Lord of the People: I rely on cheating for hegemony

Chapter 544 Battle Meeting
At 8:31 p.m. on August 6st in the third year of Tianxuan, the Army and Navy joint meeting originally planned to be held on September 9st was held earlier because Qu Mao, Kong Ming and Xuande had already arrived at Yidao Military Port to inspect the Navy's preparations for war.

Seeing the navy's preparations for war, Qu Mao was relieved a lot.

Sylvia Ocean's administration of the navy is still relatively strict, so Qu Mao is not worried that there will be problems.

Now that the navy is already on regular patrols and strengthening navigation training, the probability that Liuwang Principality will be caught off guard by attacking the territory of Yi Town is infinitely close to zero.

When Zhao Pan and Chafidel arrived at the Yidao Military Port, Sylvia Ocean, Fur Swamp, Qu Mao, Kong Ming, and Xuande had already been waiting for a long time in the Yidao Military Port Operation Conference Room.

Seeing that everyone was here, Qu Mao didn't waste time, and said straight to the point: "I hope everyone can discuss how we can capture as many prisoners of war as possible. Soldiers, as long as they are captured alive by us, they have a high probability of becoming our high-quality residents.

Everyone should be clear that the soldiers of Liuwang Principality's army were also Lord Su Yan's subjects before, so the transformation of the prisoners of war captured by the enemy this time is far more convenient than the prisoners of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance, and the trouble after transformation will be much less .

By the way, Zhao Pan, I asked you to confirm the news of the enemy commander with Sunan in advance, did you do it? "

Zhao Pan looked at Qu Mao innocently, and said, "Master, didn't you let Lord Xinping and Lord Su Yan contact Lord Sunan? It was embarrassing for my subordinates to communicate remotely with Lord Sunan.

However, Lord Sunan also patiently told his subordinates.

The commander-in-chief of Liuwang Duchy is a general, and his title is earl. His name is Zhang Zhiyong.

Zhang Zhiyong and his family were neither loyal to the original Liusu Duke's royal family nor to the current ruler of the Liuwang Dukedom. "

Qu Mao nodded and said: "Since it is a neutral force, it must not come up and fight us to death. We still have a chance to persuade Su Yan to surrender. When I go back, I will have a good exchange with Su Yan."

Zhao Pan said: "My lord, Lord Su Yan specifically told my subordinates that Liu Wang Principality has changed a military policy: that is, the commanding generals will lose half of their troops when they go to war, and they will be punished after the war."

Kong Ming waved his goose feather fan and said, "My lords, you must remember this policy well, maybe you can make use of it.

Destroying half of the invading enemy's troops, or capturing half of the enemy's troops, is a loss of half of the troops. At that time, the enemy's commander will be a little panicked. "

Sylvia Ocean said: "My lord, if they don't come to the edge of our Yi Town territory, the subordinates are sure enough to make them lose half of their troops."

Chafidel said: "Sylvia, if you don't consider other things, I believe that your navy will defeat all 500 warships of Liuwang Principality at sea, but if you defeat all their warships and soldiers at sea, feed the fish?

Aren't we thinking about how to capture more prisoners of war alive? That's why Mr. Zhao Pan and I came to Yidao Naval Port to discuss with you and Mr. Fuer?
Even if your navy doesn't mobilize and allows Liuwang Principality's invading troops to land on Yi Island, our army is sure to destroy half of the enemy's troops in an instant, but isn't it useless? "

Sylvia Oshen glanced at Chafidel, and just about to say something, Qu Mao stopped her with a wave of his hand and said, "Chafidel, Sylvia, including Zhao Pan and Fuer, now you want to The thing to consider is not simply to win the war, but how to win the war to maximize the benefits.

From a long-term point of view, Liuwang Principality may only come into our field of vision ahead of time and become our earliest enemy because it is the closest to our territory of Yi Town.

In the future, the forces on the entire continent, including the forces of the aborigines and the Lord of the Chosen may be the enemy of our Yizhen territory. In this context, you think we only have a total population of about 170 million, 60 Can the total strength of the navy and army of more than [-] be able to deal with the invasion from the entire continent?

Therefore, I was thinking, in this first battle, we should bring as little stagnation to the development of Yi Town's territory as possible, capture as many vital forces as possible, and use Lord Su Yan's influence among the invading fighters of Liuwang Principality to quickly defeat the enemy. These POWs digest.

Even, we dare not directly use the surrendered troops of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance, but we can directly recruit the prisoners of the Liuwang Principality as surrendered soldiers instead of taking the steps of recruiting them to surrender and transfer them to residents. "

Kong Ming waved his goose feather fan and said, "Masters Chafidel, Zhao Pan, Fuer, and Sylvia, why don't I translate your words for you? 20 troops, we directly captured 15 and transformed them into our soldiers.

The 15 surrendered soldiers were directly used as soldiers in the territory of Yi Town, whether they were naval soldiers or army soldiers.

With this goal in mind, let's discuss our battle plan and how to fight to ensure the realization of this goal. "

Xuande also said: "The first three anti-invasion and defensive battles in Yizhen's territory were all faced with enemies that were several times or even dozens of times our size, and we were able to win the final victory.

This time we are evenly matched, and no one will doubt that we will not win this war. If we just want to win this war, there is no need for me, Lord Kong Ming, and Lord to come here.

Therefore, it is our difficulty to capture more prisoners of war. "

Zhao Pan nodded and said, "My lord, although the subordinates and the other four have not yet come up with a clear plan, but on behalf of the four of us, the subordinates promise to the lord that at the end of this war, at least 16 more people will be added to our territory of Yi Town." , including the surrender of 15 troops, whether it is the army or the navy.

Do you three have any objections? "

Chafidel nodded, Sylvia Oxen glanced at Zhao Pan, and Fure Swamp glanced at Zhao Pan, then turned his head away without even looking at Zhao Pan.

Qu Mao clapped his hands and said, "Very good, everyone is very ambitious.

Although Zhao Pan is not very reliable, he can basically do what he promised.

Sylvia, our navy basically has long-range strikes within 500 meters, comparable to super warships, so the navy has to bear more responsibilities in the capture of prisoners.

At the beginning of September, I will still purchase 9 self-owned residents with ordinary qualifications, so as to increase our total population to 9.99 million. Counting these 170, we can almost set the total population target of 16 million. "

Sylvia Ocean said: "My lord, the three of you are busy first, and the four of us continue to discuss the details of the operation. A war without a plan will easily increase casualties."

"Okay, the four of you discuss."
