Heroes of Silver Moon

"As for the poor military literacy of grassroots officers, the short training time, and the fact that their loyalty cannot be guaranteed, this is how I think about it!"

Simon, Deborah, and Harris are still in the meeting, and the issue they are discussing now is the grassroots officers.

The new army developed too fast. In less than a year, they completed three waves of recruit training and developed a thousand new army soldiers. Therefore, there was a shortage of corresponding grassroots officers, and the problem became increasingly prominent.

There are only 1,000 people in the new army now, and the most important company commanders are the children of retainers like Galken. Although their military literacy may vary, their loyalty can always be guaranteed!

But once the new army is expanded again, and the number increases to 3,000, the official positions of these retainers will definitely continue to rise, and the thirty company commander positions can only be replaced by the platoon leaders below.

Although in the selection of officers before, they had tried their best to choose honest and honest people, but after all, people's hearts are far away, and no one knows whether they are pretending or not.

Therefore, the problem of grassroots officers must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise the entire new army will not be able to operate.

Simon said slowly: "Among us, you and Alyosha have all studied in the military academy, and your military literacy must be fine, but it is estimated that many of the retainers and children of Galken don't even know the words.

Therefore, at the same time as the training of the fourth batch of recruits, you will bring people like Galken, and by the way, platoon leaders and squad leaders who you think are acceptable, to start an officer ethics training.

The content of the training is literacy, arithmetic, and military command that you have learned in the military academy.

Although it's just learning, tell them to be attentive. Before the fourth batch of recruit training ends, I want you to conduct an assessment of the officers participating in this training.

Only those who pass the assessment can get priority promotion, and those who fail can only postpone the promotion until they pass the assessment. "

Harris nodded thoughtfully, thinking that this method should be good. During this training, it happened to be another selection of officers. They must never be promoted.

In the organizational framework of the new army given to them by Simon, the company is a very important combat command unit, and those who have different intentions must not be allowed to steal the authority of their new army.

"Simon, how much money do we have?" Deborah asked with a wrinkled face.

There are so many recruits in the new army, they have to open their mouths to eat. Now he can barely support the money on his side, but once the fourth batch of recruits arrives, their logistics will collapse immediately.

Not to mention that they also raised more than ten thousand barbarian slaves, and the daily consumption of these barbarians was even more exaggerated.

"There are probably two thousand gold coins left! I have calculated that if the soldiers' salaries are not in arrears, they can probably last until the end of January. By then, the income of the paper workshop should have arrived." Although Simon said lightly The cloud is light, but his frown shows his uneasiness.

There is too little money in hand now, if there is any accident, their side will collapse immediately.

"It's too dangerous. If the Royal Chamber of Commerce defaults on purpose or encounters some accidents, we will!" Deborah looked a little anxious.

Simon closed his eyes and thought deeply, then took out a ring and threw it into Deborah's arms.

"This is the king's seal ring. You go to the Alpine Castle again and tell the people staying behind at the Royal Chamber of Commerce that I must get my share of the money before mid-January!" Simon said with a calm face.

With this king's seal ring in front of him, he believed that the Royal Chamber of Commerce would definitely sell his face.

Deborah held the seal ring in her hand respectfully, and said, "Yes, I'll go right away!"

In the Silvermoon Kingdom, apart from the real king, this seal ring is almost equivalent to the highest authority. Anyone in the Silvermoon Kingdom must give it face, especially the Royal Chamber of Commerce that belongs to the royal family.

"Okay, let's stop here this time. Next, I will calm down and refine the materials. You must take good care of the new army and the barbarian slaves. If there is a problem with either of these two parties, our plan to open up the territory will be destroyed. Push back indefinitely!" Simon said with a serious expression.

Deborah and Harris hesitated to talk, they wanted to persuade Simon to stop dreaming and go to repair the castle obediently, wouldn't it? But after a long time of contact, they also know what Simon is like.

Usually lazy and decadent, but when it comes to critical moments, Simon will turn into a madman, no matter who persuades him, it will not work.

Obviously, now Simon believes that this is the critical moment!

 …

In a spacious and dry cave in the endless Gru Mountains, an old and extraordinary goblin sat on a high seat. In front of him was an even older goblin who exuded a savage aura.

The one sitting on the high seat looks like a wise man, and the one standing below looks like a butler.

"Grand Patriarch, this is the number and size of the camps of each tribe in the Gelu Mountain Range this year, as well as their food reserves." The extremely old goblin in the audience respectfully handed over the straw paper.

The goblin with extraordinary bearing in the high position took the straw paper and glanced at it casually, his brows suddenly frowned.

"Too many people, too little food!" The goblin who was called the chief patriarch shook his head.

"Ah!" The old goblin also frowned, and replied helplessly: "The group of Sea Clan people are restless, and the sacrifices made this area have a lot of rainy seasons, not only the prey in the Gru Mountains has become scarce, but even the Gru Mountain The group of human beings outside have not been optimistic about their income in recent years, and this year we only grabbed a little bit of food~www.wuxiaspot.com~ If this continues!"

The chief patriarch also seemed very disturbed after hearing the complaints, his whole face seemed to be full of resentment, and he replied: "We have no control over the affairs of the Sea Clan, we can only try to divert the food crisis as much as possible, and consume more food next year when the human race harvests. population."

That's right, it's not about grabbing more food, but consuming more people.

No matter how much food was grabbed, the barbarians' terrible fertility could not be restrained. Therefore, the best choice was to reduce the excess population of each tribe.

Moreover, what if the robbing of too much food caused the humans near the Gru Mountains to run away? The barbarians themselves do not know how to grow food, and the income from hunting food is not stable. Many tribes are counting on robbing humans every year .

If all human beings ran away, wouldn't these tribes all starve to death?

Human beings grow food every year, and the barbarians will steal part of it every year, but things will never be done. They will leave enough food for human beings to live on, so that human beings can survive here year after year, generation after generation .

This is the strange symbiotic relationship formed between humans and barbarians in the Gru Mountains area over the years.

"Okay!" The old goblin nodded as expected, and was not surprised by the decision of the chief patriarch. How they usually do it!

"By the way, chief patriarch, I heard that around the Gelug Mountain Range, many stone pillars seem to have grown overnight, and many tribes worship them as miracles. What do you think of this?" the old goblin asked.

"Oh, a miracle? Didn't the gods give up on us savages long ago? I guess it's another desperate human who wants to open up a territory at the foot of the Gelug Mountains. Next year's riots should focus on this direction! "The patriarch waved his hand and replied indifferently.
