Chapter 44: The Otaku's First War
After about one tenth of a magic hour, the entire training ground was full of people, but there was no rules at all, which disappointed Cage, who was used to the neat formation of the People's Liberation Army. These logistics soldiers were basically ill-trained.
Cage rode past the front line on horseback, and several commanders immediately stood up. The people behind him also immediately found something wrong. The officers in front all had stern faces, and some officers were missing. The whole venue slowly quieted down, and more than 10,000 people looked at Cage.
"Today, I want to tell you a bad news. Due to the procrastination of Scapeqi and his group, the army in front failed, and they have all been executed by me."
"What, the front army failed." "It's over, what should we do?" ~~~~ The people below began to talk about it, and the whole scene was very noisy.
"Quiet." House's roar drowned out the voices of everyone in the venue, and everyone saw this big man covered in blood. It was definitely not his blood, and it was still wet. It should have just killed someone. The people in the field were so scared that no one dared to speak.
"Yes, the army in front has already lost. What should you do? Disband and go back, and probably be civilians. But have you ever thought about the comrades who died in the front, what did they fight for? Today, God has given us a chance, not to prove that we fought for the nobility and the empire, but to give you a chance to fight for yourself and your family behind you, to prove that after you die, people will not say you are a softie or a deserter, but you can say with dignity that I am a man, a man who fought for his wife, children and elders behind him. Only in this way can you The invaders will not point at the corpses and say, look, this is the people of the Reis Empire, they are all fucking garbage. Ask for an explanation for the brothers in front. They are fighting to stop their families from being bullied. They are heroes. "
Cage paused, and learned from Chairman Mao's practice of encouraging soldiers, and drew out the decorative sword in his hand, "House, insert the sword into the stone."
"Yes, Your Highness." House took the sword from Cage and came to the big stone, roaring "Ah~" The whole body shone with dazzling silver light, and the whole sword was inserted into the stone until the end of the handle.
"Today I insert the sword given to me by His Majesty the King here to tell everyone that I will build a monument here, on which will be engraved the names of all the soldiers who died in this siege, so that they can see how we defeated the invaders, their ashes will be buried here, and their heroic spirits will be with us."
"Heroic spirits are with us, heroic spirits are with us." The blood of the soldiers below was all ignited.
Cage waved his hand to calm everyone down. "What I said must count. If I also die, any comrade who participated in this battle and is still alive, please bring my words to my butler Watson, and ask him to take out my money to build this monument. At the same time, please bury my ashes here, so that my eyes will always look to the East and see how the later generations defeat the invaders. I only have one sentence, and those who offend my race will be punished no matter how far they are away."
"Those who offend my race will be punished no matter how far they are away." "Those who offend my race will be punished no matter how far they are away."
All the people underground shouted.
"Five commanders, divide into groups immediately, clerk, write down everyone's name, and save this list in the future to find my butler Watson, and ask him to build this monument. It must be engraved with 'Those who offend my race will be punished no matter how far they are away', and record the names of all the soldiers on the monument."
"Yes." Everyone answered loudly.
"Long live the Seventh Prince, long live the Seventh Prince." The people below shouted loudly, and Cage was also excited, riding a horse and waving past each team of soldiers. Just like a military parade.
The remaining five commanders came to the big tent in the evening, and all the troops were re-divided. The clerk was taking the time to record the names of each soldier.
Seeing that the five people had arrived, Cage immediately ordered, "George, Harry, Cole, Barber, Gore, you all select 200 warriors above level three from your respective troops and hand them over to House. House, I have an important task for you to do. You and the five commanders will lead the people later. Tell the soldiers who are going to go that this is a life-and-death mission. Those who are willing can go, and they must be good at riding."
"Yes."
"George, the current task of your troops is to continuously collect the defeated remnants in these three places, and kill those who are disobedient. Let the clerk register each soldier who comes, including all the information of the original troops, and detailed to each team."
"Yes."
"Harry, you lead the engineering brigade to expand the tent immediately. If there are not enough people, find these remnants to do it. George, you have to cooperate Harry will do it. "
"Yes."
"Cole, your task is to dig a trench a hundred steps in front of each entrance and exit of the tent. The trench should be one person deep and more than one and a half person lengths wide. It should be ensured that the horses cannot cross the trench. Only about half a person's width should be left at each entrance. At the same time, cut down the trees in the back to make chevaux de frise and long wooden boards. "
"Yes."
"Barber, Gore, you two take the troops of the headquarters and go to Kaba Canyon and Jianshui Pass respectively. Each person should bring ten days of rations. I will let Golden Eagle take you the specific tasks. Remember the appearance of my Golden Eagle."
"Yes."
"Everyone go down and prepare, and set off immediately. House, you stay for a while."
"Yes, Your Highness."
After the five commanders saluted, they immediately went down to prepare according to Cage's instructions. "House has an important mission for you to do."
"Yes, Your Highness."
"You have to follow the route map I gave you to go to the enemy's rear and launch an attack on their logistics camp according to my requirements. This is a very dangerous mission, but I hope you can come back alive to see me."
"Your Highness, just give me your orders." House had a resolute face. It seemed that he had been waiting for the war for too long.
"This is the map of the front part. Every time you walk a section, I will let Da Jin give you specific instructions. Do you understand?"
"Yes."
"Okay, go and ask them for people. They must have superb riding skills and military strength above level three. If they are not strong enough, it is better not to have them. If the five commanders do not obey orders, come and tell me."
"Yes." House took the order and went down.
Cage felt a special headache. He was frightened by the bloody scene in the morning and has not recovered until now. It seems that as a general, iron blood is necessary. His mental quality is not good enough. Now he has no intention of eating. He wants to vomit when he smells meat.
Cage's order was well executed, probably because Cage's agitation this afternoon was very useful. Now time is life. Cage estimates that he will have to accept the remnants from tomorrow morning. He will definitely be attacked within one to two days.
All the cavalry led by Lena are now driving away the remnants. The four princes seem to have taken their guard camps in another direction. It seems that they want to escape back to the capital. It's a pity for these lower-level remnants. It's a pity to die in vain. Cage feels sad for them.
Why do many people like the feeling of one call and a hundred responses? Cage felt it today. It was very refreshing. The feeling of commanding thousands of troops was like you were the only one in this world. Cage used almost all the knowledge he could understand, and converted all the things he saw in the military books into practical applications. Cage is very grateful to the ancestors of China for writing so many excellent works, such as "The Art of War by Sun Tzu", "Meng De's New Book", "The Art of War by Wu Qi", "The Art of War by Sun Bin", "War Analysis" and other excellent military books, which enable Cage to apply them to actual battles.
If you have read Romance of the Three Kingdoms, some of the above battle examples can also be used. The Manchus defeated the Ming Dynasty based on Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and now they want to shine in the other world.
