Chapter 872 Liya's Financial Dilemma

From the history that Yun Xiaohan knows, so far there has not been a case of sea delivery on the Yar continent, and there has been no way of entering the enemy's rear to harass and loot.

This means that Yun Xiaohan will not be hindered in adopting sea delivery tactics. The enemy will never think of it, and he will not guard against this at all, and he can also gain the title of a tactical innovator, which will help Yun Xiaohan improve his skills. Prestige among NPCs is obviously extremely beneficial.

Although the players all understand this, on the one hand, it is impossible for them to think that Yun Xiaohan will adopt the tactics of sea delivery. On the other hand, the status of the players in the game is still very low, and they have no right to speak. Also powerless to interfere with the command of the NPC.

There are only two player guild territories in the business alliance, and both of them are miniature villages. The miniature villages can only upgrade 1-level buildings, which means that they can only recruit up to 100 territory soldiers, and the territory players have already participated in the battle. The lord is fighting, so these 200 territorial soldiers are the limit of the strength that these two families can produce. This amount of strength is not enough to put Yun Xiaohan's teeth together.

This is the same as Yun Xiaohan's previous level suppression. It is comprehensively crushed from the perspective of camp status and territorial development, and compared to the level gap, Yun Xiaohan has greater advantages in these aspects, and the level difference is 2 or 3 levels. He can still fight, but the difference in territory and camp status is too much. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as far away, and this is the basis for Yun Xiaohan's daring to adopt sea projection tactics.

Yun Xiaohan explained his thoughts to Liya. His logical thinking ability is very strong, and his expression ability is also quite good, expressing all the advantages of sea delivery very clearly.

The sea projection strategy requires less investment, but the benefits are greater. It can hold a large number of enemy troops with less troops, thereby gaining the initiative on the battlefield, and even the merchant alliance will have a lot of worries when it wants to launch an attack in the future.

When Liya heard Yun Xiaohan's words, she immediately realized the benefits of sea delivery.

Don't think that there is no delay within the empire. There is still a big gap between the western empire and the eastern high degree of centralization. The emperor also needs to compromise with the domestic nobles, so there will be no less internal conflicts and wrangling.

In fact, if you think about it, you will know that such a big cake led by Sardin was swallowed by the royal family completely, and other big nobles in the empire did not even get a share. This made many nobles dissatisfied, and even many royal families were against the emperor Insist on granting the entire Sardinian territory to Leah, who objected.

Under such circumstances, those great nobles and royal families have already given the emperor a lot of face without dragging Sardinian's hind legs, so why don't they give Sardinian assistance?Stop daydreaming.

So now that the war has been fought, Liya has not received any support from the center of the empire, with only [-] troops, and no financial support. The [-] troops that came to support had to be supplied by Liya herself.

Of course, less assistance from the Empire Center is not without benefits. Firstly, the Duchy of Sardinia has maintained a good independence; secondly, Liya has become the head of the Southern War Zone, and has strengthened the control of the Snowman region after the silver mine incident. Influence; Finally, due to the need to undertake various affairs on her own, Liya's ability has been greatly exercised.

But the benefits belong to the benefits. Liya also faces many difficulties, and the biggest difficulty is money.

Money is what is fought in war, and Liya needs to spend money in many places, such as tidying up internal affairs, pacifying the territory, building ships, and building new legions, all of which require money.

It is inevitable to reinforce Gloya City this time, but the specific number of reinforcements and the duration of the reinforcements are worth considering. The more reinforcements and the longer the reinforcement time, the greater the economic expenditure, and there are even pensions. Expenditure, and there will be no benefits in the defense of the city, it is pure blood loss.

The current financial situation of Sardinia is quite tight. In fact, if it is not for the discovery of silver mines, Liya can rebuild the Sea Lion Legion and recruit two ordinary legions. An elite army armed with mica equipment - Herring Gull Army.

Although the Herring Gull Legion is still under construction, its combat power is worth looking forward to. The benefits of mica have been introduced before. One is high magic resistance, the other is light weight, and has heavy equipment defense, but it is not as strong as heavy equipment. heavy.

For an amphibious army, light weight is even more useful than high magic resistance, because wearing heavy equipment will become a weight when falling into the water, and it is impossible to swim normally, and it will drown directly without taking off the equipment; while wearing mica equipment can still Swimming is just inferior to professional swimming equipment in terms of swimming speed.

Because the mica is self-produced and does not need to be purchased, it has already saved a lot of costs, and can continue to expand the Herring Gull Army in the future, thereby greatly strengthening the military power of the Duke of Sardinia, and further strengthening Liya's influence on the entire Sardinia. control and further stabilize the battle situation in the southern theater.

Therefore, the Herring Gull Legion is of great significance to the Duchy of Sardinia. It is good to complete the formation one day earlier and enter the battle one day earlier.However, if it is necessary to send a large number of troops to reinforce Gloria City for a long time, the financial pressure will be very high, and Liya will have to temporarily suspend the formation of the Herring Gull Legion, and may even borrow money from other nobles in the Dukedom of Sardinia. As military expenses, this is obviously what Liya doesn't want to see.

And Yun Xiaohan's tactic of launching at sea happened to scratch Liya's itch. The dispatched troops don't need to be too many, and they can also plunder a large amount of supplies to ease financial pressure. In addition, once Yun Xiaohan leads troops in Marseilles With the plundering of the special area, it is impossible for the coalition forces of the Merchant Alliance composed of many lords of Masset to continue to attack Gloria City. These lords will definitely withdraw their troops and come back to keep their territory first.

In this way, the 15 merchant coalition forces will have no way to continue fighting, and [-]% of them will be disbanded, and before the problem of sea control is resolved, the merchant alliance will be unable to attack again, and Gloria City will be quite stable for a long time Safety.

In other words, Liya only needs to provide a small amount of reinforcements to Gloria City, and only needs to assist in the defense for a short period of time, so the military expenditure will be much less.

However, Liya also has a little concern. After all, this is the first time she has heard of this sea-delivery strategy. Although Yun Xiaohan said that the hype is falling, it seems to be very methodical and very unexpected.But in Liya's view, sea delivery is the first "innovative" tactic implemented after all. It is impossible for the enemy to take precautions. Both were underestimated.

Among other things, the problem of finding the way alone is not easy to solve, and whether Yun Xiaohan's strength can cause enough damage and whether he can loot enough supplies to force the enemy to withdraw, Liya is not sure. Not too sure.
