Chapter 132, Route

It was not only the three "rotten brothers" who were disliked, but then the Duchy of Orton was also assigned to undertake the task of escorting grain and grass together.

There is no way, the reinforcements sent by other forces are all elite, and the troops sent by a few of them are the heaviest.

War is not simply the more people the better, it is better to take pig teammates to fight with the enemy, it is better to do it alone.

Hudson was not at all surprised by the reaction of his allies.

All of them were full of confidence and ready to make a fortune, as if the orcs could be wiped out with a snap of their fingers.

For the sake of one's own fame and fortune, the drudgery of transporting grain and grass will naturally be left to others to do.

Without any surprises, Hudson was appointed commander-in-chief of allied logistics. There was no controversy this time, the command of the army could be independent, but the logistics had to be unified.

This is a matter of principle, if you don't appoint a responsible person to come out, who will you ask for supplies later?

"On the wall, this is the map of the Orc Empire that we draw, the content is not very complete, but it is already the limit of what we know about the Orc Empire."

We can't control how the army sets off, but the grain and grass transportation route must be planned.

"Now please familiarize yourself with Duke Kavadia of the Orc Empire and give us a brief introduction to the specific situation of the Orc Empire."

At an internal meeting of the Allied Forces' Logistics Department, Hudson said with a smirk.

It's also funny to think about it, in the absence of unified command of the coalition forces, the logistics department, which seems to have little power, has actually become the only legitimate authority.

The logistics department, there is really no way to meddle in the front-line situation?

Hudson didn't believe that the coalition forces would dare to fight all the way regardless of logistics. At most, it will deviate from it for two or three hundred miles, and if it is farther, it will not be able to take care of it.

In the event that the enemy sends troops to cut off the food routes, the troops at the front will go hungry. No commander would dare to take such a risk.

Once the grain and grass transportation route was determined, the direction of the army's attack was essentially determined.

"Everyone knows that the Orc Empire has many races and is ruled by the five royal families, but in fact, their situation is far more complicated than this."

Topographically, the Orc Empire can be roughly divided into five parts.

They are: the orc steppes in the south, the Ura Mountains in the middle, the Nikolai Plateau in the north, the Salar Hills in the west, and the eastern coast are mostly undeveloped marshlands and saline-alkali lands.

The complex terrain provides the best protection for the Orc Empire. In the wars launched by the alliance against the orcs, the final battlefield stayed in the orc prairie.

Most of the time ends up where we are now. It's not that the ancestors didn't think about going deeper, the main problem is logistics.

The biggest reason why we were able to continue fighting this time was that the port of Betlun was opened up, and a sea transportation channel was added to the land transportation.

It took ten years to clean up thousands of reefs and create a sea passage for this artificial port kingdom.

"To deceive the orcs and keep this hard-won port. Even at the height of the war, we did not use it, and we did not open it until the beginning of the great counteroffensive!"

Speaking of this, Kavadia couldn't help but smile smugly. In this war, it was he who was personally responsible for guarding the port of Betlun.

In the previous port development process, he also made great efforts. The greater the role of Bettlun Harbour, the more it will be able to prove his merits.

It was with these real exploits that he established his position in the kingdom, and his prestige surpassed that of the other four Dukes of the Northland.

"What does Your Excellency the Duke mean, find a way to seize the Orc's Fengyue Harbor and use the sea passage to transport grain and grass?"

Marshal Borg asked tentatively.

He personally led the team to participate in this war, and he was also forced to do so. The warhammer kingdom, which was devastated, was in a mess after the end of the war.

King Joseph II's prestige had plummeted, and he was unable to maintain the balance of the kingdom, and the nobles of the western faction had gained the upper hand, and there was an urgent need to establish prestige within the kingdom.

For a kingdom that has been half-paralyzed by the scourge of orcs, there is nothing like fighting orcs to boost the morale of the people.

In addition, internationally, it is also necessary to brush up on their sense of existence to prove that they have also contributed to this war against the invasion of orcs.

Marshal Borg, who was old and strong, was invited out of the mountain by everyone. All sides barely gathered 30,000 troops and appeared on the battlefield.

"Not bad!"

Duke Cavadia replied with a smile.

This was discussed in advance, and before the army set out for the expedition, the trio had agreed in advance on the route of the troops, as well as the route for the transportation of logistics materials.

According to the original plan, one part of the kingdom's army and allies shared the task of transporting food, and the other part of the kingdom's army participated in the liquidation of the orcs.

Unexpectedly, the plan did not change quickly, and in order to attack the prestige of the Alpha Kingdom, the Holy See proposed at the alliance meeting that the kingdom's army would be fully integrated into the logistics force, and it was also recognized by various countries.

In this kind of arrangement, if you encounter a high-minded and arrogant lord, you have to explode on the spot. It's a pity that he ran into Hudson, who was beaten by society, and directly pushed the boat down the river to take the next task.

Regardless of what insults are not insulted, the most important thing for the current Alpha Kingdom is to preserve its strength.

Responsible for escorting grain and grass!

When other troops are in danger, it is unknown whether the allies will come to the rescue, but when the grain transport team is in danger, none of them dare to watch the show.

Those who sell their teammates have to go in history; Those who dare to betray their own grain transportation team are only traitors.

At most, there are people in the coalition who are secretly doing some small business with the orcs, and there is no such stupid big force to betray the human race for the sake of the orc empire.

"We have always lacked good ports in the northern continent, especially the east coast area, which is full of reefs, and the further north we go, the more serious it becomes."

Fengyue Port was opened to navigation three years ago, and it is said that the Beamon family spent a lot of money to open it up, could it be that it is also the handiwork of your country?

Marshal Borg asked in surprise.

Don't blame him for thinking so, it's too much of a coincidence. It makes sense that the Alpha Kingdom forcibly opened a port in the northern Xinjiang region.

Without the role of external forces, he has always been a landlubber Beamon, and when he is full, he wants to run to open up a port?

As it turned out, the opening of Fengyue Port still failed. Ports did appear, but the expected trade did not flourish.

On the one hand, the Orc Empire lacked knowledge of navigation, and the level of shipbuilding was so much better than that of canoes. Building a small boat of ten tons is the limit of their technology.

On the other hand, the Orc Empire's poor business environment has persuaded countless merchants to retreat with their strength.

Unless it is the Lord who has hands and eyes to the sky, ordinary maritime merchants do not dare to go to the Orc Empire to do business at all, so that Fengyue Port has been in a state of depression since it was opened.

"Marshal, it's just a coincidence. The opening of Fengyue Harbor was completely a whimsical attempt by Emperor Beamon in a vain attempt to grab wealth from the sea. ”

"Looking at the current situation of Fengyue Harbor, you can see that the orcs obviously lack knowledge in the field of port construction. Otherwise, as the largest port of the empire to the outside world, it is impossible not to prosper!"

Hudson said no.

It doesn't matter if you open a port on your own territory, no matter how much the Alpha Kingdom tosses, no one will say anything.

can help the orc empire open up a port, that kind of thing must not be touched. Even deep down, Hudson thought it was a good thing for his own king.

Perhaps realizing that he had lost his words, Marshal Borg smiled apologetically. This kind of thing can be done secretly, and it must be openly acknowledged to the outside world, at least after the destruction of the orc empire, it can be used as merit publicity.

It's not a question of whether to pull hatred or not, it's that politics has always been full of two sides, and everyone only focuses on the final result.

It is a merit to destroy the Orc Empire, if they fail to destroy the Orc Empire, but let them run Fengyue Harbor and add a financial and tax land, it will be a political accident.

As soon as the orc empire and the human alliance stepped out of the pass, the news reached the hands of the five royal families. Frightened, the five emperors gathered together as quickly as possible to discuss countermeasures.

Here it comes!

The darkest hour of the Orc Empire is coming!

In the face of the bloody revenge of the mainland overlord, no beast emperor dared to take it lightly.

"The relocation work is not going very smoothly, and many mountain tribes are reluctant to move to the grassland to settle down, perhaps because the news leaked in advance."

There are too many orcs who know that the southern invasion has failed, and even if we want to destroy it, we can't do it.

"The Terran coalition is menacing, and the tribe responsible for blocking the sword is not enough at the moment. We must relocate more orcs to slow down their attack as quickly as possible, and prepare for the tribe to evacuate!"

The Silver Moon Wolf Emperor said worriedly.

The richest thing in the Orc Empire is the Orc Prairie in Pingchuan, which is rich in water and grass and rich in products, which is very suitable for the development of animal husbandry and agricultural production.

In contrast, land in other regions is much more barren. Needless to say, the mountains in the central region depend entirely on hunting and picking wild fruits, and can only feed a small number of small and medium-sized tribes.

The plateau in the north is full of loess, which is dry and rainless all year round, and it is still cold in winter. Only some hardy races survive for a long time.

The hilly land in the west is barren and limited by the productivity of the Orc Empire, and the degree of exploitation is very low.

The eastern coast is full of swamps and saline-alkali land, and with the productivity of the orc empire, it is naturally undeveloped.

In this context, the large tribes of the Orc Empire are basically gathered in the southern steppes.

Agricultural production has also developed along the river and along the river. Although the yield cannot be compared with that of the human race, it has also entered the era of agricultural civilization.

It is with these crops that the Orc Empire is able to feed a large population. If you abandon the rich prairies and move to other barren areas, everyone's good life will be over.

In order to make room for their own survival, and also to block the offensive pace of the Terran army, the five royal families started the great migration of races.
