Chapter 1019 The Army Triumphs (1)

The general from the logistics department smiled and said, "I have calculated it several times, and it is indeed so correct."

"hehe."

Zhang Jue suddenly laughed out loud and said, "Actually, this kind of loss is not surprising. It even slightly exceeds my coach's estimate."

Everyone looked at him with surprise, even Liu Zhuwen was like this.

Marshal Zhang had already predicted that there would not be too many casualties?

How did he predict it?

At that time, the Imperial Guard of the Song Dynasty was indeed slightly suppressed by the Imperial Guard of the Dali. Logically speaking, the casualties should be quite large during that period alone.

"You guys haven't fully realized how powerful this new armor developed by the emperor is."

Zhang Jue smiled and shook his head, and then said, "At the beginning of this battle, our army was fierce. Just using the Shenlong gun, grenade launcher, sky thunder and other firearms, it cost the Dali imperial guards a huge price. You should have all discovered that after a long time of Mi Zhan, our army was a little tired, but this commander did not make any move to inspire the morale of the army. This commander intended to let the Dali imperial guards see hope, so that they could persevere until the Miao army commander arrived. We fought too hard, and they could not see hope, and they retreated soon and could not wipe them out."

Zhang Hongwei was puzzled, "Marson, we can see this now. But why did we suffer such little casualties during that period?"

"hehe."

Zhang Jue laughed again, "My Song Dynasty imperial guards have been trained for a long time, and most of them are old soldiers. They advance and retreat in moderation, and they are not panic when they are suppressed. They seem to be slowly suppressed, but in fact they are still preserved. We lack ammunition, so isn't Dali the same?"

As he said that, a little sneer appeared in his eyes, "How many soldiers can be killed with their swords, guns and arrows?"

Everyone in the entire tent was stunned.

yes!

Although the ammunition was used up before, the army was exhausted and was suppressed by the Dali imperial guards, the brothers under their command seemed to be in trouble and always maintained a rough formation.

The guys in Dali don’t have much thunder. With their cold weapons alone, they really can’t easily kill the soldiers of the Song Dynasty wrapped in new steel armor.

Looking back now, it seems that when the two sides were in a fierce hedge, there were more soldiers who died in battle.

As for the Shishi Army in the sky.

Those guys were blocked by the Flying Army and were blown away by the Sky Cannon formation, and it seemed that they could not throw away many thunder.

As I thought about it, more and more people began to grin.

Zhang Jue said at this time: "But don't be proud either. We seem to be a big victory in this battle, but in fact we can't be a big victory..."

He looked around the tent and said, "The emperor implemented a system of elite troops. All our imperial guards in the Song Dynasty were selected from the wing troops in various places after strict selection. Each imperial guard costs much more than the wing troops, and it is also much more than these Dali imperial guards. Including the dragon guns, armor, sky thunder, weapons, etc., the imperial court's investment in each imperial guard soldier is probably enough to allow Dali to raise five imperial guards. This time, although we destroyed more than 100,000 Dali imperial guards, our losses were close to 20,000. In this way, we did not actually take too much advantage."

Everyone in the tent was slightly moved.

Zhang Jue is right. The imperial guards of the Song Dynasty are powerful, but the price spent on training these soldiers is far from comparable to those of the Dali imperial guards.

To put it bluntly, the Song Dynasty imperial guards can have such strong combat power, and they are all piled up with money.

Every imperial guard is a treasure!

Thinking of this, the battle of attacking and liability is nearly 20,000 losses, which is really heartbreaking.

How many imperial guards were there in the Song Dynasty?

How many are there in Zhennan Military Region?

If the emperor did not implement the policy of elite troops, and at the same price as training 20,000 imperial guards, more than 100,000 soldiers might be trained.

Of course, combat effectiveness is definitely not comparable.

In the tent, Liu Zhuwen suddenly sighed, "The emperor is really... far-sighted..."

The elite military policy naturally has advantages.

Although the cost of training more than 200,000 imperial guards is enough to train more than one million soldiers like the Dali imperial guards, and their overall combat effectiveness may not be much different. However, recruiting more than 800,000 soldiers in the army means that more than 800,000 people are more than 800,000 people among the people. How much does this mean to the country?

In this era, there is not a large population, and every additional soldier is equivalent to a small amount of money. However, more people is equivalent to a more labor force.

Nowadays, isn’t labor force just productivity?

Zhang Jue gently patted the table and said, "Give me instructions and prepare to detach the camp! When the fallen soldiers are cremated, we will set off and return to the court."

Liu Zhuwen and others nodded one after another, then walked out of the tent.

The steps are generally easy.

This is inertial thinking.

In this era, at less than 20,000 enemy troops were destroyed at a price of less than 20,000, and three major cities were destroyed in a row. It was a great victory no matter how you look at it.

Soon, the white camp tents in the wilderness were dismantled and disappeared.

The imperial guards of the Song Dynasty were vast and guarding the grain trucks around Shanchan Mansion and heading eastward.

There were some brave people on the top of the city watching, perhaps surprised or curious, but no one could say it correctly.

They must have been a little confused about why the Song Dynasty imperial guards did not enter the city, but just burned down the government offices in the city and then went on a hurry.

But no matter what, this is a great joy for them.

In the battle between the national army, they could not get involved and had no idea to intervene. Although their country's imperial guards suffered a pity, they could not cover up the joy of not being affected by the fish.

The people of Dali Kingdom do not have the centripetal force that the people of the Song Dynasty do not have the centripetal force.

In the era of war, it would be good to be alive. The Song Dynasty imperial guards did not force them to a dead end, who would have the intention to hold a grudge against the Song Dynasty imperial guards?

Unless the Song Dynasty imperial guards burned, killed, looted the city like the Yuan army. In fact, the people's patience is mostly due to being forced to have no way out, which will explode.

Zhang Jue led his army to pass by Luomeng tribe before leaving Shanchan Prefecture.

The road was very calm.

The private soldiers of the tribes in Shanchan Mansion did not dare to come up to touch the power of the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty. They all stayed honestly in their territory.

Even if the Song Imperial Army passed by their city, no one dared to go up to stop the Song army.

Even the imperial guards of the capital and so many soldiers of the Shanchan Prefecture were wiped out by the entire army. Wouldn't they rush forward and seek death?

Perhaps, some of these tribal leaders even had the idea of ​​seeking to surrender to the Song Dynasty.
