By the time the first rays of the morning sun shone on the fortress of Tours, Tia had already gathered everything and started preparing for the day's work. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

As a member of Palci's staff, she has a lot of work to do every day. Since Li Tianhao left Palchi with the problem trio and the second fleet, the chief of staff, Prime Minister Wei Song has become the de facto ruler of the country, but Wei Song's energy is mainly focused on the construction of the country, and the military affairs work is mainly presided over by the second chief of staff, the Minister of Military Affairs Brooks, the other two members of the staff group, Yamo and Elaine, Yamo is mainly responsible for intelligence work, and Elaine is more often to help Brooks deal with military affairs, So a lot of tedious daily affairs have always been handled by Tia. Only when dealing with important matters, the members of the staff group will gather together for a meeting to discuss, so it is not an exaggeration to say that Tia is the busiest one in the entire staff group, but Tia does not feel hard at all, because it is this busy work that kills the lonely time when Li Tianhao is not around.

Today was the rare gathering of the staff group in several months, because Li Tianhao had received news from the front that he needed to send another 30,000 reinforcements to him.

On the surface, it was not difficult to mobilize 30,000 men, but in fact, it involved all kinds of things, so even Wei Song, who was often absent, made a special trip from Ashtiton to the fortress of Tours.

In addition to the members of the staff group, the head of the Tours fortress, Hector, the head of the Mayolan fortress, and the head of the Palch cavalry unit, Müller, also attended the meeting.

The meeting was presided over by Brooks as usual, and after he read Li Tianhao's order in public again, he said: "Ladies and gentlemen, His Royal Highness's order is very simple, but there is a lot of room for how to implement it, and I hope to hear your opinions." ”

Gharnas, who usually likes to remain silent, was the first to speak this time: "According to His Royal Highness, 30,000 men alone are not enough to conquer the city of Basrady. Historically, the Basrates have suffered many such attacks, each of which has outnumbered 30,000 in large numbers, but none of them have succeeded. However, these 30,000 men are too much to defend the fortress of Anmen and Port Carter, so I think His Royal Highness must have other plans. ”

"I agree with Lord Gournath," Haektor continued, "but I don't think it is a matter for us to consider how His Royal Highness will use these forces, and we just need to arrange for them to be sent to the front in time." ”

"The front line? This is the front line, right? Brooks couldn't help but say: "If we want to transfer 30,000 elite soldiers from the front line here to Path Bay, we still have to consider the maintenance of the front here." ”

Intelligence Director Yamo said: "What Lord Brooks said is true, at present, our army is carrying out offensive activities too frequently in order to paralyze the enemy army, and the battle line between our army and the Arubanian army is also in a staggered state because of this operation, which will obviously disperse the deployment of our army's troops, if we want to transfer 30,000 people, then it is necessary to make adjustments to the current front." Should we take the initiative to withdraw from some places to maintain the front, or should we adopt an offensive posture to seize the opponent's stronghold to adjust the front? This also needs to be taken into account. ”

Jamo's words silenced the room for a moment - if there was to be a war for this, it would be much more troublesome. Because again, in order to make the Arubanian defenders Shurya and Abrahe arrogant, Palci made several small defeats in a row, making the whole battle situation staggered, if the offensive was taken at this time and won, then the previous efforts would be in vain, but taking the initiative to retreat would also arouse the suspicion of the other party.

"Li Tianhao, this guy will really give us problems." The one who said this was the staff member Elaine, who was one of the few people in the Palch army who would call Li Tianhao by his first name.

Wei Song glanced at everyone, then moved his gaze to Tia's body, and said, "What do you think, madam?" ”

Seeing that she was asked by Wei Song, Tia smiled slightly and said, "Regarding this matter, I personally think there are a few main points. First, His Royal Highness wants these 30,000 people to be sent to Anmen with the Third Fleet, so considering the carrying capacity of the Third Fleet, these 30,000 people must be infantry. Second, regardless of His Royal Highness's actions in Perth Bay, we should select the best infantry possible. Thirdly, the battle with the Arubanian border is not the best option for us to attack or retreat, so the best way is to maintain the status quo. If it appears that the number of troops is insufficient because of the transfer of troops, it may be possible to mobilize troops from the rear to fill the gap. ”

"But the troops in the rear have no combat experience, and the mere number of people is not equal to combat effectiveness." Brooks Road.

Tia smiled and nodded, "I'm not talking about the newly recruited soldiers, but the soldiers in the hands of Lord Tatar and Master Jimda. ”

Tia's words made everyone sound surprised, and only Wei Song showed a knowing smile. Tia explained, "As you know, we've sent more troops there since the last time the Alubania and Yaqui forces attacked our rear from the sea. Doing so will certainly prevent another invasion by the other side, but it will also distract our combat power. At that time it was a stopgap measure, but now it is different, His Royal Highness has already hit the wedge in the heart of Arubania, and Arubania no longer has the strength to launch a new naval offensive, and even if there is, now our First Fleet is far more powerful than then, and we can intercept the opponent's fleet from the sea. Therefore, there is no need to deploy this force in the rear, at least most of it can be drawn to reinforce the front line, and new troops can be used to fill the vacancy, so that even if the strength is still slightly insufficient, it should not be too stretched. ”

When they heard this, they all nodded yes. At this time, Wei Song spoke: "Lady Tia said it very well, and I think it is appropriate to do this. Why don't we send 30,000 Nubian mercenaries to Anmen, and it would be a waste of human resources to let them fight the enemy in terms of the combat strength of the Nubian army. In addition, I would like to make some requests to Lord Muller, that the cavalry units you are training need to step up, and perhaps we will need your cavalry soon. ”

Wei Song's words lifted everyone's spirits. You must know that during this period of time in the battle against Arubania, Muller's cavalry unit has been on standby, on the one hand, because the cavalry was consumed too much in the previous battle, and the newly formed cavalry still needs to be trained, and on the other hand, in order to paralyze Arubania and avoid a large-scale attack. Wei Song's words were undoubtedly announcing to everyone that a full-scale attack on Arubania was imminent, so how could the Palci generals, who had been holding back for a long time, not be excited?

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Wei Song began to discuss the supply of the 30,000 reinforcements and other details with everyone. (To be continued.) )
