He is in great shortage of minerals and the like. Kazdel is a country after all, so it must have a lot of minerals. Moreover, the Sarkaz have always been short of food and clothing because of the war. It just so happens that Su Xing is in short of everything except food.
After several months, a lot of potatoes and sweet potatoes have been harvested, and at least half of the crop blocks are planted with these two crops.
The remaining space is used for breeding fungi and raising some edible animals, such as tumor beasts and meat beasts.
Currently, Su Xing is preparing to build a second crop block. Once the block is completed, he can officially trade with Kazdel.
As for whether he would refuse?
Su Xing felt that as long as the nobles of Kazdel were not too stupid, they would definitely not refuse.
It doesn't matter even if she refuses, W will definitely make this deal happen anyway. Although W looks crazy, she still has feelings for the Sarkaz. If she can trade food from here to save the Sarkaz from hunger, she will not refuse.
Although the food produced by Su Xing now cannot satisfy the entire Sarkaz in Kazdel, it is still no problem to feed tens of thousands of people.
As another crop block is built, the number of people that can be fed will only increase.
Su Xing looked at the fighting armies in the distance and saw that the Third Army had already begun to retreat.
It seems that Grand Duke Baikal can no longer bear the losses of his troops, otherwise he would not have retreated so quickly.
Grand Duke Baikal did not want to retreat either, but as the Third Army suffered more and more losses, the nobles under his command looked at him with less awe and fear. If the army continued to suffer losses, he might not be able to get out of the snowfield.
As fellow nobles, how could Grand Duke Baikal not guess what these people were thinking?
Although such a defeat would cause his reputation to plummet and even the emperor would punish him, it was better than death.
Thinking of this, Grand Duke Baikal directly ordered the Third Army to retreat, and then asked the army to come to his side to protect him and prevent these nobles from taking action.
Chapter 66: The Alliance between the Emperor and the Nobles
Su Xing watched the Third Army retreat and had no intention of pursuing them. His army also suffered heavy losses. The total number of troops on the opposite side was almost 100,000, and Su Xing only sent out more than 10,000 troops.
Just in case, Su Xing also prepared 20,000 reserve troops in the city, ready to send them to support if the army in the front was defeated.
In addition to these preparations, Su Xing also ambushed some People's Liberation Army soldiers on the road that must be taken to leave the snowfield, so that he could give these people a surprise when they escaped.
But now it seems that he was overthinking it. Even the Third Army was beaten by the People's Liberation Army. It was not because the Third Army was incompetent, but because the equipment of the People's Liberation Army was too advanced.
If Terra could still lose with weapons that were almost an era ahead of the opponent, Su Xing would start to suspect that there was something wrong with him.
Although the world of Terra also has a supernatural system called Originium, only a few people can master the art of Originium. It is even rarer to find a strong person who can fight a hundred alone. There are even fewer people like the Blood Demon Lord and the Scavenger King who can defeat an army alone.
All I can say is that although there are strong ones, they are not too outrageous.
If it is a world like Honkai or Kaihu where one person can destroy a continent or even the entire earth, forget about communism. In that kind of world, either the leader is a philosopher king, or you are strong enough, otherwise you have to find a place to live until the end of time.
In other words, in the world of Terra, even giant beasts will perish under the siege of the country, otherwise Su Xing would not want to adopt communism.
However, even so, the communism that Su Xing is pursuing cannot be copied to Earth. For now, he can only pursue democracy and wait until productivity is improved. The premise of communism is sufficient productivity and development, which is not acceptable in the current situation.
However, these are things that need to be considered later. Now Su Xing just wants to know the casualties of the People's Liberation Army?
Soon, the PLA's casualties were counted. The PLA suffered more than 2000 casualties, including almost 3000 deaths, and the remaining were injured.
对于这个结果苏星觉得还是有点高了,碾压式的武器所造成的战损比应该在1:10到15左右,如果更夸张一点20到30也不是不可能。
That is to say, it would take at least 10 to 15 PLA soldiers to replace one of their fully armed soldiers, and 20 or 30 is not impossible.
Exaggerated? Very exaggerated. Scary? Very scary.
But this is a very normal thing. It is the inevitable result of advanced equipment.
Needless to say, as long as you have good marksmanship, it is normal to kill seven or eight enemies with one magazine. If you are a sharpshooter, ten are a for sure. If you can kill two with one shot, the death toll will be even higher.
However, this depends on one's luck and marksmanship, so it is not included.
Moreover, every PLA soldier carries a lot of spare magazines. As long as there is a chance, no one can get close to them until the bullets are used up.
In addition to these, there are also grenades. One grenade can kill at least five or six people, and more than a dozen people is not a problem.
By the time all of these are used up, with the triangular bayonet and the full body bulletproof vest, the other side will need at least five or six or even seven or eight people to exchange for one, so the casualty ratio is still low.
However, the above are only theoretical data. The reality is ever-changing. Just like when the battle just started, a lot of grenades were used, and the opponent's shield guards had strong defense. If it weren't for the snipers who killed a lot of commanding generals, the casualties would have been even more serious.
(The data is not serious, it is just written randomly.)
Although the opposing army also had firearms and sorcerers, their number was too small, and the impact they could have on the army of tens of thousands was too small.
Unlike Su Xing's People's Liberation Army, each of them was equipped with pistols and rifles, with bulletproof vests and grenades hanging around their waists. In addition, there were also many troops of small nobles causing trouble. The Third Army had no way to fight against the People's Liberation Army.
After counting the casualties, Su Xing asked people to look for survivors. After confirming that there were no survivors, the bodies were burned on the spot. The bodies of the People's Liberation Army soldiers were moved back to the city and burned after being claimed by their relatives.
The burning speed is very fast. After all, many of the corpses belong to infected people. These people must take protective measures when burning, otherwise they will easily be infected with oripathy.
The flames shooting up into the sky filled everyone's vision. It was not a good feeling to see tens of thousands of corpses burning before one's eyes, not to mention that many of these corpses had broken limbs, and some were not even complete.
Even though Su Xing had seen corpses before, facing such a large number was still unacceptable for him, an ordinary person. After returning to the city while suppressing his nausea, Su Xing still couldn't help vomiting.
Obviously, this scale and number of corpses were too exciting for Su Xing.
Su Xing finally came to his senses after vomiting for a long time. At this time, Herag next to him said, "You have to get used to it as soon as possible. After Grand Duke Baikal runs back this time, we may have to face the entire Ursus. This kind of scene will be very common in the future."
Su Xing wiped his mouth and said, "Is this a real war? It's more terrible and unacceptable than I thought."
Herag sighed: "This is nothing. The real number of war corpses is in the hundreds of thousands. The cruelty of war will only exceed your imagination."
Su Xing took a deep breath and said, "I'll trouble you to distribute the pensions to these PLA soldiers. Make sure every pension is distributed to their relatives."
Hellagur nodded and said, "Don't worry, leave it to me." Then Hellagur left.
W looked at Su Xing with a mocking look on his face: "You are afraid too? This is really the funniest thing I have ever seen."
"I don't know what I looked like in your eyes before, but now I have no memory of the past. It would be abnormal if I wasn't scared when I saw a corpse, right?
And there are tens of thousands of corpses here. Aren't you afraid? Who do you think I am? A demon?"
"You were indeed like a demon before, but now you look just like an ordinary person. Not only are you weak, but you are also timid. If it weren't for your intelligence that is still as smart as before, I would have suspected that you were possessed by someone."
Su Xing shook his head and said nothing?
It can't be considered as possession of another's body. The original Doctor had no memories after waking up. It can be said that he was reborn in disguise. He was just like the Doctor who woke up in the sarcophagus, except that he had the memories of an extra life.
What Su Xing has to consider now is Ursus's next move. Obviously, the failure of Grand Duke Baikal will only make Ursus alert. After all, ten thousand people are suppressing one hundred thousand people. This is no longer outrageous.
The emperor and other nobles would certainly try every means to obtain the manufacturing methods of weapons. They would never allow such things to be in the hands of the rebels who pose a threat to Ursus.
However, Su Xing had anticipated this. After all, it was only a matter of time before a war broke out with Ursus. With the current state of Chernobyl, it had the confidence to confront Ursus head-on.
Of course, it would be better if the emperor and the nobles reacted slower, at least it would give him more time to develop.
...............
The news of the failure of Grand Duke Baikal was soon obtained by the people sent by the emperor in the Holy Steed Castle and the Imperial Palace. After receiving the news, the intelligence personnel reported it to the emperor immediately.
The other nobles also learned the news at about the same time.
The first reaction of the emperor and nobles who received the news was disbelief. They all wondered if the intelligence officers had seen it wrong. How could such a thing be possible?
However, after the Grand Duke Baikal's army withdrew from the snowfield, the emperor and other nobles realized that this was true, and now they had to believe it even if they didn't want to.
However, the emperor and the nobles would rather believe that this was fake news, because this battle was too outrageous. One hundred thousand people were overwhelmed by ten thousand people, and the opponent was the Third Army led by Grand Duke Baikal, a famous strong army in Ursus.
This made the emperor and the nobles feel a sense of absurdity, but apart from the absurdity, what remained was fear. They were afraid of this kind of battle where they could win by defeating the larger force with the smaller one.
This means that as long as the other party can gather 100,000 people, then it will not be a problem to fight against an army of one million.
At this time, the emperor and the nobles also realized that this rebel group was probably not an ordinary rebel group, and they really had the ability to overthrow Ursus.
So the emperor immediately convened a parliament and summoned the nobles to discuss ways to eliminate the rebels.
However, after discussing for a long time, no good solution could be thought of. After all, the intelligence personnel only knew that Grand Duke Baikal was defeated, but they did not know the specific information of the battle.
The emperor and others can only wait for information from Grand Duke Baikal and ask him when he returns to the Castle of Saint Stein.
................
After waiting for a while, Grand Duke Baikal fled back from the snowfield in a panic. The nobles who went with him were also in a very miserable state, with their clothes torn to pieces. It was obvious that they had suffered a lot during the retreat.
Although these nobles did not look like nobles, their faces still showed relief at surviving the disaster. After all, they came back alive.
You know, some unlucky nobles lost their lives in the snowfield. Who knew those rebels were so treacherous? They even ambushed on the way out of the snowfield. If there were not many people to deal with the ambush, they might have stayed there.
After arriving at the Holy Castle, Grand Duke Baikal was summoned to the palace by the emperor before he could even rest.
Grand Duke Baikal was well prepared for this. When the emperor asked him about the details, he did not hide anything but explained in detail the weapons the rebels had and how many people in his Third Army had died.
After learning the specific information from the Grand Duke of Baikal, the emperor and the nobles realized how powerful the rebels were and how advanced their weapons were.
Thinking of this, both the emperor and other nobles knew that they could not allow the rebels to continue to grow and become stronger, otherwise Ursus would have to change his surname in a few years.
Thinking of this, the emperor and the nobles began to discuss ways to fight against the rebels' weapons, but after discussing for a long time, they could not come up with a good solution. Unless they could also invent such weapons, it would be impossible for ordinary soldiers to fight back.
Although the inner guards can be sent out, they have no good way to deal with such weapons, not to mention that the opponent also has weapons such as grenades. Even the inner guards may be hit if dozens of Originium grenades are thrown at them.
You have to know that the cost of an inner guard is not low. Each inner guard is the most elite soldier of Ursus. How much do the firearms and grenades on the opposite side cost?
From the information said by Grand Duke Baikal, we can know that this thing can already be mass-produced. Compared with the powerful soldiers like the Internal Guards who are one in a million, even the emperor would be heartbroken if he lost one.
In the end, the emperor and others still couldn't come up with any good solutions, but they obviously wouldn't give the rebels time to continue to grow stronger, so the emperor and the nobles reached a consensus on suppressing the rebels. They would join forces to kill the rebels first, and other things could be dealt with slowly.
The nobles also agreed. After all, it was enough for Ursus to have the emperor and the nobles like them to rule, and there was no need for anyone to come in and share the pie.
After reaching the cooperation, the emperor and the nobles began to work together to gather the army. In order to be absolutely sure, the emperor even sent out three inner guards to carry out the decapitation tactics. As long as the leader of the opposing side died, the army would be easy to deal with.
After the two sides reached a cooperation, they acted surprisingly quickly and assembled an army of 300,000 in less than three days. Although these troops were not all elite, they were much more powerful than some good-for-nothings.
In addition to these, three internal guards joined the army. They did not obey anyone's orders, and their mission to go to Chernobyl was only to kill the leader and leave Chernobyl leaderless.
The emperor wanted to mobilize more troops and try to wipe out all the rebels in Chernobog, but the rebels in Ursus were not limited to Chernobog, there were also many in other places.
However, the rebels in these places were not as powerful as those in Chernobyl. In order to annihilate the rebels in Chernobyl, the emperor and the nobles also withdraw some troops from these places.
However, Ursus' most elite troops are fighting against the evil demons at the northern border. They do not obey anyone's orders, not even the emperor and the nobles, because they are the last line of defense against the evil demons.
The high-level officials basically knew about the existence of evil demons, so even if they wanted to mobilize the troops there, they couldn't do it, because compared with the safety of all Terra, the survival of Ursus was simply unimportant to them.
Moreover, the main force resisting the evil demons in the Arctic ice field is the half-blood Wendigos. These people are not very welcome in Ursus, so the life and death of Ursus is really irrelevant to them.
No matter who rules Ursus, as long as supplies can be delivered regularly, the army doesn't care about anything else.
The emperor and the nobles also knew about these things. Although they didn't like these half-blood Wendigos very much, they dared not cut off the supply of supplies. If the supply of supplies was cut off, not to mention the Wendigos, the Ursus elite stationed in the snowfields would be the first to settle accounts with them.
After discussing how to deal with the Chernobyl rebels, the emperor and the nobles jointly assembled an army and marched towards Chernobyl. Next, the emperor and others prepared to wait for good news from the army.
......................
On the other side, Kal'tsit brought Ascalon and Shining to Longmen, and then took the road to the snowfield of Ursus.
Chapter 67 Entering Ursus
To the west of the Dragon Gate, closer to the original Chernobog, Kal'tsit, Ascalon and Shining passed through here and entered Ursus.
Seeing that the place where Chernobog was supposed to be had become a blank, Kal'tsit looked towards the snowfield in the north. She knew that the Doctor should have controlled Chernobog to go deep into the snowfield, otherwise she would not be able to avoid Ursus's gaze.
The three of them had to be careful when entering Ursus, after all, it would be bad if they were discovered. It would be okay if they met ordinary people, but it would be terrible if they met the internal guards.
Although each of them has the strength to fight against the inner guards, it is not good to attract the attention of Ursus. No matter how strong they are, they can only flee when facing the army.
Shining looked at the endless snowfield in the distance and asked, "According to Amiya, the Doctor has taken control of Chernobog. Before she left, Chernobog was already in the snowfield. I wonder where the Doctor is now?"
Kal'tsit looked into the distance with a thoughtful look in her eyes: "According to my understanding of him, since he is ready to fight against Ursus, he will definitely hide deep in the snowfield.
After all, the temperature in the snowfield is very low, and even the army cannot fight for a long time.
The doctor will definitely not leave here, that is......."
Kal'tsit didn't say the rest, and Shining didn't ask either. She was already used to Dr. Kal'tsit's way of leaving things half-hearted.
Ascalon did not interrupt the conversation between the two. This search for the Doctor would definitely not be smooth sailing, and even if he found the Doctor, he might not leave with them.
The Doctor now has no memories of his previous life. They are just a few strangers to him. No one would believe what strangers say, right?
In fact, Ascalon also suspected that the doctor's amnesia was fake? After all, no one could understand the doctor's thoughts?
