Chapter 82 Announcement
Calle looked at the content of the announcement in his hand, and couldn't help frowning, this is a war readiness announcement issued by the Ron Empire, the first thing that catches his eye is a bunch of data, for ordinary people, those data are just numbers, but as the prince of the Kotler Empire, he is very sensitive to the data changes of the three major human empires.
"Faramor, do you know what this one-percent increase in military spending means?"
"The number of troops has increased?" The announcement was brought back by Faramir, since the Second Highness sent Lin to the orc Alf's residence, the next day he saw the soldiers in charge of patrolling the street issuing this kind of announcement, almost everyone had a share, so Faramir directly brought the announcement back.
After listening to the military judge's words, Calle couldn't help but shake his head and smile: "You have too narrow a vision of things, do you know the strength of the regular army of the Ron Empire?"
"I think it should be two million, plus the private army, it should be more than that. Faramir lowered his head and recalled the previous information about the Ron Empire, he had been by the eldest prince's side for a long time, and he still knew some of this information, especially the prince's perennial campaign, and he knew more about the military strength of the three empires.
But after he finished speaking, he saw Caleb shaking his head for a while, as if he didn't approve, could it be that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knew that it was not the real data?
"Don't doubt it, what you know is true on the surface, but the real strength of the Ron Empire is not only the two million regular troops, plus nearly two million private troops, in fact, the military strength of the Ron Empire should be about twice the number of the imperial army. Calle said leisurely, but Faramir was dumbfounded.
The military strength of the Ron Empire and the Binis Empire among the three major empires, the military judge does not know, but the military strength of the Kotler Empire is better than anyone else, the total strength of the Kotler Empire plus the private army should be about six million, if it is really like His Highness Kahler said, then the army of the Ron Empire has exceeded 10 million!
This should be the combined forces of the Kotler Empire and the Binis Empire!
So if it is really as stated in the announcement, the military expenditure will be increased by one percent, and this increase in troops may already be in the tens of thousands, and the Ron Empire already has more than 10 million troops, so why should it increase military spending now?
Faramir suddenly felt a chill in his body, the battle between him and the Orc Empire in the Cardin Hills Realm had already made him feel how far the Kotler Empire had declined, no matter how he thought about it, he would never have thought that the Ron Empire, which was adjacent to the Empire, had developed to such a point, but then Faramir thought of one more thing, since the second prince had already known, why didn't he report to the empire earlier, if he didn't launch the Battle of the Cardin Hills Realm, wouldn't the empire be able to save an additional 600,000 troops, and it was already a little strange when the eldest prince urged himself to lead the troops, and he didn't pay attention to it at that timeγ
Now that I think about it, it seems to be something else!
"Faramah, what do you think of the combat strength of the imperial army, not to mention the 600,000, just the regular army in the country, if it fights again with the orc empire in the Cardan Hills realm, what is the victory?"
Despite the military judge's puzzlingness, after comparison, he gave the result, "Under the same conditions, the losses of our army should be halved." This is his conservative estimate, in fact, after experiencing that war, Faramir has a deep understanding of the strength of the orc empire, in the early days of the war, even the regular army should lose a certain degree of strength because of too much pride, because once the orcs use tactics, the unexpected terrans will naturally not think that the losses will be even greater, and the halving of losses is indeed a conservative estimate.
Caleb nodded in satisfaction, the asymmetry of information would naturally lead to different results, and it was a sign of talent for Farramor to draw this conclusion based on the information he had in his hands, but was it really the case?
I thought that the second prince was satisfied with his answer, but he didn't want Caller's words to directly shatter the military judge's thoughts.
"According to the information you have compiled and gathered, half or sixty percent of the battle losses are already the highest losses of the imperial regular army, but what I want to tell you is that if all the regular army starts a war, the imperial regular army will win a big victory without any suspense, and the battle loss is only one percent, do you believe it?"
Subconsciously Faramir shook his head, he didn't know the reason why His Royal Highness the Second Prince said this, and it was normal not to believe it, but since he already knew that there would be such a result, why did he send those 600,000 private troops to fight, isn't this self-destructive strength and face?
The military judge's reaction was seen by Kahler, knowing what he was thinking, but Kahler did not explain any further, but continued to read the announcement, what is the imperial strategy, Farramor is not qualified to know, although he is assisting himself now, but this kind of thing itself has nothing to do with him, so the less he knows, the better.
"Reduced the taxes and fees of seventy percent of the vassals, and sent the regular army of the empire to conduct military training. β
Cale's gaze stared at this announcement for a long time, and his face began to become cloudy, compared to the military expenditure issue that he had focused on before, this announcement was a little confusing, is the Ron Empire trying to launch a full-scale war on the mainland? Since ancient times, the taxes and fees of vassal countries have been a slightly important regulation in the three empires, and the taxes and fees are in disguise the protection fees levied by large countries on small countries to protect small countries from the intervention of other countries, but wars between two vassal states in the same large empire will not be protected, unless one of the two countries can get the support of a large empire, otherwise even if the country is destroyed, it will not be protected.
Faramir followed the gaze of the second prince and saw this, and he was equally puzzled, since he had already decided to increase military spending, why did he need to reduce or exempt the taxes and fees of the vassal states, and where should this money come from?
It is rumored that the emperor of the Ron Empire does not show his face all the year round, and everything is taken care of by the princes, but this seal is the emperor's jade seal, could it be that the emperor of the Ron Empire found something and made these decisions? Calle knew, but he also knew one thing, that is, if the Ron Empire really launched a war that swept the entire Fury Continent, then neither the Kotler Empire nor the Binis Empire would be able to stop the impact of the Ron Empire, and even the Orc Empire, which did not know the strength of the Empire until now, could not last long under the attack of the Ron Empire like a tidal sea.
"Regularly select Imperial Academy cadets into the army for trials!"
Faramor continued to look at it, and finally fixed his eyes on this line of words, there is no restriction in this, so even His Royal Highness the Second Prince, there should be a chance to be selected, if he is really chosen, then where should he go, Faramor is more worried.
"I don't know how Lin is recovering now, and I haven't been to see him recently, I'm afraid it's already a grudge, right?" Kahler swept away the announcement that followed, and said to Faramir with a wry smile on his face after reading it.
For this question, Faramir chose to be silent very interestingly, this kind of thing, no matter how you answer, is the wrong answer, since this is the case, then wait for the second prince of Kahler to reveal the answer, so as to save Lang Fei from thinking about it, and asking for trouble.
Seeing that the military judge was silent, Calle did not blame, in fact, he himself was not very clear about this problem, after all, he came to the Ron Empire to study, just take a look at the empire's business, as an outsider, he really didn't need to say much, and these, Faramir also saw very clearly, although his assistant was a little scary, but he was a qualified or even excellent assistant.
"Faramor, do you think there are a lot of people waiting for me to go out, and then they are killed by a sudden attack as if they were in the testing ground?"
"The second prince knows in his heart, I have saved a lot of trouble, if someone attacks, then the one who falls in front of you is either an assassin who has been scarred or a subordinate whose face has been scarred for years!"
Looking at the military judge in front of him with some surprise, Kahler knew that this was Faramir's allegiance in disguise, and when he was in danger, the military judge would naturally take the lead in front of him, but now what Kahler needs now is not these, but a person who knows how to plan and can make up for himself, and now the best candidate is lying in Alf's house, and the date of recovery is unknown, but Kahler knows that what he needs most now is Lin!
But since Faramir told himself that the people who helped with the transfer had ulterior motives on the afternoon when Alf took Lin, Calle knew that this should be a trap, both Calle and Lin had been protected in the academy to a certain extent, but as soon as Lin left the door of the academy, he had already entered the land of right and wrong.
What the other party wants to do is to lure himself out of the school, and then throw himself into the net, thinking about this, Calle naturally will not go along with their wishes, after Faramir's observation, there are at least three waves of terrorist killers who want to attack on the way to Alf, as long as they don't go out, then they can't help themselves, but today they really can't go!
"Faramor, you go ahead to explore the way, and when you come back, I should finish taking care of it, and we'll go and see the situation in Lin now." With that, Calle took care of his clothes, and Faramir stopped talking, but in the end he still didn't say it, since he let himself go to explore the way, he must be very careful when he goes.
As soon as he went out, he found that a girl was already standing at the door, Faramir looked at it, and found that this girl was just waiting for herself, and she should also be a noble child when she was dressed.
"My name is Daisy, and I'm here to find His Royal Highness the Second Prince of Calle. β
Hearing this voice, Kahler, who was sorting out items in the species, couldn't help but be stunned, what was she doing here?
