Build a Swarm Tech Tree in Konoha

Chapter 611 The Chaotic Noble Army

A bit of fear and longing appeared on the face of the Archmage Nagrand, he said: "What really surprised us is that there is no magic involved in everything in it."

"And we got two kinds of explosives at one time, which don't need magic power at all."

"No, there are three kinds." Archmage Ent corrected Nagrand, "The white powder brought by Soyas has also been released."

"But I don't know how to make it at all, and I can't even get a hint. It seems that this is the existence with the highest level of technology."

"That's not necessarily the case. There are more than one places on this weapon that can't be divined at all. The only thing that is certain is that the opponent did not use magic power at all during the production process."

"So, this is definitely not a riot of untouchables. Behind them is a terrifying magic civilization, which far exceeds our level of magic civilization."

"Hey, hey, the magic sticks are in trouble this time. They couldn't solve the abyssal demons for three years. As a result, another super magic civilization appeared."

"The problem is that we are also in trouble. This time they have not noticed the key problem, but next time they will definitely let us manufacture weapons on a large scale. This is simply impossible."

"Well, wait for a while, don't worry, if we are forced to the head, we will deal with it casually, we can make as many as we can, anyway, we are doing our best."

"I think this is a good thing. They can let us contribute to making weapons, but we must provide enough Mithril and fine gold. With such high-quality materials, I am definitely willing to contribute to making weapons."

Hearing such words, the magicians were taken aback for a moment, and then laughed happily, exchanging tacit eyes with each other.

For commissioned manufacturing, it is normal to lose [-]% of the wear and tear.

With such a high salary, the great magicians feel that it is right to work hard.

It's a pity that the lords, the grand duke and the king are not stupid, and they are not willing to take treasures out of their own homes to fill holes if they are not forced to do so.

The fourteen lords in Chihe Valley were willing, but even the four lucky ones who fled outside became paupers, with nothing left except their identities and dozens of subordinates.

Some who still have a small territory outside the valley can maintain the last team, while those whose entire territory is in the rebellion area, even the knights who follow him can hardly maintain.

In fact, these lords could not even save their own lives.

Such a large piece of fertile land, the family with undisputed ownership, but the current situation is that the family is exhausted and the strength has fallen to the bottom. This is the reason why they must die.

Now, the four "lucky" lords are all under the control of their neighbors, and they are about to act as the guides of the Four Route Army, walking at the forefront of the army, and the first to enter the range of the Chihe Valley.

The nobles have gathered an army of 17, and it is said that the rebels in the Chihe Valley have also increased to 4, and the scale of the war has exceeded the 20 that God War can achieve.

Only the Allied Forces of the Gods launched an abyss siege on a larger scale than this war. During the second abyss siege, the gods gathered more than 50 soldiers, and the strongest dragon knights exceeded [-].

It is said that on the battlefield of the decisive battle, the soldiers covered the ground, and the dragon wings blocked the sunlight. It was a war that even gods would marvel at.

In such a large-scale war, the death rate is very exaggerated, especially the forwards and guides of the army are the most dangerous, and their death rate is close to [-]%.

The nobles who are the neighbors of the Chihe Valley arranged the lord of the Chihe Valley as a guide, and their murderous intentions were already expressed nakedly.

Do you really think that the world of aristocrats is rule-based?
What the nobles emphasize often means what they lack.

In fact, if the rebellion in the Chihe Valley could be suppressed during the siege, even if these lords survived the battle, they would definitely be "killed" by the rebels.

It is also possible that seeing the destruction of the family, mourning to the point of death, desperate to live, pulled out a knife and stabbed dozens of knives in the back and committed suicide.

On the contrary, if the siege fails miserably and the nearby lords suffer a great loss of strength, the lords of the Chihe Valley will be safe.

Of course, the premise is that as the guides of this army, they will not be killed in the battle first, and they will not be caught by the rebel red army in the rout.

……

In July, the hottest month, the total number of noble coalition forces reached 19, which was the limit of the nobles' organizational capabilities.

Despite camping near the river, the hot climate caused the plague, the main disease being dysentery and diarrhea.

Due to the lack of water and excretion management, the dysentery pandemic killed more than 4000 people in the past June.

The bigger crisis is the insufficient supply of food. Even with the help of rivers for auxiliary transportation, it cannot bring enough food to the army.

Among them, the two kingdoms and the four duchies have a relatively high level of organization. Although there are problems of corruption, they have managed to maintain the supply, and the soldiers will not be hungry.

And those small lords were miserable, because there was no administrative system established, and the chaotic organizational skills of traditional nobles showed their worst side.

One hundred catties of grain was confiscated from their own territory, and after long-distance transportation, only twenty catties were delivered to the frontline lord, and the loss could be as high as [-]%.

The poor lords were even deceived by their relatives. The information they accepted was that only [-] catties of grain were collected because of resistance from the unruly people.

Not all lords were deceived, but they knew there was nothing they could do.

His own territory was hundreds of miles away, and the lord could do nothing but stare at him. He could only keep urging his relatives to work hard. There was really not enough food.

But the army cannot be reasonable, if they cannot feed the stomachs of the soldiers, they are ferocious beasts that are about to erupt, and even the life of the lord himself is in jeopardy.

For the safety of his own life, the lord can only take out real money, even various expensive gems, to buy the food sold by the merchants.

At the very least, keep the soldiers full of water twice a day.

Even if it is the grain purchased at a high price, there is no small possibility that it was produced in his territory, so he can only buy it with gritted teeth.

In the days when spending money like running water, the lords are naturally restless.

They came here in response to the call of the high-ranking nobles, not for the glory of the bloody nobles, they just wanted to make money, big money!
The abyss siege has been carried out twice, and each time it can be said that the entire army was wiped out. Except for the flying dragon knights, only a few knights were able to escape the pursuit of the demon dogs.

Such a loss is devastating to every family, but the nobles, including the two kings, can only bite the bullet.

There is no way, the god is watching from the sky, and the nobles who dare to disobey the oracle will naturally have angels descend and destroy the entire family.

The angel's hands are ruthless, and it will affect many neighbors at every turn. No one dares to fight against the gods, so they can only spread their anger on the blasphemers who rebel against the gods and kill all their relatives.

Now which lord dares to resist the oracle, there is no need for the gods to send down angels, or even the priesthood of the court to punish them.

The neighbors around him, even the relatives in his family, would do everything they could to poison and assassinate him as soon as they knew about it, and desperately wanted to kill this blasphemer.

Only in this way can the interests of the family be protected to the greatest extent.

The lords are now resigned to their fate, as long as they are lords, enjoy as much as possible, and then die in epic wars.

However, the losses caused by the siege of the abyss are real.

After such a disaster, if the nobles want to keep their family inheritance, they need to have a few more sons to inherit the title and territory.

And if you want to keep your noble status, you need to restore the family's armed forces as soon as possible.

Hiring knights, raising soldiers, and buying weapons and equipment all require money.

For a lord with his own army, the fastest way to make money is of course robbing.

Therefore, 10,000+ noble troops gathered, and their purpose was very consistent, which was to conquer the Chihe Valley before the abyss siege, plunder this rich territory, and make a fortune.

Save more funds for restarting for yourself and your family.

It's definitely not here to break the bank.

The reality is that the pockets of the nobles are bleeding, and they urgently need to launch an attack as soon as possible. Even the king and the duke cannot object to this request, otherwise the nobles will run away.

So from July [-]th to July [-]th, the noble armies set off one after another.

The vanguard of the army is the lords around the Chihe Valley, and they are also the most urgent group of nobles.

If the misery of other nobles is financial loss, the disaster they face is family loss.

The coalition forces of nobles are stationed in their territory, and the best land to camp is of course leveled farmland.

10,000+ people came and went, galloping wildly, the sown farmland was trampled into a hard barren land, today's harvest is completely gone.

Moreover, the military discipline of the nobles' army is very suspicious. There are so many vicious crimes in the entire territory. Robbery, murder, rape and other evil deeds cannot be dealt with at all, and no one dares to deal with them.

These unlucky lords are eager to let these plague gods leave, and they are eager to recover their blood through robbery. Otherwise, the number of troops they send in next year's abyss siege may not meet the standard, and it will be a more serious disaster.

The war started in such a mess.

……

Younv Tiewan looked at the information dumbfounded. Such a chaotic attack by the noble army was not as threatening as the fourteen Chihe Valley coalition forces before.

Unfortunately, I mobilized a total of 4 people, which is really a waste of manpower.

According to the historical battle records in his memory, such an army does not need to fight battles or decisive battles at all. As long as they beat their forwards, they will destroy themselves.

There was a gap of ten days between the four attacks, and he could even directly use the time difference to defeat the enemies of the four routes one by one without arranging a blocking army.

You must know that during the process of digging the canal, the Red Army has already leveled out simple roads in the Chihe Valley, and the criss-crossing road network has guaranteed their inside advantage.

Listening to Younv Tetsuwan's intelligence analysis, the senior officers of the Red Army became excited, and they asked for a fight one after another.

"My lord, let's attack with the whole army and destroy the nobles one by one!"

"Please let me be the striker, I promise to defeat the enemy's striker within an hour!"

"Let me take the lead this time!"

Among the original selection criteria for senior officers of the Red Army, bravery is a mandatory requirement after obedience, so their performance is naturally full of courage.

But Younv Tieswan laughed, and said: "The whole army should attack, but my plan is to divide the troops into two groups and attack the enemies in two directions at the same time."

"Do you have the confidence to kill [-] to [-] noble troops with [-] red-clothed troops?"

Everyone shut up, because the confidence that Younv Tetsuwan said pointed to leading an army independently, defeating the enemy without a leader.

For officers who had been serfs five months earlier, the request was too intimidating.

As an elite selected from tens of thousands of people, they have no shortage of courage, but none of them have such strong self-confidence to command an army of 2 people.

Despite repeated encouragement, no one dared to stand up and take on such a responsibility, even if Younv Tetsumaru said that he would send a shadow clone to assist.

Several of the most daring officers explained with wry smiles: "Sir, no matter how difficult other jobs are, with the help of your avatar, we dare to give it a try. Because there is a chance to correct mistakes, but there is no chance for war command mistakes." Redeem."

In the end, the command work after the division of troops can only be undertaken by Younv Tetsumaru. At this time, it can really be seen that the shadow clone technique is a god-like ninjutsu.

Younv Tetsumaru did not choose to fight head-on when the noble army walked out of the valley road. He waited patiently for two days, waiting for the kingdom and principality army to enter the valley behind.

He was also not worried that the nobles who walked ahead would break through first and plunder the Chihe Valley where the harvest was imminent.

While the red-clothed army was repairing the canal, Younv Tiewan hired a large amount of manpower to clear the walls at the four road exits.

Moreover, the cleaning area designated by Younu Tiewan is not large, only one kilometer in width.

After cleaning up, people dug large and small holes on the flat ground according to his plan, and filled the land with water through ditches.

Younu Tiewan also specifically requested that the soil dug out when digging the hole should not be transported away, but piled on the side of the hole.

After irrigation, the water and floating soil combine to form mud, which naturally silts the dug holes and forms an artificial swamp.

A one-kilometer-wide muddy pond is nothing to an individual, and it can take up to two hours to wade across it, but for an army fully armed and carrying luggage, it is a natural barrier.

The water must be diverted and the pits must be filled so that the army can pass through in an orderly manner.

And this job was very troublesome. Tens of thousands of noble troops worked in a mess, and it took a full two days to pave a road.

Younv Tetsumaru is very satisfied with this result, and his goal is to complete the initial assembly of the sparse noble army.

What is fought in war is material and national strength, but what is fought on the battlefield is morale and courage.

Younu Tiewan certainly understands the principle of one effort, then decline, and three exhaustion.

What impressed him the most about the noble army was that it was poorly organized. 3 people marched on the mountain roads, and they could be dragged into a [-]-kilometer-long team.

The situation of the [-] noble army can only be worse, and they are not familiar with each other at all, which will inevitably drag out a longer team.

Fighting against such an enemy is likely to win the battle for one day, and then chase the enemy for another day, only to find that the main force of the enemy has not been encountered at all.

Younv Tetsumaru must avoid this terrible situation. He needs to help the enemy gather. Only when the enemy gathers can they defeat the enemy in one battle, and then destroy all the enemies through pursuit.
