"You have been by my side, and you should have gone through the most chaotic stage more than a year ago." Sauron said to Yu Le, "At that time, there were dozens of small groups in Xiaya, each working independently. ** **It's just one of them.
These small groups turned on each other, issuing conflicting orders and bringing the entire alliance to a virtual halt. Moreover, their behavior of dictating the military has almost never stopped, and sometimes there are even funny scenes. For example, in the morning, one group ordered the military to attack another group, but the military had not responded. In the afternoon, another group ordered the military to attack the first group. Then the third group, the fourth group and many other groups got involved, and even if the military insisted on not moving, they were thrown into chaos.
Now, the new Majesty has succeeded to the throne, and the remaining forces of the small groups have been eliminated one by one. It seems that the situation has improved. But the problem is that our new Majesty is not like a monarch who fully considers the alliance. Many actions are harmful to the alliance in far-reaching terms. "
Sighing softly, Sauron said seriously: "Take it as an example to ask us to send troops to Sarin this time. It is obviously unwise. In the past three years, Xiaya has continued to be in chaos, but Sarin has been developing at a terrifying speed. Atlanta City, in particular, is no weaker than any city on the continent. Sending troops to such a city, regardless of whether they can successfully enter the city, the impact will not be as simple as imagined.
In addition, I don't know where Sarin found a group of natural warriors from the Northern Wasteland - the Spark tribe, but the bravery they showed alone is enough to make us vigilant. Theoretically, only tens of thousands of well-trained Sparks can drastically change the distribution of military power on the border. Salin publicly stated that there were less than 10,000 Sparks recruited into the army, but no one could guarantee the true situation. If the number of Sparks in Sarin's army is several times that announced, then if we send troops to Sarin, a dangerous explosive barrel may be ignited and we will be blown to pieces.
Of course, these are all trivial matters. In contrast, the most worrying thing is the lord of Sarin - Richard. Three years ago, you experienced the battle we fought against the Truth Society personally. The reason why we did not fail and were able to reverse the situation in the end was all because of the other party. At that time, the opponent's strength had already reached an astonishing level - no one in the army could match it. Perhaps only by allowing many strong men in the alliance to join forces could there be a chance of victory.
About a year after the end of the National War, the other party had a conflict with the lords of neighboring territories, and we arranged to meet at the Sarin border. I rushed over and witnessed the other party using magic to establish power. By that time, the other party's strength had already improved. Now, two years have passed since that time, and it is really difficult to determine how terrifying the other party is now. If we really send troops to Sarin and anger the other party, it's hard to say how things will develop. If it goes worse and causes a chain reaction, maybe Char will be in chaos again just after Char has stabilized.
It is precisely with this in mind that I have been hesitating these days. Would it be a good choice to completely hand over the power of commanding the army to the new His Majesty now? Or... wait and see, at least delay it for a while, and don't let the army stand on the opposite side of Sarin so quickly... "
"But general, we can't keep delaying it like this, right?" Yule looked at Sauron and said.
"Of course I know." Sauron sighed, "If it's just that Xia Ya keeps passing on orders, then it's nothing. Don't say twelve copies, even one hundred and twenty copies, I can ignore it. I'm afraid that Xia Ya can't hold back, meeting... ... "
At this point, Sauron stopped talking and saw a subordinate approaching outside the door.
"Come in." Sauron waved.
"Yes." His subordinates walked in and reported quickly, "General, just now, a person claiming to be a special envoy entered the reef castle and said that he had brought an order from His Majesty Char to see you directly."
"Well, it seems that the thing you are most worried about... has already happened." After hearing this, Sauron looked at Yu Ledao.
Yule: "..."
... ...
after an hour.
The commander-in-chief's residence, the command room.
A man in his thirties walked in, wearing a gorgeous blue robe, with a beard on the left and right sides of his lips, which was extremely neatly trimmed, as if it was painted on.
The man walked into the command room and did not show any arrogant attitude after seeing Solon. He moved his beard and bowed deeply to greet you: "General Solon Bonaparte, I finally meet you. I am very famous for you." I have long admired your intelligence and loyalty to the alliance. By the way, let me introduce myself. My name is Ax Xia Zuo. I came from the east, carrying His Majesty's personal orders with me."
"Hello, Mr. Xia Zuo." Sauron said, "I don't know what the personal order His Majesty asked you to bring."
"Actually... it's not a too serious matter." Xia Zuo smiled, "That's it. Because of the Sarin incident, His Majesty sent more than ten orders to the Reef Castle in the past three days. These must be The general has received the order. However, His Majesty has not seen the general in action and has not seen the general sending anyone to Sarin. He is a little confused about this and asked me to come here to see if there is anything wrong? "
"Is there a problem, General?" At the end of the sentence, Xia Zuo looked at Sauron, "Are you not ready yet, or are there other reasons?"
"It's because we don't have enough troops." Sauron glanced at Xia Zuo and explained aloud, "Although I want to execute the order, there are currently no troops to send."
"Insufficient troops, no troops to send?" Xia Zuo's eyes flashed after hearing the words, and he laughed, "General, you really know how to joke. There are hundreds of thousands of troops under your jurisdiction on this border. Just within a ten-mile radius of the Reef Castle, There are tens of thousands of troops, how come there are not enough troops?"
"The lack of troops depends not only on the number of troops, but also on whether they can meet the demand. There are indeed hundreds of thousands of troops on the border, but most of them have to guard important military areas and cannot be mobilized. There are still some that need to be used To guard against the Sika Kingdom - you also know that in the national war three years ago, although the Sika Kingdom was defeated and negotiated peace with us, many of them still harbor thoughts of revenge and have to guard against it.
These two things have occupied 90% of the army's personnel. In addition, the remaining 10% of the personnel need a series of things such as security, guarding, deployment, training, reorganization, etc... The statement that the military strength is insufficient is actually not true. It is a very accurate description of the current situation, and it is more appropriate to describe the extreme shortage of troops. Under such circumstances, it is really impossible to mobilize an extra team and send it to Sarin in a short time. "
"Is it true that no one can be mobilized?" Xia Zuo frowned and asked for confirmation.
"It's true that no one can be taken out." Sauron replied seriously.
