Chapter 46 Factors That Determine War
After communicating with Magila, 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 Magi in the front.√∟
However, Magister Camilla also admitted that these military magical machinery can still pose a certain threat to him, so as long as the appropriate method is taken, it can actually compete with the magician at the magician level for a period of time, and even hope to force the other party to retreat.
The key is that as long as military magic machinery is sufficiently provided, it can launch attacks continuously.
No matter how powerful the magician is, his magic has limited power.
If you keep suppressing the magician, the final result will inevitably be that the magician will retreat due to insufficient magic.
But the question is...how to suppress the mage?
Compared with the current military magic machinery, the magician can use extremely powerful magic, and the most important thing is that it has incomparable flexibility.
If you are unprepared, the mage can easily burst out powerful power in a short period of time, but the New Air Chamber of Commerce guards equipped with military magic machinery will find it difficult to immediately burst out more powerful attack power to suppress the mage.
If it is an encounter, it is very likely that the mage can kill a whole team of New Air Chamber of Commerce guards at will, and then retreat without any injuries, seeking an opportunity to attack again, but the New Air Chamber of Commerce guards has no choice.
"I told you not to think about being able to compete with the magicians head-on. If you are really worried about the magicians in the Candela Empire, first think about how to defend against their attacks. As long as you can defend, the role the magician can play is actually very limited. After all, the number of magicians is too small. They cannot really replace the army." Magician Camilla finally gave a suggestion.
"Well... it's true. But... I don't like being too passive." Xu Yi spread his hands and said.
Magila rolled her eyes: "When you face a magister, do you still want to take the initiative? Do you think you are a great magister?"
Xu Yi smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, I'm thinking too far. But now the Ruhrson Kingdom is doing this practical experiment for me, which can save a lot of effort."
Magila was stunned: "I thought you kid really helped the Kingdom of Rursson this time. Did you just let them be used as a test subject?"
"You can't say that either." Xu Yi smiled and shook his head. "The Kingdom of Rulson is a barrier between the Principality of Stantin and the Kandra Empire. It will also be beneficial to our chamber of commerce to protect them."
"Then why don't you use this reason to convince the guys in the Chamber of Commerce? It's a lot of people now secretly guess whether there are conflicts within the Chamber of Commerce, and guess that you, the president, have lost control of the Chamber of Commerce?" Magila couldn't help asking.
"Because I discovered a problem, except me. It seems that everyone thinks from the bottom of their heart that the Kandra Empire is simply invincible."
"Nonsense, that's the Candela Empire. Why do you think that a small country like the Rulson Kingdom can beat them?" Magila gave him a blank look.
"So I'm too lazy to convince them with words, and hope that the Kingdom of Rulson will prove my point with facts. Grandpa, what do you think?"
Magila thought for a moment and nodded, "I thought the same as they thought before. But after training with the Guards a few times during this period, I feel... the Kingdom of Rulson is probably really hopeful of winning."
"Is it?" Xu Yi smiled, but suddenly his face collapsed and he said dejectedly: "But the problem lies in the magician. The most powerful ones in the Rulson Kingdom are the few great magicians. If the Kandra Empire dispatches magicians, I'm afraid they will be difficult for them to resist."
However, Magila Camila laughed, patted Xu Yi on the shoulder, and comforted him: "Don't worry, at least in the early stage, the Kandra Empire will not send a magister?"
"oh?"
"Magic wizards and wizards above the level of the Great Magician are not allowed to participate in wars that invade other countries, otherwise they will be removed from the Magician Union. This is one of the principles at the beginning of the establishment of the Magician Union." Magira explained.
"There is still this rule? That's great!" Xu Yi's eyes lit up and he clenched his fists hard. "If that's the case, I have 100% confidence in the Ruhrson Kingdom winning this war!"
Magila sighed, her face slightly complicated.
Before Xu Yi, the boy, came up with these military magical machinery, everyone on the mainland firmly believed that the main factor that determines the outcome of a war was actually the one who had the magicians that were stronger on both sides.
But now that the military magic machinery has been established, Magila has made the war master extremely sure that the outcome of the war will be the military magic machinery that the two sides have will be more powerful.
The role played by magicians in war is probably much weakened.
In this way, the magicians' status on the continent will inevitably be seriously affected.
To be pessimistic, the magician may lose his transcendent status on this continent for thousands of years.
As a traditional magician, Magister Camilla couldn't help but feel a little disappointed with the possible impact of this.
However, when seeing Xu Yi's face full of sunshine and confidence, Magister Camilla couldn't help laughing.
Although the magicians are very likely to lose the lofty status he had on the continent because of this guy, the appearance of this guy also made the magicians find that there is another way in front of them.
Compared with the impression of powerful but destructive power left by magicians in the past, if we follow the path planned by Xu Yi now, the impression brought by magic on people is probably more convenient, while the impression given by magicians should make people respect from the heart rather than fear.
Magila likes this change very much, so although he feels a little disappointed, he still sincerely hopes that Xu Yi can achieve his ideal.
This support has nothing to do with Steele, it is simply because of his appreciation and recognition of Xu Yi.
###
In the autumn of 3789, a war breaking out in the southwest of the Synes continent attracted the attention of the entire continent.
The two parties involved in this war are one of the two empires on the continent, the Candela Empire, and the Rursson Kingdom, an unknown small kingdom that is not prominent on the Continent of Sains.
Originally, according to almost everyone's inference, the strength of the two sides was extremely different, and the Candela Empire would inevitably easily crush the Rursun Kingdom without giving the other party any possibility of counterattack.
The only suspense is just how long the Ruhrson Kingdom can last.
However, the course of this war was beyond everyone's expectations.
At the end of September, the Kandra Empire officially declared war on the Rulson Kingdom, and then gathered three legions and a total of 50,000 soldiers to launch an attack on the Rulson Kingdom.
The Ruhrson 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 had their first contact battle at the border between the two countries.
As a result, after a day of fierce fighting, the Candela Empire suffered more than 3,000 soldiers and was forced to retreat, while the Rulson Kingdom suffered losses of... zero.
On September 28, the two sides fought again at the border between the two countries.
This time, the Kandra Empire learned from yesterday's lessons and launched a huge offensive of more than 30,000 people at once, intending to defeat the army of the Rursun Kingdom in one fell swoop.
However, the final result of the battle was that the Kandra Empire was defeated again, with casualties reaching 7,000.
The Ruhrson Kingdom also suffered damage, but it was minimal and almost negligible.
On October 3, the Candeladi team, which had been resting for five days, launched another attack on the Rursun Kingdom, investing all military forces, and the total number of people participating in the war exceeded 40,000.
At the same time, the Ruhrson Kingdom also invested all its troops to compete with it.
In the end, after three days of continuous fierce battles, the Candela Empire continued to be defeated and lost more than 10,000 troops.
The casualties in the Rulson Kingdom exceeded 1,000 for the first time.
However, compared with the losses in the Candela Empire, the casualties of thousands of people can also be ignored.
So three battles occurred within ten days. The Kandra Empire invested more than 50,000 troops, but eventually suffered shocking casualties of more than 20,000. The Ruhrson Kingdom invested only 20,000 troops, but the final casualties were only less than 2,000!
Such a huge gap in casualties ratios shocked everyone who was concerned about this war.
Although before the war, some people speculated that the Kandera Empire might suffer a small loss because it underestimated the enemy too much, the shocking casualties ratio of the Kandera Empire is far from being described as a small loss, and it can be said to be a big defeat.
On the contrary, the army of the Rulson Kingdom showed strong combat power that shocked everyone.
Facing 50,000 enemies with a 20,000-00 enemy can make your casualties so low, and causing such high casualties to the enemy is simply overturning everyone's common sense.
No matter how elite the army of the Ruhrson Kingdom is, it should not have such exaggerated results, right?
If all the countries and people on the mainland were concerned about this war before, but because the mainland had been calm for too long, a sudden outbreak of war would certainly become the focus, then after these three battles between the Candela Empire and the Rulson Kingdom, everyone's eyes projected on this war seemed to be more focused.
Among these attention, the most common ones are doubts.
What exactly does the army of the Rulson Kingdom rely on to have such amazing combat power? (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
