Chapter 326 (1/2)
Although the crocodile Presbyterian Council has tried its best to withdraw the crocodiles from the West Bank.
However, the disadvantages of their weak control were exposed at this time. Many small or remote villages and gathering places could not be informed at all, let alone the savages who were not under their control.
Whether on the east or west coast, more or less, there will be crocodile people left behind.
The Kingsley family had no time to pay attention to them before, but now they need to. Naturally, they think of them.
”Send people back to the border cities and recruit mercenaries. The price is double that of the last one.” Once again, ackmeiser hit the original criminal alliance.
They've been used as cannon fodder last time.
This time, because the Kingsley family was well prepared, they did not pay to hire them.
Now that there is a shortage of cannon fodder, nature thinks of them for the first time.
Due to the reputation of the criminal alliance, even if it has been under the Kingsley family's rule, there are still many criminals who come to join us for one reason or another every day.
Maybe out of the swamp of despair, I don't want to make a fuss.
Perhaps out of the need to be able to recruit a mercenary.
The Kingsley family did not set out to rectify the criminal alliance.
Now it seems that the choice is right.
There is still no problem in recruiting 30000 or 40000 mercenaries with a high reward.
Compared with the crocodile people, this is a kind of high-level cannon fodder with a little fighting power. There are some brave people among them, which may bring a lot of surprise.
”Do you want to discuss this matter with your majesty?” One of the generals reminded him in a very weak voice.
”I see.” Akmether's face was dark and he waved his hand. There was a kind of impatience in his voice.
In the past, akemaiser had absolute control over such matters. After all, this was the concept advocated by the Kingsley family. If you can spend money to solve the problem, you should give priority to spending money to solve it, especially on the premise of reducing the death rate of our elite soldiers.
However, with the widespread use of the herald hawk, this kind of control and contingency in akemeiser's hands is becoming smaller and smaller. In case of no special emergency, it is necessary to ask Duke buck for instructions, especially when a large amount of money is used.
What's more, Duke buck is close at hand, on the Dragon skeletons of the Commons family.
After a hasty conclusion of the military meeting here, akemether goes straight to the Dragon skeletons of stumbine.
The two families went in parallel by land and water, with a straight-line distance of no more than five kilometers, and it was a small team operation. Naturally, akemeiser did not have to go around the original road.
Ackmeiser told Barker about the situation he had detected in the past few days and said to Barker: ”there is no better strategy at present, so we can only take the road of attacking the city with ants. However, with our current manpower, it is very difficult to gnaw this hard bone. Even if we do, we will suffer heavy casualties, which will affect our next step plan. So, I wonder whether we should start from now on On the other side of the border city, pull a mercenary to serve as the vanguard of the siege. ”
”The difficulty of the Yongye army leader is far beyond our expectation.” Duke buck took a long breath and nodded his head. ”You are the supreme commander of the East army. You have the highest decision-making power. You decide that I will give my full support to this matter. Not only can mercenaries be recruited from those border cities, but also from the grain transportation teams from the Bryan family, and we can make heavy profits to see if we can recruit some brave people from them.”
”Your Majesty's thoughtfulness may help you get some help from them,” he said
These days, most of the people who go out to do business are brave or have special guards. However, these businessmen are very profitable. As long as they are allowed to make heavy profits, there is nothing they dare not do, including going to the battlefield.
In any case, what Kingsley family needs is cannon fodder for siege. It doesn't matter whether their combat effectiveness is good or not. At that time, even if they can help to consume more arrows from the Yongye army leader.
If it had not been for Duke Barker's warning, ackmeiser would not have thought of it.
Perhaps Barker had already considered this step when he lured them to deliver food.
It is not impossible for Duke buck to do such a thing.
”In addition, I will preach to the territory and organize another 50000 slave soldiers, plus 20000 elite soldiers, to take this brotherhood port at one time.” Duke buck pondered for a few seconds and then said.
”Yes.” Akemeiser was very happy. He had just wanted to ask for a mercenary, but unexpectedly he got a reinforcements, and a large number of reinforcements.
If this series of troops are gathered together, the elite and cannon fodder he can mobilize will exceed 250000.
If he doesn't have the confidence to take this city, which is less than a third of its construction, he won't have to muddle around and resign.
Duke Buck's army has both disadvantages and advantages.
Naturally, the disadvantage is that akemeiser will feel constrained by many factors. He has to go through one more procedure for many things that he can make a decision. If the two sides can reach an agreement, it's good to say that if they can't reach an agreement, then it's bad.Although Duke buck let go most of the time rationally, there were also times when he was stubborn, and it was very difficult to reverse. Every time, he was very upset. He could not directly tell him that he could play politics, but in war, you were so poor that you didn't have to command blindly.
The advantage is that under the current situation, he can directly observe the battlefield, have a more intuitive feeling and give more support.
With the follow-up support promised by Duke buck, akemeiser would not be in a hurry to attack the city.
Build camps outside brotherhood port, clear roads, build safer logistics supply lines, or transport from the rear or cut down solid wood from further places to build siege equipment.
In terms of conscription, we should go out on three sides.
No need for akemether to worry about the mobilization of forces from the kart army leader, just wait for it to be received.
However, it is necessary for him to send troops to drive away the crocodile people as cannon fodder and hire the leaders of border cities and the Blake people as mercenaries.
As time went on, the Kingsley family gathered more and more troops outside the brotherhood.
The Kingsley family is in frequent action at the same time.
Yongye military leaders are not idle. Not only are all kinds of materials being transported, but also the parts of the port that have not been completed are also stepping up construction.
If you're not happy, you're not happy.
Now we can build more.
”Can't we just sit here and wait? Let's take the opportunity to make a rush at night. ” Squatting on the head of the city, looking at the Kingsley family camp Andes tiger Tagore whimsical way.
The previous river beach sniping, for him, is an appetizer, not a bit addictive.
”You should be honest. It won't take long for you to fight an endless battle. When you don't want to fight, you won't be able to do it. Now you're itching. Go to the arena and have a discussion.” Sean rolled his eyes angrily, and didn't take his thoughtless opinions to heart.
The Yongye Army leaders all know that the Kingsley family is now mobilizing troops to prepare for the attack by the ants.
But there is no alternative but to wait patiently.
