As soon as Wang Can got off the phone, he wanted to form a concept for all the soldiers.
The military does not respect military force.
Although the military respects the strong, it cannot just be the strong who admire force. Wisdom is also a part of a person's force. Only by respecting the true wise can an army last long.
Wang Can defeated Lu Qi. Although his body had endured a certain load and burden, he did not show any signs of it now. He stared at the soldiers in the army and said: "In the army, the general who is responsible for commanding the army comes out."
After the words fell, a general came out.
This man was as tall as an iron tower, with dark skin and extremely powerful. His name was Kalam, and he was the commander of the army, and he only took orders from Nibru.
Previously, Nibru arranged for Wang Can to take charge of the army. Kalam did not express any objection and just stood quietly in the army. He did not even need to appear in person. Wang Can could stabilize the morale of the army. He obeyed Nibru's orders and followed Wang Can's command.
Yes. If Wang Can can't even convince the lieutenant generals, Kalam will have no need to worry about Wang Can.
Now that Wang Can defeated Lu Qi and subdued the entire army, Lakham naturally would not object.
Wang Can glanced at Kalam, turned his eyes, and then ordered: "Kalam is the chief general. The generals who are one level below Kalam in the army will line up and stand in a row behind Kalam."
As soon as these words came out, three more generals came out.
These three men are Kalam's subordinates. They are all captains of thousands in the army, each commanding a thousand soldiers.
Wang Can's actions surprised Nibru and Haqi.
They didn't understand why Wang Can did this.
But no one interfered.
Wang Can continued: "The lower level generals came out and stood in a row again."
The order was issued, and thirty more generals came out, each standing behind their respective commanders. Wang Can glanced over, counted the number of people who stood up, and saw Lu Qi who stood up, and understood that the last ones who stood up were
It's a centurion.
The three people before him were captains of thousands.
Wang Can said: "With Kalam as the leader, down to the commanders of thousands, centurions, and even lower-level officers, now I am announcing an order. Once on the battlefield, as long as I give the order to charge, the entire army will attack and fight to the death.
No one is allowed to retreat."
"If someone hesitates to move forward, I will not punish the retreating soldiers, nor will I send out the centurions and the thousands who fail to discipline them. I will only send out the kalam, and I will only ask the kalam."
"If one person disobeys orders, Kalam may be punished with ten army sticks. If five people disobey orders, Kalam may be punished with thirty army sticks. If there are large-scale soldiers who disobey orders, Kalam may be punished with thirty sticks."
Behead everywhere."
Wang Can looked at Kalam and said, "Kalam, do you understand?"
"clear!"
Karam said loudly: "The general will definitely restrain the soldiers. There will never be any soldiers who disobey orders and cower. My soldiers in Maiti City are all soldiers who dare to fight and kill."
"No, you don't understand!"
Wang Can shook his head and directly denied it.
Kalam was confused and didn't understand what Wang Can meant by saying this.
Wang Can continued: "If I want to hold you accountable, then you will hold the commander accountable. You are only one person, with only one pair of eyes and two hands. You can't control so many soldiers, and you can't see them all.
.So, you have to delegate power to the centurions and let the centurions below manage it for you."
"You only care about the centurions under your command. If there is a problem at the bottom, you hold the centurions accountable."
"The centurion manages the officials at the next lower level, one level at a time, so that they can be restrained at all levels. If you need to do everything yourself, why do you need so many generals?"
"Now, do you understand?"
Wang Can's eyes flashed, he was teaching management skills, and he wanted to let Kalam understand some truths from it. Kalam, as the commander-in-chief of the army, was quite wise. After listening to Wang Can's words, he suddenly
It feels like an enlightenment.
He manages a large army and often feels inadequate and incompetent.
Something happened to this soldier, and when that soldier encountered a problem, they all came to him. Kalam was busy all day long with various things, but in summary, he didn't seem to do much at the end of the day.
At this moment, Kalam understood.
He doesn't need to be so busy at all, he just needs to let his subordinates do it.
Because this is the responsibility and obligation of subordinates.
At this moment, Kalam bowed sincerely and said: "Kalam, thank you for your advice."
Wang Can nodded, with a smile on his face, and ordered: "Now, everyone disbands and waits for the order to go to war."
"yes!"
Kalam immediately gave the order.
The army disbanded and dispersed, and Nibru and Haji also came over. Nibru said with an admiring look on his face: "What Mr. Wang Can just said can be used in the military and in governing government affairs."
The same goes for above. Mr. Wang Can, now I am even more curious about the ancient Eastern countries. What kind of capital can have people like you?"
Haji smiled and said: "Nibru, you have to thank me."
"I want to thank you!"
At this moment, Nibru felt extremely happy, thanks to Wang Can. Now with Wang Can's help, he finally felt confident, at least there was a glimmer of hope for this battle.
Wang Can said: "City Lord, go back to the City Lord's Mansion now and prepare the information I need."
"Let's go!"
Nibulu took Haji and Wang Can, left the military camp, and went straight back to the city lord's palace.
Upon arriving at the city lord's palace, Nibru immediately prepared the information requested by Wang Can. Whether it was a map or the situation of the generals of the Rhodes City army, everything was placed in front of Wang Can.
There is no paper made in Maiti City, more parchment, but this does not prevent Wang Can from checking the situation. Wang Can is like a sponge, quickly gathering all the information into his mind.
While Wang Can was flipping through the information, Nibru summoned all the blacksmiths again.
When these blacksmiths learned that they had to resist the army of Rhodes City, they all fought bravely. They were not soldiers in the army and could not go to the battlefield, but as long as they could contribute to the city of Maiti, they were extremely excited.
Nibulu came to the study and said, "Mr. Wang Can, the blacksmiths have been summoned."
"good!"
Wang Can stood up and said: "Come on, let's go see the blacksmith now and let them forge new weapons."
"What weapon?" Niburu asked.
Haji followed Nibru, and he was also curious: "Gandila has led his army to the city of Maiti, and there are only five or six days left. Can weapons be forged in such a short period of time?"
"If I say there is no problem, then there is no problem."
Wang Can replied forcefully.
In this regard, he is the absolute authority.
The group of people left the study and soon came to the hall. Wang Can met all the craftsmen present and said straight to the point: "I came to you today to cast some small and practical weapons. As you all know,
The army from Rhodes City is coming. Time is running out now, and we need all your efforts."
"It is our duty to resist the Rhodes army."
"What do we need to do?"
"What weapons are we going to forge?"
…
Each craftsman spoke, and they all looked expectant. For these craftsmen, they had long experienced the sadness of a city being broken. Once the city of Maiti was broken, blood would flow like a river again.
Wang Can took out a piece of parchment, then took a quill, dipped in ink and sketched on the parchment, and quickly drew a triangular cone-shaped iron caltrop, and said: "This is what you want to forge."
arms."
"What is this?" Niburu asked.
The rest of the people also looked at Wang Can, with doubts in their eyes, because they had never seen such a weapon.
Wang Can explained: "This thing is called caltrops. Although it is small, it has enough lethality and is especially suitable for setting up ambush. Just imagine, once the ground is covered with such caltrops, and the army steps on the caltrops, they will definitely be attacked.
It will cause serious damage. Moreover, it is also a powerful weapon to stop the enemy. We will use the caltrops in this battle."
After hearing this, Nibulu thought about it carefully and his eyes became brighter. He was a man who had been on the battlefield and knew the role of caltrops. He said excitedly: "Mr. Wang Can is indeed a great talent. Although this weapon is small, it is
It’s really ingenious and extremely useful.”
Haji also said with emotion: "This weapon can indeed stop the army from attacking."
When the craftsmen heard what Nibru and Haji said, they naturally had no objections.
Wang Can asked: "This iron caltrop requires at least 10,000 pieces. Can you forge it?"
The leader of the craftsmen said: "This weapon is not complicated. We will forge the mold when we go back, and then quickly cast it with iron juice. It can be made quickly. Ten thousand iron caltrops is not a problem, there will even be more."
"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news."
Wang Can waved his hand, and the blacksmith left quickly.
After the blacksmith left, Nibru said: "Mr. Wang, you have looked at the surrounding maps and Gandila's information. What do you plan to do about this battle?"
“We have a general idea, but it’s not perfect yet.”
Wang Can said: "Let me think about it for one more night. Early tomorrow morning, I will come to the city lord's mansion and inform the city lord of the detailed plan. After I tell the city lord the plan, we will prepare to take action."
"Ok, I will wait for you!"
Nibru nodded directly.
It was only a day, he could afford to wait.
Now there are still a few days before Gandila's army reaches Maiti City. As long as Wang Can comes up with a countermeasure before Gandila arrives, there will be no problem.
Wang Can looked at Haji and said, "Brother Haji, let's go."
"good!"
Haji nodded.
Before leaving, Haji cast a reassuring look at Nibru. After all, Wang Can lived opposite Haji. If Wang Can had any ideas, Haji would definitely know them immediately.
Nibru looked at Wang Can's leaving back, clenched his fists, and looked forward to it. He secretly encouraged himself and looked forward to this battle. In the past, he had failed in the battles between Maiti City and Rhodes City.
In this battle, Nibru gained confidence.
Because he has the help of Wang Can and the wisdom of the ancient eastern country, he will definitely win.
"Maiti City will definitely win."
Nibru said solemnly in his heart. (To be continued)
