Chapter 550: Years of Planning, Just for a War
The next day, outside the city of Handolo, it was still snowy, although it was only the hottest summer in the country.
But in the northernmost part of the country, the city of Handolo, is still like the poem written by the sages of the earth.
The scenery of the snow country is thousands of miles, the ice is thousands of miles, and the snow is drifting!!
There was only an endless white ice field in front of him, but at this time, outside the city, the border between the Shuangyan Kingdom and the Rock Fire City was bleak and lifeless.
This does not mean that the other side has withdrawn its troops, on the contrary, in the past few days, King Hessay has continued to receive military reports that the other country's Bentley is really constantly converging here.
In just a few days, the total number of soldiers on the other side has risen to one and a half times the previous one, that is, 15 million soldiers.
On the other hand, the current garrison of Handolo City has also increased, but it is obviously not much, mainly because the current Grand Duke of Yulan has specially issued an order.
Command the wind resistance from the city of Handolo, the nearest city, at any cost, even using the most expensive hedrons, as a thruster to speed up the troop movement.
In addition, a large number of mercenaries were hired in the civilian sector, including wartime economic control, and all the resources that could be used in wartime in the country were concentrated, and they were agreed to be disposed of and supplied to the front.
At present, the way in which the rear side handles it is to follow the current set of temporary economic management policies.
Although the rich are said to be rich, they are still subject to economic control, and they eat a fixed ration every day, but they eat a little better than the average person.
The aristocracy, on the other hand, tried to tighten their clothes and food, and tried not to occupy too many public resources.
The aim of this is to effectively curb the problems caused by the civil unrest that led to the displacement of a large number of people and the lack of food.
Having solved the problem in the rear, King Hessey returned all his attention to the front.
At this moment, King Hessai has estimated the strength of Handolo City in the city, which is currently about 5 million.
And of those 5 million, 3 million belong to the regular army, and most of those who remain are urban dwellers, plus logistics troops.
And the army that the other side currently has is already three times this number, and even as high as five times.
Therefore, King Hessey is basically under pressure, and his reinforcements, the convoy, will not arrive for nearly two or three days.
And this is still an operation that only has to be operated day and night, desperately on the road.
Otherwise, as far as the current situation is concerned, such a large amount of troops will be transported, and there will already be such a large number of gunpowder shells and other large-scale ammunition preparations.
Not to mention how long it takes to prepare in the early stage, it is the ration that 30 million people eat a day, which is a particularly big problem.
However, this problem is no longer something that King Hessey can solve, so King Hessai, on the one hand, ordered the army to reduce what they were carrying as much as possible and move forward at full speed.
On the one hand, I found Ikyu and wanted to ask for help!
As for why he is looking for a break, it may just be that he just wants to touch a dead mouse, or he simply wants to complain and release the pressure and fear in his heart.
"Master Yixiu's next problem is big, the number of enemy troops is constantly increasing, and according to the information provided by our spies, the enemy's troops are also constantly converging towards our border Handoro City!!"
"Secondly, it is the most headache and the most difficult problem to solve, that is, the current problem of grain and grass, the country has just experienced a war, in order to stabilize the mood of the people, a large number of civilian grain and grass must not be allocated, and the time is too urgent, so it is impossible to raise a large number of rations, what do you say?"
When Yixiu heard this, he smiled secretly, in fact, he had already considered this kind of problem.
After all, King Hesse had just become king, and the country had just been taken over by him, facing sudden civil strife and a sudden invasion of Germany.
King Hessey was at a loss, and so were the people of this country.
On the other hand, the Shuangyan Country, from the highest level of this country, that is, the king to the lowest level of the commoners.
In fact, they began to prepare for this long-planned war from the very beginning.
Even decades ago, it kicked off, constantly harassing the border, and then creating a state where you can only fight for ten minutes.
Or that he was afraid of the high priests of the Hehuo Kingdom.
And the most amazing thing is that the king of this country is very clever, and he has created another illusion.
That is, they will only find soft persimmons to pinch, such as the pig-headed country where the country's territory bordered the Shuangyan country before.
was bullied by the Shuangyan Country for many years, and even in the end, it was completely annexed and became a colony of this country.
But in the eyes of most of the nobles in this Hehuo country, including the old king back then, they all felt that the country was late and like that.
will only find weak bullies, for the big brother, he can only bow his head to the subordinate, at most he will engage in some small actions, there is no need to worry about it at all.
But because of this wrong perception, over the years, in fact, King Hessai's stupid old father didn't pay much attention to the tiger that had been lying beside him.
And the tiger beside him has been doing one thing all these years, that is, he has been preparing for today's big war.
Including spending a lot of money to train the priests who were able to do so first, the investment in this aspect of the Shuangyan Kingdom is more than 10 times that of the Hehuo Kingdom.
Moreover, not only that, but a large amount of state financial funds have also been issued for the training of the army.
These include the training of well-trained knights, the best special forces, the research of the latest engineering weapons, combat individual weapons, and the purchase of more advanced weapons from the higher empires.
But the most ridiculous thing is that these things spent on the defense of the entire kingdom were erased by the king of the Shuangyan Kingdom and turned into various miscellaneous expenses.
Often, the interests will shake their heads first, and then arrest him in the name of corruption by a certain nobleman, and then release him again, repeatedly, repeatedly.
As a result, in the eyes of the public, the political arena of Shuangyan Country is a pool of sewage, and the finances are even more chaotic.
As a result, when King Hessey ascended the throne and was preparing to solve the country's civil strife, the Shuangyan Kingdom, which had been planning and preparing for decades, suddenly attacked King Hessai, and it seemed so unprepared.
But until now, Yixiu really didn't have time to complain here, because it was useless at all, and after thinking for a while, he said to Song Qingshu who was standing behind him.
"Apprentice, I have something very important to explain to the teacher, come here!!"
When Song Qingshu heard this, he immediately ran over, bowed his head, and explained in his ear.
"It's time to explain everything, go and do it immediately, and give you almost 1 to 2 days!!"
"Yes, Master, the apprentice will definitely do what you want the apprentice to do. ”
After that, Yixiu didn't plan to avoid it, and directly opened the door of space in front of King Hessai, and sent Song Qingshu back to the plane of Heaven and Dragon Slayer!!
is also resting, still thinking that Song Qingshu really has to finish it quickly, go back to raise food and grass, and it is best to finish it in one to two days.
Suddenly, there was a burst of cannon sound outside, and Ichixiu's pupils suddenly contracted, and he muttered to himself.
"What should have happened happened, but the poor monk didn't expect it to come so quickly."
