Otherworldly Castle Era

　　 June 22nd, Seventeenth Year of Apocalypse, the day of the decisive battle between Xia Guo and the Allied Forces!

　　 At the same time, as far away as Xia Kingdom’s Apocalyptic City on the other side, Yang Song also saw the dynamics of Li Jing’s land army from the system’s mini-map.

　　 Yang Song saw from the small map that all the land troops were out of the camp. Although he could not hear the sound, how could he not guess that this was a call for battle with such a big action?

　　 While Yang Song was paying close attention to the dynamics of Xia Guo's land army, Chen Ping had put on his court clothes and was about to go out in the mansion of the Intelligence Department.

　　 "Are there reports coming from the front today?" Chen Ping picked up the information compiled last night from his desk, and asked the subordinates who followed him.

　　 "Back to the director, today the two armies did not send back the battle report." The subordinates followed Chen Ping, although he had a folder in his hand, but he still remembered such questions without checking.

Chen Ping heard the words and did not stop his actions. He picked up the intelligence and turned around and walked out of the door. As he walked, he told his subordinates, "Okay, now the officer is going to see the king, especially the land, if there is any The latest information is returned and sent to the palace immediately without neglect!"

　　 "Yes, Director, if there is any information from the front, the subordinates will send them to the palace immediately." The subordinates bowed their hands to the back of Chen Ping who walked out the door, and at the same time responded loudly to Chen Ping's instructions.

　　 On the other side, in the administrative department office, Xun Yu also wore court clothes. He also picked up several memorials from the case, and walked out of the administrative department's gate without saying a word, and got on the carriage and headed towards the palace.

At this moment, in the weather city, as long as the qualified and closely related government offices, the chief officials basically rushed to the palace one after another. Although it was not called by the great king Yang Song, how about the important officials at this time? Can you stay out of it?

　　 After Yang Song learned that the ministers had come one after another, he asked them to inform them to gather at the Yeejeong Hall and discuss important matters together. He had already guessed the intentions of the ministers.

　　 "See the King!" Yang Song walked out from behind the wall and saw only a few people bustling in the Yeejeong Hall, and went straight to his exclusive seat.

"All the princes should be flat." Yang Song raised his hand to indicate that the important ministers would be exempted from the ceremony, and then went straight to the subject, "Hundreds of thousands of troops on the land ahead will face the enemy today. This is a big deal. You don't need to be polite. Let's start reporting! "

　　 "Enlighten the King!" Chen Ping stepped out of the queue and bowed his hand to Yang Song, reporting that "According to frontal intelligence, General Li Jing and Liu Ji had decided to fight today..."

Chen Ping briefly reported the developments of his army, and then talked about the enemy’s intelligence: "The enemy has more than 300,000 troops, with two knight commanders commanding the enemy’s troops inside and outside the city, and more than 200,000 troops outside the city. , 100,000 troops were stationed in the city. However, according to the information obtained by the minister, neither of the two knight commanders had any experience in commanding an army of this size, and based on their previous battles, neither of them was outstanding.”

　　 Chen Ping did not say any inferences. He was only responsible for reporting the information he had obtained truthfully. It was not his responsibility as an intelligence officer to make decisions and decisions.

Then Xun Yu walked out of the queue, took out a memorial from his arms and handed it to Yang Song. It wrote some information that will be reported only in the middle of the year, such as the geometry of wasteland, new people, new villages, new factories, steel Yield or something.

　　 Xunyu estimated that Yang Song saw the same thing, he said, "The king, the war ministers don't know, but the harvest in the first half of this year is quite abundant in this country. Regardless of whether there is more than food or various commodities, please rest assured, the king!"

　　 Xunyu is in charge of national administration. He doesn't need to know about military development, but he knows that he wants to give Yang Song a stable rear, a country full of materials and powerful.

　　 After Xun Yu gave a simple and reliable report, Zhang Juzheng, the director of the Department of Finance and Taxation, also handed out a memorial in the same way.

"The King of Enlightenment, in the first half of the year, my country has already been taxed 120 million Xia currency, and the total expenditure is over 110 million Xia currency, leaving 8.3 million Xia currency, and the national treasury is 13 million. Two summer coins."

Basically, Xia Guo’s fiscal taxation is used as much as it collects. Many of them are due to the construction of new factories and new commercial markets. After all, there is not much money in agriculture, and agriculture is Xia’s largest industry. It is also the foundation of a country!

　　 Although in the eyes of outsiders, the income of 50 million gold coins in half a year is simply an unimaginable astronomical figure, but for Xia Guo, this figure is only a small part of his national strength.

　　 The migration and resettlement of the new population, the construction of villages and towns, the investment in infrastructure such as roads and bridges, the opening of various factories and the encouragement of private factories, education investment...There are also many places to spend money, even more!

　　 It is already a great contribution to Zhang Juzheng, director of the "pocket bag," that there is a small amount of surplus, so no one can say anything about it, even Yang Song often laments that it is fortunate to have Director Zhang.

　　 Finally, there are reports from the various departments of the Military Department. Among them, the report by Yang Ren from the Rear Security Department, who is in charge of military logistics support, is a bit surprising.

　　 "Knowing the great king, this expedition will provide logistical support for the enlistment of one hundred thousand militiamen and one hundred thousand foreigners, which can ensure that the soldiers ahead have no worries."

　　 Just when Yang Song thought Yang Ren, who was tired, had finished reporting, he was about to say a few words of relief, but Yang Ren also handed him a memorial.

　　 Yang Song opened it up curiously and found out that Yang Ren actually gave advice on the current logistics system. Since there are suggestions, of course, the shortcomings of the existing system have been discovered.

Just listen to Yang Renhui’s report, “Great King, when the soldiers of the country were not reorganized and expanded, part of the permanent militia was enough to guarantee the army’s usual loss and supply. Under-satisfied

The needs of combat soldiers. "

　　 The memorial that Yang Song saw only wrote the suggestion results, but there was no detailed reason, so he heard the question, "Are 100,000 militias not enough to guarantee the logistics of combat soldiers? What's the matter?"

　　 Yang Ren replied with his hand, "Hui King, logistical support is very complicated, including bridges and roads, material transportation, camp construction, food and medical care, ordnance repairs and other aspects."

Speaking of this, Yang Ren paused. After seeing Yang Song understand, he continued to reply, "If it is hard work such as building bridges, building roads, building camps, and transporting supplies, the militiamen are competent enough, but if they encounter damage to ordnance and many wounded. At this time, it is no longer something the militia can fully bear."

　　 It turned out to be like this~www.novelmtl.com~ Yang Song nodded secretly, it turned out that this troop training has yielded results.

　　 It is no wonder that Yang Ren proposed to set up a special logistics support army for professional logistics support, instead of relying on a handful of militias to do it in the past.

Yang Song knows this, because the more technically advanced the army, the more professionals are needed. For example, military doctors, maintenance soldiers, engineers who can use gunpowder and other professional tools, and even those who take care of military horses, need to be professional. Personnel.

　　 In the past, the size of Xia’s army did not increase, and enough people can always be found from the people to deal with these matters-this is also one of the work of the Post Office.

　　 After this army expansion, the scale has come up, even before the expedition, because Xia Guo has the advantage of this field in his own country. Although this is a problem, it is not a big problem.

　　 But it is different after the expedition. There are not so many people abroad who can drive it. Only a part of professional personnel can do a few people's work by one person, and this problem is suddenly magnified.

　　 “Therefore, the minister suggested that a professional logistics support army should be formed, dedicated to various professional fields. If possible, there will be no need to recruit militias for logistics support in the future." At this point, Yang Ren had finished what he wanted to say.

Yang Song thought for a while. Now that both Li Jing and Liu Ji are out, he can't find a person to discuss, so he didn't make a decision right away. "It's hard work. Now the war is going on. This matter will be discussed after the army triumphs." Right!"
