Chapter 500 [Military Speculation]

The Roland Empire, by and large, has been at peace for a hundred years.

In the past hundred years, although there have been some occasional small frictions with the orcs on the border, on the whole, this hundred years are definitely worthy of the evaluation of "peaceful times".

The top wealthy family of an empire, in a peaceful environment, carried the emperor behind his back, and two generations of emperors behind his back, quietly cultivating his own army, expanding the army, and even hid the army quietly outside the country to hone and train......

What's more, this family was originally inextricably linked with the royal family, whether it was strength, prestige, or origin, they were all qualified to compete for the throne, and they were absolutely qualified to challenge the emperor's throne!

At this time, this family suddenly created a secret army that no one knew about, and the number should not be too small, and it was secretly preparing for war......

What kind of motive is this?

If that's how it is...... It's scary to think about!

The duchess of the Tulip family, what the hell does she want to do?

If it is said that after Shiloh took the throne, she secretly pulled out an army to be secretly cultivated on the grassland, perhaps it can be justified with the reason of "self-preservation", after all, it was Shiloh who raised the butcher's knife against the Tulip family first.

But the question is...... This duchess started the layout two years ago...... Or even earlier, most likely?

You know, two years ago, it was still Marhi Majesty who was still working for it! Marhi Majesty has always been very preferential to the Tulip family!

So what do the Tulip family want to do when they secretly cultivate such an army?

Do you still need to ask?!

There seems to be no other answer than rebellion!!

Spann sat there, his body falling into the ice cellar! he felt cold all over his body, even his fingers were cold!

If the fact that the great Tulip family rebelled completely subverted the glorious and great image of the Tulip family in Span's mind, then the more important question in reality was: as an imperial official, as an imperial official assisting Panin in the northwest. How should I deal with it?!

The most important reason why he was willing to do his best to come to the northwest to assist Paning was that he believed that Paning did not want to fight a civil war, and he believed that Paning wanted to stabilize the situation in the northwest.

But I never expected it...... It turned out that he and Panin were here, trying their best to suppress those Rollin families, Aker's descendants, and suppress them to stir up trouble in the northwest.

But it turned out to be ...... Tulip home itself. Ready for war for a long time!!

What if the Tulip family itself had been ready for a civil war?!

......

"There are two other possibilities that we have to fully consider. Panin said slowly: "First, this abnormal movement on the grassland, the gathering of the grassland people, and the eastward invasion of our country, it is likely that the tulip family will play a role in it." I even doubt it. This is a deliberate movement made by the tulip family, and even ...... Although the Prairie King is the initiator of the war, he is likely to be just a puppet of the Tulip family. It's hard for you and me to imagine...... When the time came, the 200,000 and 300,000 cavalry of the steppe people entered the country and drove straight into the northwest, and the tulip family sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight, watching the imperial army and the steppe people lose both. And then...... They came out again and cleaned up the rivers and mountains.

At that time, the prestige of the Tulip family will reach its peak! At that time, even if they take advantage of the trend and replace the royal family, it will not be a difficult task. ”

The guess that Panin said immediately hit the most fearful and soft place in Span's heart!

This is also the most terrible answer he vaguely guessed in his heart!

"There is a second possibility...... The 'White King' of the Prairie. I doubt it now. Our Hilo Majesty has been deceived. His Majesty Xiluo originally thought that he and the White King were teaming up to mobilize the steppe people to put pressure on the Tulip family. But in fact...... I even suspect that the White King has been in collusion with the Tulip family for a long time. Otherwise, it's a coincidence!"

"Legends...... The vein of the 'White King' on the grassland was originally related to the Tulip family. Spann gritted his teeth.

Panin nodded, and he quickly walked behind the table and pulled out a map from the cabinet. Spread it out on the table, and ask Spann to stand and watch.

"We only have two divisions of Thor's Whip in our hands now, and although they are elite, they are obviously under-armed. In total, there were only tens of thousands of troops. And...... Half of them were infantry, and in the northwest, a flat place, the infantry could only be used to defend the city, and if they fought the cavalry on the plains, it would definitely be a death - and the opponent still had the advantage in forces. Panin said quickly: "So, I have made some plans in my heart, once the war breaks out and the enemy comes from the west, then we can only shrink our forces, and when necessary, use Mulan City as a stronghold to radiate three or four surrounding towns to form a military zone...... As for the rest of the land west of Mulan City and Nulin Province, we can only give it up for the time being! With Mulan City as the boundary, we must defend it to the death! Because once we cross Mulan City, to the east will be the Qianli Plain, and there will be the Lancang Canal, and the enemy can go down the river and go straight to the imperial capital! Therefore, ......"

Span immediately nodded: "So, Mulan City is the key! The city defense of Mulan City was originally built according to the standards of the Empire's first-class military fortress. And the other three surrounding cities, the city defense has also reached the standard of a second-level fortress. We rely on these cities as the focus of our defense, and we are firmly nailed here, so that no matter who the enemy is, unless we eat us here, they will never be able to pass us and go straight through us as long as we survive, otherwise we can threaten their rear at any time - this plan of yours is feasible from a military point of view. ”

The two glanced at each other, and they both knew very well in their hearts that although what was said on their mouths was "no matter who the enemy is", everyone already understood in their hearts at this moment that this enemy was most likely ...... The invincible tulip family!

"Once the war breaks out, as long as we can hold out in Nulin Province for half a year, we will not ...... Maybe three months is enough, then we have the entire empire as the rear, and the Lancang River, the east-west artery of the empire, as the blood vessel, and the aid from the rear will continue to be delivered to us. The empire mobilized armies, local garrisons, and even reserves in the rear...... Troops from the north and south and from the eastern seaboard were dispatched from the Lancang River to the northwest by water...... As long as we can stay here for three months!" said Panin, quickly.

Trimester?

There was bitterness in Spann's mouth.

Three months, that's easier said than done!

If it is said that it is before I come to the Northwest this time. Including Shiloh and Aker, they all believe that the Thor's whip of the two divisions is enough to keep an eye on the Tulip family in the northwest. Even if the strength of the two divisions is no match for the Tulip family, at least, in case of a civil war. It is no problem to hold the tulip house for the time being.

But now...... The situation is definitely different!

Because now the two of them already know...... Tulips had been preparing for war two years earlier!!

A tulip family that has not mobilized for war and has not prepared for war, and a tulip family that has been deployed for two years to prepare for war are two completely different storage zài!!

Two years of secret preparation was enough for the Tulip family to adjust the army to the best condition.

The equipment and weapons of the army have been replaced and maintained to the best condition. The morale of the army and the allocation of personnel have been secretly adjusted to the best combination.

Even the baggage, ordnance, and supplies have been fully prepared!

They...... He even secretly cultivated a cavalry in the steppe!

It is conceivable that with the financial resources and strength of the Tulip family. The number of this cavalry that has been cultivated will never be small! The strength will never be bad!

Moreover, unlike the Roland Empire...... In the past 100 years, there has been no peace on the grassland.

Wars between tribes, the change of steppe kings, wars for royal power......

It can be guessed that the army secretly cultivated by the Tulip family on the grassland must be the elite of a hundred battles! It is by no means simply those soldiers trained from the training ground.

Definitely on the battlefield. Killed people and seen blood, the real elite!

Such an army, when encountering those so-called "elites" who have not been on the battlefield, can definitely be one as ten!

This is no joke or exaggeration.

The two glanced at each other, both grim faces.

No matter how confident and proud Panin is, he will not think that he has the thunder whip of two divisions. Can you compete with the elite army of the Tulip family, and you have to add two or three hundred thousand steppe cavalry?

The two divisions will not add up to more than 50,000 people.

What's more, it is not an old army that he is used to, and it has only been two or three months since he took over this army.

Tulip Home ...... And a lot of terrible weapons of war!

Like what...... Air force?

Span's face was a little pale. In the midst of that protracted war more than a hundred years ago. How much magical power the Tulip Family has contributed!

The only air force of the empire at that time was formed by the Tulip family!

After more than a hundred years of history, although the Tulip family is now on the surface of the light does not have a powerful air force.

However, as long as you have a little brain, you can imagine that as the founder of the Air Force, the Tulip family will really have no Air Force?!

"There's only one thing I can't figure out right now. ”

Panin's face was solemn, and he sighed softly, reaching out to a spot on the map.

Span's eyes flashed!

The place where Panin fingered was not elsewhere was ...... Northwest Fortress!

"As an important border town in the northwest, the northwest frontier line of the empire to the outside world, the fortress group ...... Such an important location...... If the Tulip family really wants to rebel, why would they give up such a place? Give this place to that Darling Chen?"

Panin narrowed his eyes: "It stands to reason that from a military point of view, if the Tulip family really has the intention of rebellion, they should firmly grasp this location, once the war breaks out...... They can draw troops from the high northwest fortress and go directly south! When the time comes...... You can attack us on both sides. ”
