Bronze Dragon: Tyrant's Road to Conquest

"If you need support, I will give you the legion."

Tyrell took the first knight Taya, who had completed the inauguration ceremony, and stood on the wall of Lambros, the city of knights, looking at the portals unfolding one after another on the great plain outside the city.

One after another, the horses were shiny with oil, and the centaurs were strong and powerful. They were holding spears or bows and arrows. They walked out of the teleportation array in a steady stream and gathered spontaneously on the great plains.

This is a force on the Sedellin Islands that has been ignored by Tyrell for a long time and is not valued by him, because on the islands, the centaurs, as natural cavalry, basically cannot exert their racial advantages.

The only contribution they can make to Tyrell is to select the best individuals, go to the Abyss Arena, and then continue to challenge the limits of the race and work hard to become a qualified champion knight.

However, the threshold set by Tyrell is becoming more and more stringent, which means that the probability of an ordinary centaur becoming a champion knight is no longer one in ten thousand, but one in fifty thousand, or even one hundred thousand. one part.

For an ordinary centaur, the champion knight is no longer a target that can be pursued, but an unreachable and untouchable dream.

In this case, the vast majority of centaurs naturally gave up the struggle, because there was really no goal for them to pursue.

The most important reason why Tyrell ignores and does not pay attention to centaurs is that he currently has no place to use these natural cavalry. Even if he comes to the civilized world and occupies the seaport, his tentacles of power will be universal. Starting from Nolando, it spreads to the ocean.

However, it was different now. The situation had undergone earth-shaking changes. In order to chase a devil, he came to the north of the Sukrit continent, which was mainly composed of flat grassland terrain.

To put it simply, this place is extremely suitable for cavalry, especially large-scale group charges. Most of the terrain in the country of the Jotun Knights is very suitable for cavalry operations. There are only a few hilly and mountainous areas that are not suitable for four-legged land cavalry. .

"These centaurs are all left to you to command."

Tyrell stretched out his hand and pointed at the mass of centaurs in front of him. These were all adult male centaurs, and every one of them was a qualified warrior.

Although he did not specifically issue an order, when Lord Sedellin, who almost never asked the Centaur tribe to do anything for him, issued a recruitment order, all the centaur gathering places on the islands were The best warriors were sent out.

The older centaur knew how much their tribe owed Lord Sedellin. Without the noble dragon's connivance and protection, it would have been impossible for their tribe to develop into the largest number of centaurs in the Sedellin Islands. As a biological group, they can't even get out of the small island on the outside of the archipelago.

"Give it all to me?"

Taiya, who was still worried about the soldiers, heard Di Ruier's words. Even though she still had a lot of resentment and unwillingness hidden in her heart, she couldn't help but open her mouth slightly at this moment, feeling incredible.

"How many are they?"

"I request to recruit one hundred thousand people, that should be enough, right?"

Tyrell's tone was understated and a bit careless. The number of centaurs in Sedellin Islands has already exceeded one million. The breeding ability of short-growing species is very amazing as long as the basic material supply can be guaranteed. .

"One hundred thousand!"

Taiya couldn't help but swallow.

"Don't be too happy too early. They are all wild centaurs who have not received military training. If you want them to be put to use and follow your pace to charge, you have to arrange for someone to train them. Of course, the premise is that you You have to convince them and make them obey your orders."

Tyrell poured cold water on the increasingly excited female knight.

He has dependents, slaves and vassals, he has them all, they may be of use to take over the land country for him, but there are none, and the centaurs are of no use to him at all.

What can a group that has only developed to the primitive nomadic stage be used for? Let them police and guard the city? Don't be kidding, if they are allowed to enter the city, it will not cause the crime rate to soar. If it is not managed properly, vicious events such as massacres may occur.

All kinds of tragic things will happen among the same race, let alone heterogeneous races. Even if the Centaur tribe has grown to a million people, Tyrell has never thought of using them to take over the human country. Because it is not suitable at all. It just needs to mobilize troops to fight, and that is another matter.

But it's still the same problem, because the centaurs' level of civilization is really too low, and their military literacy only goes out to hunt and join forces to capture large beasts.

Small groups can infiltrate, investigate, and fight. These guys can all come in handy, but once the number of people gathered exceeds a thousand or even tens of thousands, it will definitely cause chaos, because these guys have no relevant experience at all, and the area of ​​​​the ocean island is Limiting the appearance of the Centaur and Ten Thousand Cavalry regiments.

Therefore, even if Tyrell used the resources of the Jotun Knights to build a teleportation array and mobilized 100,000 young centaurs from the Sedellin Islands in one sentence, he wanted them to form an organized legion and form a combat effectiveness. There is no need to count on time.

Commanding one person is a completely different level of difficulty than commanding ten people. To command a hundred people, you need to establish a command system. To command a thousand people, the difficulty is doubled again. Being able to command ten thousand people is enough to become a good general. If you can Commanding 100,000 people to fight would be enough to become a famous commander who left his life in the books and left a mark on history.

“Not just training, you need to provide them with the food they need.”

Monte, who was following from the side, reminded that he could actually tell that these centaurs were teleported from the Sedellin Islands, which he now knew nothing about, which made him feel a little curious.

What has become of the current Sedellin Islands under the rule of this dragon lord? Anyway, he has become the slave of this lord, and he has an identity that allows him to go back and take a walk openly.

"..."

Having a team of knights of her own and having been in contact with the army, Taiya was not a novice who didn't know anything. She soon recovered from the joy of being reinforced by 100,000 centaurs, and her solemn look filled her again. face.

One hundred thousand elite centaurs, just the daily consumption of supplies, was enough to make her miserable. If she had to train them again and make them a fighting force, it would be a nightmare.

"There are too many. The centaurs coming to support now are enough."

Seeing that the centaurs were still stepping on the teleportation formation, and they were coming continuously, Taiya had already realized that the centaurs who could not immediately set foot on the battlefield, even if they came over, would only be a heavy burden.

"This is enough?"

"Let me train them first, and then let the remaining centaurs come over. By using veterans to lead new recruits, they can grow up quickly."

"Yeah, okay."

Tyrell had no objections. In fact, he didn't care.

He just wanted to use these centaurs to see the abilities of this female knight. She didn't have the ability to train tens of thousands of centaurs. It didn't matter. She had the ability to select such talents, which was enough.

A qualified ruler does not need to be omniscient and omnipotent, but only needs to be able to make the best use of things and make the best use of people's talents.

As for how many centaurs would die in this process, to be honest, Tyrell didn't really care.

This group of people has enjoyed it for so long under his protection, and it's their turn to pay, and their efforts will not come cheap to others.

The land they hold on to and develop will become the soil for their descendants to grow up. There are too many places suitable for centaurs to breed in the Jotun Knight Country.

With the help of the catalysis and integration of war, he can also transform the Kingdom of Jotun Knights from a single human country into a multi-racial knight country.

In the end, under the strong request of the first knight Taiya, only 30,000 centaurs successfully left the Sedelin Islands and came to the northern plains of the mainland.

As Tyrell expected, they showed huge chaos. Thirty thousand centaurs came from dozens of islands. Although they could communicate with each other in language, no one recognized each other, especially Taiya wanted them to The self-selection of middle- and lower-level officers directly triggered dozens of vicious violent incidents.

The centaurs who came to support had not yet gone to the frontier battlefield. Instead, dozens of corpses were left outside the city of Lambros. If Taiya hadn't discovered it and stopped it in time, there would have been more casualties.

But even so, it made the newly appointed First Knight miserable, but she had to endure it no matter how painful it was.

Although her identity is legal and reasonable, legal principles can only be effective if they are supported by sufficient strength, otherwise it is nonsense.

Her father passed away suddenly, and she rose to power hastily with the support of a foreign race. Therefore, her subordinates did not have an armed force that was directly loyal to her and would obey all his orders.

Although the knighthood that her father once ruled is nominally hers to rule, those guys now only follow orders in words, but their actual actions are greatly reduced. This is still a good thing. Some guys just follow orders. He moved his mouth, but his body didn't move.

This is the problem that a ruler with no foundation must face after hastily taking office. Because she does not have enough relatives and vassals, she cannot grasp the situation immediately and even faces the risk of being sidelined.

Although the centaur that Tiril gave her was wild and untamed, without even the most basic military qualities, they were able to eat their own food, and were large consumers of food reserves, but this was her only chance to take power.

Taiya could see very clearly that this dragon was particularly generous in delegating power to her, even going so far as to ask for and take whatever he wanted from her, but she was not stupid enough to think that she could really do whatever he wanted.

If she couldn't satisfy this dragon, she had no doubt that she would become the first knight in the rest of her life.

On the other hand, if she can take the opportunity to train these 30,000 wild centaurs and turn them into a legion of forbidden troops and an excellent cavalry unit, then from now on, her life situation will be very different, and she will have her own first an armed force.

With the deterrence of this power, she can not only use it to defend against foreign enemies, but also rely on it to wipe out all those in the country who nominally obey the status of the First Knight, but actually ignore or even disobey her. .

In order to achieve this, as the noble first knight, Taiya did not live in a luxurious palace in the city, but directly ate and lived with the centaurs who still retained some of their original habits.

It is difficult for centaurs to identify with aliens, but they can identify with strong people. Violence is the best way to communicate when there is a language and cognitive barrier.

Taiya, who is ranked in the third level of soul, is an absolute powerhouse for centaurs, because the centaur tribe has developed to this day, and there is still no soul.

The main reason is the existence of the Abyss Arena. Centaurs who have the potential to become souls will challenge the arena and accept the gift of true blood. Who will stay on the island if they can become a champion knight.

Therefore, facing the centaurs, Taya possesses absolute force, and coupled with the partner status given to her by God Riel, it is logical for her to let the 30,000 centaurs recognize her status as the commander-in-chief.

But this is only the first step. No commander can command tens of thousands of subordinates at the same time. Therefore, a suitable command system must be established.

but

"Your Highness, I'm afraid you don't have time to continue training centaurs."

The devil's figure appeared in the camp guarded by centaurs.

"The next time I see you, if I don't hear the guard's announcement, I will report your behavior to my husband."

Taiya didn't even raise her head. Although it was only a short period of half a month, she devoted herself wholeheartedly to the reorganization of 30,000 centaurs. As a result, her temperament also underwent earth-shaking changes, like a towering wonder. Dangerous peak.

"Your Highness, please forgive me for being unintentionally rude to you. It's just that I received an urgent message. A group of magic-patterned armed knights has entered a position less than a hundred miles away from Lambros. Your Majesty asked me to report to you. You ask if you can lead the centaurs and annihilate this armed knight."

"Magic Pattern Armed Knight?"

Taiya's eyes suddenly condensed. What she was wearing was a magic pattern weapon. She knew very well how much such an weapon could increase a knight's strength.

"Quantity? Strength?"

"The number is thirty-two, the average strength is at the gold level, and the leader and deputy have soul-level strength."

Monte is a treasure trove, and the information and intelligence he possesses is definitely the best in Suclite Continent.

"If this is all, then the centaurs can deal with them, but the casualties will probably be very high. I don't know if they can be dispatched..."

"Your Majesty asked me to convey to you that you don't have to worry about the damage to the centaurs. You only need to think about how to annihilate this cavalry at the minimum cost. No matter how much battle damage you have, he can make up for it and provide you with Receive all sick and wounded”

Monte smiled. He was very satisfied with his current identity, and he liked the environment he was in now. War, killing, conspiracy, betrayal and conquest.

"So, please put away unnecessary kindness and mercy. These are useless things that a qualified commander should not have."
