Chapter 590 Placement of prisoners of war on each island
Soon, on September 28, the third year of Tianxuan, the emergency response to the military situation meeting was held. After discussions among all the heroes present, the topics were focused on two aspects.
The first is the placement and deployment of prisoners of war on each island, and the second is the deployment of army soldiers on each island.
In fact, these two issues are one issue, because the placement and deployment of prisoners of war is also based on preparations for placing prisoners of war on the front line of battle.
Xuande said: "My lord, the current prisoners of war still retain the status of warriors, and have the bonus attributes of the warrior profession, but when they were captured, their weapons and equipment were confiscated by us.
Of the millions of prisoners of war, about 300,000 were taken away by the navy and army in advance. In addition, some are currently engaged in water conservancy project construction on various islands. These are also a few points in hand.
However, we also have new prisoners of war captured every day. Therefore, my subordinates suggest that 150,000 prisoners of war should be left on Yi Island, and 40,000 prisoners of war on each of the other eight islands. A total of 500,000 prisoners of war will participate in the war. .
After all, the Isle of Easy bears the brunt, and the lord's hut is also on the Isle of Easy.
As for the specific deployment location of the prisoners of war, it is naturally the place most likely to be logged in by the Mughal Empire invasion fleet.
What do you think? The subordinates feel that it is not necessary to distribute the islands equally, especially the United Islands and Sky Islands, and they can allocate fewer prisoners of war in an appropriate amount. "
Kong Ming waved his goose feather fan and said: "The allocation of prisoners of war is still a troublesome matter.
At present, prisoners of war are mainly gathered in the four southern islands. Whether they take the Ziguang trail or transport them by warships, the transfer of 500,000 people is not a small number after all. "
Sir Mrak also said: "My lords, my lord Xuande, not all of the 150,000 prisoners of war who were going to leave before the navy and army were going to leave on the Isle of Easy. The subordinates feel that it is enough to arrange the prisoners of war to be on the front line of the battlefield nearby, and there is no need to go everywhere. Dispatch.
However, the invasion fleet of the Mughal Empire attacked and landed, and the prisoners of war were on the front line. There must be a regulation. In case the prisoners of war rebel before the battle, it will also have a great impact on our Yizhen Territory Army.
It is definitely impossible to return the original weapons and equipment, but to give nothing is to force the prisoners to rebel before the battle..."
Qu Mao said: "Then simply equip it."
Zhao Pan said: "We can still prepare simple spears or wooden javelins for them."
Qu Mao frowned, thought for a while, and said: "In addition to the long-range troops, fourth-tier fighters of melee troops will lead the third-tier prisoners of war to participate in the battle. Third-tier fighters and prisoners of war below the third-tier fighters should be rationed with spears. Let them participate in the battle on each island. Anti-landing operations.
Not giving equipment at all, that is complete cannon fodder, but it will boost the morale of the Mughal Empire invasion fleet.
According to Sir Mrak's intention, the islands should not be equally distributed, and the army should deploy prisoners of war as soon as possible according to the actual situation.
Zhen Fu followed the deployment of prisoners of war in Yi Island, trying to calm the resistance of the prisoners of war.
In addition, the army will also be deployed, and the cavalry troops are huge, so they will not participate in the defensive battle of Yi Island for the time being.
Zhao Pan said: "My lord, the empty island is just a tiny place, and the cavalry doesn't even have the distance to charge.
The subordinates think that there is no need to keep the army. All the cavalry regiments of the army are concentrated in Jidao. If the enemy dares to land on Jidao, then Beigang Village can be released to them, and then the tens of thousands of cavalry of the cavalry regiment will be wiped out by them. . "
Chafidel said: "The long-range legion should try to deploy to outlying islands..."
Qu Mao said: "At any rate, there are four or five villages and tens of thousands of residents on the empty island, and our horse ranch is located on the empty island. We can't completely ignore it. The troop carriers of the Mughal Empire's invasion fleet may be Loaded with cavalry, they will not care about the pasture planting on our empty island for less than a year."
Kong Ming waved his goose feather fan and said, "My lord, Sky Island is not a big problem. The city wall has been built in the different town of Sky Island, and there are three farmlands in the folding space, as well as the protection of the city wall. With the current strength of Sky Island alone, even if Mo The invasion fleet of the Woer Empire forcibly landed, and with the protection of the city walls of the different towns of the Sky Island, the Sky Island could persist until the end of the war.
And it can also involve at least tens of thousands of enemy troops. As for the pasture problem, it is nothing more than their horses eating some and the soldiers trampling some. As long as the pasture roots are stable, the pasture seeds will grow again next year.
What's more, we have prepared artificial soil and pasture planting on the three primitive islands in Liandao that don't grow vegetation. As long as it rains, the forage seeds may germinate immediately due to Liandao's climate. "
Xinping said: "Lord Kong Ming, it's raining now, but it's not raining heavily."
Qu Mao said to Liu Qianhui: "Liu Qianhui, go out and have a look."
Soon Liu Qianhui came back, and it was already drizzling.
Xuande said: "My lord, because we have the Purple Light Trail, we can deploy moderate troops on Green Island, Bo Island, Gan Island, and Zhong Island. The focus of defense must be concentrated on Ji Island, Outlying Island, and Yi Island. Yi Island is even more important." It's the most important thing."
Qu Maosi thought about it, nodded, and said: "This is also possible, all naval soldiers and prisoners of war are still under centralized custody, and all army prisoners of war are issued with weapons and return to the frontline battlefield.
Army’s fourth-tier fighters and fighters above the fourth-tier fighters are deployed behind the prisoners of war, serving as the second echelon and also guarding against prisoners of war.
The response of the navy is determined by the communication between Shanks and Sylvia, and the deployment of the army is under the unified responsibility of Zhao Pan and Chafidel, and finally report to me.
Please pay attention: The main force of the navy has been harassing the Mughal Empire invasion fleet day and night for 6 full days at sea. The Princess Fleet and Cruise Fleet we stayed in the territory of Yi Town are basically fighting every day, and our navy is also very tired.
Therefore, even if the number of warships left in the Mughal Empire invasion fleet is small, it is possible to break through the defense of the navy and launch a landing operation directly. "
Zhao Pan, Chafidel, Wang Ping, and Sir Mrak said in unison: "My lord, the army is ready!"
Shanks Reid said: "My lord, my subordinate's injuries have healed. The most important thing for the navy is warships. If this is not possible, I will pull up a fleet of hundreds of warships to join the battle.
The subordinates have 9,000 naval soldiers who have been following them, 20,000 soldiers who surrendered in the early days, and 30,000 naval prisoners of war..."
Qu Mao waved his hand to stop, and said: "Shanks, you can form a naval fleet in advance, but the specific combat tasks have to wait for Sylvia to arrange.
After all, other forces will not stop invading our territory just because we are fighting the Mughal Empire. "
Shanks Reid said: "Yes, my lord! The subordinates understand."
