339 Salon's Determination
As soon as Salon came down from the castle tower, he received an urgent message from the Legion headquarters, and even Isalon's tenacity was shocked by the situation inside. The three Miao Erdian heavy army clusters, the 100,000 army is now assembled in the Ovit area, a hundred miles away from the northern fortress, and his full calculation is only 20,000 people, which is even counting the logistics troops.
Of course, it wasn't all bad news, according to the secret delivery of the Legion Headquarters, the Governor-General, who was commanding the battle outside Kyoto, temporarily transferred the most elite 5,000 Samor Guards cavalry under his command from the Kyoto front to the northern fortress to expand the combat capability of the northern defense line.
The letter also specifically pointed out that although the northern fortress was strong, it was not a long-term place to defend, and that the 100,000 Miao Erdian elite was not comparable to the local army of the Stien family, and if necessary, Salon was allowed to abandon the northern fortress and retreat to the Thirteen Forts, which was close to the northern outskirts of Kyoto, echoing the main force of the Samorian army that was near Kyoto
Moreover, between the northern fortress and the Thirteenth Company Fort, it is a narrow hilly land with low terrain, which is the best area for small groups of elite cavalry to maneuver for combat, and there is a strong Samar Guards cavalry to cover, which can allow the northern legion to retreat safely to the thirteenth company fort if necessary, which virtually makes the northern legion less but a lot of worries
Salon's face was a little rosy after reading the letter, and Salon knew that this was the special care of the Governor for Zigong,
These 5,000 Samar Guards cavalry are the treasure bumps of the Governor, each of them is a carefully selected elite from various troops, and it is the sharpest blade on the Samorian army's war knife.
At this time, the Governor handed over the most elite troops in this Samol army to himself, and the importance and trust in it made Saron feel moved, it turned out that the Lord had not forgotten himself!
Salon raised his head, put the letter on the table with a solemn face, and below him, were the two local flag commanders who were responsible for the defense of Hubolaban, for the situation that Salon had just explained, the two flag commanders could feel an unspeakable pressure, and no one was afraid of fighting. You can use 20,000 people to fight with 100,000 people, even a fool knows what the result is
"What's the matter, are you two scared?" Salon's one-eyed glow flashed coldly, swept over the faces of the two flag leaders, and said in a dull voice, "You don't always shout to cross the river on weekdays, but now the opportunity has come! No one dares to gnaw?" The two local flag commanders' faces turned red when they were sarcastic, you look at me, I look at you, just don't gnaw
Among them, there is a big man with a big waist and a round waist, obviously a head taller than the others, and he buried his neck in his chest, this guy named Lu Ai, don't look taller than others, but in fact, he is the person who is most afraid of death in his heart.
Originally, he was the heir of the Dustroai family, a side branch of the Falcon family, when the Falcon family was first divided. The timid guy is the only one who has not announced his departure from the family, and after the fat man unified the falcon territory, he thought about this guy who was quite loyal. He was asked to serve as the flag head of a local flag regiment.
Later, the Battle of Fort Djerber broke out, in view of the fact that the main force of the legion advanced westward to Dehrem, and the northern defense force was insufficient, the fat man temporarily transferred this guy who was afraid of death in his bones from the Falcon Territory to the northern fortress, the fat man knew that this guy could not fight, he was timid like a chicken, and he wasted such a good body in vain, but there was a little good, loyalty, at least he did not have the courage to support the army, and Samar was heavily armed, which was exactly what was most needed,
Moreover, Lu Ai's identity as a side branch of the Falcon family can also allow the soldiers stationed in the northern fortress to have a certain psychological guarantee, which invisibly plays a role in stabilizing the morale of the army.
"Commander Lu Aiqi, you are the general specifically mentioned in the secret letter of the Governor, I want to hear from you, how we should fight this time!" Although Lu Ai was eager to find a hole to get into, Salon did not let him go, looking at Lu Ai's tall figure, the corners of his mouth giggled,
Salon was originally hideous, but now the corners of his mouth were grinning, and the smile full of evil spirit made Lu Ai's tall boy tremble, and his heart was sudden, knowing that he was in a catastrophe again this time, "Otherwise, my lord, you can send me to negotiate!" Lu Ai's face smiled like crying,
In the letter from the Governor-General, it was specifically mentioned that Lu Ai would be sent to the north to negotiate on behalf of Samol, of course, the negotiations were fake, and the real purpose was only one, that is, to delay time, if the reinforcements from Kyoto could be delayed, it would be the best, even if it didn't take so long, at least it could give the Stian family in the north a small warning, "We found out about your small moves", which would also slow down the advance of the army in the south. ,
"This is a treasure left by the Governor," Salon nodded with satisfaction, and couldn't help but feel convinced of the Governor's pre-arrangement,
At the beginning of the net, Ssalon had a lot of problems with the governor pushing such a waste into his own army, and even wrote a few letters to complain to the fat man, saying that this stupid big man couldn't do anything, and he was dizzy when he saw blood, and such a person was really a shame for the Samour army
Soon the fat man's reply came, in which he scolded Salon severely, saying that Salon had picked up a treasure and compared it with a stone, and told Sù Salonn several ways to use it for poor Luai.
For example, go to the Legion Headquarters to ask for military expenses, this is a member of the Falcon family, even if the quartermaster of the Legion Department is harsh, he will not dare to do anything about it.
Another example is to let Lu Ai negotiate with the guys of the Business Alliance who are dead on the money to negotiate the transportation of army materials, the fat man is the backstage boss of the Business Alliance, even if the deacons of the Business Alliance admit the money to death, they will never dare to mention money to the Falcon family.
Finally, and most importantly, he was to negotiate on behalf of Samore! Lu Ai was a member of the Falcon family, and could nominally negotiate with other forces on behalf of the Governor! Such a versatile talent was hard to come by.
At that time, after reading the letter, Salon, looked happy and said three good words in a row, and when he saw Lu Ai's bitter gourd face again, his eyes lit up, just like a beggar who had not eaten for three days suddenly saw a fried chicken leg, almost did not make the timid Lu Ai think that the one-eyed dragon had any bad habits, and he was worried for a winter
Speaking of which, the fat man still has some friendship for Salon, a stupid big man, after all, Salon led the army to guard the bitter cold land alone, if there is no sweetness, Sarong will not do this second goods,
The letters asking for money, people, and weapons have never been broken, and the fat man was annoyed and had no choice, so he let Lu Ai go.
No, the best weapons must be equipped with the northern garrison first, which is the favorite excuse used by the Samar Arms Institute to raise prices
Salon's northern garrison was the first unit in Samar to be equipped with spears, and it was also the first to have an independent squadron of Thor, 10,000 elite spearmen, 1,000 up-to-date infantry heavy crossbows, 130 heavy ballistae, and 40 Thor. This is the confidence of Salon's desire to hold the northern fortress,
Of course, there is no less pity for Lu Ai's credit, after all, he is the highest-ranking person in the Falcon side branch family, and many new weapons are forcibly brought by Lu Ai from the Weapons Research Institute, and they are allocated to Lu Ai's banner regiment according to the establishment, and when they arrive at the northern fortress, they become Salon's furniture.
"Okay! Commander Lu Aiqi is really brave! This matter will be entrusted to you" Salon patted Lu Ai's shoulder with a relieved face, and with a solemn expression, he took out an unopened secret letter from his arms and handed it to Lu Ai. He said in a deep voice, "This is a secret letter added to the letter of the Governor, even I have not opened it, and the Lord said in the letter that if Lord Lu Ai agrees to the request of this envoy, I will hand this over to you!"
"Three days! We need at least three days to set up our defenses!" Salon paused, waving three fingers in front of Lu Ai's miserable eyes, and then stood up, respectfully stood up and gave Lu Ai a military salute, which startled Lu Ai,
Sallon's one-eyed stare at Lu Ai, and said with a stern expression, "This is what I am doing to you on behalf of the 20,000 garrisons of the Northern Fortress!
"My lord!" Lu Ai straightened up, his eyes were slightly red, this was the first time Lu Ai felt that he could be faced, this one-eyed dragon boss was a famous general in the Samor army, and being able to get his appreciation made Lu Ai's heart so excited, and he was confused under the escort of dozens of scout cavalry, and crossed the northern river with full hesitation.
"Quickly mobilize people to carry all the equipment for defending the city to the fortress for me!" Salon retracted his gaze from the figure of Lu Ai in the distance, and ordered to the herald behind him, "The two watchtowers in the north and south must be thickened for me, tell the squadron leaders who are about to go crazy all day thinking about military exploits, this is going to be a big business, just eat enough, three days, we only have three days, let them take out the strength to feed me, and give me all the family resources! Salon waved his hand to the herald again, "Go quickly! Remember to bring me that kid Lephizate, and say I'm looking for him!"
"My lord, are you looking for me?" a Samour officer dressed in squadron leader costume ran up to the city in a hurry, and Salonn turned his head, the corner of his mouth grinned, and his bright one-eyed eyes made Lefizate pause, "I remember that your kid's uncle is the head of the Hubraban Regional Business Alliance, and you kid has hidden the most smuggled goods in the past, let's talk about it." What are your plans for this time?" Salon asked with a mysterious face,
"Great, my lord, you're laughing! I don't have anything to hide! This is all rumored by those outsiders" Lefezart's face turned pale,
It was a felony to smuggle goods among the Samar army, and the northern fort was located on both sides. Due to the impact of the Kyoto embargo, goods that were supposed to pass through Guò Kyoto were transported directly from Khuboraban to the north, making Khubaraban in the north a transit point for northern trade.
Because most of the garrisons in the northern fortress were northerners who had fled to the south, after the end of the Kugit War, many soldiers' families came to Hubolaban with the army to settle down.
For this situation, the fat man also turned a blind eye, Samar needed a solid northern border defense, if the soldier's family was placed in Hubolaban, it would be very good for stabilizing the morale of the army and improving the will to fight
"You didn't hide your secrets?" Salon looked at Lefizat with an unnatural face, and said with a stern expression, "In the past two months, tens of thousands of cotton clothes have been transported from your defense area across the northern river, and last week, ten more truckloads of leather from the Branlun region were transported from your defense area to Hubolaban, are you really blind to my two eyes?"
"My lord, this Lefizat has a dead face, and his body is striking. Chilling, the Salon army has always been strict, only a little looser about smuggling, which is actually hinted at by the fat man's secret letter,
Hubolaban is located in the northern cold land, the population is not large, after the Kujit people burned and looted, and experienced the rebellion of the private army, most of the entire area has fled, most of the villages are also ten rooms and nine empty, even the road construction is used prisoners of war, to recover in a short time, it is not an easy task.
The fat man then thought of a crooked trick, smuggling, which could make Huporaban quickly become the center of material trading in the north, and could restore the Huporaban region from the war without spending a penny, and the population could migrate from the south, but the economy needed these merchants, and under this instruction, Salonn was also happy to take a part of the smugglers' filial piety as the military expenses of the legion. "I want to live and die! To put it mildly, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you!" Salon said in a deep voice as he looked at the bleak Lefizate, and waved his arm, and several murderous guards gathered from all around, the scabbard in his hand revealing half of the sharp blade.
"My lord!" Lefizart's face was desolate, his feet knelt on the ground, and his voice was excited, "I heard that you have issued a war readiness order on the Internet, as long as the adults don't kill me, I will definitely kill the enemy bravely on the battlefield, that is, die, my subordinates hope to die on the battlefield and die like a Samar soldier, I don't want to be charged with a smuggler after death!"
"Okay, that's the soldier I'm leading with Salon!" Salon looked relieved and waved his hand to several of the guards, who got out of the way, and Ssalon turned away. With a deep face, he looked at the Elite River in the distance, and said in a low voice
"I'm not afraid to sue you, this time our enemies are very strong, they are five times our number, they are the most elite northern warriors, I don't know, I will still be able to go back alive to report to the Governor!
"Your Excellency, you can say it!" Lefizate said excitedly, "as long as his subordinates can do it."
"Okay, that's what you're waiting for!" Salon turned around, patted Lefizate on the shoulder, and whispered, "I know that there are three thousand five hundred rounds of military fuel bombs in the warehouse of the Bolaban Business Alliance, and I have sent someone to send the report of the call, but time is pressing, I must bring these things up first, and this depends on your uncle's help!", if you want to know what is going on, please log in to the muscle horn, there are more chapters, support the author, support the genuine reading!
