After a pause, Long Aotian continued: "I naturally have my own ideas when it comes to sending out troops after next spring, because as His Majesty just said, our empire has just finished a large-scale battle. We
There is still a big vacancy in the number of soldiers. We need to replenish the number of soldiers as soon as possible. Then we must start to raise military salaries and some things that will be needed after the battle. After we have completed all preparations, all that is left is to wait for the spring season tomorrow.
At that time, we can use all 100,000 soldiers from our empire's Xuanwu Legion, Suzaku Legion, Azure Dragon Legion and Qilin Legion to go to the White Tiger Army's White Tiger City to assist the White Tiger Legion in its counterattack, and the Sixth Legion can also deploy five soldiers.
Thousands of soldiers went to fight back, so we have almost 650,000 soldiers. Plus some soldiers recruited from local areas, our total will reach about 800,000. With such a force, the entire continent must be dispatched.
You will all be shocked by us, right?"
As he said this, longing appeared in Long Aotian's eyes. At this time, he could already imagine what a spectacular scene it would be if he really followed his own ideas, and how powerful it would be at that time.
At that time, the mainland will be shocked by them, and all the people will tremble for them. At that time, will anyone dare to say that the Shenlong Empire is easy to bully? At that time, will anyone dare to take advantage of the Shenlong Empire?
"But, General Long, have you ever thought about it? If we dispatch so many troops like this, there will be a vacancy in our country. If the other countries take advantage of us to fight with the Valen Empire over there,
What should we do if they take the opportunity to attack us when the country is empty?"
Although Long Aotian's words made everyone here excited, those who were really excited at this time were usually military officers and people from the military department. As for the civilian officials, they were a little worried here.
"Since General Long said such words, then he must have made sufficient plans. Why are you worried about this!"
When he heard someone questioning Long Aotian, one of the officers quickly jumped out and asked loudly.
"Why do you say that? This is the country, not your home. If there is a problem, can you take responsibility? What will you bear?"
??????Gradually, the people in the field were divided into two groups and started arguing here. One side was naturally the soldiers who supported Long Aotian's views, and the other side were the civil servants who were skeptical. Of course, there were also
Some people remain neutral. For example, the four heads of the four major families stood silently aside without expressing any opinions of their own. Ramano above also watched the quarrel below with interest.
For him, this situation has only advantages and no disadvantages. Only with a group of such officials will their country be strong and prosperous, so he has always supported officials to express their own opinions to refute the opinions of others.
But gradually, watching the "war" getting more and more intense below, Ramano couldn't sit still. He knew that if he continued to remain silent like this, the situation would really get worse, and there was a possibility of taking action at any time.
Needless to say, the ones who will suffer when the time comes is definitely the people on Wen Chen's side. The main reason for this is that Long Aotian did not make any remarks or persuasion when the two groups were quarreling. He just stood aside.
He lowered his head and thought about his own things.
"Okay, everyone, stop talking. I believe that since Long Aotian can say such things, he must have his own thoughts. Let Long Aotian explain it to all of us!"
Seeing this situation, Ramano said helplessly, if he didn't interrupt, he couldn't even imagine what would happen here.
After hearing Ramano's words, everyone gradually calmed down. Only then did they discover a problem, that is, it seemed that since the beginning of their fight, Long Aotian, who was the main task, had not said a word.
At this time, everyone focused their eyes on him again.
"Well, it is indeed a bit risky for us to do this, but one thing we should be clear about is that in addition to the six major armies of our empire, there are nearly 800,000 scattered troops. They are a very powerful force. We must
Take advantage of these two months to integrate them. Only in this way can we increase our military strength. After the integration is completed, do you think we will still be afraid of others coming to invade us? They don't have the guts. And one very important point is that you
You know, now that we have destroyed the Japanese and Makilan kingdoms, forget about killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, they no longer dare to underestimate us, they also have to worry about our counterattack, we dispatched 800,000 troops to attack Wa
The coalition forces on the Lun Empire's side are enough to deter them. I think they are all smart people and they don't dare to do such a thing.
Finally, what I want to say is that everything has a risky side. If you don't want to take risks, you won't be able to achieve anything. If you want to shine, you have to take risks. If you want to do it, you don't want to take risks but you have to do it.
If you have such brilliant achievements, then I suggest you go home and dream. Everything must be risked in exchange for it!"
Looking at all the people, Long Aotian said calmly.
As soon as these words came out, the scene immediately calmed down. Everyone was recalling Long Aotian's words ----- If you want to shine, you must take risks. This sentence may seem ordinary but it is full of countless truths.
.
At this time, the heads of the four major families and Ramano nodded secretly after listening to Long Aotian's words. Long Aotian's words reached their hearts. What he said was a fact, but
This fact has always been ignored by everyone. Now bringing it up again is like an enlightenment that brings everyone back to reality. At this time, everyone's eyes when looking at Long Aotian changed again.
Perhaps in their eyes, Long Aotian was just a slightly clever man who was proficient in military tactics and brave. But now they all knew that they underestimated Long Aotian. Long Aotian was absolutely
He is a brave and resourceful person, and he definitely thinks about more things than they think, which can be seen from this matter alone.
"Aotian is right, I think we should do this!"
After a short silence, Ramano said softly, as if he was speaking to himself. At this time, his heart was actually already surging with passion, but he was just suppressing it. He saw the Shenlong Empire after the beginning of spring.
The scene of the Swordsman Continent, the scene when he saw the 800,000-strong army breaking through the Valen Empire. These were all his wishes, and now he finally had a chance to come true, and this opportunity turned out to be the young dragon in front of him.
Aotian is the person he is suspicious of. This makes him feel even more complicated. It seems that he is still wrong. From what Long Aotian said just now, he can feel that Long Aotian does not have any dissent at all.
It's all just my own random thoughts, but even so, I still have to do it according to my own plan. Since it is a good piece of jade, it needs to be crafted carefully.
"Do you have any comments?"
Looking at everyone, Ramano asked calmly. At this time, he had already recovered his mood.
After hearing Long Aotian's explanation and Ramano's words, everyone naturally agreed without any objections. Seeing this situation, Long Aotian and Ramano were secretly happy in their hearts.
"Okay, then this matter will be handed over to the military department. You can draw up a plan and give it to me. I will give you five days. In addition, the Minister of Finance will assist in the completion of this plan. This will inevitably cost money.
You are responsible for paying for it!”
After seeing this situation, Ramano made a final conclusion. Fortunately, the Shenlong Empire has been cultivating its body and mind for a hundred years, so it has accumulated a lot of wealth, which can be put to use now, otherwise
With the wars going on like they have this year, the country's finances will definitely not be able to support it.
"Let me announce something next!"
After handling these matters, Ramano said loudly.
After hearing his words, everyone became quiet. They knew what was about to be announced, because the main thing today was this one. No one had expected the incident just now.
Then the next thing is something that everyone can be sure of. That is the reward for Long Aotian.
"I won't go into details about Long Aotian's achievements and contributions. You should all know about it, right? Everyone knows how much he has done for our empire. We are very grateful to him after returning victorious this time.
The reward has always been a problem, but yesterday I finally made a decision. Let me announce it now. The first step is to appoint Long Aotian as the top officer of our royal army, and grant him the title of General Longhu! He will be named an earl and rewarded with a mansion.
A grant of 50,000 gold coins! Part-time deputy commander of the Xuanwu Legion stationed in the imperial capital! Do you have any questions?"
After saying these words, Ramano asked everyone.
After hearing Ramano's words, everyone was secretly surprised. It was certainly not surprising that Long Aotian could be promoted, but such a promotion surprised everyone. Such a promotion
The job greatly exceeded everyone's expectations and gave them a surprise.
