Chapter 118 118 Military Expansion Plan
Silver Fox Tavern used their actual actions to prove that Tang Mo's money was not wasted. They obtained first-hand information very efficiently, and passed this information to Tang Mo's hands as quickly as possible.

A ranger, galloping on horseback, galloped from Wangcheng to Bunas.Another man with the appearance of a mercenary stayed up for two days without rest, changed to ride two war horses, and managed to find Tang Mo in the chaotic war zone.

But this time, the information sent was not very important, but it proved with actual results that Tang Mo's intelligence network had begun to be initially established.

With such an intelligence network, Tang Mo is no longer blind.He can analyze the information at hand, and then more calmly straighten out the situation he faces.

Of course, Earl Fischero didn't know that Tang Mo already had such a huge intelligence network that didn't match the time of his rise. He just felt that Tang Mo seemed a little more suspicious.

On the other hand, he was indeed persuaded by Tang Mo, because he had to take care of more territories than before, so after Tang Mo left, he began to seriously consider Tang Mo's proposal.

Before Beiling, the land was vast and sparsely populated, and the population was not large, so only 1500 troops were maintained, which was barely enough.

At that time, Earl Fischero did not think that the kingdom did not intend to give him strong support, so he felt that once the war broke out, there would be reinforcements from the Wright Kingdom behind him.

But now this secret tacit understanding seems to have been broken, and the Wright Kingdom did not provide support, so Fishero finally made up his mind and prepared to expand the army.

However, according to Tang Mo's statement, whether it is appropriate for Beiling to support the total strength of 3 legions by expanding 4 legions, Fishelo is a little uncertain about this.

He knows that after taking control of the area south of the Ice Crystal River, the population under his control can be said to have doubled directly. Under such circumstances, it is also very reasonable for him to expand the army.

"He just left?" Not a while after Tang Mo left, Alice walked in, threw the things in her hand on the table with a displeased expression, and asked.

"He's gone, and he really went back to Bunas. His team didn't stop at all, and he just came here temporarily to explain some things to me." Fishelo felt that his treasure had been stolen, and he felt very sad. He replied angrily.

Alice sighed, then adjusted her mood, and said, "The handover over the Ice Crystal River has become a mess... Many noble manors have been emptied, and officials from various towns have also run away."

"How is it? Is there any pressure?" Fischero asked worriedly, "Is it difficult to get such a large piece of land at once?"

"It's a bit difficult. Our manpower is a little small, and we were not ready to accept such a large piece of land before. But we can persist." Alice said a little tiredly: "If he is willing to stay, we It might be a lot easier.”

"That kid refused to help. In fact, we are just a cooperative relationship, not an affiliation relationship, so don't try to get his idea." Fishero reminded a little annoyed: "He even my most trusted officer Abducted away!"

After finishing speaking, he remembered what Tang Mo told him, so he continued, "Alice, have you ever calculated how much money we have left after this war?"

"What are you doing?" Alice frowned, and looked at her father: "What is he going to sell us again?"

"He suggested that I expand the army. In fact, it is impossible to control such a large area of ​​land with only 1500 people." Fischero explained.

Alice nodded and agreed to the plan: "That's true, we should expand some troops, because after this war, we have already torn faces with Susas and the Kingdom of Wright."

"It also includes Cyric!" Fischero reminded: "In fact, we also have an enmity with Cyric. We must share part of the pressure and help that kid..."

"How much does he suggest you expand?" Alice asked Tang Mo's opinion first, and she felt that Tang Mo's opinion should be referred to in this regard.

"4500 people, three legions." Fischero replied.

"Too much!" Alice shook her head and rejected the proposal without even thinking about it: "Father, although we have been rich recently, it is very expensive to raise four legions. We need to find someone who can support these armies." industry, so we have the confidence to expand so many troops!"

"He suggested that I expand at least two legions with 2 people." Fishelo then said the plan that Tang Mo first mentioned.

Alice fell into deep thought, and finally came up with a compromise plan: "Well...Actually, we don't need to expand 3000 people at once, we can expand 1500 people first, and after they start training, we will recruit another 1500 people Enlist in the army."

She was in charge of Northridge's purse strings, and she was adept at it.To increase the total number of troops, on the one hand, the total population must be increased, and on the other hand, the income of the territory must also be increased.

Only enough money and population can support a sufficient size of the army, which is a sustainable virtuous circle.Otherwise, recruiting a large number of soldiers will only become a disaster of digging a hole and burying oneself.

"The person sent by the Kingdom is Boss. The Minister of Construction." Afterwards, Fishero mentioned the information that Tang Mo deliberately showed him.

"Boss? The king sent such a transparent person to us...you know that?" Alice looked at Fishero with some surprise, as if she was trying to remember who her father had acquaintances in the royal city.

Fishero didn't hide anything, and said directly: "The information Tang Mo got... this kid doesn't seem to be as simple as it seems. He has an independent intelligence network... better than mine."

"Then we have chosen the right ally, haven't we?" Alice smiled knowingly, looking at her father, she didn't know if she was showing off her vision or really joking.

Fishero, who was a little helpless with his daughter, sighed and continued to ask his daughter: "Boss is here, what should we ask for?"

Alice, who had just chased Tang Mo all the way back from the Bingjing River, stretched a little tiredly, and asked doubtfully, "Didn't Tang Mo tell you everything?"

"He didn't say anything..." Fishero was taken aback, and then immediately said to Alice.

Alice waved her hand and reminded Fishelo: "The agreement between him and Suzas has been made very clear. We want to expand our military power, and we want the land south of the Ice Crystal River... and a Marquis !"

Hearing what Alice said, Fishelo was taken aback, and immediately shook his head and said, "Are you kidding, Your Majesty will not promote me to be a Marquis... If I become the only Marquis in the kingdom..."

"Father, this is just our price tag. As for how much they give, it depends on their counter-offer." Alice laughed like a blooming flower.

……

In the Kingdom of Wright, in the Royal City, in the manor of the Cyric Consortium, a subordinate lowered his head in frustration and asked, "My lord! Regarding the matter of Bunas..."

Gith waved his hand irritably, and put his original deployment against Bunas on hold: "Let's put it aside! Didn't you see that the things here have already made me burnt out? Damn it! How did I support you guys? A bunch of idiots with no eyesight."

He's really been Alexander lately, because the operation against Northridge, planned by him, seems to have completely failed.

Gith threw a letter from Sussus into the brazier, gritted his teeth and said, "We cannot let the Kingdom of Sussus completely perish, it will be of no benefit to anyone! If the situation becomes serious, we will The prestige within will be affected."

"So, my lord, what are we going to do?" Another subordinate asked, bowing his body and lowering his head.

"Find a way to stop this farce! No matter what conditions North Ridge offers, let the Wright Kingdom hold their noses and admit it first!" Gith coldly ordered: "The Suzas side...is not under our control !"

"But, the person in charge at Suzas..." the subordinate who spoke in front immediately asked.

Gith stared at the flames burning in the brazier, and ordered: "Push the matter to the person in charge of the Susas Kingdom! Anyway, he lost the fight, so someone must take the blame, right?"

"However, my lord, the rumor that North Ridge is equipped with a large number of new weapons has been widely circulated among the defeated soldiers in Susas." The subordinate hurriedly reminded: "We have investigated many of them, and their confessions are quite unanimous."

There is no way to hide this matter now. Thousands of people have seen the new weapons of Beiling, and even General Tuqi was killed in battle. This kind of thing cannot be concealed at all, and there is no need to conceal it at all.

"They all confirmed that at the Sanchakou of North Ridge, there appeared a troop that did not belong to North Ridge. This troop wore a gray-green long coat, armed with new weapons, and used a very powerful cannon." See When Gith didn't speak, the subordinate continued: "On the other hand, the Susas troops who fought against Earl Fisherot also confirmed that the Northridge Legion is equipped with a brand new musket with a rate of fire that is faster than ours. Triple the size of a flintlock!"

"Is there any more?" Keith felt his temples twitching, and his whole body was on the verge of exploding.

He really missed, missed the days when Becky was by his side, at least he could share some pressure and give him some reliable ideas.

Now, Becky is missing, and it has something to do with Northridge's new weapons—Gies feels that all the recent troubles seem to be aimed at him.

The subordinate hurriedly explained: "No, we have no less than ten such confessions. Presumably Suzas will also prepare them. They will blame us, and we will be very disadvantaged by then..."

Keith waved his hands impatiently, preparing to be an ostrich and avoid everything in front of him: "Go down! I know."

"But my lord!" The subordinate was a little anxious.

"Go down!" Keith scolded coldly.

"Yes!" Several subordinates immediately silenced and exited Keith's room.
