Text: The Great Power Battle_Chapter 377 The Battle of the World-Eve

800,000 officers and soldiers of the capital army, 500,000 troops of the Northern Army, and 800,000 troops of the Northern Navy, totaling about 2.1 million troops, were in Linyun County. Subsequently, with the three million people recruited in advance, carrying enough food for five million people to eat for a year, as well as tens of millions of war materials, they headed towards the border line where the western part of the Beichen Kingdom intersected with the Kingdom of the Undead.

The million-strong army of the Western Army all went south, cooperated with the 800,000-strong army of the rear army, and mobilized 700,000 garrison troops, a total of 2.5 million troops, and directly went south to invade the southern countries. He was accompanied by three million men, transporting supplies and, if necessary, fighting for the kingdom as an army.

The total number of troops of the two armies is 4.6 million, and it can be said that more than 80 percent of the troops of the Beichen Kingdom have been mobilized. The troops left behind in the country were only 200,000 of the capital army, 500,000 of the northern army, 200,000 of the northern navy, and 200,000 of the rear army. The elite troops of 1.1 million and the remaining garrison army of 1.3 million garrison troops are indeed a bit less than the thousands of miles of territory of Beichen Kingdom.

After all, here makes the game, not the real society of the previous ancient dynasties. In the previous ancient dynasties, it was able to raise more than 2 million soldiers and tens of millions of people, and it was the world's top empire. But here, without three million troops and tens of millions of people, you don't even count the Hou Kingdom. Even some counties can reach four or five million troops, not to mention more and more kingdoms.

Therefore, in a territory as large as the Beichen Kingdom, there must be one million people stationed on the border, one million people stationed in various cities in the country, and one million people stationed in important cities and passes. And a long and narrow border like the Xia Kingdom, the border line alone has to be watched by two million troops.

The news of the millions of troops in Beichen Kingdom, divided into two routes, and expanded separately, was like wings, and quickly spread all over the surrounding thousands of miles. After receiving the news of the dispatch of the Beichen army, many countries in full swing immediately stopped the war. One by one, heavy troops were mobilized to defend the country's north-south border.

Even, there were many enemies from the previous moment, who immediately shook hands and made peace, joined forces, jointly organized defense, and prepared to resist the Beichen army at any time.

The prestige of the Beichen Army has long been played out in one war after another in ten years. I don't know how many powerful countries have been reduced to ruins under the soldiers of the Beichen Kingdom. I don't know how many cities have become ghost towns that no one dares to live in until now.

In the past ten years, the enemies who have died on the road of expansion of the Beichen Kingdom have been incalculable, and the rough assessment is not less than twenty or thirty million, or even more. And for a long time, I haven't heard of any particularly damaging losses in Beichen Kingdom.

In the first battle of Shalu, the Beichen army was huge, with an army of tens of millions. However, it was overshadowed by the Japanese tribal countries, and lost two million troops in one go. Two million elite troops, what a concept. But in the eyes of Beichen Kingdom, it is simply trivial. As a result, after destroying the Shalu country, he destroyed the country of the sun that never sets with seven or eight million troops.

Although the Beichen State had the help of the Xia State at that time, the Xia State even restrained the four million troops of the Sun Never Setting Country. But if you talk about the results, Xia Guo can't catch up with Beichen Kingdom. Besides, the Beichen army went all the way north, losing millions of soldiers, and there were still such great achievements after years of fighting. Not to mention the fact that there are now millions of troops who have been recuperating for more than two years, wouldn't that soldier be even more unreliable.

The dispatch of millions of elite troops of the Beichen Army made everyone's hearts tighten, for fear that the Beichen Army would come in the direction of their country. And the millions of people who followed behind the millions of troops made the corners of everyone's mouths twitch.

On the dog day, he wears strong iron armor, holds a spear, or holds a Tang sword, hangs an iron shield on his arm, or carries a crossbow and arrows. Is such a well-equipped man and horse really just a force that transports grain and grass and baggage? Who are you fooling......

As a result, the six million people who transported grain and grass in Xiao Chen's eyes became a well-equipped army in the eyes of the surrounding countries. Coupled with the elite troops in front, tens of millions of Beichen troops fought out of the country, and once again held the military expansion of tens of millions of troops.

In the face of Beichen's soldiers, many people are naturally reluctant to fight. After all, in this Beichen country, it is a well-known overlord for a long time, and the cone is willing to provoke. When I saw the nearly six million Beichen Army marching directly westward towards another new overlord undead realm, I don't know how many people were cheering.

And all the way scattered into tens of thousands of horses and horses in each southward Beichen army, under the sneak day and night, instantly broke through dozens of cities close to the southern territory of Beichen Kingdom. Let the unsuspecting southern countries take a breath of cold air together.

It's so ruthless......

There are already so many large armies, and they still have to play some intrigues. Still, no one is to blame. The Beichen army used millions of people to disguise themselves as elite troops, which is indeed undetectable. The equipment and armor are the same, and they get up early every night to train, which makes everyone think that they are the main elite of the Beichen Army.

As a result, the millions of Beichen troops that had long been dispersed were directly divided into dozens of people, with each division in charge of a city to launch a sneak attack. In less than two days, forty-two cities were taken down in one go, which was definitely the most bullish record in the history of the Beacon Fire Continent.

Of course, not all the cities that were attacked were taken down. There are quite a few cities that are well prepared, and they did not let the Beichen army go down in a hurry. As for those well-guarded cities, the Beichen Army directly detoured. Anyway, you will fight anywhere, and cooperate with friendly forces to take down several cities around you, how can you be well prepared?

A plan to hide from the sky and the sea, no less than the darkness of the cold heart. The attack in the south was very smooth, and after sneaking up on dozens of cities in one go, Yun Qi and Zhang Han no longer knew what to look like.

Dozens of cities, these are cities that attack two countries at the same time, each with more than 20 cities, which is about the same. But this harvest is too bad, more than 20 cities in the southeast defense line, more than 200,000 beheadings of the Beichen Army, and more than 100,000 prisoners. The seized money was 350,000 taels of silver, not much grain, but the salt was millions of stones.

At present, although the players in the Beacon Continent are developing rapidly, the countries of inland players are still facing a big problem of salt shortage. It is too difficult to find a salt mine in the inland lake where salt can be boiled. Only in the coastal countries is there no shortage of salt, but it is also possible to make huge profits every year just by selling salt.

Just like the current Beichen Kingdom, the imperial court does not prohibit the coastal people from drying salt. However, the annual salt tax alone is enough to collect 30 million taels of silver. This is just a tax, fortunately, Xiao Chen didn't do his own official salt, otherwise he didn't know how much money he could make every year.

Millions of stone of salt were sold inland, and tens of millions of taels of silver could be earned. This alone is enough for Zhang Han and Yun Qi to wake up from sleep. You must know the regulations of the Beichen Army, all captures only need to be handed over half, and the rest is completely divided equally by the captured troops. In other words, the millions of elite troops under the command of Zhang Han and Yun Qi, as well as millions of people, can get more than 20 million taels of silver, to say the least. Even if it is divided equally, each person can get a few taels of silver.

Maybe a few taels of silver are completely inconspicuous to the generals of the Beichen Army, such as Zhang Han and Yun Qi. But for the soldiers under his command, that's a lot of silver.

The more than 20 cities won in the southwest will not be so profitable. After the first battle, at least 300,000 enemy troops were annihilated, and there were 1450,000 prisoners. The seized grain and grass weighed millions, and the money was only a few hundred thousand taels of silver.

This shows how big the gap is between coastal countries and inland players. It was only two hundred miles from the coast, but they didn't get any salt. Before the arrival of the Beichen Army, the two countries of the East and West Branch were still at war. The purpose is naturally needless to say, there is no place where salt is produced, and it will cost tens of millions of silver just to buy salt wine every year.

Even though these tens of millions of taels of silver are not paid by the government, no one can afford to carry tens of millions of taels of silver from the country every year. It's easy for silver to get out, but it's hard to get in.

Of course, the capture of the war does not mean that the Beichen Kingdom has much benefit. From a military point of view, the southwest is taking greater benefits. After all, the annihilation of 500,000 enemy horses in World War I is definitely distressing and half-dead compared to the enemy's army of only 2 million.

The smooth development of the war is the greatest interest of Beichen Kingdom. And the economic benefits are nothing more than to provide Beichen with some war continuity capabilities. However, in the now wealthy Beichen Kingdom, tens of millions of taels of silver are not worth mentioning at all. For this war, Beichen Kingdom has been preparing for two years, and the value of the materials in reserve is hundreds of millions, how can it be compared to tens of millions of taels of silver.

After overshadowing the countries in the south, the millions of troops immediately finished reorganizing and continued to press towards the south in a fair and honest manner. Two million elite troops, plus three million people who can go to the battlefield at any time, are simply all-encompassing. One city after another fell under the advance of the Beichen Army, and more and more enemies fell on the path of the Beichen Army's advance.

The gap in equipment and the superiority of the morale of the soldiers were often crushed in an instant when the Beichen army faced the enemy. The southern countries have not seen the strength of the Beichen Kingdom for several years. Even though he had overestimated the Beichen Army in his heart, he realized that he was still underestimating after a few battles.

I thought that after having the same ironclad equipment army as the Beichen Army, I would be able to fight evenly with the Beichen Army. Even if you don't have the advantage of troops, but you occupy the city, you won't be defeated in a battle. But that's the case, the Beichen Army has changed its outfit, Tang knives, crossbows, and spears are all sharp weapons that can break through the iron armor.

As for defending the city, it was even more miserable. When tens of thousands of Beichen troops attacked the small city independently, they could gather more than 300 catapults. Once the Beichen army exceeds 100,000, the gathered catapults will be at least more than a thousand. If it exceeds 500,000, then the catapult is completely the sea. If there are not tens of thousands, then there must be six or seven thousand fingers.

With such a huge siege machine, it is impossible to withstand the bombardment day and night in a strong city. There is no impenetrable pass, and this is admitted, even if you are strong, the dense sea of catapults is enough to submerge any pass with stones.

The war in the south is as planned, and the Beichen army has shown a trend of devastation, and all the enemies who dare to stand in front have all turned into chicken powder. On the other hand, the realm of the undead, which was originally the main strategic battlefield, was calm and waveless, and there was no sign that a big war was about to start.

Millions of troops, concentrated on the border, have never taken that step. The camp of hundreds of miles, like an ancient beast, lies across the earth, looking at the country of the undead. On the other side, the realm of the undead can only gather 10 million troops, most of which are the lowest level of small skeletons. In the face of the soldiers of the Beichen Army, they could only defend passively, and they still didn't want to attack.

The army of the undead is only stationed in important places in the city every day, but the Beichen army is also happy to be idle and does not attack at all. The oppressive atmosphere made the soldiers at the bottom on both sides depressed, is this tens of millions of troops here in the season, to meet each other? In the end, do you still want to fight?

Is Xiao Chen unwilling to fight, of course not. The war jumped on its own, and the army of the undead did not need to eat food, so they were naturally willing to wait. But the food that tens of millions of troops under his command eat every day is an astronomical amount, and the domestic reserves are a lot, but that is to last for two or three years.

The sooner the war ends, the better it will be, and the more grain and grass will be left in the country. However, the Taoist soldiers and monk soldiers are not in place yet, so naturally they can't start a war at will.

That's right, the monks and Taoist soldiers who were not in the sequence of the expedition had already acted secretly under Xiao Chen's orders. Strive to be in place as soon as possible, and say in one fell swoop that the tens of millions of undead in front of you were wiped out in one battle. However, because they were hiding before, they slowly slipped out after the army set off.

However, don't worry, it's in place soon. When the time comes, he will definitely surprise Arthas. Hehe, I'm not afraid that you will divide the troops, but I am afraid that you will not divide the troops. Originally, there were hundreds of millions of troops, and I was a little worried that 500,000 monks and 500,000 Taoist soldiers would not be able to do it. But now that the army of the undead is divided into several parts, what is there to be afraid of?

10 million undead army, it's really a lot, but in front of the master, you still have to kneel!

I hope those monks and Taoist priests can fight a beautiful battle. Strive to wipe out all these 10 million undead in a battle, and then go to the Xia army to help. Hundreds of millions of armies together can't be defeated even by gods, but if they are separated, then I'm sorry later......
