Qin Emperor

Leo said: Your Majesty, let us think calmly first. Check, this Qin City was originally a very small city in the Milan Empire. It has changed since the Qin City lord Ye Yinxiu came there. This The lord of Qin City, who was born in the Eight Sects of Donglong, now has a group of forces that cannot be ignored. Obviously, he should be an ally with the Milan Empire now, so he appears on the eastern battlefield, the most dangerous battlefield in Milan. Although Qin The city brought us huge losses and even reversed the situation of the war. But at the same time, it also told us in disguise that the defensive strength of the Milan Empire's eastern front was as weak as we judged. Otherwise, why didn't these Qin City people show up? What about the northern front or the southern front of the main battlefield?”

Della Valle nodded and agreed with Dario's statement, Go on.

Dario continued: The main reason why we suffered a big loss at the hands of the Qincheng people was that we underestimated the enemy and also made certain tactical mistakes. After being cut off by the opponent at lightning speed, our logistics supplies Serious consequences occurred later. Landias' persecution did put a lot of pressure on us. But at this time, I think we should not act too hastily. Instead of recklessly launching another attack on the Milan Empire, it is better to stabilize it first Come down and consolidate our own foundation. Only in this way can our attack on Milan be effective.

The Minister of Finance on the side stood up and said: I agree with the Prime Minister's opinion. The continuous transportation of logistics supplies has stretched our country's financial resources, and it is not suitable to launch a large-scale war in a short period of time.

Dario nodded and said: That's right. In my opinion, the Eastern Legion of the Milan Empire is not something to be afraid of. Although we suffered heavy losses in this war, as the defender of the city, their losses will not be less. It will only make the Milan Empire's defense on the eastern front even weaker. The biggest threat to us is those people from Qin City. According to the situation that Marshal Kusler has fought with them several times. The number of this Qin City army is about There are about three thousand people. They are divided into several races, including the extremely fast and powerful cavalry, the Beamon Legion, and some magicians with special combat capabilities. They move very fast, which is why they cannot be defeated by Kus The reason for Marshal Le's capture. At the same time, if my guess is correct, there is a hidden force in this Qincheng army, which can bring them enough information, so that these Qincheng people can always be at the most critical moment. Escape from our siege. Marshal Kussler is helpless.

Della Valle sighed and said: But, what power do we have to stop them now? Everyone must know that all the main military forces of our country are invested in the battlefield ahead. I believe what the Prime Minister said, these Qincheng people must have Special methods are used to obtain accurate information and grasp the movements of our army. In this way, unless our army can form a huge encirclement so that they have nowhere to escape, otherwise. With their mobility, we do not even have a chance to capture it.

After discussing the situation, Dario finally came up with his own solution, Your Majesty, in accordance with your opinion, we can start from several aspects now. First of all, don't let Marshal Kussler work tirelessly to catch up with the opponent. There is no meaning at all, it can only further consume the combat effectiveness of Marshal Kusler and the army. They have just experienced a war, and what they need now is repair.

so. The first point is to let Marshal Kussler lead the main army to carry out repairs at home. Only the most elite 50,000 cavalry were selected, ready to respond at any time. As long as there is a period of recuperation, I believe that our country's main army will be able to regain its strength.

Della Valle said: Of course it is possible. But what about those people in Qin City? Our logistics supply force was once defeated by them with three thousand to twenty thousand. Although I can't wait to break them into thousands of pieces. But I have to Recognize their fighting prowess.”

A cold light flashed in Dario's eyes, Although the individual combat capabilities of the Qin City army are strong, they have forgotten that after all, this is our country, the Kingdom of Foluo, not their Qin City. If you want to turn this If the Zhiqin City army is completely destroyed, we need to open a large enough net for them to let them fall into the trap. Although we will lose wealth in units of cities, as long as they are destroyed. As long as we can attack When you enter Milan, are you afraid that you won't get back what you lost?

Della Valle's eyes lit up, I understand what you mean, but how to weave this web?

Dario said solemnly: After entering our city, the Qincheng people only killed the nobles but did not hurt the civilians. This shows that they are very rational. But this also affects the interests of our nobles. If this continues, what will happen to the nobles? Survive? Your Majesty, although our country mainly fights

On the front lines, but that doesn't mean everything.

Della Valle finally understood what Dario meant. You mean, the nobles' private armies?

Daario glanced at the important ministers of the kingdom around him. Who can stand in this hall who is not a noble? He nodded and said: Your Majesty, every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. I am willing to contribute all the three thousand private soldiers under my rule to the country. For the future of our country...

After hearing what Dario said, the faces of the surrounding Florian ministers suddenly began to look a little unnatural.

Among the nobles, especially those who own territories, they all have a certain number of private soldiers. These private soldiers are not part of the national establishment and are trained and paid by the nobles themselves. Different levels of nobles can have different numbers of private soldiers. The highest prince can have ten thousand private soldiers, secondly, the duke can have five thousand private soldiers, a marquis like Dario can have three thousand private soldiers, and the earl can have one thousand private soldiers. If the viscount owns a fief, he can also have five hundred private soldiers. The baronet is one hundred, which is negligible.

Which country doesn't have many nobles? After Dario's reminder, Della Valle remembered that there was such a force in the country.

It was obviously impossible for the big cities that Ye Yinzhu attacked to become the territory of nobles. Most of the nobles he killed had entered big cities after their decline. The truly rich and powerful nobles are all in their own territories, and private soldiers are their most advantageous weapons to control their territories, bully civilians, and protect their own interests.

When Dario said this, the important ministers present had already scolded even his eighteenth generation ancestors in their hearts. Turn in private soldiers? It would be weird to have it back. That was the power that the nobles spent countless efforts to accumulate.

No one is willing to hand over their private soldiers, but at this time, under the scorching eyes of King Forro Della Valle, what else can these important ministers of the kingdom do?

As a king, Della Valle naturally knows the importance of private soldiers to the nobles, and also understands that it is unrealistic to force these nobles to hand over their private weapons, but at this time, there is no better way than this. .

Slowly walking down from the throne, Della Valle said in a deep voice: Everyone, you should have heard what the King and Prime Minister Dario said just now. Our country is in danger. I understand what you are thinking, who I am not willing to hand over my last capital. But have you ever thought about whether you can block the Qincheng people's attack with your private armed forces? Now, only by gathering all the strength together can this cancer be completely eradicated. Here, as a king, I promise you that as long as the Qincheng army is eradicated, your private soldiers can be returned immediately. Those who die on the battlefield will be compensated by the country. Those who have made meritorious deeds on the battlefield will also be credited to you. Among the titles. If we can invade the Milan Empire in the near future, the land obtained will be given priority to those who have made merit in this battle.

The ministers looked at each other, and the light in their eyes gradually brightened. They all knew that this was Della Valle's bottom line. Under the tremendous pressure and internal and external troubles brought by Randias, His Majesty the King no longer had any reservations.

At least one thing they recognized was that once Foluo was finished, they would have nothing to gain.

Your Majesty, I am willing to hand over all private soldiers to the unified command of the country. Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. The Finance Minister, who was wearing the same pants as Prime Minister Dario, immediately came out and showed his value in this opportunity to provide help in times of need. .

Okay. Where is the clerk? Take notes.

Under the leadership of the Minister of Finance, although the ministers still had hesitation in their hearts, no one dared to wait any longer. Since you must contribute your own private soldiers, it is better to contribute them early so as to leave a good impression on His Majesty the King.

Della Valle watched the ministers register the number of their private soldiers, slowly walked to Dario, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: Dario, if we can win the final victory in this war, Victory, I will give you the first credit.

Dario bowed and said: Your Majesty, I don't deserve the credit. Since we now have such a force that the other party doesn't know about, it's time to plan how to give the people of Qin City a painful blow. The Qin City army is like Cunning fox, we only have one chance, if we can’t seize it, it will be difficult for them to take the bait in the future.”

Della Valle nodded, After leaving the court, I will wait for you in the bedroom. This news must be kept secret.
