The dismissal of all three front-line generals, although in the end they were temporarily replaced in their original positions, did not have a substantial impact on the army. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

But this will still make people feel that something is inappropriate, and now everyone knows that the war is imminent, and this treatment is a little inappropriate in the eyes of many people.

The military system of the Chinese Empire seems to be ambiguous, and Wang Sirui is obsessed with loyalty on the one hand, and the personal business of military officers on the other.

At the same time, some officers are encouraged to make decisions that seem crazy, but they must be reasonable and not go wrong.

Under this seemingly deformed system, it has been perfectly embodied in the army.

The simplest is the three factions in the current army, the loyal faction, the elite faction, and the crazy faction.

Each of the three factions has its own advantages and disadvantages, but no matter which dynasty it is, it is impossible to integrate the three factions perfectly.

This is the result of personal character, but when these three ideas are mixed together, how to knead them together becomes the biggest problem, and now, Cao Kun is also facing this problem.

Now he is facing only these three divisions, and they are the three divisions under his Eighth Army, and in a few days he will be responsible for commanding the two divisions transferred from the group army, which two divisions are not clear at present, but if he guesses correctly, it should be the two divisions of the Sixth Army, and at that time it will be the real test for Cao Kun.

"But then again, although the front-line troops have privately changed the orders of the headquarters, according to the current situation, the effect is not bad, the only thing that needs to be paid attention to is the distance between the reconnaissance troops and the main forces. The inability of the main forces to keep up with the speed of small reconnaissance units is a problem that the whole world is facing at the moment, and we will not be able to solve it for a while. In the same way, two regiments were responsible for the supplies of three divisions, and there was a lack of transport, and it was only a day earlier, so those two regiments could barely keep up, but what if it lasted for a week, or more? What should I do then? Cai Ye continued.

Although the front-line generals have made mistakes, their model is still worth learning from, at least the effect is still very good today.

Now that the wrong decision has been made, and the crooked one has achieved good results, then it has been dealt with, why not continue to use this model to advance?

Although the pressure on logistics will continue to increase, at least it can ensure the energy of the two main divisions, and they can be put into battle at any time.

You can't just look at his bad side in everything, everything has his two sides.

"Another point is that we may obviously overestimate the combat effectiveness of the North Korean army, so we must be fully prepared and not even have any illusions about them." Immediately after, Cai Yi added.

Although the North Korean army was only engaged in the battle on the first day, and the overall results were not bad, the problems that leaked out were also very serious.

Even with the personal guidance of imperial officers, it is difficult for them to exert their ideal combat effectiveness, and there are many reasons for this, which are the result of a combination of various aspects.

Cao Kun frowned slightly, he didn't agree with Cai Yi's opinion, at least for now, the North Korean army is performing well, far less unbearable than Cai Yi said.

"The North Korean army is still good as a second-class auxiliary force, although we do not plan to use them as a first-class combat unit, but they should not be less than the force."

"In the short term, it seems that there is no problem, but the gap between the North Korean army and our army is not a star and a half, whether it is training, equipment, or food, all aspects are combined, and it is destined that the further the future, the more the North Korean army will be unable to keep up with our pace. If we look at the current trend, it is estimated that in a week, our army will be a lone army. Even, even the supply may be cut off by the Japanese army. Cai Yi analyzed.

The training method of the North Korean army is a castrated version, and the training requirements for them are not strict, and in terms of food, let alone supply like the Royal Army, sometimes even being full is a problem.

Therefore, this also caused the North Korean army's physique to be significantly inferior to the Royal Army, and Cai Ye also observed the North Korean Army and found that if the Royal Army fought against the North Korean Army, one division of the Royal Army could defeat at least three divisions of the North Korean Army head-on, withstand the attack of five North Korean divisions, and delay the attack of at least six North Korean divisions for at least a week.

This is not a self-consoling evaluation, but a summary of data based on various data, plus the difference in the actual situation of the two troops, and taking into account various factors.

Although the Japanese army was vulnerable in front of the Royal Army, it was still an insurmountable mountain in front of the Korean army, and it was an enemy that they had to deal with with with all their might.

This is also the reason why Cai Yi suggested that the North Korean army should prohibit troops below the battalion level from performing tasks alone, because only when more North Korean troops gather together can they be saved from being completely annihilated by the enemy.

Although this would greatly increase the casualties of the North Korean army, it was much better than being annihilated one by one.

Although they can't expect the North Korean army to contribute much in this war now, Cai Ye still agrees with Wang Sirui's decision.

After all, North Korea is their subject country, and the subject country can have an army, but the army must not be too strong, and the army of the upper country must have absolute strength to crush them, and only in this way can the current identity between the two sides be maintained.

In other words, weakening the military of the subject state seems to add some trouble to the kingdom.

But in fact, it is equivalent to opening up a new channel for the kingdom, if it works well, the subject country is their colony, and the benefit of the colony to a country is self-evident.

"In this battle, we must not only win, but also win beautifully, and it is better not to use any North Korean troops to achieve a quick victory. In this war, we must not only fight to the Japanese, but also to the whole world, so that they will not dare to underestimate us and enhance the international status of the empire. Cai Yi said generously with some emotion, after all, he was only a young man, and although he saw the future, it was difficult to control his emotions.

Listening to Cai Yi's words, Cao Kun fell into deep contemplation, he had been thinking about how to win this war at the lowest cost, but he had not considered what this war could bring to the empire.

The most he could think of was to bring a vassal state to the empire and show the world a little bit of their muscles.

Obviously, Cai Yi's suggestion is not within the scope of a soldier's consideration, because it is already suspected of being involved in politics by a soldier, which is the most taboo thing in the empire.

But most of the time, soldiers can not be involved in politics, but they must understand politics.

In fact, the army is mainly to serve the regime, is it to fight a war not to be bullied, or to avenge your younger brother if you are not pleasing to the eye?

Of course not, whether to fight a war or not, the government's first consideration is its own interests, and the Chinese Empire basically has no conflict of interest with the United States at present, so these two countries cannot fight no matter what.

If, after receiving the order, the commander can quickly understand the deep meaning of the higher-ups, then when directing the operation, he will have a bottom in his heart and know when to strike hard and when to slow down.

Thinking of this, Cao Kun secretly glanced at Cai Yi, and couldn't help but be slightly shocked in his heart, although he had no doubts about Cai Yi's talent for a long time, but until now, he didn't understand why Cai Yi had just come out of the military academy and received so much attention from Wang Sirui.

If one day, Cai Ye can become a commander, then for the empire, it will be equivalent to an extra sharp sword, and it is also the kind of invincible sword.

Cao Kun was woken up by Cai Yi's words, but the face of the chief of staff was not very good-looking.

In the past, the chief of staff was able to convince himself to calm down in the military disagreement, after all, he was a commander and should tolerate the divergent opinions of his subordinates.

But now, Cai Ye is obviously off track, he has deviated from the position where a staff officer should be, and even touched the forbidden place of the army.

And now what is being discussed is how to fight the next battle, how to deal with the mess on the front line, and rearrange it, but Cai Yi took Cao Kun to think about other things, which is absolutely not allowed on the battlefield.

"Cai Yi, is this something you should consider? What kind of consideration does the empire have for this war, Your Majesty naturally knows it, and you need to think about it? Don't forget your status as a staff officer, you must make a deep review of this matter, and if necessary, I will apply to the army headquarters for your punishment. Chief of Staff Hu Ke reprimanded sharply.

"Chief of Staff, I will make a deep review, and I am willing to accept any punishment!" Cai Ye was a little helpless, but he couldn't refute the reprimand of the chief of staff.

Although he knew very well in his heart that the chief of staff did not like his subordinate, and even disliked himself a little.

But he had to admit that the chief of staff was indeed a qualified boss, and he was also a boss who had to be respected.

At least, the chief of staff did not use his status to forcibly suppress some of the objections raised by Cai Ye in the military, but instead adopted many of his own suggestions and tolerated some of his seemingly nonsense behaviors.

And Cai Yi's remarks just now did touch on the taboo of the army, and the chief of staff did not declare personal vendetta because of this, and directly dismissed himself, but only let himself make a review, and if necessary, he will apply for punishment.

Cai Ye slowly left the headquarters and returned to his tent to write a review alone, but Cai Ye did not have any dissatisfaction in his heart.

"Lao Hu, why do you say you are doing this? Obviously very optimistic about this kid, but he pretended to be annoying, aren't you afraid that this kid will mix up in the future and give you little shoes to wear? Cao Kun said to Hu Ke with a helpless smile.

Although he reprimanded Cai Ye, he actually protected him.

"Talent can't always be used to everywhere, right? Only people who have gone through hardships are real talents, what am I to him for this tribulation? If it weren't for the fact that the situation doesn't allow it now, I would hate to trouble this kid every day. Hu Ke replied with a nonchalant face. (To be continued.) )
