Chapter 308

These people are of different ages, but all of them have the arrogance that a literati should have, of course, when facing Zhao Wu, their attitude is still very humble, because Zhao Wu's consecutive victories are enough for them to know that Zhao Wu will not be worse than any of them in terms of strategy, otherwise the Night Army will not have won a series of big victories and defeated the Snow Army.

While these people were secretly admiring Zhao Wu's ability, Zhao Wu was also looking at them. Zhao Wu knew that these military advisors who came with the army were all well-educated people, selected by the royal family, and no matter what their specific abilities were, they were all courteous to them at the moment. I have to say that the careful assistance of the royal family greatly met Zhao Wu's needs.

There are many generals in the army, but Wenchen is extremely rare. In the future, the night army must be divided into several parts, and these strategists can be used to assist the generals who lead the army. A few days ago, Zhao Wu gave a good reception to a group of strategists and courtiers, and then everyone discussed military affairs together.

Whether it is in a small country like the Night Country or in those large countries, the ministers of the DPRK and China do not accept their fates based on their personal strength, but on their personal ability. As long as they have the ability to handle political affairs, anyone has the possibility of being appointed as an important minister of the imperial court, and in terms of salary, the royal families of various countries are distributed according to the level of official rank, and will never be treated differently because of the personal strength of civil ministers and military ministers.

Throughout the ages, I don't know how many people who don't know martial arts have achieved the position of power, or their fame has been remembered for thousands of years, all in all, in terms of accepting people's orders, basically all countries are based on personal ability, of course, there are some exceptions.

Now among the ministers who came to meet with Zhao Wu, there is a right minister of the night country, and the night country has two official titles, the right is outside the main, the left is the main inside, and the status of the right minister is equivalent to Zhao Wu, of course, this is still in the war period, if usual, the status of the right minister is higher than that of Zhao Wu, which shows how noble the status of the right minister is in the night country.

The purpose of the Night Country's right minister's trip is naturally to establish the rule of the Night Country in the Snow Country, and Xilan City is only a starting point for the Night Country to occupy the Snow Country, and there are many cities in the Snow Country that are waiting to be taken over by the Night Country. As long as the night country has enough troops in the snow country, the right minister can easily use the power of the sergeant to establish administrative institutions in various cities in the snow country, and then consolidate the power of the night country in the snow country through the criminal law of the night country, so that the civilians of the snow country can really live under the rule of the night country.

In the future, as long as the Night Country exists, the civilians of the Snow Country will be ruled for as long as they are ruled. When it comes to the army, the recruits sent by the royal family of the Night Kingdom have been allocated to various battalions, and the training of recruits is different from that of veterans, they need to train longer to become real soldiers, of course, if the war can be used reasonably, the growth rate of recruits can be accelerated, Zhao Wu asked his subordinates to select and enter the battalion according to the characteristics of the recruits.

During this period, the generals of the third battalion also competed for the third-order and fourth-order martial arts, and the third battalion was not very pleasant for this reason, but this situation was no longer something that Zhao Wu needed to consider, Zhao Wu had already given these sundries to the new strategists, and let those strategists deal with the daily problems in the army.

And most of those strategists are also in important positions, and they have a certain amount of authority in themselves, and they are even more arrogant under Zhao Wu's resignation, and they can also be calm in the face of those main generals.

On the other hand, those main generals always feel that they are here to meddle with these new ministers who are not strong in their own strength, of course, some of these forward-looking generals are interested in getting close to these ministers and are willing to accept their opinions, they know that they may have a certain ability in leading troops to fight, but they may not be as capable as these ministers in dealing with the affairs of the army, after all, they are responsible for many affairs in the night country in ordinary times, and they have nothing to do with these generals.

What's more, it was Zhao Wu's orders that those civil servants came to interfere in their affairs, and they even had the right to enforce certain military regulations on Zhao Wu's behalf, and their opinions naturally represented Zhao Wu's opinions to some extent, which was also the main reason for those generals who were willing to negotiate with their advisors.

Only some people think that their own merits are too great, and they have tens of thousands of soldiers under them, and they don't take these strategists in their eyes, so that they don't pay attention to the opinions of these strategists at all, but if these generals know that the strategists sent to them by Zhao Wu are all people who can assist them as generals in the future, I am afraid that those military generals who don't take Wenchen in their eyes will compete to win over these strategists and let them become their right-hand men.

Leave aside the problems between the strategists and the generals, because the arrival of new recruits is somewhat chaotic in the army. Recruits who have not been washed by war cringe in the face of veterans, causing veterans to look ugly at them. However, according to Zhao Wu's meaning, the recruits had to be inserted into the veterans to train with them, although the veterans were reluctant, thinking that the recruits would slow down their training efficiency, but no one dared to disobey the military orders above.

has been stationed in the camp for almost half a month, and the morale of the night army is not as sharp as when the battle between the snow troops just ended, but has a more stable feeling. Under the deliberate training of the general above, the quality of the soldiers is improving overall, of course, the process is very slow, especially with so many new recruits joining.

Now there are a total of three armies stationed around Xilan City, each of which has more than 80,000 people, and the overall strength has reached more than 200,000, to maintain the daily expenses of the army of more than 200,000, the materials in Xilan City alone are naturally not enough, so Zhao Wu has already sent people to deal with this matter. Whenever they attack Zephyr City, the cities around West Lan City that have no troops will become the target of the Night Army.

After Zhao Wu handed over some things in the army to the advisers and a cadre, he naturally shifted his attention to things outside the army. So, through the negotiation with the right minister, Zhao Wu first learned the current situation of the night country, as well as the situation between the royal family of the night country and the allies, this point, the right minister of the night country brought more accurate information to Zhao Wu, the five countries are in the same vein, and the alliance relationship is extremely stable, but the situation facing the five countries is very poor, and almost every country is dealing with the attack of the army of the neighboring country.

For the five nations, the war they faced was a great test. If one country is breached, the other four countries will lack a boost. Judging from the current situation, the alliance is already the trend of the times, unless the Night Country wants to become a weapon in the face of those great powers, otherwise there is only resistance at the moment.

Regarding this point, the night country had already conveyed to Zhao Wu that if he did not fight for hegemony in chaos, he would crush and perish in the chaos. Zhao Wu did not have a different opinion on the resistance chosen by the five countries, and only hoped that the five countries that formed the alliance could hold on until their strength grew. The war in the Northern Regions may not end in a unified way in the end, but it is certain that once that time comes, the countries that can still survive are all strong countries, and Zhao Wu's idea is no different from the beginning, and it will be much better to be able to actively participate in the world's disputes than to passively participate in the world's disputes.

There is a lot of news that the right minister brought to Zhao Wu, involving many aspects, of course, there are still certain limitations. There are more than a dozen countries between the five countries such as the night country and the Qingyuan powers, and how many of them are specifically attributed to the Qingyuan powers, the right minister is not clear, this will affect the five countries to continue to win over the alliance, in case the country they want to win over is the gap between the big powers, then the formation of the alliance will undoubtedly expose the information of the five countries, once the military information is revealed, it will bring unspeakable hidden dangers to the five countries, but it is a way to strengthen the alliance by winning over the surrounding countries, and the five countries cannot abandon this point regardless of this.

From the right minister, Zhao Wu learned that the five countries were trying to win over the forces of all parties, and it seems that the five countries did not really want to push straight to the borders of those big countries, Zhao Wu believed that this kind of foreign policy can bring a certain amount of help to the five countries if it is not used properly, and it may bring certain dangers to the five countries if it is not used properly. The issue of risk is especially acute during war, but it is precisely these risks that add some gambling to the war.

Putting aside the general trend, at the moment, Zhao Wu is more concerned about things closer to the Night Kingdom. The news brought by the right minister also has a part about the Snow Country's neighbor Gu Country, which is not an ally of the Night Country, and its land area is larger than that of the Night Country.

Like the Snow Country, the Valley Country is working hard for the Qingyuan Great Power, during the Night Country's attack on the Snow Country, the Gu Country's army is fighting against the Night Country's neighbor Lei Country, the terrain of the Thunder Country is different from the Night Country, and its western border is completely bordered by the Night Country and the border of another ally, so the Thunder Country can concentrate a large number of troops in the east to fight against the Valley Country, originally the size of the two countries is comparable, and during the war, the military strength of the two countries is the same, so the suspense of the war at the beginning is naturally great.

It's just that because the Lei country does not have an excellent commander or the commander of the Gu country is too mediocre, the war between the two countries has been in a state of stalemate. In addition to Zhao Wu's concern about the war between the two countries, there is another point, that is, since the Gu Country and the Snow Country are both vassal states of the Qingyuan Great Power, the two countries are likely to help each other.

If the Qingyuan country sends troops from the valley country, then it will be a little difficult for the night country to completely annex the snow country, and the battlefield will be expanded to the valley country, of course, even if the valley country does not support the snow country, those countries behind the snow country may still have troops to help, and the probability of all unexpected situations is very high, what Zhao Wu can do is to write a letter to ask the thunder country to put full pressure on the snow country before the decisive battle with the snow country, so that the valley country cannot help the snow country alone.

According to Zhao Wu's speculation, it is very likely that there will be a war between the Night Country and the Gu Kingdom, and the three-month truce that was set before is actually based on the situation of the Thunder Country.
