373: Chapter 36, Alliance eting_1 373: Chapter 36, Alliance eting_1 Dapes, ever since he received the news of reinforcents, Chris the Ninth’s good mood had vanished.
He had thought that with the continual arrival of reinforcents from various countries, the situation would turn around, but unexpectedly, the reinforcent of the Orcs brought everything back to square one.
Not to ntion launching a counterattack against the Orcs, rely defending was exhausting for them.
“Your Majesty, there is currently imnse military pressure on the front line.
Marshal Hodge has already sent two requests for help, and several front-line fortresses have fallen to the enemy.
Though we still hold the core passes, given the current situation, I’m afraid the frontline garrison won’t be able to hold on much longer.
According to reported battle losses from the front line, our forces suffered losses exceeding twenty thousand, and it’s just within half a month.”
Martins said with a bitter face.
Anything else could be exaggerated, but battle losses could not be overstated.
One less soldier ant one less resource distributed.
Nobody dared to joke about the soldier’s ration.
A loss of twenty thousand troops in half a month may not seem like much, but the issue is that the Moxi Duchy is on the defensive.
From the outbreak of the war till now, they have already lost two hundred thousand troops in succession.
Much of this is due to the collapse of the Augustusburg Defense Line, and the rest were progressively accumulated from ongoing battling.
To a country with a population of just over eight million, this accounted for one-fortieth of the total population.
If the enemy weren’t the ferocious Orcs, divergent voices would have arisen internally a long ti ago.
“Where are our allies?”
Chris the Ninth asked with concern.
No one could address the loss at the front line.
The internal warti potential was also almost exhausted.
Even if there were young and strong people available, they would need ti for training!
From serfs to soldiers, the professional transition would not adapt in just a year and a half.
In fact, such change would take even longer.
Who can bla the Moxi Duchy for lacking enough qualified junior military officers?
The fall of the Augustusburg Defense Line resulted not only in the loss of the Duchy’s forces, but also a large number of skilled, battle-experienced officers.
Even the Duchy’s most elite legions have suffered significant damage at the front line and have not been able to recover their strength to date.
“Your Majesty, Alpha Kingdom’s subsequent reinforcents are less than one hundred miles from Dapes and are currently in a state of rest and training.
Crown Prince Caesar promised that as soon as the remaining five legions of the Expeditionary Army assemble, they would rush to the front line.
The reinforcents from the Orton Duchy are currently one hundred and twenty miles from Dapes.
The Departnt of Foreign Affairs has done its communication work and expects them to rush to the front line in about ten days.
The reinforcents from the Fick Duchy and Ruilin Kingdom have entered our country five days ago and are expected to rush to the front line by the end of this month.
The remaining countries have also gradually completed the recruitnt and training of their armies.
They are expected to join the battle on the front lines next month.
The problem is that there was a mishap on the Warhamr Kingdom’s side.
Using the excuse of restraining the Orc Army, they kept all of their promised reinforcents in their border areas.”
Reynato calmly replied.
The results the Departnt of Foreign Affairs delivered could not be said to be perfect, but they could be considered satisfactory.
Allies, those things, being able to co help was already good enough.
Expecting them to be the main force would be sowhat difficult for them.
Even if sending reinforcents, the number of Standing Armies is very low.
Now, in these circumstances, there aren’t many who are confident in the Moxi Duchy.
Each country sent troops to support not only to honor their allied obligations but mostly to buy ti for themselves.
For the smaller countries, they are still hoping that the Moxi Duchy can stall until the Human Alliance joins the battle to avoid the war from spilling into their territory.
Taking the Warhamr Kingdom’s reaction as an example, they seed to be restraining the Orc Army, as if they had accomplished sothing great, but they were actually reinforcing the defense in their border areas.
There’s nothing to criticize about, as seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages were in human nature.
The premise of helping allies was to first maintain oneself.
“Redeploy three new legions in training to reinforce the front line, conscript all graduated mages from the Magic Academy, conscript armies of dostic rcenary groups, company militias…
and other civilian forces.
Tell Marshal Hodge: the ensuing reinforcents will be there soon.
The Duchy has nowhere to retreat, and the Teluns Defense Line must be held at all costs.
The Departnt of Foreign Affairs has to escalate the rcenary tasks previously posted in the rcenary Kingdom to the highest level as an open invitation to all rcenary groups on the Continent to participate in combating the Orcs.
All based on the counts of killing the Orc leaders from the Five Royal Clans, the reward will have no cap.
Silver and gold, beautiful girls and noble ranks, resources for practice, even territories, we can all offer.
You can negotiate and determine the specific standards.
We cannot overlook those assassin organizations lurking in the shadows.
Hang bounties for all significant figures of the Orcs, one kill, one count.
All in all, the Moxi Duchy is now at a crux of survival, starting from now we must commit all we’ve got, using all ans to contend with the Orcs!”
Chris the Ninth finished speaking and sighed deeply.
He had done everything he could do, the rest was to resign himself to fate.
If increasing mobilization intensity and recruiting rcenaries for battle were considered as normal operations, then going to assassin organizations to post tasks would demonstrate scruples scattered to the winds.
Without being cornered, Chris the Ninth would not use such unrefined thods, ruining his own reputation.
…
On the Holy Calendar July 17, 99988, the seventeenth Human Alliance conference kicked off in Lutusiya.
