Chapter 150: Base Planning
In fact, many people don't think about the results when they do certain things. It's like an inconspicuous spark in the grassland, and like a butterfly inadvertently spreading its wings...... They don't know what happened and what storms came beyond.
......
After hearing the results of the pilot implementation of the big-character poster Jihua, Luo Sha immediately decided to cast a large area of the net. The Propaganda Department, the Tactical Department, the Scout Team, and all other departments were activated, and the villages and towns within a radius of more than 100 kilometers were marked on the map as soon as possible.
Vivid cartoons, real and tragic stories, concise and powerful gray army concept...... Like nuclear fission, it has set off waves in the hearts of thousands of poor people.
Of course, there is such a response, thanks to the unyielding struggle of the gray army for more than ten years. These good impressions are now starting to build up.
All this went on quietly, and the nobles who were in the city did not know that a vigorous movement was accumulating liliang.
Propaganda is only the first step of the big-character poster Jihua, and the next step is for the gray-clothed army personnel to go to harvest the results. Or a villager who wants to be a gray army, or a bag of food to support......
The strength of the Grey Army is expanding at an unprecedented rate, and the small oath-taking meetings that used to be held when any person joins are now changed to a three-day period, then a five-day period, and a week-long period......
Everything is two-sided, just as there are pros and cons to everything. Those who continue to join, in addition to enhancing the strength of the gray army, also bring some management difficulties. The area of the garrison has been repeatedly expanded, and a large number of veterans have begun to take up the position of captain...... The top brass of the Grey Army began to fall into happy troubles, first of all, there was not enough armor and weapons, and then food was also a problem in the future...... I thought that if I knocked on those nobles, I would be able to support it for a long time. But now it seems that it is far from enough.
More than a month after the implementation of the big-character poster Jihua, Luo Sha held a high-level meeting in her cabin. This time, in addition to those old ministers, Donn, Josia, and Borg were also asked to join.
Josia vs. Borg is because of recent standout performances, especially Josia. You must know that even Bosco thinks that the big-character poster Jihua is from her. Now that such a gratifying effect has been achieved, it is natural to be entitled to a seat here.
It was somewhat surprising that Tang En sat next to the old ministers, but thinking about the previous military exploits, he could barely reach it.
But Don is a bit bored right now, and he's here purely because of Losha's request. He hadn't been concerned about the changes in the station lately, and had instead devoted himself to training the new recruits.
"Ahem, now that we're all here. Let's get started!" Losha cleared his throat and turned his gaze to Bosco.
The latter nodded knowingly, got up and took out a piece of paper: "In the past month and a half, more than 25,000 people have joined the Gray Clothes Army, and about 30,000 ......kilograms of food have been donated."
Wow -
Everyone was in good spirits when they heard this. Joy in shape.
Tang En also raised an eyebrow, he knew that the Gray Army was expanding rapidly recently, but he didn't expect such amazing results.
“...... Josia has a lot to do to achieve such results. So allow me to express my gratitude. With that, Bosko half-bowed and bowed to Josia.
"Uh......" Josia startled. The little face suddenly turned red, and he hurriedly got up and bowed in return, "Minister Bosko, you are serious, I, I ......"
Stammering, Josia couldn't help but look at Don on the side with shame.
She naturally knew who the big-character poster Jihua came from, but both Tang En and Luo Sha had told her that this Jihua would be recorded in her name.
Tang En took the lead in applauding and said with a smile: "Josia, don't be too humble, this is your credit!"
Bang Bang Bang ......
The people around them were all smiling and applauding, they didn't know what was going on, so they all looked encouraging.
Josia was stunned, then pursed her lips and bowed to the people around her.
Didn't she know that Losha was going to support her as a hero...... Donn looked at Losha suspiciously. The latter stroked her forehead, she had been busy with miscellaneous things lately, and she had forgotten to communicate with Josia about it.
After a pause in applause, Bosko added: "But because of so many people joining, the station logistics has already issued a warning, and if this continues, we will fall into a food crisis in a month." ”
"That's good!" Losha nodded, "That's why everyone was called here, and I hope to find a way to solve this problem." ”
It suddenly dawned on Don that it seemed that Losha had invited him to come with some good idea...... With a wry smile, Tang En couldn't help but shake his head, his family knew his own affairs, and this kind of question was really blind to him......
The people who joined after that couldn't help but be soldiers were still open mouths. If this problem is not properly addressed, it will indeed be demoralizing.
The Grey Army's financial resources mainly depend on donations from the people, and when the number of people was small in the past, it could barely maintain a balance. Now that the 25,000 men were added, the balance was immediately upset, and it can be said that if it hadn't been for the recent gains, the Grey Army would have been in a famine right now.
The questions were on the table, and the relaxed atmosphere that started first was swept away. The crowd pondered and meditated, and the occasional ideas were quickly rejected in the discussion, either because they were not a cure for the symptoms or because they were unrealistic.
Don yawned covertly, he had given up early, this was really not a problem he could solve. swept around, but focused his attention on Zofan in the corner, who still looked like he had no sense of existence, closed his eyes and hugged his sword, as if he was in a state of napping.
Is this an air-level martial artist? Sure enough, it's a master's demeanor...... Donn's boring conjecture.
As if feeling the scrutinizing gaze, Zofan suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Tang En, nodded slightly, and then closed his eyes again.
Tang En was stunned for a moment and touched his nose. It feels really sensitive......
That's when I said, "I had an idea. A clear voice rang out.
Don turned his head in surprise and saw Borg get up from his seat and salute.
"Oh? Losha asked with interest.
"My idea is to establish a fixed production place in the rear of the station!" Borg said confidently, "We have a fairly strong reserve of Liliang now, and it will be stronger in the future, so what if we don't build an impregnable defense, and use this as the base camp of the Gray Army?" We can free up our hands to do production and be self-sufficient......"
Borg's idea was undoubtedly viable, and it was like aristocrats having their own estates and some productive farms. Before, the gray army was hunted down and killed because of its poor strength, and it couldn't stand firm. Now with the big-character poster jihua, the strength will undoubtedly develop rapidly. So. It is very necessary to establish base areas.
But was this really the idea that Borg came up with? Donn was skeptical, and through previous contacts, Donn knew that Borg was very smart, especially good at tactics, but was completely amateur in these internal affairs such as logistics......
"Borg's good idea!"
"yes, it's time to think about building our own territory. ”
“......”
Several old ministers' eyes lit up, and they spoke in support of Borg's idea.
"But it takes time to grow crops, at least a few months. What about our current problems?" asked an old minister.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then nodded. Yes, it's a good idea, but it's too slow. Far water can't quench your thirst.
Borg said confidently: "I also think about this, recently Bran is at war with the Northern Wilderness tribe, and the army materials are all transported from the rear cities. I'd recommend starting from here!"
"You mean we robbed it?"
Shaking his head slightly, Borg smiled, "No." It's those thieves who rob it, and it has nothing to do with our gray army. ”
"Uh......" looked at Borg's incomprehensible smile, and everyone came back to their senses. Understood his intentions.
Borg's meaning is simple, it is to let the Gray soldiers pretend to be bandits to carry out the robbery. Anyway, there are many bandits in the north, and the Bran officials will not suspect them for a while.
"Good!"
"I think it's okay, it's time for them to pay a price for chasing us for so many years. The old general Oumeng nodded and said.
At this time, Don noticed Bosko who was smiling lightly at the corner of his mouth, yes, this kind of watertight idea should have been thought up by him, and now it was just borrowed from Borg's mouth. The reason is also easy to think, just like the big-character poster Jihua is recorded in Josia's name, in order to increase prestige merit.
"Very well, Borg, you have a good idea!" Losha nodded with a happy face, she didn't expect the problem to be solved so quickly.
Borg was appreciated, and his smug expression could not help but be revealed, but he was not stupid, and quickly bowed down to thank everyone for their encouragement.
The atmosphere in the cabin was relaxed again, and the old ministers looked at Josia and Borg with admiration, and they had indeed done well lately.
At this time, knock...... There was a knock on the door!
Luo Sha was stunned, she had already told the guards outside that she would have a meeting today and not let outsiders disturb her.
"Come in!"
A young man in gray pushed the door and walked in, saluting: "Chief, good ministers and chiefs, I have an urgent report." ”
Donn raised an eyebrow, isn't this Colin from the Propaganda Department?
"Well, you say. ”
"When we went to a village today to continue the propaganda, we found that several villagers who had donated food to us were seriously injured......
"What!"
"Damn, who did that?"
Everyone was furious, and most of the Grey Coats were from civilians. And now the one who is being beaten is the one who once donated food, which is clearly aimed at the gray army. If this matter is not handled well, it will make the people afraid, and then it will also affect the big-character poster jihua.
Colin continued, "It's the owner of this fiefdom, a knight named Claude. ”
Luo Sha had a gloomy face and nodded, "Got it, you go out first." ”
After Colin brought the door, Losha glanced around: "What do you say should be done about this?"
"Kill back, of course!" said the hot-tempered old general Oumeng, "I will let a group of men and horses set off now and set foot on his manor." ”
"I'm okay with killing ......," said an old minister, frowning, "but will the consequences attract some people's attention?"
It can be said that this happened at a very bad time, and now the big-character poster jihua is in full swing. If Bran is targeted by Bran for killing this knight, it is difficult to say what the consequences will be.
It can be said that now the gray army is in a dilemma. If you don't kill, it will chill everyone's hearts, and it may also have an unpleasant impact on the big-character poster jihua. kill, the consequences are unpredictable, and even a bad one will continue to be hunted down.
The situation is clear, and now it will be up to the top to decide what to do. Suddenly
"Huh......" Luo Sha, who had been muttering and watching everyone discuss, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said categorically: "Kill!" Luo Sha is going to use this to establish her authority, and she is now not allowed to do anything to stop the development of the big-character poster.
Losha is the supreme leader of the Grey Army, and has the final decision-making power. But she is not a dictatorship, and her usual decisions are made after discussion with everyone. Of course, this does not mean that she does not have the ability to make decisions, once she has made up her mind, Luo Sha can be described as resolute.
"Okay! I'll ......," the old general beat his palm, and waited for the order.
"Wait!" Don suddenly stood up at this time, first apologized to the old general Oumeng, and then said calmly: "Chief, how about handing over this mission to the gray space?"
Tang En has been worrying about how to bring those new members to the actual combat recently, after all, no matter how much training he has, he will eventually kill people. Now that he has this opportunity, he certainly won't miss it.
Luo Sha looked at Don who took the initiative to ask for battle, and instantly understood his intentions, and nodded, "Yes." But this time, I want to kill it completely, and wipe out the manor directly!"
"Rest assured, Chief, professional!"
