Chapter 1061: Chapter 1,060, slow reinforcement
Translator: 549690339
Half an hour later, the reconnaissance team finally sent back the news of the enemy’s base camp.
The enemy’s base camp was also a small city called whale city.
Whale city was not big, and was similar to Kannima.
But because whale city was closer to the oasis and more convenient to travel, it was more prosperous than Kannima.
Whale city was the territory of the small warlord Morse, including some of the surrounding villages.
Morse was stronger than general Abu, and he was also the strongest of the small pirate warlords around.
Morse had a good relationship with the oasis. At least on the surface, he was very supportive and obedient to the orders of the oasis regime.
Therefore, in this war, Morse became the commander-in-chief of the Pirate
Alliance Army, somewhat like the Chief of the Alliance of the eighteen vassals.
Morse was in charge of commanding the attack on the south side. After that, he was also the one who represented the little pirates to fight for and distribute the profits.
Morse himself had nearly 10,000 troops, which was much stronger than the previous general Abu.
However, these small warlords had a problem with their troops, which was that they were too weak.
In their eyes, as long as they had the AKKA rifles, they could be considered a soldier.
If they were matched with a set of cheap military uniforms, they would be considered a regular army.
However, in reality, they did not have many elite troops.
For example, general Abu, although he also had two to three thousand troops, only a few hundred elite troops were truly capable of fighting.
Of course, the few thousand men in Abu’s hands had all become veterans.
After Abu obtained Yu Tian’s investment, especially after they occupied the maniza land, the morale of these veterans had soared, and their fighting spirit had also changed greatly.
Morse was different. The number of people under him that could be considered elite troops was only about a thousand.
The rest of them could barely be considered veterans. They had been with Morse for some time, but their combat strength was not worth mentioning.
The main factor that determined the combat strength of an army was their fighting spirit. In a place like Damadi, the soldiers mainly considered their income, future prospects, and benefits.
Morse was, after all, a small warlord. Although he was not weak, he was still a level lower than the Big Hippo.
The big hippopotamus had so many scattered troops, and Morse’s troops were even more garbage.
He could not give too many benefits to the lower-level soldiers, and he even gave them mediocre weapons and equipment.
If it were not for the oasis army watching from the side, Yu Tian would only need an armored charge to destroy this pirate alliance army.
There were currently more than 15,000 pirates in whale city, but it was unlikely that all of them would participate in the battle.
This was because Morse would definitely leave some men to guard his base camp, in case too many people were lost in the war and other small pirates joined forces to take over his territory.
Another reason was that the pirate army didn’t have enough vehicles.
War required a lot of materials and ammunition, and they needed to carry all kinds of heavy equipment, even things like cannons.
Most of the small pirates did not have many vehicles, such as the Faraday.
If they had money, they would mainly consider buying some pirate ships, which were their means of livelihood.
Vehicles did not mean much to them. Even if they bought a few military vehicles, they would not be able to change their weak state.
That was why Morse’s transportation pressure was very high.
His vehicles were mainly used to transport supplies, and secondly, he considered the transport personnel.
Just like the pirate army that was wiped out by the death mercenary group tonight, their fleet size wasn’t enough for an army of 1,000 people.
Therefore, their general way of marching was to transport supplies by vehicles, and some soldiers walked.
When they reached the base, they would put down the supplies, and only then would the soldiers who went out to act have enough vehicles to use.
According to their model, if whale city wanted to quickly send reinforcements, it was already considered pretty good to be able to pull out an army of five thousand people at one time.
After the reconnaissance team arrived near whale city, they finally discovered some movements of the enemy.
The enemy’s military camp was also outside whale city. The camp was filled with people and bright lights. It seemed that they were busy preparing for the expedition.
Yu Tian could not help but heave a sigh of relief. He thought that these pirates finally had some normal reactions, but this reaction did not seem to follow normal logic.
It was said that rescue was like putting out a fire. If the enemy wanted to send reinforcements, they should immediately send out troops when they received a distress signal, simplifying all the preparations to the extreme.
However, it had already been more than two hours since the end of the battle on Yu Tian’s side, and the enemies of whale city were still taking their time to make preparations before setting off. What did this mean?
By the time they reached the small fishing village, it was probably already dawn.
“Actually, I think that their main purpose is not to rescue, but to take advantage of this opportunity to fight against our main force.”
The Death God’s regiment commander voiced his opinion.
At this time, Yu Tian and the death God’s regiment commander already had enough time to discuss the situation on the battlefield.
This was because the Kanimar army that was responsible for cleaning up the battlefield had already rushed to the small fishing village.
The person in charge of this logistics job was allab. He was arrogantly commanding his subordinates to stuff the captives into the transport vehicles.
These captives could be sent back to do hard labor and help them build fortifications.
More sweat before the war, less blood during the war. The more fortifications were built, the safer it would be when the war started.
The death god mercenaries had already retreated from their positions and returned to the small village that they were stationed in previously.
As the reinforcements from whale city had not set off yet, Yu Tian and the death god mercenary group leader did not need to be too anxious to discuss the battle situation.
The death god captain said slowly, “As you said before, the enemy might suspect that we have sent our main force to participate in this battle. “After all, since they dare to take the initiative to attack the enemy and even surround and annihilate them, they should not have fewer troops than the enemy “Therefore, the enemy will feel that this is a good opportunity, a good opportunity to fight with us in the wild
“Therefore, the purpose of the enemy’s troops is not to rescue the crippled little pirates, but to fight with us.
“However, because they are worried that we will set up an ambush, their plan is to rush to the battlefield when the sky is just bright.”
Yu Tian sighed, “So, we still have time to sleep well?”
The commander of the death God squad laughed and said, “That’s right. It’s a good opportunity for us to recuperate. ”
Yu Tian asked curiously, “Aren’t they afraid that we’ll pack up and Go Home?”
The commander of the death god squad said, “It’s not that fast. It takes time to clean up the battlefield. Moreover, many things are only convenient to do when the sun rises.. “
