Chapter 65 Resurrection (Part 1)

Standing on the city tower, Cons looked at the battlefield in front of him.

For the first time, he had a view of the overall situation of the entire battlefield. Many command methods were understood in a downward view. Unconsciously, Cons had a deeper understanding of combat command.

Ida looked at the battle in the distance and couldn't help but murmured: "It's so spectacular."

"Haha, the scene of a siege of a hundred thousand troops before was spectacular." A left-behind deputy team leader interjected.

Cons turned around and smiled at the deputy team leader, "Thank you for your hard work, when did the enemy arrive?"

The deputy team leader saluted and said, "Short long after the lord led his army to leave, a hundred thousand bandits suddenly appeared and surrounded Kaiyi City. He could not send anyone to notify the adults. If he came back one day later, the city might have fallen."

Hearing this, Cons and Ida couldn't help but be glad that they did not decide to spend the night in the wild, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

But it is really amazing. Such an inadvertent decision can actually determine the outcome of a war.

"How is the loss?" Cons asked.

"As soon as the city gate was broken, the lord came. There was no loss in the city. However, the village outside the city should have been looted by the bandits. We are still investigating the details. It is only because the enemy came too quickly and too secretly, which makes us have no warning time at all...

"I suspect that there are a large number of spies hidden in our controlled area, otherwise the troops guarding outside would not even have anyone called the police." The deputy team leader reminded.

Cons sighed, the countryside was looted, so that not long ago, he saw those happy scenes disappear. Those happy children may have lost their relatives or been killed. No matter what, their laughter no longer exists.

Thinking of this, even though Cons, who was used to life and death, could not help but punch the city wall and shouted and cursed: "Damn it!"

Ida hurriedly comforted, "Sir, there is nothing we can do about it. Only by eliminating the bandits and chaos as soon as possible can the civilians truly live a happy life."

The deputy team leader quickly responded. He did not care about the casualties of civilians, but felt sorry for most of the losses of the soldiers under his command.

Cons nodded and looked up at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.

With the cooperation of infantry and cavalry outside, the battle outside the city was soon over. The bandits were not captured, but they were killed. There was no chance of escape in the battle on the plains.

Looking at the prisoners escorted by soldiers below, Cons felt a little relieved for some reason and couldn't help but wave to the soldiers below.

Seeing Cons wave to him, the soldier immediately shouted: "God of War! God of War!"

Sorry, Cons quickly bowed, but it caused even more fanatical cheers from below.

Ida secretly glanced at Cons. Seeing his embarrassed look, he couldn't help but think of the scene where Cons was shouting for killing. He couldn't help but think, "I don't know when I can have such cheers? Maybe it's impossible for a lifetime, right? No matter how hard or capable I am, I am just a captain of the personal soldiers!"

Thinking of this, Ida began to wonder why she thought this way and smiled self-deprecatingly.

It would be nice to be the captain of Lord Cons. What else do you want to do? Be the commander of the division? Do you have that ability?

Ida suppressed these strange ideas and left the city tower with Cons, who was frightened by the cheers.

What follows are some tedious things, ordering the troops to clean the battlefield, build temporary prisoner camps, marshal prisoners, prepare a large amount of food, the troops return, count the seized materials and return them to the warehouse, repair the cities, calculate military merits, count the results of war, etc., and so on.

These tedious things have nothing to do with Cons, and he has never managed them before, and they are left to Ida, Carlo and others to deal with. While these officers were busy, Cons was looking at the books happily.

If fighting is his instinct, then studying is what he longs for the most. Now he follows Isna's advice and learns whenever he has time.

Compared with Cons' leisure, Sires of Rot City gritted his teeth and gasped. After a while, he said angrily: "The 200,000 troops have disappeared in just a few days. How did they command it! Ambush Isna with 100,000 people. Even if Cons caught, he would not die in one day!

"If they could delay Kens for one or two days, wouldn't they be occupied if they opened a city? How could the 100,000 people besieged to open a city be so stupid? Seeing that the enemy cavalry came, if they didn't escape quickly, they were still stupid and fleeing with the other party!

"After breaking through the city gate, they did not take the opportunity to occupy the city so as to gain geographical advantage and compete with the cavalry, but instead let them attack from front and back! How could there be such a stupid command palace!"

The middle-aged butler next to him sighed, "This is impossible. Those commanders are all from bandits. Letting them hide in the mountains to harass and fight. Letting them siege cities and ambush troops is simply their life. After all, war cannot be relied on a large number of people, so it is not surprising that they will be defeated."

Sires knew it was his fault, and his angry expression disappeared, and he changed into a calm expression: "Forget it, I thought the bandits' command ability was the same as that of Cons, the illiterate command ability, but he didn't notice that Cons had many excellent subordinates, so it's no wonder that the bandits were defeated."

Seeing Sires recovering so quickly, the middle-aged butler smiled comfortably, then frowned and said, "But in this way, nearly 200,000 troops were lost, and the remaining few big bosses who had not been dispatched will never believe your decision anymore. Isn't the alliance with you as the military advisor equal to a complete disbandment?"

"Haha, it doesn't matter. If you disband, you will disband. Anyway, I will win over these bandits, one is to make the place confused, and the other is to make them the targets of our troops." Sires said.

"Your troops?" The housekeeper was a little curious.

Sires blinked and smiled, "It's the guards of Rot City. These 30,000 people are my real capital. In addition to the local elites, most of them are powerful soldiers poaching the bandit leaders."

The housekeeper frowned and said, "Those soldiers who came from the bandits are indeed elite, but they know that your identity as a military advisor will affect your reputation and image in Rot City?"

Sires said relaxedly: "Haha, don't worry, they are all gangsters who are eager to gain a serious status. They know that I can give them what they want, but instead supervise and remind each other that they will never seek death."

The butler nodded and asked, "So, what are you going to do next?"

Sires smiled and said, "Simplely, dispatch these 30,000 guards to wipe out the remaining bandits, completely control this area, and then, while expanding himself, make some trouble for the other forces."

"Since you have a complete plan, I can leave here with confidence." The butler nodded and said.

"Butler, I can't bear to leave." Sires suddenly acted like a little girl, acting coquettish to his elders.

"Little... Master, please rest assured. After completing what you have assigned, I will come back immediately. I am still waiting to attend your wedding." The butler smiled.

"What are you talking about - ignore you!" Sires ran away from the room with a flushed face.

The butler, who was originally smiling, suddenly looked at the sky with a ferocious look and muttered to himself: "If you dare to be sorry... I will never let you go!"

After several consecutive days of rest and statistics, a post-war summary meeting was held in the conference hall that was first used after the expansion of a city.

Infantry was the corps commander or above, while cavalry was the brigade commander or above. The total number of officers attended the meeting was hundreds of, which filled the conference hall.

Cons sat in the main seat, next to the five team leaders. In addition to Ida, there were two empty seats. The Cavalry Regiment Captain looked at the two positions with jealous eyes.

After some opening remarks, Cons gestured to Ida, and Ida stood up to read out the files.

"Notice the number of captives in the cavalry corps, the first corps 6,345, the second corps 6,830, the third corps 6,145, the fourth corps 6,234, the fifth corps 6,312, and the sixth corps 6,654..."

When Ida finished reading, some of the cavalry officers were happy and some were sad, while the infantry officers were all stunned.

What's going on? There are only 500 people in a corps, so how could it be that more than ten times the enemy was captured? But they quickly realized that most of the prisoners of these guys were bought from infantrymen. When they thought of this, they didn't say anything.

It has been long since the personal soldiers of Cons that the prisoners exchanged money this time as a benefit for soldiers. Since the commander said something, who dares to do more trouble?

"The most captives are the Second Regiment and the Thirteenth Regiment. The two corps captains will cancel their original numbers and become the first cavalry team leader of the First Brigade of the First Division of the First Division of the First Army, and the second cavalry team leader. Please ask the two team leaders to accept the numbers." Cons stood up and said, only when he said the appointment power counted.

A personal soldier next to him stood by holding the new team leader's logo ornament.

The two team captains who were about to be promoted were blushing, as if drunk, and their steps were a little sloppy. They came to Cons, raised their heads and stood attentively, hung up the sign ornaments, and then sat on the stage under Cons' instructions. Of course, they could not help but shake hands with the other five team leaders one by one.

"Below are the five deputy team leaders of the First Cavalry Team, the Sixth Regiment, and the Eighth Regiment..." Cons then appointed ten deputy team leaders and helped them with special logo ornaments that were only available in Cons' troops. They couldn't help but say something to comfort the team leaders who were not selected.

"As for the promotion rewards of the entire army, after each team reports according to the records, each team will perform the promotion rewards. The following are the losses and gains of this battle."

Cons signaled to Ida, and Ida picked up the notebook and started to recite: "In the two battles of the rescue priest and defending Yicheng, our army suffered a total of 8,765 people, including 8,032 infantry and 733 cavalry.

"There are 1,321 people who are seriously injured and unable to enter the battle within a month, 3,452 people who are slightly injured and can re-fight within a month, 13,678 people who are 1,678 people. Our army has more than 16,000 infantry and more than 7,000 cavalry."

Hearing this, everyone's hearts suddenly became cold.

Originally, the grassroots infantry officers had only sacrificed a little after counting the soldiers under their command. I was a little lucky that the loss was not big this time, but the total number of the entire army was amazing!

Especially the five infantry team leaders were heartbroken, and the eight thousand soldiers disappeared. On average, each team was less than 1,600 people. If it was a general-organized army, it would almost mean that one team was eliminated!

Moreover, there are only more than 16,000 people who still have combat effectiveness, which is half less than the 30,000 people at the beginning! The officers' eyes turned red.

"War is so helpless. Our victory is exchanged for the sacrificed soldiers! We not only need to treat the injured soldiers, but also take care of the disabled soldiers to ensure that they live a worry-free life.

"At the same time, we must take good care of the families of the sacrificed soldiers, ensure that their parents spend their old age in peace, and ensure that their children grow up healthily! As long as I, Cons, are still here, this decision must be implemented!" Cons's face was serious.
Chapter completed!
