Lord of Industrialization

The civility and courtesy of the Wesson Army left a deep impression on the locals and promoted economic development.

Many people felt sorry for the departure of the large army.

In a castle on the front line, Archduke Suarez was holding a military meeting.

Archduke Suarez wanted to train his successor, Louis. Now all military information was collected by Louis, who would then organize and report.

Now is the season of wheat harvest. When there is enough food, the war will surely start until there is not enough food.

Louis reported: "Five granaries were burned down by our army last month. They were all newly harvested grains this year. There will be a food shortage in a short time."

The officers in the meeting room all looked bitter. The war was fought for food. You can't pick up weapons on an empty stomach.

Behind the Duke of Alansati opposite was the Kingdom of Gaul. After purchasing the fine seeds and fertilizers from the Principality of Wesson, the Kingdom of Gaul's grain production increased greatly, and there was no problem of food shortage.

Only a few people present knew that the five granaries were deliberately burned.

All the female spies sent by the Kingdom of Gaul were found. In order to make the other side feel that they were useful, Archduke Suarez took out some granaries as sacrifices.

In addition to these five, several other granaries were saved because of the strengthening of defense.

In the current situation, Duke Alansati and the coalition forces of the Kingdom of Gaul have advantages in both army and logistics. According to common sense, they will launch a large-scale attack soon.

Louis began to report the enemy's military situation: "The recent actions of the Gallic army are very strange. Their main forces are dispersed, the camps are strengthened, and a large amount of straw is stockpiled."

There was a lot of discussion in the conference room. Such arrangements and preparations are very abnormal.

In theory, whether it is attacking or defending, the army should be concentrated on the battlefield. There is no reason to disperse the deployment. It is not stationed in the country to reduce logistical pressure.

And prepare straw, what is that for?

Archduke Suarez coughed twice, and when the conference room was quiet, he said: "They are afraid."

The officers were full of questions. Who are they afraid of? It is definitely not themselves.

Someone reacted and asked, "You mean, the Gauls are afraid of the Wessons and Osmagas?"

It is now known to everyone that the Wesson Army and the Osmagas army landed in La Cobriga. Although they have always said that they are going to fight the pagans, who dares to really believe it?

Not only the Gauls, but also many people on the side of Archduke Suarez think that they will join their side.

Archduke Suarez nodded, and then slowly said: "The dark witches of the Wesson Army are extremely powerful. The weapons dropped from the sky can easily blow up the camp."

"So the Gauls dispersed the camp, even if one camp was blown up, it was not that big."

Everyone thought it made sense.

Everyone has studied the battles of the Wesson Army. After the birth of the hot airship, it will appear in every battle and serve as the main force to destroy the camp.

And Frederick, he started riding a winged unicorn to throw things into other people's camps. This is almost a way of fighting engraved in his bones.

So in order to prevent air raids, the Gauls dispersed the camps, and the collected straw could be used to light cigarettes to block the line of sight.

Archduke Suarez glanced at his confidants, signaled with his eyes, and then said very seriously: "When you go back, select a group of young people. There are several requirements."

"First, be loyal, have good character, and don't cause trouble. Otherwise, being killed is your own fault."

Many officers were shocked. Is this to select spies?

The risk of being a spy is high, but the benefits are huge.

Some people can't help but think that it is better to send their own children who have no inheritance rights to fight for wealth.

Archduke Suarez continued to say seriously: "Second, at least know Pulan, preferably German, and be able to communicate with allies. If you have been to the Rhine Alliance, that would be the best."

Many people didn't think about it, thinking that they were going to send spies to the Principality of Wessen?

Before they thought about it, Archduke Suarez said: "Third, understand war, and it is best to be very familiar with the geographical environment of the war zone."

The conference room was quiet at first, and then it became as noisy as a hornet's nest.

"What's going on?"

"Isn't it clear yet? Be an interpreter!"

"That means the Wessen Army will fight with us?"

"If we don't fight, will we follow you to find a mistress?"

"But isn't their commander the son of Prince Moritzmu across the street?"

"So what if he's a son? He's not an heir. His rank seems to be too high to count on one hand."

Under the guidance of several pre-arranged agents, the officers began to believe that the Wessen Army would soon join their side to fight against Duke Alansati and the Kingdom of Gaul.

Archduke Suarez pinched his beard and was very satisfied with the current situation.

He didn't say a word that the Wessen Army would join the battlefield. It was all their own idea.

After the meeting, Archduke Suarez and Luis came to the secret room to discuss the next move.

Archduke Suarez asked, "How are the Kingdoms of Risenburg and Angla?"

He had insufficient troops and needed more allies, so he sent people to ask for help from the Kingdoms of Risenburg and Angla.

The wife of Archduke Suarez is the princess of the Kingdom of Lisenburg, and the occupying forces of the Kingdom of Gaul were driven out of the Kingdom of Lisenburg a few years ago, so they promised to send reinforcements.

The Kingdom of Anglan and the Kingdom of Gaul are across the sea from each other, and they will help whoever is weaker on the continent, so they promised to help Archduke Suarez.

Luis said with some distress: "The reinforcements from the two countries will not arrive until next spring at the earliest."

Grand Duke Suarez had been prepared for this result. It takes a lot of time for the lord to find his vassal and the vassal to find his own vassal.

He envied Frederick very much. There was a war in Hammar this spring, and the army of the Principality of Wessen was ready and set out in one month. This start-up speed is unimaginable in other places.

In order to delay time, he directed today's drama.

Grand Duke Suarez said to his son: "In the next period of time, you should go to La Cobriga City more often, and you can invite officers such as Eugene to visit here."

Luis thought for a while and said: "Eugene may have gone to St. George Fortress with the vanguard, and their chief of staff Erich should be on the seashore."

"According to the division of labor within the Wessen Army, the chief of staff is responsible for making plans."

"We can invite him, the excuse is logistics."

Grand Duke Suarez nodded and agreed with his approach.

This is to be performed for the other side. Anyway, the people came over and said they were talking about logistics. Believe it or not.

Archduke Suarez found that there was another detail to add.

He said: "When you talk to Erich, you have to do one thing, see if you can ask their military to help purchase a batch of our uniforms."

Luis thought about it, slapped his thigh, and said: "Yes, how could I forget this."

The Wesson Army was going to fight the pagans. With the uniforms as a cover, they could make it look like they would change into Archduke Suarez's clothes to fight the Gauls.

Luis remembered another thing and said: "My sister has been buying clothes from the Duchy of Wesson. I think we can make some efforts in this regard."

Archduke Suarez agreed immediately.

His daughter Penelope had an affair with Frederick, and later started a clothing business with the Duchy of Wesson. The nobles of the entire Tarago Kingdom knew about this.

If it was done, people could further believe that the local uniforms that the Wesson Army was going to wear were hidden in the uniforms that Penelope brought back.

The key point is that many of the military uniforms of Archduke Suarez were imported from the Duchy of Wesson.

Thanks to the overall development of the clothing industry, the Duchy of Wesson has made military uniforms suitable for combat a key product in recent years, and many countries and regions have imported them.

In some places, the armies of several lords all wore imitation Wesson military uniforms, which were exactly the same in style, except for the different colors of the fabrics.

Archduke Suarez said: "You should make arrangements, and the news of the military uniforms should also be passed on."

Then he continued: "You should screen the recruits again, and try to learn how the Wesson Army fights."

Military intelligence is made up of countless large and small, true and false intelligence. Sometimes a detail of intelligence can confirm or subvert all other intelligence.

The military uniforms were really shipped, but they were Archduke Suarez's own.

It is true that young people are recruited to serve as translators in the Wesson Army, but their main task is to learn, and Archduke Suarez also wants to form a similar army.

These news, plus some guidance, can help people piece together the intelligence that Archduke Suarez sent translators and prepared military uniforms because the Wesson Army would change their uniforms and join the civil war.

"Oh, right." Archduke Suarez thought of another point, "Remind others that Old Wesson died at the hands of the Gauls."

Louis immediately wrote it down, which solved Frederick's motivation for getting involved in the war.

After a series of combined punches, when Frederick arrived at La Cobriga, he scratched his head, thinking that he had given the order to join the war.
