Chapter 1883: Counting Together
Fast forward to a month ago -
"Is this something Suke gave me?" looked at what was in front of him, and an old man with white hair had a nonchalant look on his face.
"Yes. The man standing in front of him said respectfully.
"Okay, I know, you go back and tell Su Ke, I'll think about it a little and give him an answer when I get back. There was no sadness or joy on the old man's face, and he didn't know what he was doing in his heart.
"I hope you can think about it carefully. The man bowed respectfully to the old man, then turned to leave.
"Since you have something to do, then I'll help you take care of your land. The old man looked at the letter in his hand, and his face was full of sneers.
Time passed, and ten days later, a letter reached Suke's hand. In today's era of the Internet, most of the contact is done by telephone or other means of communication.
However, in order to avoid possible leaks, some special confidential things are naturally done in the most primitive way, so as not to leak secrets.
Just like at the beginning, in the Locke Kingdom, Guo Tianjun and his team, in order to ensure that secrets would not be leaked, they completely used handwriting to print, and they didn't even use computers.
In this case, James and the others have no way of knowing where those leaflets came from. And it is this seemingly backward method used, but it is the most secretive method.
After all, there is no city wall in the world that cannot be broken, only an army that does not work hard.
Similarly, in the online world, it can also be replaced by a computer that cannot be hacked by hackers in the world, only hackers whose technology is not up to par.
Of course, if you want to hack into a computer, you must first connect to the Internet, otherwise, there is no way to hack into it.
And Sooke's method is to use the simplest way of messenger to send a message. Even if someone else wants to hack in, but these things are not archived on the computer at all.
No matter how powerful a hacker is, there is no way to know.
Therefore, if you want to find out the information conveyed by the original method, you naturally have to use the traditional method to find out.
Time goes back to the present.
As the Su Ke conscription campaign spread to the four cities that were promised to Xu Xiangtian, the rest of the cities had already begun vigorous conscription activities.
Yes, that is, conscription.
The so-called policy at the top, there are countermeasures at the bottom. Although the strength and combat effectiveness of those city lords who were divided were still a lot worse than Su Ke's regular army. But after all, these armies are their own armies. Compared with those regular armies who are completely under Suke's orders, the strength is inferior, but after all, it is something that belongs to itself, isn't it?
Therefore, when Su Ke's conscription order was conveyed, these city lords immediately moved to other thoughts.
As soon as Suke's order was delivered, they began to recruit troops. And the number of conscripts is a quarter of their current troops.
And this newly recruited recruit Danzimen is to be sent over to support Su Ke's main army. Of course, the people who lead the team are naturally their diehards.
After all, it was agreed that the troops who had been sent to support them would return to the city to which they belonged when the war was over. This time, Su Ke's big conscription must be to compete for the place of the Golden Triangle, and Ye Cha and Mantuo obviously don't want to give up just like that, so Su Ke will start the first big conscription from his succession to the present.
And those who can survive the war are naturally not recruits.
Some veterans of the war served as instructors in their own inner squadrons. At that time, the combat effectiveness of the troops in your own city will also become stronger rapidly.
Although it is not easy to rebel and become king, it is not so simple for Su Ke to fight their idea when the time comes.
And this idea is the thought of all the city lords.
So in the end, the number of troops given to Suk was even more than Suk expected. But when he saw the combat effectiveness of these soldiers, especially after asking them about the time of their enlistment, Su Ke's face immediately became a lot darker.
He thought that those city lords might be fooled, but what he didn't expect was that when he needed troops to fight, they would still fool him like this!
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger...... Boroman saw Suke's face turn dark, and hurriedly opened his mouth to admonish. "Those city lords, they do this, in fact, it's not all bad for us. ”
"Tell me?" said Boroman, and Suke wanted to hear why he said that.
"If they are all veterans, then these troops definitely need to be considered with the worst idea in terms of loyalty. And now they are all new recruits, and they have only recently joined the army. "Or rather, they were forcibly conscripted and then sent over directly.
Of course, Boroman didn't say these words to Suke, who was already in a state of rage.
"Go on. Suke snorted.
"Although it's a recruit, I probably guessed what those city lords thought. Boroman sneered. "It's nothing more than wanting not to consume the elite soldiers in their own city, but also wanting the country to train a group of elite soldiers for them through this war. So His Majesty the King can take a look, although these are recruits. But in terms of physical fitness, it is still good. After all, if all these people died, it would not be a good thing for those city lords. ”
Boroman was right.
The agreement on the division of the envelope was clear to the people of the whole country. So when the big conscription began, ordinary people, in fact, had nothing to do with them.
And these recruits are the culprits of the fact that they were sent to death as cannon fodder, whether it is Su Ke or those city lords, the people in the country know very well.
"What do you mean......" Suke asked tentatively, looking at Boroman. "This time is the chance?"
"God-given opportunity, but what we have to do, there are two things now. The first is to train these recruits as soon as possible. ”
"I know that. Suke nodded.
"After teaching them the basics of fighting, we have to brainwash them. Boroman then went on to say the second half of the sentence.
"This ...... Wonderful!" Su Ke was stunned for a moment, then clapped his hands and laughed.
As Boroman said, if they were all veterans, it would not be easy to subdue this mixed team that was more numerous than Suke's people.
But now this army, which is completely composed of new recruits, wants to be subdued, but in terms of difficulty, it is much easier to subdue than the veterans.
More importantly, this war is for the sake of expanding the territory and the country. Sukh's decision was the right one, and with such an opportunity, no king would miss it.
But it would be a mistake to let a recruit who had not been trained at all go straight to the battlefield. Of course, these faults are also not Su Ke's, but the city lords who contributed to this matter.
In this war, the more recruits died, the more relatives of these recruits who were forcibly conscripted, the stronger their hatred for those city lords would be.
When the time comes, when you reclaim the cities that were divided and sealed out in order to win people's hearts, the resistance you will encounter will be smaller.
"What about the second?" said Boroman the first, and there must be a second.
"The second is, we should give Modo City to Huaguo. ”
"Xu Xiangtian has already given Huaguo a Ku Coconut City, and there are only four port cities in Doluo Country in total. If Modo City also gives Huaguo, we will never want to take it back!"
"But if we have the assistance of Huaguo, we will have a chance to swallow the country of Cha!" Boroman's words made Su Ke's face suddenly stagnate.
All he cared about was the port. But he completely ignored that he sighed because he also had the first port in Southeast Asia that was most frequently adjacent to the Indian Ocean, but he couldn't make good use of it.
Because over the years, although he has remained ambitious, he will no longer be as stupid as he was before, saying at every turn that if such and such a place is my land, I can do whatever it takes.
But he forgot that now there is such an opportunity for him to really turn the port of Yecha into his land!
"Go on. Suke let out a long exhale, then snorted softly.
"This time in the Golden Triangle, we gave Mantuo to the country, but we handed over the nest of Bona to the management of the country. The Mantuo Kingdom occupies a large area of territory, but the value of all the land is not as valuable as the resources hidden under Bona's lair. Will the Mandal Kingdom agree?"
"Well, of course not. Yeman, that old thing, has never given up until he takes advantage of it. Although Yeman is Su Ke's father-in-law, Su Ke doesn't have much respect for him.
"Then Yeman will just watch Ye Chaguo transport those things away?"
"Of course not, he will send troops to loot. Of course, it's more likely to be a stealth robbery. "At the beginning, Su Ke had been in Mantuo for nearly a year, and he knew Yeman well.
"As our allies, I think we should have the obligation to tell this possibility to the country. A wicked smile lingered on Boroman's lips.
And soon, Su Ke's mouth also brought a similar smile.
"Well, I see, tell you the king, I thank him for the reminder. The friendship between the country of Cha and the country of Dora will last forever. ”
"Yes. ”
When the messenger returned, Suke and Boroman glanced at each other, and they both saw a hint of coldness and smugness in each other's eyes.
What Boroman didn't know, of course, was that there were some Suks in this part of the plan that he didn't tell him.
