Cecil's leader, the MIA, and the Legion's front were quickly sent to Gawain.

Seeing Byron's report on the construction of a temporary prisoner of war camp on the spot and the nearby granary of the farms received from Horsman to maintain the consumption of prisoners of war, Gawain showed a satisfied expression: "Byron is a talent...... I was able to come up with the idea of having those prisoners of war build a camp to lock themselves up, and 5,000 axes solved the problem. ”

Amber, who was standing next to her, couldn't stop rolling her eyes as she listened: "As soon as I heard it, I knew that this idea must be on the right side of yours...... I don't know how this idea came out of the brains of people like you......"

"The battlefield is ever-changing, and only those who are equally flexible in their thinking can grasp the initiative." Gawain said with a serious face.

"Okay, you're an expert," Amber said in a very perfunctory manner, then with a somewhat emotional expression, "but then again, it's been a long chase...... At Gravel Ridge, it took Philip less than two hours to crush the noble coalition, but then it took us more than a dozen days to go around in circles with the fleeing enemies...... I thought it would take two or three days at most. ”

Gawain smiled and shook his head: "I deliberately gave Philip an order to extend the time of the pursuit battle as long as possible - don't put too much pressure on the enemy, don't chase too closely, always intimidate at the range boundary of the 'Persuader' railgun, and also harass with light infantry from time to time, in order to maintain the chase for more than ten days." ”

Amber listened with a confused expression: "Why? ”

"If not, how can three thousand people eat thirty or forty thousand enemies?" Gawain looked at Amber's eyes, "The aristocratic coalition army is indeed about to collapse at the touch of a button, but this is only a gap in frontal combat effectiveness, in terms of numbers, they still have thirty or forty thousand survivors, and they are thirty or forty thousand people with full physical strength and clear thinking, among them, the extraordinary professionals who are the pressure of the formation may even retain a certain willingness to resist, because those who are in the rear of the team are likely not to see the artillery bombardment at all - in this case, the combat corps led by Philip can defeat them head-on, But there is no way to annihilate them all, no way to stop them from escaping, and no way to capture them while ensuring their own safety. ”

Amber came to her senses: "That's why you let Philip run away with cannonballs for more than ten days?" ”

"The mountain people in the north will hunt the red mountain wolves before winter, they use the 'ringing arrows' and gongs and drums that will make a loud whistle to drive away the red mountain wolves on the whole mountain, day and night, they rotate into the mountains to take turns to rest, can force the red mountain wolves in the northern mountains more than people to the point of corner, jumping off the cliffs in patches, and those noble coalition armies...... Their will is no match for the Red Mountain Wolf, and it will be almost impossible to drive them for more than ten days," Gawain shook his head, "Only by exhausting their will to the limit, making them physically exhausted, their thinking slow, and losing their most basic judgment ability, can Philip's three thousand men take over the thirty or forty thousand prisoners of war unharmed, otherwise why do you think Byron gave those prisoners of war five thousand axes, and they can obediently go and cut down trees to build a prisoner of war camp and lock themselves up?" ”

Amber looked Gawain up and down with an admiring expression, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's really worthy of a seven-hundred-year-old zongzi, it's a sophisticated ......."

Then before Gawain could casually find something from his side and slap her against the wall, she quickly changed the subject: "But then again...... Not to mention the noble soldiers in the past ten days of pursuit, I'm afraid no one in the whole Ansu has seen it...... After all, you are the first in history not to accept a truce in a war of nobles. ”

"I accept an armistice, and after they are completely wiped out, or all surrendered, the war will naturally end," Gawain said casually, "and I believe that day will not be too far off." ”

"By the way, what are you going to do next?" Amber looked at Gawain curiously, "The Noble Alliance is completely finished, their lords are staying in the prisoner of war camp on the edge of the Countdom of Hossmann, and there are dozens of large and small noble territories in the south waiting for you to receive; On the other hand, according to the information I have received, one-third to one-quarter of the people of the noble coalition have escaped the pursuit of Philip's knights in the plains, and these people probably dare not return to their territory, and if they wander around, maybe they will become a big one?? Trouble. ”

Although he is a big and unreliable guy on weekdays, Amber has been a guard by Gawain's side for a year, and now he is still the leader of the Military Intelligence Agency, and he has more or less accumulated some experience in doing serious things, which is quite the first thing to analyze at this time.

"Of course I'll take over the land ......of the South," Gawain said, standing up and walking over to the huge map of the South hanging in his office, "but the specific plan for receiving it still needs to be thought through." And as for the guys who ran away...... As expected, after all, Philip Knight has a limited number of men, and it is beyond my expectations that he can let only a few people go. Don't worry about the nobles who have run away and their remnants of the defeated army, they will be arranged clearly. ”

As he spoke, Gawain's gaze moved up the map, and finally stopped at the top of the map.

The Rock Fortress, the northern gate of the southern realm fell in the center of his line of sight.

After staring at the fortress for a moment, Gawain withdrew his gaze and swept over the nobles of the southern border, large and small.

"Send a messenger to the Hossmann prisoner of war camp, and have Philip and Byron escort all the noble lords and transcendents in the camp back to the territory first, and the prisoner of war camp will be held by Wald?? The Knight of Perridge takes over. In addition, I will inform Hetty and all the officials of the Ministry of the Interior, and assemble at the Government Office, where I have something to discuss with them—although the southern border has not yet been settled, it is time to take over some of the land. ”

The war is not over yet, there are still some remnants of the nobles fleeing, and even those nobles who have been captured, there are still many people who hold the naïve idea of "aristocratic war games", waiting for Gawain to negotiate with them, waiting for the ransom to redeem himself in the territory and continue to be the lord, but on Gawain's side, he has not considered "negotiating" with the aristocratic order in the south from the beginning.

The situation he demanded had to be realized, and now that the forces that could be thwarted had been crushed by him, he had to move on to the next plan.

Soon after, in the government hall in the center of the territory, Gawain appeared in front of everyone.

The officials of the government department stood up en masse, and then saluted their lord in awe.

This war has been going on for more than ten days, and through convenient newspapers, propaganda columns and other channels in the territory, almost everyone knows about the two overwhelming victories that took place in Gravel Ridge and the Whitewater River and the "great pursuit" carried out by the subsequent Cecil soldiers, the results of this war not only shocked the enemy, but even shocked the Cecil themselves, except for Gawain who had long expected such a result, almost no one thought that the war in the new era would be like this - their awe, not only for Gawain himself, It is also a reverence for all the changes brought about by Gawain and for this new era.

Before stating his plan, Gawain first learned about the changes in the territory over this period of time.

"Ancestor, the realm is running smoothly at the moment, and social order is as usual," Hetty, as the top head of the Interior Department, reported what she knew, "and the newspaper played a great role - it brought the most timely news to the people, and avoided all kinds of unwarranted tension and panic, especially Mr. Godwin's opinion articles, which were very popular. In addition, it is also due to the fact that the newspapers have publicized the news from the front line in place, and the new round of recruitment of training soldiers has gone smoothly and has now reached the expected goal. ”

Gawain thinks he should be grateful for this era of unenlightened people, the new media "newspaper" has played a role in the territory even more than he imagined, in an era when the people do not question authority, and the newspaper and the people who publish it are "authority" in their minds, so they believe what the newspaper says almost unconditionally. To be sure, this situation was not what Gawain originally wanted, and even his advanced stage of public wisdom happened to break this "monopoly of authority", but at least at this stage, the influence of the newspaper on the people was exactly what he needed most.

After learning about the current situation in the territory, Gawain cleared his throat and spoke: "Ladies and gentlemen, this war is not over yet, there are still some nobles who have escaped our pursuit and will disappear into the wasteland to the northwest with the remnants of their defeated army - it will not be long before we can find them and destroy them, but until then, it is time to make arrangements for what will happen after the war is over." First of all, there is the mass migration of the population......"

Gawain explained his plan in detail, and this plan would undoubtedly surprise and even dumb everyone present.

He demanded that all the population of the southern frontier move to a few major cities—nearly one-third of which would be concentrated in the Cecil region, and the remaining two-thirds would be redistributed around four districts: Hossman, Leslie, Gülen, and Kande.

“…… All the villages far from the cities, the knights' quarters, the granges, the villages and towns that were destroyed in the war...... They were all included in the relocation list, moved to the major cities I just mentioned in accordance with the principle of proximity, and established a second-level government office in the local area, which was led by the officials and clerks trained by Cecil, and recruited local intellectuals for training in the later stage to supplement the staff of the government office; All the migrantable populations in the southern region were moved to Cecil and settled in the North Shore Frontier to form a new urban ......"

Gao Wen talked about his plan one by one, of course, there are countless details and specific implementation methods in this large-scale population relocation plan, including the guarantee of arable land, the resettlement of the relocated population, the consumption of food and materials, the time period for the implementation of the specific plan, the propaganda and pacification work, the details of the formation of the new government office, urban construction, etc., and countless other problems are waiting for him and his team of officials to solve, so what he proposed here is actually just a draft, which is his "request", and after putting forward these, It is the "question time" he left for everyone in the government affairs hall.

"I'm almost done with my request, and now you can ask questions."

Gawain placed his hand on the table and slowly swept his gaze around, but for half a minute after his words fell, no one spoke.

It seemed that everyone had not yet reacted, they first felt the shock, and then exchanged glances with each other, some of them seemed to think thoughtfully and thought of some key points, but none of them actually opened their mouths to ask questions.

They didn't know where to start.

Gawain had long expected this situation, and he waited patiently, and it wasn't until two minutes later that Hetty was the first to break the silence: "Ancestor...... I would like to ask, why are you doing this migration? ”
