Chapter 1761 Even in a Battlefield of a Million, I Can Move Unhindered
In the colonel's office of the garrison, Chu Yunfan was sitting on a chair, holding a transfer order from the Ministry of War. He had just sent off the envoy from the Ministry of War, and his eyes flickered with a sharp light.
You Chuyun's face revealed a somewhat indignant expression as he said, "The Ministry of War is simply muddle-headed. Who has ever heard of letting the third-line troops participate in a clean-up of the demons? Isn't that sending them to their deaths?"
Chu Yunfan's expression was cold because this transfer order was to mobilize the guards of Baotai to participate in the mopping up of the demons.
To prevent the surrounding enemies from becoming stronger, Grand Xia would carry out a large-scale clean-up operation every once in a while. Especially against the demons, which were the greatest enemy of the human race, this was even more important.
Every three years, there would be a spring sweep. A million troops would enter the demon region. Wherever they swept through, all the demon tribes would be uprooted. If they encountered a demon army, they would be wiped out. It was a large operation. Other than a few fixed troops that could not be mobilized to prevent the Hu tribe, Barbarian tribe, and other foreign tribes from causing trouble, almost all the elites of Grand Xia had to be mobilized. From this, it could be seen that Grand Xia was many times stronger than Great Wei.
Back then, Great Wei had no way to deal with the Ultimate West Demon League. They could only take a beating passively. At most, they could only gather the strength of the humans to resist.
However, Grand Xia was completely different. It could retaliate and launch a powerful sweep. An army of a million, especially an army that contained experts at least at the Golden Core Stage, would consume an astronomical amount of resources. Even the Federation, which was extremely rich in resources, could not organize such an army. It was estimated that if they mobilized 100,000 people, the entire Federation would be completely bankrupt.
It was impossible to raise a true dragon in the water. It was also because of this that only Grand Xia had the ability to produce experts. There were almost countless experts supporting the powerful national strength of Grand Xia.
However, what Chu Yunfan saw was naturally different from what ordinary people saw. Grand Xia often mobilized millions of troops to wipe out the demons, but they did not force the demons into a life-and-death struggle. Instead, the purpose of Grand Xia leading their troops into the demon region, other than weakening the strength of the demons, was to train the soldiers.
It wasn't strange for Chu Yunfan to understand this. He was once a general of the Federation, so he understood the thoughts of the higher-ups. To gather such a large army, the amount of resources required was simply astronomical. Under such circumstances, they had to fight steadily and would not advance rashly. They would even retreat after clearing the area. If there was no other strategic purpose, it would be a waste of manpower and money.
However, generally speaking, only the most elite first-line troops would be mobilized to participate in the clean-up work. Even the second-line troops were only auxiliaries. As for the local garrison troops, they would not be mobilized at all.
These troops were more than enough to maintain the peace of one side, but if they joined the battle of a million soldiers, they would be courting death. Even if there were hundreds of thousands of ordinary garrison troops, they would be easily killed by a few Cosmics. They would not be able to fight back. It was because of this that the transfer order from the Ministry of War was clearly strange.
However, Chu Yunfan was not surprised, because even if he did not have conclusive evidence, he could guess that it was mostly related to Li Qianyuan. He had a lot of enemies, but who else could have the power to influence the transfer order of the Ministry of War except Li Qianyuan?
"No, I'm going to write a letter to the Ministry of War and ask them to withdraw this ridiculous transfer order," You Chuyun said gloomily.
After several months, the Flying Celestials promoted him to an elite disciple. His official status was second only to Chu Yunfan's. In terms of the system, even a vice-captain had the right to submit a petition to the Ministry of War.
However, Chu Yunfan waved and said, "It's no use. Just give the order. Even if it's a mountain of blades or a sea of flames, we have to go. Otherwise, we'll be disobeying military orders. Don't you know the consequences of disobeying military orders?"
You Chuyun's expression suddenly froze. Of course, he knew the consequences of disobeying military orders. Chu Yunfan had previously wantonly uprooted the nails of the various large factions in the garrison army, using the reason of disobeying military orders. Disobeying military orders was a capital offense. There was even the so-called Hundred Execution Order in Grand Xia's army. In other words, there were hundreds of rules. As long as one violated them, one would die.
This was Chu Yunfan's method to clean up dissidents, but now it was used by Li Qianyuan. Unless Chu Yunfan could also make a great contribution and be conferred the title of marquis, he would not be able to resist Li Qianyuan's petty tricks.
"Besides, how can we see a rainbow without experiencing the wind and rain? Without experiencing these things, when will the garrison grow into a true elite army? Since we can't avoid it, then let's go," Chu Yunfan said.
Chu Yunfan was not afraid. Although this transfer order was very sudden, with his current strength, he was not afraid of Li Qianyuan's tricks. He could even kill a Cosmic. Even on a battlefield of this level, he could dominate.
However, he was only at the Abstract Interpretation Stage. Such a cultivation was probably too confusing. If an ordinary Cosmic was not careful, they might be instantly killed by him.
"The garrison army has already been reborn. They're not inferior to the first-line elites. What's there to be afraid of?"
You Chuyun suddenly reacted. The current garrison army was completely different from the inside out. Compared to the first-line elites of Grand Xia, they were only stronger and not weaker. historical
There was even a master like Chu Yunfan overseeing the garrison. Even the elite troops would not be so extravagant. This small troop of 500 people had a master comparable to the Cosmos Stage overseeing them.
It was simply a super luxurious configuration.
"That's right. Since they want us to go to the battlefield, there's nothing to be afraid of. I think this is still a place where we can get military merits!" You Chuyun grew excited as he spoke.
"But we still have to be careful. In a battlefield of this level, our priority is to protect ourselves," Chu Yunfan said.
He was not so arrogant as to think that the garrison could do whatever they wanted. In a battle of a million people, Cosmics were usually enough to protect themselves. That was a true war that could destroy a country.
