301 Strategic Objectives

"Stop!" Her Majesty the Queen roared, and lifted the Shocking Wood heavily—it seemed that the original function might have been a jade seal—and knocked it down on the table in front of her, and Ping Pong struck three times in a row, finally ending the consultative group meeting of a group of unruly demobilized robbers and conspirators who were in full swing to the robbery plan, and she narrowed her eyes in displeasure, and her gaze swept over the blank faces of the subordinates who were completely immersed in the old business and had just been interrupted by the Shocking Wood: "What is our strategic goal—in layman's terms, the ultimate goal?" ”

The military group, which had just been discussing with relish, was dumbfounded, but it was another person present who answered.

"Eliminate the war once and for all, so that no robber – whether it is the unscrupulous nobles of the country, the infidels who have come to raid and invade, or the remnants of the self-proclaimed orthodox former dynasty – can no longer touch Neustria, and if they dare to make up their minds about this land, they must be brought to justice, so that all the people living in Neustria, whether women and children or the elderly, can walk freely in the sun in peace and happiness......," said the archbishop, who had not previously participated in the tactical discussions.

"Oh!" Chief of Staff Jason snorted, but he didn't have to cover his face or roll his eyes, because everyone present usually couldn't see his face, but unfortunately, his voice kept coming out, and his tone was quite yin and yang, unpleasant, "You've done too much preaching lately, this is not a church, and it's not your clergy school. ”

"I recently ordered a large bush of roses to be planted under the window, but unfortunately this year's flowering season has passed, and you can't smell the flowers now. But I will definitely be able to smell it next year. The archbishop smiled.

The chief of staff heard the threat in this sentence clearly, and knew that it would not be an easy trip to jump out of the window this time. But anyone who thinks he's going to shut up because of this would be a big mistake, and his voice is even more sinister - "...... You've got a lot of time to spare. I can also take care of flowers and plants-Majesty, why don't I have an assistant yet, others are idle to take care of flowers and plants, and I'm so busy that I don't even see the sun often. He protested.

"Pong!" Luo Yi was so angry that he slapped the shocked wood again: "You two! This is the imperial court, not the flower and bird market! If you don't have anything in the court, both of you will stay and work overtime! Overtime! ”

After the curse of overtime blurted out from the mouth of the Great Demon King, everyone present was shocked, obediently shut up, and listened to her: "Everyone! Our ultimate strategic goal is to eliminate the war in Neustria. It is to make it impossible for any robber to get his hands on Neustria, and all our tactical actions must serve this strategic goal! If the results of our specific campaign are counterproductive to our strategic objectives, then even if the exchange contest is won and rich loot is obtained, the result is a loss! Do you understand? ”

Several former robbers and current officers who had been fighting horses since they were young told Her Majesty the Queen with blank expressions that they didn't understand.

“…… Let's put it this way, if our goal is north, but the carriage is heading south. The better the horse, the more competent the driver, and the more adequate the fare, these advantages will take us farther and farther away from our destination. Do you understand? ”

The amber-eyed former pirate didn't really understand what the carriage had to do with a sneak attack across the sea, but he understood the queen's face very well, and he also understood that she was by no means a puppet in the court. So as soon as the queen asked this phrase, he shouted: "Understood! Then my mind raced. Grasping an idea, we continued: "For our purpose is to drive out all the robbers and break them up in Neustria." It's not just about dealing with the remnants of the previous dynasty, so you have to play a flag and not disguise yourself as a pirate sneak attack? ”

"Exactly! Our target is not just a former exiled royal family, but all the robbers who have intentions against this country, so we have to slam the first one to stretch out their claws, so that the onlookers no longer dare to reach out! Let them know that we hit us! It's the so-called bright muscle! ”

"Understood...... Jason snorted, his voice like a sharp toothache, "then we have to bring our own dry food again, and we can't solve it on the spot, and we don't have any loot yet...... Majesty, this budget has to be redone again......"

"What do you redo?" Luo Yi said in surprise, "Why do you think you can't have loot?" ”

"Your Majesty, if we use the banner of the Neustrian Navy, how can we rob it?"

"Stupid! Of course, the Neustrian army can't loot, you can 'liberate'! Luo Yi still remembers the memoirs written by a journalist who followed the Allied forces to recover France during World War II, saying that "liberation" was very popular among the Allied forces, such as a certain Allied officer who "liberated" a number of fine floral cloths for his wife, and "liberated" many stamps of various countries for his son............ Since the army of the Beacon State in the twentieth century can do this, Luo Yi feels that his army might as well do the same, of course, Yiqiē must be organized and planned, and the soldiers must not be scattered to "liberate" one breath, otherwise there will be more wasted materials than collected, "Dry food or bring your own, this time we have naval ships, and the logistical pressure will be much less if we transport it by water, your goal is the noble castle and palace of St. Omere, you understand?" That's where the bulk of the supplies come in - don't rob the peasants! Neither can ordinary merchants! I'll send someone to watch you! Besides, how many can you grab by robbing the peasants? Liberate a rich man and rob a hundred poor people on top of you! ”

"Yes, yes!" Hearing that Her Majesty the Queen did not stop them from making a fortune this time, the people in the military team were all red-faced, but some people still had questions: "I understand the reason why we are not allowed to rob the peasants, they are poor, and the gods do not allow us to bully the poor, but why are we not allowed to rob the merchants?" I think they're pretty rich......"

"First of all, the shipping space of the navy ships is not rich enough for you to put back all the emancipated aristocratic furniture and other wretched things, not to mention that there is no buyer for them, so it is better to sell them to the merchants of their own country on the spot, and you can exchange them for one; secondly, merchants who traveled around the world, were well informed, and were less loyal to their own country than the rest of the class, could develop into our informants; Finally, our Department of Commerce and Foreign Trade has many contracts with St. Omer merchants, some of whom have shares, and if you bankrupt them all, who will sell our exports......

"I see." A group of bandits who were gearing up suddenly realized.

"For similar reasons, churches and monasteries cannot be liberated by everyone! Anyone who is willing to honor the Neustrian pope and perform the Turnestite rites can be spared - we still need these buyers for our papers. (To be continued......)
