Chapter 575 General Siegfried's Reclamation Plan
Grand Duke Neil Tuzer Hicks of the Sunset River made a big mistake. He regarded himself as equal to Claude, so he sent a special envoy to Claude and questioned in the letter. Claude's proposal hopes that Claude can guarantee his own safety. In the view of Grand Duke Luohe, his request was reasonable. But for Claude, the Grand Ducal of the Sunset River is a stupid, unrecognizable guy ...
In fact, this is just like the fact that a civil servant at the bottom level doubts the decision made by the superior leader and asks the leader to ensure that his personal interests in the execution of this decision process will not be harmed. Of course, if there is such a gimmick, there are usually no two episodes on television, and in reality it will soon be excluded and fired.
But now that he has changed to Colonel Bokal to contact the Archduke of the Sunset River, everything has become rounded. What Claude can't say Colonel Bokal can say that what Claude cannot do is that Colonel Bokal is capable. For example, Colonel Bokal can reveal to Grand Duke Rozhe without hesitation about Claude's strategic layout for the Hicks Kingdom after the withdrawal of the Autonomous Territory, and thus take many bribes and benefits from Grand Duke Luohe ... ..
After Claude let go, after a month, Colonel Bokal reported that everything was done, and Grand Duke Luohe was willing to implement it according to the arrangements of the Ministry of Military Intelligence. It was only that Colonel Bokal took a risk, and then went to the Grand Duke of the Sunset River to be a guest for some time and acted with him until the Grand Duke of the Sunset River entered the King King Saint-Hiprian City.
The plan of the Ministry of Military Intelligence is to rectify the men and women of the Grand Dukes of the Sunset River, and select an elite force of the army. In the name of sneak attack on Wang Jingsheng Shiprian City, they set off before the Storm Corps sweeps the six counties in the west and enters the already swept central area. Local county. Then he met a Hicks Homecoming Division, forming a state of confrontation on the battlefield. It stayed so for two to three months until the autonomous command zone evacuated. The archduke of the setting sun led the army to follow and recapture the city of Wang Jingsheng Shiprian.
The advantage of this plan is that Grand Duke Luohe can conceal his subordinates and allies. No one knows that he secretly colluded with the autonomous region, but instead dressed him as a hero who restored the kingdom of Hicks. Even if he did not have any armed conflict with the autonomous region, afterwards, it can also make people brain to make up for his fighting, and finally expelled the invaders and regained the glorious deeds of Wang Jingsheng Shiprian ...
Another great benefit is that Grand Duke of the Sunset River can use this plan to pack up his allies. After contacting Grand Duke of the Sunset River, Colonel Bokal, soon discovered that the 200,000 men and women under the Grand Duke of the Sunset River were very composed. complex. There were other local officials who came with defensive forces to join in the fun, and there were territories aristocrats who came with private armed forces to form alliances. In short, there were countless mountain combinations of various sizes. The Grand Duke of the Sunset River was only pushed by the large and small military leaders to the lord Throne only.
However, the Grand Duke of the Sunset River is not vegetarian. He also has a group of trusted people around him, which is the main reason why he subdues those allies. It was only after he entered the six counties in the west that he found that his situation was not so good. These allies clamored him every day for the construction site and supplies. So Crowder ’s letter became his life-saving straw, but he was a bit mistaken, and he regarded Claude as the commander of the enemy with the same status as his own. As a result, his butler hit a nail and met Crowd. German side was sent out.
Fortunately, Colonel Bokal subsequently found his special envoy butler, and the two parties re-connected. After learning about the situation from Colonel Bokal, Grand Duke Luohe found that he was wrongly estimating the situation. He made a mistake and changed it. He quickly provided a large amount of gold and silver to Colonel Bokal, and then conspired with the military intelligence department to set up the plan.
Next, the Grand Duke of the Sunset River showed his high spirits in front of his allies. Instead of an inch of territory in the six counties in the west, he would fairly distribute the land in the six counties in the west to his allies, large and small. His only requirement was to let his allies agree to let him go to their Majesty to select some elite men and horses to form a more powerful army, and then he went to Wang Jing Saint Hiprian to meet the invading enemies ...
To the allies of the Grand Duke of the Sunset River, the Grand Duke of the Sunset River is a natural sage. Don't want territory, and fight to invade the enemy to restore the Hicks Kingdom. Although they will lose some elite troops, the safety of the six western counties can be guaranteed with the Grand Duke of the Sunset River in front. Therefore, they agreed to the request of the Grand Duke of the setting sun, and offered to provide the forage for the expedition. They did not know that the Grand Duke of the setting sun had actually sold them a good price.
When the Grand Duke of the Sunset River led his army, Colonel Bokal brought a team of men and women to disguise themselves as a small caravan, and came to meet with the Grand Duke of the Sunset. In fact, Colonel Bokal took them hostage, but the external saying is that they are the spy investigation team sent by the Grand Duke of the Sunset River, and now they are returning to report the situation to the Grand Duke of the Sunset ...
Colonel Bokal led the way to Grand Dukes of the Sunset River, and the road was naturally unimpeded. His Majesty the Grand Dukes of the Sunset River also knew that they were the enemy to sneak attack on Wang Jingsheng's Hiprian City, so the journey was considered a secret. However, when they arrived at Lupuxi County, which is the closest to the Wangjing area, they suddenly found that Dayingzhai was blocking the road in front of them, and a large number of light riders on the left were searching for it. The situation was very urgent.
In desperation, in order to avoid the enemy's whereabouts, the Grand Duke of the setting sun could only lead the army to the mountain on the right, and found a very hidden valley for the army to settle down. Then Grand Duchess of the Sunset River sent secret agents to investigate, and naturally, what Colonel Bokal brought was also dispatched. It was only very few spies sent back, but Colonel Bokal's hand came back with injuries and gave the generals in the legion a precise piece of information.
It is said that the invading Storm Legion began its raid on the six counties in the west after the Grand Dukes of the Sunset River. The territory nobles and local officials who fell into the hands of the enemy quickly sold the whereabouts of the Grand Dukes of Sunset and his Legion. . Therefore, the enemy immediately strengthened the search for the Grand Dukes of the Sunset River, hoping to eliminate the army that could pose a threat to them. Many of the spies sent out fell into the hands of the enemy's reconnaissance cavalry, maybe the enemy would soon come to the mountains to sweep ...
After listening to the agent's return, some of the generals in the large account scolded the nobles and local officials of the captured territories for lacking national justice and betrayed the whereabouts of their army. Some panicked and suggested that the legion be transferred immediately. The Grand Duke of the Sunset Sun is in danger, and thinks that since it is so far, it is better to die hard. This is a mountainous area. The terrain is good for defense. If it is transferred to plain terrain, it will be worse. It will be destroyed by the enemy's light riding legion.
So Grand Dukes of the Setting Sun ordered the purchase of defense lines, set up camps, and fought with the enemy. Seven or eight days later, the enemy came, about the strength of a division. However, after the enemy found that the Grand Duke of the Setting Sun had set up the defensive front, he did not carry out an attack, but retreated a few miles. He also chose a dangerous place and began to arrange defensive camps and positions.
Upon seeing this, the generals of the Grand Duke of the Sunset Sun proposed to take the initiative to attack. The Grand Duke of the Sunset Sun followed the good and sent some troops to launch an attack, but was quickly repelled by the enemy's fierce firepower. The four generals who did not match the Grand Duke of the setting sun three died and were wounded. Most of the men also damaged and fled back. The generals under the sap of the Grand Dukes of the Setting Sun were awake, and no one suggested that the Grand Dukes of the Setting Sun initiated an attack. So the two sides began to confront each other, and occasionally sent small groups of horses to harass the enemy's camp ...
Claude was very busy. The ocean shipping fleet of the overseas autonomous region once again returned to Port Karakal, which had been leased by the autonomous region. This was mid-December 605 of the Holy Light calendar. At present, there are more than 870,000 Hicks soldiers who have gone to overseas autonomous territories as new immigrants, but now there are more than one million soldiers in Port Patkala who are working on expansion and reconstruction. Armies are recuperating.
When the six counties in the west were attacked by the Storm Legion, Claude estimated that it would also receive close to one million military dependents. In that year, the ten counties in the west rebelled with the most nobles. Therefore, after the rebellion was settled, the Hicks Kingdom recruited a large number of troops The young and strong formed an expeditionary force and sent to the mainland of Nubia to conduct a colonial war. As a result, the autonomous region was given a shot.
According to the procedure, after the remaining six local counties in the west were conquered by the Storm Corps, all officers and men of the local Hicks Returning Division could return to their hometown to find their families and relatives. Then they took them to Wangjing Saint-Hiprian for a month, eating and drinking in addition to medical treatment, and maintaining their bodies to cope with the sea journey in the near future for a month. Wait until your health is about the same before heading to Port Patkara. While working to earn a little money, it is also an exercise, while waiting for the arrival of the transport fleet to send them to overseas dominions to start a new happy life ...
If all goes well, the Hicks Raiders plan will be completed in three months, at which time Claude can return to the overseas dominion. All the supplies and personnel in Wangjing Saint-Hiprian will be transferred to the port of Patkara. There will be no more soldiers and soldiers in the autonomous region in Hicks Kingdom. It will not matter how the situation in Hicks Kingdom develops. What happened to Lord?
"Honest Marshal, we have built three Grand Fortresses at the entrance of this pass, which are expected to be completed in half a year. With these three Grand Fortresses, the security of the Manoli Plain can be guaranteed. According to the calculation of the staff's sand table drill, A bastion only needs the strength of a battalion to defend. In other words, the strength of a field group to defend this mountain pass has the bonus of the defense of these three bastions. Even if the enemy is a corps to attack, it cannot help our defense. Of course, it is impossible for an army to attack. After all, there is only one division at the mountain pass ... "
General Logistics Director General Siegfried introduced Claude proudly: "With these three fortresses, Port Karakla is at ease. Of course, we have also built defense facilities and military camps at Port Karakal. The base is also guarded by three ridges. According to the expansion plan of Port Patkala, we will form a defensive triangle in the general harbor terminal, the military camp base and the Yamaguchi Fortress. Each place only needs the guard of a regiment to guard. The forces of a division in Port Patkala have sufficient defensive forces. "
Claude nodded. The arrangement of garrison and garrison was personally presided over by him, and it was naturally clear. King Avitele I of the Kingdom of Breoit also hoped that a legion of the Thunder or Stormwind Corps would be stationed in Port Patkala in case the counter-attack of the Hicks Kingdom would be counted. Claude didn't care about the threat, he just felt that it was too wasteful for a legion to be stationed here. In fact, a division is stationed enough to persist in the reinforcements coming to the Beibu Gulf ...
"How are those working migrants arranged?" Claude asked.
General Siegfried replied: "We divided them into several batches, mainly based on the order in which they boarded the ship. For example, now that the transport fleet has arrived, the military members whose numbers begin with three are registered on the ship. Those who go to overseas dominions. They will settle their wages in the next few days and buy some goods to bring with them on the boat. In fact, we have told them long ago that there is no need to buy anything here, everything in the dominions is everything, And it's cheaper than here, so most families just buy something to eat and drink on board.
After the three-letter military immigrants leave, the identity cards of the military immigrants who work here will begin with four-letter characters. After the arrival of the new military immigrants from Wang Jing, the signs we gave them were the beginning of six characters and the beginning of seven characters. Although it is a part-time job, these three or four months or half a year's work on the site made these immigrant families very satisfied. Meals are free and wages are paid. Many military immigrants also want to change their status cards to work here for a few more months, but I told They would be better off going to the assigned field, which led them to autonomy. "
Claude Haha laughed: "It's hard for you, General Siegfried. In more than two months, we will be transferred from Wang Jingsheng Shiprian City, and there will be more than one million to two million. The resettlement of military members needs to be resettled. In addition, the construction of the storage area must also be accelerated. Wang Jing's reserves are large, and all of them need a large place and warehouse to move here. Especially for the warehouses where grain and grass are located, fire prevention preparations must be made, and And be more vigilant ... "
"I understand." General Siegfried replied, "St. Peter Hill, which is close to the quayside, has been planned as our scrawl base. There are seven large caves as grain warehouses. It's fine flour. If those seven caves are full of flour, it will be enough for two million people to eat for one and a half years. In addition to the three grain storage warehouse areas at the foot of the mountain and the mountainside, I don't think we need to worry about it in two years. Food consumption.
After the subsequent military immigration arrives, I plan to open up the wasteland outside the city of Port Patkala to the distant Brafiris Mountains, half for planting and half for grazing. Although we are not short of food, we lack fresh vegetables and fresh meat. Even if some people have been sent to the Kingdom of Breot for procurement, most of the indigenous people of Port Patkala went fishing, but it is not enough for our daily consumption.
Now that most of our manpower is used for urban expansion, there is no way to make production plans for these daily consumption of living materials, and we can only arrange them later. If this wasteland outside the city can be developed, then there will be no problem in maintaining a seaport city where 500,000 people live in the future. Anyway, we need at least another year to transport these military migrants to overseas dominions, which is still more than enough in time ... "
Claude looked up at the faint Brafiris Mountains in the distance, and asked, "Is this wasteland also within the range of Port Patkara we leased?"
General Siegfried nodded: "Actually, the area of the Manoli Plain is not included here. Avitre I was divided up according to the soil quality when dividing the border. The soil of the Manoli Plain is dark and bright, which is ideal for planting. The soil of this wasteland is soil red and mostly gravel and gravel, which requires a lot of manpower to clean up.
But most of us are manpower now. The gravel and gravel on the surface of this wasteland is actually the best paving material. After the gravel and gravel are cleaned up, we can build water irrigation facilities, dig trenches, and mix river mud and rotten soil with When the red soil of the wasteland is stirred, although it is not as good as the black soil of the Manoli Plain, it is enough to grow pasture and beans, and vegetables and fruits.
The beginning two or three years are a bit more troublesome and the harvest is a little bit less, but when the land of this wasteland is ripened, and the fat is accumulated, we believe that this wasteland will also become a granary and treasure house in the port of Patkara. Countless bumper harvests and joys ... "
Claude smiled: "General Siegfried, you seem to be good at farming ..."
General Siegfried was a little embarrassed: "When I was a kid, my father took our whole family to the wasteland. After spending more than ten years working on a deserted beach that was worse than this, he opened up a dozen acres of land, so I had the money to send me to military school. I will never forget the memory of picking up stones in the fields with a rattan basket when I was a kid ... "
Claude patted him on the shoulder: "If you have a good father, just do what you say. The least we need now is manpower. Even after these military immigrants have been sent away, we still have the captives. I They will leave those captives here and let them farm here to serve ... "
