Alien Arms Empire

Chapter 13311332 Mixed troops

"No, we can't leave it completely to the Chinese! If they surrender, our position will be directly torn apart!" Liu Zhian shook his head in his underground bunker, rejecting the suggestions of his men.

Of course he can't trust those big Chinese people. They are just trying their best to conquer the Qing Dynasty and conquer the Qing Dynasty. They are not worthy of trust at all.

Once these re-armed Dahua troops were defeated and surrendered, wouldn't the defense line that the Qin army had finally organized collapse again?

 But no matter how this kind of thing is arranged, some people will be dissatisfied in the end. Liu Zhian found that once things got complicated, he was obviously not enough as a commander.

 Before, he only commanded the Qin army to fight, and he was so easy to do that he didn't need to think about weird things at all. But things are obviously different now, and the work he needs to do has doubled.

 The first thing is how to coordinate and mobilize Dahua's servant army. These troops behave passively most of the time and only become excited when receiving supplies.

 That's right, these troops are only very active when they want something. As for fighting, in most cases they are just sages who do nothing but work.

 After all, these troops were trained by the military advisors of the Tang State, and most of the time they were very aware of the strength of the Tang State. They knew that if they resisted to the end, they would only attract more powerful firepower from Tang State.

Especially those old subordinates of Zhao Yu who fought from Fengjiang to the old capital. They were very aware of the strength of the Tang Army. At that time, as long as the Tang Army helped, there was no battle they could not win!

Now, Liu Zhian hopes that these people will fight against the Tang army, which is almost no different from wishful thinking. Therefore, he did not dare to let these troops act alone, because they were likely to surrender with weapons, equipment, map information, and the Qin army supervisors assigned to them...

It is impossible to expect such a unit to fight alone, so Liu Zhian can only split up such units and treat them as strengthened units and distribute them to all Qin army units.

For example, the Qin State's division had three regiments, but now it is no longer, it will have five regiments! The additional strength of the two regiments will be supplemented by Dahua troops, and these troops must also be dispersed and distributed to each company to ensure that they will not unite to sell off the Qin troops.

 But problems will still arise in this way. A more serious problem is that Dahua soldiers who are not strong in combat effectiveness and have weak fighting will will bring bad morale to the Qin army.

They will talk about how attractive and abundant the supplies of the Tang Empire are, how powerful the Tang troops are, and they will emphasize the preferential treatment policy of the Tang Empire for captives.

In short, they would tell every Qin soldier about the good things about the Tang Empire, and then the Qin troops would start spreading word of mouth among themselves, which directly led to the collapse of the Qin army's will to fight.

In the end, there was no other way. The senior generals of the Qin army could only issue an order prohibiting soldiers from talking about these issues. If caught, they would be severely punished.

 But the more this happens, the worse the situation of the troops becomes, and the increase in troops does not seem to be able to completely make up for the reduction in combat effectiveness. The result is that the Qin army's frontline troops appear to be strong, but in fact they are vulnerable. Liu Zhian was already overwhelmed by just dealing with these problems, but there was a third problem waiting for him.

That is the problem of the supply and treatment of the troops: How to coordinate the supply between the Qin army and the Dahua servant army? Everyone is eating together, but they are not blind.

You say we simply give preferential treatment to some Qin troops. The Chinese who serve together and obey orders in the same trench must have opinions: Why the **** am I working as hard as you, but in the end you eat better than me and have more bullets than me? What's the point?

But if you distribute these supplies evenly, the situation of dissatisfaction will be reversed, and the Qin army will have great opinions: I am a direct line army, and I am serious about going to the Three Banners. Why the **** do I eat the same food as you two hundred and fifty? What the **** is this nonsense?

 So Liu Zhian had to deal with these trivial matters when he was almost busy directing operations. In more than half a month, he lost a whole circle of weight, and his whole person was a little out of shape.

He has applied for support from Emperor Qin Yingduo and requested that several ministers be sent to the front line to support him and help him relieve the pressure.

 But this simple request has never been met, and Emperor Qin Yingduo also had a headache. Every time the person he wanted to choose would have an accident, and no matter what, he could not go to the front line to perform his duties.

These civil servants are not fools. Of course, they have their own calculations: most of the people who can be selected by Yingduo are the kind of candidates who are relatively mediocre, have little contribution, and are not liked by His Majesty the Emperor.

Because Yingduo was reluctant to send those who were capable and capable to the front line, because Liu Zhian was the one who used landmines on the front line. If he went to the front line to do business with him, he might suffer retaliation from the Tang State.

 Judging from the attitude of the Tang State in pursuing the Mirage State, as long as the Tang State does not participate in those excessive things, the Tang State will not hold him responsible for his crimes even if he wins for a while. But if you violate the convention, you will definitely be executed even if you have a prominent status.

 So they must draw a clear line with Liu Zhian. After being selected by Emperor Qin, they immediately took a leave of absence or simply resigned. Even worse, they may even injure themselves, break bones or something to avoid disaster.

As a result, Emperor Qin became entangled: he was really worried that the ministers he valued would go to Liu Zhian to get involved in the cause and effect, and would eventually be traced by the Tang State.

Even he didn't realize it himself, subconsciously he had begun to acquiesce that Qin was going to be defeated, and generals like Liu Zhian could only be held responsible for the defeat.

Because of this, Emperor Qin could only use delaying tactics and let Liu Zhi'an continue to be temporarily responsible for all frontline affairs. It seemed that he was trusting, but in fact he was just passing the blame.

"But general, the five additional divisions are all Dahua divisions. If we continue to disperse them according to the old method, the proportion of our own troops will be reduced again." The chief of staff said with some worry.

 He was promoted by Liu Zhian. From the moment he accepted Liu Zhian's promotion, he was inseparable from Liu Zhian. So he was very calm and was not affected by the landmine issue at all.

"...What is Chen Li doing over there? He has mobilized too few troops! Too few! Let him send the troops we want as soon as possible! Otherwise, if something goes wrong, he will be the sinner of Qin!" Liu Zhian frowned said with an eyebrow.
