At the end of the meeting, the officers and generals walked out of the tent of the Chinese army one after another. Only Marquis Marco, Tang Feng, and the two generals, one mighty and one elegant, remained.

This is going to hold a high-level meeting in the military - except for Tang Feng, who is considered a close confidant.

Marquis Marco was the first to speak: "Mr. Anthony, everyone's reaction just now was not enthusiastic, not because they were dissatisfied with Mr. Marco, but because they had scruples in their hearts, they didn't dare to speak freely. ”

The Grand Duke of Smois, as he himself said, either does not gamble, or gambles if he wants to gamble. He entrusted the army to Antony, and at the same time sent his son, Marquis Marco, who was not familiar with military affairs, but not for supervision and checks and balances. On the contrary, Marco's mission was to suppress any noise that might exist in the army and clear all obstacles for Antony to take over the control of the army.

But soon, the Marquis of Marco was surprised to find that the old father's worries were purely unnecessary.

For Anthony, the young over-the-top commander, the mentality of officers and generals at all levels in the army varied. There are excited, admired, ashamed, and afraid. However, there is absolutely no one who is unconvinced.

No matter where the army is, there is one thing in common, that is, admiration and worship of the strong.

Needless to say, Anthony's ability to lead the army to fight the war is not a match for anyone else's opponent to tie these officers together in Hanover. Even if it is a personal martial arts cultivation, Anthony is also extremely powerful, and there is no match.

With such a strong man, it's too late for everyone to welcome him, so how can they think of opposing him? After all, the army is rushing to the battlefield, and it will face a cruel test of life and death. The more capable the commander who commands the battle, the better the chance that they will come back alive, and the more likely they are to win the battle.

Then, the Marquis of Marco found himself a complete superfluous ornament.

The genteel-looking general also continued: "The Marquis is right, Mr. Anthony's skills have been seen by everyone, and they have more personal experience. The brothers all felt admiration from the bottom of their hearts, and correspondingly, they had a little reverence for him. Therefore, it is inevitable that the performance is a little uneasy, and please don't blame Mr. ”

"yes, yes!"

The mighty general echoed in unison.

"Actually, what those rabbit cubs just said is not wrong. How can we compare to Mr. Anthony with that little bit of knowledge? Sir, since we already have a comprehensive plan, we will follow the plan. As for giving advice, it is purely to cause confusion to you, sir. Those rabbit cubs are quite self-aware, so they don't dare to talk nonsense. ”

Anthony smiled helplessly.

The army was in a hurry, and he didn't know that Grand Duke Smowa would put such a heavy burden on him. So it wasn't until he swore to go on the expedition that he only had time to meet with the middle and high-level generals in the army under the introduction of Marquis Marco. As for the military meeting and the battle plan, it can only be put on the march and discussed slowly.

He did not belittle himself, and he also knew that if he was to control the overall situation and command the battle, these people would be far inferior to himself. However, a person's abilities and energy are limited after all. No matter how smart and cautious he is, there will inevitably be omissions and mistakes. If everyone can use their brains more to check and fill in the gaps in the battle plan, he can also save a lot of time and energy.

Besides, after all, this is a huge collection of troops from the entire province, and it is impossible for him to command and dispatch everything alone. Therefore, officers at all levels also need to constantly temper and make progress to truly become the elite and skeleton of a strong army. To achieve this goal, how can you do it without a certain amount of insight and independent thinking ability?

But Anthony also knew that this matter could not be rushed. As long as they spend a long time with each other in the future and have a harmonious and close relationship, this feeling of awe will naturally disappear slowly. And then under their own subtlety, they will eventually develop in the direction they want.

Anthony nodded, skipping the topic.

"One more point, about the training of the army. Everyone has also seen Tang Fengqian's training mode, what do you think, you might as well talk about it. ”

The mighty general turned his head and looked at his colleague.

The elegant general pondered for a moment before he spoke: "Tang Fengqian's training method, we have never heard of it before, and we have never seen it. But it should work out well. It's just that with the military quality of our Hanoverian soldiers, I'm afraid it's a little difficult to complete. ”

He deserved to be a general in the army who was favored by the Grand Duke of Smois, and entrusted with important tasks, and immediately heard Anthony's voice. But for Anthony's plan, he can only say sorry in shame.

Anthony didn't care, and his brow didn't furrow.

"It doesn't matter, a strong army is trained, and no army can be born disciplined and well-trained. As long as you make up your mind and do it with your heart, you will slowly improve. This matter will have to bother the two generals a lot. ”

The two high-ranking generals said in unison that they didn't dare.

"Whatever Mr. Anthony says, this is originally a matter of our duty, and there is nothing to bother with."

Anthony nodded, "Good." ”

The mighty general seemed to have something to say, and after hesitating for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and asked Anthony with a fist.

"Mr. Anthony, there is a sentence that I don't like to hear, and the general will not know whether to say it or not."

Anthony was secretly funny, it's all said to this extent, can I still gag your mouth and stop you from saying it?

"General, please."

The mighty general seems to be a rough man, and he can't hide things in his heart. It was quite rare for him to be able to ask such a question first. At this moment, there is no more obstacle, and he directly said the words in his heart.

"Sir's Wen Taowu strategy, the last general will admire. But for the placement of the 1,000 surrendered bandits, the Admiral did not feel that it was appropriate. ”

The 1,000 bandits pretending to be the nobles' private army, after a month of training, have become a pretty strong army. With such a means of army reorganization and training, the mighty general can only write one word of uniform.

This army is now also in the ranks of the army, together with the 300 soldiers of the princess mission, led by Tang Feng.

However, ability is ability, the loyalty of this unit, and all the generals in the army are seriously skeptical.

The so-called is not afraid of god-like opponents, but only pig-like teammates. If a teammate has a different heart, the stronger their ability, the more brilliant the role of this pig teammate will be.

No one wants to be stabbed in the back by "their own people" when they are fighting to the death with the enemy.

Instead of always being on the lookout, it is better to weed this force out. Lest everyone be worried all day long, ten percent of the combat power will not be able to exert sixty percent.

Anthony waved his hand and said, "These bandits and private soldiers, although they have taken a detour before, they have now abandoned the darkness and turned to the light. I think we should give them a chance to make amends. ”

Seeing him say this, the two generals had no choice but to say yes.

Marquis Marco looked at the expressions on the faces of the two and knew that they didn't agree in their hearts. How can this work? His task was to reconcile Anthony with the generals in the army.

"I wonder if the two generals know Count Heberger?"

"Count Heberger?" Both of them looked confused, wondering why Marquis Marco had suddenly asked about this person.

Or the genteel general's flexible mind, "Is it the Count Heberger who proposed that Mr. Anthony send troops to suppress the bandits?" ”

"Yes, that's him!" Marquis Marco affirmed.

Count Heberger has not had any eye-catching performance in recent times, and the only thing that people can remember is that after the big military parade and actual combat drill, he made sarcastic remarks about Anthony, which led to the suppression of bandits. It can be said that a series of major events such as the private soldiers pretending to be bandits, the princess assassination, and the noble alliance all originated from the ridicule of Count Heberger.

"But there's one thing you don't know." Marquis Marco said mysteriously.

"What?" The two generals were naturally interested and continued to ask.

The Marquis of Marco was quite proud: "This Count Heberger, who spoke disrespectfully to Mr. Antony, is actually ......"

"Actually, it's the gentleman's man!"

Anthony knew what he was going to say, but he almost choked on his saliva.

Count Heberger is not a big beauty, what do you call my person? There is a great deal of ambiguity.

When the two senior military officials heard this, they were shocked and looked at the young man on the side in horror.

Even the mighty general, whose brain was far inferior to that of the muscular, figured out the joints in an instant.

This is not difficult in the first place, no matter how elaborate the layout is designed, after the picture is exhausted and then looked at the other way around, many things can be seen clearly.

Count Jochberger was originally on Antony's side, and all his words and deeds were naturally arranged by the instructions of the youth. Doesn't the latter series of major events mean that they are all within his plan or calculation?

If this is the case, then the new manager's scheming is really terrible.

The nobles and commoners of the whole of Hanover only saw the strength of the Grand Duke's Palace, and it was like thunder. If you don't move, you will uproot your opponent with one move.

However, who knows that it is the weak-crowned young man in front of him who plans and even commands everything.

It is no wonder that the old Duke of Esmois, after hesitating, resolutely decided to completely fall to the side of the royal family. It is no wonder that after the Grand Duke pressed out his entire wealth, he would put the supreme control in the hands of this young man.

This Mr. Anthony is more than capable of carrying this burden. And there is no more suitable person than him.

The gentean general suddenly came to his senses, and the Marquis of Marco mentioned the intentions of Count Heberger.

"With Mr.'s ability, the nobles of Hanover are not opponents. How could 1,000 vulgar men with well-developed limbs and simple minds be able to get off the palm of Mr.'s hand. However, the two of us have limited knowledge, and we don't know what Mr. means, so we worry about Mr. blindly. Shame, shame! ”

Their disapproving expressions before, Marquis Marco could see it, and it was estimated that he would not be able to escape Anthony's eyes. He said he was ashamed, but in fact he was sorry.

Anthony was naturally modest, but the atmosphere between the two sides slowly became harmonious.

Anthony is indeed not blindly confident, and he feels quite sure that he can use those private soldiers of various families for his own use.

First of all, the two sides don't have any deep hatred, and they didn't even know each other before. Even after experiencing a life-and-death struggle in the mountains and forests, it was only two armies fighting, each with its own master.

Secondly, these private soldiers were only recruited by major families, not confidants. Although the nobles sent a lot of force, they always had to leave some men to protect themselves. Of course, it is impossible to send all the confidants and lovers out and leave some people who can't be trusted, right?

They failed to carry out the task of the master and were captured, but the master family could not rescue them, so the previous employment relationship was cleared. Even strictly speaking, the nobles owe these warriors more.

In the end, even after Anthony's careful screening, there were still a few nobles who were mixed in, and it was no longer in the way. Not to mention that there are more than 10 million troops, and the sources of recruitment are also numerous and complicated, and no one can guarantee that none of them will be mixed with sand. Just saying that these die-hard lords were still in Norhanway Province and were still under the supervision of the Grand Duke of Smowa, they did not dare to do anything wrong.

It can be said that Anthony killed two birds with one stone. It not only weakened the armed strength of the nobles, but also facilitated the control of the Grand Duke's Palace. and made them hostages, which in turn contained the unstable elements that might exist in this force.

But there is no need to talk about these things in detail with others.
