"Master, if you continue to pursue this, the morale of the auxiliary army will not be guaranteed. Now there are a large number of complaints in the army, and there are even voices of suspicion that you promised by your master.

Even the combat morale of those Han officers inevitably dropped sharply..."

Genevieve reported to Richard.

"It's just a group of Ottoman prisoners of war. If anyone dares to jump out, the military will deal with it.

As the supply line is lengthened, it is necessary to reduce the number of our army. Send teams of people to occupy residential areas with fertile fields and let them assist the officials who follow up to check the fields.

At least we have to make our posture, after all, they will need to fight for us at that time.

Although the Ottoman Expeditionary Force is now defeated and fled, after passing Dashi Town, there is an endless desert and Gobi Desert, and there is no place to obtain supplies. If the Ottoman Expeditionary Force does not want to be driven back to his hometown, it will definitely fight stubbornly in the Anguofu area, and another tough battle will inevitably occur.

Don't forget that our enemy Lindenwan and his Seme Legion have absorbed Seme Legion from all collective farms west of the Pamir Mountains during this period, supplementing their own war losses and completing the reorganization. This team is second only to the Anatolian Legion in the Ottoman Expeditionary Force.

Most importantly, Lindenwan and the Semi soldiers under his command were full of hatred for us!

The remaining Ottoman human servants have been out of their minds, but the Seme Legion must take it seriously!”

"As for orders, master."

As the Ming army pursued further, the auxiliary military personnel led by Richard were constantly decreasing. Some auxiliary military officers and soldiers were stationed on the spot during the marching. On the one hand, they maintained the stability of the supply line, and on the other hand, they began to inspect the unowned fertile land in the local area to prepare for the next work of dividing the land.

The decline in the number of auxiliary soldiers chasing the front line has reduced the pressure on logistics supply, so the team chasing Richard did not increase the geometric level of the supply pressure as the distance was extended.

However, the number of troops led by Richard is steadily decreasing!

This made You An feel a little lucky when he was distressed.

The Ming army's pursuit made You An difficult, but the Ming army's behavior of reducing the size of the pursuit army gave You An hope of counterattack.

Most importantly, Youan has completed the meeting with the Linden Wansemen Legion, which is resting in the rear!

After seeing You An, Lin Dengwan immediately proposed a very meaningful plan to You An - to support Long Liguo to establish a puppet regime!

Originally, Yu'an thought that the Ottoman Expeditionary Force could overwhelm all the forces of resistance and easily flatten the entire Western Regions, so he naturally would not take this plan seriously.

So Lin Dengwan was wisely not saying it out loud at that time, even though Long Liguo discussed this plan with Lin Dengwan at the beginning of his surrender!

There are still benefits of establishing a puppet regime. At least, the Han people who surrendered to the Ottoman Empire can find a backbone. At the same time, they also have a legitimate name to integrate these surrendered traitors and become the armed forces and bureaucratic class of the puppet regime.

When this puppet regime is formed, the traitors surrounding the puppet regime will be used to control and integrate ordinary Han people, and whether they are formed into cannon fodder legions or organized them to reclaim collective farmland and farmland, they can provide considerable help to the Ottoman Expeditionary Force.

The most important thing is that this method is that the Han people manage the Han people, which fundamentally solved the obstacles of language and culture between the Ottoman Expeditionary Force and the Han people, and the management efficiency is naturally very high.

Those traitors who surrendered to the Ottoman Empire gained the benefits of rights and would naturally work harder to serve the Ottoman Empire!

However, the puppet regime is also a regime. The Ottoman Empire has been committed to turning the vassal state into a province. How can it happen the opposite?

What's more, the Ming Kingdom, which occupied the Western Regions, was far from the point of losing its country. Establishing a puppet regime was destined to be at a disadvantage in the orthodox legal principles, and it was only in the minds of the traitors that they could have a certain position...

Therefore, when you are strong, You'an will only sneer at this plan.

However, Yu'an's failure in the Battle of Shule gave Long Liguo an opportunity. Long Liguo knew very well that he had been on the list of deaths in the Ming Dynasty. Once he was caught by the Ming army, it would be no exaggeration to cut him into pieces!

Therefore, Long Liguo has always wanted to gain a foundation for re-establishing his life. When a frivolous Ottoman noble without any foundation, he obviously cannot give Long Liguo a sense of security enough.

What if those dark elves go back on their word?

Therefore, Long Liguo wants to make himself more useful!

From the moment Richard started, Long Liguo surrendered to Richard, Long Liguo understood one truth: it is not scary to be used by others, the most terrifying thing is that it does not even have the value of being used!

If Long Liguo wants to make himself a useful chess piece, the best way is naturally to establish a Han puppet regime with himself as the core to confront the Ming Dynasty!

No matter how weak the puppet regime is, it is still a regime, and the importance of Long Liguo will suddenly rise!

So, Long Liguo found Lin Dengwan, the "enemy" who was very important in You'an's eyes.

Then, after Lindenwan and Youan met, the plan was placed in front of Youan.

"This Long Liguo is a wonderful person. He actually made the plan of the puppet regime so detailed. It seems that he is also a very experienced 'traitor'."

You'an's tone was undisguised and sarcastic tone. Although Long Liguo is now working for him, traitors are unpopular in any country, unless they are emerging rebels!

In Yu An's eyes, Long Liguo was just a role model of political surrender. After defeating Ming Dynasty, Long Liguo could quietly disappear.

From this point of view, Long Liguo’s concerns are very correct!

After all, Long Liguo did not have any substantial status at that time.

"Long Liguo was the founding father of the Ming Dynasty after all. The puppet regime he formed has more or less influence among the Han people. At least it can save us a lot of effort to integrate the existing Han people's power."

Lindenwan reminded with a serious expression.

"Well, I know this, but how can the country be established? Since it is a Han regime, it must be in line with the habits of the Han people..."

You An asked with a frown. He was not very clear about the customs of the Han people, and his history of the Ming Dynasty came from hearsay.

"We can restore the title of Tang Kingdom!

The Tang Kingdom was the orthodox dynasty of East Asia that Richard overthrew. It was destroyed for only a few years and still had a certain influence among the people. Moreover, Long Liguo was originally an official under the Tang Kingdom. Although he was a last-rate... he could also raise the banner of restoring the Tang system!

After all, the Ming Dynasty was not a monolithic part, but Richard overthrew the entire Han landlord and gentry class!”
