Chapter 1619 The Village is Raising a Heavy Soldier
The Black Emperor, the Beast Emperor, the Demon Emperor, the War Emperor, and the Weird Emperor are the five leaders under the Lord, distributed in the east, south, west, north and center of the grassland.
The Black Emperor is in the south, the Beast Emperor is in the north, the Demon Emperor is in the east, the War Emperor is in the west, and the Weird Emperor is in the central grassland. They take care of various affairs for the Overlord and control hundreds of protectors and a legion of thousands of plunderers.
"Lord of the Sun, the Black Emperor has a total of 68 guardians under his command. 50 of them are stationed in Black Emperor City, and the remaining 18 guard the southern region for him. I am one of them..."
Jushi introduced the basic situation here to Lei Zhen, including the territory, strength, military strength, etc. of each leader, and especially focused on introducing his former boss.
"Okay, I understand." Lei Zhen nodded.
It's basically the same as a fiefdom, except for the Ghost Emperor.
If we calculate based on the fact that one guardian has dozens of pillagers under his command, each pillager has dozens of berserkers under his command, and the berserkers have countless wanderers under their command, the military force is quite terrifying.
However, there is a gap between theory and implementation, much like whether an army is fully staffed.
The Stone has thousands of soldiers, plus 15 other guardians with their own territories, totaling nearly 20,000 soldiers, in addition to the troops of the Black Emperor City.
Judging from Lei Zhen's military expertise, the total strength of the Black Emperor is approximately 30,000.
If this is taken as the average value, the four emperors in the southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest should control about 150,000 troops; if the grassland ruler wants to form a containment and control force, he must have at least 50,000 troops.
That is to say, the total military strength in the Exile Land is about 200,000. This number is already terrifying, especially in the Exile Land.
It is conceivable how many genetically programmed people the Sanctuary has created. If its failure rate remains at 10%, it means that 2 million people have been created!
This number made Lei Zhen shudder. Such a small place actually created millions of people, and all of them were genetically organized combatants, not including the even larger logistics supply personnel.
Yes, these 2 million are all combatants, and can be compared with wanderers.
"Enzhu, how many people are there in the village?" Lei Zhen turned around and asked.
"At most there are only tens of thousands of people, you saw it," Eun-joo replied.
Yes, Lei Zhen saw it.
Just a few small cities, full of people from all kinds of positions.
The Steam City is almost entirely populated by workers, the Modern City is almost entirely populated by office workers, and the Science and Technology City is almost entirely populated by scientific researchers and the like. Based on what we have seen, we can roughly estimate that there are more than 100,000 people, and no more than 200,000 at most.
"How many years ago did the Land of Exile appear?" Lei Zhen asked again.
"It seemed to appear suddenly..." Eun-joo asked doubtfully, "If you ask me when exactly it appeared, I really don't know."
"It appeared sixty years ago!" Yun Yi said, "But it wasn't called the Land of Exile before. It only became the Land of Exile after the Lord appeared."
“Were there wanderers sixty years ago?”
"I think so, right? Anyway, many people who made mistakes were expelled here..."
Lei Zhen frowned and his brain quickly calculated.
He made an estimate based on the ratio of people to support the supply of a large-scale army to calculate how many combatants there were in the village. This was a rough estimate.
"Lao Lei, what are you doing?" Yun Yi asked.
"I'm calculating how many combatants there are in the village. Once I roughly figure out the number, I'll know a lot of things." Lei Zhen replied.
"Let me tell you, the village's law enforcement team, patrol team, etc., has about a thousand people. Since there will be no vicious incidents in the village, these people are just there to maintain order." Yun Yi said with a smile.
"Are wanderers considered combatants?" Lei Zhen asked back.
"this……"
"Eun-joo, what is the probability of failure of genetic programming?"
"It should be controlled at around 10%."
"Okay, the wanderers are all failures, right? Multiply their number by 10 to find out how many combatants are in the village..."
Yun Yi and En Zhu were stunned. They had never thought about this question.
"The cost of war varies in different periods. In ancient times, it took three farmers to transport food for one soldier. That means an army of 100,000 would require 300,000 farmers to transport food and fodder."
"But with the development of technology, the loss has decreased. The village has about a hundred thousand people, and both industry and technology are state-of-the-art. It has only one purpose, and that is to support the army!"
The calculation method is different in different time periods. As far as the village's technology and industry are concerned, it is possible for more than 100,000 people to support one or two million combatants.
Then this is a serious problem. What does the Sanctuary want to do by raising so many warriors?
Where are these warriors hiding?
Lei Zhen never thought that the Sanctuary was a good thing. Like the prophets, they had their own clear purpose and did not exist for the peaceful development of mankind.
If that is the case, then a saint has truly been born.
"Old Lei, are you thinking too much?" Yun Yi said.
"It's not that I think too much, but I'm aware of the cost of war." Lei Zhen thought for a moment and said, "I didn't pay attention to it at first, but as I saw more and more wanderers, I naturally thought about it."
The exiled lands are all products of failure, and the successful ones naturally stay in the village.
Even if the probability of failure reaches 50%, the village will still have hundreds of thousands of combatants, which is definitely inconsistent with the sanctuary that claims to observe humans.
"Lord of the Sun, the territory ahead is that of the White Wolf." The boulder pointed ahead.
"How many people are there?" Lei Zhen asked.
"About the same size as me," replied the Rock.
“Eat it!”
"yes!"
“…”
Soon, hundreds of people emerged from the valley ahead, led by a burly man in his thirties, holding a battle axe in his hand.
"White Wolf, the Lord of the Sun is here, kneel down and surrender!" the boulder shouted.
"Lord of the Sun? Hahaha... Rock, everyone says that your brain doesn't work well, but now I finally realize it." White Wolf laughed.
"Looking for death! Kill him!"
Without saying a word, Jushi led his men forward with a mace in hand.
The two groups collided in the most brutal way and started a bloody massacre.
Lei Zhen strode forward with a knife in hand, aiming directly at the white wolf.
"drink--"
The white wolf chopped down with an axe.
"laugh!"
The knife flashed but arrived first, and then the head fell to the ground.
Flash sale!
As a superior, he can instantly kill the weaker ones by reducing their dimensionality.
"Those who follow me will prosper, those who oppose me will perish!"
Lei Zhen lifted up the white wolf's head, and his aura swept away like a tsunami.
The mutual slaughter stopped.
"Lord of the Sun!"
"Lord of the Sun!"
“…”
Everyone prostrated themselves on the ground to express their submission to the strongest.
After recruiting Bai Lang's men, the team increased rapidly from over a thousand people to nearly two thousand people, and they continued to march towards the grassland in a mighty force, following Lei Zhen.
