Chapter 42: Kou Huai and Military Reform

"Is it still this far?" Jin Ning looked at the suspension reports sent by the bases of the members of the Liberator Alliance in his hand, and a strange smile appeared on his face.

Although the alliance has not yet stopped the contract with him, it is actually already inseparable.

Jin Ning estimated that the shadow of the Yunzhou survivor base was indispensable in this background. These people are all old-world politicians, and they are quite familiar with this kind of vertical and horizontal routine.

The strength that Doomstar is now displaying is quite fearful of all forces. They will inevitably unite against Jin Ning, just as Jin Ning once united with them to deal with the Yunzhou Survivor Base.

But now Jin Ning doesn't take these guys seriously at all.

More and more new players are entering the game, making the game have the function of selecting areas and tendencies. Players who prefer post-apocalyptic survival will be tossed into some of the wilderness ranges, where there are few players and NPCs. And players who are inclined to this kind of post-apocalyptic war will be thrown into these large servers. And Yunzhou has naturally become the choice of most players.

However, because this game strictly adopts the real-name system, a player can only have two accounts at most, and only one number can be in a district, so the existence of empty shell trumpets is still restricted.

And just yesterday, the game opened 60 levels of advancement, bringing the maximum level to 80. But the cost is also tenfold higher. However, many players saved up for a whole month, and they still became level 60 D-level awakened for the first time. This makes the player's strength instantly increase dramatically.

And Yunzhou now has 1.5 million players, 1.2 million of whom have gathered under Jin Ning's command. Although less than half of the people are online most of the time, it has also brought a group of powerful thugs to Jin Ning.

Because of the heavy damage of the Star Legion and the limitation of the population, it is destined that Jin Ning can only rely on players now. So reorganizing the players again is about the next step in the development of Doom.

"There are no available generals...... Jin Ning knocked on the table with his hand, very irritable.

He originally planned to form seven armies, but the commander of each army group had to be an NPC with sufficient command skills. The first is that NPCs are easier to control than players, and the second is that it can greatly save Freya's energy and make her responsible for macro control.

But Jin Ning took a look at his subordinates and found that he couldn't pick out so many generals at all!

Shi Qiao and Cao Long are barely up to the task, and Jim Reynolds is also barely up to the task. And Mainović can also serve as one. But there are only 4 generals, and they can't make it up to death.

This gave Jin Ning a headache.

It was originally planned to set aside a standing force of 700,000 troops. Each unit has a sufficient number of replacements to reduce the embarrassment of most players not being online during the battle. However, 700,000 people were crammed into the establishment of four group armies, which was quite a test of the commander's level. And these guys, except for one Maynovic, are not used as commanders, they are all used to fight personally, which is to embarrass them.

"I have to find a way to dig up a general from somewhere to strengthen my strength......" Jin Ning knocked on the table and thought secretly.

"Commander! A team of players has captured a high-ranking general in the Yunzhou Survivor Base! ”

"Good fellows! What's going on? Neutral or hostile? "It's sleepy and sent a pillow!

"Commander! Neutral! And he has a good impression of us! ”

Jin Ning just wanted to say that he was red, and he was shot. Now that Doom has a population of more than 3 million, the previous fields can no longer support so many people, and they need to wait for a season of winter wheat. Food can be saved a little is a little.

But since there is a chance to win over, let's pull it! There is just a shortage of generals.

Jin Ning thought about it and decided to send Mainovich to interrogate him, by the way, to review his military talents, and if it was okay, he would dig it up.

After making this arrangement, Jin Ning continued to conceive of a new formation, preparing to take the entire Yunzhou in one fell swoop in the next war.

Yunzhou must be in your own pocket. The Liberators' alliance turned against itself and saved him the trouble of making excuses.

……

First Prison.

Maynović looked at his dress in front of the mirror, patted the dust on the brim of his hat, and walked into the interrogation room.

A haggard, scrawny middle-aged man raised his head weakly and looked at Mainovic, who walked in.

At the moment when the two sides looked at each other, the eyes of both of them instantly burst into light.

"Is that you? Major General Kou Huai? Maynovich said with some trembling.

"It's me! Are you Ivan? This middle-aged man named Kou Huai was also instantly excited.

"Great! Major general! I can't hope to see you again! ”

"Yes! I didn't expect ...... When we meet again, you will already be a major general. By the way, don't call me Major General, I'm just a prisoner now......"

Kou Huai looked at the glittering star on Mainovic's shoulder, and shook his head a little bitterly.

Once, before the war, Maynovich followed Nikolayevich to lead the 1st Division to the then Yunzhou 1st Army garrison. It is stationed here as an overseas unit. There is often a lot of communication between the two sides. And Kou Huai, as a deputy commander at that time, liked this young man very much. He was often mentored and could be said to be a mentor to Mainovich.

After the outbreak of the war, the two armies began to merge because Moscow could not be contacted. Obey the leadership of Wu Guosheng, the commander of the group army.

After the cataclysm, Wu Guosheng chose to reorganize his own legion, wanting to dominate Yunzhou and divide one side. Nikolayevich expressed strong opposition, believing that he should immediately go out and help more people. And Wu Guosheng didn't want to do that at all. He is a qualified eschatological politician, but not a qualified military man. He was reluctant to expend the forces he used to dominate civilians.

So under Wu Guosheng's repeated delays, Nikolayevich angrily led the army to leave. 7,000 loyal soldiers such as Maynovic also chose to go out with the division commander to save the common people. The other 4,000 people chose to stay.

Kou Huai also retains the conscience of a soldier in the old era. But he didn't have the courage to leave, so he chose to stay.

We all know the rest of the story.

Nikolayevich and those warriors became heroes or are now the backbone of the Doomsday Army. And Kou Huai and the others died in the civil war of the human race, or became prisoners.

In the expansion of Wu Guosheng, Kou Huai's army made great achievements. He also managed to become a military commander. But then, a major general who claimed to be Wu Guosheng's nephew came to the army and became the deputy commander. And Kou Huai was named the army commander, but he once again became the deputy army commander in the real sense.

Again and again, this young man made rash and wrong decisions. Kou Huai angrily reported to Wu Guosheng, but there was no feedback.

Until the last time, they were all wiped out on First Street. The young man also died, crushed to powder by a powerful electromagnetic cannon. And Kou Huai survived. Although his heart was full of dissatisfaction with the Yunzhou survivor base, he also knew that Wu Guosheng connived at the dirty things done by his subordinates. But as a soldier, he can't betray.

So he hid in the ruins of First Street. To this day, he was caught by the players in charge of the reconstruction, and he became a prisoner.

The two had a brief exchange and learned about each other's events during this time. Mainovich felt sympathy and regret for Kou Huai's tragic experience, and at the same time thanked Jin Ning and the deceased Nikolayevich. Kou Huai, on the other hand, was full of envy, regret, and admiration for the broken shadow in Mainovic's mouth.

Because the other party was his own teacher, Mainović did not conduct an interrogation. He directly reported the situation and Kou Huai's various exploits to Jin Ning, and then left. and told the guards to take good care of Kou Huai.

……

"Good fellows! This man has two brushes! Jin Ning looked at the briefing about Kou Huai sent back by Mainovic, and made a position for this person in his heart - Jiangcai! It's a big deal!

"Release Kou Huai immediately and invite him to join the army! Let him go for a few days of military training, and then let him come to me...... Never mind! Invite him to dinner at the Daxiang Hotel tonight! Call the commanders of the various army groups and the deputy commanders! By the way, call Geng Pigeon and the other eight players with the highest military merits. Jin Ning thought about it and felt that he should be Corporal Lixian and create his glorious image again. Bringing players with them is convenient for publicity, and at the same time showing that they value players and encouraging them to pay more attention to military exploits.

Now Geng Gege and other nine players with the highest military merits and the strongest ability have become the team leader! That's quite a big deal for them. Let them be quite proud and joyful. This is different from being the head of the trade union of 1,000 people, being the head of the regiment is a real regular official position! Not everyone can do it! It is a person who can personally command a regiment as a regular army and an interstellar legion to conquer a city! It's not a petty fight between players.

……

"This is the Daxiang Hotel!?" Kou Huai is now wearing a military uniform, but there is no military rank on it. He followed everyone into here, and when he looked at this golden place, he couldn't help but feel a little stunned.

But when he saw the various civilians sitting in the hall, his heart was even more shocked: such a high-standard place can actually be consumed by civilians?!

It is indeed a place like a state banquet, but the hall on the first floor is affordable for ordinary people to enjoy, and the top floor is a real high-standard place.

……

Doomsday Times

Saturday, October 20

The Legion of the Undead has captured a high-ranking general on First Avenue! The leader of the base, Shattered Shadow, personally met with him at the Daxiang Hotel, asked him for his opinions on military reform, and invited him to become the general of the army.

"The Last Days" Issue 10: The Invitation of Shattered Shadow and the Recent Situation and Future of the Last Star.

……

"Worthy of the commander! Corporal Lixian! ”

"What a great man! That's it! ”

"It's worthy of my dark gold card - Shattered Shadow!"

"Only I care about military reform?"

"In? Enhance a wave of shattered shadows? ”

……

The next day, such news appeared in the newspapers and spread throughout Yunzhou again, adding some prestige to Jin Ning

Jin Ning asked Kou Huai for suggestions on his military reform plan, which made him quite moved, and his loyalty rose to the ground, and when the invitation was issued, his loyalty directly reached 70! Became a green name. It's already my own.

Jin Ning couldn't help but secretly refresh: Maybe this is the aura of charm.

The next day, Jin Ning issued an announcement on military reform:

The troops were reorganized into five major army groups. Ma Yinovich, Kou Huai, Jim Renault, Shi Qiao, and Cao Long served as the commanders of the group army.

Each army group had 14 divisions under its jurisdiction. Two divisions were directly under the division, and the other twelve divisions were divided into three corps.

The direct divisions are a guards division and a heavy artillery division.

On the surface, the Guards Division was under the jurisdiction of various group armies, but in fact it was directly under Jin Ning. Among them are the players with the highest combat power, loyalty, and online time. The best treatment, the highest combat power, and also a kind of honor.

And the heavy artillery division is mainly heavy weapons - rockets, missiles and the like, pure heavy weapons, in order to maintain efficiency, can only be used alone. Responsible for providing fire support.

The twelve divisions included six infantry divisions, four infantry divisions, and two heavy divisions.

Through the Academy of Sciences, Jin Ning reproduced many realistic armored units. The strength of the army has been greatly increased, and it does not account for the population. It's just that the cost is a bit high, and only so many armored troops can be maintained. And there are few players with relevant skills, so they can only maintain this point.

The Interstellar Legion was pulled out and used separately as a real sharp knife, controlled by Jin Ning.

At the same time, Jin Ning also planned to form an intelligence organization, which was temporarily handed over to Victor, the heroic Wraith fighter pilot. But it is still in the preparatory stage.

Now the military strength of Doomstar has skyrocketed again. It's enough for Jin Ning to start the next step.
