65. Strategic stalemate

After the end of the war, the government of the Yanhuang tribe began to get busy. After the war, there was too much work to do, shaking hands and resettling the families of the martyrs, distributing pensions to the families of the martyrs, and arranging post-war production.

Sun Tiejian has begun to abide by his duties, he is only a military commander, not the head of the government, he does not interfere in many government affairs, this is also the beginning of decentralization, and military matters alone have made him busy to the point that he is dizzy, after all, the post-war troops must be reorganized, a large number of troops must be rebuilt, and various weapons and equipment must be redistributed and so on, which is enough to keep him busy.

The war on the Winged Girl has ended, and countless civilians of the Heavenly Tiger Empire have to migrate out of the Winged Girl, which is as many as hundreds of millions of people, and the resettlement of these populations has also made Zhang Zeshan bitter, he has complained many times: "Fifth brother, this was originally your job, why do you want to leave it to me to do? This is simply unreasonable." Regarding Zhang Zeshan's complaints, Zhou Tiehu smiled: "I am only the chief of staff of the coalition forces, not the prime minister of the interior, so I will not interfere in the work of the government, it is not within my authority, therefore, thank you, Zeshan." Seeing his hateful smile, Zhang Zeshan really wanted to punch him.

Now that the war on the Winged Girl has ended, the Iron Tiger Department of Zhou will naturally join Sun Tiejian's Department, and the two armies on the internal and external fronts will officially merge into one to form a more powerful force. Sun Tiejian wanted Zhou Tiehu to serve as the supreme commander on the grounds that "the fifth brother is playing very well in the winged actress, and his ability is stronger than mine." So. He is more suitable for the post of commander-in-chief. "That's right. Zhou Tiehu said coldly: "The purpose of the third brother is to be lazy, would I be so stupid to take up that position whose responsibilities are beyond my ability?" Sun Tiejian was naturally helpless. The final result was that Zhou Tiehu assumed the post of chief of the general staff of the army. Personnel from other ministries began to rearrange their posts.

The work within the Yanhuang clan is well arranged, everyone is not a person with good power, it doesn't matter if the power is big or small, and there is absolutely no phenomenon of attacking each other in order to compete for the top position. In the face of the current war situation, the internal forces of the Yanhuang tribe were also integrated. Forty-two elite divisions and two hundred and forty-eight main divisions formed eight clusters, with Guan Tiebing, Kaigula, Black-clothed Shura, Jiang Tielong, Shi Tiesoul, Hu Xuantian, Lu Tieping, and Cao Tiefang serving as commanders-in-chief. Each cluster has five elite divisions and fifty main divisions. It can be regarded as a relatively powerful blow force.

As for the remaining conventional troops, the remnants of the army, which have the equipment of ninety-six front army groups and as many as seven hundred and thirty-seven front army groups, should be able to form a total of eight hundred and thirty-three front army groups. However, at this stage, there are equipment but not enough soldiers, so for the time being, at most, the strength of three hundred front army groups can be formed. The remaining equipment can only be temporarily mothballed, but in the next ten years it should be possible to form 500 front army groups, and within 20 years it should be possible to form 1,000 front army groups. However, at this stage, there are only forty front army groups per cluster.

In terms of troop deployment. The fourth, sixth, seventh, and eighth clusters would have to travel far within the Heavenly Tiger Empire to help the rebellious four kingdoms, without the help of the elite troops of the Yanhuang Clan. I'm afraid that the four kingdoms won't be able to support it for long. The elite troops directly under the Yanhuang clan can't play much role in the space battlefield, but they have an innate advantage in intelligence reconnaissance and assassination of enemy generals, and with them, they are better than tens of millions of male soldiers. And when they go, the regular troops can only stay. Of course, it is impossible for such a large number of troops to be brought into the territory of the Heavenly Tiger Empire, and not all the people in the Heavenly Tiger Empire are dead. Therefore, these four clusters are actually only in name for the time being, and the actual number of troops used in combat is very small.

The remaining four clusters divided the regular forces of the fourth, sixth, seventh, and eighth clusters, and the strength of each cluster reached seventy front army groups. Their strength is already very strong. However, there are many places to defend now. Of course, it is impossible to spit out the two pieces of fat that have been swallowed in the Eastern Theater and the Storm Theater, so it will take at least two clusters of troops to defend these two theaters. The Storm Theater is defended by the First Cluster. As for the Eastern Theater, it was originally the territory of Shi Tie Soul, and Shi Tie Soul was already familiar with it anymore, and as the main general of the defense, he naturally didn't think twice about it.

Although there is no fighting in the Western Theater, let alone the threat of war, the people are uneasy, and in any case, the Western Theater must always leave a part of its troops, and this part of the troops will also serve as the general reserve of the Eastern Theater and the Storm Theater, so the Western Theater will have a surplus of troops in addition to the four major clusters, including two elite divisions, 48 main divisions, and 20 front army groups. To be honest, with such a small number of troops, as the general reserve of the most important defense of the Western Theater and the two theaters, Sun Tiejian, as the commander, felt a heavy pressure.

The remaining Kaigula's second group and the third group of black-clothed Shura, of course, are used for the offensive aspect, advancing from the Eastern Theater and the Storm Theater respectively, causing an offensive trend to the Heavenly Tiger Empire, as for whether to fight or not, big or small, Sun Tiejian did not make more deployments, everything was decided by these two commanders.

No one else has any objection to Sun Tiejian's decision, although some people have a lot of complaints about the need to transfer two clusters of troops to attack under the current situation of tight troops, but Sun Tiejian believes that even if the Yanhuang tribe's troops are tight now, they must maintain the offensive posture, which is not only the need for the development of the war, but also the need for politics. The two clusters maintained an offensive posture, which indirectly played a positive role in the defense of the two major theaters.

Of course, it is only the integration stage now, and all the plans are still only on paper, except for the elite divisions and main divisions of the four clusters of the four kingdoms to reinforce, the other troops are still being formed, so it will take at least one to two years to send troops. The battle of Storm Fortress can be said to have completely disabled the forces of the Yanhuang Clan.

The headquarters of the Yanhuang clan in the East Continent of the New Earth Star. Tempest, ironclad and high mountains and distant mountains see this huge city. I can't help but sigh. And they are all cultivators, and for the rich heaven and earth aura on the New Earth Star, they just feel that it is easy to take a breath, and their strength is growing. These two are both top talents in both military and political affairs, and they naturally understand that Sun Tiejian has summoned them, and this is also related to the future of the two of them and their followers.

In the conference room, Sun Tiejian and Zhou Tiehu sat at the coffee table. Making tea for the two marshals, everyone sat down face to face, they were all old friends, so naturally they didn't need to see each other too much. After three cups of tea in a row, Tempest Iron Armor sighed leisurely: "If there are no troubles, such a cup of tea every day is definitely the most joyful thing in life." ”

Sun Tiejian smiled and said: "Your Excellency the two marshals are the top talents, and when it comes to talent, the two marshals are still far above our brothers, so." I will definitely use the two marshals to death, and I will never let you be so idle. "The mountains and mountains and the wind can only smile bitterly. But it can be regarded as a reassuring pill, at least, the Yanhuang clan will not do anything to unload the mill and kill the donkey.

Sun Tiejian first said to Gao Shan Yuanyue: "Brother Yuanyue, it's no problem to call you like that." "The commander-in-chief is too polite, if you elevate me like this, if I don't know each other, then I really should fight." Takayama Togaku smiled back. "My wife promised to return the equipment of the five hundred front army groups after the war, and added thirty percent of the interest, for a total of six hundred and fifty front army groups. Now, let's start with that. Sun Tiejian didn't say any more nonsense, and went straight to the point.

Gao Shan Yuanyue knew that the Dao play meat was coming, and he smiled without saying a word. Sun Tiejian said: "Brother Yuanyue, we have this batch of equipment, and the quantity is enough, but I don't plan to return it to you for the time being." There are three reasons? First, at the present stage of our army, the troops of all subordinate races have been disabled and have suffered huge losses, and of course we have to help them rebuild these troops, so our army currently needs a large amount of equipment, and if I return all this batch of equipment to you, then our army will not be able to take out equipment to equip other troops, which is absolutely unfavorable for our army. After all, their troops are crippled, and they have to be rebuilt. ”

Gaoshan Yuanyue lent equipment for meritorious, but other affiliated races also paid the lives of countless officers and soldiers, and the merit was greater than that of Gaoshan Yuanyue, and meritorious service was rewarded, so Sun Tiejian was also helpless. "Commander-in-chief, I understand, if the rewards and punishments are uneven, then the Yanhuang clan will no longer be the Yanhuang clan. ”

Sun Tiejian smiled and said, "Thank you Brother Yuanyue for your understanding. As for the second reason, it is also very simple, we are going to fight now, we have to reorganize the army to fight, and if the equipment is returned, then it will only take five to six years for our army to reorganize and develop a decent offensive, and our army cannot afford to wait for such a long time. ”

"The third reason, I'll just say it directly, it shouldn't have been said so directly. If I return all the equipment, I'm afraid that I won't be able to sleep from top to bottom. I don't think that's good for us, and it's not good for you. Although I don't dare to say anything about the emperor's mental tricks and the like, but my internal power must be balanced, your family is dominant, and what it brings to your ministry is not a benefit, but a hidden danger, which is very unfavorable for the future of your department. ”

Sun Tiejian's words were direct enough, so he almost said directly: "If I return all the equipment to you, you will have five hundred front army groups, I am afraid that you will rebel." That's it. However, if you think about it a little deeper, this is not necessarily a good thing for Takayama Togaku. If Gao Shan Yuanyue recovers all the equipment, the strength will reach 500 front army groups, and if it is added to the benefits of 30%, and then the equipment of these 150 front army groups is transferred to the Tempest Iron Armor, then the combined strength of the two of them will be as high as 650 front army groups, such a powerful force, people will definitely be jealous.

Politicians must always consider balancing the power of their subordinates and avoid as much as possible the phenomenon of one dominance, which is not necessarily a blessing for his subordinates, on the contrary, it may be the source of trouble. Even if the Yanhuang clan didn't have the suspicion of the high mountains and distant mountains and the heart of the Tempest Iron Armor, what would the other races think? Or now, they can't do anything about these two people, but what about the future? It must be the affiliated races that unite to make things difficult with the two, and at that time, the two of them will have a hard time.

The two of them naturally understood the mysterious relationship, even if they didn't understand it before, Sun Tiejian naturally understood it. They all deeply believe that ordinary people only see immediate benefits, elites only see medium-term benefits, and geniuses see long-term benefits in the future. If Gao Shan Yuanyue really wants the Yanhuang clan to return all the equipment and add benefits, I believe that within three hundred years, he will definitely be under pressure from all sides, and by then, his ministry will basically be finished.
