Chapter 46 Factors Determining War
After communicating with Magister Camilla, Xu Yi had to admit that with the power of the military magic machinery produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it is impossible to kill the Magister head-on.
However, Magister Camilla also admitted that these military magic machines can still pose a certain threat to him, so as long as the appropriate method is adopted, he can actually compete head-on with a magister-level magician for a period of time, and there is even hope. Force the opponent back.
The key point is that as long as the supply of military magic machinery is sufficient, it can continue to attack.
And no matter how powerful a magister is, his magic power is limited.
If the suppression of the magister is maintained, the final result must be that the magister retreats due to insufficient magic power.
But the problem is... how to suppress the magister?
Compared with the current military magic machinery, the magister can use extremely powerful magic, and most importantly, he also has incomparable flexibility.
If unprepared, the magister can easily burst out powerful power in a short period of time, but it is difficult for the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce equipped with military magic machinery to immediately burst out with more powerful attack power to suppress the magister .
If it is an encounter, it is very likely that the magister can easily kill a whole team of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce guards, and then retreat without injury, looking for an opportunity to attack again, but the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escorts have nothing to do.
"I told you not to think about being able to confront the magister head-on. If you are really worried about the magisters of the Kendela Empire, first think about how to defend against their attacks. As long as you can defend it. Then the role that the magister can play In fact, it is very limited. After all, the number of magisters is too small. It cannot really replace the army." Camilla magister finally gave advice.
"Well... that's true. But... I don't like being too passive." Xu Yi spread his hands.
Magister Camilla rolled her eyes: "Do you still want to take the initiative when facing the Magister? Do you think you are the Great Magister?"
Xu Yi smiled helplessly: "Okay, I was thinking too far. But now that the Kingdom of Luerxun is doing this actual combat experiment for me, I can save a lot of effort."
The magister Camilla was stunned: "I thought you were really helping the Luerson Kingdom this time, so you just let them be the test subjects?"
"You can't say that." Xu Yi smiled and shook his head. "The Rulson Kingdom can be regarded as a barrier between the Standing Principality and the Candela Empire. Being able to keep them is also good for our chamber of commerce."
"Then why don't you use this reason to convince those guys in the chamber of commerce? You have to make a lot of people secretly speculate whether there is a conflict within the chamber of commerce, guess that you, the president, have lost control of the chamber of commerce?" Camilla Demon The instructor couldn't help asking.
"Because I found a problem, except me. It seems that everyone thinks from the bottom of their hearts that the Kandela Empire is simply invincible."
"Nonsense, that's the Candela Empire. Why do you make people think that a small country like the Rulson Kingdom can defeat them?" Magister Camilla gave him a blank look.
"That's why I'm too lazy to convince them with words, and I hope the Kingdom of Lurson will prove my point with facts. Grandpa, what do you think?"
Magister Camilla pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "I thought the same as them before. But after training with the guards a few times during this period, I think...the Kingdom of Rulson may really have hope of winning. "
"Really?" Xu Yi smiled, but suddenly his face collapsed, and he said dejectedly: "But the problem lies with the magister. The most powerful people in the Rulson Kingdom are just a few great magicians. If the Kendela Empire dispatches The words of the magister. I fear they will be hard to resist."
Magister Camilla laughed instead, and patted Xu Yi on the shoulder. He comforted: "Don't worry, at least in the early stage, the Candela Empire will not dispatch magisters?"
"Oh?"
"Great magicians and magicians above the level of great magicians are not allowed to participate in wars that invade other countries, otherwise they will be removed from the magicians' union. This is one of the principles of the magicians' union when it was established." Card Magister Mira explained.
"There is still this rule? That's great!" Xu Yi's eyes lit up immediately, and he clenched his fist hard. "If that's the case, I have 100% confidence that the Luerxun Kingdom will win this war!"
Magister Camilla sighed, with a complicated expression on her face.
Before Xu Yi made these military magic machines, everyone on the mainland firmly believed that the main factor that determines the outcome of a war is actually who has the most powerful magician on both sides.
But now that there is a military magic machine, Magister Camilla is very sure that the outcome of the war will be determined by whoever has the more powerful military magic machine.
And the role of magicians in the war may be greatly weakened.
In this way, the status of magicians on the mainland is bound to be seriously affected.
To put it in a pessimistic way, magicians might lose their transcendent status on this continent for thousands of years.
As a traditional magician, Magister Camilla felt somewhat disappointed by this possible influence.
But when he saw Xu Yi's sunny and confident face, Magister Camilla couldn't help laughing.
Although the magicians are very likely to lose their high status on the mainland because of this guy, but also because of the appearance of this guy, the magicians find that there is another road to choose before them.
Compared with the powerful but destructive impression left by magicians in the past, if we follow the path that Xu Yi is planning now, the impression that magic brings to people is more about convenience, and more about it. The impression given by magicians should be respected rather than feared from the bottom of their hearts.
Magister Camilla liked this transformation very much, so even though he felt a little disappointed, he still sincerely hoped that Xu Yi could realize his ideal.
This kind of support has nothing to do with Steele, it is purely because of his appreciation and recognition of Xu Yi.
###
In the autumn of 3789 in the continental calendar, a war broke out in the southwest of Sainz Continent, which attracted the attention of the entire continent.
The two parties involved in this war are the Candela Empire, one of the two major empires on the continent, and the Rulson Kingdom, an unknown small kingdom that is inconspicuous on the Sainz continent.
Originally, according to the inference of almost everyone, the strength of the two sides is extremely different, and the Candela Empire is bound to crush the Luerxun Kingdom with ease, without giving the other party any possibility of counterattack.
The only suspense is how long the Rulson Kingdom can last.
However, the course of this war was beyond everyone's expectations.
At the end of September, the Candela Empire formally declared war on the Luerxun Kingdom, and then assembled a total of 50,000 soldiers from three legions to attack the Luerxun Kingdom.
The Rulson Kingdom immediately accepted the declaration of war, and assembled 20,000 soldiers at the border between the two countries to prepare for resistance.
On September 27, the two sides fought for the first time at the border between the two countries.
As a result, after a day of fierce fighting, the Candela Empire lost more than 3,000 soldiers and was forced to retreat, while the Rulson Kingdom lost... zero.
On September 28, the two sides fought again on the border between the two countries.
This time, the Candela Empire learned the lesson of yesterday and launched a huge offensive of more than 30,000 people, intending to defeat the army of the Rulson Kingdom in one fell swoop.
However, the final result of the battle was that the Candela Empire was defeated again, with seven thousand casualties.
There was also damage to the Rulson Kingdom, but it was so slight that it could almost be ignored.
On October 3rd, the Imperial Candela army, which had been resting for five days, launched an attack on the Luerxun Kingdom again, throwing all its troops into the battle, and the total number of participants exceeded 40,000.
At the same time, the Rulson Kingdom also invested all its forces to contend with it.
In the end, after three days of continuous fierce fighting between the two sides, the Candela Empire continued to be defeated and lost more than 10,000 troops.
As for the Rulson Kingdom, the casualties exceeded a thousand for the first time.
It's just that compared with the losses of the Candela Empire, the casualties of thousands of people are also negligible.
As a result, three battles took place within ten days. The Candela Empire invested a total of more than 50,000 troops, but suffered an astonishing casualty of more than 20,000 in the end, while the Luerson Kingdom invested a total of less than 20,000 troops, but the final number of casualties was only less than 20,000. thousand!
Such a disparity in the proportion of casualties shocked everyone who paid attention to this war.
Although before the war broke out, some people speculated that the Candela Empire might have suffered a small loss because it underestimated the enemy, but now the astonishing casualty ratio of the Candela Empire is far from being described as a small loss. defeat.
On the contrary, the army of the Rulson Kingdom showed a powerful combat power that shocked everyone.
Facing 50,000 enemies with a number of 20,000, but being able to keep one's own casualties so low while inflicting such high casualties on the enemy simply overturned everyone's common sense.
No matter how elite the Luerson Kingdom's army is, it shouldn't have such exaggerated results, right?
If all the countries and people on the mainland paid attention to this war before, it was only because the mainland had been quiet for too long, and a sudden war would naturally become the focus, then after the three battles between the Candela Empire and the Rulson Kingdom, Everyone's eyes on this war became more focused.
Among these concerned eyes, the most contained ones are doubts.
How did the army of the Rulson Kingdom possess such amazing combat power? (To be continued..)
