Chapter 486: Misery in the Empire
In order to hurry, the Central Army sailed at a warp speed all the way, and headed towards the second heaven at the fastest speed.
And at this moment, in the double heaven, the imperial palace.
The entire palace is in a state of decadence, and the palace renovated by Uncle Bu Jiangzhu himself has become a semi-ruined state again at this moment, full of ruins and broken walls, as if it has experienced a great war, and it has long been without the splendor when Ji Hui left.
On the top of the hall where Ji Yu held a meeting in the past, at this moment, Ran Qin sat on the dragon chair, holding a baby in her arms, at this moment she was full of haggardness, and she had long since lost her previous radiance.
And in the main hall, almost the entire important ministers of the Dual Heaven Empire were here, and they all looked depressed, as if something very bad had happened.
Wenchen is now headed by Fei Wanxi, Chen Ding and others, and Wu General is headed by Jiang Tie and other commanders of the ten major group armies, but there is a lack of Xi Tianxi, Fei Qianyan, Yan Yi and the three generals under their command, hundreds of people gathered together, but the hall is surprisingly quiet.
At this moment, Ran Qin suddenly said loudly: "How is the Qianjin Army recovering now?"
Wang San came out and said: "Tell Concubine Qin, although the Qianjin Legion is now full, but even half of the warships are not in place, and seventy percent of the soldiers are recruits, and the combat quality is not enough, and now the battle ahead has been defeated again and again, and the soldiers' momentum is low, and now the Qianjin Legion may not even have one-third of the original combat effectiveness." ”
Wang San didn't hide it at all, and replied directly and honestly.
He has no need to hide it at all, if it weren't for the fact that his legion was a legion personally named by Ji Hao, and it was one of the superfleets, and it was the trump card legion of the eleven legions under his command, it would be impossible for the soldiers to give priority to him, and now the commanders of the ten group armies, which one is not waiting for dignitaries every day.
Like Yanyi's group army, as early as the beginning of the war, it fought with the enemy, defeated again and again, retreated and retreated, and was crippled a long time ago.
Even his Wang San's group army, there are still three legions that only have a frame in them, and there is no source of troops.
Everyone was in a similar situation, so there was no need for him to hide it at all.
It is so difficult to replenish the source of troops, the most important thing is that it has been almost four months since the outbreak of the war, but the Double Heaven Empire has been defeated again and again, and the myth of winning a hundred battles has long been broken, and until now Ji Hui has not shown up, the news from the palace is that Ji Hui is in retreat, but the enemy says that Ji Hui has died violently and has died a long time ago.
All kinds of rumors continued, even the Twin Heaven Empire couldn't stop the spread of rumors at all, plus Ji Hao, who was regarded as the god of war by the people of the Double Heaven Empire, had not shown up, and the thought that Ji Hui was dead and that the Double Heaven Empire was bound to die was constantly impacting people's beliefs.
Of course, there is also a reason why it is difficult to recruit soldiers, and the territory of the Dual Heaven Empire has now shrunk to an outrageous level.
When Ji Hao first set off for the Monster Dealer Demon Star, the Dual Heaven Empire occupied six regions, including Gange Gold, Gem, Lanhua, Danube, Twin, and Storm Star Domain, coupled with the use of artificial wormholes, the star field established outside the void was dozens of times the size of the star field, and the population accounted for half of the total human population, and the power was so strong that even the forces of the Southern Alliance and the robots could not resist it.
Now, the power of the entire Dual Heaven Empire has shrunk to only one region, the Fighting Golden Star Domain.
The entire star field outside the void had already been lost, and it was not until all the legions were retracted back to the Gange Venus field that they could withstand the enemy's attack.
With the strength of a star field region to support ten group armies, one hundred ordinary legions, and ten super fleets, not to mention the lack of materials for battleships, the source of troops alone has become a big problem.
"Didn't you report yesterday that there are six legions, and the battleships are already ready, General Xitian is urging on the front line now, you send these six legions to support first, the Qianjin Legion will not move first, and wait for the battleships to be replenished, the combat power of the super fleet must be used on the blade, and there can be no waste in the slightest, send it over now, and it will be crippled in a few days, this is a waste."
Ran Qin, who was sitting on the dragon chair, said tiredly.
"Obey the will of Concubine Qin, and the minister will prepare now"
Wang San took the order and went directly.
In fact, this was all arranged the day before, and Ran Qin didn't move the military at all, but just read the arrangements of several generals the night before at the daily routine court meeting.
As the saying goes, a mother is more expensive than a child, and since Ji Yu has appointed Ran Qin's daughter to be the prince, it is natural that Ran Qin will be the one who gives orders.
Now the battle at the front has basically been handed over to Xi Tianxi, Fei Qianyan, and Yan Yi, the three generals who are the most capable of fighting and having the most large-scale ability to lead the army in combat, and the commanders of other group armies, including Jiang Tie, have almost all become logistics generals, and their work has almost become to constantly find ways to recruit troops, find ways to train soldiers, improve combat effectiveness, and constantly send one fleet after another to support the front.
The operational command of a star field region simply didn't need so many army commanders, so they had to choose to hand it over to the generals they were best at, and then they did the same job as General Steve.
Watching Wang San leave, Ran Qin breathed a sigh of relief, these six legions were sent over, it should be able to hold on for another month, Ran Qin sighed in his heart.
In order to stabilize the Double Heaven Empire, she even gave up her favorite scientific research work, and sat on the dragon chair with her daughter every day to give orders, she didn't know how many good men had died on the battlefield because of her orders, she was already exhausted, but she was still persistent, because she believed that that person would definitely come back, he created one miracle after another, and he would definitely be able to save the Double Heaven Empire in danger again.
"Tell Concubine Qin, now that the pension of the soldiers who died in the war has begun to be in arrears again, the people's grievances are boiling, please Concubine Qin decide"
Fei Wanwei suddenly stood up and said.
As soon as everyone saw him come out, they immediately didn't dare to look at Concubine Qin anymore, and looked down at the floor one by one.
Ran Qin also knew what Fei Wanwei meant, and said, "Wait a minute, please ask Lord Fei to send someone to come to me to get the evolution stone."
It turns out that the finances of the Double Heaven Empire have already reached an extremely dangerous point, whenever the finances can't hold on, Fei Wanwei will say this, Ran Qin closed his eyes and knew what he meant, asking for money, fortunately, the Double Heaven Empire has always been in accordance with Ji Yu's instructions, and regularly handed over the collected evolution stones to the palace, so the evolution stone reserves are huge, the evolution stone is a consumable, useful for cultivation, and very valuable in the market, basically the most stable item during the war, whenever there is a financial crisis, Ran Qin will take out the evolution stone to solve the siege.
"Subordinates obey orders" Fei Wanevil received orders.
Ran Qin looked at the palace that had been damaged a lot and was even reluctant to repair it, and once again felt the sound of the tenacious heart beating with the baby, and in her heart, she stood up suddenly, and said loudly: "Generals, adults, please believe that Your Majesty will definitely come back, we will definitely be able to hold on until that moment, and then we will be able to create a miracle again, defeating the cruel and cold-blooded evil tyrants and the despicable and shameless black dead, this star field is our human star field, and it must not be lost in our hands, please support me and support Your Majesty."
Ran Qin's sonorous voice echoed in the hall, and everyone could feel her fiery innocence, and they all knelt down together.
"Ministers must live with the empire and die with the empire"
The mighty voice echoed in the main hall.
