Chapter 56: The World

And these two armies are the army led by Hou Yizhi and the army of Baima Gongsun.

But in an instant, the Red Emperor took Wang Zhenling across a distance of more than a thousand miles and came to the edge of the battlefield.

But I saw two armies fighting, although the white horse Gongsun soldiers and horses were elite, although the Gongsun iron cavalry was unparalleled.

However, the strength of the army was less than 100,000, and the 200,000 or so troops who resisted Hou Yizhi were somewhat unable to catch and fell into a slight disadvantage.

The battle between the two sides was in full swing, and dozens or hundreds of soldiers were killed at every moment, and the blood of the fight was so permeated that the entire battlefield seemed to be sealed by the bloody aura.

At such times, even any holy person will not want to intervene in the war.

Even Wang Zhenling and the Red Emperor were all outside the bloody canopy of dozens of miles, watching all this with their divine senses from afar.

"No wonder Hou Yizhi will take the initiative to attack, if Gongsun Baima has no other hole cards, I am afraid that the army will lose with this point!"

Gongsun Baima occupied the three states of Shading Guan, which was still rich, but the two states of Shading were not ready, they were quite barren and the population was not large, and there was Wuhu as a border trouble.

Coupled with the iron horse of the white horse grandson, it is extremely wealth-consuming, and one requires two or three hundred thousand dollars.

Therefore, Gongsun Baima's strength is limited after all, and it will not exceed 150,000, and the total number of possible troops is about 120,000.

And at this time, on the battlefield, the strength of Baima Gongsun is almost 1120,000, it should be said that it has been exhausted.

Under Hou Yizhi's army of 220,000, he barely insisted on a draw.

Even, with the passage of time, it will gradually fall into disadvantage.

If Wang Zhenling is Hou Yizhi, seeing the elite of Gongsun Baima, the fighters are rare, maybe he will not wait for the reinforcements to arrive, and he will fight a decisive battle directly, right?

After all, if you wait for the reinforcements to arrive and gather an army of three or four hundred thousand at once, then Baima Gongsun will definitely not seek a decisive battle.

When the time comes, they will only hide back in Guanzhou......

Then in this war, you can only attack the level, seize the city, and advance little by little.

When the time comes, I don't know when this battle will end......

The longer the war lasts, the greater the economic pressure.

The supply of food and grass for an army of three or four hundred thousand every day was an astronomical amount.

Without a sufficient supply of oil and protein, during the high-intensity war, each soldier had to eat two or three catties of grain a day.

10,000 people need 900,000 catties of grain a month, equivalent to 9,000 stones.

In such an era, the high yield per mu is only three or four hundred catties of grain, that is, three or four stone grains.

The monthly military rations of the 10,000-strong troops are equivalent to a year's grain harvest of 2,000 or 3,000 mu of land.

An army of 400,000 is 360,000 stone a month, which is equivalent to a year's harvest of 120,000 acres of land.

If the war drags on for too long, if Guanzhou is attacked, the sky must be broken, and then the battle for one city and one place will be won, then it is not surprising that this war will last for two or three years.

In this way, you can calculate how much food has been consumed after this war!

This is still the food that people eat, and it does not count the loss of the road.

In such times, transporting a stone of grain to the front line requires two to three times as much food, and the farther the distance, the more it is consumed.

In addition, the grain and grass for the war horses to eat, as well as bows and arrows, firewood, vegetables, armor, military uniforms, shoes and hats, bedding, medicines, people's husbands, and wood needed to make siege equipment......

The war was too long, and it is not an exaggeration to fight the people and their money.

This is still the war of the classical era, if it is placed in Wang Zhenling's previous life, a shell is tens of thousands, and a high-tech precision-guided missile is millions or tens of millions.

After a casual small-scale war, military spending can directly soar to the 100 billion level.

If it's a real big war, don't say that there is a real fight, I'm afraid just think about it, the finance ministers of those countries will strangle themselves with ties.

In short, having said so much, it must be Hou Yizhi who saw that the fighter was rare, so he seized the opportunity to fight.

If Wang Zhenling is in Hou Yizhi's position, he is likely to make such a choice!

However, despite saying this, for some reason, Wang Zhenling felt more and more uneasy in his heart.

Where are the eccentric armies that emerged from the edge of the world?

Although the troops that Wang Zhenling saw were only more than 2,000, their strength was not necessarily very strong.

But they didn't show up, which was very strange and gave Wang Zhenling a rather uneasy feeling.

And the reinforcements of the southbound battalion are estimated to be able to reach this war in five days at the earliest.

Once there is any emergency, I am afraid that Hou Yizhi will suffer a big loss!

When Wang Zhenling thought so, he heard the Red Emperor laughing lightly beside him: "This time the Blue Emperor is in trouble!"

Hou Yizhi's defeat this time is decided, it depends on whether he loses big or small?"

At such a time, no one in the world knew that Hou Yizhi's backstage was the Green Emperor.

After Hou Yizhi was canonized as the king of Lian, he set up the temple of the Qing Emperor and built the color of the service.

Wang Zhenling asked: "What about the big loss? What about the small loss?"

The Red Emperor smiled slightly and said, "The big defeat must be killed on the spot and the whole army will be annihilated."

And if you lose, you will run away alone, leaving your life behind, and you will have a chance to make a comeback!"

Wang Zhenling was shocked when he heard this, the end was so miserable, and he couldn't help but think that there would be such a change, then it must be because of the strange army that appeared on the edge of the world!

"How could the edge of the earth crack and the mysterious military land that appeared in it came from?" Wang Zhenling couldn't help but ask.

The Red Emperor smiled slightly and said, "I seem to have told you last time that this side of the world is just like a person, and there is a process of birth, old age, sickness and death.

And this process of the world is called the ...... of decay."

Success, living and corruption are very simple, and you can understand them as soon as you hear them.

Formed, solidified, decayed, perished.

"Yes, the emperor told me last time, then the Dharma world is in the process of decay!" Wang Zhenling said.

The Red Emperor nodded slightly and said with a smile: "That's right, that is a world that has entered the countdown to destruction and is experiencing the final decay.

The so-called spiritlessness is actually the loss of the vitality of the world.

Don't look at the Dharma world, there are still so many people living in it, civilization is still developing, and it may even exist for tens of thousands of years, hundreds of thousands, millions of years......

But that world, in our eyes, is just a decaying shell of old age. ”

"Our world is different, our world is a new world full of life......

Well, to use an analogy, it's just past infancy!" the Red Emperor laughed.

But what does this have to do with what I'm asking?
