Chapter 117: Sending Troops
"Expedition!"
With Hudson's order, the three cavalry corps that were pieced together set out on the journey.
What was left behind was a group of aristocratic officers, looking at the rear with endless melancholy.
The most important thing to do is efficiency.
There is no doubt that cavalry with one man and two horses is obviously more suitable than infantry.
In order to gather more cavalry, Hudson issued a disastrous military order - secondment of noble officer warhorses.
Fighting in the Alpha Kingdom, the nobles had the habit of bringing their own armaments and horses. In addition to the standing army of the kingdom, the weapons and equipment of the war horses carried with them were the private property of the noble lords.
Under normal circumstances, if the commander issued such a military order, he would have to mutiny.
In fact, Hudson's military order also sparked a backlash. But this little trouble didn't bother him.
It doesn't matter if you don't borrow it, you will be directly recruited into the cavalry corps to participate in this rescue mission.
Either lend the war horse, or go on a mission with people and horses. No matter how big the grievances are in their hearts, everyone can only pinch their noses and admit it.
Refusal to carry out a rescue mission, that is non-existent.
The great nobles of the kingdom are almost all in the breakout team. If you oppose the rescue, then you don't have to mix in the circle of the nobility of the kingdom.
"Your Excellency, if we go out with such fanfare, I'm afraid we will alarm the enemy, right?"
Jose said worriedly.
As the backstabber of the Battle of Dacias, he, the court count, had just returned home and attracted the firepower of the families of the fallen nobles.
Under pressure from the outside world, Caesar III could only send him to prison, and his title was also stripped of him.
The black cauldron that was carried for the crown prince is well known to everyone. The physical suffering, naturally, is not eaten.
In the name of asking for guilt, in fact, he was protected by the royal family and entertained with delicious food and drink.
Even Caesar III personally went to visit and personally pacified.
In terms of buying people's hearts, the king is still qualified. Even if he carried the black cauldron, José did not complain.
No matter how good the material life is, it can't stand the tiredness. No matter how good the life of the rice borer is, it is not what he wants.
Aristocrats need dignity, and who can stand it for the rest of their lives with a bad reputation!
Fortunately, Caesar III, the boss, was interesting enough, and under pressure gave Jose another chance to clear his name.
It's just that compared with the previous deputy commander of the expeditionary force, he is only Hudson's adjutant at the moment, and his status is completely different.
"It's right to alarm them, how many of our people can run out without attracting their attention?
Sending troops to rescue does not mean that we have to rescue them one by one. Attracting the enemy's forces and creating conditions for the Northern Expeditionary Force to evacuate can also achieve the goal!"
Hudson explained with a smile.
There is naturally a reason why you can treat a "tabula rasa" subordinate so kindly. There is no shortage of talents in the Alpha Kingdom, what is lacking is talents that can be recruited by him.
Most of the children of the big nobles in the kingdom have good personal abilities, and they are excellent talents as long as they have been trained for a few years.
It's a pity that these talents have nothing to do with Hudson. The people he can recruit now are at most the second sons of some minor nobles, and they are still declining minor nobles.
There is no way, and a lot of places have been vacated after a big battle. The major forces within the kingdom are secretly recruiting talents.
With the capital in Hudson's hands, the "chips" that can be opened are far less attractive than the old forces to talent.
Jose, who is unlucky, is Hudson's most wanted target. It is a pity that Caesar III did not give him the opportunity to implement it, and José has not yet separated from the royal family.
Maybe this series of actions was deliberately done by Caesar III for his subordinates to see, but everyone eats this set.
What hypocrisy is not hypocrisy, everyone only cares about how the king does it. Even if you are acting, as long as you can keep doing it, it is true.
Compared to the resources in the hands of the royal family, Hudson was able to come up with nothing worth mentioning. He didn't mention anything about solicitation from beginning to end.
Just because it's not right to dig the wall now doesn't mean that there won't be a chance in the future. José is a first-class strategist, if not the most top-notch military talent.
High-level talents are rare, and since they have encountered them, there is no reason to give up easily.
Can't dig the corner of Caesar III, can't you dig the corner of Caesar IV?
As far as Hudson knew, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's opinion of Jose was not a fraction of what happened. Once he ascends the throne, there is probably no place for Jose in the royal family.
As for the after-effects of doing this, Hudson didn't care about it at all. As early as the time of the Duchy of Moxi, he offended the crown prince and didn't care about adding a penny.
To put it mildly, few of the great nobles have a good relationship with the king. Either friction is happening here, or there is conflict.
It's just that the kingdom has its own system for dealing with contradictions, and everyone fights in the rules of the game. Sometimes the king is strong, sometimes the nobles are strong, it's like a seesaw.
The five major families in Northern Xinjiang are the best examples, who pitted the royal family with "five labors and seven injuries" back then, and they are as free and easy as now.
If it weren't for Caesar III, they would have been even more arrogant. Aristocrats, originally a group of lords who gave a little sunshine.
……
As soon as the border guards moved, they immediately attracted the attention of the eagle scouts, and they were quickly fed back to the commander of the orc army.
It's just that the current situation is a bit special, and the armies of the five royal families do not have a unified commander, but each commands the troops.
To be exact, the armies of the four royal families, the little cavalry of the bear people clan, are almost negligible, so they directly cleared the rebellion.
The remaining armies of the four clans also have a great advantage. The only problem is that their forces are now scattered.
Mainly misestimated the strength in Hudson's hands, originally thought that he could dispatch more than 10,000 cavalry at most, but he did not expect that he would be able to gather all the personal guards and war horses of the noble officers.
"What do the Scouts eat? Why did the enemy have 20,000 more cavalry at once?"
Prince Butzweig asked, almost with a grin.
The enemies were very red when they saw each other, and they originally thought that the opportunity for revenge was coming, but they didn't expect that the plan couldn't catch up with the changes.
With a record of one to ten, it is also commonplace for the Mongolian cavalry.
But the premise depends on who the opponent is, and the last time more than 8,000 Bimon cavalry were all beaten by Hudson with more than 30,000 Terran cavalry.
With only the 3,000 beamon cavalry in his hand, he ran to fight against the 30,000 cavalry, which was a proper head.
As for the existence of the Knights, it was directly ignored by Prince Butzweig. There's no way, who can guarantee that there won't be one this time?
Purely on the surface, the aristocratic guards recruited by Hudson are also cultivators, and even the armor is beautiful enough.
"Your Highness, there is no point in pursuing these now, let's stay away for the time being!
Slow down the pursuit and throw this hard bone to the Lion Clan or the Silver Moon Wolf Clan to gnaw.
When both sides are defeated, we will come out and clean up the mess!"
Clark tried to persuade him.
Things are different now.
The time to go back is a step too late, the position of the Beast Emperor has settled, and Prince Butzweig is not having a good time now.
Competitors came to power and didn't purge them as losers, it was Alex who was looking at the overall situation.
If there's one more thing to do, it's to hand the knife into the enemy's hands.
When it comes to the struggle for imperial power, there is no room for tenderness.
Looking at the current situation of Prince Butzweig, we know that the army with heavy losses was not only not replenished in time, but also took over the drudgery of chasing and killing the remnants of the Northern Expeditionary Army.
It doesn't matter how many enemies you kill, that's all right. In the event of a setback, it is a ready-made crime.
"That's it
Not good! The enemy is extremely cunning, and now everyone is dividing their forces to pursue the Northern Expeditionary Army, and there are not many mobile troops at hand.
Otherwise, invite them to join forces and merge into one place to give the enemy a hard blow!"
Prince Butzweig said with a slight embarrassment.
As a soldier, he still has a bit of a bottom line. knew that it was a hard bone, and deliberately let his teammates gnaw it, which was inconsistent with his principles.
"Your Highness, at this time, it's best for us not to say anything, as if we don't know anything.
Sometimes no fault is merit!
There are too many interventions, and if something happens later, we can't escape the blame.
Especially if you are now, it is not appropriate to be overly presumptuous. Without the order of the imperial court, he organized a joint operation of the armies of the four clans without authorization, and he was afraid that he would not be happy.
If you're worried, then we're deliberately stray the Terran army and staggered from the enemy's receiving army."
Clark said eagerly.
