Chapter 817: The Bird of Frightened Bows
The Nuolan Empire, the immortal city of the country.
A soldier rode through the capital on a warhorse, but instead of stopping him, the patrolling guards helped him clear the crowd so that the soldier could move forward as fast as he could.
Da Da Da –
The horse's hooves were like thunder, and the war horse did not stop until the Führer's capital.
Before the soldier could get off his horse, he shouted: "Quick, open the door, I want to meet the Führer, the border is urgent!"
After saying this, the soldier actually fainted directly.
"Quickly, inform the Führer, and call a doctor. ”
The captain of the guard gave the order as soon as possible, and the soldier who delivered the news actually fainted due to detachment after arriving at the destination, which was unique before, and the captain of the guard could no longer imagine what important news he was carrying on him, making this soldier desperate to such an extent.
With the help of doctors, the soldier quickly woke up.
After the soldier saw Führer Erdir in the conference room, he didn't even have time to take a breath before he hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, the border is urgent, the Jialan Empire has 800,000 troops and 8 air forces, which are stationed in the city of ice and fire in the north and the city of black gold on the west bank. ”
Whoop -
Erdir stood up as soon as he heard the news.
His face changed slightly, he stood up and walked back two steps: "Jialan Country is really going to prepare to do something to us before the arrival of the World Alliance, I didn't expect that the previous discussion with Foster would be a good word, and I am afraid that there will be a tough battle to fight next." ”
"Someone. ”
After talking to himself, he immediately called the guards: "You go and invite General Foster Nolan to come immediately, I have important matters to discuss with him, and this urgent report is not allowed to be leaked for the time being, and it will be dealt with by military law." ”
"Yes, Führer. ”
On Erdil's orders, Foster soon rushed to the Führer's capital.
When he saw Eldil's expression, he immediately realized that calling him this time might not be so simple: "Your Excellency, is there something important that happened when you suddenly called me here?"
"The Jialan Empire is on the move. ”
Erdir retold the report.
Foster frowned and said, "The Jialan Empire is preparing to attack us on both sides, I think we should immediately send reinforcements to Ellkia and Kareni City, otherwise the two cities may be in danger." ”
"Kareni's side is in trouble with the general. ”
Eldir nodded in agreement: "But who do you think is more appropriate to send from the eastern city of Elekia?" to be honest, I don't have a suitable candidate in mind, and there are not many Imperial officers who really know how to fight a war. ”
"The lower officer recommends General Tilles. ”
Forster made a pertinent recommendation: "Tyles used to be Vega Saint Laurent's teacher, and he has long studied new combat concepts, so I think the Eastern Front can let him go with reinforcements to defend the town. ”
"Thank you for your advice. ”
Erdir nodded, and then said: "Then this time I will give you and General Tills 800,000 troops and 8 aviation regiments each, and unite about two local army groups to resist the invasion of the Jialan Kingdom." ”
"Your Excellency is making a little fuss?"
Foster said with some puzzlement: "The enemy only has an army of less than 800,000, and the total number of troops we have dispatched has reached 2 million, not to mention that we still refuse to defend the city, in my opinion, there is no need to work so hard." ”
The more troops are dispatched, the more financial resources are consumed.
Raising an army of five million now is not an easy task.
In order to be able to maintain an army of 5 million, in fact, 3 million are self-sufficient in voluntary labor, and if 1.6 million troops are rashly transferred, it is equivalent to raising 1.6 million more soldiers out of thin air.
Even for an empire with deep pockets, this is a big burden.
Therefore, Foster believes that there is no need to be in such a hurry to deploy so many troops, and it is completely possible to wait for the Jialan Empire to launch an attack, and then start to raise a large number of troops for national defense.
"The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, not to mention that the enemy is Vega Saint Laurent?"
Erdir said quite cautiously: "Vega Saint Laurent's best thing is to win more battles with less, in this regard, including you and me, and all the officers, no one is his opponent, at this time, what can give us a sense of security is to press a huge number of troops, so that the other party can drill seamlessly." ”
"I see. ”
Foster still felt that Eldir was a little too cautious, and even cautious enough to treat Vega as a god, but Eldir was the head of state, and he could not deny the proposal if the Führer insisted.
"Then the lower official will go down first to prepare. ”
Foster said goodbye to Eldir and prepared to rush to Kareni with his army as soon as possible.
However, Erdir stopped him again at this time: "General Foster, please wait. In addition to this matter, there is another thing that is a little uncertain. ”
"Your Excellency, please speak. Foster stopped preparing to leave.
Erdir pondered for a moment and said: "The enemy's army of 800,000 is pressing the border, should we ask the western countries for help and let them send troops to support us? ”
"Your Excellency, have you been too cautious?"
Forster couldn't understand Eldil's almost neurotic caution: "In the case of taking the initiative to attack, our empire is indeed not sure to take the Jialan country, but this does not mean that we, as a defender, will not be able to stop that little ghost's attack on the premise of sitting on the premise of five million troops." Moreover, if you let reinforcements from the Western countries enter our territory, aren't you afraid that they will oppose the enemy? The wolf ambitions of the Western countries have to be guarded against. ”
"I'm just saying. ”
Eldir also realized that he was a little nervous, so he laughed dryly.
Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Forster got up and said goodbye to Führer Eldir, who did not want to spend a moment with the new Führer, who was a little too cautious.
And with the order, the empire began to move.
There are 1 million troops on the northern front and 1 million on the eastern front, with a total of 2 million troops and 800,000 Jialan troops facing each other, and the two sides have formed a-for-tat situation. As long as the Jialan army dares to cross the border, it will inevitably encounter fierce resistance.
The movements of the Jialan Army also spread to the West.
The Western countries also believe that the Jialan Army is ready to make a move against the Empire.
In fact, they hope that the Jialan Army can inflict heavy damage on the Empire, so that the Empire can ask for help from them, so that they can be stationed in the territory of the Empire in the open. Now the empire doesn't ask them for help, and it's not good for them to stick it themselves.
