Chapter 863: El Shang, who suddenly made a fortune
Nikita did not directly make it clear: if he only gave him 40,000 troops that had just assembled, he would not be confident that he could successfully rescue the western battlefield.
Instead, we used a very euphemistic approach to explain the harm of this tactic to Wahiri and Mond.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister. Adding troops one after another - this kind of thing is very taboo on the battlefield!"
"The army is like these fingers."
After saying that, Nikita raised his right hand.
"Only by clenching each finger can it become a powerful fist."
Nikita slowly closed the five fingers of his right hand and clenched them into a fist.
"Only when fingers are put together can they become fists and compete with other people's fists."
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister. I know that time is very urgent now, but I must not be confused."
"Adding troops one after another is like touching someone's fist with one finger after another."
Nikita stretched out his index finger on his right hand.
"No matter how thick your fingers are, you are not the opponent of your fist."
"Others can break your finger with one punch, and then you send another finger up, and you will be interrupted, and you will send another one, and then interrupt it."
"This is the danger of gradually adding troops."
"So—no matter what, you cannot commit the taboo of adding troops one after another! You must wait until all the troops are gathered before you can officially move the troops!"
Nikita used as vivid metaphors as possible to explain to Wahiri and Mond why troops could not be added one after another.
However, although Wahiri and Mond understood, they had no attitude of correcting them.
"Bai Luofuqing, I don't understand what you said."
Vahiri sighed.
At this time, Wahiri was completely different from Wahiri who was very energetic when he ordered the "Harves" to launch a "Harves" battle last year.
It was obvious that it was not long, but Vahiri seemed to be a lot older.
"But the battle situation is really serious now, and time is really tight."
"The latest information has just arrived."
"The two armies of the Britannian Empire have captured 16 of our cities."
"I don't know how many cities have fallen."
"We really don't have time to slowly assemble troops."
Wahiri expressed his attitude tactfully.
After listening to Vahiri's words, Nikita only felt a chill in her heart.
He understood that Wahiri was quite stubborn, and he might have no way to persuade Wahiri to change his mind.
Nikita gritted her teeth.
"Your Majesty! Even if you really don't have time to slowly assemble the troops, please be sure to give the officials some troops!"
"It's really...to be too forced to give the officials a chance to block Su Cheng's troops with only 40,000 troops!"
Nikita begged His Majesty to give him more troops in a nearly pleading tone.
But in response to Nikita's request, Wahiri's response was to sigh and shake his head.
"Bai Luofuqing, I understand your difficulties."
"But now there are really no soldiers..."
"The Prairie people are now attacking our eastern territory."
"The battle situation in the Far East is in a stalemate, and the Far East Front no longer has the strength to support other battlefields."
"The Southeast Front Army must also guard against the Frank Empire, and the Southeast Front Army is too far away from us. Even if they can squeeze out troops to support, when their support troops arrive, the Britannian army may retreat."
"The only troops that can be used now are Belovqing's Central Imperial Guard."
"But the total strength of the Central Imperial Guard is only 120,000, and the troops are scattered in the imperial capital defense circle with the imperial capital as the center."
"The 40,000 troops we have gathered now are all the troops of the Central Imperial Guards closest to the imperial capital."
"Now there is no time to wait for the other troops of the Central Imperial Guard to gather."
"And - there are still some troops left here on the Imperial Capital Defense Circle."
"The battle situation in the Far East is still unclear. The imperial capital needs to leave a certain force to prepare for rushing to the Far East at any time."
"So-Bai Luofuqing, I'm really sorry, the troops that can be handed over to you now have only 40,000 people..."
Perhaps it was a bit too much to just hand over Nikita's 40,000 troops, so Vahiri added after a while of silence:
"That's better, don't Luo Fuqing."
"Now there are more than 10,000 new recruits who have been trained for one month."
"I will give you the more than 10,000 new recruits to use."
"50,000 people - this number of troops should be barely enough."
——Enough? That’s a big deal!
As soon as Vahiri finished speaking, Nikita angrily rebuked in her heart with great dissatisfaction.
It would be better not to give him these 10,000 new recruits.
After the "Harm" battle, in order to replenish the lost combat power, Wahili issued a conscription order and launched a nationwide conscription.
The more than 10,000 new recruits in the imperial capital have resolutely joined the army under the call of this conscription order.
These more than 10,000 recruits only received one month of training.
After only one month of training, it almost means no training, and combat effectiveness is almost no.
However, these more than 10,000 new recruits cannot be said to be completely useless. At least they can help to strengthen their momentum...
Nikita really wanted to say something else so that Vahiri could change his mind and lead more troops.
But after thinking for a while, Nikita suddenly realized that he seemed to have no choice but to do anything at the moment.
Judging from Vahiri's tone and attitude just now, the success rate of successfully convincing the stubborn emperor was minimal.
"Xiaguan... I understand...Xiaguan will try his best to block Su Cheng's army..."
Nikita, who had no choice but to sigh helplessly and accept the cruel situation, had nothing to do.
...
...
The Holy Hillan Empire, the imperial capital Alianmuya, the suburbs, Pochi Town, and the Musket Department.
There are only a few three craftsmen in the Musket Department now.
All of these three craftsmen were extremely interested in muskets and were more interested in the wages offered by El, so they accepted El, and became a member of the Musket Department.
As usual, the three people were chatting while studying the various parts of the musket.
"By the way—that seems something happened in the west, the Britannian Empire launched a large-scale invasion of us."
"Ah, I've heard of it."
"It's so scary."
"Don't worry, the west is far away from here. No matter how capable the Britannian army is, it is impossible for them to come from here from the west."
"I'm afraid that after this battle, the price of food will rise sharply."
...
Three craftsmen were chatting casually.
At this moment, the door of their musket department was suddenly opened.
The three craftsmen all turned their eyes to the open door.
