Alien Empire Total War

Chapter 38: Artillery Authority

"Oh my God, these people died so tragically, their bodies are about to become a sieve."

Looking at the corpses of the rebels lying on the street, a soldier in military uniform couldn't help stunned. His comrades beside him also looked disgusted. The indescribable things mixed together make the scalp tingle.

They did not continue to focus on the corpse on the ground, and left here quickly. Shortly after they left, the disgraced prisoner of war walked here under the guard of the soldiers, dragging the corpse on the ground and moving it to another place.

The sun shone on Charlie's face, who hadn't slept all night, and he couldn't help raising his hand to cover the dazzling light. At this moment, Lawrence, who had changed into a military uniform, walked over to him, saluted, and said in a tone of voice. With sheer joy: "Sir, the crossroads is ours, and it's a great victory."

"You did a good job, Lawrence." Charlie smiled lightly, put down his hand that covered the sun, and turned to look at the second battalion commander under him. Although the latter's face was still tired, his expression of joy was no matter what. cannot be concealed.

"Sir, we have taken the crossroads. Where are we going to attack next? With such a big movement last night, the rebels must have known about the fighting here."

"Don't be in a hurry," said Charlie. "You go to rest first. I have to meet the rebel commander first."

"Yes." Lawrence knew that Charlie wanted to get enough rest, so he did not refuse. He gave another military salute and turned to leave. Not long after he left, the general guards who were sent to count the battle damage took the Back to Charlie with the record.

In the battle last night, the casualties suffered by Charlie's troops can be said to be minimal. After the main force broke through the barricade from the front, the enemies encountered were basically looking down at the wind. Only a few enemies relied on the building to stand firm and resist, or occurred during the encounter. A brief firefight.

In the case of dim vision, the hit rate of both sides was not high, so the main casualties of the rebels came from the captured artillery and their exchange of fire with the infiltrating troops and the fire with the armed citizens, who really died from the back. There were few soldiers in the hands of the general offensive.

To sum up, Charlie's troops were killed 76 people, 69 people were wounded, and 13 people were missing, the enemy killed more than 240 people, and captured 955 people, not counting the number of missing or escaped people. .

In addition, they also seized a 12-pound infantry gun and its associated solid and grape bullets, 1,600 various rifles and enough ammunition for an infantry regiment to fight a long battle, and finally a 255 gp worth of ammunition. Booty.

The biggest gain in this battle was the artillery. From a certain point of view, Charlie captured more than one artillery, because after capturing the artillery, the system reminded him that he could recruit artillery units based on the artillery template. The artillery unit has four 12-pounder infantry guns and 18 professional artillerymen attached to them - these artillerymen are accompanied by the artillery, and like Charlie's general guards do not require real people to convert.

The recruitment fee for the artillery unit requires 1080 gold coins, and the maintenance cost is also a little higher than the musketeer’s recruitment fee. It costs 300 gold coins, and Charlie still thinks it is quite profitable. If it is customized in the real world, a thousand gold coins can’t buy one. door. More importantly, the artillery produced by the system has unlimited ammunition like in the game. In theory, as long as it does not explode, it can keep firing shells.

For the latter point alone, Charlie felt that the thousand gold coins were very worthwhile.

Charlie doesn't plan to recruit artillery yet. One reason is the lack of gold coins in his hand. Another reason is that he doesn't have the artillery yet. In other words, the captured artillery is enough for him.

Returning the battle report to the guards, Charlie began to think about his next whereabouts and how to deal with the prisoners of war. It was a sure thing that those prisoners of war would be converted into cannon fodder. His current financial resources were enough to convert all the more than 900 prisoners of war. After the conversion, where to go next is the question.

Before making a decision, he ordered someone to bring the map of Ankerton City.

The intersection he occupies is an important passage connecting the north of the city and the noble district. He continues to advance within the range that can enter the north of the city, and goes all the way to the Heroes' Square. The west leads to the west of the city, and the east is the main road to the rebels. Stronghold east of the city.

Chengdong can first be ruled out. It is full of factories and workers' dormitories, and there is no occupation value. Even if he can use the militia as a labor force to restart the factory, the goods produced will have no place to sell. West of the city can be considered, because the National Bank is there, but the funds stored there are likely to have been removed by the rebels.

Thinking of this, Charlie suddenly remembered the captured rebel commander. Someone who can become a commander must have a high status in the rebels, and maybe he can provide himself with valuable information.

However, considering that the other party has taken the position of the commander, the loyalty to the rebels must not be low. If you ask him directly, you may not get the answer you want~www.readwn.com~Charlie is ready to come. Sao operation, let him explain what he knows without reservation.

Under his orders, Sandy, several other party members and more than 100 prisoners of war, who were detained together with the prisoners of war, were taken out and headed to the headquarters under the supervision of heavily armed soldiers, watching the expressionless people around them. Soldier, Sandy knew he was about to be in a calamity - he'd been caught from his sleep last night and he'd felt as if he was still in a dream, and it was all so magical.

Who would have imagined that the armed citizens who took refuge in him were actually enemies who had unknowingly circled behind him. The only way to leave the noble district was blocked by them. He still can't figure out how the enemy appeared in the area. behind himself. In addition, he is also very depressed, the Sona Palace is about to be breached, the dawn of their common cause is close at hand, but he has become a prisoner of the enemy, and may even be walking on the road to the execution ground.

He looked around at the prisoners of war who were being escorted with him. Everyone was apprehensive, and their faces were filled with despair and decadence. They were suddenly picked out by soldiers and taken away alone. Anyone would think about the path to execute them.

Soon, they were sent to the clearing in front of the headquarters, and Charlie was already standing at the door waiting for them. After the prisoners of war were yelled at and stopped, the guard pointed in Sandy's direction and introduced Charlie his identity. .

Seeing the other party pointing to his position, Sandy's uneasiness became more and more intense, but he also realized that the other party should not want to execute his own people. at this place.

Just when he was thinking, the young man who was obviously the commander of the enemy suddenly moved.
