In Osmanthus City, the conference room of the General Staff Department of the Southern Theater Command, a routine enemy situation analysis meeting was being held at this time, and Charles, a midshipman staff officer who had just arrived in office, was sitting in the corner and taking minutes of the meeting.

Charles returned here the day before yesterday, and he first took a train from the Rurik Kingdom to the Elven Tree Sea to ship explosives through the forest sea to Durian City, and then transferred to Osmanthus City, where the Southern Theater Command was stationed. This time he didn't have a special train car, only a sleeper ticket.

Engels once said, "Officers who do not understand the business of their profession do more harm in the staff department than in any other department." ”

In the General Staff, Charles, a relational who has not experienced systematic military education, will naturally not be placed in a critical position, and now his job is the same as that of other trainee staff officers, doing some miscellaneous work.

Miscellaneous work also has the advantage of doing miscellaneous work, and for Meng Xin, in the process of doing miscellaneous work, you can be familiar with the structure and operation of the entire staff department.

Charles, a relation, got the job of taking minutes. Although the meeting recorder is only a small transparent person when the meeting is held, he appears many times in front of the leader, and he is familiar with it for decades in front of the leader, and maybe one day the opportunity will come.

Charles was not here to be familiar, he was stuffed by Elizabeth as a note-taker, mainly because Elizabeth asked him to learn how the staff officers analyzed, thought and solved problems when he was taking minutes.

According to the "99 Tips for Educating Children", it is very important to cultivate children's logical thinking skills, and the process of discussing, researching, analyzing problems and making plans in various meetings is undoubtedly a learning process for Charles.

Fortunately, these staff officers are not showa, otherwise Charles would be finished.

In the time that Charles was away, the situation on the front line changed unexpectedly.

Beginning in February, a large number of fish-man civilians suddenly came ashore and they built a large number of settlements in the occupied territories and began to clear land around them.

At the same time, there are a number of fish-men who appear to be local armed forces, and these fish-men are in charge of the civilians.

After a long period of careful reconnaissance, some prisoners were captured and interrogated, and now more and more information is gathered in the hands of the intelligence services.

In the previous battle, "Jie 100,000" was seriously injured and has not yet recovered.

At the same time, the nobles of the kingdom of Osme took the opportunity to put pressure on the military headquarters, trying to take the best part of the land before Jeni gave the land that had just been occupied on the shore to the officers.

What the internal struggle in the kingdom of Osme was, it is not known on the elves' side, they did not capture a weighty prisoner.

Just like the protagonist always has a group of pig teammates who are dragging their feet, Jenny is next pitted by a group of pig teammates.

The nobles quickly divided the cake, and then sent their serfs and private soldiers ashore to establish settlements, and then pretended to reclaim the land around it.

Although the fish-people are not familiar with how to farm on land, they still know how to get rid of weeds first.

In mid-February, just as Jenny was returning from injury, a cardinal and a team of paladins came to the Temple of the Sea and invited Jenny to the temple headquarters for a hearing.

Without the support of a strong Jenny, many powerful young Zhuang officers died in the war in the previous two years, and the military department with strong foreign and middle cadres was quickly defeated.

The officers, who had been assured by Jenny that they were ready to get a share of the land, showed strong dissatisfaction, so they began to make all kinds of small moves.

One piece of information that caught the attention of the staff was that three days earlier, a group of elves fighting behind enemy lines had set fire to a granary in a settlement, and when they had just retreated, they were confronted by a patrol of the Fish-Man Army, only to see them as if they had been spotted, but turned around and ran to the settlement to "salvage food".

The patrol did go to rescue the burning food, but they transported the rescued food back to their base, and left a basket of oysters on the side of the road for the elf team on the way.

While recording the content of the meeting, Charles complained in his heart that if there was no Ocean Temple behind this, he would have eaten the record book in his hand.

Anyway, parchment should be able to be eaten.

The staff officers in the conference room suddenly came to their senses, and it seemed that the enemy was fighting among themselves because of the uneven distribution of spoils, and it would be much easier for such an enemy to clean up.

Then Charles watched as the topic of the meeting shifted from destroying the enemy to sowing discord.

One of the staff officers said: "I have learned from the captured civilians of Osm that our Highness is quite famous among the people. Let's see if you can marry the daughter of the local nobles in Osmu, so as to provoke the local nobles and the military ......"

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......" Charles in the corner reminded the guy with a barrage of coughs, and the client was sitting there.

The staff officer was a little embarrassed, he forgot that it was Charles who took the minutes today.

He asked tentatively, "Haha, Your Highness is here, what a coincidence." What do you think of this proposal?"

Charles's face darkened, and he said, "I heard that there are going to be several large slime farms in Durian City, and I will recommend you to Her Majesty the Queen to be the supervisor there." ”

The staff officer scratched the back of his head, then made a staircase for himself, "Oh, Your Highness, you're still young, so forget it." ”

He was afraid that Charles would really hug the queen's thigh and cry and ask to transfer him to raise slimes, and that would be the end of it.

After this episode, the group focused on the internal situation of the Osmus Kingdom and analyzed the deep-seated reasons for this situation.

Charles's hands never stopped, and at the end of the day's meetings, he felt his hands more tired than when he came down from the battlefield.

However, for him, the meeting was very rewarding.

In front of a group of hundreds of years old foxes, the contradiction between the army of the Osmus Kingdom and the local nobility was analyzed thoroughly.

The contradiction between the two sides is nothing more than that the local nobles have been dissatisfied with the high military spending for many years, and now that the military has brought down the land, the local nobles feel that they have paid so many taxes before, and it is time to return to blood.

And the military is reluctant to hand over the land in their hands, why do you want the land they have fought so hard to get it from the nobles who are enjoying themselves in the back.

The Kingdom of Osme did not form a mechanism of cooperation between local nobles and the military like the Kingdom of Bischberg and other human kingdoms.

The local nobles on the other side of the kingdom of Bischberg would have their land taken away by the enemies of the neighboring countries if they did not support the military, so they were willing to support the military.

However, the elves could not occupy the underwater lands of the Kingdom of Othme, and for the local nobles of Othme, the military was a bottomless pit that only knew how to ask them for money and supplies but did not reciprocate.

In this case, it is strange that both parties can share the spoils with great joy.

From the perspective of the Osmus Kingdom, Jenny's approach of tilting his interests towards the army is undoubtedly correct, because the new land has not yet been able to gain a foothold and still needs a large number of troops to defend, so distributing the largest cake to the army can undoubtedly better protect this new cake, and the cake can continue to grow bigger.

It was just a series of accidents that caused Jenny to lose control of the situation for a while, and the local nobles who began to blush after seeing the benefits took the opportunity to extend their hands to pick the fruit.

Charles felt that the defeat of the Kingdom of Osme in this situation was a matter of time.
