Chapter 351 [Coming to the door](1/2)
Chapter 351 [Here I'm here]
Duoduo's scream was so loud that everyone around could hear it clearly. Xia Ya's face collapsed at that time, and she turned her head and glared at the magician fiercely.
However, Adelin didn't recognize the vulgar guy who threw him in front of him at first. After carefully identifying it, he recognized it as the unlucky magician. The maid mistress made the long-legged girl feel excited. She only felt that this vulgar guy was a little pleasing to the eyes. She couldn't help but glance at Xia Ya with resentful eyes, but she didn't expect that the rusty raid had turned her head quickly, and then she sighed quietly.
The next thing is to go into the city.
Obviously, Xia Ya, the commander of the first army, disappeared for many days, and had a considerable impact on the morale of the army and the people. Under Green's arrangement, Xia Ya Dao and everyone followed behind, walked all the way through the city gate, crossing the street, and walking all the way to the garrison mansion in the city, which gave Xia Ya a chance to pass the city, and used this to express a signal to the military and civilians in the city: I am back!
Although Xia Ya was in power for a long time, she really had no good governance. When it comes to the hearts of the people, she might not get much. But there is one thing: he is a local official and the leader of a county. Speaking of which, although Green is an old man in the army, his official position is only at the battalion level now. Even though Xia Ya has no good governance, when she was restoring Mesta City, Xia Ya presided over the commemoration of the former county magistrate Clinsia who died in his country. After the rumors of this action were made, it was very heartless to the people of Moor County. Everyone just felt that this Lord Xia Ya had no idea how many skills he had, but at least he seemed to be a kind person.
It is faintly that Xia Ya has long become the backbone of the whole city - after all, the empire has been established for thousands of years, and this official-oriented idea has been rooted in people's hearts. After all, the turtle is also a formal county chief.
So, all the way through the market, many civilians saw the adult who had disappeared for many days back from afar and smiled happily and relievedly. Some people stood there from afar, bent down and took off their hats to salute.
Unlike ordinary civilians, I met some cavalry patrolling the city along the way. Seeing that Xia Ya was back, she gave out a burst of warm cheers.
These cavalry were adapted from the original horse thieves, most of them lurked into Siltan County with Charia to provoke the relationship between the Odins and the Corsica Military Region, sleeping in the wind and in the open, fighting and killing people, letting fire, seeing blood, drinking, drinking wine, and eating meat... When it comes to the relationship between men in the army, it is already very strong at this point, so Charia has established a lot of prestige among a group of cavalry.
Seeing that Shaya came back, the cavalry cheered and excited.
——The only disharmonious episode is that the cheers of these cavalrymen were occasionally mixed with a few shouts like "The Son-in-law is back", which made Adeline, who was sitting in the carriage behind him, suddenly become exciting...
The long-legged girl immediately glanced at Xia Ya with a very vigilant look. Although this poor man may not be very smart, women are somewhat naturally smart in this kind of thing, and the long-legged beauty immediately showed a bit of nervousness to protect food.
Returning to the garrison palace - it has now been changed to the temporary county magistrate's palace. Xia Ya had no time to rest, and immediately summoned all the generals and subordinates in the city to discuss matters under Green's instructions.
In fact, nothing happened. It was just that he, the boss, disappeared for so many days and has only been back now. He always has to explain to his subordinates who are stumbling with him.
Xia hurriedly settled Adeline and Defini in the backyard of the mansion, and asked Dodoro to lead it in, temporarily living with Yulia, the widow of bald man Kevin, and then sent someone to guard the front yard and start the military discussion.
There are really no civil servants in this temporary county magistrate's office. The whole room is full of big and rude men in the army. As for the county magistrate, Shaya, it is also temporary. After Clinsia died in his country, he temporarily took over as the county magistrate as the chief garrison, which is also in line with the imperial legal procedures.
Everyone gathered together, and Charia casually asked about the situation of the days he left. Green rewarded them one by one. In fact, there was nothing much, nothing more than the renovation of the army, and Green had already begun to let the refugees in the city go out of the city and return to the countryside to farm. Because the food in the city is limited after all, if you don’t hurry up, in the second half of the year, you will probably have a famine problem.
However, given the strength of the city, people were only arranged to return to the villages and towns near Denzel City to farm, and there were also cavalry patrols back and forth, which made the cavalry's task heavier.
Fortunately, Green, an old slut in the army, took this opportunity to disperse the cavalry and reorganize it, and there were many new recruits. As a result, most of the original old horse thieves were disbanded, gradually reducing the horse thieves in this cavalry.
The second thing is weapons. Weapons such as swords and armor are not afraid of shortages for the time being. After all, Denzel City is also a military town. It was the base camp of the war zone for the war against Odin before, and there is still a lot of inventory in the warehouse.
But Green suggested: The crossbow seems to be a little too small. After all, the arrows are consumables. Some of them were consumed in stock after several battles that were not large in scale. If a war comes, it may not be enough. Fortunately, Denzel City is a military town, and there are also craftsmen, but after all, the time for manufacturing is still a bit slow.
"Our army has reached 20,000 now, but the reserved arrows can only support the demand for a small-scale battle. Although we have arranged craftsmen to build it now, at least before autumn comes, it is best not to have a big battle, otherwise our archers will have to use a knife to fight with the enemy in hand."
Green's tone was very calm and he paused: "The third thing is about the rectification of the army. I mean, since everyone is gathered here, then we should unite as one heart, strength, disperse, and gather in one place. Now there are three military forces in the city, and coordination between each other is also a problem. Daily exercises, supplies, and barracks and garrisons need to be re-allocated..."
As he said that, Green glanced at Xia Ya.
Xia Ya nodded and immediately understood Green's dilemma.
There are now 20,000 soldiers in the city. Among them, it is really pitiful to say that the old foundation belongs to me. Originally, there were only a few hundred defenders in Denzel. Later, Nene led people to surrender and gave his family two thousand horses and thieves. He temporarily recruited some of the refugees. In order to resist the siege of foreign enemies, the enthusiasm for joining the army was not low, and at least some were added.
But there were many foreign visitors. The Sixth Corps was driven from Nos County by Hasting, with more than 8,000 remaining troops. A remnant of the Seventh Corps ran over from Manninger's butcher knife to the south, with about 4,000 people.
Speaking of which, two-thirds of the nearly 20,000 soldiers under his command are not his own.
Whether it is the Sixth Corps or the Seventh Corps, although they all came to surrender in a hurry, they were still the regular Central Corps of the Empire. In fact, they were not very despised by the country garrison army like themselves. Moreover, in terms of military positions, Xia Ya, the county garrison commander, was just a banner regiment level. However, in the Sixth Seventh Corps that they ran over, there were a lot of flag regiment level officers.
It is not necessarily convincing to listen to Xia Ya's command. However, the Sixth Corps and the Seventh Corps are now on Xia Ya's territory. The entire army's food, drink, defecation and logistics supply are all supported by Xia Ya, so they barely lowered their heads to Xia Ya.
At the beginning, everyone was polite, but over time, the energy gradually recovered on both sides and something happened.
The Sixth and Seventh Corps are both regular central troops of the Empire. The army originally had its own military supplies system. In order not to arouse the disgust of people on both sides, Green did not rashly intervene too deeply. The military supplies were all sent by the current logistics chief Kato, under Xia Ya, to the camps on both sides and handed them over to their military supplies.
But it caused a problem: there are now three military logistics departments with different systems in the city.
The subordinate of Chara was Kato who came out of the Rodria cavalry with Chara to serve as the logistics chief.
There is one more in the Sixth Seventh Corps.
These days, Xia Ya is not in the city. After a long time, both sides have some thoughts. When Xia Ya is here, with his official position and status, both sides can barely obey Xia Ya's words. But as soon as Xia Ya leaves... Green is just a battalion level, and any one of them stands out on both sides is at the flag regiment level.
As a result, the two sides had a few unhappy fuss about supply. With Green's mind, the best equipment was naturally given priority to his cavalry, but both sides were clamoring to replenish supplies.
Even during the noise, the people of the Seventh Corps said some unpleasant words and vaguely said: During the war, the Central Army stationed in the local area has the power to accept local military and government powers! That means a little threatening: I can all of you after I have incorporated you!
After all, the people of the Sixth Corps were Ruer's old subordinates. They had some old friendship with Xia Ya. They had not had much trouble yet, but they were also in a neutral position and did not help each other.
After Xia Ya came back, just before the meeting, Green had already said a few simple words to Xia Ya. At this moment, he deliberately raised it secretly and looked at Xia Ya...
Xia Ya immediately felt a little annoyed!
Damn! These guys are defeated and desperate to join me. I will give you food and drink! I have been raising you for several months, and now I have eaten my fill, and I will just thrust my mouth with me?
With Xia Ya's turtle man who only takes advantage but not suffer losses, he is playing with the turtle man? Not to mention that there is no door, there is no window!!
He glared fiercely, and the officers of the Seventh Corps felt that they were in the wrong. Besides, Lord Xia Ya and his major general were "friends during their lifetime". He was embarrassed to say anything else, and the scene suddenly became a little embarrassed.
Xia Ya's face became very ugly, but she turned her head to look at a guy with a big hook nose among the officers of the Sixth Corps. This guy was Glenshare, a flag officer of the Sixth Corps. The Sixth Corps ran from Nords and came to the city to contact Xia Ya.
Chara looked at Glenshare: "The material logistics must always be unified. What do you mean? Is it the same as the Seventh Corps?"
Glenshare blushed and felt that these people had eaten and drunk for several months. Now that they were doing this, it was really unauthorized. However,......, the people of them were also the Central Army! When they said that the Central Army was incorporated by the local garrison army, no one could afford to lose this person!
Gripping his teeth, he said, "Xia, these tens of thousands of people gathered in the city, and there has never been a conclusion. Now it seems that one must be arranged... If the Odin people come and tens of thousands of people come to meet the enemy, who will be obeyed? Whose order will be obeyed when the troops are mobilized? Otherwise, these people will be in chaos and will be chasing each other. Before the Odin people can kill us, we will be in chaos first..."
Speaking of this, Glenshare felt a sense of silence, and he felt red and could not continue talking.
Xia Ya pondered for a moment, looked at these guys, looked at Green again, and smiled and said, "Okay, I've been busy with other things before. Since both families have these concerns, we might as well solve the problem today."
He snorted: "You are the Central Army, so naturally look down on the local garrison army... I am a rough man and will not speak in a roundabout way. There is only one sentence, what kind of Central Army's arrogance is better not to bring it out in front of me, Xia - are you the Central Army? I am still from the Roman Cavalry!"
The last sentence was said, and the momentum of the guys was also weakened.
That's right, even though everyone is from the Central Army, they are from the ace of Rodria, the Central Army. The Sixth and Seventh Corps are far worse than Rodria.
"I'll tell you clearly when it comes to the deployment. I am the military commander of Moor County, and now I'm temporarily serving as the county magistrate... If I were to be another place, the Central Army had the right to control the place during the war. This is true. But it won't work for me." Xia Ya stood there, looking at these guys coldly, with his eyes as lightning: "Before I came to Moor County, His Majesty the Emperor told me that I would entrust the place of Moor County to me! No one can take it away!"
When the emperor was brought out, everyone could only pinch his nose and remain silent... After all, when Xia Ya was in the imperial capital and Emperor Kangtos was drunk, the promises he made had spread. Everyone knew that this young Lord Xia Ya was the person that His Majesty the Emperor valued training.
"In terms of official positions, everyone is at the same level, but in terms of identity, I have the title of an imperial baron." Xia Ya said lightly: "The territory is mine, the food, grass and weapons are mine. If you are willing to stay here, we will overcome the difficulties together. If you don't want to... I open the door to see off the guests, and I will send food. If you are willing to leave, I will not try to keep them."
Xia Ya was so tough and unconcealedly tough, which made the 7th Corps' provocations a little stunned.
Speaking of this, even if the bottom line is revealed, there are only two choices. Either stay here and listen to Xia Ya's words obediently, or...get out!
As for wanting to seize power by force... To be honest, the people of the Seventh Corps were really unable to bear the blame. Besides, they were not sure.
The sixth Corps has the strongest troops in the city now, which has more than 8,000 soldiers.
"Chaya." Glenshare blushed: "If you let us listen to your orders alone, I have no objection. You also commanded the war on the Albatch Plain. But now it is different. The local army has no such precedent and no system incorporation. Since this is the case, I have an idea..."
After pausing, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Mesta City is still empty now. Why not move our Sixth Corps to Mesta City to help you guard the gateway to the south. If Manninger comes from the south, we can also help you withstand it..."
When Xia Ya heard this, she almost got angry.
OK! The Seventh Corps wants to make me rebel! Your Sixth Corps is not that ruthless, but you want to divide my territory?
Let me give Mesta City to you?!
Eat mine and drink mine, and before leaving, I will ask me to send you a city?
Where is such a good thing in the world?
Help me guard the southern portal to prevent Manninger from calling?
Nonsense! Manninger was in a hurry to fight with the Corsicans, so where did he have the energy to take care of this place?
He said beautifully, but he came to dig out my corner?
Damn it, who is really the one who brings any soldiers! The guys brought out by that fat man Ruer are all more cunning than the other.
Xia Ya's face was full of anger, and even Green's face suddenly turned dark.
But before the two of them could speak, they heard an angry voice from outside the door, shouting loudly: "Bastard! Glenshare, are your head pressed by the wheels? We have eaten and drunk for several months, and still want to steal our territory?"
After saying that, the door was slammed open, and a tall and burly figure rushed in. He walked in a few steps, grabbed Glenshare's chest collar, and picked up Glenshare like a chicken.
The person who came in was Miss Nene!
Nene stared at Glenshare with anger on his face, but instead sneered: "Ha! Want to leave now and leave now? OK! You don't even think about Mesta City! You can go, spit out all the food we have eaten in the past few months! And you Glenshare, your clothes and armor are all moved out of our warehouse in Denzel City, and you took them away!"
After saying that, he reached out and sniffed twice, and Glenshare's top was immediately torn to pieces.
Although Glenshare was also a general in the army, he had no ability to resist in front of Nene. His face suddenly turned red. After struggling for a few times, he quickly ran aside. If he didn't run away, he would be embarrassed by the female monster's clothes stripped naked in public.
As soon as Nene came in, his fierce eyes glared everywhere, and he pressed the hilt of the sword at his waist intentionally or unintentionally. Any generals and officers from the Sixth or Seventh Corps quickly avoided her eyes.
Xia Ya was a little puzzled. She didn't expect Nene to be so prestigious in front of these guys?
It is not surprising that all three parties are trapped in the small town of Denzel. There are so many soldiers in the city who are full and drunk on weekdays. They are all men who are in the army, so they will inevitably have some friction. It is normal for those who are in the army to fight a few occasional fights.
However, among the three people in the city, the group of horse thieves and cavalry belonging to Nene is the most united and fierce. When occasionally fighting, once these horse thieves and cavalry are offended, the other party will rush up and fight without any mercy. Even more, the fierce generals like Miss Nene are in charge. When fighting, who can beat her in the city except Xia Ya?
Speaking of which, a small half of the generals and officers of the Sixth and Seventh Corps in this room have eaten Nene's fists.
Nene's eyes swept across the world, and seeing that no one dared to look at him, he shouted loudly: "You have their own thoughts and only want to protect themselves. Humph, you have to fight for such a little power! Don't talk about conscience, we have to save our lives for several months! But since we want to do such a thing, it is nonsense to talk about conscience to you! But I want to tell you that since you want to stand up, you can fight for power! But don't forget your identity! Central Army? Jokes! Are you the Central Army? How can you not be at your own garrison? Say the Central Army can control the place during wartime? Not bad! There is this! But I want to ask you, there is another one in military law: What is the crime of losing the garrison?!!"
She glared fiercely, and there was a bit of murderous aura in her voice: "The Sixth Corps is located in Nords County! The Seventh Corps is Siltan County! You lost your territory, but you wanted to come to us to "control" us! It's ridiculous that you still dare to call yourself the Central Army? You have become a betrayal dog! You can still say that you are the Central Army now, see! Losing the land, and when the orders above are passed down, what will happen!
I remember that the Seventh Corps seemed to have lost its main force! According to the empire's convention, the main general was killed in battle and the main force was completely destroyed. Then this Corps would probably have to be abolished! It's ridiculous that you dare to say that you are the Central Army now? In a few months, your identity may be worse than ours!"
Her words were so cruel that she didn't even leave any face for anyone. The guys from the Sixth and Seventh Corps in the room were all blushed by her and could not speak.
To be continued...
