Chapter 162: The Fisherman Gains Profit (for the helmsman moonju0903)
The winter of the 68th year of the Byron calendar. ◢ with * dream ◢ small *.lā
The entire Manyu army leader trembled at the roar of the slave rebels.
This winter, it's their winter.
For the first time, Dicron showed the world his outstanding talent for command, a ragtag army composed of serfs, gladiators, hooligans, rogues, and coerced peasants, who were as agile as an arm under his command.
The Manyu slave rebel army, which is not favored by the world, actually carved out a living space by itself.
Philip and Patlem had to really abandon their prejudices, held their first meeting, signed a formal alliance agreement, abandoned their prejudices, and worked together to defeat the slave rebels as their primary goal.
Otherwise, the entire Manyurd army will become the territory of the slave rebels, and they will become the laughing stock of the lords and nobles of the world, and what face will they have to compete for the position of Grand Duke?
When the two sides signed the covenant, they strongly invited Angie Bena to join.
Among the three siblings, Angel Bena, who was originally the weakest, developed slowly and steadily when the other two lost their troops, and there was a posture of latecomers taking precedence, and her reputation for kindness and virtue slowly spread among the Manyu military leaders.
However, Angel Bena is extremely uninterested in this kind of alliance full of deceit, and still maintains her initial absolute neutrality, ready to go dark on the road of saving lives and helping the wounded.
In addition, she was very interested in the ancient river channel of Jacob in the Manyu army, and had been sending people to investigate the situation and persuade the people who lived here to move out of the area, after all, it was a low-lying area that was the most vulnerable to flooding if it flooded.
Those residents are not interested in this statement, the Manyu military leader is famous for drought and lack of rain, since his ancestors can remember, they have never heard of the Manyu military leader and flood disasters, if there is a flood disaster, they still want to do it!
Anyway, Angel Bena still went her own way, ignoring the invitation of the two brothers.
Philip and Patlem had no choice but to secretly grit their teeth and swear that when they exterminated the slave rebels and sat in the position of Grand Duke, they would make her look good.
The Manyu army led the wind and clouds, and the city changed the king's flag.
The Legion of the Eternal Night, however, was uneventful, not only with the Manyu army leader, but also with the Walled City Alliance, which was completely controlled by Benhebrew.
The Legion of the Eternal Night is dedicated to its own construction, not only in the Twin Cities, but also in the Three Caves.
In view of the chaotic situation in the Manyu military command, the Legion of the Eternal Night still focuses on the construction of the Twin Cities, supplemented by the construction of the Three Caves City.
With the increase of manpower and material resources, the construction of the Twin Cities has been rapid, and now the general outline can be seen, and it will not take a year or two to play a role.
The Eternal Night Legion does not look for its own trouble, and Ben Hebrew naturally will not take the initiative to provoke right and wrong, although he uses tough means to take the power of the Walled City Alliance into his own hands, but there are many hidden dangers, he must be careful to operate, slowly infiltrate, and truly turn the Walled City Alliance into his own power, which is obviously not something that can be completed overnight, and it takes a long time to grind hard.
The changes in the Manyu military leadership are said to have nothing to do with the Eternal Night Legion, but are actually indirectly related.
Philip's Golden Camel Heavy Cavalry suffered a heavy blow, not so much at the hands of the slave rebels as at the hands of the Legion of the Eternal Night.
The Legion of the Eternal Night traded Andes' longbow to the slave rebels in large quantities, and they had a plan in this regard, wanting to use their hands to trap the army led by the Manyu army, and it didn't matter who they were.
I didn't expect Dicklon, who is usually silent and silent, to have such a deep attainment in tactics, giving full play to the advantages of Andes's longbow, and perfectly integrating it with the specialties of gladiators.
Afterwards, Sean had led all the senior staff officers of the Military Staff to conduct relevant research and summary on this beautiful tactical maneuver of the slave rebel army, and had to sigh that under the current situation of the slave rebel army, Dicron was able to do this to this extent, which was simply a miracle, and the judgment of the direction of the war was beyond ordinary people.
I wonder if Dicron was able to predict the war as he did in the gladiatorial arena, or if there was a lot of luck in it?
At the beginning, his judgment was slightly worse, the situation of the entire Manyu army and the fate of the entire slave rebel army would take a 180-degree turn, no wonder before the battle, Starbuck almost broke with Dicklon, if Sean was in that position, it was estimated that it would be difficult to support Dicklon's decision.
If the Slave Rebel Army were replaced with the Legion of the Eternal Night, the Legion of the Eternal Night would not be able to do it to this extent, and it might even be better.
But don't forget, the Eternal Night Legion has been formed for almost two years, although it has not been tempered by real blood and fire, but their training has never stopped, a small practice in half a month, a big practice in March, and this kind of training intensity, many elite legions can't catch up, and cooperation has always been the focus of their research and drills, and it is extremely simple to fight and cooperate.
And the slave rebel army has been full of battles for less than a year from the beginning to the present, and most of the time it has been scattered in various places, gathered together, and twisted into a rope, but in the last few months, it is estimated that their generals have not recognized each other, let alone the soldiers below.
Although they have been neighbors with the Eternal Night Legion for a few months, they have taken advantage of a rare gap to repair the interior to a certain extent, and took the opportunity to trade with the Eternal Night Legion to trade some of the more troublesome members to the Eternal Night Legion as goods, streamlining the internal members.
However, this level of trimming, for a behemoth with thousands of members, it is difficult to say how effective it is, at most it is a clear division of the team, a unified order for both sides, and a more unified and complete equipment.
Not to mention that it is a cooperative operation like the Eternal Night Legion, and it is quite good to be able to complete extremely crude orders.
Looking at the performance of the Slave Rebel Army, Dicron is more of a manipulator from the perspective of the overall situation, and does not try to use the Slave Rebel Army to fight any unexpected cooperation.
In many cases, he only assigned a general position to the slave rebels, allowing them to attack at the first sight of the enemy, or rush forward without dying, and the rest was left alone.
Build on your strengths and avoid your weaknesses.
Dicron did the ultimate in this.
From here, it can be seen that the slave rebel army led by Dicron certainly has an element of luck, and real talent and learning are also indispensable.
The slave rebels have won a brilliant victory, capturing a large amount of baggage, and if they want to transform it into stronger combat effectiveness, the first thing that comes to mind is naturally the Legion of the Eternal Night.
They had tasted the sweetness of the previous war, and the things provided by the Legion of the Eternal Night were indeed expensive, but in terms of practicality, there was absolutely nothing to say, even the humble sapper shovel could play a huge role in a critical time.
When you have plenty of money, you naturally have to make a big purchase.
The Eternal Night Legion does not refuse to come, whether it is gold, silver and jewelry, grain and grass, or lame war horses, or broken spears and broken armor, even those war horses and camels that are killed in battle, as long as you can transport them, the Eternal Night Legion can give a good price.
Many things, in the hands of the Legion of the Eternal Night, were repaired or rebuilt, and then sold to the slave rebels at a great price.
The high-ranking members of the slave rebel army knew this, but they were helpless, who let themselves not have so many skilled craftsmen?
As for whether the top brass of the slave rebel army has produced technology as the primary productive force in their hearts, they are ready to work hard and build their own team of craftsmen.
The Legion of the Eternal Night didn't know that this winter, anyway, this winter, they were also stained with the light of the slave rebels, and they ate with a lot of oil, because the financial crisis caused by the large-scale construction was alleviated a lot.
In the first four weeks of the second anniversary of the Legion of the Eternal Night, the Legion of the Eternal Night officially finalized three major events that would have far-reaching consequences for the Legion of the Eternal Night.
The first thing is that the whole army has a big competition, in fact, this is not the first time that the Eternal Night Legion has been held.
Last year, the first anniversary of the establishment of the Eternal Night Legion, it was held once, but that time was a temporary decision, and the Eternal Night Legion had just been established, and the scale was relatively small, which was a kind of test of the waters.
This year's all-army contest was decided after the first all-army contest, and the whole army was gearing up to make corresponding preparations, some of them worked hard for individual awards, some of them worked hard for group awards, and even quite a number of soldiers of the attached engineering corps signed up to participate, wanting to take this opportunity to show themselves and see if they could be favored by the commander of the main battle corps and take the opportunity to be transferred to the main battle corps.
The whole army is in a big competition, and this whole army does not refer to the main corps of the Eternal Night Legion, whether it is the attached engineer corps, or those walled fort militias, Yang or those mountain people, they are all included.
As long as you meet the minimum passing mark, which is the recruitment requirement of the Legion of the Eternal Night, you can participate.
Regardless of the goal, it still has a strong stimulating effect on the Eternal Night Legion, allowing them to always maintain a sense of upward momentum.
Showing oneself is not only a human being, but also the innate instinct of many animals, most of the latter are for courtship and reproduction, human beings are detached from this basic level, and pursue a higher spiritual level of enjoyment, which is naturally more motivated.
It is not entirely appropriate to regard the all-army competition as one of the channels for selecting new recruits, but it can be regarded as one of his secondary effects.
The whole army of the Eternal Night Legion attaches so much importance to the whole army competition this time, because the next two things, said to be three things, are actually one thing, and the next two are the continuation of the whole army's big competition.
After the all-army competition, the Eternal Night Legion will open an officer academy, the full name of which is the Military Refresher Training Course.
As the name suggests, this is specially for the middle and high-level of the Eternal Night Legion, and it will be a more systematic summary and study of the management of the Eternal Night Legion and military warfare, and the Eternal Night Legion General Sean, Deputy Legion Commander Marshall, Hawkeye Special Service Section Chief Ralph, Captain McGee of the Skull Crusher Special Operations Legion, etc., will participate in it, that is, as instructors and students, they are now crossing the river by feeling the stones, learning and summarizing while teaching.
Whoever can join it must have its own uniqueness.
For example, Arnold, limited by the slow progress of his cultural level, is not particularly high-level, but in terms of falconry skills, he is more and more pure, and he is outstanding in the Eternal Night Legion.
Now it is not only falconry, but also needs to take apprentices and train more mountain eagle trainers and breeders.
Now it is a course that must be mastered by the proficient use of telecommunication by the captain of the hundred guards, and you do not need to be as professional as a trainer and breeder, but a better understanding of the habits of mountain eagles will be beneficial and harmless for future battles.
As long as you join it, it doesn't matter if you can learn something useful, you will be familiar with the unique talents of the Eternal Night Legion, and it will be your own network in the future.
It's an exaggeration, but the future of the Legion of the Eternal Night is absolutely limitless.
It's just that this place is not easy to get, not only has to go through repeated screening by the Military Staff, but also has to go through the investigation and review of the Military Discipline Supervision Institute, and finally has to be sent to Sean for inspection.
As a future middle and high-level officer training class, from the very beginning, Sean's positioning is very high, and he naturally has to strictly control it, not only his ability to pass the test, but also his mental outlook.
From the very beginning, the Eternal Night Legion paid more attention to ideological work, and the management was relatively humane - even though the Eternal Night Legion implemented relatively strict militarized management, but in the eyes of this era, it was still human, and it was several grades ahead of this era.
Nice benefits!
In this era when many people do not hesitate to kill people for a full meal, it is no longer good to have a full meal to eat every day and a change of clothes to wear.
So far, the most difficult time for the Eternal Night Legion, I dare not say that there has not been a single case of starvation or freezing to death, but there are very few, in terms of officer evaluation, this is the most basic requirement, once this kind of tragedy occurs in his jurisdiction, he will directly be on the blacklist of the Eternal Night Legion, not to mention promotion, not to mention the end, he is lucky.
Even so, the Eternal Night Legion can only say that its internal purity is relatively high, and not only the people of the Lurker Walled City Alliance, but even the Lord of the Manyu Army and the Slave Rebel Army may have buried nails in the Eternal Night Legion, but due to the strict control of the Eternal Night Legion and relatively backward means of information transmission, a lot of information cannot be transmitted.
There is always no shortage of strange people in this world, whether they are loyal or not, they are indifferent from beginning to end, no matter what temptation they face, there are such people in the Eternal Night Legion, and there are such people in other forces.
Although these people are very respectable in character, they pose the greatest threat to the Legion of the Eternal Night from different standpoints, and must be guarded against carefully.
The first phase of the military refresher training course has tentatively set 100 places.
After all, it is just starting the class, there are not even a few regular teachers, and the teaching materials can only support one or two weeks, and the whole course arrangement is not so much teaching and learning, but laying the foundation for future teaching, which belongs to the situation of half teachers and half students.
