289.Confirmation from Marshal Loren
289.Affirmation from Marshal Loren (page 2/2)
“This is a pretty good tactic. Letting your powerful neighbors help you shoulder part of the defense pressure is a pretty cunning strategy..
But it's not a bad thing for us, Thoros. Our soldiers have been fighting against their own people all year round. They lack the experience to deal with barbarians..
Let's use these Jackal soldiers to practice on the new soldiers' hands as a practical training to deal with the black disaster..”
“Of course our soldiers are fine! I believe that even a new soldier does not lack the courage to fight against the gnolls, but the problem is that I do not trust all the soldiers in East Prussia, Loren.”
General Soros finally speaks out about his concerns.
He observed the marshal's expression before telling him the bad news he had just received. He whispered：
“Those jackals crossed the border in large numbers two days ago, but last night, they plundered three villages and caused more than 200 casualties.”
“？”
The half-dwarf marshal's entire expression was stunned..
Then a visible anger burst out on his face, and he slammed his clenched fist on the table, causing the teacups in front of them to jump up and spilling the fragrant black tea everywhere..
“I have clearly set up a complete defense zone on the East Prussia border. Each defense zone is stationed by at least one coalition force. It's just a mere defeat of the jackals.！
It's not like the winged cavalry came over, how could there be such a big loophole in their defense?？”
he yelled：
“Who is the commander of that defense zone? I'm going to send him to a military court! This is simply dereliction of duty! No, this is collaboration and murder！”
The dwarf's loud voice made General Thoros want to cover his ears, but he knew he couldn't do this, otherwise he would be recorded in the book by the cautious marshal..
He sat up straight, and after Loren, who was like a lion, finished roaring, he reported with an expression that was more sad than heartbreaking.：
“All defense areas guarded by the pioneering corps and even our retinue troops are rock solid. The problem is a defense area belonging to the border guards..
When the jackals broke up and rushed into the village, the soldiers were still having a banquet..
They got the news even later than they did when they opened up the fortress, and the teams defending the three villages had already escaped before the war started..
I'm just glad now that it's the Jackals and not the regular army from Transia, otherwise this loophole would be enough to cause a shameful failure in our defense line..
The commander and deserter of that sector had already been hanged by the military judge, but this exposed a terrible problem, Loren, the local border guards we recruited were a mess..
I even think they are on the same side as our enemies！
It is precisely through this inaction method that we try to weaken the morale and strength of the Pioneer Legion, and smear the reputation of His Majesty and us by causing trouble to the local area and bullying men and women. Finally, we use food-grabbing and corruption to accept bribes. ways to increase our burden and weaken our fighting capacity.
this sounds like a joke.
But considering that they were all soldiers of the Persian Confederacy, this sad strategy may indeed have its existence..”
“Haha, what a disgusting joke！”
Marshal Loren said with a sneer.：
“So, your opinion is？”
“We are about to strengthen the fortress group in East Prussia and establish large-scale trench positions to deal with the black disaster. This work requires a lot of manpower..”
General Soros said expressionlessly：
“If they can't do the job of soldiers well, maybe coolies that don't need to use their brains will be more suitable for them. If Huairou can't make them grateful, then it's time for the whip to appear..”
“Just do it！”
The half-dwarf blew out the smoke ring fiercely and cursed：
“Just start with the defenders who have done something wrong, and send our soldiers to take over and start a large-scale gnoll hunt..
In the end, we don't need so much manpower, right?？”
“Well, even if we start all the reinforcement of fortress groups and the construction of trench positions at the same time, according to the calculations of the staff department, we only need half of the manpower of the border guards..”
General Soros replied：
“The other half of the soldiers will still be a problem.”
“But it won't be our trouble.”
The half-dwarf showed a strange smile. He returned to his desk and scrawled a marshal's order. He said：
“Governor Murphy's victory at this stage means the victory of black disaster defense preparations. As a member of the civilized camp, we must show our congratulations and goodwill to our neighbors..
Thoros, select the armed blood servants we captured, and then find a good time to send them all back. By the way, send the remaining half of the soldiers to Governor Murphy as the manpower of the Plantagenet Kingdom to assist Transia.！
Don't be stingy with material supplies, equip them with necessary weapons.
Send another batch of artillery pieces to be eliminated.
Finally, in my own name, purchase a batch of good ordnance that can arm 500 people as a gift..”
“Ah, it's such a beautiful thing, why don't I take part in it?？”
General Soros laughed and stood up, saying to his marshal：
“I also gave a gift of ordnance for 200 people as a thank you gift to Governor Murphy for helping us solve this troublesome problem..”
“700It doesn't sound right.”
The half-dwarf rubbed his chin, rolled his eyes and thought for a while, then said：
“Let our 'Colonel Capet' complete the last 300 pieces..”
“Colonel? He jumped two military ranks in one go.？”
General Soros said in amazement：
“It seems that Fraser's short essay was deeply loved by His Majesty. Thinking about it, who wouldn't like an outstanding young man who can fight, has a family, and is good at writing?？
Alas, it took me ten years to grow from a major to a colonel, and I fought in at least six battles.”
“Who told you not to have a good father?？”
Marshal Loren shrugged and took out another transfer order and signed his name. He said：
“We also need to send a military officer to Transia to assist Governor Murphy in setting up an effective defense. Fraser happened to be promoted too quickly..
He needs some impressive military exploits to prove himself.
伱Tell me, if I send the heir of the Capet family to the front line against the Black Disaster, will it cause me any trouble?？”
“Are you still afraid of them?？”
General Soros pouted and said：
“Your family background is better than that of the Capet family. Ahem, okay, okay, I won’t talk about it anymore. I know you hate this topic. All your achievements come from your own efforts, okay?？”
“snort！”
Marshal Loren made an unhappy nasal sound, added a name to the order, and said：
“Then let Colonel Fraser serve as the chief of the military observation group sent to Transia by the Pioneer Legion, and your youngest son as his adjutant.”
“Very good, that bastard really needs a little suffering to make him grow up..”
General Soros had no objection to this, and he happily signed his name on the transfer order..
A few minutes later, General Soros asked another question, saying：
“Several production lines that the Cape family plans to send to Transia have been suppressed in our defense zone for a week. Do we want to release them now?？”
“certainly.”
The half-dwarf marshal blew out the last smoke ring and said：
“That is the right of being a victor. I asked you to suppress those goods before just because I didn’t want them to fall into the hands of the jackals..
Now that they have won the battle, these will naturally be sent to Murphy.
After all, he paid for it.
that vampire.
It's really good. It's already showing greatness. Maybe we can win or lose on the battlefield in the future. We have a good opponent. Tsk tsk. The God of War is really blessing us..”
