In the following days, the NPC army launched attacks every day, but they were defeated every time.
Lu Ping was happy to have a leisurely time. He watched the battle on the city wall leisurely every day as if nothing had happened.
Of course, Lu Ping did not forget to keep an eye on the situation of Tang Qi and the others.
Defending a city is much easier than attacking it, especially when the enemy's military strength is not that great.
This is indeed the case. As expected, Tang Qi and his companions are as idle as Lu Ping and have nothing to do.
Especially Lu Yi, if Lu Ping hadn't stopped her, she would have rushed out of the city long ago.
From the information Lu Ping has, all the lords have performed well since the siege began.
The loss is not very large, only about one percent.
But as time went on, the number of losses began to increase.
Xishan, military command post.
At this moment, Chen Ping and other generals were paying close attention to the electronic screen.
The screen displays the real-time battle situation of the Qing Kingdom lords.
Dozens of staff officers were constantly busy, analyzing the situation for each lord.
"Old Deer, judging from the current situation, the first stage shouldn't be a big problem."
Chen Ping said to the deputy chief Lu Ming beside him.
"Well, the loss is less than 0.5 percent, which is not bad."
"However, the situation next door is not so ideal. They just reported that the loss rate has reached 2 percent."
As Lu Ming spoke, he looked towards another command hall across the street.
Over there is the command hall of the Superpower Committee.
"These guys refused to give up power until they died. They deserved their misfortune."
Hearing this, Chen Ping snorted coldly.
"Haha, after all, it's because they are afraid that we will seize power." Lu Ming said lightly.
"The losses are so great in just the first phase. I want to see how they explain it when the second phase comes." Chen Ping sneered.
"Haha, you're right." Lu Ming nodded slightly.
The two then continued to observe the battle situation while issuing various orders.
On the other hand, a group of committee members headed by Wang Changhao, Minister of Internal Affairs of Qinghai Province, were also busy.
At this moment, they were all paying close attention to the battle situation.
"Minister, our casualty rate has risen to 2.5 percent," a staff officer reported.
"What!" Wang Changhao was shocked. "Wasn't the previous prediction a maximum of 2%?"
"Minister, it now seems that the previous estimate was wrong and the situation has exceeded our expectations," said the staff officer.
"Hmph..." Minister Wang snorted coldly.
As a representative of the government, Wang Changhao has always been at odds with the military.
At the beginning of the mission, the higher-ups intended to have the military take unified command and coordination, but Wang Changhao firmly disagreed.
In Wang Changhao's view, completing the first phase of the mission is a piece of cake and does not require military intervention.
What's the result?
The loss rate has now reached 2.5 percent, far exceeding the forecast of 2 percent.
Now, Wang Changhao couldn't sit still anymore.
If this continues, the loss rate will definitely increase. How will he explain this to his superiors?
Thinking of this, Wang Changhao decided to ask the military for help.
Immediately, Wang Changhao went to the military command hall to find Chen Ping.
"Chief Chen, we need military support." Wang Changhao said straight to the point.
"Minister Wang, are you joking?"
"You want our support at this time? Do you think that's possible?" Chen Ping sneered.
"General Chen, our casualty rate has exceeded 20%. If this continues, the consequences will be disastrous."
"Chief Chen, you must help with this matter. After all, those who died are all from Qing." Chief Wang explained.
"Humph, so what? Didn't you say before that we should each do our own thing and have nothing to do with each other?"
"Now that the situation is bad, you remember to ask us for support?" Chen Ping sneered.
"You..." Wang Changhao's face changed.
"Okay, stop talking."
"Minister Wang, as a fellow Qing national, I certainly can't just stand by and watch. However, I can only support you with a maximum of three million troops. Otherwise, all our plans and arrangements will be disrupted, and we will be the ones who suffer heavy losses."
Chen Ping said in a cold tone.
If Chen Ping had the energy to spare, he would not just stand by and watch someone die. Even if he was angry, he would still support him.
"Okay, three million is three million."
Seeing this, Wang Changhao nodded.
It’s better to have something than nothing, and he has no choice at this time.
Seeing this, Chen Ping didn't waste any words and directly ordered the allocation of three million reinforcements.
"Old Chen, you shouldn't pity these guys."
After Wang Changhao left, Lu Ming said angrily.
"I'm not pitying him, but considering the overall situation."
"We can't just watch more of our compatriots die." Chen Ping sighed.
"Old Chen, I understand what you mean, but have you ever thought that now that you have opened this loophole, will they come to us for support again in the second phase?" Lu Ming asked.
"Open your mouth again? Humph, don't even think about it."
Chen Ping was stunned for a moment, then said.
"Old Chen, don't be so decisive. Everyone knows that there are huge rewards in the second stage. Just look at their faces and you can tell they will never give up." Lu Ming smiled bitterly when he heard this.
"Don't give up? If you don't give up, then let them struggle on their own. I can't support them anyway."
Chen Ping sneered.
"Okay, as long as you know what's going on."
Hearing this, Lu Ming didn't say anything more.
........
"Minister, how should these three million reinforcements be distributed?"
