The lord hunted down by the game

Chapter 35 Questioning
[The lottery reward pool has been generated: Qin Army crossbowman unit card, 2000 game coins, powerful blood recovery pill.

The draw begins...

Congratulations to the host for drawing 2000 game coins. 】

With the sound of gold coins falling into the tank, Yuri's cleared game coins reached an unprecedented height!
"The previous 500 Xiongnu Condor Shooters were 1500 game coins, and now the 1000 Qin Army trials are 2000 game coins.

One is 3 times the quantity and the other is 2 times the quantity. This should show that the Qin army's trial soldiers that appeared this time are not as good as the Xiongnu eagle shooters in quality.

Because it's not because of the cavalry?

However, if you look at it from the perspective of earth history, the gap in combat effectiveness between the two is indeed not small. After all, the Xiongnu eagle archers were elite cavalry archers during the heyday of the Huns in the ancient Han Dynasty.

The word "condor shooting" is originally a nomadic nomadic name for the elite cavalry.

The weapon technology of the Qin army is an era behind that of the Xiongnu, so the low evaluation is understandable.

Even according to the game, the Qin army that appeared this time is just the most basic ordinary soldiers. The Qin elite in the game should be the Qin army such as the Iron Eagle, and it is also not as good as the Xiongnu Condor Archer who is close to the top Xiongnu forces. .

Because of this gap in individual quality, there were 1000 Qin soldiers, and only 500 Xiongnu eagle shooters. This may also be a balance of game trials.

There may be a gap between game trials of the same rank, but the gap will not be too large, and the gap in individual combat power and other aspects will be made up in quantity. "

Yuri secretly analyzed the military strength of the two silver-level trials.

At this moment, Yuri suddenly noticed that Commander Andrew, who was in charge of the exercise infantry regiment, and two other commanders at the same level were walking over with gloomy expressions.

"Master Yuri, I hope that what happened today can be given a reasonable explanation."

Andrew, who had lost the most, suppressed undisguised anger in his words.

If Yuri's identity hadn't been taken into consideration, Andrew would have cursed a long time ago.

Even though Andrew was born into a noble family, he had already developed a rough habit after serving in the army for so long. Otherwise, he would not be able to suppress the elite Sauron Legion soldiers.

The Sauron Legion is a relatively traditional standing army.

The standing army of this era is not uniformly recruited by the state. Among the European powers controlled by the nobles, the state's overall planning ability is not that strong.

The recruitment method of the standing army is often to allocate a certain amount of recruitment fees to each senior commander, and then let them recruit and train recruits by themselves.

These senior commanders themselves are nobles, and their families have considerable power and connections.

And they are all veteran officers, each of them will set up a recruit training camp in a different place suitable for recruiting.

After receiving the money, these recruit training camps will go around to recruit soldiers of the right age, and recruit young and strong soldiers into the army in the form of mercenaries with military pay.

Of course, this method of directly recruiting soldiers is more advanced than mercenaries.

Mercenaries are hired individually, but this method of recruitment is to directly distribute the general's salary to the individual.

Those senior commanders were themselves elites, supporters of the state itself.

The so-called empire is actually an aristocratic country. The foundation of European empires is mainly the aristocracy, because without the empire, there is no aristocratic privilege. For the sake of their own butt problems, the aristocrats must support the empire!
Therefore, when senior commanders of noble origin recruit troops, the loyalty of the army is worth ensuring.

Much better than those mercenary leaders without titles!
This is why standing armies are more reliable than mercenaries.

In addition, although senior commanders are responsible for recruiting and training soldiers, the financial power is controlled by the central government, and after recruits are trained, the central government will place a large number of middle-level and even low-level officers into the ranks.

This method of recruiting soldiers is actually a model of cooperation between the central government and the nobles to control military power.

After all, the central government needs aristocratic officers to lead troops to fight, so it must share part of the rights.

The high-ranking noble officials who have a certain amount of military power, in turn, become the natural supporters of the empire. As long as the emperor and the parliament are not too brain-dead, the nobles will not overthrow the existing government.

Otherwise, if a republic is formed, wouldn't the privileges of the nobility be gone?
Those most eager for stability are often those aristocratic classes who have already enjoyed privileges.

As a matter of course, the Sauron Legion also followed this path.

The infantry regiment Andrew led was recruited and trained by himself, and the Sauron family would only pay for it at most.

Of course, Andrew is also a vassal of the Sauron family, a minor nobleman who once served Earl Sauron.

However, the infantry regiment itself was Andrew's capital. If the infantry regiment was wiped out, even if Earl Sauron didn't pursue it, paying him to rebuild and replenish the infantry regiment would be a huge blow to Andrew.

This means that Andrew has to spend a lot of time and energy to retrain an army. How can the original veterans be used?

The combat power of the troops in his hands is insufficient, and his political capital is naturally reduced, which has a great impact on Andrew's career.

This is why Andrew is angry.

As for the other two regiment-level commanders, they were just dissatisfied with Yuri's cursed spirit and came to stand for Andrew.

Everyone will feel sad when the rabbit dies and the fox. Although the other two troops lost little in this accident, they still feel very sympathetic to see Andrew, who has lost half of his troops.

We are all colleagues from the same legion, so naturally we have to stand for each other.

What's more, everyone thought it was Yuri's mistake, otherwise how could there be so many enemies out of thin air?
"What does this have to do with me?

Those enemies that suddenly appeared were not summoned by me. "

Yuri retorted inexplicably.

Of course he can't admit it!

"Only Master Yuri present has the evidence of provoking the spirit of the curse. Those enemies who suddenly appeared, died and disappeared without a trace must not be living people. Only the spirit of the curse possesses this strange ability."

Andrew asked word for word.

"Hehe, you investigated me very clearly."

Yuri sneered.

"This is the quality a qualified noble officer should have."

Andrew replied confidently.

Today, he wants to confirm the fact that Yuri provoked the cursed spirit. Only in this way can he be picked out in the follow-up accountability.

Otherwise, it would be difficult for his infantry regiment, which lost more than half, to apply for sufficient funds for supplementary training.

Not even his place is guaranteed.

If a high-ranking commander inflicts heavy losses on his troops, the higher-ups will not blame him.

"In this case, you should know that the cursed spirits I suffer will only attack after a while."
