Just hearing this, Dewey's heart trembled!
Reinforcements?
Roland Empire has 200000 soldiers in the North! Storm Legion is one of the four main battle legions of the Empire. Whether it is well-equipped or powerful, it is the best in the Empire! 200000 strong soldiers are placed in the south end of the frozen forest, although it has always been said that it is to prevent Warcraft in the forest, but also to stop smuggling into the forest... In fact, another important role is training!
Only in that kind of hard environment can we train strong soldiers.
It's not that Dewey hasn't seen the stormtroopers. At the beginning, Andrea snorted, but said dispiritedly, "I can only make a breakthrough if I can get your advice from the sword sage of Yinxiao."
Hearing this, they seem to recognize each other, and I'm afraid they've even done something.
Dewey looked at Rodriguez, and Rodriguez said with a smile, "Duchess, do you remember that I went to the northern frozen forest after the coup? At that time, before I went into the forest alone, I met the patrol cavalry of the storm Corps. It was also a coincidence that the leader of the patrol cavalry was general Andrea. General Andrea wanted to stop me from entering the forest, but I didn't listen to him... "
Andrea snorted angrily: "you don't have to be so polite. At the beginning, you and I tried to stop you, but it wasn't your opponent. You beat me down a few times. You are a saint level warrior. The mainland is invincible. I'm a little level 6 knight. There are only a few hundred cavalry around me. I can't stop you. You're kind enough. There's no one who's hurt me. I'm very grateful for you. "
Dewey nodded, and Rodriguez said, "general Andrea, I'm doing it for you. Speaking of which, I still have some sincere respect for the officers and men of the storm Corps. You have suffered a lot for defending the border of the Empire. Moreover, all the officers and men of the storm corps are good. Let me tell you... "
He took a look at Dewey, who immediately became conscious and nodded slightly.
Rodriguez looked solemn and continued: "general Andrea, you are not in the imperial capital. You don't know the situation of the Empire. I don't ask you what's wrong in the north. I just say that you ask for reinforcements... But reinforcements, where is it so simple? You probably don't know. Under the current situation of the Empire, it's extremely difficult to ask the central government to send reinforcements! "
Andrea glared: "but the situation in the North!"
Rodriguez interrupted him and said, "there's something going on in the north, but is it peaceful elsewhere? If you don't say anything else, just say northwest! You know what happened in the Northwest last year, don't you? Grassland people invaded, 20000 cavalry besieged giliat City, a war! To tell you the truth, our province of Desa suffered some losses at that time. But what happened later? It's not that the peace talks have been hastily concluded and the peace has been calmed down! "
Andrea nodded. "I know that. It's written in the military's monthly newspaper."
Rodriguez said with a smile: "but it says that the northwest army beat back the prairie people, right? Hum, although you are not in the imperial capital, don't you know what the northwest army is like? "
Andrea's face changed, and suddenly there was a strange flash in his eyes.
"The situation at that time. In fact, the northwest army colluded with the grassland people and let them enter the pass, which caught us unprepared! Moreover, the northwest army Gang, under the pretext of spring drill, besieged our capital with tens of thousands of troops, cut off our news, and did not let us have a chance to send reinforcements! If it wasn't for us, Duke tulip, who was smart and tactful. If we break that game, I'm afraid we'll lose that battle long ago! Northwest army wolf ambition, grassland people are ready to move! At this time, the situation in the northwest is very rotten. There is no such situation. The emperor can send a soldier to come here! You want reinforcements. We want reinforcements in Northwest China! But where are reinforcements coming from? "
Rodriguez's last question silenced general Andrea.
"The main battle corps of the Empire. The northwest army has become a separatist warlord. It is rare that they are not rebellious. But what else can we expect? The regiment of the south is far away from the southern swamp garrison, and to tell you the truth. Since the establishment of the navy in the Empire, every time the Navy expanded, people were drawn from the southern army, because the southerners were good at water and the northerners were bad at it. How many times has the Navy been expanded during the reign of his majesty? The southern army has been transferred again. How many elite soldiers have gone? Later, the Imperial military expenditure did not continue, and the recruitment of the southern Legion had been delayed. Now the southern Legion. How much combat power can we have? I see. There's probably only one empty shelf left! "
Andrea was silent for a long time. Then he sighed: "when it comes to military spending, who is not like this! Even our storm corps, the arrears of military expenditure are getting worse year by year! It forces us generals to look for money everywhere! "
Du Wei suddenly thought of the gold cave outside the imperial capital. It's just the military background, which is used to raise military funds?
"That's it. The Southern Army doesn't have to count on it. Do you count on the royal city guards?" Rodriguez laughed and said: "the coup the year before last, the second division of Wangcheng was thoroughly cleaned! Twenty thousand talents, none of them! Although the reserve army was called up later, I don't think I have to say how much combat power the new recruits can have. What's more, the imperial capital is located in the middle of the mainland. How far is it from the military territory in Northwest China? Hum, if it's a quick march, I'm afraid it will only take a few days to get under the gate of the imperial capital! In this case, how can the Regent transfer the imperial city guards to you? Once the military strength of the imperial capital is drawn more, it is difficult to protect the Northwest lugao, and he will not have any idea in his heart! But apart from that, where else could the Empire have a field army? As for the local garrisons... General Andrea, the combat effectiveness of the local garrisons should be put aside first. But since the Empire was a thousand years old, are there still few private armies in the territory of the rich and noble families? Once the local garrison has drawn more, it is hard to guarantee that no careerist will take the opportunity to rise! At that time, it will be the state of continental scuffle when the Augustine Dynasty was founded two hundred years ago! "
Dewey can't help but praise when he heard this... Rodriguez, it seems that he is not only good at martial arts, but also good at insight and mouth! I am worthy of being a disciple of blue ocean“ So, it's about asking for reinforcements... "Andrea's face was filled with worry“ So I said, some things are not straightforward. You are not in DIDU. I don't know what happened to DIDU. The Duke of tulip is the most trusted Minister of the Regent of the Empire at present. There are many things that only he can influence the Regent's decision! If you're not polite, even if the prime minister says ten words today, it may not be as good as the Duchess. You need military affairs when you go back to the imperial capital this time. You might as well tell the Duchess first to see if he can help you... Besides, it's not to divulge military aircraft. As long as the Duchess returns to the imperial capital, what you report to the military headquarters, the Regent will tell us all about the Duchess in a day. " Andrea weighed it in his mind. First of all, it's really not a very confidential military affair. Anyway, when it comes to the imperial capital, the news will always spread. Secondly, the tulip Duke has been very powerful in the past two years. I have heard of his reputation in the north. At the beginning, I personally picked up the young man in the frozen forest. It seems that he is now an important minister under one person and above ten thousand people. Many people even bet that the young Duke, less than 25 years old, will become the youngest prime minister in the history of the Empire( The current prime minister is an old man in the age of Augustine VI. although the Regent did not touch him, everyone knows that he has been elevated. If there is such a big man who can speak for himself, maybe this time it will be... General Andrea sighed, his eyes were full of worry, finally patted the table, and then said, "send some brothers to guard around, don't let other people come near, clean up the hall for me!" Immediately the ten cavalry stood up and drove the innkeeper and the waiters to the back. They checked the hall carefully and left several guards outside. After all this, general Andrea clenched his teeth: "Duke, just six days ago, you must have felt the abnormal movement of the earth oscillation, too?" Six days ago, Dewey calculated the day. It was the day when Baihe Chou and the Pope fought each other in the cold spring pass! Then Andrea dipped his fingers in water and drew a pattern on the table
