Chapter 452: 　The magic of gold coins

Back in the study, Allen unfolded the map outside the sunset city. Here is a relatively flat landform, without forests or hills, just as Tomen said, there is no risk. This terrain of battlefield is undoubtedly beneficial to the attacker. Coupled with the low walls of the sunset city, there is no heavy firepower to provide defense. There is no need to dispatch elite divisions, even the coalition forces of the two lords of Olu can break into the city forcibly.
If Allen hadn't kept declining their numbers and morale in the previous week, it would probably become a reality tomorrow.
Sir Thomas pushed the door in, took a look at the people in the room, and said to Allen: "My lord, the number of our soldiers is calculated. Our city's own army plus your soldiers, there are 487 people. If you count If you recruit recruits and coolie slaves, you can barely make up an army of about a thousand people. It's just such an army..."
Allen smiled and continued for him: "Such an army has no combat power-excellent-excellent-small-say-update-new-fastest-fast -, I know this very well. But I also said before, slaves are just to make up Make up the number."
"Make up the number." Tomen shook his head and said, "I really don't see any effect this way."
"Of course not in the usual, but now, it's a little different." Allen sold a pass and didn't continue talking about this. He flicked the map with his fingers, and said: "It is true that the armies of the two knights still have an advantage in overall numbers. However, they are not invulnerable. The most obvious point is that they have two commanders. In addition, the two knights are also present together. With such an army, I can hardly imagine that the soldiers can hear clearly and only commands."
Tomen suddenly realized that the lack of unified command was indeed a serious defect of the enemy coalition forces.
"Of course, if the battle situation is beneficial to them, this defect is not so fatal. But if the battle situation is unfavorable and the situation is urgent, when the commander needs to respond quickly to make a decision, this defect will be infinitely magnified. Then, An order of two commanders disagrees, or it can be decided by notifying the jazz. In this way, for a battlefield where the timing is fleeting, such a command system will undoubtedly accelerate the defeat of the army."
Allen raised his head and smiled brightly: "And we just want to create such a situation for them."
He said to Tomen again: "Go and gather all the soldiers. Before fighting, you must first boost their morale."
Mobilization before the war was an ordinary thing, and he nodded to do it. When he walked to the door, Allen said suddenly: "Baron Tomen, if I lose this time, Sunset City will return to the Viscount rule; if I win, I will leave soon. So you see, As long as you do nothing, you will still be the lord of Sunset City in the future. I will not force you to completely betray Daniel, but you don't want to hold me back."
"Otherwise, you know exactly what will happen."
Torman turned back quickly: "I know, Sir Allen."
Allen nodded, and the Baron walked out of the study. His face is as usual, but his back is already wet. Tomen called the butler, and after hesitating for a moment, he said: "Go and call Leich back and tell him that you don't have to do that."
The butler nodded and went down quickly.
The barracks in Sunset City were brightly lit, and all the soldiers, including the slaves transferred from Xiayun Valley, were all concentrated on the training ground. Nearly a thousand people crowded the training ground so densely that there was almost no gap in sight. Most people have blank faces written on their faces, especially slaves, they are even more listless. When recruiting them, Tomen announced the rules of rewards to them, but they were not real soldiers after all, and the reputation of the noble master had never been very good in their eyes.
Killing an enemy soldier can get a gold coin, which is simply a good thing to fall from the sky, but whether the noble master will honor it is another matter.
A temporary stand was built on the training ground, only less than half a meter above the ground. After everyone gathered, some people stepped onto the stage not long after. One of the young people with silver hair stepped forward. He glanced at the people underneath and said lightly: "I am Ellen, this is your lord. In the past week, I have been with a group of brave warriors and bauhinia, The two armies of Dawn Castle were circling in the wild. After paying a high price, we also successfully weakened the enemy's military strength. However, some warriors were forever sleeping on the ground, and only the strongest and bravest fighters could return. "
"Now, it's time for me to fulfill my promises. Their efforts are rewarded, and my rewards are the most direct. Now, the military merit statistics on the battlefield have been released. Then, let us see what rewards these warriors can get. ."
Veterans, recruits, and slaves began to focus on the high platform. Everyone pricked their ears, wanting to see how Alan's promise was fulfilled. Belmode handed a page of military merit statistics to Allen. Allen took a look and said loudly: "Laurie, kill 17 enemies and get 17 gold coins! Please come on stage to receive your reward."
A man exclaimed excitedly: "It's me, it's me!"
He pushed away from the crowd and ran to the stage, with a glowing face leading 17 gold coins in Kira's hand. He also counted carefully, and only after confirming that there were a lot of them, he walked off the stage with a smile on his face.
"Next is Matex, kill 22 enemies and get 22 gold coins!"
From Allen's mouth, give out the names one by one, as well as the amount of gold coins earned by these people. Listening to those sweet numbers, people in the audience are breathing harder and heavier, and their eyes are getting hotter. When Allen reported the most prominent man in the battle, that was an officer who originally belonged to Sunset City. In the past week, as many as 100 people died in his hands!
And for killing so many enemies, he was rewarded as high as one thousand gold coins. Allen used practical actions to fulfill his previous high reward for killing a hundred people and earning a thousand gold coins. When the officer stepped down with a heavy money bag, he was so happy from ear to ear. And the reward of these thousand gold coins was also exchanged for the inhalation of other people in the audience. If their eyes were only fierce before, then now these pairs of eyes that were shining red by gold coins have revealed a real murderous aura.
In Ellen's hands, he was rewarded with his own soldiers, as well as those from the sunset city army system. Allen was fair and just, did not favor his soldiers, and quickly won the soldiers' trust. And the most direct reward of gold coins has boosted their morale to the extreme.
After sending out all the rewards, Allen raised the military merit statement in his hand and said: "Tomorrow, there will be fierce battle. And I hope that after the battle, there will be your names on this form!"
Amidst the waves of cries, Allen left the barracks. On the way back to the City Lord’s Mansion, Tomen said sincerely: "I never thought that I could motivate soldiers in this direction."
"This is not a new thing, it's just that I have given out more rewards and the exchange rate has been greater."
Tomen repeatedly said yes, and Allen smiled slightly. What he didn't say was that monetary incentives were not enough, a truly invincible lion. Military quality, loyalty, sophisticated equipment, etc. are indispensable. Under these factors, material incentives are necessary, but material alone is far from enough.
The night is very short. For Allen, there are too many things to arrange for a night, and the night is over in a blink of an eye; the night is very long, at least for the two Sirs, Raffles and Oulu. No sleepiness, so this night was extremely long.
Whether it is short or long, the nightclub passes. So after dawn, the sound of a horn sounded outside the sunset city, and the coalition of the two jazzes finally marched towards the sunset city. Standing on the city wall, Alan could see that the opposite army was erecting different flags. Sure enough, in this important battle of the siege, the two knights still did not let the army carry out unified dispatch.
As a result, although the armies of both sides advance together, they are very likely to fight separately.
Despite pushing toward the city, the morale of the opponent's army was unexpectedly low, and even Tomen, a person who didn't know anything about fighting in opposition, could tell. As far as the attacking side is concerned, an army with high morale must be murderous. However, the army on the opposite side was like a lingering haze, and the soldiers were depressed and lacking in fighting spirit.
Tomen couldn't help taking a sneak peek at Allen. He couldn't think of what this young man did to that army that would blow their morale to this level.
Even Torman saw that the morale of the army was low, and how the two Lords Oulu and Raffles couldn't tell. But they couldn't change anything. After all, who had harassed Allen in the past few days so that he couldn't sleep well, and morale would be low. In order to motivate the soldiers, Oulu winked at Raffles, who said loudly: "Everyone will cheer me up~EbookFREE.me~ Look, the sunset city is right in front of my eyes. Their strength It’s no more than five hundred at most, not even half of ours. For us, this battle is a complete win."
"And I declare that for every ten enemies killed, you will get a gold coin! Yes, it is a gold coin!"
Raffles repeated it loudly twice before it was considered a little improvement, and the soldier's eyes brightened. But when they began to enter the battlefield, they saw the gates of Sunset City open, which surprised the commanders of the two armies. They had suffered enough from Allen, and now they did not dare to despise each other, so at the same time they made a gesture to suspend the march, and the army stopped.
In the opposite city gate, groups of soldiers began to gush out. The soldiers rushing out of the city gate quickly entered the previously dug trenches, searching for battle positions. When seeing more and more enemy soldiers, the faces of the commanders and the jazz became hard to look at. Even if they didn't count them, they knew that there were far more than five hundred people!
When all the troops in Sunset City entered the battle positions and positions, the morale of the Jazz's coalition forces was hit again. The overwhelming group of people looked at it and knew that it was an army no less than the one already. More importantly, the opposing enemy is murderous, like a lion that locks its prey! r1058
