That night, we held a big banquet in the city to catch my father and wash the dust! The trouble didn't end until late, but after everyone else had left, Poor Dao, my father, Nicholas, Long Suyun, Lifu Ni, and Chief of Staff Shi Ning got together again to discuss the situation in the future! We are the core of this war group, and we have to worry about all the big and small incidents! As for Long Suyun here, he is a supporting role, and he can do whatever he is told, purely to be a gun! Who told him that the person he brought was not a descendant of the Long family? If it weren't for his sex dragon, he wouldn't even be qualified to sit here!

"What?," When my father heard that the opponent he was about to face was his friend, he couldn't help but be surprised, "Damn, why is he? This kid is not fun!"

"Cut, it's fun, if he doesn't play, we'll pull it well?" Even Nicholas showed a rare sadness!

"Uncle Nicholas, as the number one general in the mainland, do you also have people who are afraid on the battlefield?" Long Jingyun was very curious about Nicholas's reaction, in her mind, Nicholas was always a symbol of invincibility, even a powerful enemy like an orc had to bow down in his hands, why was he so jealous of a marshal who had just come back now?

"I'm not afraid of anyone just on the battlefield!" Nicholas said proudly, and then frowned again and said, "But what that guy is best at is winning outside the battlefield, and I don't have much to do, but." He's very similar to the lord in this regard!"

"What is victory outside the battlefield?" Long Jingyun asked puzzledly, "Is there a battlefield outside the battlefield?"

"Hehe! yes!" Nicholas said depressedly, "For example, the time I was defeated at the hands of the lord, I was completely defeated outside the battlefield, and the most hateful thing is that I still don't know what happened to those damn amethyst bees. I've sent people on field trips several times, but I haven't ever encountered those bees! Damn, are they all raised by you?"

The more Nicholas spoke, the more agitated he became, and finally blushed and angrily said to me, "You have to tell me the truth!"

"I can tell you the truth, those bees really didn't come from me! As for the rest, with a person of great wisdom like you, wouldn't I be insulting your wisdom if I said it?

Tell you the truth about how I will escape Dafa? What are you kidding, I won't say anything about it when I die. To paraphrase Athena's famous quote, let you die of depression in ignorance!

"Hmph!" Nicholas snorted and stopped talking! he knew that the greatest mystery of his life would never be solved!

"Let's discuss what we should do next, right?" Seeing that it was a little cold, Chief of Staff Shi Ning hurriedly spoke!

"Not bad. Son, you say. What are we going to do with Carter's counterattack?" my father asked me with a nodding head!

Stunned, you're the boss, why do you look like I'm calling the shots now?

"I'd like to hear Uncle Nicholas analyze Prince Sisil's possible offensive routine!"

"This kid Sisil is fickle in his use of troops, and I don't have a clue at all! In such a large battlefield, there are two or three thousand miles of horizontal combat, and there are simply too many routines that can be attacked, if not one thousand, but eight hundred. What do you tell me to analyze?" said Nicholas dissatisfied!

"Then tell me how you would fight this battle if you were in his position!" I continued!

"I have two plans, one is a frontal attack, a full-scale feint along the Liuhua River, and after discovering your defensive weaknesses, then focus on breaking through and attacking the defense across the Liuhua River in one fell swoop!

"Not good, this requires not only more troops, but also a lot of time! No one will be able to easily find our defense holes in a few months, and now Carter has lost a lot of mine resources. As well as the factories that manufacture ordnance, the munitions will become more and more scarce, and they will not be able to compete with us! In terms of population, the big man is no less than Carter, everyone is desperately talking, we who have the natural danger of the Liuhua River, obviously have the advantage! Moreover, this is purely a battle on the battlefield, he will not be arrogant enough to want to defeat you in a frontal battle, right? Prince Sisil should not be so stupid!" I analyzed coldly!

Nicholas shook his head and said disapprenously: "Isn't it? It seems that the natural danger belongs to others? Have you forgotten that Carter's navy is the first in the mainland? Their fleet at sea is invincible in the world? If you just drive a fleet to the Liuhua River to help in the battle, we are not opponents at all!"

"Hehe!" said with a treacherous smile: "It's impossible for their fleet to come to the Liuhua River to help in the battle!"

"Why?" Nicholas was finally moved: "Don't tell me that you wiped them all out, and I don't believe it if you kill them!"

"I don't have the ability to annihilate them all!" Poor Dao said with a smile: "But, can I make them enter the Liuhua River?"

"Oh, how do you do that?" asked the father, anxiously!

"I seized tens of thousands of large and small boats on the Yan'an bank of the Liuhua River, and I selected about 1,000 of the larger boats, filled them with stones, drove them to the narrow part of the lower reaches of the Liuhua River, and sank them together!"

"You're ruthless!" Nicholas looked at me in amazement, "This is a golden waterway?

"Cut, it's the gem waterway, if it's not in our hands, can it be used for a fart? Although it has become a scrap iron waterway now, it has helped me a lot, and it is still in our hands, this is the best choice in our favor!" I said disdainfully: "Besides, I have a way to block it, so there is no way to dredge it?"

"It's not a boat. It's a thousand!" Nicholas asked!

"Fishing shellfish one by one, it's a big deal to catch them for decades, and you can always catch them all."

"Well, that's all there is to it, and you don't care about the millions of dollars that come with this waterway every year!" said Nicholas with a wry smile, but then he smiled suddenly. "But in this case, I'm afraid that Sisil is going to go crazy about this matter?"

"Hehe! Abolish his strongest navy at once, it's strange if you don't go crazy! I hope we can him off directly, so that we can save a lot of trouble!" I then laughed: "Regardless of him, you still continue to talk about your second attack plan, right?"

"Yes!" Nicholas agreed, "The second plan is to bypass the Liuhua River and attack along the Elven Forest, but it is better to cooperate with a feint attack along the river, which can increase the suddenness! Occupy the entire river step by step, and then draw a back road! You can also directly raid the troops along the coast or drive straight into our rear road. Cut off our food routes, in short, we can make a choice according to the situation!"

"Well, yes, we should have prevented him from attacking us from there!" I complimented, "worthy of Nicholas, this is indeed our weakness!"

"Actually, I mean, why don't you take the initiative?" said Nicholas with a sudden winkle in his eyebrows, "It was their way to attack just now. But we can completely ignore it, take the initiative to attack, and go over and finish his Silver Fox Legion first! As long as the lord gives me all the horses and battle equipment, I dare to command an army of 100,000 and set foot on the flower grassland!"

"Okay, I'll go with you!" "Father was the first to approve!" and the others looked at Nicholas with a strange admiration. Looking at the mainland, he is the only one who dares to say such crazy things, Nicholas! You must know that the Silver Fox Legion alone has 150,000 people, and the women and children on the grassland are all soldiers. People are in a hurry, and it is not impossible for the whole people to do their best, and it is not impossible to get an army of millions. But Nicholas didn't care at all! No way, people dragged him! No one would doubt that he couldn't succeed, including me, this old guy's attainment in cavalry tactics is so deep that he doesn't even pay attention to the orcs, let alone the nomads on the steppe, and I am absolutely inferior to him in the pure cavalry tactics of this steppe terrain!

"Not good!" but Poor Dao still refused!

"Why, afraid I'll lose?" asked Nicholas depressedly!

"Of course not!" I reassured, "I have no doubt that you will return triumphantly!

"Why?" asked my father, too!

"The Silver Fox Legion is all light cavalry, and there is little threat to us, there is no need to waste precious combat power on them, and besides, I still have one move to rely on them!" I told them about the release of Princess Xiangxiang's brothers and sisters!

"You're yin enough!" said the father.

"I just don't think I'm wronged at all when I lose at your hands!" Nicholas smiled bitterly!

"Okay, okay! Now I'll assign a mission!" Poor Dao hurriedly forked their compliments, and said: "In this battle, we will defend first and then attack, and the focus of defense will be on Qatar City, here I plan to deploy 300,000 infantry, half of them must be elite Qinglong warriors, Chief of Staff, is there a problem?" He is now in charge of all the 600,000 infantry of the Blue Dragon Legion, but most of them are slaves, and slaves have little combat effectiveness!

"No problem! I have already ordered the troops to start reorganizing, and they will be stationed in Qatar in about twenty days!"

"Then, there is no big deal to defend along the river, they don't have warships, but we have 50,000 new sailors! I want to gather the 300,000 cavalry of the Blue Dragon Legion and divide them into several defense areas and arrange them around Qatar City. The downstream Malan City was handed over to the Lanse Lightning Legion to garrison, and the upstream Tihe City was handed over to the Wangjia Guards, don't scatter the troops, be ready to cross the river and attack at any time, they don't have too many boats on the river, if they want to attack, they can only choose one to fight! When the time comes, we will adjust according to the situation! If they dare to go around the Liuhua River, hehe, just let us see the power of the first army on the mainland!" I smiled and said, "Do you still have any questions?"

"My lord, do you want to replenish some equipment for my men?" Nicholas smiled bitterly, "I have been building an army for quite some time. But there are only 30,000 cavalry and 2,000 heavy armor, so why doesn't the king give me anything, how can I fight?"

"So you just wanted to take the initiative just now just to find me to replenish your equipment?"

"Hey, hey!" Nicholas smiled awkwardly, "This." If I don't attack, won't I be equipped?"

"Alas!" The people shouted one by one, "Can I say no? How can I say that it is also my local general's soldier?" Poor Dao had no choice but to say depressedly: "Give it! I calculated? Now I have nearly less than 140,000 heavy armor! How much good will it be for you?"

"What?140,000!How is it possible?" Father, Long Qingyun and Nicholas cried out loudly, barely deafening my ears. Long Qingyun was just happy for me, and the other was a little more drooling, and my father was surprised, and Nicholas was the most exaggerated, and his jaw was about to fall.

You must know that the entire Han Kingdom has 130,000 heavy armor, and the four major field legions have 20,000 each. The royal guards are 50,000, but now. I alone have more than the whole country of the Han Dynasty, which is really surprising to them! After receiving my funding, the Blue Dragon Legion originally had 25,000 pairs of heavy armor, but later my father was attacked and lost more than 5,000, but the captives of the Snake Kiss Legion sent 30,000 pairs, which is 50,000.

At the time of the seizure of the assets of the great nobles. About 30,000 pairs were seized, and the aristocratic families all had the habit of retaining their ancestors' battle armor, and even the retainers were also retained, so the landed nobles could find hundreds of heavy armors, and there were hundreds of big nobles in the thirteen provinces, so this was so many pairs!

There are also some local government stocks, which add up to less than 10,000 pairs, and then there are 20,000 pairs of heavy armor that should have been issued to Huhuang and the Silver Fox Legion over the years when Qatar City surrendered. They were all privately detained by the city lord, and this is still the amount after some of them were sold by the city lord! There are also 20,000 pairs of the workshop here that have just been manufactured this year, and they have not yet been put into storage. It's all cheap! These are 50,000 pairs in total!

All of this adds up to more than 138,000 pairs of heavy armor, barely less than 140,000! It seems that Carter is indeed much richer than the Han Dynasty? The Han Dynasty only makes 8,000 pairs a year, and others make 20,000 pairs a year.

My five divisions now each have 20,000 pairs, a total of 100,000 heavy armor, and now there are more than 30,000 in the warehouse! Nicholas said that he would leave me 10,000 sets, and take the rest! These 10,000 sets are all the latest and best heavy armor, and I plan to change all my father's guards, so that my father will have 10,000 heavy armor guards, and he used to have 3,000 heavy armor guards! Now, he will be very happy!

I have also collected a large number of pure-blooded war horses, more than 3,000 horses, of which 1,000 are best told to be taken to honor my grandfather, and the rest will be distributed to more than 1,000 of my generals, and I am ready to reward the meritorious men in the future, which can be regarded as an encouragement!

At that moment, with a stroke of my pen, I allocated 80,000 high-quality war horses to Nicholas, and let him replace the excess, so that he could become a full cavalry unit at once, and after the exchange of shotguns, Nicholas was full of confidence and assured me: "Malan City will never let any Carter soldiers come over! Otherwise, the lord will want my head!"

Seeing that we were sharing the spoils, Long Qingyun had no choice but to watch dryly, who told him to bring the king's soldiers? Not only did he not have any benefits here, but I also gave him a special warning, telling him to strictly restrain his subordinates, if he did anything wrong here, like Ishihara and the two wolves took them to do in Wana, I would kill people!

He was very upset to listen to it. Since I smashed a stick and gave him a date to eat, I first promised to give him a pair of marshal-level magic armor, and then promised to let his soldiers get three times the salary, and then I sent him away! Their salary must be less than that of the Sulong Legion who has fought in the war, otherwise the people of the Green Dragon Legion will not have to rebel? The most taboo in the distribution of military merit is injustice, and I still have to grasp this major principle!

"Finally, there is the issue of public security in the occupied area, my requirements are not high, as long as they are not chaotic, at least we must ensure the smooth flow of our army's food routes!"

"Don't worry, my lord, we will definitely take care of this place!" Livni said with a smile, "These liberated slaves are very grateful to your lordship, until now, they have been cultivating the newly acquired land very dutifully, I don't think they will make trouble!"

"Yes, my lord!" Shi Ning, the chief of staff, also smiled: "My hundreds of thousands of troops are stationed in various places, and now there is only one medium-sized city in the dying struggle, if it weren't for the adults' strict orders to surround and not fight, I would have been able to take it in one day!"

"What? Is there still a city that hasn't been fought?" The father came to his senses when he heard this, and the battle here would have to wait for a while, but he couldn't hold back the excitement of the battle, and said anxiously: "Son, tell me to go, or I will be sick!"

"Okay!" Poor Dao smiled: "Anyway, now that the political situation has stabilized, it will be a scourge to keep it in the future, so please run for a while!"

I'm really afraid that my father, a battle maniac, will do something, so I should take this opportunity to give him a distraction!
