Heart of Empire Chapter 480: Sindelaire’s War Potential
It seems that Dane is now in full swing, especially the military power is very strong, and even an old country like the Duchy of Florence feels a little afraid.
But in fact, if these forces are used in a concentrated manner, they are of course a powerful force. But if it is scattered throughout the kingdom, it will be a bit stretched.
This is the case when there are not many places to be stationed in the Kingdom of Schindler.
Central County, Tianshuizhou County, Oasis County, and Cinderella County, these four areas do not need a lot of main army to garrison, the local garrison army and the established militia organization should be enough. The southern border is Dane's base camp, and all his main forces are stationed here. As for Beast Blood Fort and Ice Cave City, Delin had to lead his Fifth Legion to garrison them.
The Fifth Legion now only has 10,000 people, which is actually not enough. That is to say, the orcs haven't calmed down for the time being, and when the danger to the east gradually increases, the pressure on the Fifth Legion will also increase accordingly, and increasing troops is a must.
This presents Dane with a new challenge.
…
After the problems of Beast Blood Fort and Ice Cave City were resolved, Dane handed over the army to the commanders of the legions, and asked them to bring the troops back to the southern border as soon as possible. As for himself, he dragged Patience and used the teleportation technique to return directly to White Wolf Castle. Then, Chapple was called together again.
They now need to formulate a credible military integration plan.
The three of them, together with a dozen or so senior staff members, discussed in the conference hall for three days before they finally came up with the preliminary plan.
First, determine the structure of the kingdom's main army.
There will be five legions directly under the kingdom, which will be divided into two echelons.
The first echelon is the Cormyr Elf Legion and the White Wolf Legion. These two main forces are not moving.
Moreover, according to the planned establishment, the configuration of the two main armies requires eight wings, and the total strength should be 24,000.
In terms of the source and configuration of arms, there is no need to say more about the Cormyr Army. In Dane's plan, the White Wolf Legion should be composed purely of units produced by the human system.
These two legions will be the most important and elite fighting forces in Dane's hands. The fighters, all composed of system-produced arms, will be elite enough to even outnumber ten.
However, they are elite, but the number is not enough.
The three bases of White Wolf Fort, Auriana, and Shadouole are of course not low-level now, and the speed of training arms has been improving. However, compared with Dane's huge demand for troops, they are still not enough. Moreover, the price of the system arms is relatively high.
These two factors restrict the speed of the development of the system's arms. However, in the country of Schindler at present, Dane needs a considerable force to maintain his rule, so he has to use other fighters.
This is the second echelon, and it is also the three legions directly under the kingdom-the king's guards, the fourth legion, and the fifth legion.
According to Dane's plan, the King's Guards are the best local troops. Dane doesn't intend to move his staffing for this force, at least not for the time being. The strength of this legion is maintained at ten wings, and the size of 15,000 people is almost the same.
The Fifth Legion is quite special. This army was appointed to station in the east and has a heavy defense pressure. Dane is going to mobilize manpower from other legions. The system troops are mixed with local troops. If the scale can reach about 20,000 people in the plan, it will be fine.
The Fourth Legion is a transitional legion. The overall strength of this legion is the weakest, but the number is the largest. The current Fourth Army has a total of 16,000 people.
Different from the other legions, the other four legions seem to have a lot of numbers, but they are all under planning now, and it will take one to two years, or even longer, to complete the establishment. As for the Fourth Legion, the current number and scale are already very large, but in the future, the number of this legion will be gradually reduced.
Dyne decided that part of the soldiers missing from the White Wolf, the King's Guard, and the Fifth Army had to be supplemented by drawing blood from the Fourth Army. After the soldiers of the Fourth Legion have undergone training at the system base, they will be added to the three legions in a certain proportion.
Of course, the establishment of the Fourth Legion itself will not be revoked either. In the future, after the formation of the other four legions is completed, the fourth legion will also become a force composed of all systematic arms, and the total strength will reach eight regiments with 12,000 people. level.
But this unit will also be the latest to complete the establishment.
Under this plan ~IndoMTL.com~ the total strength of Dyne's five main armies will reach more than 70,000.
And under the legions directly under the five kingdoms, there will be a huge defense legion system.
The power of the garrison army will be everywhere in the kingdom. Every city and every region will have its own garrison army. They will become the main force for maintaining law and order, suppressing bandits, and suppressing places. At the same time, they will also be the reserve force of the main army. During times of war, they are also regular troops who can take up arms at any time, join the kingdom's war system, and obey the king's orders.
The Kingdom's existing seven administrative regions, namely Southern Border, Central County, Cinderella County, Tianshuizhou County, Oasis County, Beast Blood Castle, and Ice Cave City, must establish their own garrison troops. The total strength of the garrison should be no less than 80,000.
And under the garrison, there are militia organizations.
A militia organization is a semi-military organization. The militiamen themselves are not out of production. They need to set aside 14 days every six months for a training camp. At the same time, in normal times, they must also obey the orders of the commanders of the garrison corps in various places and assist the work of the garrison corps.
And this kind of militia belongs to the conscripts. Dane will not give them military pay, but there will be some food subsidies.
Dain is going to exhibit 300,000 militiamen—it's not a big price anyway.
The above is the military strength of the Kingdom of Schindler. It is worth mentioning that both the main army and the garrison are the regular army of the kingdom, with a total strength of 150,000. The 300,000 militiamen represent the powerful military mobilization capabilities of the Kingdom of Schindler.
This is an insurance method. Under normal circumstances, these militiamen are not used to actually fight, but in case of a critical moment of life and death, the Kingdom of Schindler will obtain Great war potential.
