Chapter 187 Big Plan

"Fair and strict" is a serious proposition.They are all old politicians from the aristocratic circle, and they can see the real purpose of Chris IX at a glance.

Propaganda can be expanded, but military merit assessment cannot cross the line.This is the foundation of the Principality of Moxi, and it must not be broken.

After all, the awesomeness is blown out, and the ordinary people are fooled, but the people in power above cannot be fooled.

Whether it's the generals on the front line or the princes and nobles behind, you can see the moisture in it at a glance.

If a convincing result cannot be given, many things will be difficult to handle later.

"Your Majesty, my descendants are all descendants of the kingdom, and they participated in the war mainly to expel the orcs, and they don't care about military rewards.

Now the frontline battle situation is urgent, everything is focused on the battlefield, it is not suitable to come back to participate in the reward and celebration.

Personal suggestion: Put aside the issue of rewards first, and then conduct a unified evaluation after the war is over.

On the contrary, it is the guest army who participated in the war. They have no obligation to fight for the kingdom, and they must be rewarded heavily as an encouragement. "

Prime Minister Herceg said helplessly.

Can't find it cheap.Then you must reflect the "high character and integrity" side. Prestige is never too much.

The king handed over the matter of rewards to them, which meant that the military merits could only be suppressed, and could not be extended beyond the rules.

As a pragmatic nobleman, Prime Minister Herceg's thinking is very simple.Nominal rewards may be omitted, but substantial benefits must be obtained.

The war is not over yet, talking about fiefdoms is just bullshit.Borderlands is basically on the front line, who knows if it can be taken back from the orcs.

Wouldn't it be a tragedy if the obtained fief fell into the hands of the orcs and could not be taken back, and became an empty lord.

What's more, although the military achievements this time are great, there are too many people who can't stand to share them.So many second generations are divided up together, and there are only a few who fall on everyone's head in the end.

Gold, silver, jewellery, beauties in fragrant cars, they are no shortage of big nobles.It's better to accumulate military merits there first, and settle them together after the war.

Compared with these tasteless rewards, it is better to take the opportunity to seek a higher military position and obtain substantial benefits.

He didn't mention it directly, because Prime Minister Herceg had no idea about his son's ability.Promotion is a good thing, but now is a time of war.

It is easy to cause accidents if the ability and position do not match.

The new 23rd Legion was able to stop the orcs from breaking through, not only because of the smooth wind, but also the guards arranged by each family for the younger generations also played an important role.

In contrast, the military exploits of outsiders like the Wrightshire Legion are easier to deal with.

"In the Wright County Legion, are there any nobles who want to obtain fiefdoms in our Principality of Moxie?"

Chris IX asked with concern.

Elite troops, everyone is greedy.

If he can dig the foot of the Alpha Kingdom, he will definitely not be stingy with rewards.Even if the rewards are heavier, everyone can understand.

Anyway, most of the unclaimed fiefdoms are now concentrated in the border areas. Some people are willing to go to the mines, and everyone is happy to relax.

"Your Majesty, we have already contacted these nobles secretly. Maybe it is hard to leave the homeland, and the final result is not optimistic."

Renato replied slightly embarrassed.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is really working hard, but unfortunately everyone is doing well in the Alpha Kingdom, and there is no thought of changing jobs at all.

No one is a fool. Everyone avoids the land in the northern border area of ​​the Alpha Kingdom. How could it be possible to come over to guard the frontier for the Principality of Moxi?

In particular, the promised fief is still in the hands of the orc army, and it is unknown whether it can be taken back, let alone the matter.

Turning around and sighing, Chris IX said angrily: "Forget it, since they don't want to come over, then forget it.

The order was passed on, and Crown Prince Caesar was conferred the title of Earl of Fort Augustus, and Hudson was conferred the title of Earl of Moonfall Bay.

For the rest of the nobles, watch and give them titles!

In addition, prepare some wine and food to serve the army, and the treasury allocates 20 gold coins to give rewards to the officers and soldiers on the front line. "

There is no doubt that such a generous reward must be an honorary nobleman.Although the place name was brought, it was only to show "glory".

If you want to become a real earl, unless you really fight the "Turning Battle" in the propaganda, or severely damage the orc army on the battlefield.

If you want to accumulate military merits, you have to accumulate at least a dozen times to have any hope of winning at this level.

It's not that the threshold is high, it's that land resources are limited.In a situation where there are many monks and few meat, the competition is naturally fierce.

If you want to lower this threshold, unless the situation of the war further erodes, there will be more unclaimed lands in the Principality of Moxi.

In a sense, this is also the biggest drawback of the noble military title system.When it develops to a certain level, there will be no land to seal.

If the orcs hadn't broken through the defense line of Fort Augustus and harmed the nobles in the large land to the north, the Principality of Moxi wouldn't even be able to get a decent fief.

……

"Send the propaganda battle report of the Principality of Moxi back to the country as soon as possible, and copy a copy for the remaining legions to read.

The order that everyone received together, the Wrightshire Legion has already made great achievements, but they are still dawdling on the road, what is this like! "

Crown Prince Caesar said in a good mood.

Although he was dissatisfied with Hudson's behavior of treating him as an oil bottle, it did not affect his joy for the victory on the battlefield.

As the supreme commander of the Alpha Kingdom's expeditionary force, he is responsible for all the victories on the front line.

Correspondingly, if the troops under his command were defeated, he also had his responsibility.

To advertise the Wrightshire victory was to advertise himself.

As long as he doesn't tell about the small change that happened before, no one will know.

In the face of interests, a little unpleasantness is not worth mentioning at all.

Instead of worrying about these details, it is better to turn passive into active, and let this war become a booster for his prestige.

Deep down, the seeds of Caesar's unwillingness are also sprouting.

Hudson dared to be tough in front of him, it was because the Wright County Army could fight.

Since ancient times, arrogant soldiers have not been so easy to command, and everyone has expected it in advance.

Switching to an ordinary legion, there is no such confidence.Dare to prick in front of the commander, and the shoes will be put on in minutes.

Constantly urging the subsequent legions to speed up, it is because Crown Prince Caesar has no soldiers in his hands.No matter how many ideas I have in my mind, I don't have the ability to implement them.

"Your Highness, according to your will, re-number the six legions. At present, the Second and Third Legions of the Expeditionary Army have entered the Principality of Moxi.

According to the current marching speed, they will be able to reach the capital within five days.

The Fourth Army Corps has also arrived at the border and is expected to arrive within ten days.

The speed of the remaining two legions was slightly slower.It is estimated that in half a month, they will also be able to reach the capital.

Compared with other countries, this speed is actually not slow.You must know that reinforcements are still on the way to the nearest Principality of Orton. "

Count Jose persuaded.

As a close minister of the royal family, he didn't want to see the crown prince falling out with the nobles below.

Although the response speed of the latter legions was indeed a bit slower, it was also due to their special circumstances.

With the impromptu team, able to have the current speed, the people below also worked hard.

It is obviously a cannon fodder army, but insisting on demanding others with the standards of an elite army, isn't this deliberately embarrassing others?

The speed of the march was second, and what he was most worried about was that Crown Prince Caesar would use the cannon fodder army as an elite army in order to show his ability.

Judging from the reaction of the royal family, if the king thinks that the crown prince has military capabilities, how could he not equip a direct army?

The current situation is essentially that the king has no confidence in the crown prince's military capabilities, and he is reluctant to bring out the elite to make him suffer.

Sending them over to gain reputation is essentially using the private army of nobles as guinea pigs for experiments on their sons.

If you succeed, you will earn blood. If you fail, you will lose a few cannon fodder, and the Alpha Kingdom can afford it.

The plan is correct, but the situation can't stand the rapid changes.

The Wrightshire Legion's good start has already earned the prestige for Crown Prince Caesar.

At this time, what is most needed is not to make persistent efforts and create greater glories, but to stabilize the results.

If you act blindly and cause a big defeat, the previous achievements will be in vain.

What the royal family needs to cultivate is an heir to the king, not the so-called military god.

Military exploits are just embellishments on the King's Road. A keen political sense and mature political skills are what the crown prince needs most.

"Maybe I'm too impatient, the situation on the front line of the Principality of Moxi is worse than expected.

Tens of thousands of orc troops broke in, but the defenders did not report the news in time.

I don't know if it's the aristocratic officers on the front line who are dereliction of duty, or the bureaucrats in the capital have some problems, but this is very dangerous.

Fortunately, there were not many orcs coming this time, and they happened to be hit by the Wrightshire Legion, which cut out the hidden dangers in advance.

If the orcs dispatched an army of [-] and sneaked in secretly, the defenders on the front line still don't know anything, where do you think they will attack?

More than 200 years ago, my Alpha Kingdom met once! "

Crown Prince Caesar said with a sneer.

How about the military ability, no one knows what level it is without the opportunity to go to the battlefield.

However, Caesar had memorized the history books fluently since he was a child.When I ran into a familiar plot, I naturally had an association.

After all, he grew up in the royal family, and he still has political savvy.When he found something was wrong, he didn't report it to the Principality of Moxi immediately.

For this kind of invisible matter, it doesn't take much credit if the reminder is correct, and it is easy to attract complaints if the reminder is wrong.

Even though he spent these days happily in the Principality of Moxi, Caesar still did not forget his identity.

"Your Highness, you want to..."

In the middle of speaking, Count Jose swallowed it back.

There is no way, the risk of this plan is too great.

It’s okay if the guess is wrong, no one will know anyway, so just pretend nothing happened.

Once the judgment is correct, the opportunity to draw millet from the fire has indeed come.

The question is, with their strength, can they really turn the tide?

In case of a wrong operation, the Principality of Moxi was directly killed by the orcs, and the orc army drove straight in, and the Alpha Kingdom had to face greater pressure.

"Your Excellency, such a good opportunity, how can we not try it?

The Principality of Moxi was severely underprepared for the orc invasion. Even now, many people have not changed their minds.

Coupled with the gap in strength between the two sides, it is still unknown whether they can survive the defense for half a year.

Don't look at the fact that there are only more than 60 orcs on the front line, but this number is increasing every day.

Even if the reinforcements promised by various countries are all in place on time, it will last for an extra month or two.

If they don't make dangerous moves and find opportunities to weaken the strength of the orcs, it will only be a matter of time before the Principality of Moxi collapses. "

Caesar said happily.

After coming to the front for so long, this was the first time he found a fighter plane.If he didn't give it a try, he would really be unwilling.

Originally, he was not so confident, but the victory of the Wrightshire Army strengthened his determination.

Even if the strength of the next few legions is greatly reduced, they are still soldiers who have been trained for more than a year, and their combat effectiveness is still somewhat.

Combining the strength of the six legions, joining hands with the Mosi people, and adding reinforcements from nearby countries that are about to arrive, it is still very likely to succeed in eating the orc army that is alone and deep.

Even if the plan fails, Dapez will not fall in a short time, and countries still have a chance to rescue.

The appearance of a substantive threat will also allow the Race Alliance to make a rescue decision as soon as possible to a certain extent.

"Your Highness, it is best to consult the Hudson Legion Commander for this plan.

If we want to encircle and annihilate the orc army that has gone deep into the lone army, among the troops we can mobilize, the most effective one is the First Legion. "

Earl Jose said bravely.

I have to admit that the scene described by Caesar is indeed very tempting.

Not to mention direct annihilation, even if they just defeat the orc army that is alone and deep, they can reap huge political benefits.

Giving charcoal in the snow is always better than icing on the cake.If the Principality of Moxi is not in danger, how can they highlight their importance?

But for some reason, he always felt that he had no idea.Deep in his heart, there is always a voice telling him: be cautious, be cautious.

……

After the rain was over, looking at the rainbow rising in the sky, Hudson decided to stay in place for another day.

There is no way, the muddy road is really not suitable for marching.Even if the soldiers can hold on, the vehicles can't.

Deep down in his heart, he has complained more than once about the way of the Mosi people.This is the lifeline of traffic leading to the front line, and it is actually a pure natural dirt road.

In normal times, muddy roads are not a big problem at all.But now is a time of war, and bad roads will directly affect logistics and transportation.

It's useless to complain, even if you want to build roads at this time, it's too late in time.

The summer flames are poisonous enough, and the muddy road is almost dry after a day in the sun.

As for the bumpy ground, there is only one way to repair it.Anyway, that's how everyone came here, Moxi people are not in a hurry, and he doesn't bother to be a villain.

"Legion Commander, there is a group of Moxi sergeants escorting supplies outside, it is said that they are here to work for the army.

The members of the new 23rd Legion have confirmed their identities, and now they are waiting for you to preside over the overall situation. "

After hearing what the chief guard said, Hudson nodded slightly.

After a big victory, how could the Principality of Moxi not express it?

Treat meritorious ministers poorly, who will work hard in the future!

Without too much delay, after changing into a military uniform, Hudson appeared outside the tent.

It is impossible to say that I am not moved at all when I look at the army of soldiers who are half covered in mud.

Judging from the situation, the labor force must have come here in the rain.

The work can achieve this step, which is enough to prove that the princes and nobles above attach great importance to this war.

The feeling of being valued is always refreshing.
