Chapter 427: Plenty of results

“So you really arrived on July 22nd?” Catherine asked in disbelief, “You should have just arrived at Xiaochi City and driven away the besieging army. "

"It turns out that those noble coalition forces are not that terrible." Horn patted Catherine's soft waist, "Aunt Catherine, you can't take advantage of me."

"Who cares?" Catherine, who had been attacked by Horn before based on her age and weight, finally got angry.

She jumped off Horn's lap, but failed to stand firm. She almost fell to the ground and glared at Horn: "How old are you? You called me aunt?"
< br>

"I'm nineteen, how about you?"

Katherine seemed to choke on her meal, and after a while she gritted her teeth and said, "Twenty-one."

"Impossible, Martin said Yes, you are older than him.”

“So what?” Catherine raised her strong pecs, “My life span is one hundred and fifty years. Thirty years is for a mortal. "I've just turned twenty."

"I'm a witch, so I'm nineteen years old. What's wrong with calling you aunt?" Catherine was aroused. , "Why are you pretending to be a little girl when you are so old?"

A rush of hot blood rushed straight to Catherine's forehead, and the pounding sound of her heart could almost be heard directly with her ears.

Blood pressure is high.

I have to say that Catherine suddenly felt that she recognized Horn as Juanno, which was quite reasonable. This big turdmouth seemed to be carved from the same mold.

It’s just that Horn is a bit more eccentric, while Juanno is more straightforward and talks about the old woman.

“Get out, get out!”

"Why?"

"I'm going to change clothes, get out!" Pushing Horn's back, Catherine pushed him all the way out of the bedroom and slammed the door behind her.

Patting the dust on his shoulders, Horn did not leave immediately. He pressed his head against the door for seven or eight seconds. When he heard the rustling sound of washing inside, Horn slowly exhaled. .

After this gag, this witch probably doesn’t have much will to die.

When Horn saw her before, he could clearly feel that she still had the will to die, and even the desire to survive was very weak.

This kind of witch that can spawn plants is exactly what Horn needs now.

You can’t die, it’s still useful.

In order to feed her blood in time and prevent her from giving up treatment, Horn stayed by her side for three days.

Otherwise, with Horn’s busy schedule, how could he find time to sit on the bedside and read?

As for the fact that one's own blood can regulate the violent mana, it is really an unexpected surprise, but...

Horn touched his neck. For some reason, when he came into contact with Catherine, who was still furious, he felt a pulling sensation on his neck again and blood flowed out.

The feeling only lasted for a moment, and he doubted whether it was his illusion.

Walking out of the inner bedroom, Horn sat down on the main seat in the conference room and looked at the busy people in the conference room.

The battle in Rapid City has ended for three days, but the post-war statistical work and review meetings are still continuing.

This battle involved tens of thousands of people and covered hundreds of kilometers. For such a large-scale battle, there were too many things that needed statistics and review.

Fortunately, Horn gave them a deadline and forced them to produce a brief report within the specified time.

Seeing Horn sit down, Armand, who was writing on the paper, picked up the report and walked quickly to Horn's side.

"How many of those edict knights ran away?" Horn took the report from Armand, but did not read it, but asked Armand directly.

"Arman's command company has 300 people, of which 18 command knights escaped, 25 flag knights escaped, and 52 squire knights escaped." "So many squire knights escaped?" Horn scratched I opened the report with my head bent, and after reading it for a while, I suddenly realized.

This squire knight is a lightly armored unit and was sent to the battlefield early to engage in guerrilla warfare.

The war situation was not right and they ran very fast. The main target of the Salvation Army was the Order Knights. Naturally, they had no energy to deal with them.

“What about the Imperial Order Company in the city?”

“We attacked from the south city gate, and the Imperial Order Company escaped from the west city gate. The total number of the opponent’s Imperial Order Knights is unknown, but we left three behind. More than ten.”

After practicing in Kasha County for a while, Armand became much more capable. He concluded: “Overall, the number of knights we have annihilated and captured is definitely more than a hundred. , the other party probably only escaped with a dissatisfied command company.”

Horn counted on his fingers. Prince Condai had a total of nine command companies. One was killed in the Battle of Pavia, one and a half were killed in the Battle of Rapid City, and one was killed in Meliati.

Then Prince Kong Dai currently only has five reorganized command companies and one dissatisfied command company left.

Among them, there are four in the battlefield of Upper River County, one in Feiliu Castle led by Barnifus, and half led by Elad.

Had it not been for a heavy fortress downstream blocking the waterway, Horn would have wanted to take the opportunity to take a boat down the river and push the Feiliu Fort away.

With Hotam County’s empty military strength, who can stop him?

"What is the overall situation of the Salvation Army in this battle?"

"Ten old regiments killed 127 people, seriously injured 388 people, and lightly injured 1,253 people;

Two new black hat army regiments died in the battle 115 people, 110 seriously injured and 222 slightly injured;

As for the Xiaochi City militia, only about 500 people have arrived at the camp outside the city so far, and the rest should have ran away."

And. Compared with the Battle of Pavia, an Order Company was also annihilated. At that time, the Salvation Army lost more than a quarter of its soldiers (minor injuries were not included).

Today, if we look at the proportion of regular legions alone, it has only lost about one-tenth.

Of course, in terms of quantity, it is almost the same as the previous Battle of Pavia, but the biggest difference is:

In the Battle of Pavia, the Salvation Army only had to deal with 500 extraordinary ones. In Rapids City, they have to deal with more than 1,200 extraordinary ones.

"What about the church army?"

"If you exclude the retinue knights, they have 1,200 extraordinary knights in the true sense." Armand scratched his head, "If only In terms of extraordinary knights, we have annihilated and captured nearly half of them.”

Following Armand's story, Horn flipped through the report.

The battle three days ago was located in a plain area and the opponent had too many troops.

Although the Salvation Army defeated them, the proportion of those actually captured or killed was not as high as in the Battle of Pavia.

But compared to other revolting cats and dogs, this annihilation rate is frighteningly high.

Of the 1,200 extraordinary knights who went on the expedition, only about 700 escaped from the surrounding areas of Rapids City. The total number of guards and retinue knights captured by the Salvation Army was actually nearly 10,000.

Other nearby armies quickly ran away after receiving the news of the defeat of the king's division. Even the defenders of the important town of Ansenberg ran away.

After the Battle of Rapids City, the Imperial Order Company was crippled, and the remaining noble knights did not dare to mess around. They probably could only stick to Antler Township in the north of River County.

Currently, Horn has not continued to attack this part of the army. On the one hand, there are many castles on the opposite side, and it is not worthwhile to eat them little by little. On the other hand, there is no need for it yet.

The main direction of attack he chose was Gouhu Township, where Jeanne was currently leading her army to attack.

Once Gouhu Township is captured by the Salvation Army, the southern part of Lower River County, the eastern part of Casha County and the entire Longsand County can be connected as one.

The political talents of Kasha County and the economic talents of Lower River County can all be fed back to the Salvation Military Government of Langsand County.

While Horn was still thinking about the complementarity of the three-county alliance, a sound of pushing the door came from behind.

Katherine, who had changed into a pair of personal clothes, appeared in front of Horn.
