When the cavalry troops on both wings were repulsed...or wiped out, the mammoth war elephant troops lost control again.

Now the "counter-insurgency" troops, who were not known to be controlled by whom, chose to retreat.

It was a retreat rather than a defeat, because even though these troops left thousands of corpses in front and behind them, and all the mammoth war elephants in place, there was no chaos at all.

On the contrary, it was Milin's order prohibiting pursuit that aroused confusion among some soldiers, especially those veterans.

According to their experience, if you defeat the enemy without pursuing him, it means you have not defeated him.

In response to this, Milin said that if he wanted to chase, he could just chase him, but if he disappeared due to this kind of chase, he would have no pension.

Not sure whether they were more concerned about the pension that would be enough to buy a house in the imperial capital, or whether the enemy's retreat did not appear to be a retreat, so the veterans put away this idea and carefully cleaned up the battlefield.

I want to see if I can get some trophies from the battlefield... This can be regarded as a characteristic of soldiers in the style of the times.

Unfortunately, what disappointed them was that most of the trophies were not suitable as trophies.

Most of the enemies' weapons and armor were bonded with their bodies and turned into strange things.

There is no other way to deal with it except to burn it on fire.

"Faith, gunpowder and steel are the foundation of the empire. We have these things, although they are not much, but they are enough for now."

Standing by the fire, watching one contaminated thing after another being thrown into the specially dug fire pit, Milin suddenly said this.

"??" Galina, who was standing aside as the logistics director responsible for burning these things, raised her head and asked with a puzzled expression: "Commander, are you not going to develop military technology?"

"How could it be? I just suddenly remembered this sentence." Milin said.

"I'm overthinking it. I'm sorry, Commander." Galina said quickly after hearing Milin's answer.

"There's nothing to be sorry for. How do you feel about this battle?" Milin asked Galina with a smile.

"What do you think? I don't have any thoughts. I should say I'm used to it," said Galina.

As a war orphan, and working for a company called Griffin, which was actually a mercenary group, she was very adaptable to this kind of battlefield filled with artillery fire. On the contrary, she was not used to the purely cold weapon battlefield.

"What I'm asking is, what do you think of your artillery unit?" Milin asked.

"Uh..." Galina looked like she didn't know what to say.

"Too stupid?" Unfortunately, Galina didn't have the ability to hide her thoughts.

"Well, yes, it's too stupid, or too stiff." Suddenly remembering that Commander Milin had the ability to read minds, Galina no longer concealed her thoughts.

"Yeah, it's too stiff..." Milin knew what Galina meant.

If those hand-propelled cannons could be loaded with explosive shells, then the cavalry just now would not be able to rush into the car formation.

Even though the cavalrymen who rushed in faced four attacks including vehicle formations, shield walls, grenades, and waiting for work at the same time, they still relied on their thick enough health bars to cause nearly three-digit casualties among the Chinese army.

Similarly, if those Durahan cavalry can use long-range weapons instead of just slashing with knives, the casualties of the Guards cavalry charging with them can also be greatly reduced.

Although judging from the results, this battle was a great victory.

Two thousand versus six thousand, and there were almost a thousand Harlan's men on the opposite side who had been brought from another world. They captured nearly a thousand, and less than three hundred themselves were killed.

This is not a great victory, then most victories in history can be classified as defeats.

But it still gives Galina, as one of the commanders, a feeling that she has not done her full job.

"Yes, it is indeed too stiff." Milin turned his head and looked in another direction. There was also a fire in that direction, but it was used to burn the remains of the fallen soldiers.

In order to prevent the remains of these soldiers from being used by the other party due to being contaminated by the virtual realm, in addition to leaving props to prove their identities, they also have to be burned.

Unlike burning the contaminated loot and enemy corpses, just digging a big hole and throwing it in.

When the remains of these soldiers were burned, each man had a separate fire.

The bodies of the fallen soldiers were simply sorted, and in a peaceful and flat position, they were carried by several other soldiers to the pile of firewood that had been prepared early.

Standing aside, Arthur held up the imperial temperament in his hand, and with the guards and former veterans lined up around him, he saluted the imperial military salute to the remains of his comrades lying on the pile of firewood, and then lit it. Firewood, watching the flames return the remains of these victims to the earth.

The veterans who were not very happy before because they could not pursue the enemy to obtain more loot, in this scene, they all forgot what they were struggling with, and something emerged in their hearts that they had never felt in their former soldier careers.

The same was true for the sacrificed Dalahan cavalry. The only difference was that when the flames ignited, the Dalahan cavalry turned into wisps of golden light and scattered.

The entire area used for worship was given a holy tone.

"They are not afraid..." Milin said a little strangely.

What Milin is most worried about is that these soldiers recruited from the local people will be unable to hold their weapons steady due to fear when they see enemies who are basically inhuman after being contaminated by the virtual realm.

Unexpectedly, the performance of these soldiers was unexpectedly good. It seemed that the enemy soldiers who had been chopped dozens of times, had their limbs chopped off and were still struggling to get up were not much different from ordinary enemies.

"Because it can kill, so don't be afraid." Gelina guessed.

"Well, because it can kill, I'm not afraid, just like the source of all fear is insufficient firepower." Milin nodded and agreed with Galina's guess.

"Commander, how do you plan to develop military technology in this world? Step by step?" Galina brought the topic back.

Since the system soldiers are too rigid, these locals must be armed, whether it is a firecracker or a grenade, it is an emergency measure.

Because in essence, the use of these two weapons does not deviate from the original fighting habits of these soldiers. At most, they become explosive.

"Step by step is too slow." Milin said.

"Oh, shall we go directly to modern weapons?" After hearing Milin's words, Galina immediately looked very concerned.

After all, this is her profession, and the education and training she received is to provide logistical services to the army using modern weapons.

Even if Milin comes up with Wanguo brand weapons, Galina can ensure a stable supply of logistics. Distributing bullets of different calibers to soldiers is much more interesting than distributing shields and arrows.

She can also serve as a training instructor for modern weapons... Although after seeing Gray Wind's many incarnations, Galina felt that there was no need to become an instructor herself.

She is also aware of the science fiction setting of Gray Goo Storm, and she accepts it much faster than Ella. How can we say that in the world where Galina lives, technology is already at the level of intelligent robots roaming the floor.

"It's not just modernization." After Milin finished speaking, he paused and then asked Galina: "Have you been to the storage room?"

"Storage room? Where's the storage room?" Galina asked.

"Oh, it seems you haven't been there before. When I go back this time, I will take you to visit and show you something nice." Milin said.

"Oh oh" Galina immediately showed an expectant expression.
