Chapter 275: Cloud Ride

By the next day, Ka'b's adjutant had come early in the morning, and had brought fifty sets of armor and rifles along the winding and narrow path of the ridge with a convoy of small trucks.

Noyi looked at the only supply route between K2 Peak and the Devil's Claw Mountain Pass, and he really understood that this place was really not easy to keep.

This lieutenant was born a little white and fat, and he looked a little cunning and sleek, but he could make up for Kabu's shortcomings in interpersonal relations.

"Commander of the first company, you see, these are the weapons and equipment that the border guards have equipped for the ninth company, and of course, the ammunition of the two bases is also sufficient! Not a single shot is missing, do you want to not click it? The adjutant smiled kindly.

Nuo Yi knew this attitude, most of which was exchanged for his own sword at the command post yesterday, but he didn't say anything, and said with a smile: "Then I'll trouble you, Hall, you come to count and arrange." ”

The adjutant then said with a little hesitation: "That, Nuo Yi Company Commander, everyone is in the same trench, and it can be regarded as relying on each other's lives in the future, and I have to give you some words." ”

"Oh? You please. ”

"That's the case, this K2 peak, I guess you have seen it as the commander of the first company, it's really not easy to defend, and it's not easy to attack and defend, so this bit of weapons and equipment, I'm afraid it's not enough."

Nuo nodded, but it was very strange why this adjutant suddenly became sincere, at least there was nothing wrong with these few words.

"And what advice do you have?" Nuoyi said sincerely.

"I can't talk about advice, cough cough, I can't talk about it, it's just that I've been here for a few more years and know some ways." The adjutant was originally a deputy regimental staff officer in the border guards, and he followed Kabu all the way here, and he would not have been so polite to a company commander, but yesterday in the cave of the command post, Nuo Yiyi's sword was terrible, and this adjutant had a clear understanding, not to mention, he came to talk to Nuo Yi today, and there were some arrangements for Kabu, so the adjutant spoke more and more politely, "Nuo Yi Company Commander, please see, under this K2 peak, is the Devil's Claw Plain, this basin is the richest place in the Devil's Claw Mountains, and the big town below, the Federation calls it Devil's Claw Town." , is one of the largest towns in the plains, and there are very rich black market materials in it, if the commander of the first company has some money in his hands, he can go and exchange for some. ”

Dean suddenly came to his mouth: "Do you have heavy weapons too?" ”

The adjutant hurriedly said: "There are also yes, it depends on what price you can afford." In the Plains of the Claw, everything can be sold, it's all business. ”

After the adjutant returned, Noyi called Dean, Hall, Fatty, and Deep Sea to discuss what the adjutant had said, and to make a judgment and response to the recent situation.

Hall first said: "Company commander, we can't hold K2 Peak with this weapon, I studied the battle reports and information all night yesterday, and consulted a lot of information, this part of Devil's Claw Mountain is a place of four battles." Poor and wicked. ”

Nod nodded, motioning for Hall to continue.

Hall continued: "This Devil's Claw Plain, vast but very barren, lacks resources, only has some simple minerals, basically relying on these mines to support the economy, but this plain does not belong to the Federation, nor does it belong to the Empire, both sides do not look down on it, get it in your hands, there is no profit, but it is a hundred times more difficult to defend than your own mountain pass." So this place has become a complete dump. ”

Dean is a lot lazy, with Hall, a typical standard officer, Dean is too lazy to read the battle report, and more energy can be used for battle, so Dean asked: "Even if you said it, such a large plain, with many towns and cities, and minerals, still has a high value, even if the border guards of the Federation and the Empire are divided in half by one, isn't it fragrant for him to collect taxes?" ”

Nuo Yi knew that what Dean said was very reasonable, in such a place, the border guards were equivalent to covering the sky with one hand, and the small money that the big people in the imperial capital of Star City could not look down on was still a huge amount of money for the border guards. The Frontier Guards of the Federation and the Empire can join forces to carve up the Plains of the Claw. If this doesn't happen, then there is only one situation, and it can't be done. ^

Hall nodded and said: "Yes, this is the biggest problem, and it is also our biggest enemy, the actual control force of the Devil's Claw Plains is an organization called Cloud Rider, this organization does not use a very strict government method to rule here, there is no nominal right to rule, but if you want to gain a foothold in this plain, you have to pay fees to Cloud Rider, which is another degree of taxation." And the basic security and management are also in charge of Yunqi. ”

Nuo nodded and said, "To put it bluntly, there is no need for Yunqi to set up a government here, but he has reaped all the benefits of the government. ”

Hall said: "The company commander can see it clearly, yes, but the cloud rider itself does not collect taxes very well, it is slightly lower than the federal empire, and after all these years of development, the public opinion base in the plains is quite good." ”

Dean asked again: "Well, isn't it just irrelevant to each other, what kind of battle are we fighting?" ”

Hall smiled: "It's not that simple, the output of the plain itself can't support such a large scale, and just food and living materials need to be smuggled from neighboring countries such as the Federation and the Empire." When the Federation and the Empire pinch the plains too tightly, the Cloud Rider will take action, in fact, just to survive. ”

Nuo Yi also smiled: "The barren Devil's Claw Plain is because the bay that continues to the south has a very strong warm monsoon that causes it to be very dry and not suitable for vegetation growth, but it is really a thoroughfare in all directions, and there are many small countries to go to the south, but they are all relatively poor, and through these small countries, you can reach the country of Belgium." Yes, it's the country of Billy, which is a financial powerhouse and a small country, do you remember that Knight? Dean? ”

Dean smiled: "Of course I remember, the chosen one of the mecha competition, his luck is very scary. ”。

Nuo Yi smiled and continued: "Yes, so, the Cloud Rider's Devil's Claw Plain itself is not enough to support this scale, and the surrounding Federation and Imperial Border Army can't get half of the benefits, and they are also afraid that the Cloud Rider will bring pressure from the big sitting, so they just want to squeeze his space and starve him to death, once they are too hungry, the Cloud Rider will have to live, and they will fight back." So this place is not a good place. ”

Hall continued: "Moreover, the cloud rider is very, very powerful, far beyond our imagination, and from the perspective of comprehensive intelligence, the cloud rider has a mecha, and, very strong. Suffice it to say, if Kabu's troops are pulled to the plains to fight the cloud cavalry, they will be beaten into dogs in minutes. ”
