After the Kingdom Council, the Alpha Kingdom once again entered a state of war. However, the measures taken now are - only training, not mobilization.

According to the old rules, take the region as a unit, and form large and small legions in the vicinity to prepare for the next big war.

Each county has one legion, with small counties forming small legions, and large counties forming large legions. The original 10,000-strong legion system was completely disrupted this time.

The smallest remote county, with only four or five thousand men in a legion; The largest royal army has an establishment of more than 40,000 people.

Hudson's Leyt County, which is also considered a large county in the southeastern province, needs to provide a large army of 20,000 men according to the plan, of which the mountain leaders will contribute half, and the other half will also be their own people.

Either other branches of the Coslow family, or the younger brother who followed Hudson. The whole of Lateon, plus half of Whiton County, was now in Hudson's sphere of influence.

And that's not all, the branches of the Coslow family scattered across the country are also a big force.

If all of them are added up, it is not difficult to pull out a team of 20,000 people.

After all, those who went to war with Lord Hudson and finally came back alive earned it.

In addition to those upstarts who went to the north to develop, the family branches that remained in place have also made considerable progress.

In addition to the normal expansion, there are many lucky ones who inherit the inheritance from their in-laws.

There is no way, who let follow Master Hudson to the battlefield, not only is it easy to get combat merits, but the survival rate is higher than that of following other commanders?

Only if they survive can they be qualified to talk about development.

Hudson was able to smoothly become the head of the family and suppress the elders in the major branches, and the most important factor was that he brought substantial benefits to everyone.

If you are like some losers and take your family to the front line, it will be a total annihilation. Don't say that it is good to become the head of the family, and it is good that relatives do not become enemies.

Because of the cost, the current training will definitely have to be carried out in various places, but after the outbreak of war in the future, it is still necessary to find a way to concentrate people.

Unlike the last time it was easy to coordinate, this time it will definitely be much more difficult to coordinate.

Knowing that there is a branch of the Coslow family under his command, everyone will not let people go easily. It's not to make things difficult on purpose, but to get a guarantee for yourself.

Not to mention anything else, during his tenure as the commander of the army, Hudson couldn't let "his own people" follow him to death, right?

Everyone had this kind of careful thinking, and Hudson didn't take it to heart. If you can't coordinate now, it doesn't mean that you can't coordinate in the future.

What's more, putting a few branches under their command can make a lot of nobles feel at ease, and it is actually worth it.

Just as Hudson would not deliberately send any army to death, these people did not dare to let the Coslow family be cannon fodder.

Mutual constraints often make cooperation smoother. After all, the kingdom's army itself is the main force in this war, and the various ministries must cooperate closely with each other.

As soon as the general plan was settled, Hudson's station became lively. The aristocrats who come to visit every day are endless.

The daily entertainment was devastating, and if it weren't for the strong retention of the Ministry of Military Affairs, which demanded that he must participate in the formulation of the contingency plan, he would have run away a long time ago.

"Lord Earl, the Grand Duke of Newfoundland is here!"

As soon as he saw off a guest, he received the news of the Prime Minister's late-night visit, and Hudson was also speechless.

"Please!"

As he spoke, Hudson had already gotten up and gone out to greet him. This is the old prime minister's row, and it must be sufficient.

After some politeness, the Grand Duke of Newfoundland went straight to the point and said: "Earl Hudson, there is no one else here, there is no need to have any worries, just say what you think!"

I have already seen the plan you came up with in the Ministry of Military Affairs. The situation in the Northern Continent hasn't collapsed to that point, has it? ”

The kingdom is not very optimistic about the next war. Unexpectedly, Hudson's plan was even more pessimistic than they expected.

In the face of the orc's strategy, it's quite normal. But the strategy against the elves and the ancient relics is negative and terrifying.

Even in Hudson's view, going deep behind enemy lines to cause sabotage is an active attack, but in the eyes of the nobles, this is passive avoidance.

In the history of the continent of Aslanth, there has been no precedent for guerrilla warfare. Only the remnants of the defeated forces will lurk and look for opportunities to wreak havoc.

"Prime Minister, this war is different from the past. There are all kinds of indications that the countries in the south and central of the continent want to completely wipe out the alien races in their respective spheres of influence.

The elves can watch the alien alliance fall, but that doesn't mean they will sit back and watch the alien alliance fall. When it comes to the critical moment, they are likely to choose to pull the interracial alliance.

How strong the elven race is, Your Excellency is clear. As long as they change their strategy, it will be difficult for the Northern Continent to hold back their troops.

What's more, there are still ancient relics and orcs in the Northern Continent, and once the three alien races join forces, they have no chance of winning against us head-on.

The only hope is to trade space for time, to lengthen the enemy's battle line as much as possible, to increase the difficulty of their logistical supply, and to drag the war down.

The thunderous method against the orcs is because they were injured in the last war, and not only the five royal families suffered heavy losses, but also those vassal races suffered even greater losses.

There is not enough cannon fodder, and the crowd tactics that the orcs used to love in the past are no longer useful. The five royal families did not dare to take a few clansmen to fight for our lives.

It only takes a few battles to make them realize this, and they will fall into a strategic stalemate.

The individual forces of the elves and the ancient relics are very strong, but they have been separated from the mainland battlefield for a long time, and both their tactical thinking and the command ability of the officers are seriously lagging behind.

Ten points of military strength can be played at most in their hands.

What's more, the number of clansmen of the two families is limited, and the troops that can be mobilized are only hundreds of thousands, even if they throw the Northern Continent out, they are unable to control such a large territory.

There are so many noble castles along the way, you need to pull them out one by one. With the little force in their hands, they can't do it for a while.

If we do that, we won't have anything to do. It is estimated that before they can pull out the nails on the road, the continental war will end first.

The only option they had to support the alien alliance was to abandon the noble castles in the countryside and only control the major cities along the way, forcing a passage.

That's our chance to fight back. All you need to do is send a small force to unite the remaining nobles of each country and attack their logistics lines with the country castles as a basis.

If conditions permit, you can also send those experienced slave catchers to go deep into the elven forest to wreak havoc in order to contain their forces.

Of course, this is an option in extreme cases. The elves are not easy to provoke, if they are really stimulated, the kingdom will not be able to withstand it.

If they did not take advantage of the kingdom and chose to cross into the Middle Continent from the countries to the west, then there was no need to resort to these extraordinary measures. ”

Hudson said indifferently.

One will be successful, and ten thousand bones will wither.

As the general of the Alpha Kingdom, he first considered the interests of the kingdom, followed by the continental battlefield.

After a moment of silence, the Prime Minister Archduke of Newfoundland nodded slowly and said, "You are right, the greatest threat to us is the orcs.

There are at least 100 million humans distributed in the northern continent. With the little strength of the Light Elf Clan and the Ancient Relic Clan, even if they were allowed to kill, how much could they kill?

What's more, now that our human race is the overlord of the continent, they still have to worry about being settled by the Autumn Queen, and they will definitely take care of it.

After all, not all aliens are as reckless as orcs and don't think about the consequences in the slightest. ”

It is clear that the Archduke of Newfoundland chose to support Hudson's plan. On the surface, it seems to be a little cowardly, and there is even a suspicion of betraying the ally, but it is indeed strategically feasible!

If they act according to the plan, the countries along the way can completely abandon the cities that are destined to be undefended, and evacuate people to the countryside to preserve their strength.

As for the impact of the elven army on the mainland war, it can only be said that it is not acceptable.

If the major powers in the central and southern parts were willing to send troops to support, no matter how difficult the battlefield was, Hudson would not have such an idea.

How could these countries treat the countries of the North Continent as outcasts from the very beginning. In order to survive, then don't blame everyone for being rotten.

According to Hudson's plan, the Alpha Kingdom will still intercept the orc army and contribute to the continental war.

The countries of the Northern Continent will also attack the logistical supply lines of the Elves and the Ancient Relics, and the specific effect is unknown for the time being, but at least it proves that everyone is still holding on to resistance.

Theoretically speaking, as long as the Terran countries in the central and southern parts of the country are powerful enough, they can also play and fight the dogs, and bury the elves and the ancient relics on the battlefield together.

"Prime Minister, it's not that simple. Whether the countries of the Northern Continent will be able to comprehend our intentions is still unknown, and even if they do, they may not be willing to give up.

Being able to survive from the ancient era, the elves and the ancient relics are not stupid. Even if we can't see it in the early stage, we will be able to see through our plan in the later stage.

There are two strategies before them: either follow the route we have set and go all the way south to reinforce the alien alliance; Either unite with the orcs to destroy the kingdom first, occupy the northern continent in one fell swoop, and form a new pattern of confrontation between the north and the south.

The pressure on the kingdom is still very great, and once the worst happens, we can only concentrate our superior forces first and cripple the orcs desperately before we have a chance to survive! ”

Hudson said bitterly.

The more you know, the more pressure you are under. Originally, he was the only one who took care of it, but now that the Archduke of Newfoundland has sent it to the door, it is just time to pull one more unlucky egg into the water.

If nothing else, in the coming days, all the high-ranking members of the kingdom will fall into this "anxiety".

There was no option for surrender, and the more anxious people were, the more they could rely on Hudson militarily.

Naked conspiracy, Hudson is not afraid of being known at all. After all, a general who can command a million-strong army is the only one in the entire Alpha Kingdom.

"Your Excellency the Earl, rest assured, the kingdom will do its best to avoid the worst as possible. But still prepare for the worst.

If it really develops to the point where the situation is out of control, the orc empire will depend on Your Excellency! ”

The Archduke of Newfoundland said with a cautious face.

It can be seen that he is very frightened. Originally, I just felt the pressure, but I didn't expect that the Alpha Kingdom was on the verge of life and death.

No one knows what those elves think, but in the context of the end of the alien alliance, in order for the race to survive, it is indeed possible for the three alien forces to abandon the contradiction and join forces to occupy the Northern Continent.

When it really gets to that point, dealing with the orcs first becomes the only option. Before that, all the Alpha Kingdom could do was to "lead the water south".

Anyway, the Alpha Kingdom and the three kingdoms of the Middle Continent are also competitors, taking the opportunity to trap them, the Grand Duke of Newfoundland has no pressure at all.

The political consequences of this do not need to be considered for the time being. Only those who survive need to consider political issues.

Anyway, in Hudson's opinion, as long as the Terrans won the continental war again, and there was no threat from the alien race, the Terran alliance would fall apart.

At that point, "joint survival" has receded into the background, and the great merger is the mainstream of the times.

……

As if overnight, war became the mainstream of the continent. Regardless of the countries that have already started fighting, all the countries on the mainland have embarked on the road of arms expansion and warfare.

As the benchmark of the Northern Continent, the Alpha Kingdom moved, and all countries followed suit.

Among them, the Duchy of Moxi was the most active. King George, who was confused, simply ordered to copy the alpha model.

Just a few years ago, a wave of wall footing was dug from the Alpha Kingdom, and the experience was also brought over, and now it only needs to be promoted.

A reserve corps in one county, the strength of which is as many miles as possible. Even the young and strong population that was hidden in the past has been taken out this time.

In the blink of an eye, the army on paper of the Principality of Moxi was restored to its peak.

A new round of reinforcement of the defense line in the border area has also begun. The Moxi nobles, who suffered a loss, went to supervise the construction by themselves this time, and the bureaucrats were never allowed to stretch out their hands.

It has been proven that social beatings are the most progressive. is also copying the mobilization mechanism of the Alpha Kingdom, and the real implementation is the Principality of Moxi, which has been severely beaten.

Principality of Orton.

The mobilization order was also issued at the first time, but their actions were much slower than those of the leader.

Of course, the speed is slow, but everyone still acts. The fiefdom nobles everywhere also followed, and there was no passive slacking.

But this obviously did not satisfy Orton XIX. In normal times, he was a salted fish, but in times of crisis he became a live fish.

"Rubbish!"

"It's all rubbish!"

"What does the Ministry of War do for food?

Why did the order take so long to form reserve corps in various places, or was it scattered?

If you can't do it yourself, won't you follow it?

Don't forget, this war is unlike any other!

There are not so many great powers in front of us, the Warhammer Kingdom has been abolished, and the armies of the Elves and the Ancient Relics may be killed at any time. ”

Theory and practice are not the same thing after all. The Principality of Orton, which had been beaten once, did give birth to a sense of crisis.

But the problem is that they have been involved in the war for too short a time. The orc army was only borrowing from their own country, and before they could understand what was going on, the enemy had already left.

If you want to talk about accumulating experience, then you will have more experience in losing battles, and then there will be no more.

"Your Majesty, you can't blame the Ministry of Military Affairs entirely for this. Reserve training in various localities has indeed begun.

Now the problem is that people are gathered, but we lack the experience of specific training.

In many areas, there have been cases of serfs dying due to overtraining. It turned out that the training of serfs and knights was not the same.

We're thinking of sending someone to the Alpha Kingdom to learn from the experience, or hiring military instructors directly from them to help us complete our reserve training. ”

Prime Minister Jacob helped explain.

"Then what are you still doing in a daze, if you have a way, hurry up and implement it!

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, immediately sent someone to coordinate relations. In such a time of crisis, I think that the Alpha Kingdom will not fail to help. ”

After saying that, Orton XIX, who still felt that it was not enough, continued to add: "Not only do we have to learn, but we should send people to inform our neighbors and let them send people to study as well.

In this time of crisis, everyone loses everything. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs tried its best to convince all countries that only by getting more countries involved in the preparations for war could we have a glimmer of life! ”

If it is so deep, it will directly shock the ministers. Everyone never thought that their own king, who eats, drinks and has fun every day and doesn't care much about things, still has this insight.

"Your Majesty, the comprehensive study of the alpha model militarily also means that we must move closer to them politically.

In particular, the evaluation and recruitment of military instructors has allowed the Alfa to directly intervene in our army. Originally, they were the number one country in the Northern Continent, and if they came out like this again, the countries of the Northern Continent would have to ...... in the future."

Before Foreign Minister Dubus could finish speaking, Orton XIX interrupted impatiently: "Okay, stop talking so much nonsense.

To put it simply, what you mean is nothing more than to say: this will break the balance, and in the future, the Alpha Kingdom will dominate the Northern Continent.

What's there to struggle with?

These are all things in the future, let's live to the future first!

If you can't stop the enemy's troops, before the Alpha Kingdom dominates the Northern Continent, the Principality of Orton will no longer exist.

The principality is almost gone, what do you want me to take care of the international situation? ”

There's nothing wrong with it, I'll call him a flood when I die!

If the Principality of Orton is gone, Mo said that it is possible for the Alpha Kingdom to dominate the Northern Continent, even if it is to unify the Northern Continent, it will not matter what happened to him Orton XIX.

The future will be considered in the future, and the present is the right way to go.

What's more, the battlefield is full of uncertainties, strong countries can decline in war, and weak countries can also rise in war.

Anything is possible!
