Chapter 303 Alternative Thinking
"Earl Hudson, when will the logistics supplies of the army be in place?"

Hudson, who has been in charge of the army's logistics for many days, was questioned at the coalition meeting for the first time because of logistics supplies.

"Sorry, Captain Blake!
The problem of logistics materials depends on many factors.Now I can't give an accurate answer, I can only tell you that the logistics department has done its best.

Even the nearest Fengyue Port is more than [-] miles away from the front line.It would be fine if they were all plains, but now they have entered the mountains.

The bad natural environment, muddy roads, and the destruction of orcs are all important factors affecting logistics transportation.

Especially now that it is raining continuously, it has increased the difficulty of transportation.After the weather improves, the transportation speed should be able to speed up. "

Hudson replied calmly.

Starting from the dramatic change in the terrain, the logistics of the coalition forces began to have problems.Delays in the distribution of strategic materials are common.

What used to be once every half a month has now become once a month.Even the requisition of materials, from the initial door-to-door delivery, to now each army has to send its own people to the transfer station to collect them.

Now that the war has progressed, all that the Alpha Kingdom can mobilize has been mobilized.

However, Hudson was still short of manpower. In order to ensure the timely supply of logistical materials, he even proposed to the Kingdom to outsource part to the caravan.

The chambers of commerce that are now active in the Orc Empire come here with a full load of strategic materials, but they still cannot meet the needs of the frontline.

"Earl Hudson, the transportation of supplies is slow, don't you know what to do?"

Blake asked again.

Although it didn't deliberately target it, the Holy See still suffered a lot when it came to the distribution of logistical supplies.

The logistics transfer station is always relatively far from their location.Every time I receive supplies, I have to run hundreds of miles recently.

Nothing controversial, just pure luck.Who made the Holy See distrust the logistics department and was unwilling to provide the army's offensive route in advance?
Since the Holy See refused to provide it, Hudson could only pretend not to know.

Other troops are usually tens of miles away from the transfer station, and the farthest will not exceed two hundred miles.The only exception is the army of the Holy See, which is often transported over long distances.

In the case of smooth logistics and material support, this distance is nothing.But now the logistics are gradually unable to keep up with the speed of the army, which is a great disadvantage.

Accidents often occur during transportation, and there is no guarantee that all supplies will arrive according to the quota.Some materials have a large loss, and some materials have a small loss, and they are not controllable by manpower.

The nearby troops took away the supplies first.For the Holy See army, it depends on what is left in the warehouse.

Luck eats meat, bad luck eats chaff.

However, the hole was dug by himself. Blakela had no shame in sending the marching route over, so he could only complain about the lack of logistics support.

"Of course there are ways, but the cost is a bit high. Captain Blake, you know that the kingdom is exhausted by the war.

If the Holy See can provide more support, we will immediately increase the number of mercenaries to ensure the supply of materials on the front line.

In fact, the kingdom is well prepared, and the army will not be short of supplies in a short time.

On the orc prairie, we have already stockpiled enough supplies for the army to consume for half a year.

The problem now is that it can't be shipped.Even though you are only a few hundred miles away from the orc prairie, the food we transported will consume [-]% of the consumption of this distance.

This is just the beginning. As the front advances, more and more supplies will be consumed halfway.

The logistics force is short of manpower. In the rear kingdom, men, women and children are already fighting together, so we can't provide more civilians for the front line. Now we can only ask you guys! "

While speaking, Hudson solemnly bowed to everyone.

Deep down, Hudson is conflicted.He not only wants to solve the orc threat once and for all, but also wants to end this endless war as soon as possible.

Persisting until now, the predicament is put on the table, because the kingdom does not want to let go of this opportunity to severely damage or even destroy the orc empire.

The best choice now is to completely drag the Terran Alliance into the water.Unleash the power of the entire human race and wipe the orcs from the continent.

It's a pity that Hudson's tricks are not good enough, and he couldn't fool all the old foxes.The main reason is that the rest of the orc empire is rotten land, which is really unattractive.

Even the relatively fertile orc prairie is unsalable at auction, let alone these rotten lands.

Since occupying the orc prairie and stepping into the northwest region, the desire of the coalition forces to fight has declined sharply.

Unlike the richness of the prairie, the orc tribes in the Northwest are poorer than each other.

Limited by insufficient resources, the local tribes will automatically split when they develop to a certain extent.Most of them exist in the form of small tribes, and there are very few tribes with more than 3000 people.

The enemy is so poor that there is no hope for spoils or anything.If you want to make a fortune now, you can only head-to-head with the main force of the orcs of the five royal families.

On the prairie, the human coalition forces chased the orcs, it was easy.But the situation changed when entering the mountains.

With the natural cover provided by nature, aerial reconnaissance is no longer omnipotent, and the orcs also have the ability to fight back.

Not many spoils were grabbed. On some battlefields, the human coalition forces were ambushed several times by the orcs taking advantage of the terrain, and suffered a lot.

With the battle at this point, the Terran Alliance can declare a complete victory to the outside world.Anyway, the benefits are gone, and the face of the human race has also been recovered.

The current battle, to put it nicely, means that everyone uses troops cautiously;

If it weren't for the large amount of orc cannon fodder in everyone's hands, which has not been consumed, it is estimated that someone has proposed to withdraw the army.

There is no way, everyone promised too much in order to attract the orc Hanhan to join the group.

In addition to Hudson's proposal to support a group of orc races to establish their own country independently, in the process of specific operations, some more operations were added.

If they can't keep their promises and can't openly breach the contract, then they can only be sent to die.

Non-my family, its heart must be different!

For everyone's unscrupulous approach, Hudson decisively chose not to see it, and let everyone toss about it.

"Everyone has seen the contributions of the Alpha Kingdoms, and it has indeed reached its limit to be able to send so much supplies to the front.

Earl Hudson's proposal, I think it can be considered.Either we send more people, or spend money to hire more mercenaries.

Most of the current orc tribes are entrenched in the mountains and forests. They are often not suitable for large armies, but more suitable for mercenaries.

Not only in terms of logistics, more mercenaries can be used; when it comes to the battlefield, we can also introduce mercenaries to participate. "

Marquis Sunil said with a smile.

In this war, although the orcs took the initiative to invade, it was Charles III who pushed for a comprehensive counterattack in the alliance.

As a political commander, Marquis Sunil knew very well that this was the first war launched by the outside world after his boss came to power, and he had to win beautifully.

Judging from the results, it is now possible to choose to end.But from the perspective of the process, it is far from meeting the psychological expectations of the boss.

Fighting all the way, the coalition forces seemed to sweep all over the world, but in fact they didn't even have a significant victory.

The things that everyone can do, naturally cannot highlight the power of the First Kingdom on the mainland.But wanting to win big, the enemy is unwilling to cooperate, and Marquis Sunil is also very helpless.

You can't show off the kingdom's military power, but you can barely make do with showing off the command ability of the kingdom's generals.He managed to snatch this errand from a crowd of competitors, so he couldn't make a trip in vain.

"Marquis Sunil's proposal is very pertinent, fighting in the jungle, mercenaries are professionals.

Especially those mercenary regiments who have been active in the Warcraft Mountains, Elf Forest... and other areas for a long time are the best among them.

In this war, mercenaries also made significant contributions.I think the alliance can raise a sum of money to reward the head of the orc royal family.

For mercenaries who have made great contributions, we can also consider appropriately awarding titles and rewards! "

Hudson immediately chimed in.

No matter what the method is, as long as it can severely damage the orc empire, he will support it.

Marquis Sunil can propose to let mercenaries join the war, so Hudson will naturally confirm the proposal.Anyway, the Alpha Kingdom has no money now, and the money can only be paid by the Human Race Alliance.

It would be easier to reward the title.The land under their feet is a ready-made fiefdom, enough to accommodate countless new nobles.

"Earl Hudson, it's easy for you to say! Using a large number of mercenary regiments, the increase in military expenditure is not a little bit.

What's more, there are good and bad mercenaries, and it's okay to do odd jobs along with them. It's a joke to expect them to be the main force in combat.

The alliance's money is not blown away by strong winds, we can't squander it like this! "

As soon as Captain Blake finished speaking, he felt a murderous aura coming from behind him.

After reacting, he cursed himself for being stupid, and was so busy refuting Hudson that he forgot that there were members of the mercenary guild here.

It's a pity that the words have already been spoken, and it is too late to take them back.As a representative of the Holy See, even if he said something wrong, he is not allowed to apologize on this occasion.

For a mere mercenary guild, its comprehensive strength can only rank in the middle of the ranks among the many major forces of the human race, and it is not worthy of his bow.

"Marquis Sunil and Earl of Hudson's proposal is very good. In the upcoming war, we can fully play the role of mercenaries to a greater extent.

There is no need to worry about financial issues.It is a matter of the righteousness of the human race. I believe that the mercenary regiments all over the mainland will not be so morally inferior that they will take advantage of the situation and rob them at this time.

As long as everyone agrees, our mercenary guild can publish it for free without taking any commission. "

Adolf said seriously.

The reputation of the entire mercenary world was at stake, and his representative had no choice but to stand up.It's a pity that the power of the Holy See is too great, after all, he dare not offend the Holy See too deeply, and the counterattack is seriously insufficient.

"Captain Blake, you are too picky. There are indeed many scum among the mercenaries, but they are only a very small part after all. Most of the mercenary groups are worthy of recognition.

For example, Captain Adolf, when our human race was in crisis, he immediately brought the team over to support, which is enough to prove their enthusiasm.

I think everyone should discuss it as soon as possible, come up with a specific implementation plan, and submit it to the Human Race Council for approval. "

Hudson replied bluntly.

Having turned against the Holy See a long time ago, Hudson would naturally not show mercy if he had the opportunity to attack their reputation.

After the flames came down, the tension between the Holy See and the Mercenary Guild was completely settled.

Maybe they won't turn their faces on the bright side, but secretly holding grudges is indispensable.Maybe at some point, the Holy See will be able to suffer a big loss.

……

"Dear Lord Maxim, this is the reward we have prepared. I don't know when the Sea Clan will be able to contact you?"

The old man Ying asked expectantly.

Seeking help from the Sea Clan, no one knows if it will work, but you have to try.

All the way back, the Human Race coalition forces still pursued closely.Judging by that posture, he was not ready.

According to the news from the Holy See, as long as the human race wins a big battle and satisfies the purpose of the major forces of the human race to show off their force, the coalition forces will return home.

But this kind of unreliable information, the five emperors simply don't believe it.The human race has always been cunning, what if they spend all their money to cooperate with them in a fight, and finally turn their faces and deny them?
Similar things have never happened in history.Rather than entrusting fate to others, it is better to control it yourself.

"Don't worry, Xiaoying. Benlong is doing business, so there is nothing to worry about. Isn't it just contacting the Sea Clan, what a big deal!

You wait here. After I pack up my things, I will take you there to meet the people of the Sea Clan. "

While speaking, I saw the dragon's tail flicking all the treasures in the cave and sending them into the giant mouth.

The head can be broken, the blood can be shed, but the treasure cannot be lost.Every gold coin in the dragon's hands is their life.

No matter where it is placed, the dragon can only feel at ease if it is swallowed into the space in his belly.

"Let's go!"

As soon as he was in the cave, Maxim disliked the old man's flying speed too slowly, grabbed him with one claw, and galloped away.

The free ride is not a good ride.The lightning speed caused the old man Ying to faint in the air.Obviously, flying races cannot afford such super speed.

Flying all the way to the surface of the sea, looking at the rough waves, Maxim stopped suddenly: "Oops! It seems that they were robbed too hard last time, and this group of murlocs didn't wait for the great Lord Maxim to come over. Just move away!"

Hearing Maxim's words, the eagle-eyed old man who just woke up fainted again.

In front of him was a dizzy dragon, but now he was simply stunned by anger.Thinking that he was so wise in his lifetime, he would actually believe the nonsense of a red dragon.

Listening to Maxim boasting that he has friendship with the Sea Clan, he can draw a line from him.I didn't expect that the so-called friendship is to have robbed the other party.
