Chapter 30: Travel Light
Captain Cao's words directly stunned Old Man Bo, if you want to say that Regiment Commander Cao raised an expedition just to prevent the enemy from hitting his home field, just to protect the lives of innocent people here, Old Man Bo didn't expect it. The huge ambition of Captain Cao, Old Man Bo couldn't even imagine. Just thinking about it for a while, Old Man Bo felt like a mang on his back, and a fine cold sweat broke out on his body in an instant! Turning his head to look at Old Man Ao who was still drinking himself, the latter just smiled slightly, and his face didn't even change, obviously Captain Cao's words didn't bother him at all.
"My old brother, don't be so anxious about this. The origin of this idea is by no means a day or two, this little bastard is good at everything, but this thief is too bold enough to cover the sky!" Old man Ao appeased this old fellow who had cooperated for a few days, and also cast a disgusted look at Head Cao.
"Do you know what it means to take the East Road Pass of Michael Jordan Daxue Mountain?" Commander Cao's thoughts are not just crazy? They are simply playing with fire and want to bring about their own destruction!
"Of course, I know what this means, the reason why the Exiled Realm is chaotic and unanarched, the backward level of education here, and the fierce folk customs are secondary reasons. The fundamental reason, in my opinion, is that it comes from the other side of the Great Snow Mountain of Michael Jordan, and the human world has not died in the heart of death, and has been daring to develop in the realm of exile, so that this place has always maintained a backward and chaotic situation, and it is the culprit. If you don't get through this gate, the problem of chaos in the Exiled Realm will never be solved. If we want to change the world here, we must isolate this place from the human world first, so that we can find a way to make drastic reforms!" This idea is indeed not new to now, it can be said that it has been circling in Captain Cao's heart for a long time, and he has already had such an idea since he found out how active the human figure is here.
"Even if you don't need me to say it, Old Man Bo, you should know it very well. If it weren't for the human race, how could there be such chaos here? Those bastards, as long as they find that the exiled realm is becoming calm, will always have a way to do things behind their backs, stir up contradictions between various forces, and then add fuel to the fire and make it burn into a raging fire. And what about them? It is in the process of obtaining the benefits of the fisherman, and they do not need to pay anything in the whole process, and they can bring the resources of the Exiled Domain back to their own homes in a grand manner, with their intentions and sinister spirit. If there is no peace here, it will be a treasure trove of resources for them. In a few years, these bastards will intensify until they plundered the resources here, or they will drive straight into this place and turn this place into their territory! Old man Bo, you wanted to change at the beginning, but why did you fail in the end? If you were only the natives of the Exiled Domain, would you make progress so slowly? Do you dare to say that there is no human world in the middle? You didn't lose to the natives of the Exiled Domain, and you fell under the impetus of the human bastards! Don't you want to avenge this kind of grudge?" Head Cao saw blood for a while, and he didn't care if this was Old Man Bo's old scar, so he directly tore it open, and it was bloody!
Captain Cao's words also directly evoked many memories of Old Man Bo, as Captain Cao said, Old Man Bo has made no achievements since the establishment of the San Antonio Grand League, this is indeed not that Old Man Bo is not hard enough, nor is it that the contradictions within the Exiled Domain cannot be reconciled, but because of the involvement of human beings, it makes it difficult for him to move forward. Whenever any of the forces rise up in the Realm of Exile, the human presence will immediately follow, coming and doing things until you can no longer do anything. Any one of them will easily affect the huge interests of the human world here. No matter which forces in the human world are consistent, they have never been confused in this regard.
"But it's easy to say, how can it be so simple to really close the Exile Domain? The idea of wanting to swallow the eastern mountain pass is too dangerous, and it is an even more dangerous road than I did at the beginning!" Old Man Bo stared at Captain Cao with burning eyes, as if he wanted to see something from Captain Cao's face.
"Any major event is accompanied by danger, if there is no danger, then what is a big thing? I Cao someone was born bold in this life, and others dare not think about it, I dare to think about it. What others dare not do, I dare to do. Leonardo can sit on the West Road Pass, so why can't my surnamed Cao control the East Road Pass? The human world wants to dominate here, so why can't I think so? Why can't I be the one who dominates here? Once the human world occupies this place, won't the natives here live in dire straits? And once I can dominate here, I can turn this place into a pure land to live and work in peace and contentment. I'm better suited to dominate here than they are, that's what I think. Head Cao grinned and said, "Whether you live or die is up to fate, those who are afraid will lose, let's live in the next moment!"
"Even if you lead the expedition with the team, will the people who win the Rex Empire be able to hold the East Road Pass? Even the local natives of the exiled realm have a restless heart, are they willing to obey you? Even the human beings will only talk to them at most, and will never try to suppress them, because they are extremely wild! Take what you have experienced, even if you want to control this mud snail valley, how many difficulties have you encountered? Which one is easy to talk to? The natives over there are even more difficult to get along with. Although Old Man Bo also admits that Captain Cao's opinion is indeed correct, he still has to say that things are not something that can be done as soon as he is enthusiastic.
"I've thought about this, and it's definitely impossible to take it directly. But I can also subtly change their opinion of the Raiders. For example, this time, the expedition is just to let those blind guys have a good idea of the strength of our raiding group, and I don't mind killing chickens and monkeys when necessary, so that they can understand the fate of cooperating with humans. The power comes out under the iron fist, yes, it is to subdue them!" Commander Cao said categorically, and a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
When it came to this, Old Man Bo could only be speechless. He could see that Regiment Leader Cao had already eaten the scales, and this big-backed bastard was really going to do this. As a person who has come over, Mr. Bo feels that his experience and achievements are not enough to praise, and there is no more. And I don't know why, he still has an inexplicable feeling of anticipation in his heart. Since the path he chose back then was not successful, what would he be like if he followed Captain Cao's line of thought? Perhaps if you don't pretend to be a human being, this should be the integrity of a hot-blooded man.
"I said old man, do you know what my experience is when I have worked with this little bastard for so long?" Old man Ao smiled and patted Old Man Bo on the shoulder, Old Man Bo's reaction now is really a bit like Old Man Ao when he first joined this collective, he will be stunned at any time, but it is good to get used to it, and now Old Man Ao has successfully evolved into a person who has come over, and he is so calm that he can't describe it in words.
"Maybe the time of us old guys is over, and now it's the world of their young people. There is no difference between who is right and who is wrong, only the difference that is suitable for the current situation. In my opinion, this little bastard's idea is also a viable approach. If you're worried about them, don't worry, these guys are definitely more difficult to deal with than you think. The Rex Empire's action this time is not small, but it is not a big deal, if we avoid it, it will be easy for them to forget. If we give them another heavy blow, they will seriously weigh our weight, and at least we will be able to get peace for a long time. "Old man Ao is undoubtedly a lobbyist, if you want to say that the old man who understands the old man here the most, that is, Old Man Ao. Although the two have not been together for a long time, there is an indescribable tacit understanding between the two, many times the two old men have already understood each other's meaning just by exchanging glances, which also makes Captain Cao amazed.
"Well, if that's the case, there's no reason why I, an old man, shouldn't follow along and see how these young people in the new age prove themselves. It's just that as soon as Old Man Ao opened his mouth, Old Man Bo nodded. After a pause, he looked at Regiment Commander Cao and said, "If you take the initiative to go on the expedition, what are the arrangements for the team and personnel?" According to your plan, presumably the duration of this battle will not be short, and the food and baggage must be properly arranged so that there will be no chaos." ”
"There doesn't seem to be anything to arrange in this regard......" Commander Cao almost choked Old Man Bo when he spoke, as the saying goes, the three armies go first before moving the grain and grass, Commander Cao is good, ******** thinking about fighting, but there is not even a little logistical arrangement, which is too contrary to common sense. Commander Cao scratched his head and said: "The equipment of the soldiers of our plundering regiment is already the best that can be done so far, although the armament of the alliance escort army is a little worse, but it is also stronger than all the bandit gangs in the Exiled Domain, at least the manpower has a complete set of copper standard equipment, and it can also go to the battlefield, which is enough to deal with some combat missions." My idea is that the main force is 700 people, and if the Alliance Escort Army is concerned, it is enough to bring 1,000 people. I am in charge of the main fighters of the raiding group, and the escort army is in charge of Pi Erzi, which should be a very ideal match in theory. ”
"What about logistics? If you don't even have to eat, what kind of battle are you going to fight?" As an old and serious person, Old Man Bo was in a hurry, and he definitely didn't want to rush out when there was no arrangement for military supplies. Why is the human world so strong? Because other people's family foundations are strong enough, and their economic foundation is strong enough. The essence of fighting a war is to burn money, and if logistics cannot be guaranteed, no matter how strong the team is, it will be defeated, which is the immutable theorem.
"Why are you so profound......" Head Cao looked unhappy, he was used to dictatorship, and he rarely faced such a situation as being pointed at and questioned. Head Cao thought for a moment and said, "I've already stepped on the ground over there before, and it's only half a month's journey from us to the East Road Pass." If you don't open a few questions, it may be ten days. To be on the safe side, prepare a month's rations, and load thirty carts of cigarettes and alcohol. Old Man Ao and Old Man Bo, you two old men will be in charge of logistics, and transfer two hundred half-orc warriors to give you a hand, and you can come over slowly. ”
"How can this be reasonable! What a joke in the world, you are really ridiculous as a commander of the army!" After being stunned for a long time, Old Man Bo finally couldn't bear it anymore. He asked himself that he was still a very calm person, but in front of Captain Cao, his personal cultivation for so many years was like an ornament!
Old Man Bo is also an old native of the Exiled Domain, and it only takes half a month's foot from the mud snail to the East Road Pass? This is also too exaggerated! The Spur tribe of Old Man Bo is in San Antonio, and the distance to the East Road Pass is at least one-third closer than that of the mud snail land. Even if you are in a hurry, it will take at least 20 days or more to arrive smoothly. Regiment Commander Cao actually said that it would only take him half a month to take people over? Old Man Bo is not blind, the only cavalry in the plundering regiment is only a hundred timber wolf knights, and the others are all infantry running with big feet. It is even more infuriating that the algorithm of head Cao in terms of grain and grass is even more vexatious. Even according to his calculations, even if it only takes half a month's foot to take the team over, and that round trip is a month's time, and only one month's rations are carried out, wouldn't it be just a rush to the East Road Pass, and they have to run back? Could it be that the soldiers of the plundering regiment can fill their bellies by drinking the northwest wind? As for bringing so much tobacco and alcohol, it is even more unimaginable for Old Man Bo, is this going to war or sightseeing?
"Old man, you still don't know the military quality of our army, and you don't know about our mobility yet, I don't blame you for this. I don't mean to offend your old man, I just want to tell you that if you judge us by the eyes of the average team, you would be very wrong. Even the warriors of your Spur Tribes are definitely no match for our second-tier team. In addition, as I said just now, we used to take care of the natives over there, and if there was not enough food, we would plunder it on the spot, sharpen our knives and cut firewood......!"
