【207】Southern War begins
The eunuch and the palace maid arrived soon. This place was in the backyard of the Hua Medical Building. It was temporarily converted into a workshop by Hua Moxi. The yard was very large and twenty-three people stood there and didn't feel crowded.
"See the Queen, I am safe." The palace people saluted and greeted each other.
"You should know that those who are willing to leave have left. Since you don't want to leave, you can only find some work nearby." Hua Moxi said, "Most of you are old people in the palace and have eyesight. Please help review these materials. If there is any special one, please send them to me..."
Hua Moxi started working with people, and more than 20 people shared the burden, and both she and Yuanyuan felt much more relaxed.
Originally, if it was just a list sent, it would not take so much time to review it one by one. It was mainly a problem with the potential list. Some of these materials were not comprehensive enough, and some were even fraudulent. They needed to spend a lot of time investigating the authenticity of the items, and even the Dragon Guard added a lot of work.
Hua Moxi did not treat the Dragon Guard badly, and privately supplied them with a batch of steel knives and telescopes, so that the Dragon Guards could work for her happily, and they wanted to find that kind of thing if they had no work.
In this way, Yan Shang was busy with the government affairs and a series of plans proposed by Hua Moxi. Hua Moxi was busy with "The Courtesan Show" and "The Martial Arts World Warriors". When the banquet was actively working hard to develop upward everywhere, a bad news suddenly came from the southern border. The Yun clan and Nan Yuguo joined forces with two other small countries to start a war against the southern border together!
Yan Shang and Hua Moxi received news that the war was about to begin at the same time. Marshal Si Nanyan and Shen Shuge, the head of the Huayilou South Branch, had communication devices in his hands. When the Yun clan and the Nanyu Kingdom gathered their troops and gradually approached the southern border, the two reported the situation in the southern border one after another.
"The four countries have assembled 300,000 troops, and our southern border army has only more than 100,000 troops. Although there are cities to defend, they are still at a disadvantage." In the imperial study room, all the ministers were recruited to discuss the affairs of the southern border.
"Then you have to increase your troops." A minister suggested.
"It is naturally necessary to increase troops, but how to increase troops? You must know that the far water cannot save the near fire. Even if the number increases, the new recruits are not comparable to veterans. If they really go to the battlefield, it is no different from being sent for free!" The person who spoke was a general, frowning and very distressed.
Yan Shang sat on the dragon throne, his face remained unchanged, but he didn't feel anxious.
After a while of discussion, the ministers saw that the emperor had not expressed his opinion, and gradually stopped talking.
Yan Shang then said: "There is no need to increase troops for the time being. Reconstructing the southern border after the disaster is not suitable for increase troops."
"Then the number of enemies and us is very different. Do you have to rely on the Southern Legion to resist?" A general asked anxiously.
"Maybe other legions can be mobilized to support it. If there is no war in the East, how about mobilizing the East legion?" someone suggested.
Now the Eastern Legion has become the emperor's direct legion, and if it is mobilized, there will be no problem.
Yan Shang also considered this at first. The eastern border was quite peaceful and could mobilize at least 50,000 soldiers. However, after Hua Moxi's proposal, he put this idea aside. "There is no need to mobilize other legions. I have already had a plan to respond to the enemy. The ministers just wait for the good news."
After hearing this, the ministers reacted differently, some thoughtful and some were full of suspicion and obvious disbelief.
There was a general who was upright and irritable. He immediately asked: "I don't know what the emperor has to do to respond to the enemy. Can you tell me in advance? You know, fighting between the two countries is not a joke, you must think carefully!"
"Then I'll send you to the southern border and see it for myself." Yan Shang was not angry either, which surprised the officials who originally thought Yan Shang would be angry.
Yan Shang looked at everyone's reaction and sneered in his heart. If he was really dedicated to the advice of serving the country and the people, how could he care? He just didn't like those old ministers and just took the so-called rules to trouble him.
Because of Hua Moxi's support, the Southern Legion purchased three pieces of equipment.
First, three thousand pieces of special soft armor were distributed to the elite squad of the striker and would be responsible for the most difficult and dangerous tasks. This soft armor satisfies the need for invulnerability to a certain extent, and is particularly lightweight, much more convenient and effective than armor.
The second piece of equipment is the Three Thousand Combo Crossbow, which has a high aiming rate and is convenient to operate. It has extremely low requirements for shooters and is easy to carry. Whether it is fixed-point shooting or mobile target shooting, it has a high accuracy rate, especially suitable for sneak attacks.
The last one is five thousand high-precision grenades, which is one of the most lethal weapons she purchased from the Apocalypse plane. It was also after careful consideration that she spent a lot of money to determine the strategic materials she purchased. Its function is not just to kill the enemy, but to shock the enemy and play a strategic role in intimidation and deterrence, just like nuclear weapons before the Apocalypse.
"If you can use the grenades, try to use as little as possible." Although Hua Moxi decided to let go of her hands and feet, she still retained a little bit of awe of life. After all, in the end-of-life plane, the most she killed was only strange beasts.
"If you don't want to, I won't need it." Yan Shang said seriously. He could probably understand Hua Moxi's thoughts and did not want to persuade her to change or adapt. After all, because one person changes the existence of a world, the pressure is really great.
When Yan Shang really became the emperor of a country, he realized that this pressure did not come from psychology, but from identity and responsibility, a weight that you cannot get rid of since you stand there.
"I'm not that pretentious, I just don't want to abuse it." Hua Moxi retorted, "And if the army relies too much on external objects, although it preserves the vitality in a short period of time, it will not be a blessing for a long time!"
No army can continue to win for a long time, because every victory will breed uncontrollable emotions, especially the victory that is easy to achieve, which will make people ignore the meaning of hard work. Only an army that grows up through countless struggles and struggles is a team that can truly defend the country!
"Don't worry, I understand." Yan Shang also understood this, so he had already explained it.
Yan Shang held Hua Moxi's hand, and said in a relaxed tone: "Do you want to go to the front line to watch the battle?"
"...No, it's all flesh and blood scenes, nothing is good to watch." After watching the battle scenes too much, although she was used to blood and sacrifice, she didn't like it.
Yan Shang thought about it, "Then where do you want to go? Let's go out for a walk?"
Hua Moxi patted Yan Shang with his backhand, "Don't be unemployed, I won't go, you can go, and check the strength of the Fannan Legion."
