Chapter 260: Reorganized, newly organized, ready for war

A few days later, a brand new flag with the "majestic snow-capped mountains and blue planet" as the base fluttered high above the Rheinberg. The Olympus Group, led by Ensberg, officially debuted on the stage of the Kingdom of Erathia.

For more than a month, goblin airships flew back and forth between the castles of the Quadripartite Alliance, airlifting a steady stream of food, supplies, and refugees to Rheinberg. And with the input of these precious "new blood", the "New Rhineberg", which was still quite thin, was immediately enriched and expanded.

Of all the "air goods", the one that attracted the most attention from Moriarty was the population.

According to the expansion and arms war plan that had been drawn up for a long time, all refugees who arrived in Rhineberg were first screened. Among them, all men of appropriate age will be directly selected and used as a source of reservists to receive basic military training for two weeks. After the initial training of the first stage, a group of officers led by White will select qualified soldiers from the CCP, and then enrich the original Olympus teams to become trainee soldiers.

However, until they were recognized by the commander and became official soldiers, these "lucky" rookie soldiers who entered the second stage of training were still semi-serfs, but they could get more rations to feed their stomachs.

Those who were eliminated would become serfs and servants of the Rhineberg, along with other women, children and elderly people among the refugees. Although it is not possible to farm outside the castle for the time being, these manpower will be organized into production teams and take on various logistical tasks inside the castle.

Of course, if someone has a skill or is originally a craftsman. Olympus, on the other hand, will offer it a much better treatment and let it go back to its old business. As for the minority who disobeyed discipline or had "dissenting opinions", Rheinberg would also give them full "freedom" and "send" them out of the city. As for what the demons outside the city will do to them after they leave the city, no one cares.

So on the whole, the "new" Rhineberg is like a melting pot. No matter where you come from, what family you belong to, whether you are a tenant or a freedman, once you are sent here as a refugee, you will be reorganized and resettled as "tiny cogs inside a huge clock". Keep running it step by step and honestly.

And the only thing that's a little troublesome is. Hayyna hadn't been seen since she had locked herself in her room, and Moriarty had been silently turned away several times when she had visited her. Therefore, the servants who were supposed to be selected by the "mistress" had to be done by Moriarty, who then handed over the selected servants to Hadro for training.

"White. How's the training of the recruits? How many people can be turned into full-fledged fighters? ”

Another two weeks or so passed. The total population of Rhineberg is already close to 7,000. This scale has surpassed the heyday of the Rayanta family. Over time, however, Salk, McLiren and Ensberg also wrote in droves. Ask Moriarty to do his best to start a counterattack against the demons. Otherwise, winter will begin in two months. At that time, due to the lack of food, the demons will definitely launch more ferocious siege attacks, and the human warriors will be less able to fight in the cold winter. With this increase, the war in Kent will be much more difficult.

"Your Excellency, our ironclad infantry has been expanded and is now at the size of a reinforced squadron, and the strength of our soldiers has remained at least one rank above the first rank. The crossbow warriors, on the other hand, have only achieved the integration of one company due to the long training time required. However, according to the established plan, there will be qualified crossbowmen gradually joining in the future, and eventually a complete crossbow squadron will be built. In addition, the original 'Gun Squad' was officially reorganized into a 'Gun Squadron' directly under it, and was equipped with three new heavy ballistas, fifteen ballistas and corresponding goblin auxiliaries. ”

The heavy task of reorganizing the army made the general leader White very hard, obviously thinner than before, but the spirit was extremely strong, as if he had returned to the human army in the Dawn Fortress back then.

"Very good, you have worked hard!"

After listening to White's report, Moriarty nodded in satisfaction, and then turned his gaze to the goblin mage on the side.

"Your Excellency, after repeated debugging and realization, the 'platform plug-in' of the Iron Fist of War has been basically finalized, and the first batch of five prototypes is being assembled. In addition, we have repaired five more 'Iron Fists' from the spare parts library, bringing the total number of equipment of the Magic Golem Company to thirty. Seeing Moriarty looking at him, Henry immediately got up and reported: "In addition, Lord White also said just now that three 'Rafale-class' ballistas and fifteen 'half-body' ballistas have been delivered to the gun squadron. ”

"Thank you. However, can the production of ballistas be increased? The other three allies were very appreciative of the 'arms-aid' we had received and wanted to buy an additional batch. ”

"This..."

"Truth be told, it doesn't matter." Seeing that the goblin mage was a little hesitant, Moriarty immediately smiled.

"Your Excellency, although the repair work of the main gate of Rhineberg was completed half a month ago, after that, the goblin craftsmen immediately began to work on the construction of the firepower platform at the head of the city and the manufacture of the supporting 'Hurricane-class' armored crossbow platform, as well as the repair and maintenance of the iron fist of war and the training of human apprentices, so our ordnance production capacity is now close to the limit." After carefully counting the heavy work and difficulties undertaken by his team, Henry said helplessly.

"Yes, I see. You are right, let's 'take me as the mainstay' and give priority to ensuring the military construction of the Rhineberg. As for the two viscounts and my father, I will explain. ”

After a moment's thought, Moriarty agreed with the other party's explanation and motioned for him to sit down, and the goblin mage let out a long breath.

For some reason, during this period of time, especially in the past month, Henry can feel more and more some kind of invisible but qualitative pressure on his own lord. It is not some kind of "above to bottom" suppression of power, but another kind of power coercion that prevails among professionals. Henry had doubts about this, but as long as he remembered the fiery red cloud that enveloped the city that day and the fire elemental realm that was impressively projected into the world, the goblin mage was no longer able to explore the truth. Even with him, he now looks more and more like a real subordinate when facing Moriarty, careful and respectful.

"Your Excellency, I would like to speak."

At this moment, Margaret suddenly stood up with a stern expression. Immediately, all eyes were on the werewolf with surprise and doubt. For since the closure of the door two months ago, Margaret seemed to know something, and never gave Moriarty a good face, and even at the officers' meetings, she was often silent, and the staff officer spoke on her behalf.

"Say it."

Seeing Margaret get up, Moriarty was stunned for a moment, and then nodded lightly at her.

"Your Excellency, I request that the 'Wolf Cavalry Company' be expanded to strengthen the squadron!" Looking at each other, the female werewolf gritted her teeth and said loudly.

"Expand the Wolf Cavalry Company?"

Hearing this, Moriarty first frowned, and then quickly exchanged glances with White.

"Yes. At present, our Olympus Regiment is growing rapidly, and various companies and squads have also been expanded and reorganized. As the commander of the Wolf Rider Company, I ask that Your Excellency treat everyone equally, and give the 'Wolf Rider' a higher level of number and structure. ”

"I don't have an opinion on expanding the wolf ride. But what about the source of soldiers? Erathia was not without wolf cavalry to recruit. After hearing Margaret's words, Moriarty suddenly smiled.

"Erathia doesn't, but Krulord does! I am willing to return to Krulord and recruit for your Excellency a sufficient number of wolf cavalry to strengthen the rapid assault force of Olympus. As long as you lend the big cloud to me temporarily. Seeing Moriarty's smile, the werewolf suddenly felt a sour nose, but immediately forcibly held it back, and pretended to be angry and said fiercely.

"What do you think?"

Nodding at Margaery, but not immediately accepting or denying, Moriarty looked back at the others.

However, even Guderian, who usually talks the most, is rarely silent at the moment, just staring at his hands fiercely, as if he can see flowers between his fingernails. And Clausewitz seemed to say nothing as if to avoid suspicion, and his eyes were slightly closed to recuperate.

"I agree with Margaret's construction." After a moment of silence, White opened his mouth, but it turned out to be in favor of the female werewolf: "Compared with the other three allies, whether it is a basic soldier or a mid-level warrior, or even a high-level powerhouse, Olympus has no shortcomings, but has a unique advantage in magical power. But the only thing in the 'cavalry' is that we still have a lot to do because of the lack of war horses and the corresponding combat traditions. Previously, relying on the excellent performance of the Wolf Cavalry Company, we were able to cope with all kinds of small-scale combat missions. But in the future, our main target will be the powerful demon army. Especially in field warfare, Olipis needed an assault force of relative size and reliable combat power to undertake the critical task of breakthrough and pursuit. And this, from the current point of view, is none other than the wolf cavalry! ”

"That's it, why is the light human company expanded, and we dwarves also need to be newly formed!"

As if he had received some kind of clear signal, Guderian, who had just been pretending to be dead, jumped out unconvinced as soon as White finished speaking, and kept demanding "people-race equality". However, the base camp of the wolf cavalry is at the headquarters of Wolfgang not far from the border of the kingdom, and it takes less than a week for the airship to go back and forth. But if you fly to Aveli to "shout" as Guderian said, it will really be a "long march".

Immediately, everyone looked at the silverbearded dwarf with disdain, as if looking at a "spy who had penetrated into our army".

"Well, you have a point. Then after the delivery of the last few batches of materials is completed, the capacity of the Dayun can be vacated for other arrangements. After looking around for another week, and seeing that no one raised any objections, Moriarty nodded, "However, before going to Krulord, I want to defeat the demon legions outside the city first." One is to completely relieve the siege of Rhineberg; The second is to open the channel for our follow-up foreign operations; The third is also to give an account to our allies. Be prepared! ”

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

Hearing this, all the officers, including Margaret's, were shocked, and they all stood up and promised loudly. (To be continued......)
