Aspirations for Nation and Beauty Chapter 1: Jin Ge’s first act
Compared to the progress of the Eighth Army in the Brook Fortress and the coastal area, the Fourth Army led by Muliger undoubtedly went much smoother in the southern part of the Principality of Suketu. , but the debate in Western Samoa on whether to send troops to defend the Principality of Soketu lasted for so long that it seriously affected the preparations for reinforcements in Western Samoa. Western Samoa's reinforcements can only be changed to reinforcements for Nan'an city-state, but this is already extremely unfavorable in terms of strategic situation.
The 4th Legion that controlled the Principality of Suketu quickly resolved the remaining problems. Advancing is inherently geographically advantageous, which is also the main reason why Suoketu hoped that Western Samoa and Nan'an could help him defend himself, because only by defending Suoketu can he defend Nan'an, and only by defending Nan'an can he defend Western Samoa, but there are disputes on the political level It is not based on military needs. This is a truth that has been verified many times.
The democratic nature of the political system of the Western Samoa City Republic has been proven once again. Although the Western Samoa military has repeatedly requested to send troops to assist the defense of the Principality of Soktu as soon as possible, before the city council has not obtained the approval of two-thirds of the members, the Before such a big event as sending troops abroad, the city governor has no right to make such a decision beyond his authority, and the supervisors of the Republic's Supervisory Council will never tolerate unconstitutional behavior. This decision was finally made after the city governor submitted it to the city council for a vote for the third time before it was passed with a narrow majority. In terms of foreign wars, the members of the Western Samoa City Republic are as cautious and conservative as those of other countries. The city governor is almost a member of parliament, and whether the resolution to send troops can be passed is still in suspense.
But such efficiency has deeply damaged the agreement reached in Sikkim, Nan'an and Western Samoa. It was precisely because of the serious delay of the Western Samoa side that the imperial army was able to easily take Suoketu in one fell swoop, occupying a favorable terrain, and the northern part of the Nan'an city-state was almost an undefended area for Suoketu. When the Tang army invaded Suoketu, the Nan'an army hurriedly mobilized troops from the south and west in an attempt to establish a line of defense in the north. At the same time, the Western Samoan Army is required to enter the northern part of the Nan'an city-state in the shortest possible time, and jointly build a solid defense line in the north of the Nan'an city-state to ensure the safety of the Nan'an city-state.
Mulig walked on the path with a complex expression, and his deputy Wen Na was walking alongside him. He glanced at Wen Na, who was still dazed and ignorant, and couldn't help sighing in his heart. He wasn't unwilling to accept the new mission, but for him to let go of such an army that had been with him for so long, no matter from which angle he They were all a bit reluctant, but the order of the Privy Council had already come down. He must implement it himself, and he also knows that this is probably not Ling Tianfang's intention but His Majesty's intention. Wen Na has already completed the inspection and passed the test of loyalty. With his ability, he should have been promoted to the head of the army long ago. , I have actually delayed the other party for two years, and now I give the other party such a chance, deep in Mulige's heart, it does not mean that there is no sense of relaxation.
However, the task entrusted to him was a bit too embarrassing. The commander of the newly formed Eleventh Army did not allow himself to transfer officers from the Fourth Army. Isn't this tossing people with peace of mind? What kind of things are these eleven legions? The remnants of the Northern Army and City Guards of the Tanghe Empire have been streamlined and reorganized. Although they are all veterans, for Mulig, he would rather choose an army composed entirely of new recruits than these veterans. Oil seeds.
But it seems that I can't help myself. There is absolutely no reason to change the order of the Privy Council, and I can only obey it. Then again, although veterans have their bad roots, these guys have undergone formal training after all. And many of them are the elite of the Northern Army and the City Guard Army, but they were implicated because of the transposition of the country. If they can successfully win their respect and trust, and can perfectly twist these guys into a ball, this army will not only It can form combat power in a very short period of time, and it will have a combat power that is not lost to any legion in the empire.
His Majesty the Emperor may have given this hot potato to himself only because of this, and let such a sharp sword that has the hope of recasting success become a mess of sand, or even become a disaster in the place where it was left. It can be said that he chose himself, which not only shows that His Majesty the Emperor values and trusts him, but also shows the arduousness of this task. If he wants to win the hearts of these soldiers, he will have to work hard.
Wen Na looked suspiciously at this silent boss, did he ask himself out just to take a walk in this wilderness? It doesn't seem like much, it seems that the other party has something on his mind. After the other party received the letter from the Privy Council of the Empire, the other party seemed to be restless. He still hasn't informed himself of the contents of the letter. This has never happened before. Wen Na didn't doubt the character of his boss. After touching him for so long, from being a little unconvinced at the beginning, to becoming more and more harmonious, to the present mutual understanding, the cooperation between the two is like water and milk, and they have an unusual tacit understanding. But Wen Na felt that the other party must have some thorny issues that he hadn't considered, so he never informed himself.
"Brother Wenna, the intelligence has confirmed that 30,000 people from Kuluk Fortress have already left the customs and are coming here, and another 20,000 city defense troops are marching northward in the starry night. It is estimated that the enemy will deploy defenses around the Lunda Plateau. , the enemy probably intends to abandon the northern mountains and choose the area at the end of the mountains to build a defensive circle, which will be safer, and they can also wait for the arrival of reinforcements from Western Samoa and Sikkim.”
It seemed that he realized that his emotions had also affected the colleague next to him. Mulig collected his feelings and returned to the main topic. He needed to understand the thoughts of his colleague before deciding whether he would wait for the end of this war. The Privy Council did not clarify this point in the order whether to hand over the post of the commander of the Fourth Army later or now, but let him choose the right time to hand over, which made Mulig a little uncertain.
"Well, the enemy is a bit stretched, and the reinforcements from Western Samoa are slower than we thought. It seems that their domestic opinions on the war are not unified, and the people of Sikkim seem to pay lip service. As long as their interests are not absolutely consistent, it will be difficult for them to form a joint force, or it will be difficult for them to exert their maximum effectiveness, and in war, this is often fatal." Wen Na also agreed with his boss, "Nan'an people were originally It is possible to advance northward to a more suitable location for defense, but the failure of the Western Samoans has turned the Suoketu Principality into our back garden. Now that they have lost the opportunity, they can only abandon the northern mountains. Now their only The idea is to rely on the coalition forces of Western Samoa and Sikkim to block us on the Lunda Plateau.”
"Block us? How long can they last this kind of passive defense?" With a slight sneer, Mulig shook his head, "If it wasn't for the Privy Council's strict prohibition on westward penetration, those undefended areas in the west would only I'm afraid it has already entered the territory of the empire, what a pity, we can only watch such an opportunity."
"Hehe, the commander of the legion has too much appetite. The Western Peninsula Alliance is now confronting the Pasha people. It is said that it is the final stage of the negotiation. Now we put a knife in their back. Wouldn't it be cheap Pasha? Sand people? The West Peninsula Alliance will vent their anger on us." Seeing that the other party seemed to be in a better mood, Wen Na also joked.
"Joke! Why is the Western Peninsula Alliance challenging us? Is it relying on the Kingdom of West Orland or the Kingdom of Jutland? The battle with the Pasha has dragged them to exhaustion. Even if the Western Peninsula Alliance wants to fight, We also have to weigh whether the two Austrian aid behind them are willing or not. I don't believe that the Kingdom of West Orland and the Kingdom of Jutland are really willing to go to war for the Western Peninsula Alliance. It is also necessary to go to war with the Pasha people. Myself~IndoMTL.com~ It is related to their interests, the Pasha people are too powerful to pose a huge threat to them, and our Tang Dynasty seems to be too far away from them, right?" Mulig shook his head.
"But the weakening of the Western Peninsula Alliance is also not in the interests of the Kingdom of West Orland and the Kingdom of Jutland, so they will send troops. We are so aggressive, and it will inevitably cause them to worry." Winner proposed and discussed , "We haven't taken Nan'an and Western Samoa yet, making enemies on all sides, that can only make these guys form an anti-Tang alliance."
"Hehe, yes, so I'm just talking, before we solve Nan'an and Western Samoa, we can only watch and drool, and Sikkim, this is our real thorn in the side, if we don't solve it It, any of our actions in the Central Continent will be restricted." Mulige picked up a piece of dry soil and held it in his hand, crushing it heavily into fine powder, said in a deep voice.
"Well, Sikkim is currently the most influential force in this region. When the empire enters this region, it must completely eradicate this force. It's just that our naval power is too far apart now. It will take time to completely solve it. That's all right." Winner nodded.
"Well, what should be resolved will be resolved sooner or later, and no one can avoid it." Mulige said something meaningful, "Brother Wenna, what do you think we should do next?" The first chapter of Liuhe, the first move of Jin Ge, the forty-eighth section, Yi general
