Bad Lady Reborn to be Sweet - Chapter 659
When we heard Marshal Zhao’s words, we were all frightened. What is the concept of tripled military strength?
Not to mention the three times increase of troops, it is very difficult for them to deal with the forces before the Western barbarians. Now they have tripled all at once. Are they still alive?
“Although there are more soldiers over there, we don’t have to worry too much. Those new recruits have limited combat power. We are all well-trained veterans, so we don’t have to be afraid of them at all!” When Marshal Zhao saw that the morale of the generals was low, he pretended to comfort them with ease.
It’s a pity that those present are all veteran soldiers who have been fighting for a long time. It’s not a day or two to deal with Western barbarians. How can they be easily fooled by Marshal Zhao’s words.
Although the newly increased troops certainly can’t compare with the well-trained veterans before Ximan in terms of combat power, they grew up on horseback when they were young. In terms of riding skills, the recruits of Ximan can throw away their special cavalry.
Although horsemanship is only one aspect of the battlefield, and fighting skills are more important, the men on the west side are naturally taller and stronger than those on the moon side. Needless to say, there is a strong trend of martial arts, and almost everyone knows martial arts. Even if a recruit is picked up to compare with their veterans, it is better.
In the past, they won by the number of soldiers. They used to use two to three or even three to four months’ soldiers to fight a Western barbarian soldier. Only when the number of soldiers is absolutely suppressed can they win. Once they don’t even have this advantage, it’s hard to predict whether they will fight Ximan.
“If there are so many more soldiers on the west side, we will lose a lot in the war with them in the spring It’s hard to know if you’ve lost… ”
One of the generals sighed anxiously. Seeing Marshal Zhao staring at him displeased, he quickly changed the last sentence “lose more, lose less” into “lose and win hard”.
In fact, what’s the difficulty? It’s just that they put gold on their faces.
“Today we are called here to discuss countermeasures, not to let the enemy of the big parents lose their prestige! They can increase our troops, so can we! What are you afraid of? We are all human beings, and the Westerners have no more hands than us. What are we afraid of them doing? ”
When Marshal Zhao saw the talkative general finish, everyone’s morale seemed to be even lower. He was so angry that he glared at him and began to cheer everyone up.
Marshal Zhao’s words don’t have much effect. They can increase the number of troops, not to mention whether the imperial court can agree with the proposal. Even if they agree, the recruits they recruit are not the kind of recruits that can be used immediately. If they don’t want to let these people die in vain, they have to train them for at least one to two years before they can go to the battlefield.
In one or two years, the grass on their graves is higher than that of people. What’s the use?
When Marshal Zhao saw that he was still worried, he almost hated the guy who was just talking. He had no choice but to give Xie Zhifeng a look, hoping that Xie Zhifeng could say something to appease people.
The boy is usually silent, but he is too lazy to speak. At the critical moment, the boy is very good at speaking. His words often hit the nail on the head and directly come to the point, which makes the big guy have to be convinced.
Xie Zhifeng received Marshal Zhao’s signal, cleared his throat and began to say what he thought.
“The marshal is right. Although the troops of the Western barbarians have increased a lot, there are also many problems on their side. The Western barbarians’ court is not rich and has increased so many soldiers all of a sudden. Their finances must be under great pressure. In order to reduce their expenses, their soldiers’ salaries will certainly be reduced a lot. It’s just that the new soldiers’ salaries are not good enough For the new recruits to join, the treatment becomes worse. There must be many contradictions between them and these new recruits.
In addition, the tripling of their troops came not only from the desperate herdsmen, but also from the amalgamation of other tribes. These people were either destroyed or surrendered. Anyway, they were not in the same heart with the original people of the Western barbarian Dynasty.
When they really get to the battlefield, these people may not really be willing to work hard for them, or even have the possibility of defection. Therefore, the three times of their new forces are not enough to be afraid of, but are very likely to become a breakthrough for our army. As long as we can find the key figures, Xu Yizhong, and cooperate with them at that time, the Western barbarian army will break itself up
Marshal Zhao’s words just now were not of much use, but Xie Zhifeng’s words were very powerful. They were straight to the point. They pointed to the most serious weakness of the Western barbarian army, that is, the complex source of troops and the scattered morale.
When people think about it, isn’t it just like what Xie Zhifeng said?
