Chapter 569 Chapter 531 Take care!

As a new star in the empire's political arena, General Alpay, one of the three newcomer kings of the empire, has many halo titles: For example, the title of Earl of the Empire, Lieutenant General of the Empire, Commander of the Thunder God's Whip...Of course, among these titles, there is a more or less complicated item: the political enemy of the Tulip family! It is ironic that although many people now know that General Alpay is one of the few strongmen in the empire who dared to wrestle with Duke Tulip, but as Du Wei's political enemy, the 33-year-old Alpay Yi, but it was the first time to meet Du Wei.

This thing is interesting and subtle, isn't it? The first meeting between the two should have been during the war that wiped out the Northwest Army two years earlier.At that time, Alpay was only a division commander of the Royal Guards. But that time, this guy put on airs in front of Du Wei, not only did not go to see Du Wei, but also left without saying goodbye, and finally played a trick of "grabbing credit" with Du Wei and others. Since Du Wei stepped into the political arena step by step, it can be said that Alpay is the only one who has succeeded in making Du Wei suffer a small loss.Prince Chen acquiesced to his robbery that time, and Du Wei and him later wrote letters to attack each other. Prince Chen also obviously silently supported the upstart of the imperial military.

If so, you think that Alpay is a young, arrogant, ignorant guy, then you are wrong! This guy who dared to compete with Du Wei at the beginning surprised Du Wei when he met for the first time! Thirty-three-year-old Alpay, from his appearance, seems to be a few years older than his actual age. If you only look at his appearance, I am afraid that some people will believe that he is 40 years old! More importantly, Du Wei had met his younger sister, the beautiful and charming future princess, Miss Delly.But in terms of appearance, this Alpay obviously did not inherit the family's beauty genes like his sister.

Alpay's facial features were regular—but only straight.It's a long, long way from "handsome".However, he has a strong figure, straight body, broad shoulders, thick and strong fingers, and he looks like a soldier who has been holding a sword all year round. As for his eyes... Du Wei read "calm" from them! This kind of calmness is definitely not pretending, but in the long-term difficult environment, the kind of "not surprised" that has become a habit has been developed! Du Wei has also fully understood this political opponent. A few years ago, when he was young, Alpay did not do well in his family, and life was very difficult, not in the ordinary sense. The kind of rich and wealthy children.

He was also attacked by the hostile forces within the family, and in the end, he suddenly rose to the top because he got the biggest opportunity in his life. Let's put it this way: this General Alpay is a hard-working man.Therefore, in his eyes, it is obvious that he is a little more determined than those children of traditional wealthy families. He is definitely not a arrogant person.Du Wei is sure of this. This time the meeting was held in the Commander's Mansion in the main part of the Kaspersky line of defense. The two giants of the northern army of the empire, General Rostock of the Storm Legion, and General Alpay, the head of the Thor's Whip Legion, read the secret order of the regent that Du Wei brought from the imperial capital.

Du Wei already knew the content of this secret order: it was about the invasion of criminals in the future. All of this, the regent has already confessed to the two northern military commanders whom he relies on first. The content of this document is undoubtedly extremely astonishing!It can be said that it is appalling! As Du Wei can imagine, in this era, human beings are already the only rulers of the mainland, and the Roland Empire has been peaceful for hundreds of years. Although there are occasional local wars, the opponents are only those barbaric alien races in the northwest grassland, or Southeast Asia. Aboriginal people, or internal separatist warlords.

Judging from the degree of harm, those are hard to shake the foundation of the empire... And, most importantly, those enemies, at least, they are also human beings! But now it's different! They were told that soon, a powerful enemy will appear, and the opponent is a foreign race that humans have never known for thousands of years!Real outliers!It's not human... it's... It's a monster! This word should be considered very appropriate. This is a huge psychological gap! These brave imperial soldiers may not be afraid of those grassland cavalry, because after all, their opponents are also human beings.But if you fight against "non-human beings", I am afraid that everyone will have an uncontrollable fear of the unknown.

This kind of mood is like the imaginary alien invasion in Du Wei's previous world. General Rostock looked very ugly, and the old general frowned tightly. It was Alpay's performance that made Du Wei a little impressed: this guy's expression has not changed from the beginning to the end.Still so deserted. "Is this true?" General Rostock still asked such a ridiculous question even though the document had Prince Chen's autograph on it. "It's all true." Du Wei said lightly: "In half a year at most, there will be tens of thousands or even more of these monsters running out of the frozen forest. These will be our enemies... ...enemies of all mankind. Their purpose is not to defeat us, but to exterminate us. This is not a war in the usual sense, generals."

Alpay stood up at this time, took the document from General Rostock, he glanced at it twice, then sent it directly to the flame of the candle, and burned it! "My lord, please go back and tell Your Highness that we have received his order, and we will be fully prepared for battle." Alpay's voice was steady. (This person must be naturally cold-blooded.) Du Wei thought to himself. "Don't worry about the morale of the army." Rostock also expressed his position: "The Storm Legion is the strongest iron wall in the empire. My soldiers will not be timid or chaotic."

"Okay, then I'm relieved." Even if Du Wei's mission is completed, it's time to announce that he has already announced. As for how to rectify the morale of the army and ensure that the news will not cause turmoil after it spreads, this is the job of the two generals. As for Du Wei... Since the regent deliberately does not want Du Wei to intervene in the military affairs, then Du Wei will not intervene here. However, he still handed over a copy of the information he possessed to General Rostock in private.The information about the criminals, the boss Bai Hechou sent him a letter, some descriptions of the criminals' combat effectiveness.

"These monsters are powerful. They are beast-like monsters. Of course, these are not too bad. We have powerful weapons. The only trouble may come from the sky." Du Wei smiled bitterly: "According to reliable sources , they may have a large air force." "So the Northwest Independent Division brought by Andre now will become our air barrier?" Alpay interjected: "Is this an air force built with a lot of money from the empire?" "It's like this." Du Wei glanced at this political opponent: "I hope you can make good use of this air force. I have brought all the relevant information. There are many more combat methods of this air force...Of course Yes, these generals know about Andre, you can communicate with him more. General Andre is an old subordinate of General Rostock, I believe you will be able to cooperate well." "In addition, there is good news that the first batch of students from the Empire's Academy of Magic four years ago are now graduating. Graduation! Of course, in just three or four years, it is impossible for these students to grow into high-level magicians. The best of them have only reached the intermediate level, and most of them are only low-level magicians. But... this is after all A well-established magician team, and different from the magicians sent by the previous magic guild to help in the battle, this group of magic students are all loyal to the empire! They will unconditionally obey the orders of the army commander, which is very convenient to dispatch. This can be regarded as the first time that the army of the empire has a real magical coordinated operation." Du Wei laughed. Rostock was very happy: "This is finally good news. With the help of a magician, it can help a lot." "Those monsters also have races that are good at magic." Du Wei sighed: "His Royal Highness's request is that you control the morale and morale of the army, and this big event will be announced within two months. It's a little unstable, but as long as the army is stable, we don't have to worry about anything. And, when the time comes, the Magic Union, the Knights Association, and the Temple of Light will do their best to help us. After all, this is a war that concerns all mankind. war……" All human beings... When Du Wei said this word, he really had an urge to laugh. Du Wei's task was completed here. The next job belongs to these two generals.After he finished the task, he immediately took people back to the imperial capital. Just as he was about to leave, he couldn't help going up the city wall again, and took a look at the strongest military defense line in the history of the empire... Sturdy city walls, the most powerful war-destructive weapons that humans now have, the most elite main battle army of the Roland Empire, and an air force that spans this era. The tall walls, moats, and so on and so forth... Such a powerful force should be able to stop those criminals! Du Wei took one last look, jumped off the city wall, returned to his carriage, and headed towards the Southern Imperial Capital. At Du Wei's time, his political enemy, General Alpay, appeared on the city wall. The 33-year-old upstart of the imperial military looked coldly at the caravan driving away on the road, His face was indifferent. Then, he glanced at a deputy officer beside him, and suddenly said, "Two days ago, when Duke Tulip first arrived, did General Rostock present him with a set of high-quality and precious armor? And a BMW?" "Yes, my lord... But it seems nothing. General Rostock has always had a good relationship with the Rollins family, and the gift of a suit of armor and a horse seems nothing." "It's really nothing." Alpay shrugged his shoulders, and then said in a flat tone: "Immediately help me draft a secret report, sign my name, and report it directly to His Royal Highness the Regent himself, and report Duke Tulip During the inspection and acceptance process of the Kaspersky Fortress, they neglected their duties and took bribes." "Ah..." The deputy officer was stunned, and after a while, this fellow cautiously whispered: "My lord, a horse and a suit of armor are not considered bribes, are they?" "Write as I said." Alpay said lightly. As he spoke, he leaned on the city wall, looked at the distance of the road, and sighed: "You don't understand. Your Highness has read this secret letter of denunciation. It is impossible to cause any harm to Duke Tulip. I understand, Your Highness." He understands better that even if Duke Tulip knew about this letter, he would just laugh it off. However, this is a signal that I still disagree with Duke Tulip! You don’t understand these things.” The upstart of the empire finally showed an imperceptible wry smile on his indifferent face: "Du Wei and I were not enemies at first, but because the regent wanted us to be enemies, so Du Wei and I became enemies." ... Du Wei didn't return to the imperial capital right away. In fact, after traveling south for a while, he ran to the military base where Andre's Northwest Independent Division was stationed. There, Du Wei secretly met with General Andre. "Now this army is no longer my army." Du Wei said solemnly when facing General Andre in a separate room: "But I am very worried, after all, this is a new type of air force. None of the commanders here has experience in commanding this army! I am very worried that if it is used indiscriminately, it will cause a huge waste of our precious army! It may even cause soldiers to die in vain!" Du Wei looked at General Andre: "Although you are from the Storm Legion, you are an old subordinate of General Rostock, and you are also a rigorous soldier, but General Andre, although you participated in the creation of this army, you did not Really experienced the air combat of this army. So, I wrote this stuff." Du Wei handed General Andre a booklet written by himself, which described Du Wei's own operation of the air force, and some of the roles he thought the air force should play in the war. The summary, of course, also includes the analysis of the only actual combat case where the air force was used in the continental war: the one that wiped out the Northwest Army. "These things are some of my ideas. I can't give them to Rostock, because after all, his qualifications are much higher than mine. If I give them to him, it will make him feel disgusted." Du Wei smiled wryly: "But you didn't Question, my friend, we've worked together in the Northwest for two years, and you know who I am, and I know you." "Although our hot-air balloon airship is very mature, as an air combat force, the hot-air balloon airship is still very fragile. First of all, it is too affected by the climate, and it is not a good weapon for all-weather combat. Second, if the enemy does not have air power It will be a unparalleled weapon, but I want you to understand that our enemies also have air units, and even their air units are more numerous, more flexible, and faster in single combat. They have air-to-air combat Skills. As for our airship, in my opinion, the most suitable combat method is 'air-to-ground'. And you also know that the airship is very fragile. Once the ball of the hot air balloon is damaged by the attack, it will cause the airship to fall. This is in It is a huge weakness in war. Therefore, I think our use of airships should be mainly used to concentrate numbers and bomb the enemy's ground forces. If we encounter a large number of enemy air units, we'd better let the airships Withdraw! Because the airship lacks air-to-air combat effectiveness in the air, and moves relatively slowly, it is easy to become an enemy's target!" General Andre listened to Du Wei's opinion very seriously, and then he asked: "Then, my lord, please forgive me, you have an elite Decepticon Sky Knights under your command! Those sky knights on brooms, More agile in my opinion, and weatherproof, while also having air-to-air combat capabilities. Why don't you put the Decepticon squad..." "Why don't you dedicate the Decepticon squad to the Imperial Army? Do you think I'm too selfish?" Du Wei smiled wryly. Andre didn't speak, he just looked at Du Wei silently. "My friend." Du Wei patted General Andre's shoulder hard: "You don't understand, the Decepticon team is too precious! And its number is too small! Now the entire Tulip family has less than four hundred A knight in the air! Moreover, due to some special reasons that I cannot tell you, that kind of flying broom can no longer be mass-produced! That is to say, this is a strange soldier that cannot be equipped in batches! Since it is a strange soldier, it cannot It should be used in regular combat! Believe me, once the war needs it, I will not hesitate to send you the Decepticon Sky Knights! But it is definitely not the beginning of the war! Do you understand? Because the Decepticons It's too precious, we can't afford to lose it! We have to wait until the war has progressed to a certain stage, we have a full understanding of the enemy, and after we have summed up enough experience in dealing with the enemy, the Decepticon Sky Knight can be a surprise soldier Only by engaging in war can the greatest effect be achieved." As he said that, Du Wei smiled wryly and said, "If I had thousands of Decepticon sky knights, I would have sent them to you. Unfortunately, they are not regular troops! In my imagination, they should belong to special forces planted." Seeing Andre's disappointed expression, Du Wei sighed. Andre was indeed very disappointed, but it was not based on dissatisfaction with Du Wei, but a kind of helplessness. Unlike others, he has been in the Northwest for two years. He is very envious of Du Wei's powerful Decepticon Sky Knights, which come and go without a trace and have super fast mobility!As a general, who wouldn't want his subordinates to have such an unpredictable army? "Okay, you don't have to worry too much." Du Wei said with a smile: "I have a plan now, and if the plan goes well, we will be able to equip a really huge army on a large scale in a few years." The air force! And the combat effectiveness will not be worse than the current combat effectiveness of the Decepticon Sky Knights!" As he said that, Du Wei thought of the griffin boy in the imperial capital... However, Du Wei still gave General Andre a small gift. "Zig, do you know? A student of the Academy of Magic, my earliest student, the captain of the earliest Decepticon squad! He once served as the instructor of the Air Force soldiers established in the early days of your Air Force. I have issued an order Well, in a few days or so, he'll be reporting to you with ten of his men...ten members of the Decepticon squad! With their broomsticks and full gear. This is a mobile unit I'm on loan to you Strength. And... the ten people brought by Chigurh are all the earliest members of the Decepticon team! They are all the most experienced sky knights, and... each of them is a student of the Imperial Academy of Magic , In other words, they are not only sky knights, but also qualified magicians, although they are only low-level magicians. But I think, with the identity of these ten low-level magicians and Decepticon knights, the strength of ten of them , if used properly, it is enough to generate a huge amount of energy!" Du Wei's words made Andre immediately beam with joy: "This is great!" "But I have a request for you, Andrea!" Du Wei changed the subject, and his voice became extremely serious: "I gave you Zig and his ten men, not for you to use as cannon fodder! Not to mention for you to charge into battle! I only allow you Use them in some special tasks, but if there is any risk of meaningless damage, they can refuse your order, do you understand? I give them to you, more meaning, I hope they Stay with you, experience more of this war, accumulate more experience, use their eyes, their ears, and their personal experience to sum up a set of air force operations suitable for us in the war as soon as possible The method and tactics! These ten elites were carefully selected by me, with the best talent, the strongest learning ability, and the best individual combat ability! These elites, I will put them to great use in the future! So if you, Andre, if you dare to treat them as ordinary soldiers and use them to charge frontally, and waste them in vain, if one of them dies, and the death is worthless... Andre , I will definitely settle accounts with you!" We have been dating in Northwest China for more than two years, and we have a good personal relationship. Andre was not at all unhappy with Du Wei's last stern warning. He looked at Du Wei gratefully: "Thank you! I promise, Make good use of the ten sky knights you lent me, God, with the Decepticon sky knights, even the sky scouts used as scouts are much better than those slow and clumsy hot air balloons under my command Already!" "Use it well. It's best not to die among these ten people. These people will be of great use in the future. Especially Zig!" Du Wei sighed. Andre silently glanced at Du Wei, then suddenly he sighed: "Du Wei, actually, I don't think you should stay in the imperial capital." He frowned and said, "It doesn't matter whether it's a hot-air balloon airship or an air knight. These are all things you made. Who else in this world knows how to use these special troops better than you? I don't think the empire should use them. You are thrown in the high command to do those jobs in the rear, you should come to the front and directly command these troops-no one knows better than you." Du Wei smiled strangely: "Andre, there is no need to talk about this matter again. First, from the current point of view, the Regent will not allow me to directly take charge of the army. Second... I know very well that I am not I'm not a real soldier, and I command the army to fight. Many people are more expert than me in this regard. I know my strengths and my weaknesses. I think it will be good for everyone if I stay in the high command for a while." However, next, Du Wei lowered his voice and muttered: "But, in the future, there may be a chance, who knows." When parting, Du Wei gave Andre a strong hug: "My friend, I want to warn you! Because your army is a new type of army, there are only two results waiting for you in the war: either, you use the method Get it right and win a big victory, or, your army is used in the wrong way and there are heavy casualties!! Only these two results, I hope not the second! And, this war will be the worst we have ever seen, I think, From now until the beginning of the war, there will be no chance for the two of us to meet again for a long time... You, take care! I hope you are still alive when we meet next time!"
