Chapter 391 Seedling Legion(1/2)

At the Emerald Palace, with the arrival of new letters for help, Caesar IV's tense nerves suddenly relaxed.

Compared with the previous requests for money, food, equipment, and reinforcements, this wave of requests for help is much more pragmatic.

He finally knew that he needed to improve his military strength. He had never taken a fancy to the military strength of the countries in the Northern Continent.

To put it bluntly, the Alpha Kingdom alone can defeat all the countries in the Northern Continent except itself. But in terms of manpower, financial resources, and material resources, these countries combined are more than twice the size of the Alpha Kingdom.

Theoretically, if all these countries are mobilized, the fighting power of the two Alpha Kingdoms can be unleashed.

Unfortunately this is only theoretical.

A country that has been born for war for a long time and a group of countries that are used to living in peace cannot be on the same level militarily.

If the Northern Continent can really mobilize the combat power of the three Alpha Kingdoms, even if it is not the opponent of the three major foreign races, the defensive side can still protect itself.

"Countries in the Northern Continent have made requests to us, hoping that the kingdom can send military personnel to help them train their troops. Do you think this is possible?"

Caesar IV asked in a reserved manner.

Except for the seven newly recovered provinces in the North, the other kingdom provinces can definitely help a country one province at a time."

When it comes to the kingdom's strategic decisions, he really doesn't dare to overestimate the countries in the northern continent. After all, the performance of these countries has already disappointed everyone during the last orc invasion.

It's not a question of whether it can be defeated, but that even if you occupy a place, the gains outweigh the losses. The second is that it consumes a lot of military strength. The key is that it is difficult to establish rule after the war.

Even if the central governments of various countries are willing to cooperate, local noble lords may not be willing to buy it.

What's even more deceiving is that among the one hundred and sixty Warcraft Knights, there are more than 90 Knights of Warcraft who are in their infancy at this moment.

If the plan proceeds smoothly, a grand alliance with the Alpha Kingdom as the core will be formed in the Northern Continent after the war.

"Lord Earl, in addition to daily queue training, we are now studying the cooperative operations between the Warcraft Knight squads.

Regardless of combat effectiveness, as long as it can organize people, it will be a big deterrent.

Grand Duke Efiero said proudly.

On the grassland battlefield, Hudson witnessed with his own eyes the charging of the Warcraft Legion. A thousand-man Earth Dragon Legion defeated a Ursine Heavy Infantry Legion directly from the front.

After many attempts, we regrouped the knights according to the cooperation between the Warcraft.

Not to mention the threat from the Hessian Kingdom, even if the three central kingdoms advance north together, they can be stopped.

Just think about it when looking for a replacement within the royal family. If there was such a great talent, Caesar III would have discovered it long ago, and it would not be his turn to make the fortune.

When he said this, Caesar IV was obviously relieved. If all countries could really complete the reform of military mobilization mechanisms at once, he would hesitate to help.

There are currently only more than 800 Warcraft Knights. Like Hudson's Warcraft Legion, most of the Warcraft are also in their infancy.

Frankly speaking, one of the reasons why he didn't like Hudson-Mosey's tragic experience on the battlefield, and the other was that as a peer, he always had to be compared with others.

What is rare now is not military training, but reform of the mobilization mechanism. There is no way to complete the reform without encountering a life-and-death crisis and purging die-hard elements.

"Many Warcraft cubs are not yet adults, so being able to train them to this point is already pretty good.

If we copy our military mobilization system in its entirety, they will suffer the most severe losses. These people will not be willing to cut off their flesh until it is a matter of life and death.

Reason told him that if he insisted on taking charge of the military affairs of the kingdom himself, the Alpha Kingdom might also change its king.

Looking at the entire Alpha Kingdom, the half-finished warcraft army in the hands of Hudson can be ranked in the top five.

The opportunity to cultivate the pro-Alfa faction in an honest and open manner has been presented to the door. How can we turn it away?

The aristocratic world is as much about interests as it is about human relationships. It is common for decisions to be made based on personal feelings.

It is urgent to integrate the kingdom's military forces, so send someone to urge Earl Hudson to come to the royal capital as soon as possible to perform his duties."

Without this team, even if he had not been sidelined, his life would never have been as easy as it is now.

"If we send people to help them train their troops, how much can the combat effectiveness of each country be improved? Is it possible to block the front of foreign troops?"

At that point, no matter how the situation on the mainland changes, the Alpha Kingdom will remain invincible.

Take the County of Kolubia, which was annexed by the Hessians, as an example. It can only be regarded as an ordinary province in the Kingdom of Alpha, but once fully mobilized, it can also draw more than ten or two hundred thousand troops.

Different from ordinary cavalry training, the Warcraft Legion's training was also dark-eyed. In addition to emphasizing discipline and cooperation, the rest can only be left to everyone to explore on their own.

Countries have indeed extended invitations, but there are still many difficulties in implementing them.

Since everyone has extended the invitation, we must not only send people to help, but we must also do this favor beautifully.

It is a pity that the Warcraft Legion was not able to unify the mounts. From a distance, it does not look so powerful in terms of momentum.

"Your Majesty, it is the general trend to send people to support various countries and unite all the human forces in the northern continent to jointly resist the alien invasion.

Even if he wanted to lose his temper, the princes and nobles in the court would do ideological work for him. Many times, Caesar IV wanted to replace the Minister of Military Affairs.

Had it not been for the crazy slaughter of the orc army, which awakened the Moxi nobles' sense of crisis at the cost of millions of lives, the restructuring would never have been so smooth.

Our people can only help nobles who are willing to cooperate to complete military mobilization training. The overall increase in military strength in various countries may not be so optimistic!"

In the Mountain Territory, Hudson, who didn't know he was being considered, was busy patrolling the territory at the moment.

This matter is not only related to the safety of the Northern Continent, but also related to the rise and fall of the entire human race, and will definitely have a profound impact on the future international situation!"

After all, there are not many members of the Alpha royal family. All the adult males together amount to only a few dozen people.

Of course, the biggest contributors behind this are the orcs.

Caesar IV frowned and said.

Even if the nobles have foresight, they also have selfish motives! If they really want to increase their strength, the first thing everyone will think of is themselves.

The only thing that can suppress it stably is the Warcraft Legion built with the power of the kingdom. Unfortunately, due to internal struggles, the size of the establishment has been greatly reduced.

Opportunities to interfere in the internal affairs of various countries, especially the military, are rare. If it weren't for the pressure brought by foreign races on various countries, they would never do this.

In essence, Caesar IV was not a strong monarch. A large part of the reason why he was able to keep his royal power intact was because of the government team left behind by Caesar III.

…”

It's hard not to be convinced, he really doesn't have much confidence in the military. Not to mention the local nobles, even the military department of the royal capital is not willing to see him gesticulating.

But looking back now, you will find that it was this group of humble nobles who changed jobs and had a profound impact on the military development of the Principality of Moxi.

A series of specific tactics came out of Adrian's mouth, and Hudson could only nod his head.

Not to mention helping people train the army, even the last time they sent troops to rescue the Principality of Moxi, the Alpha Kingdom gained a stable ally.

Hudson doesn't want to be a pharmacist who leads the progress of the times, even if he can make money. It's only a matter of time before a scumbag pretends to be a top student.

Back then, when the Alpha Kingdom's mobilization mechanism was established, there was no shortage of bloodshed. It was just that too much time passed and it was gradually forgotten.

"Your Majesty, our Ministry of Military Affairs made an assessment earlier. The combined military strength of the countries in the Northern Continent is about 80% of the kingdom's.

There is no doubt that the Count of Kolubia not only does not have such mobilization capabilities, but the nobles also do not have tens of thousands of elite private troops in their hands, so they can only lie down when danger comes.

According to the calculation of 20% of the elite troops, this kind of troop configuration, as a defensive side, is enough to make the Hessian Kingdom dare not act rashly.

You can't expect these guys' moral integrity to rise from the ground to the sky just because the enemy changes.

I will continue to work hard. In the end, it is not me who is responsible for testing the results, but the cruel racial battlefield!

The current training is just to enhance your ability to survive on the battlefield. If you sweat more during normal times, you will bleed less on the battlefield.

However, as a king, there are times when he is powerless. The continental war involves too much, and a slight mistake can lead to the destruction of the country, so he cannot be willful.

There are 273 Warcraft Knights in the territory, but only 160 can be incorporated into the Warcraft Legion. The rest hold important positions in various departments. There is still a huge gap between the full complement of 300 people.

Grand Duke Efiero explained awkwardly.

These are all minor issues. Just have fun gathering so many Warcraft knights. Why are you picky?

Those big countries were able to assemble unified Warcraft mounts because they had slowly accumulated wealth over decades, or even hundreds of years.

Perhaps many nobles will actively participate in military training, but when it comes time to send troops to fight, all kinds of excuses will ensue.

With high mobility and high attack power, it is almost invincible in the field. No matter how elite the human infantry is, it cannot stop the frontal charge of the Warcraft Legion.

Those countries that are currently under threat from alien races may be able to fully cooperate, but more countries may not have such strong determination.

At a young and vigorous age, few people are willing to admit that they are inferior to others, and Caesar IV, who was born on the ceiling, is no exception.

Generally speaking, children of nobles can become good junior officers as long as they stay on the battlefield for one or two years.

No matter how thick the armor is, it can't withstand a kick from a monster. The gap between ordinary armies and extraordinary armies is really too big.

Fortunately, not many countries in the Northern Continent can learn the essence. Otherwise, by creating so many hedgehogs, they would be just looking for excitement for themselves.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that the Ministry of Military Affairs has already made plans for the issue of sending officers abroad. In addition to transferring some officers from the standing army, the remaining shortfalls will be allocated to the provinces.

It is definitely enough to send troops out to help allies train. After all, the Alpha Kingdom now only needs to train a large number of cannon fodder troops for various countries, rather than cultivating elites for them.

The human race's civil war cannot involve genocide. If there is too much blood on your hands, there will be many hidden dangers in future governance.

Unfortunately, it is easy to replace someone, but it is difficult to find a suitable substitute. Grand Duke Efiero is a member of the royal family and a legitimate royalist, so he cannot be replaced by someone from another faction, right?

When it comes to whether his royal power is stable, Caesar IV is still very clear-headed. He knows that he cannot destroy his foundation just for the sake of temporary pleasure.

From the princes and ministers in the court to the local fiefdom nobles, they all hope that Hudson, who is reliable in ability and character, can take charge of the overall situation at this time.

For example: when different Warcraft are formed together, they can exert different combat effectiveness.

If they are fully staffed, they will be among the top three in the kingdom, and may even be able to surpass the Warcraft Legion in the hands of the royal family.
