046 Shangfeng

"Marshal Fenandi, which legion should be sent to complete this historic expansion this time?" King Charles stood up and continued to ask, "When will the action start and how long will it end?"

"Your Majesty, the staff plan not to use any imperial legion this time." Fenandi continued to lift the baton and point the territory of the Gran Empire: "The three armies of thick soil, floods and winds continue to be stationed on the imperial border for normal defense, and the three armies of hot sun, rainstorms and frosts also continue to repair inland and change their defenses according to the normal planned time."

"Oh? If the main battle legion of the empire does not move, what troops will take to occupy the eighteen princes in the south? Charles heard that the six main battle armies were not involved in this matter, and he didn't know what Fenandi, the old fox of the military department, would play.

"The six main battle corps are the pillars of our Gran Empire. A little action will certainly attract the attention of other countries. What's more, these small countries will not have more than 100,000 troops this time, which is not enough to mobilize the huge imperial corps to labor and hurt people and money in the past. Therefore, the six main battle corps continue to be responsible for the current defense tasks. And we will recruit in China and form a new small corps to send them to the south for training, and turn these 18 vassal states into 13 vassal states by the way!"

"Marshal Fenandi, what is the military headquarters going to form a large-scale regiment to complete this glorious task?" Jody, as the prime minister, stood up. This is the first conscription since King Charles ascended the throne, and he must be safe to look good.

"Oh, Grand Duke Jody, you don't have to be nervous. This time you are not going to fight any war, so you will no longer form a team as powerful as the main battle legions of the six empires. I don't think this domestic conscription needs to reach the size of the main battle legion, that is, 200,000." Fenandi's data have been carefully calculated by the Imperial Staff. For the Gran Empire, whose population base is approaching 10 million, temporary conscription is not a problem.

Prime Minister Jody nodded. During the three years of mourning, the empire was smooth, and now the country is full of food and can fully support these 200,000 medium-sized legions.

"Regarding these 200,000 soldiers, after the war, part of the military department plans to be stationed in the south of the empire and newly expanded to the territory, and the other part will be dispersed to enrich the local security forces. Be sure to control the bad effects caused by this annexation as much as possible!" Fenandi's last words are very powerful. As the marshal of the empire, he will never allow any turmoil within the prosperous empire!

"Very good! When will it start?" King Charles was also excited by Fennandi's plan and rushed into his head like a torrent of blood. He couldn't help standing up and asking, as if he was about to take soldiers to realize his dream and become the first emperor in modern times to open up territory and expand the empire.

"Conscription can start this summer," Fei Nandi said slowly: "New recruits need training, which takes at least three years. The military department can also use this time to collect the situation of the 18 princes in detail. I plan to launch an attack within five years and completely complete these five subordinate countries within seven years. Become Gran's territory!"

"It will take so long?" King Charles's red face suddenly sank with excitement. He looked up at Prime Minister Jody and asked in a low voice, "Prince Jody, does it really take so long to annex several small countries?"

"Yes, your majesty, although this is only a few small countries, we have to take into account the impact of their annexation. However, the whole continent knows that we have annexed the loyal subsidiary countries. Let alone what the subordinate parliaments controlled by other empires think, it has always been Hundreds of neighboring countries and affiliated countries attached to our Gran Empire immediately panicked. I agree with Marshal Fendi's sound plan. In the precious years before the war, we must appease the surrounding subordinate countries and consolidate the status of the Gran Empire on the mainland..." Grand Duke Jodi, the prime minister, was carefully analyzing the impact of the matter, but he kept laughing in his heart. This Fenadi is really slippery, Ming He had to delay six or seven years to do what could be completed in the past year, and by the way, he also made a 200,000 troops for the military. However, now that the imperial treasury is full, and investing in the army is also a business for the country and the people, so Prime Minister Jodi has also contributed to the flames.

Charles heard the prime minister's high opinion and became silent. He was not a complete fool. Naturally, he also knew how much the annexation of several countries would affect the situation on the whole continent.

King Charles's eyes slowly looked at the generals under the stage and slowly selected a person in charge to undertake this achievement. These small countries in the south will win 100%, so this achievement must be enjoyed by people they can trust.

This is the first formal war since Charles ascended the throne. Victory was the first priority for him. The young officers under the stage are Charles's cronies promoted in recent years. When King Charles's eyes passed by him, every young officer was cheered. If he could become the commander of the new army, he would be ready to rise.

"No! No way! No way!" King Charles's eyes were as picky as unruly housewives in the market. He considered all the new forces he had fostered like picking potatoes. Unfortunately, their young advantages could not be equated with victory in King Charles's heart. These newly promoted brigadiers and generals have a frightening title, but they have no combat experience at all. Charles is really worried about letting them do such an important thing.

Among so many people, this Fei Nandi, who is loyal to the empire, is the most reassuring. After all, the old imperial marshal is experienced!

"All right!" Charles King stood up and looked at the ministers under the stage and said, "According to the plan of the military department, 200,000 soldiers will be recruited this year to form a new legion, which will be managed by Marshal Fenandi, assisted by Grand Duke Jodi. At the same time, the imperial intelligence department will cooperate and launch an expansion plan within five years!"

A lonely red envelope lies quietly on the black table. According to the organization's regulations, such highly confidential envelopes must be present at the same time. The four old men are like four stone statues, sitting silently on the four sides of the table. If you look carefully, you will find that although the four old men are still breathing, they don't even shake their white beards.

The silence of assassins has penetrated into their bones. If they don't want to make a sound, then they are almost the quietest creatures in the world.

"This is the secret report from Jinsha No. 4..." The old man sitting on the head finally broke the silence. He reached out and grabbed the red envelope and shook his wrist gently. The whole cover seemed to suddenly turn into a group of frightened butterfrightened butterflies into countless red crumbs gently from the old man's hand. Slip, and the real content has been unfolded in front of everyone.

Although the lights in the room were not bright, the eyes of the old people were like lightning that cut through the darkness, flashing in the dark in an instant.

There is no need to read it in person. The content of the secret newspaper can be seen clearly by four people.

"The Gran Empire is finally going to expand to the south, five affiliated countries, hey... Their appetite is really good..." The chief elder sneered jokingly. The other three elders expressed their contempt for the Gran Empire.

"Ok, according to the rules of Shangfeng, once there is information about there, we will submit it." The figure of the elder holding the secret newspaper blurred a little, and then disappeared from his position as if melting into the darkness, while the other three elders were not surprised at all and continued to lower their eyebrows to make stone statues. However, their slightly wrinkled eyebrows, some stiff corners of mouths and unconsciously clenched fists showed that their hearts were not calm at all. "Shangfeng", the most horrible killer emperor representing the whole dark world, made these senior elders excited even if he just mentioned his name.

As the most mysterious assassin organization on the mainland, although countless people know its existence, no one knows where the headquarters of this mysterious organization is. Even the senior subordinates of the Assassin Organization don't know much about this place.

This is an ordinary small mountain pass. Hundreds of families live sporadically. There is a silent ancient house in the middle of the pass. A huge banyan tree stands upright in the backyard of the ancient house. The lush branches and leaves completely cover the whole backyard, so that people can't peep even if they stand on a nearby mountain. The scene in the courtyard.

A shadow in the corridor was slightly twisted, and the elder holding the secret letter silently appeared from the shadow.

This shaded backyard is the most mysterious headquarters of the mysterious assassin organization, and the real brain "Lord Shangfeng" of the huge killing machine covering almost one-third of the mainland is in this yard.

The elder slowly walked to the thick tree trunk that occupied almost several rooms, gently picked up a small copper hammer hanging on the branch, and carefully knocked on an iron plate embedded in the trunk.

A dragon-like hum slowly rose from the courtyard, and then a voice sounded in the elder's brain.

"What can I do for you?"

"I received a secret report today that the Gran Empire intends to send troops to the south." After saying that, the elder respectfully stuffed the secret newspaper in his hand into a big hole in the tree.

No one knows the specific age of the leader of the assassin organization, but he must have lived in seclusion here for more than hundreds of years. When the existing elders first stepped into this mountain, the mysterious peak was already hidden in this tree.

As legendary elders speculate that this upper peak leader should at least be in the realm of martial arts, or have broken through the highest peak of martial arts into the lower world to become a martial arts master. It is only one step away. Perhaps this upper peak can break through the void and directly enter the legendary last Shinto to become a new generation of martial arts gods.

Unfortunately, this can only be based on everyone's speculation. Even the closest elders around him have never seen his true face. This alleged top assassin on the mainland has been living in a big banyan tree, which has to be said to be a miracle on the mainland.

However, the elders in the assassin organization will not chew their tongues. Only by maintaining a sense of mystery can these unruly assassins dare not neglect them.

After a moment of silence, the mysterious voice sounded again: "Let them be. Those things that do not involve fundamental interests are not worth our energy!"

"Yes!" The gray-haired elder, like an obedient student, bowed solemnly to the big banyan tree.

"Let Jin Shu continue to supervise and teach them a lesson if Glen is too ambitious." The mysterious Shangfeng continued to care about the powerful empire that occupied a quarter of the territory of the mainland. Instead, he looked at Hasting, who was trapped in a corner: "Copy a copy of this secret newspaper for the king of Hasting and ask him to make some preparations!"

"Yes!" The elder answered and turned away.

A nag slowly sounded in the empty yard: "It's been comfortable for too long. Are Hasting's descendants going to be so cowardly for a lifetime..."
