It can be said that the war is about to break out. The troops of the Cao Family Trading Company are already ready for battle, but the four empires are not vegetarians. They have already discussed that the Cao Family Trading Company must be eliminated.
The army must be brought back to a higher level. Otherwise, according to the current development model, they will soon be no match for the Cao Family Trading Company. War is not a good thing for anyone, and these people all know it very well.
This matter, but now it is no longer possible not to go to war. They have not made any development in peacetime, but they have degraded their army very much. They all know that if it continues like this, the Cao family will eventually
The people in the trading company will become stronger, and they will become weaker. Now they still have the ability to fight, but if they don't even have the ability to fight in the future, this is definitely not what they want to do.
Things, for them, losing the rights in their hands is absolutely unacceptable, and they have not thought about giving up their current rights. For them, rights are even more important than their lives.
The people from the Cao Family Trading Company are not allowed to do this, and any previous threats are not allowed. In addition, they have also reached an agreement with three of the four sects, and the people from the three sects promise not to interfere.
For such a thing, they will also send some of their own people to help the people of the four empires. The Southern Empire has been completely split. The entire huge Southern Empire has become two parts, 70%
Part of it was ruled by the royal family of the former Southern Empire, and the remaining 30% became Cao's Trading Company.
, in fact, this matter is not a good thing for the people of the Cao Family Trading Company. In the past, they all thought that they could control the Southern Empire 100%, but the result was not like that. In the end, they all understood
Now, they can only control 30% of this huge empire. For the original senior executives of the Cao Family Trading Company, they all feel that this is a huge failure, but for those of the Cao Family Trading Company who came from Earth
For those who came here, this is the greatest success. One-third of a huge ancient empire belongs to them. More than 600 provinces and a population of nearly 70 billion belong to them.
No matter on the earth or on the rty planet, they did not have such huge power in the past. For them, this is a huge victory. No matter what was said about the Cao Family Trading Company in the past
influence, but none of them are in this place. They are all illusory things, but now they are completely different. Now everyone has it in their own hands. They all understand this matter, and now they have it in their hands.
The land in these hundreds of provinces is the largest resource. These are all in your own hands. They truly belong to your own territory. In the past, there were still a lot of four areas in some places that you controlled.
The institutions of the big empires really have nothing now. The people of the four empires and the people of the Cao Family Trading Company have reached an unwritten stipulation, that is, within three months, they must
Retreating some of the things and people that I have at other people's places is the same as the action on earth to get the ambassador back, but I will not take care of the commercial aspects of the Cao family business.
Everyone in the four empires also knows that if the Cao Family Trading Company is allowed to cut off all commercial institutions, their economy will also suffer a huge blow. All it takes is the military retreat of the Cao Family Trading Company.
, Of course, you don’t need to retreat, but after the war starts, these bases cannot send troops. As long as your people come out from here to attack us, then I’m sorry, we must capture this military base.
, this is also a consensus reached by both parties.
The people of the Cao Family Trading Company are also satisfied with this decision. It would be impossible for them to withdraw all their military bases, but the people of the four major empires who have more than a dozen large military bases in the northern region are
He will never give up, because the people from the Cao Family Trading Company in that place have no ability to retreat at all, because that is where the people from the Cao Family Trading Company want to give up, and Li Li can only let the people below use their strength.
Some strategic materials were transported there, and the money and the like were just used to let the local people buy some things. Anyway, I don’t know what this place will look like in the future. Some local soldiers also understand that,
If they don't protect this place well at this time, it will be impossible for them to leave. They are also the first batch of people to enter the war. After three months of preparation, they have also mobilized a lot of people here.
For reinforcements, the thirteen military bases became six, and they also gave up the other seven military bases. They all understood that at this time, they had to gather some things around them, so that they could
There will be more powerful forces to fight against the troops coming from outside. Although defense is something these people are very good at, and people outside have also said that the people from the Cao Family Trading Company are the best at defense, but at this moment
We also need to take a look at some of the situations here. All the troops from the Cao Family Trading Company have gathered around here, and they only have less than 30 million troops at most. But what about the armies of the four empires? Their coalition forces include 80 million from the Northern Empire.
People, 130 million people in the Eastern Empire, 80 million people in the Western Empire, 40 million people in the Southern Empire, a total of 330 million people, more than ten times their number, and there are four times more people on the road
They are coming and are expected to arrive here in two months. Their army is different from before. The top leaders of the four empires already understand the matter in front of them, and that is to put them here.
Kill all the troops of the Cao Family Trading Company. If they cannot be killed, they will not come here so actively. These people all know in their hearts that this is the place where the Cao Family Trading Company gave up. They launched
Weapons and ammunition are very powerful, but when you use one, you will have one less. This place may be the best battlefield among all. But they just can’t figure it out. Sometimes things are not what you think.
It's so simple. If it's really as simple as you think, why would your senior management give you so many reinforcements? Isn't it because they don't have much confidence in you? It will take a long time for him to win.
, other places in the Cao Family Trading Company were preparing nervously. When Li Li saw this place on the map, he felt very painful. It was not that he wanted to abandon this place, but that there was really no way to take it back.
If they were to retreat back, not only would they not be able to contain so many troops, but they would also prevent the strength of other Cao family firms from retreating. In that case, their own losses would be even greater. It might even be possible for them to retreat.
I can't afford to lose anything. This is what war is like. It's impossible for there to be no losses. This is impossible for anyone. This is the situation in front of me. I must do a good job to let them
He was prepared to fail, but he had also prepared some other things. He would not give up on them just like that. Li Cong had already prepared 1,500 airships for Li Wei to serve as a reserve force. Li Wei was prepared to stay.
100 4,000-ton ships, and the rest will be used to supply that side. As long as they have one person who can resist, I will never let them suffer heavy losses due to lack of food and weapons. I hope you can
Becoming a thorn in the Cao family's trading bank can directly crucify all the people in the four empires. If this is the case, it may be a better situation.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling sorry for this place again? I have read some information and know that we have paid tens of billions of dollars for these dozen bases. Apart from this, I guess you just feel sorry for the soldiers there.
If that's the case, I think I might be able to help you. Just ask me to go there. As long as you can send me foster care or something, I guarantee that I can use 30 million soldiers to buy you half a year.
I don't know what will happen there in half a year. This is already my greatest ability. I wonder if I can make you feel more comfortable?" Hong Lie said when he saw Li Li staring at the map in a daze,
In fact, this guy had his own reasons for saying that. Although many people had seen what this guy was capable of in the previous war, for those people, this guy who had not appeared before suddenly appeared.
, and it is still such a high position, many people will feel uncomfortable, feeling that this person has only succeeded once, and there is simply no usable ability. If it is replaced by someone else to do such a thing, it will not be possible at all.
It was such an ending that Hong Lie felt a little less confident because of their discussion. After all, if many people said that, it would be a huge blow to him. Such a thing
It's better not to do it 2, just take it slowly in the future. Now that he said that, Li Li was a little surprised. You must know that at the beginning, he had already determined that the place in front of him needed to be abandoned.
Yes, I can indeed send some foster care, but to be honest, this place is still not as important as Hong Lie in Li Li's heart. This top student who graduated from the military academy has now become his right-hand man, Min De
Although it can help them do a lot of things, that guy doesn't know much about military matters. If they want to accomplish something, they still need to rely on this guy in front of them. For them, military
The things on the road are not that easy. Li Li understands very well what this guy is thinking. He just wants to prove himself to those people. Li Li does not agree with his idea. He shook his head and said, "You
You know, the war is about to break out in full force. Although it is more important over there, it is still somewhat inadequate compared to your importance. If I let you go, it would be irresponsible to the entire business.
From the very beginning, we understood that the place in front of us was beyond our control. It was too far away from us. Even if the airship was operating at full power, three months would only pass once. Think about it.
It is unrealistic to provide support there for a long time. Although I don’t want to lose that place, didn’t you also say that we all need to face reality? We can’t even see some of the real situations.
If it is clear, we may not really be able to find the southeast, northwest, and northwest in the future. This is a very fatal thing, so we still have to be more cautious, otherwise we may suffer a big loss.
It's definitely not alarmist." Li Li said helplessly. He very much hoped to maintain some of the power of the Cao Family Trading Company in that place. If that area was not so important, it would never have been so important at the beginning.
After many troops have passed, there will not be so many military bases. The current situation is like this. If we don't give up here, there may be losses in other places. Because those places are more important.
Don't look at how relaxed Li Li was at the meeting, but in fact he is definitely not that free and easy. The career that his grandfather worked so hard to create has expanded a lot in his own hands. But really
When the war was about to come, I actually gave up so much outright. I wonder what grandpa would think if he knew it.
This guy also knows that now is not the time to talk about those things. What he has to do now is to make a quick decision on the matter in front of him. He doesn't want Hong Lie to go to that place. Just like what he said, this guy
If he goes there, if something bad happens, he will really lose such a good helper in the future. Although it is more important there, in Li Li's heart, he still feels that no matter how important it is,
It can't be more important than the guy in front of him. He should prevent the guy in front of him from doing such things, but sometimes he also wants to let him go out and prove himself. He knows clearly.
What was Hong Lie thinking recently and what were the people around him saying? Hong Lie smiled and said, "Actually, it's not like I'm going there to go to a volcano. If I go there, it might change the situation there."
Maybe, I am also the first to graduate from the military academy. I feel that I am still somewhat capable. If you don’t believe me, there is nothing you can do. Let’s calculate it. Now they can last for three months.
There is no problem with time. After I go, there is still half a month of preparation time. I guarantee that I can persist for half a year. Now you can only send a small number of airships to support us, but it will be completely different in the future.
Well, half a year from now, I believe that as long as there are continuous victories on the frontal battlefield, then you will have more troops to spare. By then, maybe we can all fight a counterattack. Such a thing is absolutely
It’s not what I think about. I think you think the same way in your own mind, but you also have another layer of worries, that is, if things are different from what we think, they may not be what they are.
, sometimes everything can be seen slowly. We must not use the matter in front of us to decide other matters. The matter in front of us is that you send me over immediately. Don't worry.
, I know what you are thinking, yes, I do want to go over and show off. What I can do here at the headquarters is very limited. I believe you can also see some things.
I understand that these conservative people are not very optimistic about me. They all want to get the maximum benefit without giving up anything. Such things can only happen in dreams. I also know that at the time
It was not easy for our leaders to build such a world at that time, but sometimes, there are gains and losses. I might not lose it if I go there, believe me, and if I were there
If so, I estimate that you can usually send out some support, and there may be more for my reasons, so that the brothers over there can see more confidence." What this guy said didn't mean anything.
Wrong, Li Li also feels that if an absolute high-level person goes there at this time, it will have a great impact on morale. Many people in the four empires also feel that they have given up there, but
If Hong Lie is sent there, it will have a certain effect on their hearts. They will also start to doubt their own strategy. Will there be any problems? If so, they may change their plans.
As long as they are willing to change this battle plan, no matter how they change it, it will take time. What people in the Cao Family Trading Company need most now is time. If they have enough time, they can even do it.
There were a lot of things. Thinking of this, Li Li was convinced by the guy in front of him. He said, "Okay, since you want to go there, I won't stop you. Bring the 1st Guards Division over."
, we can’t just let you go there as a polished commander. This is not possible. In addition, 150 203mm artillery pieces have just come over from the earth, and they are all for you to take with you. I believe these things will give you good support.
"." Li Li's words did not allow him to refuse. These things would be very good wherever they are.
Now, everywhere in the Cao Family Trading Company is beginning to panic, because the armies of the four empires have appeared not far from them. Things like artillery are very important strategic materials no matter where they are.
Yes, for the people of the Cao Family Trading Company, it would definitely be a good thing to have a few large-caliber 203mm artillery. If such a thing is really launched into the enemy's infantry square, it will definitely make it possible
Dozens or even hundreds of them lost their lives directly. If they could enter the enemy's cavalry target, it would be a greater victory. Those people would definitely be unable to find their way to the north.
Especially their war horses. It will be even more chaotic. Every commander hopes for such a thing. Hong Lie smiled. He didn't say anything and gave Li Li a standard military salute, although it was some of the ones here.
The soldiers have also started to practice this kind of military etiquette, but when they do it, they still feel that it is completely different from that on the earth. The main reason is that such things have only appeared in their place for a relatively short time. I think
It is not easy to promote it quickly. Li Li didn't know whether his current decision was wrong, but he still stopped this guy and took the large-scale 10,000 cubic meters of things in his hand.
I gave the space ring to this guy. Although it may not be of much use, it is already the most I can get. Hong Lie smiled and nodded. This thing is definitely thousands more than his own.
The square one was much larger. He had already learned a lot about the northern base of the Cao Family Trading Company beforehand, and he also knew the situation there. He knew that most of the granaries there were full.
, there are a lot of crossbows and other things, the only thing missing is some cannonballs. The most important things transported this time are cannonballs. As long as the supply of this thing is sufficient, it will be in the future.
There will never be a time when the war is over. In half a year, I should not have any problems. As long as I can control the half year, as long as the reinforcements here have passed by then, there will definitely be no such people.
Good life, all I need to do is to be able to go through this half year. The boss in the northern region is called Tuoba Shangjun. He is a descendant of the Tuoba family. Speaking of which, he is also the nephew of the old guy Tuoba Yuanye. This
This guy is very similar to his uncle. At first, the whole Mop General people didn't have a good impression of the people from the Cao Family Trading Company, but this guy stood firmly on his uncle's side. In the end,
It wasn't the people from the Cao Family Trading Company who helped them. If it weren't for the people from the Cao Family Trading Company, their whole family might have been killed by the Western Empire's court. Even so, those less elite disciples still dedicated their lives.
He took his own life. His little brother was only five years old at the time. He was just an ordinary child. If he were in other people's homes, it would be nothing like an ordinary disciple. How could he raise him?
The Tuoba family doesn't have much. At most, when they grow up, they will be given a good property and let them play around. But the most depressing thing is that they were born in such an environment. This matter is not that simple.
, these people all died in the end, because when they retreated, they could only evacuate some of the elite members of the Tuoba family. As for the other people, they could only say I'm sorry to you. We don't have the ability to let you follow.
Let's go, so this guy has an absolute hatred for the Western Empire. He has the same temperament as Tuoba Yuanye. When he is fine, he will think of what happened back then. As long as the Cao Family Trading Company's army has any relationship with the Western Empire,
If there is any conflict between the empire's armies, this guy will immediately lead his people to ask for a fight. After several battles, this guy has successfully grown from the original division commander to the current army commander, and finally became the commander of the northern region.
The commander of a military base, and now several military bases have been merged, this guy has become the deputy commander-in-chief. As for their commander-in-chief, news has come from above, that is, General Hong Lie, the deputy minister of the military, will personally take over.
He is different from those other people. He is a soldier. He understands what Hong Lie is capable of. He also went to this high-level war meeting. He agrees with Hong Lie's idea that the northern region should be abandoned.
Of course, what he thought more about was that he could definitely withstand those people's attacks. They saw that he didn't have that many abilities.
This time Hong Lie came not only with 300,000 people from the First Guards Division, but also with more than two million tons of various strategic materials. Although these things are not very much, for the people in this base,
It's already very good. They have already bought all the meat and other things from more than a dozen provinces around. Don't say that the people here have any meat at home. Even those who haven't grown up much.
They have also brought in all the livestock. They still have two supply lines, one is from the sea, but there can only be less than five ships of about 15,000 tons of supplies delivered every day, and the other is from the sea.
There are airships in the sky. On average, it is less than 10,000 tons per day. 25,000 tons of supplies per day is obviously not enough. You must know that they are a large military base with more than 30 million people.
, various supplies consume nearly 100,000 tons of various materials every day, which has been streamlined a lot. If we follow the previous consumption level, it is estimated that 200,000 tons will be consumed every day. The total here
The material preparations are only less than 15 million tons, and the full calculation is only 150 days. Of course, the news received from the headquarters is basically the same. There is not much shortage of food and other things.
, the only thing missing is arms and supplies. All the things Hong Lie brought this time were artillery shells and grenades. The only airships they have here are small airships of less than fifty tons, and large ones.
All the airships had already retreated. After Hong Lie came down, he spoke a few words to a few people and then entered the war room. The generals here were all full of confidence. They were not
Those politicians only look at the actions of those who have won the war. Just like the situation in front of them, they all feel that there is a lot of hope for following this guy Hong Lie. This guy is called a genius. They used to
They also fought a lot of victorious battles when they were young, but such achievements were not possessed by the person in front of them. They also thought that together with the person in front of them, they could accomplish something that others thought was a failure. For them,
For them, the person in front of them may be their only hope for victory. They also know that their relationship with the above is different. They have said it many times before, but there are no heavy artillery or shells here.
, they all know that there are very few such things, and the only thing they can do now is to continue to ask for it, but everything has disappeared, and basically there is no news back. Now it is completely different.
, now that people have brought it directly, it feels good to do something like this. In the future, the higher-ups will definitely not ignore this place. In fact, if they knew, this would be the last assistance here in three months. It would be really embarrassing.
I know what they are thinking in their hearts. The war has reached this level. People in the Cao Family Trading Company must also make their own choices. If they really don't do it well, they don't know what the result will be in the future.
Now, everything in front of them needs to end slowly, and they all know this clearly.
Hong Lie didn't waste a minute of his time after he arrived here. He knew clearly that he didn't have much time to waste. He glanced at the map and saw that the enemy's encirclement was about to end. Although
The interiors of several surrounding bases had almost been cleaned up, but he still saw a few good places. He pointed to a place on the map and said, "Why are there no more of our troops here? Go ask someone to clean up this place."
Pull all the things back to me." Mr. Tuoba Shang on the side looked at the place pointed by this guy in surprise. This is not their territory anymore. It is already three hundred miles away from them. Here is
The warehouse of the Northern Empire, where millions of troops were watching, Hong Lie knew what was going on when he looked at their eyes, and then said, "Haha, you have to have your own courage to do things, I know
What do you think? That is, they haven't taken action against us yet, how can we just do it? In fact, all of you can think this way, this war is not about us at all.
We can stop them. Now these people are ready. They will all start a war with us. No matter what we do, it will have no effect. If this is the case, what do we have to hesitate to use as a fig leaf at this time?
There is no use anymore. You can just tear it off. As for other things, we don’t need to say anything, right? Whether it’s the enemy’s warehouse or our warehouse, as long as we can
You can rob anything. I can tell what you are thinking by looking at the expressions on your faces. It doesn't matter. They will definitely not think of it this time when our troops go out. Although they have millions of troops
I guess there is not a strong army there. If it were a very powerful army, I guess they would not be sent to look at the warehouse. They must be some people who are not very good in normal times. For these people we
There is nothing more to say. Just kill them. As long as the things inside are of use to us, bring them all back. If there is no use, just burn them. I think you should all be like this.
You know, haven't you ever learned about fighting to support war before? If we had sufficient supplies, of course we wouldn't do such a shameful thing, but now we don't have the ability.
, we can only use this method. Even if we use this method, we may not be able to win, but it can definitely increase our winning chips. No matter how big the dozens of people in the surrounding city are,
The landlords in the warehouse are still laughing, and I can't let them go. But there is one thing. The things in the people's homes cannot be touched. I just want to plunder all the wealth of these landlords. Of course, their people cannot be touched.
, if you let me know that someone has bad intentions, let me deal with it all by the warlord. Okay, don’t stand here anymore. Do what you need to do quickly. If it’s too late, it may not be possible to let people in these places.
When you go in, the enemy is not stupid, and some of them will think of the problems we can think of." Hong Lie himself has been talking here for a long time, and seeing that these people under him still haven't moved, he can't help but be seriously hurt.
Think about it, the political commissars in this army seem to have turned them into gentlemen. You must know that getting some things from the enemy casually at this time can help you win. This is absolutely possible.
Things, these people have all forgotten how those people did things in the past. They never thought that this guy who was said to be very powerful in the army would actually let them become robbers when he came. These people
Everyone's brains are a little confused, and they all feel that this matter is not very good, but the specific lack of improvement is their problem.
It can be said that Tuoba Shangjun was not a good person in the past. He did not talk about the war, but the things that caused trouble were definitely not ambiguous. In fact, he had long thought of destroying some things in the surrounding cities.
They were all looted. No matter how you say it, it’s not about your war potential. It’s just that the political commissar gave you a slap in the face as soon as you expressed your idea. Now, when you look at the political commissar’s face, his face is already green.
Okay, how do you explain this to the soldiers? In the past, we were not so educated, but they were all talking about things like the relationship between soldiers and civilians. Why do we think like this now? But fortunately, here comes the boss.
Didn't say that even the things in people's homes were robbed. Just as he was about to take a rest, the boss spoke again, "What we are lacking now is not food, but vegetables and other things.
If our soldiers don’t have good vegetables and meat, they must be in poor health. Such things must be in the hands of old farmers. I asked the soldiers to give them to me at normal prices.
Buy it back, and after we come back, we will give an extra 10% of the price to the soldiers as payment for their hard work. But if I know that someone is casually robbing the people of their supplies, I will hang them all on the city wall, regardless of the usual
No matter how great your military exploits are, you must do this. Things like military discipline must not be messed up. We must also remember those rich people. We are just robbing other people's things, but we will never do it.
Killing people, of course, if they attack us, they will just kill their whole family. This will also make it clear to other landlords, wealthy people, etc., that we are the same as those bandits, we only want money
, we will never do something that is too extreme. If they are not willing to do this, we have no choice. Of course, we have to leave certain things for their families. As soon as it is done, it will be done. Anyway, they
Normally, they are looted from the common people. As for the official warehouses of the Northern Empire, they were all taken away directly without even thinking about it. General Mop, you just need to handle this matter immediately and tell the soldiers.
Guys, you must move quickly and never delay. If an enemy army comes over and directly destroys the looted things, you must not start a war in advance." This guy didn't forget to explain a few things before he left.
In short, who wouldn’t do such a thing? Regardless of the faces of several political commissars, General Mop immediately started to arrange tasks. The dozens of counties and nearly two hundred county towns around him can be regarded as important.
Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do about it. If we don't rob you, our life will not be easy. Besides, if you come back from the robbery and kill the pork, you just need to find a place to put it. The temperature here is already
It has reached minus five or six degrees. If this cannot be preserved, the weather will be considered a ghost. Everyone knows this kind of thing. In fact, they don't want to go to people's homes to rob. There are many here.
They are local soldiers, so such a thing must not be done. As for the families of those bullies and landlords, they do not have such ideas. What kind of landlords do not bully the people now? It is simply a psychological burden to attack them.
No, some of these soldiers have some problems with them, and they are eager to come to take revenge. Of course, they will not do anything that is disrespectful to human life. The military police are watching, and if they do something outrageous
If so, let alone them, even some people around you will not be able to see it. These people are in a different army from others. (To be continued...)
