Chapter Seventy-Three: The Game of the Princess's Marriage 3
"They may be waiting for a small bandit bandit, but why, I don't know, it's all a woman's intuition. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info "The princess said irresponsibly.
"Oh, please tell me about it, princess, and maybe I can counsel it. Bartley said.
"In the mountains south of the town of Neud there was a bandit of about 300 men, who, after the Romanians had invaded Austria, suddenly went out in whole and found them lurking near Salzburg, and we did not find out what they were doing there, but I came back and did not know as much as you. The princess told Bartley what the bandits were doing.
Bartley nodded and asked, "This is what Team 14 found out?"
"Yes. ā
"Who's their squad leader? Good job. Of course, Bartley knew who the captain of the squad was, because he had done his homework before he came.
"The leader of Team 14 is called Link, but their commander is not Link. The princess said.
"Why? A Guards squad goes out, and the general squad leader is the commander, why is the 14th squad an exception?" Bartley just wanted to lure out the one named Yu Wusheng, so he asked knowingly.
"The one I just appointed, Yu Wuming, belongs to Petrovich, and he has a deep knowledge of aristocratic reform and military reform, and he also has a good understanding of military training. The princess was at once excited at the thought of the man she had appointed, and then she recounted in detail how she had met this man, and how she had appointed him commander.
Bartley was very interested, at least he seemed to listen to it with great interest, and after listening to it, Bartley asked the princess, "Your Highness, you are very confident in this Yu Wusheng?"
"Yes, I have a lot of confidence in him. "At this time, it is impossible for the princess to be depressed and despairing.
"Then I won't talk nonsense, you know, the royal is no trivial matter, about your marriage, the Marquis of Linton has reached a preliminary consensus with our military department, our military department will transfer the eighth division of Upper Poland out of Upper Poland, control the eighth division in the hands of the royal family, and transfer the 44th division of the third line army into Upper Poland as compensation. Bartley bluntly told the princess the result of Linton's compromise with him.
The princess herself knew what he was talking about, and she didn't show the slightest anger, she knew that this was the royal frustration.
She brushed the hair on the side of her sideburns and said, "This is not appropriate, this will only allow Linton to control more troops, old marshal, can you tell me how to prevent the Eighth Division from being remotely commanded by Linton?"
"We have transferred the Eighth Division to Hamburg, which is the territory of the royal family, and I believe that the Eighth Division will not be able to move when it arrives, and at the same time we will replace all the senior generals of the Eighth Division. Bartley revealed his plan to the princess.
"It looks good, but this can't really control the Eighth Division, Yu Wuming proposed in the reform of the military system that the real managers of a unit are those middle and low-level officers, and the middle and low-level officers can't be of the same mind as the senior officers, so it is impossible for the senior officers to control this unit. The princess said eagerly to Bartley, hoping that he would listen.
"I agree with this statement, just now I saw this manuscript of the reform of the military system, and to be honest, I was very shocked, this manuscript is very insightful, so I have informed the Marquis de Linton to suspend the process of the exchange of troops.
I need to see more of his performance, such as his understanding of the battlefield situation, his grasp of the battle situation, and his control of the troops, which are all things that I want to examine, and what is his attitude towards the royal family? Bartley finally stated his purpose.
"I talked to him, and his view of nobility is the most basic cornerstone of the empire, and that nobility must have the eight virtues of humility, integrity, mercy, valor, justice, sacrifice, honor, and soul, and I agree very much, and I think that with someone who knows this way, his loyalty should not be a problem.
As for the royal family, if I marry him, won't I tie him to our royal chariot? Old handsome, what do you think, I need your support for this, otherwise, my foolish father will marry me to the junior of the Lin family. The princess said, if there is someone from the time and space of Yu Wuming, she will definitely complain, isn't this the eight virtues of knights?
"I've read Yu Wuming's manuscript, he writes very well, I heard you say that he still has experience in aristocratic reform, I think you have won two allies, if you believe me, I'll fight for it from the NSA, after all, Linton's forces are still loyal to the royal family in the civil system, military and intelligence systems, otherwise he can directly ascend to the throne, and he doesn't need to use such small means as now. Bartley analyzed.
"Have you read Yu Wusheng's manuscript? Did my father show it to you? It seems that my father is not completely confused. When the princess heard that Bartley had read the manuscript, and that he had shown it to the Emperor when he had returned, he naturally thought that the Emperor had shown him the manuscript.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, this is a familiar chamberlain who showed me, I heard that the emperor's manuscript was thrown into the wastebasket. Bartley didn't want to tell the princess the truth, but he eventually told the truth.
"Alas, my old foolish father!" the princess shook her head, and continued, "I will leave this matter to you, old marshal, at least to help me fight until the end of this counterinsurgency war." ā
"Don't worry, Your Royal Highness the Princess, I will do it, and, if possible, please inform the princess that this Yu Wusheng will deal with the family affairs in the fiefdom at the appropriate time, and don't let Linton take the lead. Bartley turned and strode out of the princess's palace.
At the same time, Linton also appeared in the old emperor's office, he graciously handed over a brocade box to the old emperor, he said: "Your Majesty, I recently heard that you have been working for too long in a row, and your spirit is a little sluggish. ā
"Hehe, it's Linton, you shouldn't just be here to send me medicine, right?" The old emperor was playing with the brocade box, he was really worried about the war in the south recently, so he inevitably worked a little longer, and his spirit was really a little weak, and it was really time for Linton to send a refreshment pill.
He opened the brocade plate, there were eight black pills in it, the pills were translucent throughout, and there was a strange fragrance coming out, the old emperor took out one and swallowed it directly, then drank the saliva and sent the pills down, and after a while, Ben's somewhat gray face became rosy.
The old emperor patted the brocade box and said, "The prime minister has a heart! Is there anything going on today?"
"It's nothing, I just want to ask about the Eighth Division and the 44th Division. Linton said with a smile.
"Should the Prime Minister go and talk to Bartley about this, or should it have been discussed a few days ago?" said the old emperor.
"Ah, the old minister did discuss with Count Bartley a few days ago, when Count Bartley proposed it at that time, the old minister felt that it was not suitable, but after thinking about it for a few days, the old minister felt that this was also beneficial, so he was ready to agree to Count Bartley, but today Count Bartley sent someone to say that he was not thoughtful at that time, so he did not change his guard again. ā
"Isn't that great, don't you want to change your guard?" said the old emperor.
"I was just afraid that there would be some other details, so I came here to ask. There is also the matter of the three boys and the princess of my family, when can you inform the whole empire, in this eventful season, it can be regarded as a joy. Linton smiled carelessly, observing the old emperor's expression.
"Alas, I like your three boys very much, but my girl has her own ideas, or let your three boys come a few more times these days, I will arrange it, let them get closer, understand more, maybe the princess will be willing." As soon as the old emperor mentioned this princess who was not worry-free, he was also sweating.
"Then thank you to the emperor. The old minister retired. Linton slowly withdrew from the emperor's office, and when he left the room, he straightened his back again, this time, he knew that this change of guard was not the emperor's intention, it was purely the military minister's own opinion, obviously he still wanted to weaken his influence in the army.
This is probably because the old Bartley figured it out, not only will this change of defense not only fail to weaken his own purpose, but it is also likely to push the 44th into his arms, so Bartley gave up this plan, but it is okay, to train the 44th Division into a usable force, it will not be possible in two years.
Bartley came to the NSA in a hurry, but he was taken aback, and he heard that Joe had come, and it didn't take long for the bald director of the NSA to run out of the door, and no one knew where he went.
Bartley had no choice but to leave in a huff, he wanted to share the joy of the day with his old friends, but it seemed that it would have to wait until tomorrow.
He returned to his office, the information sent from today was already on the table, the Romanian side had quieted down, and heard that the war was being reorganized, and after the destruction of the Romanian spy system, everything could only be done by hearsay.
Fortunately, the various channels of intelligence are being rebuilt, and some information can now be sent back, and here is one that has piqued Bartley's interest, and a force of about 5,000 men has now assembled on the Romanian-Austrian border.
It seems that Don Quixote's losses are a bit large, and it is not a small drain on him to defeat 3 villages and towns in a row, maybe he is waiting for this army, but it may also be the bandit army that the princess said, no matter what, Don Quixote will get backup.
I don't know what the little guy Neuad was doing, and he let Don Quixote rest outside Salzburg, if he hadn't read the manuscript, he would have thought that this was a timid little kid.
At this moment, the old servant walked in and said, "My lord, Director Duncan of the National Security Agency and Deputy Director Hansen of the Noble Administration are here!"
