them to inflict large-scale damage on the enemy.

The Condor Guards, on the other hand, are a group of hoplites known for their attacks, although they are also hoplites.

Although when the two armies first came into contact, the orc legion brought a great sense of oppression to the Condor Guard with its impact and sharpness.

But as the two armies fell into hand-to-hand combat, and the orcs lost that impact, the Condor quickly stabilized their position with a tight formation, and began to gradually regain their disadvantage.

As the Condor Guard began to stabilize its position and inflict a large number of casualties on the enemy, the enemy's sharpest spear was successfully resisted by the Condor Leader's side, and then the initiative in this battle finally fell to the Condor Leader's side.

Immediately after that, the Condor led the entry of other elite legions, and the victory was completely decided.

The enemy's ordinary legions were not opponents at all, and the heavy cavalry legions led by Ning Yuan personally cut through the enemy's formation several times, and the enemy's defeat was logical.

The Condor Leader's side was able to achieve the final victory, and the Condor Praetorian Guard led by Shen Wanli could be said to have made great contributions.

It was they who resisted the enemy's most elite Ten Thousand Beast Legions, buying precious time for the other legions, and the Condor Leader's side was able to achieve a complete victory.

As the first elite legion of the Condor Leader, and also the one that Ning Yuan invested the most, the Condor Guard reflected their value and played a decisive role, and they lived up to Ning Yuan's expectations of them.

It stands to reason that Ning Yuan should be proud of them after seeing such a result, but when he saw the number of casualties counted, he couldn't be happy.

The 60,000 Condor Praetorian Guards lost nearly 10,000 killed and 20,000 seriously wounded, losing half of their combat strength at once.

Moreover, according to the report of the military doctor, although the lives of the 20,000 seriously injured were saved, I am afraid that at least more than half of them will be directly discharged.

Because the injury is so serious, even if it is healed, it will be difficult to return to the previous state.

If the tendons and veins were broken, Ning Yuan could still count on the black jade intermittent cream, but Ning Yuan was helpless against this kind of bone fragmentation and visceral injuries caused by the huge force.

He could only ask the medical officers to take proper care of the wounded and arrange for them to retire when they were healed.
