Chapter 134: Backer
Although the six columns of the rebel army are all under the orders of the general command of the rebel army, because the six columns are naturally isolated from each other in the territory of an orc country, the six columns have a very large degree of autonomy.
As a result, some columns found another backer for themselves outside the general headquarters of the rebels.
For example, the Flying Leopard Column, which is currently the strongest in the rebel army, is secretly linked to the Liang Yan Empire and has received strong support from the Liang Yan Empire in all aspects.
At present, the combat force of the Flying Leopard Column has a total strength of more than 50,000 people, which is several times that of the Silver Wolf Column.
And like the Red Tiger Column, although they didn't find any backers, the general headquarters of the rebels was in the Red Tiger Empire, and Gu Longpeng, the commander-in-chief of the rebels, directly served as the commander of the Red Tiger Column.
For example, most of the funds, weapons, food, and medicines that Zhou Rui donated to the rebels before belonged to the Red Tiger Column, and the other five columns could not get much.
Cheng Xianhou then said to Zhou Rui: "Zhou Dashuai, I have a lifelong friendship with Wei Zhao's father, if it wasn't for Wei Zhao's father, I might have become a pile of white bones long ago."
Now the situation of the Silver Wolf Column can be said to be very bad, with an extreme shortage of all kinds of materials, especially weapons and ammunition.
Although I have some face with Commander-in-Chief Gu, when it comes to the distribution of materials, Commander-in-Chief Gu can't allocate too much of his share to the Silver Wolf Column.
Wei Zhao came to see Zhou Dashuai this time, in fact, he hoped that Zhou Dashuai could give comprehensive support to the Silver Wolf Column. ”
Zhou Rui frowned and asked, "What is comprehensive support?" ”
Wei Zhao hurriedly said: "Zhou Dashuai, in addition to weapons and materials, Zhou Dashuai will send officers and soldiers to help the Silver Wolf Column to reorganize and comprehensively improve the combat effectiveness of each unit.
As long as Zhou Dashuai is willing to fully support the Silver Wolf Column, in the future, the Silver Wolf Column will be Zhou Dashuai's final say, and I can also give up the position of the commander of the Silver Wolf Column to Zhou Dashuai's people.
To put it more clearly, our Silver Wolf Column wants to take refuge in Zhou Dashuai. ”
At this time, Zhou Rui's heart couldn't help but be very surprised, although the military strength of the Silver Wolf Column was not strong, but as Wei Zhao said, the Silver Wolf Column had hundreds of thousands of peripheral personnel, and in the territory of the Silver Wolf Empire, there was also a very complete intelligence network, and the entire Silver Wolf Column could be regarded as a large force.
"Commander Wei, if you do this, will the general command of the rebels agree?"
"The current situation of the Silver Wolf Column is actually even more serious than what Uncle Cheng said.
The combat units of our Silver Wolf Column are now all divided into several deep mountains by the army of the Silver Wolf Empire, and some of them are almost to the point of running out of ammunition and food.
Since the General Headquarters can't control our Silver Wolf Column, then our Silver Wolf Column can only find a way to survive by ourselves! ”
Zhou Rui is actually very interested in controlling the Silver Wolf Column of the Resistance Army.
If the Silver Wolf Column is controlled by Zhou Rui, once the Silver Wolf Empire attacks again, Zhou Rui can let the Silver Wolf Column do some things in the territory of the Silver Wolf Empire and pull the Silver Wolf Empire back.
And controlling the Silver Wolf Column is equivalent to having an additional intelligence network all over the Silver Wolf Empire, no matter how you look at this deal, you won't lose anything.
However, Zhou Rui didn't make any promises to Wei Zhao on the spot, just said that the stakes were very high, and the Zhou family needed to discuss it carefully.
Cheng Xianhou and Wei Zhao did not live in Zhou's mansion, but were arranged by Zhou Rui in another courtyard in Xicheng District.
After Cheng Xianhou and Wei Zhao returned to their residence, Cheng Xianhou couldn't help but ask Wei Zhao: "Zhao Zai, are you really willing to give the Silver Wolf Column to Zhou Rui?" ”
Wei Zhao said with some bitterness: "Uncle Cheng, since the establishment of the Silver Wolf Column, it has been branded with the mark of our Wei family.
For the sake of the Silver Wolf Column, we Wei family children, I don't know how much we have sacrificed, to say that there is no reluctance, it is impossible.
However, the Silver Wolf Empire has intensified its encirclement and suppression of our Silver Wolf Column in the past few years, and if it does not get strong support, there will be no Silver Wolf Column in the future. ”
Cheng Xianhou nodded, "The strength of the Zhou family is unfathomable, and the financial resources are very strong.
If the Zhou family can take over the Silver Wolf Column, it may be a good thing, at least the soldiers of the Silver Wolf Column don't have to worry about hunger. ”
In a study in Zhou's mansion, after Zhou Rui told his father Zhou Xiaozheng about the Silver Wolf Column, Zhou Xiaozheng said in a deep voice: "You have to think about this matter yourself."
After all, the Silver Wolf Empire is separated from the Han and Tang Empires by the sea, thousands of miles away, don't waste your last effort. ”
Zhou Rui nodded, "I also have scruples in this regard, but if our Zhou family can control the Silver Wolf Column, it will be equivalent to piercing a nail in the heart of the Silver Wolf Empire."
This time, because of the Flying Leopard Empire, the Silver Wolf Empire had to sign an armistice agreement with our Zhou family, and when the Silver Wolf Empire was free in the future, maybe our Zhou family would have to fight with the Silver Wolf Empire. ”
After a pause, Zhou Rui continued: "If our Zhou family takes over the Silver Wolf Column, I am ready to send a group of officers and veterans to the Silver Wolf Empire, and directly reorganize the Silver Wolf Column into the Zhou Family's Silver Wolf Column, and all benefits and benefits will be on par with the Zhou Family's army."
Of course, according to the actual situation of the Silver Wolf Empire, the future Silver Wolf Column, various welfare benefits may be somewhat different from those of the Zhou Family. ”
"So who are you going to send to take over the Silver Wolf Column?"
"Li Dongbao and Fox Seven."
Li Dongbao is now the head of the guard regiment of the Ganyang Garrison Division, and Hu Qi is one of the high-ranking members of the "Ghost" intelligence organization, directly obeying Zhou Rui's orders.
Li Dongbao and Hu Qi were called together by Zhou Rui, and when they learned that they would be sent to the Silver Wolf Empire, they couldn't help but look at each other.
Li Dongbao hesitated and said, "Dashuai, can I go to the Silver Wolf Column to pick up the beams?" ”
Zhou Rui saw that Li Dongbao was a little reluctant to go to the Silver Wolf Empire, so he sighed and said, "Leopard, you also know why the Silver Wolf Empire will admit to our Zhou family this time.
When the Silver Wolf Empire resolves the contradiction with the Flying Leopard Empire, it is likely to make a comeback.
Therefore, this silver wolf column of the rebel army is actually very important to our Zhou family, once the silver wolf empire attacks again, the silver wolf column can completely set the backyard of the silver wolf empire on fire, involving the energy of the silver wolf empire.
Now you understand, why did I have to send you? ”
Li Dongbao scratched his head, "Dashuai, I don't understand it yet."
I feel that in our Zhou family, there are too many suitable candidates for me, but I haven't even been on the battlefield. ”
"Because the Silver Wolf Empire is too far away from the Han and Tang Empires, I must send someone who is absolutely trusted to firmly control this Silver Wolf Column for our Zhou family.
Don't go to the end, our Zhou family contributed money and efforts to this silver wolf column, but made a wedding dress for others. ”
When Li Dongbao heard Zhou Rui say this, he had no choice but to nod and say, "Dashuai, I'll go!" ”
Zhou Rui nodded, "This time, about a thousand middle- and low-level officers and veterans will be dispatched to follow you to the Silver Wolf Column."
In addition, I will send Xiang Tao to you as a deputy, although that kid is greedy for money and lustful, but his brain is good, if you encounter any problems, you listen to his opinion.
As for weapons and equipment, in order to avoid exposing the relationship between our Zhou family and the Silver Wolf Column, we can only give you some captured guns and ammunition to use first.
As for the rest of the supplies, I will provide unlimited supplies to the Silver Wolf Column. ”
Li Dongbao couldn't help but be happy when he heard that Xiang Tao also followed him to the Silver Wolf Empire.
Xiang Tao and these people around Zhou Rui have a good relationship, and Xiang Tao has many unique insights in military operations, at least Li Dongbao was conquered by Xiang Tao's paper talk.
Then Zhou Rui said to Hu Qi: "You immediately transfer a group of elite soldiers from the 'ghost shadow' and bring them to the Silver Wolf Empire."
When you arrive at the Silver Wolf Empire, you will not only have to take over the intelligence network of the Silver Wolf Column, but also penetrate this intelligence network into the entire Silver Wolf Empire, and as far as possible, establish an intelligence network belonging to the 'ghost shadow' in the other five beast countries. ”
When Hu Qi heard this, he immediately said excitedly: "Don't worry, I, Fox Qi, will definitely live up to Dashuai's expectations and establish our 'ghost' intelligence network in the six major beast countries." ”
Zhou Rui said again: "This time you go to the Silver Wolf Empire, you must cooperate with the leopards, and don't be soft or have any scruples about some people who obstruct our Zhou family's control of the Silver Wolf Column." ”
"Yes, Marshal."
Xiang Tao learned that he was going to be sent to the Silver Wolf Empire, and patted his chest and assured Zhou Rui: "Don't worry, as long as the support given by the Great Shuai is in place, I will help the Great Shuai defeat the Silver Wolf Empire and let the Great Shuai ascend the throne and become the emperor in the Silver Wolf Empire!" ”
Zhou Rui couldn't help but kick Xiang Tao's ass, "The Silver Wolf Empire is not the Han and Tang Empire, it is the lair of the wolf clan, you have to be cautious when you go to the Silver Wolf Empire."
It doesn't matter if you lose your own life, but don't involve so many brothers to die with you. ”
Xiang Tao didn't care about being kicked by Zhou Rui, in Xiang Tao's opinion, beating is kissing and scolding is love, look at the entire Zhou family, and he has this special treatment.
Wei Zhao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he learned that Zhou Rui agreed to fully support the Silver Wolf Column, or to take over the Silver Wolf Column, at least the Silver Wolf Column would not be destroyed by the Silver Wolf Empire in his hands.
Next, Zhou Rui and Wei Zhao had a long talk for a full day, and then Wei Zhao decided to secretly send his wife and children to Ganyang City, and the position of the commander-in-chief of the silver wolf column, Zhou Rui decided to still be held by Wei Zhao.
Li Dongbao will serve as deputy commander-in-chief and director of the logistics department of the Silver Wolf Column, Xiang Tao will serve as the chief of the Operations Department of the Silver Wolf Column, and Hu Qi will serve as the director of the Intelligence Department of the Silver Wolf Column.
As for the large number of weapons, ammunition, food and medicine that Zhou Rui promised to aid the rebels before, Zhou Rui will still deliver them in full, but then more weapons, ammunition, food and medicine will be secretly transported to the Silver Wolf Empire.
