Warhammer Throne

In the next few days, Ryan and others were just like doing nothing and waiting for the high elves to organize the army. They should play, eat, and rely on the Phoenix brooch given by Phoenix King Finnuba to bring the entire Lothern Sightseeing in the outer city again.

Especially after the real openness, the relationship between Ryan and Surya is now similar to that of Mi Li. The couple went out shopping and shopping during the day, visiting the tourist spots of the high elves. At night, there are naturally fairies and Surya and Olyka took turns in battle, allowing Ryan to live a very refreshing life. Of course, Surya got the most favor, which made both the fairy in the lake and Olyka uncomfortable.

Of course, the secret investigation was not idle. Ryan and Fuggen did spend a lot of energy trying to approach the great city wall of the inner city when they visited Lothern, but they were all noticed by the high elves, but the high-precision guards took it for granted. This is just the admiration of the monkeys who have never seen the world to my Asul culture, which is consistent with their personality, but they don't care too much.

Indeed, as Olika said, the Great Wall is well-guarded and can’t break through, and more importantly, Ryan can’t teleport in because Ryan can’t teleport to places he can’t perceive. To put it simply, Ryan has no vision or It is dangerous to use long-distance psionic teleportation if he has detected the mark in advance.

What is even more annoying is that the messenger Alsena-Bo scholar sent by the high elves is like a dog skin plaster. As long as Ryan wants to go out, he guarantees that he will appear at the door of the hotel with a smile on his face, and find every reason to keep up. It’s hard to find an excuse to get rid of it, and now when Ryan talks about dating, Alsena will have a "I understand it" expression, and then hang it from a distance, the goods are really powerful, holding a binoculars across a block Can keep up with people.

After about one week, the fairy in the lake finally came up with a solution.

"Reviewing the army?" Within the war council, Tyrion was distressed by the plight he suffered. Hearing the question from Tagris, he was stunned for a moment, and thought to me this bit of an eye?

Did my brother, an oak-headed guy, get any wind? Or was his goddess Lilith thinking again?

But the warlord thinks carefully, it is also necessary.

Princess Etila of the Kingdom of Terenlock and Issarian of the Kingdom of Iris led the army, and at his call, Istrona, the chief maid of the Queen of Eternity, also led one of the kingdoms of Avalon An army rushed towards Lothern, but Tyrion did not dare to ask too much. Even if he was the lover and god-chosen champion of the Eternal Queen, but the Eternal Queen is a high-quality cultural symbol and supreme leader. Really let the kingdom of Avalon be sent out, then the impeachment instruments like high-precision palace snow flakes will fill the desk of Finnuba, Tyrion can’t make it difficult for Finnuba, otherwise he wants to change the rule and be safe. The phoenix king of mascots and spiritual leaders is not easy. For Gao Jing, it is a habit and an instinct to engage in court conspiracy.

Just two days ago, Tyrion and Imric broke out a fierce quarrel in the war council.

Tyrion asked the Kingdom of Caledo to send troops. As the most combative kingdom in Osuan, whether the Kingdom of Caledo participated in this surprise attack on the cemetery of the funeral ship is the key to winning.

The high elf fleet needs dragons too much. Are there two dragons?

Imrek did not refuse to accept Tyrion's request to send troops, but the Prince Kaledo made the following requests.

First, Imrek must be the commander of the war, and Finnuba’s official appointment document is required.

Second, in the war must use Kaldor's dragon's coat of arms and flags, and the dragon princes must give orders.

It is impossible for Tyrion to agree to this condition, and the two sides naturally disappointed.

After that, Immick was asked to send troops, and Immick started.

"I also want to send troops, but now Caledo’s armaments are insufficient. We need more iron ore and rare ores. The Val anvil can produce what it needs, otherwise it will take at least ten years for the Val anvil to supply enough. quartermaster."

"The army is gathering, but it has encountered many difficulties, equipped with mounts, and suffered serious damages. Since the Phoenix King's Court requested Caledo to send troops, should all the logistical supplies be filled by the Phoenix King's Court?"

"Well, let's send two hundred elites led by five dragon princes to join the ranks of warlords. When will the rest of the supplies arrive and when will our army of Kaledo follow."

Tyrion was disgusted by Imrek's set, but the warlord had no choice.

Tyrion understands why Imrek is so obedient, because there is an unwritten tradition in Osuan, probably set by the King of Phoenix, Caledo I, that is, if Osuan wants to unite one If you support a large army and need the power of the dragons in the Kingdom of Caledo and Caledo Volcano, then the command of the army should be handed over to the commander of the dragon princes of Caledo, as is customary.

But Tyrion can’t hand over the command of the army to Imrek anyway, so there is no solution to this problem. You want others to send troops and others to the dragon, and you still don’t give them command. Such an easy thing?

In the end, Tyrion could only find Finnuba, stating that the standing army could no longer meet the needs of the current expedition for the funeral cemetery, and we needed to recruit conscripts.

Finnuba did not think too much, or the King of Phoenix could not refuse the request of the war lord, the edict was issued quickly, and the King of Phoenix recruited conscripts from all Osuuan. At the request of the war lord, the high-precision army quickly recruited When more than 60,000 people arrived, they were now concentrated in Lothern, ready to advance.

At this time, Tigris made a suggestion to Tyrion: "Since we need the help of those humans, do we want humans to see the power of our Azul? See our military capabilities?"

Tyrion thought that this was not quite like the opinion put forward by his younger brother, but it was quite in line with the thoughts deep inside Tyrion. Furthermore, the Kingdom of Caledo was not willing to contribute, but also relied on the power of the armored ship. So he agreed.

At the beginning of November 2513 in the imperial calendar, the 350th year of the nautical king Finnuba, Ryan and Surya led dozens of officers and soldiers of the old guard, and Fuggen led his guard Phoenix The guard finally obtained permission to enter the inner city.

In the inner city of the high elves, tens of thousands of high-precision troops gathered here, silver helmets and silver armor, murderous sky.

It is difficult to use words to describe the strong sense of order and neat arrangement of the high elf army. When the high elf army is trained and arranged in a square matrix, it is almost as smooth and smooth as art. The high personal qualities of a high elf soldier made Ryan drool. The Knight King thought more than once if the serf infantry regiment in his own collar could have this level.

Of course, Ryan knew it was impossible.

Among the high-precision armies concentrated by Tyrion, elite professional troops and those semi-professional standing troops are a few. Most of them are high elf conscripts, in fact, high-precision militia, but Ryan and Fuggen can be sure, even if they are high The elite militia still has much more combat power than their ordinary semi-professional armies, empire’s provincial armies, or serf infantry regiments. When the advanced elf troops are advancing, they wear silver helmets, breastplates, and armor skirts. , The high-precision militia equipped with shield spears or bows and arrows can actually give a sense of oppression and killing of the steel torrent. In this regard, under the command of Ryan, apart from the knights, he is only the most recent The guards and Lengxi Guards have this quality, and Fukuen's command is limited to the elite legions of the First Army, the Cavalry Regiment, and the Golden Master.

However, the so-called high-precision compulsory soldiers still have the envy of the individual soldiers and combat capabilities of Ryan, Surya, and Fuggen, who can be sure that if he has such a source of troops, he puts the mice of Ruthia, Vampires and chaotic tribes are just around the corner.

Unfortunately, it is impossible for high-precision volunteers to start training as "white-crowned archers". These elf militia will spend decades, starting with swordsmanship and bow and arrow training, and starting their service career. After serving for decades or even hundreds of years, the conscripts began to change from archers to spearmen, forming spear guidelines and spear fortresses. Every step performed by the high-precision spearmen in the formation was like At the same time, the carefully designed dances were overlapped with shields and provided protection at the same time, and then freely speared on the enemy's split front.

Then through dozens to hundreds of years of training and conscription, the excellent were incorporated into the ranks of Lothern Sea Guard and the standing army around the country.

Unlike the spear phalanx of other weak races, the uniform movements of the high-precision phalanx are often completed without orders or gestures. Every high-precision soldier instinctively understands the thoughts of the comrades around them, and acts without hesitation.

This kind of training and long accumulation is doomed to human beings not having this level of conscripts.

The officers of the Old Guard and the Phoenix Guards under Fugen also marveled at the high-precision military capabilities.

"It is indeed an elite army." Lane said to Fuggen. "The elves still have something."

"If they don't have this kind of quality, they will be finished." Fugan nodded. "Don't underestimate these ancient races at any time."

Warlord Tyrion and Princess Etila of Terenlock were obviously very satisfied with this scene. Tyrion took the initiative to approach Ryan and Fuggen and said, "Your Majesty, Commander of the Legion, look at my Azul camp. Soldiers, can they be strong?"

"One by one like a wolf." Ryan smiled, following Tyrion's tone.

"Do you think the military food in the rear camp is sufficient?" Tyrion then asked. The warlord's heart was very satisfying. He then pointed to the mountain of military food in the barracks.

"It's really good food," Ryan continued to laugh.

"Okay!" Tyrion saw that Ryan was so acquainted, and he couldn't help but judge him a bit higher: "Please sit down and let me arrange it."

After that, Tyrion took the people away, leaving only the three Ryan sitting together.

"Ma'am, what do you think?" Ryan just laughed as he watched Tyrion leave. He took Suria's hand and asked towards his wife, "What do you think? High-precision army?"

"The high-precision army may indeed be powerful, but I think the system of compulsory soldiers is showing how high-precision has declined." Surya picked up the teacup and moved gracefully: "It can only be said that the high elves and the dark elves have fought. It has been a miracle that the social order has not collapsed for thousands of years."

"Ha ha ha ha!" Both Ryan and Fuggen laughed, and Fuggen couldn't help but nod at Suria: "Pretty!"

Is the compulsory system strong? Of course, it is very powerful. The compulsory military service period, regular conscription and demobilization, easy rotation, and conducive to the replacement of the standing army soldiers can not only keep the army soldiers young and strong, but also reserve soldiers. At the same time, it can also allow more people to serve Active duty makes the burden of military service fair and reasonable. Through the compulsory military service system, Morville, the king of the Phoenix, formed a very deadly army and became a decisive force in defending Osuan.

Klein’s clever queen, Surya, had seen the essence through the phenomenon, and she saw the weakness of the high elves behind the compulsory system.

The military system of the high elves is roughly divided into three stages. The watershed from the first stage to the second stage is the battle of the long beards. Before the battle of the long beards, all the troops of the high elves were completely elite professional army. After the fierce defeat in the battle of the long beards and the loss of elite losses, the butcher king Texilis formulated the standing army system, that is, the recruiting system, and the high-precision army began to evolve into semi-professionalism.

Afterwards, in the period of King Morville, the man of the hood, in the face of a long war with the dark elves, the military recruitment system has been completely unable to meet the needs of the war. Morville has developed a system of compulsory soldiers and directly obtains a large number of recruits from the civilian population. Each high-quality citizen Bring your own weapons and armor and spend a small amount of time in service each year.

It can be seen from this that the armament and military capabilities of the high elves are actually declining steadily.

And Ryan deeply knows that the compulsory military system is indeed very strong, and can obtain a large number of soldiers, but it does not cost too much like the recruiting system. It is simply the ideal military service system for the monarchs.

But there is a problem here, that is, the system of compulsory soldiers is closely related to the entire social order, which determines that the monarch should not be "too much toss".

What does that mean? It is not too intensive, frequent and large-scale recruitment of conscripts in the country for war, which will lead to the social backbone of conscripts-large-scale depletion and bankruptcy of self-cultivation farmers and the middle class. It’s enough to call it once. If you know that you are recruiting conscripts to carry out large-scale military operations all day long, the number of conscripts will drop rapidly, and it will lead to the collapse of the entire social order.

In this way, the former Emperor Wu Wu of Ryan put all his father and grandfather's strong foundation accumulated over the past 40 years into account, which led to the completion of the compulsory system, the social order almost collapsed, and more than two million in Kanto. The refugees were basically bankrupt in this way, that is, the population of the dynasty was more than 4 million fewer from the beginning to the end of the year.

Ryan knows that many people don’t like to watch this. They love to look at the general strategy, the unification, the surrender of all nations, the king of Qi Xuan (declaring war on all forces), and the fact that they don’t consider the logistics of thousands of miles and move into the general battle. Understand everyone's desire for meritorious service, but to put it another way, if you are the one-or-two-year expedition, all the manpower and material resources needed for the war are transferred to your own conscripts.

It’s too bad to be such a fart, right?

Ryan is not opposed to the compulsory system and the unity. He just knows that the compulsory system must cherish the civilian power. Humans are not chaotic and do not talk about rationality, nor are they like the green skin to breed casually. National policy, and resolutely opposed to reopening the war of looting against Obion.

As Surya said, it is a miracle that Gao Jing is not a military society that encourages a large number of births and a slave society that relies on war to make a fortune. It is already a miracle to be able to insist that Moville's conscript system has not collapsed.

"I heard that you are a knight king?" Lane was still thinking ~www.ltnovel.com~ Princess Terenlock, a member of the war council, and the princess Etila, who was full of pride, overheard the yin-yang conversation between these people, young The princess who was vigorous and successfully defeated the prince-selected champion "beauty" Siegwald was obviously very dissatisfied. She was fully armed and strode in front of Ryan, said coldly: "We Asul When is it your turn for outsiders to comment?"

"What? I want to evaluate the combat effectiveness of the high elves. I still need a sharp ear." Ryan was obviously interrupted when he was interrupted. He said angrily to the unfamiliar elven princess in front of him: "Or do you think I think I Not qualified?"

"If you have the qualifications, you need to fight until you know!" Princess Attila suddenly became angry. She thought that the monkey was indeed a monkey. The princess pulled out her sword and inserted it on the ground in front of Lane: "Just, the war lord needs a little time to arrange. , Why not compare with us? Honor duel?"

Under the gaze of Fuggen and Surya, Ryan also got excited and the Knight King stood up.

"Okay, come!"
