Chapter 1363 Strategizing

Yes, there are a little passive movements on the shell, and these small movements, if they do not pass through the instrument, really cannot be checked.

On the cannonball that Locke gave to Kucha Khan, Kokuton made a little move.

The action is small, but the effect is very good.

As we all know, the distance that a shell can fly is determined by the thrust generated by the differential thrust after the explosion, as well as the air resistance it faces.

Like the front end of a missile, it is designed to be streamlined in order to reduce air resistance so that the missile can shoot a greater distance.

But now, Cocuton has moved a little bit on the shell, causing the air to exert more resistance to the shell as it flies.

Under the premise that the thrust generated by the explosion does not change, the distance traveled by the shell will be reduced considerably.

And according to Cocuton's calculations for a whole day, the result was that the furthest was just outside the barracks of the border garrison.

However, this is also Cocuton's worst estimate.

Cocuton's answer is not far from the actual value. The artillery shell with the longest range was only a dozen meters away from the perimeter of the barracks of the border garrison.

"Now all the shells have fallen in the barracks of the border garrison, plus Chigil is here, the border garrison and Kucha Khan's side, it is difficult to fight hard. Locke sneered.

"That's true. Cocuton nodded in agreement, although Locke was a little carried away now. But after this battle, the internal pattern of the entire Rock Kingdom will be truly determined. At this time, a little smugness is still allowed.

As long as in the future, Locke doesn't get too proud.

"But there's one thing I'm curious about. Locke laughed for a long time, and when he had laughed enough, he turned his head and asked. "As a lieutenant general, there is not much room for further promotion, even if the conditions I put forward are still relatively generous, but after that, how did you persuade Chigil to give up the idea of asking me for payment, and at the same time make him so desperate for me?"

The reason can be summed up in two sentences. Cocuton said with a smile.

"Oh, where?" said Locke, looking at Cocuton for a long time.

"The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. In the barracks of the border garrison, there are not a few people who want to stand on the highest peak, but they all know their strength. What they have to do is to rebel, not to play house. If something goes wrong, the first person to suffer is the chosen leader. Even if the leader who is elected before the incident breaks out, he can enjoy good treatment, but once the incident happens, these treatments will not only be a flash in the pan, but in the same way, as a leader, the punishment that needs to be accepted must be the heaviest, and the order of punishment must also be ranked first. Cocuton laughed. Although they all wanted to be the one who enjoyed the rights, they were worried that the success rate of this time was not high, so in the end, they still elected the eldest Cooper Rosen as the leader of this operation. ”

Locke nodded, but asked again.

"Since everyone wants to be the highest position, why didn't you choose Cooper Rosen, who is obviously the strongest in terms of position and ability, when I sent you over? If Cooper Rosen is convinced, won't we be able to get a strong foreign aid in the future?"

"In addition to being the oldest in ability and age, Cooper Rosen is also the most ambitious. It was too difficult to subdue Cooper Rosen, and it was easy for him to use it in reverse. Cocuton shook his head, then said. "I'm ashamed to say that I served in Cooper Rosen's immediate line of troops in the first place. And during one of the operations, I met with Cooper Rosen and was so frightened that my legs went limp. Although so many years have passed, I am afraid that for Cooper Rosen, a nobody like me, I want to leave an impression in his heart, based on my performance at the beginning and the ranking of my ability in the army, there is basically nothing possible in this life. And now, although all this time has passed......"

Speaking of this, Cokuton shook his head, and then said helplessly.

"Maybe it was Cooper Rosen who left an indelible nightmare image in my heart when I was not big at the time, so in my heart, I was extremely afraid of Cooper Rosen. Now let me convince Cooper Rosen, although it is a shame to say it, but I feel that Cooper Rosen is talking eloquently in front of Cooper Rosen...... I really can't do this. ”

"So you had that time, too. Locke said with a smile.

I thought that Cocuton had been a deserter when he was fighting with mercenaries. I didn't expect that so much time has passed now, although the last time I went to the barracks of the border garrison, Cocuton did go, but it was equivalent to being a deserter.

"Huh...... Makes you laugh. Kokuton smiled and said.

"Okay, I got it. Locke nodded, then said no more.

And in the barracks of the border garrison -

"Strange, why hasn't there been movement on Locke's side?" Cooper Rosen whispered.

At this time, the vanguard of the border garrison had already set off from the barracks. Except for carrying the necessary dry food and ammunition, the rest of the unnecessary things are basically discarded.

"I guess it's the same concern?" Chigil whispered.

"Well, alright, break through from Kucha Khan's side. Cooper Rosen didn't continue to ask, but shouted in a low voice.

"Yes, okay. Chigill nodded, and when Cooper Rosen turned around, Chigill suddenly lowered his head and began to tie his shoes.

By the time he had fastened his shoes, Cooper Rosen was already some distance away from him. What's more, the rest of the people, seeing Chigil stop, gave him a brief question, and then followed behind Kuoper Rosen and sprinted towards Kucha Khan's side.

"Just those of you who are already thinking about dividing the interests before the situation is clear, I hope you can survive tonight. Chigil sneered, and then suddenly the dancer's stomach showed a painful look on his face. "Oops, I should have had a bad stomach a few days ago, you go first, and I'll be there later. ”

Chigil had not shown any particular affinity with Kucha Khan, or Locke. In addition, after the subsequent plan was determined to be a failure, the expression on the face of Chigill really made everyone believe it.

The rest of the people didn't even think that this Chigil, who was on the surface wholeheartedly like them, and defended them about how to divide Locke's kingdom in the future, had become Locke's traitor a long time ago.

"Believe me, stay here, all you get is death, not success. Cocuton's words of persuasion were still firmly in Chigil's heart.

"Why?" asked Chigil.

"The so-called sky has no double sun, and there are no two kings in the country. In the border garrison, there is too much distribution of strength. Although on the surface, Cooper Rosen's attitude is the most important, but once it is really time to finally divide the interests, these guys will definitely become extremely strange and crazy. That's how Cocuton replied.

And then, the words prepared by Kocuton were the words that finally made Chigill make up his mind.

"If we really succeed in the future, who can guarantee that the division of so many people will be the most just? Your soldiers, in such a unit, can only be regarded as the bottom. Although it is not enough to be compared to the above, there is also a limit to what is more than the bottom. Do you think that when things are really successful, when the interests are divided, how much can you divide?"

Cocuton's words became the last straw in Chigil's heart.

In order to convince Chigil, Cocuton also specially told him that he could make a try.

That's right, last time, the unusually Chigill wasn't serious, he was just trying. As Cooper Rosen said, those of them who choose to wait and see are not meant to be the ones who can eat venison, but to be the ones who can cut the venison.

So, even though he believed Cocuton's words, Chigill still wanted to make one last attempt. If Cooper Rosen had been satisfied with their reaction, he would have given up on Cocudon.

But the reality is very cruel, just an attempt, when things are far from success, these people can actually make a big noise for that illusory thing. The most ridiculous thing is that one person even walked away with his sleeves!

Chigil, who still had a little expectation in his heart, was completely desperate for these people.

Because in the whole tent, only Cooper Rosen did not say anything against it, but Chigill was not a fool. If Cooper Rosen had really been so desperate to support himself, he would have made a statement long before the man who had left with his sleeves gone.

"Chigil is a smart man, since he can see that those people can't achieve great things, he can naturally see that he used to be a self-respecting soldier, and if he wants to live, giving up military power is the best choice. ”

After all, no matter how generous the superior is, he will not be absolutely at ease with his subordinates who once supported the army and respected themselves.

It's just that Cocuton didn't say the latter sentence.
