- [This is purely an error. I went to Shenzhen for the annual meeting. Before I went, I sent a leave notice to inform everyone that I would stop updating for a few days. As a result I only uploaded it and forgot to publish it. I haven't been online for the past few days. When I came back, I saw a lot of people scolding me. The biggest contradiction is why I stopped updating without notifying everyone.
Depressed! ! I actually uploaded the notification, but forgot to post it¡
I am a person who cannot fly. I can only take the train. This trip to Shenzhen will kill my life. The train takes 12 hours the round trip is 24 hours. I almost collapsed while sitting there. After coming back, I slept for a full day and night before I recovered. ¡¿
Chapter 533 [The king does not see the king]
According to the "Noble Law" of the Roland Empire, a baron who is hereditary and owns a territory can recruit and maintain a private army of up to 600 people.
Of course, this kind of law on paper is generally just for show.
And what is the actual situation?
Most of the nobles in the Roland Empire have the title of baron, and not counting those lifetime honorary titles, only those barons with real power who own territories Most barons can have hundreds of private troops. , it is already considered top-notch in strength!
¡°For example, for nobles in the northwest like Baron Pierre, the old man did not live a very well-off life before he followed Chen Daolin. It was considered very good if his family could support more than a dozen guards.
There are more than a dozen armed guards, and their equipment and weapons are very crude. They only need a standard weapon, and they don't even have "high-end goods" such as armors and shields.
Of course, as a lord, Baron Pierre has the right to recruit the peasants in his territory to fight for him when needed. Those peasants are weak-legged, as long as each one is given a spear no, not even a spear, Let them take the sticks, big knives, or even dung forks they brought from home to make up the numbers.
Of course, the maximum number cannot exceed six hundred. If it exceeds six hundred, it will be considered a violation of the law and it will be suspected of rebellion. (Except for special circumstances, the so-called special circumstances are, resisting invasion by foreign enemies, etc.)
And Chen Daolin is really a strange existence.
Even if he gets the title of baron, according to the law, he can only maintain an army of 600 people at most.
But in fact, he now directly controls thousands of armed forces in the northwest fortress.
Of course, for the Empire Central Committee, the only option is to deliberately treat these thousands of troops as if they are invisible.
In fact, this is how the empire comforts itself: most of these thousands of armed guards are armed guards put together by various chambers of commerce. In terms of ownership, they still belong to those chambers of commerce, not Chen Daolin's private army.
As for Chen Daolin¡¯s private armyit only amounts to a thousand men. The quota of 600 people is not much exceeded. A messy area like the northwest is beyond our reach, so we simply turn a blind eye.
But if the number exceeds too much, there is no way to explain it.
Now Chen Daolin asks for "ten thousand heroes" when he opens his mouth. This is simply a joke.
How shameless! !
Spann cursed in his heart.
Ten thousand soldiers?
If we can send 10,000 troops to the north, we will take over the northwest fortress ourselves! Resist the orcs yourself! Where else do I need you? Where is your share of the title of nobility and land? !
This Darling Chen is simply like a lion opening its mouth!
No, he did it on purpose!
Spann woke up instantly!
When Darling Chen said this, it showed that he knew very well that Panin had no way of sending troops northward!
But the safety of the northwest fortress is extremely important to the empire, especially to Panin. To fight the invading steppe people, Panin needed a stable north. He must avoid being attacked from both sides, so at this time
This Darling Chen deliberately said that we should send troops In fact, he was implying that he knew that we could not send troops!
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
This bastard!
Span immediately made a new estimate of Chen Daolin's shamelessness.
¡°Isn¡¯t this guy¡ not satisfied with the aid conditions offered by Panin?
Before coming, Spann had already had a careful discussion with Panin.
From the current stage, such a gift sent by Panin?The equipment of the mixed light infantry regiment is already considered to be the limit.
Panin himself is also under a lot of pressure! To the west of his defense area, there are more than 100,000 prairie cavalry watching eagerly, ready to attack across the border at any time.
So Panin¡¯s military assistance to Chen Daolin is not endless!
The best he can do is to provide some weapons and equipment, and the equipment of this mixed light infantry regiment is still pulled out from the gaps between his teeth.
Panin¡¯s situation is not easy.
The biggest trump card in his hand is the two elite Thunder God's Whip divisions, but what he has to face is hundreds of thousands or more prairie cavalry - most likely including the strength of the Tulip family.
And Hilo¡¯s trust in Panin is not endless. Northwest has handed over the northwest to Panin and given him two elite Thunder God's Whip Divisions - this is already one of the most elite armies in the empire.
As for the other two divisions of Thunder God's Whip, they are in the hands of Aker. Based on Panin's political views, Aker has become his natural political enemy. Aker will never let Panin seize the military power in his hands.
Although the situation in the northwest has become increasingly chaotic, Panin has written a secret letter to the imperial capital to explain the situation in the northwest to Hilo, and proposed that in order to prevent a big chaos, he asked Hilo to give him more troops.
But Hilo's response was that he allowed Panin to reorganize the original local garrison in the northwest region, and allowed him to recruit reserves when needed - how many local garrison troops are there in the Kanulin Province? There are only a few thousand people in total.
As for the reserve forcethat's even more of a joke.
Although the reserve system of the Roland Empire has been implemented for several decades. But Nulin Province is a special place. It is the buffer zone between the center of the empire and the Tulip family.
The reserve system of Nulin Province is the worst implemented in the entire Roland Empire! Since it is a blank area, it is natural that military preparations have always been extremely lax.
The reserves in Nulin Province can almost be ignored.
The only thing Panin can do is to recruit farmers and form a peasant army.
Panin naturally looks down upon that kind of rabble.
Shiloh also secretly told Panin that even if he increases his troops, it will have to wait until at least the next year!
This year Hilo can no longer spare more troops to hand over to Panin!
A coup d'¨¦tat almost wiped out all the Imperial Guards in the palace. Shiloh has already transferred some people from the Royal Guards and Thunder God's Whip, plus his own old guard battalion, to form a new Royal Forest Army.
As a result, the two legions of the Royal Guards and the Thunder God's Whip have been reorganized and weakened.
As for the other armies in the empirethe Storm Legion in the north must keep an eye on the defense line in the eastern part of the north and the orcs.
And because of Goth's death, an entire officer corps of the Storm Legion died in the coup. At this time, after Hilo has not completed the thorough reorganization of the Storm Legion, how can he dare to bring down such a tough frontier army? Tune in to yourself?
As for the other armies within the empirethe second-line troops and local garrison forces in those places are already being reorganized.
But all this takes time! !
The Roland Empire is not the real world. An army of tens of thousands of people, pulled by trains, can run from the south to the north in a day or two
In this era, the mobilization of the army must rely on the feet of soldiers to move forward step by step!
Deploying, mobilizing, rectifying, assembling, preparing suppliesetc., this is a huge project!
Hilo clearly told Panin in a secret letter to Panin: Even if the worst case scenario occurs, he requires Panin to hold on to the northwest defense line until the beginning of next spring!
At least until the beginning of spring, Panin himself does not need to count on military support from Hilo. At most, it will only be some supplies of materials.
We need equipment and supplies, we have them!
Someone important, no one!
Furthermore, even with the Lancang Canal, the cost of mobilizing and transporting materials from the interior of the empire to the northwest is not as high as usual!
¡¡
So, when Span heard what Chen Daolin said, his first reaction was anger in his heart!
Ten thousand soldiers?
"If I had ten thousand soldiers, I would still be looking at your face here!"
We have already led 10,000 troops north to directly take over the northwest fortress! !
It¡¯s because I can¡¯t take it outWith these ten thousand people, that¡¯s why you let this guy dominate here!
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Spann forced out a smile: "Haha! Your Excellency the Baron is joking. I see that Your Excellency the Baron is full of talents, so why do we need the help of those mud-legged people in our military camp?"
Chen Daolin naturally knew that it was impossible to really ask for 10,000 people - even if Panin was willing to give it, he would not dare to ask for it!
If Panin really sent 10,000 troops to the northwest fortress, he would have directly taken over the place long ago. Why does he need Chen Daolin?
Chen Daolin laughed and said with a smile: "That's not what you said. I have such a big defense line here, and if I let out the few people in my hand, there will be holes everywhere. Well I don't dare to really ask Jia Duke Ronin asks for the army, but I hope the Duke will not refuse other support."
Spann frowned - what? Not enough equipment for a mixed infantry regiment?
Chen Daolin saw Span's face and smiled: "I am not a person who asks for too much. I am very satisfied and grateful for the gift you brought. However, I just need some other support, not money, materials, or soldiers." Horse food and grass, what I need is"
With that said, Chen Daolin took two steps closer and whispered something in Spann's ear.
After hearing this, Span's face was stunned. He raised his head and looked at Chen Daolin in surprise: "Are you serious?"
Chen Daolin smiled lightly and said: "Of course I'm not joking. I think this request is not difficult, right? This is just within the authority of the Duke."
Spann thought for a while, his expression became serious, and he whispered: "I can't answer you right away I will report it to the Duke immediately after I go back!"
¡¡
¡¡¡¡
It is outside Mulan City, the capital of Nulin Province, ten miles east.
Standing on both sides of the road, there are waiting teams.
Although Panin did not come in person, he sent his adjutant and officials from the Governor's Palace of Nulin Province.
According to the reported news, the team from the Imperial Capital will arrive today.
Among them are not only Lord Ross, Count of Villa, who serves as the envoy of the title, but also the Archbishop of the Temple of Light.
More importantly, it is the top boss in the magic academy, Dean Carmen, and her preparation team - it is said that Dean Carmen brought dozens of entourages from the Imperial Academy of Magic this time!
Dozens of magicians came to Nulin Province together. Such a grand event has probably not happened for a hundred years.
From morning until noon, the cavalrymen who came to greet them from afar ran back.
Soon, a long queue appeared on the far side of the road.
A group of cavalry under the banner of the Imperial Royal Guards Cavalry came slowly.
In the center of the team, there is a black horse, wearing a gorgeous cotton robe and a cape, with a huge forehead shining in the sun, it is the Count of Villa.
The queue behind him was very long, with more than a dozen carriages loaded with goods, including rewards from His Majesty the Emperor and ceremonial utensils.
At the end of the team, there was a luxurious carriage, accompanied by several elite holy knights, and two clergymen in white robes sitting on horses - needless to say, the person in the carriage must be the papal envoy, who sent Here comes the archbishop who came to bless Darling Chen.
This is not the first time Ross has come to the Northwest He has been to the Northwest twice this year.
By the time the team arrived, the people greeting them had already lined up and raised the banner of Panin.
The welcoming officials first greeted Ross and then asked the archbishop to get out of the carriage to greet him.
But then the official looked left and right in the queue, but did not see the most important guest of the trip.
"That Lord Count." The official looked a little embarrassed: "Why didn't you see the one from the Magic Academy"
Ross rubbed his nose and said with a wry smile: "Don't look, Dean Carmen and the others are not in the team."
¡°¡¡¡¡not here?¡±
The official stayed for a while.
Ross shook his head: "We disembarked from the Lancang Canal and went ashore. Dean Carmen left with her people."
"Left?" The official looked bitter: "I wonder which path Dean Carmen took?"
"How do I know?" Ross waved his hand: "She is a magician, and her entourage is all magicians. Who can care about how she can escape from heaven to earth? Hmm?¡I just remembered that the dean said that she didn¡¯t want to see Panin. "
After saying these words, everyone at the scene suddenly became quiet!
Carmen doesn¡¯t want to see Panin!
Who dares to accept this sentence?
Who doesn¡¯t know that Xiao Deer died on the night of the coup? Although he is not Carmen¡¯s biological child, he has been his adopted son for many years! Carmen did not take revenge on Hilo for her murder, and Gu Le was never found
And after all, Panin also has a share!
That night, it was Panin who finally blocked the last sword of the late Emperor Malsi, giving Gu Le the opportunity to stab Xiao Del to death.
Speaking of which, if Dean Carmen sees Panin and gets into a fight no one can stop him!
"UmMr. Dean, did she really say that she would not see the Duke?"
"Well, I think it would be best if these two people didn't meet each other." Ross curled his lips and said: "These things are beyond your control. Well, I think the dean will not enter Mulan City. He has probably arrived by now. Luowa City. They are all magicians. Whether they are flying broomsticks or hot air balloons, they can move faster than us." r1152 - Didn't finish reading?
