Otherworldly Castle Era

In early May, the city of Apocalypse was already a bit hot. The residents put on light clothing, and all kinds of costumes were intertwined on both sides of the bustling streets.

In the corner of the inner city residential area, Wang Da is already full of hair. He is sitting on the bench under the shade of the courtyard, holding a pot of black-colored inferior tea in one hand, and an unfolded one in the other. Reading the letter paper carefully, it looked like I was afraid that a word or a symbol was missed.

This letter is his only son, Wang An sent back from Guihua City. The letter tells about Wang An's current situation, saying that he has become the chief of the accountant, and he is in charge of two bookkeepers.

In the letter, Wang An also said that he met a girl who worked in a bank in Guihua City and was interested in her, but he didn't know what the other party thought. At the end of the letter, Wang An asked Wang Da and his wife to pay more attention to their health. He was very concerned about it in the north...

"Hey, this kid has finally found a target. They are all 19 or close to 20 years old. I think when I was this old..." Wang Da read the letter and carefully put it away.

"When was it old?" At this moment, Wang Da's wife walked out of the house wearing an apron and carrying a vegetable basket. While asking casually, she walked to Wang Da and put the vegetable basket aside: "Take care of the dishes. ."

"It's not a letter from Wang An's child, saying that he fell in love with a girl in the northern city of Naturalization." Wang Da said and raised the letter in his hand to his wife.

When Wang Da’s wife heard the words, she was taken aback, and then she was overjoyed. She squatted down beside Wang Da, took the letter and read it out. Regardless of whether she could read or understand the words, she stared at the letter and couldn’t move her eyes away: "Really Ah? Did you say when will you get married? When will I be able to hold my grandson?"

"You haven't written the eight characters yet. Why are you rushing. You don't know how to read?" Wang Da retrieved the letter from his wife, folded the envelope carefully, and saw that he heard nothing from him. His unconcerned wife, he continued: "The letter just said that he liked a girl who works in a bank..."

Next is Wang Da and his wife's family length, telling some trivia about life.

In his free time, Wang Da thought of the battle at the northern border gate last year. It is said that it happened outside the city of Guihua. When he heard the news, he was worried for Wang An for a long time. Wang An took it back.

But in the end Wang Da still didn't do this. He was also a group leader who worked for the great king, and he couldn't do anything illegal. Besides, he trusted Xia Guo's army very much.

On the other hand, when Wang Da heard the news, the war in the north had basically been pushed beyond Pingguan City, and he didn't need to do this at all.

Until now, when he heard that the army was about to recruit on a large scale, Wang Da's inner worries were truly eliminated.

"Oh~" Wang Da sighed again and watched the neighbors discussing who’s children who had returned from the army were being recalled again. The children of who and who succeeded in joining the army made the others envied. This made Wang Da think of the distance again. Wang'an, hundreds of kilometers to the north.

In mid-August, at this time Xia Guo seemed to be in a sea of ​​fire. The hot sun roasted the earth mercilessly, but it also allowed the rice in the farmland to mature quickly.

In the Shanhaiguan barracks, according to the latest order of the Military Department, the army is being expanded, especially the first brigade, and the current first division is the first army to expand.

Brigadier commander, no, Di Qing, who should be a lieutenant commander now, looks at the latest expansion plan. Even the unsmiling one is now smiling. After all, who will be unhappy after being promoted?

Not to mention that the army in his hand suddenly increased from over 11 thousand to over 46,500. This multiplied military strength is what makes Di Qing so happy.

"General, the last batch of recruits has arrived, with a number of five thousand." At this time, Lu Su walked in and reported to Di Qinghui with his fists: "Counting this group of people, our first division is finally full."

"Well, I have worked so hard for the Chief of Staff." After hearing Lu Su's report, Di Qing nodded in satisfaction, and finally asked, "What percentage of the recruits are recruited?"

Lu Su heard Di Qing's question, thought for a moment, and replied with a fist: "Back to the general, there are less than one regiment of recruits who have served in the military, and the rest are all newly enlisted."

"There is less than one regiment? Less than eight thousand people?" When Di Qing heard that there were only so few experienced recruits, he asked in disbelief, "Isn't the whole army retired by one brigade every year? How come there are only so many new recruits? Someone?"

"General..." Lu Su was a little helpless about this. He explained: "Since the establishment of the compulsory brigade was cancelled, the number of soldiers retired every year is different. Besides, this is only the past few years? And it's not just ours. The first division needs to be expanded, and the rest of the army also needs to be expanded."

After listening to Lu Su's explanation, Di Qing finally remembered it. He just didn't think about it, because he just thought of so many inexperienced recruits who wanted to start training from the beginning, and he felt a little headache.

Counting the original more than 10,000 elite veterans, experienced soldiers accounted for less than half of the division, and most of the remaining soldiers were all recruits who didn’t understand anything. How could this not make him feel a headache? .

Since the abolition of the conscript brigade, the military department responsible for the training of recruits has been responsible for the re-distribution of qualified soldiers to the armed forces according to their performance and volunteers.

In other words, the first division led by Di Qing is all basic soldiers, not as unbearable as he said, but it also depends on who is compared.

If you compare them with the indigenous soldiers abroad, these soldiers who came out of the boot camp after three months of training are already elite, but compared with the "veterans" who crossed the battlefield in the original Xia Guo, there are There is a big difference.

"There is no way, I can only practice slowly." Di Qing thought, and told Lu Su: "Step up to train the recruits and have the power of the first battle as soon as possible."

"Yes, General!"...

------------

At the end of December, the world north of the Linhai Mountains was covered with snow and wind, and the multi-party forces that had been fighting incessantly also had some respite.

Andre Buckman was in his castle at this time to meet the knight commander who had just returned from the battlefield: Ibby Urry.

"Iby, it's been hard work." Andre first verbally soothed, and then immediately asked what he cared about most: "What's the situation on the battlefield? How long will it take to defeat Fulimet?"

"My lord, my subordinates led an army of 30,000 and an army of 150,000 composed of the other four countries. They fought fiercely with the army of the Fulimet country for more than a year, and it has not yet been determined.

After Ibi answered Andre’s question, he looked at Andrew, who changed his face when he heard what he said. He hesitated and said, "My lord, my lord~www.novelmtl.com~Feimet is still It is very powerful, and the subordinates think that there will be no results if the attack continues, so it is better to withdraw.

"Hey~!" Andre sighed long after hearing this, and said in a deep tone: "You think the Lord does not want to retreat? But this is not the Lord's decision!"

Ibi understood Andre's words and pointed to the south, "Could it be..."

"That's it!" Andre replied affirmatively: "Otherwise, the monarch doesn't have a way to escape like Parker." He is now broken, even "fleeing." The word also speaks bluntly.

Hearing this, Ibi didn’t know what to say, and he had no way to rescue the Buckman nation from the current predicament. The only way was to maintain the status quo and exchange the lives of civilians for the continuation of the entire force. .

But such a solution, whether it is Andre or Ian, or the other monarchies, must know that this is not a long-term solution, but what else can be done?

"It would be great if Buckman Nation was as powerful as Xia Nation!" I don't know when this sentence sounded in the hearts of the two at the same time.
