Roman Empire of Total War

Do you know what history is? Growing under the truth, understanding the past and foreseeing the future, knowing it is history.

——Kishimoto Saishi (Japanese JUMP cartoon artist, father of Naruto)

After roughly discussing about the division of troops to protect the fortification, Aegis returned to the topic and pointed to the four blue vertical lines on the map to continue: "These four vertical lines are my preliminary route for sending troops, but only The easternmost one is the main force of our Northern Expeditionary Force. The other three marching routes are all cover and used to distract the Mongolian army."

Looking at these four marching routes that are not far from each other, and there is a Mongolian bastion that is closer to the second marching route, the cavalry battalion commanding Hornick is very puzzled: "General, if our main force is from the east If you go, then the second-line cover army has the possibility of directly encountering the main army of the Mongolian Empire. Isn't it too risky to do this?"

Although the other generals did not speak, their expressions indicated that their thoughts were the same as that of Honeike; Aguis was not surprised at this. He pointed to the three marching routes and explained: "The three cover troops, It will be made up of His Majesty Jurchen cavalry who are assigned to our Northern Expedition; these Jurchen cavalry can't beat the Mongolian cavalry in frontal combat.

This slightly humorous statement by Aguis gave the generals in the meeting room a somewhat benevolent and clear smile; as Aguis said, the Jurchen cavalry certainly cannot beat the Mongolian cavalry, However, if you are determined to run, the Mongolian cavalry will certainly not be able to catch up.

After the generals laughed, Agis put forward his own idea on the division of troops: "I intend to divide the two white flags of 150 cattle recorded in total into three, and each fifty cattle recorded 15,000 The Jurchen cavalry formed a large army of cover; in order to play a role in dispersing the strength of the Mongolian base camp, their main combat task was to destroy all the defending empty Mongolian tribes along the way to the north."

Hornick suggested: "General, the black flag is extremely strong, but the combat strength is uneven. On the contrary, the two white flags are more powerful; it is better to draw out the weaker cattle in the black flag. Act as a cover army and leave the two white flags in the main army?"

From the purely military point of view, Hornick’s proposal is completely without problems, but war is not just a military issue. It is often the case that the problem is solved from a political point of view; Agis gazes slightly and it is not mature enough. At a glance, Honeike just happened that there was no Jurchen Eight Banner General in the conference room, he explained unabashedly:

"The reason why I chose to split the two white flags to form a three-way cover army, instead of using the black flag with strong military strength and uneven combat, there are two main reasons; first, the defense of the Mongolian tribe is empty, it is impossible Even the young and strong herdsmen do not have. In the face of the Mongolian tribe with strong resistance, only the Jurchen cavalry with stronger combat power can better complete the destruction task I gave them."

"Second, currently only two red flags in the Jurchen Eight Banners are fully loyal to His Majesty, and the black flags organized by His Majesty are the third power that His Majesty is loyal to His Majesty in the Jurchen tribe; therefore, what we need to do is Try to avoid letting the Black Flag take risks and enhance the Black Flag’s strength within the scope of the ability and timing. This is the situation your Majesty wishes to see."

It turns out so! After understanding the reason why Agis did this, all the generals in the conference room except Leonida showed a look of sudden enlightenment; since there was an instructive element from their loyal emperor, then things naturally settled like this. .

Leonida, who did not comment on the matter, suddenly proposed: "Among the Mongolian tribes defeated by the three-way cover army, the real Mongolian tribe can be taken over by the old department of the Crown Prince Chichi and the other grassland tribes conquered by the Mongolians. , You can force them to move south to the actual control area of ​​our army and merge into the two red flags; while weakening the overall strength of the Mongols, increase the strength of the two red flags."

The proposal made by Leonidas is very valuable for weakening the overall national strength of the Mongolian Empire and enhancing the strength of the two red flags, because in the seemingly powerful Mongolian Empire, there are not many pure Mongolian tribes, Xianbei, Rongdi, Rouran Tribes such as Qianghu, Shiwei, Sushen, and Uighurs who were conquered by the Mongols had more people than pure-bred Mongolians, so they are the foundation of the Mongolian empire's growing strength.

Regarding Leonidas' suggestion of a somewhat bottom-line salary, Aggis was still more moved, but he did not immediately agree; after a little consideration, he only pointed out: "This proposal is good, but specific How to implement it should also be reported to your majesty, which is determined by your majesty; after all, the Jurchen cavalry is currently the main cavalry force in the empire, and there are more than two red flags in the Jurchen tribe."

There is Aguiz’s explanation of the formation of the three-way cover army first, and the generals present do not understand the true meaning of his remarks; after taking this topic lightly, Akisi once again pointed his hand to the area south of the horizontal line : "The strategic deployment of our army's soldiers divided into four routes was carried out after the area was completely controlled. Therefore, before the soldiers divided into four routes, we must first leave the left-behind troops at the fortification site."

In response to the look of the master, the infantry battalion commander Krasson took the initiative to ask: "General, our infantry battalion's main task is to cooperate with the main forces. It is better to separate six squadrons from our infantry battalion and stay in place These six fortification points."

"Then it is your sole responsibility."

"It will be obeyed at the end!"

"You guys, we will formally send troops to the north after three days, and the ministries must learn more about the customs of the grassland ministries while preparing for battle, and avoid conflicts with our friendly Mongolian army as much as possible. important!"

"Last will obey the order!" the generals replied in unison.

"Then you should go back first. I will also go to the Marquis of Quintus and let him help us to apply for your Majesty; for the specific assignment of combat tasks, we will discuss it together in the military discussion two days after the expedition. "

"promise!"

After walking out of the conference room with Generals, Aegis watched the generals leave the city and went to the military camp outside the city. He then diverted to the City Defense Army Command in the city, which has now been temporarily requisitioned by Quintus as his empire. Northern Garrison Command.

Agis and Quintus are both system generals. The two of them were more open and honest when discussing some things together. There was no concealment or concealment of Agis. They straightforwardly identified a few of the needs of the emperor during the military discussion. The ruling told Quintus.

Because all these things involve the Jurchen Eight Banners, it is also considered to be within the scope of Quintus’ power; in view of this, Quintus agreed to Aji with his own power before reporting these things to the emperor. Sri Lanka’s application on behalf of the Northern Army.

The two blue flags of Dudu and Nikan will assist the infantry troops of the Northern Expeditionary Force to stay in the fortification during the fortification of the fortress; the two red flags of Alexandria and Antico, the two of Dorgon and Azig Huang Qi will participate in the southward movement of non-Mongolian tribes.
