Chapter 329: An Interview with Su Yi
In the city defense headquarters of Yueyang City, Sun Guodong, the deputy commander of the city defense, frowned and said to Su Yi: "Commander, after the Blood Wolf Country invaded the southwest region, it can be said that it is even worse for our Great Qin State, and now that the main force of our Great Qin Army in the southwest region has been defeated, it is presumable that the entire southwest region will soon fall." ”
Su Yi looked at the military map on the table, sighed and said, "Yueyang City is located in the central region of the hinterland of the Great Qin Kingdom, and we are also powerless against the southwest region, but the Ice Lion Country should not see the entire southwest region fall into the hands of the Blood Wolf Country. ”
Sun Guodong hesitated for a moment and asked, "Commander, is it better to wait for the attack on the Ice Lion Kingdom army east of Yueyang City?" Since the Ice Lion Kingdom is likely to intervene in the war in the southwest region, the Ice Lion Kingdom may send a group of troops from the vicinity of Yueyang City to rush to the southwest region. ”
Su Yi waved his hand and said: "The time of the attack on the Ice Lion Kingdom army in the east of Yueyang City remains unchanged, we can't pin our hopes on the enemy, and the five tank regiments and seven temporary divisions we participated in the attack have completed the pre-war preparations, and more than 1,300 Xiuniao fighters and more than 700 goshawk dive bombers of the independent division of the Air Force are also on standby at any time, we have every strength to defeat the Ice Lion Kingdom army currently gathered in the east of Yueyang City, and even recover a large area that has fallen in the east." ”
Sun Guodong nodded, "Commander, the reporter of Daqin Daily, I want to conduct an exclusive interview with you, hoping to use this to boost the fighting spirit of the people of the whole country to resist the invaders!" ”
There are several influential newspapers in Yueyang City, which have never completely evacuated Yueyang City, and have been tracking and reporting on the defense of Yueyang City, Daqin Daily is one of them, and it is also the one with the largest circulation.
Su Yi thought about it for a moment and said, "This is also a good propaganda for us, let the reporters of the Daqin Daily come over as soon as possible, and strive to let this interview appear in the newspaper before we launch an attack on the Ice Lion Kingdom army east of Yueyang City." ”
On the morning of August 7, 2538, in the office of Su Yi of the Urban Defense Headquarters, Su Yi was interviewed by Ye Nan, a female reporter from Daqin Daily.
Su Yi's wives in the Tang Empire and the Han Kingdom all have stunning looks, but when Su Yi saw Ye Nan, the female reporter who interviewed him, he was still shocked by Ye Nan's beauty.
"Commander Su, you are my idol, it is my honor to interview you today, if you have any questions that you avoid during the interview, you can tell me directly." Ye Nan said to Su Yi with a little excitement.
Ye Nan is only twenty-two years old this year, he has only worked in Daqin Daily for less than two years, and he can only be regarded as an ordinary reporter, Ye Nan did not expect that the newspaper would give him the task of conducting an exclusive interview with Su Yi.
Su Yi smiled slightly: "I didn't expect your newspaper to send such a beautiful female reporter to interview me, and I feel honored to know Miss Ye, so let's start the interview now!" ”
Ye Nan heard Su Yi praise her for being beautiful, and her heartbeat didn't know why it sped up, but Ye Nan quickly adjusted it and glanced at the interview script, "Commander Su, then I'll start an exclusive interview with you now, I don't know what Commander Su thinks about the Blood Wolf Country's robbery of the southwest region of our Great Qin Country this time?" ”
The interview script in Ye Nan's hand was prepared before he came to interview Su Yi, and the content of the interview was agreed by Sun Guodong, deputy commander of urban defense.
Su Yi then said: "As the only human country in the world, our Great Qin Kingdom has always hoped to live in peace with other orc countries, so that humans can truly become friends with the orcs of other countries, but some orc countries, such as the Ice Lion Country and the Blood Wolf Country, have ignored the kindness of our Great Qin Country, and even trampled on it ruthlessly, I can tell these invaders of the Ice Lion Country and the Blood Wolf Country here that your plan will not succeed!" ”
Ye Nan's face was a little gloomy at this time: "Commander Su, at present, only part of the southwest region, part of the central region and part of the southeast region of our Great Qin Kingdom have not yet fallen, and the main force of our Great Qin Army in the southwest region has been defeated by the army of the Blood Wolf Country, and the loss of the entire southwest region is inevitable, do you think our Great Qin Kingdom still has hope to drive out the invaders of the Ice Lion Country and the Blood Wolf Country?" ”
Su Yi said firmly: "I think justice will eventually defeat evil, in this war to resist the invasion of the Ice Lion Country and even the Blood Wolf Country, our Great Qin Country is the victim, it is the passive acceptance of this war, it is the representative of the righteous side, while the Ice Lion Country and the Blood Wolf Country are the invaders, the representative of the evil side, I believe that the final winner of this war must belong to the righteous side." ”
"Commander Su, what you said is so good, justice will eventually triumph over evil, and I also believe that our Great Qin Kingdom will definitely not perish, so what does Commander Su think our Great Qin Kingdom should do next to drive out the invaders of the Ice Lion Country and the Blood Wolf Country?"
"Although I think that our Great Qin Kingdom will definitely win this war, but due to the strength of our Great Qin Country, there is a big gap between the Ice Lion Country and the Blood Wolf Country, so I hope that all the people of our Great Qin Kingdom, whether it is the people in the area controlled by our Great Qin Army, or the people in the occupied area, should take action and let the invaders of the Ice Lion Country and the Blood Wolf Country fall into the vast sea of a popular war."
Even if Su Yi had any plans to deal with the Ice Lion Country and the Blood Wolf Country, he would not say it directly in the newspaper, so to the question raised by Ye Nan, Su Yi's answer was actually sloppy and perfunctory to this question.
Ye Nan heard that Su Yi was unwilling to answer his question just now, and immediately changed the topic, "Commander Su, for the battle in Yueyang City, do you think the three provisional armies under your command can finally thwart the Ice Lion Country's army's attempt to capture the capital of our Great Qin State?" ”
Su Yi said with a smile: "Presumably Miss Ye should also know that although there are only three provisional armies under my command, the establishment of the provisional first army, the provisional second army and the provisional third army is not the same as the other units of our Great Qin Army, plus a number of supplementary regiments formed for the three temporary armies, now the strength of each provisional army is more than 650,000, which is equivalent to the total strength of the thirteen armies of our Great Qin Army, so I am confident that I can thwart the second attack of the Ice Lion Army on Yueyang City, You must know that I have already thwarted the attack of the Ice Lion Kingdom army on Yueyang City once, and it is normal to thwart it again. ”
Ye Nan hesitated for a moment and asked: "Commander Su, as far as I know, almost half of the troops sent by the Ice Lion Country to our Great Qin State are gathered around Yueyang City and the five counties in the south at this time, and they are all elite troops of the Ice Lion Country Army, Commander Su is confident in holding Yueyang City, does it mean that he is confident in defeating the more than two million elite troops of the Ice Lion Country Army?" ”
"Of course, I hope to defeat the more than two million elite troops of the Ice Lion Country Army, and it is best to eat all the more than two million elite troops of the Ice Lion Country Army in one bite, in this way, the situation of our Great Qin Kingdom will immediately have earth-shaking changes, and that will also be the prelude to our Great Qin State army launching a counteroffensive against the invaders of the Ice Lion Country."
Ye Nan hurriedly asked, "Commander Su, can we really wipe out more than two million elite troops of the Ice Lion Country Army?" ”
Su Yi shrugged his shoulders and said: "This is just one of my wishes, you must know that the army of the Ice Lion Country ranks first in the world in strength, and its Praetorian Guard and the garrison army composed entirely of orcs are quite strong in combat, otherwise our Great Qin Country would not have so many areas falling, and it will be a very difficult task to eliminate the more than two million Ice Lion Army around Yueyang City and the five counties in the south, of course, I and the millions of soldiers under my command will do whatever it takes, to try to accomplish the impossible. ”
Ye Nan continued: "Commander Su, I believe there will be a miracle!" As we all know, the army under the command of Commander Su can match the combat effectiveness of the elite troops of the Ice Lion Army, and a large reason is that the army under the command of Commander Su is equipped with many advanced weapons and equipment. ”
Su Yi smiled slightly, "Due to historical reasons, we humans have always been in a position of being oppressed by the orcs, but it is undeniable that now that this world can develop to the present, we humans have made great contributions, and many things in the world have been invented by us humans, including gunpowder and the earliest artillery, but these inventions and creations have been plundered by the orcs. And where it was produced, that's a military secret. ”
Ye Nan said excitedly: "Sure enough, these advanced weapons and equipment are all produced by our human beings, General Su, in other regions of our Great Qin Kingdom, some of them are hot-blooded young people, hoping to join the army to resist the invaders, but limited by the lack of weapons and ammunition, our Great Qin State is unable to carry out unlimited large-scale military expansion, I don't know if the weapons and ammunition in the hands of Commander Su can support the rest of our Great Qin Kingdom?" ”
Su Yi smiled bitterly and said: "The production of these advanced weapons and equipment and ammunition is limited after all, and for the time being, it can only barely meet the needs of the three temporary armies under my command, and cannot support the brother troops in other regions, but a while ago, I handed over a large number of captured weapons and ammunition to the Ministry of Defense, of which the standard rifles of the Ice Lion Army alone are as high as 400,000, and now the Ministry of Defense has relied on this batch of weapons and ammunition to form hundreds of thousands of new army units in the southeast region, no matter how difficult it is, I will also try my best to raise arms and ammunition to support fraternal forces in other areas. ”
"Commander Su, there was news before, because you did not send troops to support the friendly forces south of Danyan County and Huining County according to the order of the Ministry of Defense, and sat back and watched the friendly troops be attacked by the Ice Lion Country army, so that Yueyang City and the five counties to the south were surrounded by the Ice Lion Country army, I don't know if this matter is true?"
Su Yi sighed and said: "At that time, while the army of the Ice Lion Kingdom was attacking the areas south of Danyan County and Huining County, the attack on the three urban areas of Yueyang City suddenly increased the intensity of the attack, and also sent a large number of troops to threaten the east and west lines of the five counties in the south, so that there were more than two million troops under my command, but they were pinned down and unable to move, and finally let the Ice Lion Kingdom army surround the troops under my command in the territory of Yueyang City and the five counties in the south. ”
"Commander Su, I heard that you are planning to issue military tickets in Yueyang City and the five counties of Yuhong, Zhutian, Lanping, Danyan, and Huining to replace Qin Yuan of our Great Qin State, I don't know if this matter is true?"
Su Yi nodded and said: "I do have plans in this regard, after all, now that Qin Yuan's purchasing power has plummeted due to the war, the common people have no choice but to start bartering, and the military salaries of the officers and soldiers under my command have long begun to use gold and silver to replace Qin Yuan for distribution, and I am ready to issue a gold-based military ticket to circulate in my jurisdiction to replace Qin Yuan, which has been plummeting." ”
For the more than two million officers and soldiers under his command, especially those with relatively high military ranks, it is not enough to just show affection, Su Yi brought a large amount of gold and silver from the Tang Empire and the Han Kingdom to the world of the Great Qin State, which was used to pay the military salaries of more than two million officers and soldiers, and the military salaries of the officers and soldiers under Su Yi were much higher than those of other troops in the Great Qin State, which was also one of the important reasons why Su Yi was able to firmly control the more than two million troops under his command.
Before the invasion of the Ice Lion Kingdom, a Qin Yuan could buy about ten kilograms of rice, with the defeat of the Great Qin State army on the battlefield one after another, Qin Yuan's purchasing power continued to decline, especially after the invasion of the Blood Wolf Country, Qin Yuan plummeted, as of the beginning of August of the Divine Calendar 2538, a kilogram of rice would cost about fifty Qin Yuan, and Qin Yuan had plummeted five hundred times compared to before the war.
has been using real money to pay the salaries of the officers and soldiers under his command, after all, it is very troublesome, and Qin Yuan has plummeted all the way, and even now it has not reached the bottom, so Su Yi decided to issue a currency to replace Qin Yuan.
However, now that the government of the Great Qin State still exists, Su Yi can't do some things too much, so he is ready to call this currency a military ticket, of course, it is just a way to cover up.
The female reporter Ye Nan then asked Su Yi a few more questions, and then ended this interview with Su Yi, "Commander Su, thank you for accepting my interview, our Daqin Daily will publish your interview as soon as possible." ”
Su Yi looked at Ye Nan, who was the best choice in figure and appearance, and suddenly his heart moved, and he said with a smile: "Miss Ye, it's almost time for lunch, I don't know if I have the honor to invite Miss Ye to lunch?" ”
Ye Nan's eyes lit up, "Commander Su's invitation, how could I refuse it!" ”
