Chapter 143, the military power sent to the door
Leaving Beda City, Hudson had an additional convoy behind him, which he had hired to transport the dried fish.
Just because the port has stock doesn't mean you can't buy it in Beda City. If you really go to the port stupidly, you will be a fool.
The price, not to mention. It can't be cheap anyway, but it's not sky-high either.
In the case of high food prices, the price of meat products is a little more expensive, and Hudson can accept it, not to mention that it is still salted.
How does it taste, anyway, Bear Stearns is disgusted, and Hudson is even more unlikely to be this "dried fish" warrior.
However, this also reminded me that it is necessary to reserve a batch of dried meat in advance for military rations.
If there is an emergency, these highly nutritious foods can also allow the army to support for a longer time.
Relying entirely on the kingdom's supplies, Hudson didn't think that was a reliable thing to do.
It's not that I'm worried about the bureaucrats doing things, but the main thing is that the battlefield is changing rapidly, and many accidents are unpredictable.
If a normal military movement is not carried out, the troops and the grain transport team will pass by. When we meet again, it depends on whether the Lord of the Dawn blesses it.
There is still time to prepare for a rainy day. The trouble is how to organize everyone to conduct military training for the whole people.
Different from a group of county guards, just organize everyone to have a meeting, do ideological work, and give orders.
Hudson, the newly baked military officer of Rite County, was nominally subject to the county guard.
Although he can not be a viscount of Viscis, it is not justified in the end. If there is a fuss, it will also be a trouble.
After a moment's hesitation, Hudson glanced in the direction of the northern frontier and said:
"Tom, in the name of the military officer of the county, I will send you a post to invite all the nobles of the county to come over in three days to participate in the "All-out Strike at the Skull and Bones Society Law and Order Rectification Conference".
There must be excuses after all, and if the news of full-scale preparations cannot be leaked, then the skeleton will have to bear everything.
As a cult organization, it is their duty to carry the black pot. Any problem that cannot be solved can be thrown at them.
The results have always been very good, and slowly it has become a routine.
The essence of politics is like this, even if it is known that the national preparations for war are aimed at the orcs, but the Alpha Kingdom still can't admit it.
The responsibility for provoking a war can only be borne by the orcs. Although it may seem of little substance, the moral high ground must be occupied.
……
"Haven't you found a little useful information for so long?"
The masked man's questioning embarrassed Karlis.
I think when he was in the Holy See, he was also an elite figure, and he was neat and tidy when he did things.
After joining an anti-papal group with the vest of the Skull and Bones Society, the situation changed. From the moment he took over the task of finding the "Blood Moon Horn", everything went wrong.
"Holy Lord, I have checked all the nobles who were most likely to come into contact with the Blood Moon Horn that day.
Now only the last one remains, and the one who is the most suspicious......"
Before Karlis could finish speaking, the masked man waved his hand and said, "Since the target has been locked, what are you hesitating about, go directly to check!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the masked man suddenly realized that something was wrong, and then added:
"The closest to Yin Man's death is the Fifth Army, the suspect in your mouth shouldn't be Hudson's bastard, right?"
Karlis nodded without hesitation.
It's not that he doesn't work hard, it's that the mountain leader is too unfriendly to this kind of strange visitor.
The armor protection system that goes down to the grassroots level makes it impossible for his whereabouts to be kept secret at all.
Not only did the inn have to be registered, but even the visit to the serf's house was recorded.
Several attempts to penetrate the country were met with soldiers on patrol who came and interrogated them. After a lot of experience, Karlis also realized that someone had reported the news.
In order not to startle the snake, Karliss was forced to pretend to be a merchant who went to purchase, and purchased a bunch of iron products.
Even so, he can only operate on the periphery. If you want to get close to the Lord's Palace, there is no possibility at all.
Stealth doesn't exist, and Karliss doesn't think he's cultivated enough to hide from Earth Bears.
If you are unlucky and you are slapped to death by the bear cub just after passing, it will be a big loss.
Getting this exact news, the masked man also had a headache. An adult earth bear, he couldn't stand it in the past.
What's more, it is someone's territory, and once the identity is revealed, it will immediately be besieged by the army.
"Pause, Hudson's bastard is too mysterious. Maybe it's the reincarnation of a fallen evil god, and it's not appropriate to be an enemy of him head-on. ”
Although the masked man said very carefully, there was always a sense of disobedience when the words came out of his mouth.
The leader of the cult is suspected of being an evil god, which is a bit funny no matter how you look at it.
But there is no way, the masked man really thinks so. Others don't know what Earth Bear is all about, but he knows it.
Ripening a young Earth Bear without leaving any side effects to cause the bear to rebound is not so easy to accomplish.
Even the Holy See, which has a deep background, has no way to do it.
Within the scope of his cognition, only the power of the gods could make it possible to do this.
Combined with the words of his own granddaughter that day, the Masked Man quickly associates Hudson with the gods.
Only the reincarnated deity, the energy carried in his body, could possibly pose a threat to a top powerhouse like him.
The older the rivers and lakes, the less courageous they are.
When he encounters a guy who is suspected of being the reincarnation of a god, the masked man really doesn't want to provoke him.
"Then aren't we looking for the Blood Moon Horn?"
Karliss asked, confused.
For this "evil weapon", the Skull and Bones Society has made a bloody investment. Suddenly letting go is completely inconsistent with the style of the cult.
"In a hurry, we're not the only ones looking for the Blood Moon Horn.
Released the news, the Blood Moon Horn is in the mountains, and the Holy See guys will naturally go to explore the way for us. ”
The masked man said with a sneer.
The enemy who knows himself best is always the enemy, especially the enemy made up of internal traitors.
There is no doubt that the masked man who has been in the Holy See is very aware of the way the Holy See behaves.
Even if the power of the peak is no longer restored, the innate arrogance is still inherited.
The style of acting is basically how to be domineering.
The mountain collar is not enough to make the Holy See jealous, and after receiving the news, it will inevitably come to the door.
"Holy Lord, once the Holy See intervenes, won't we have no chance?
The Frankish kingdom said that it was good, but I didn't get the things, so I'm afraid it won't be easy to ......."
Karlis said with fear.
Engaging in the cause of anti-papacy is already full of crises, and if they offend other big forces, their lives will be difficult.
"Don't worry, this is the Alpha Kingdom. At most, the Holy See will quietly send a few masters to investigate, and once their true identities are revealed, they will not be treated much better than ours.
You've felt how heavily guarded the Mountain Lords are, and it's not easy to steal the Blood Moon Horn from here.
If they rob it, even if they can get the Blood Moon Horn, they don't want to take it out in peace.
The main purpose of the Frankish kingdom was to cause trouble for the Holy See. Specifically, the Blood Moon Horn is just a medium.
Essentially, it doesn't mean much to them. ”
The masked man said mockingly.
As the first religion on the mainland, the Dawn Holy See, which should have been respected by the world, was actually reduced to the same as a cult organization one day, enjoying the treatment that everyone shouted and beaten.
I have to say that this is a great irony.
If you really reveal your identity, it is estimated that the Alpha Kingdom's enthusiasm for hunting down members of the Holy See is higher than hunting for the Skull Society.
Not only the Alpha Kingdom, but also many countries on the continent of Aslant are not friendly to the Holy See who loves to do things.
……
With the execution of Caesar III's secret order, the war machine of the Alpha Kingdom soon started.
Under the supervision of all kinds of strange reasons, all localities have launched vigorous large-scale military training. I didn't have enough weapons, and I had to make a few strokes with a stick.
However, military training is also a kind of technical work, and some nobles train in a good way, and most of the nobles' training is like a farce.
The quality of the low-level aristocracy is really not flattering. Not every family has a deep heritage, and only a few have passed on military knowledge after all.
With his own soldiers all the way to inspect the training progress of the nobles in the county, Hudson's face was about to turn green.
I often see a few people holding knives, guns and sticks, practicing and gesturing there, and the rest are clapping and applauding on the sidelines.
This is also considered military training?
At the thought of taking such an army into battle, Hudson thought back to the rabble that had quelled the Skull rebellion.
But the problem is that this time the enemy is a vicious orc, not like the last time.
Compared to the Orc Empire, the Alpha Kingdom is the weaker side, and Hudson does not have the mind to wait for victory like he did back then.
Under the nest, how can there be eggs?
Hudson now also has a family and a business, not the poor and white little knight of the day.
The orcs invaded, and the little knight with nothing could run away, but as a noble lord, there was no way out.
When vital interests are involved, Hudson also has to worry about these "allies".
It's not that there are no honor students, such as those guys in the Northland, and the soldiers who are trained are decent.
It's just that the forces behind these guys are too complicated, and there are too many people to offend, and Hudson doesn't want to get too close to them and cause trouble for himself.
Otherwise, he would have gone over to dig the corners of the Sith a long time ago, and the so-called Northland camp alliance would not be able to stop his hoe.
The same is true for this training, he just said hello to those guys, and he didn't bother to pay attention to whether he wanted to carry it out or not.
As a result, the guy who let it go alone overfulfilled the task and pulled all the young men out for training.
A group of local aristocrats who were valued by Hudson were frequent. It's not that everyone doesn't cooperate, but it's really limited.
No, no, in the inheritance of most nobles, how to train a small number of elite guards.
Although the Alpha Kingdom was forced to mobilize once in the last all-out war, Hudson knew from the words in the history books that the results were not optimistic.
Considering the misery of the last war, most of the nobles who participated in the war never returned.
The people are gone, and the experience accumulated on the battlefield is needless to say that it is buried in the ground forever.
"Uncle Chels, are you training like this?"
Hudson said angrily.
Baron Chels, who thought he had been on the battlefield and commanded the Fifth Army, should have learned a lot.
It turned out that it was purely Hudson who overthought it. The training method of this guy in front of him is to teach soldiers to practice the Fighting Qi Heart Method.
If you have meat at once, add a meal of high-energy Warcraft meat from time to time, and there is nothing wrong with this training method.
But the problem is that the serfs gnaw on the inferior black bread that is black and hard, and can be used as a wooden stick to smash people, and it has to be paired with wild vegetable soup to barely mix it up.
This is still a kind of treatment that can only be obtained during military training or during the busy agricultural season.
In normal times, if you can have seven or eight points full, it is the conscience of the lord.
If you can't keep up with nutrition, teaching the cultivation method is purely harmful.
Of course, the nobles also cherish talents. As long as the cultivation is famous, the salary can immediately rise.
You can't count on Warcraft meat, but it's definitely okay to eat a full meal. I can get a little meat every day, and I can mix it with meat every once in a while.
It's a pity that there are only a few people who are gifted, especially without the assistance of any cultivation resources, and even fewer can cultivate to become famous.
There are only a few hundred people who have cultivated their fighting spirit so far, and there are many family members among them.
In front of him, he suffered from the lack of life essence, and he couldn't take the road of knighthood, so he was forced to change to cultivate the fighting spirit that was easy to hurt his body.
However, the younger generation has now returned to the path of knightly cultivation. They all looked at Hudson and counted on him to solve the problem.
"What, what's the problem?
As you said, I want to train as many elites as possible in the shortest possible time. ”
Baron Chels said as a matter of course.
An army of cultivators, that is definitely the elite of the elite.
Because the number is too small, they mix together every day on weekdays, and the tacit understanding cultivated is the best cooperation.
In the case of equal strength, the combat effectiveness of this small group of escorts obviously exceeds that of ordinary elites.
However, the problem is that the number of people is too small to form a scale effect.
Perhaps a big nobleman like Dalton could raise an army of thousands of pure cultivators, but only the small and medium-sized nobles below would definitely not be able to do it.
"Big problem!
What we need is a force that can be quickly trained into an army and has a certain combat effectiveness, and the most important thing is that it must be formed.
It's like the unit I trained in the last war.
Uncle Chels, it seems that you also took a lot of veterans with you last time, so you shouldn't be tossed so quickly, right? ”
Listening to Hudson's words, Chels was embarrassed.
originally thought that by harvesting a group of veterans, Hudson's method of military training would be copied, but it turned out that the group of serfs with one head and one tendon learned two words - obedience.
The intermittent oral training process was directly ignored by him.
"It's all to blame on those Northland nobles, when they just came over and had a conflict the year before last, I brought someone to help my friends......"
Looking at the indignant Baron Chels, Hudson only felt a toothache.
Now I suddenly understand why the local nobles had a relationship with the nobles of Northern Xinjiang at that time, and the feeling is that those veterans who have seen blood have also been sent to the battlefield.
Fortunately, I reacted quickly and decisively refused all the invitations, otherwise I don't know what happened.
Soldiers who have undergone rigorous training and have won consecutive victories on the battlefield will soon become elite, or at least they will consider themselves elite.
Once a major defeat is encountered, the commander does not appease the army in time, and soon this anger will be discharged.
If you don't have a breath of heart to support it, it's the veteran oil. Playing a tailwind battle is a top two, once the front line is lost, these guys are also the fastest runners.
It's not even as good as the serf who just put down his hoe, and can fight hard with the noble lord for a longer time.
Of course, it is also possible that the serfs want to run, but do not know how.
After all, I didn't have enough experience, so I accidentally rushed to the front with the noble lord, and there were people blocking the road behind me if I wanted to run away.
"Hudson, tell me the truth. In such a hurry to train the army, is there something wrong with the front line in northern Xinjiang? ”
"The Sword Comes"
Baron Chelse asked with concern.
The nobles were not stupid, and at first everyone suspected that Hudson was planning to do something, waiting for an opportunity to squeeze out the Sith County Guard.
But as the news spread, after all the nearby counties issued similar orders, everyone speculated that something was wrong on the northern front.
It was with this terrible speculation that everyone actively organized serfs for training. Otherwise, the orders of the military officials in the county will not be useful in front of the nobles.
"Uncle Chels, don't ask me this, it's just that skeletons will mess up.
The rest, you can guess for yourself, I won't admit it anyway.
I guess you've also heard that after the meeting held at the Governor's Palace, the entire southeastern province was in motion.
Not only the southeastern provinces, but the entire Alpha Kingdom is now the same. In order to crack down on the cult, the kingdom is doing its best this time. ”
Hudson said meaningfully.
The content of the meeting cannot be disclosed, but it does not mean that the facts cannot be stated.
Now that the Alpha Kingdom is indeed moving, as for which cult organization is being attacked, it is up to Chels himself to understand.
Receiving a definite answer, Baron Chels's face suddenly turned ugly. The last disillusionment is shattered, and disaster is imminent.
After a slight hesitation, Baron Chelse spoke again: "It seems that things have come to this point, and it really can't be avoided.
In the previous wars, we were mainly based on the region, but we also had a strong sense of autonomy.
When the war breaks out in the northern frontier, Laite County will definitely send troops. Most of the local nobles will choose to join your command and go on the expedition together.
For the sake of everyone who is about to go to the battlefield together, you should work hard and simply gather everyone's army for training.
If you let everyone play freely, and finally bring a group of rabble to the battlefield, I'm afraid it will ......"
