The Origin of Arcane

Chapter 163 Three Steps



Neither too large nor too small is appropriate.

Too big, too messy, increased management costs, difficult to unify ideas, and unnecessary.

Too small and no way to brainstorm.

In the first phase of the military advanced training class, it was originally planned that there would only be 50 places, but after counting, there were more than this number just for the designation, and in the end, the enrollment could only be expanded.

One hundred were set, eighty of them were famous from the beginning, and the remaining twenty were rewarded for this army competition, ten for the team competition and ten for the individual competition.

Of course, the quota for the team competition is not that the whole team can join, but the team chooses a member to join.

The first phase of the military advanced training course will last for three months. After three months, the second batch of students will be recruited. The number of students is expected to be expanded to 200 to 300 people.

The positioning of the first few batches is that the officers of the Eternal Night Legion are above the ranks and above, and they will be systematically trained to correct many wild ways that have shown signs.

After the in-service officer training is completed, based on this, the Military Academy Affiliated to the Eternal Night Legion will be formally established to recruit new students and send blood to the Eternal Night Legion.

But that is at least two years later, and it is still in the development plan of the Eternal Night Legion. The specific situation needs to be determined according to the actual development.

After all, two years is quite a long time, at least for the Eternal Night Legion.

Two years ago, who would have thought that the legion formed by young people with only a few thousand people and a bit of nonsense, two years later, it would become the biggest overlord in the Andes Mountains, and the number of people under its control had exceeded fifteen 10,000, is approaching the 200,000 mark, growing rapidly in a snowballing manner.

According to the preliminary estimate of the Eternal Night Legion, after two years, the number of citizens of the Eternal Night Legion will exceed 500,000.

This is not the number that the statisticians of the Eternal Night Legion counted with their fingers and flicked a pen. It is based on the rough statistics of the Andis Mountains by the Eternal Night Legion in the past two years.

For the past two years, the Eternal Night Legion has not only reclaimed wasteland and cultivated land in the ancient river of Jacob, waiting for the Andes mountain people to come to their door.

With a little more money, after opening up the business route led by Man Yu's army, the Eternal Night Army adopted a proactive attitude, established large and small caravans, and began to enter the mountain in groups.

The large caravans are composed of dozens of pack horses, while the small ones are porters composed of three or five people. They enter the mountains in the name of trade, and exchange the materials urgently needed by the mountain people for the leather goods and herbs piled up in the hands of the mountain people. Honey, spider silk, high-quality longbow wood and other mountain specialties have been added.

The price given by the Eternal Night Legion is quite fair. After all, their purpose is not to squeeze the wealth from the mountain people. The three melons and two dates that are picked from them are far inferior to the speed of earning from the Lords and nobles led by the Man Yu Army. quick.

The roots of the Eternal Night Legion are rooted in the Andes Mountains, and the Andes Mountain People are their potential nourishment. Naturally, we should treat them as kindly as possible and build a good reputation among them.

These horse teams and porters who entered the mountain were all carefully selected and trained to a certain extent. They were not only young and strong, but also had sharp ears and eyes, and were able to speak well. After entering the mountain, they were the eyes and mouth of the Eternal Night Army.

Not only through them to understand the situation of the mountain people in the mountains, but also through their mouths, to publicize the policies of the Eternal Night Legion to the mountain people, subtly influence them, and pave the way for the future.

The numbers held by the Eternal Night Legion are also cross-contrasted through their rough statistics, roads traveled, transaction volume, etc. The Andes mountain people they can contact are as many as one million, and some Hidden in the depths of the mountains, there are inaccessible mountain people. It is roughly estimated that the total number of Andes mountain people is between 2 million and 3 million, not much more.

The biggest variable for a group is its speed of development.

In this regard, the Eternal Night Army is definitely a leader. Even Xiao En, the instigator, has no way to estimate his potential.

The Eternal Night Legion has developed to such an extent that it already has its own vitality. Every member of the Eternal Night Legion is a part of him. In order to make this group better, he works hard. Sean often, more The most important thing is to act as the captain and the helmsman.

Even without him, the Eternal Night Legion would still be able to advance at the current pace.

Of course, without Sean, even with the people brought out by him like Marshall, the future achievements of the Eternal Night Army can basically be seen at a glance.

At most, it will take ten or eight years to annex the Walled City Alliance and occupy the entire Andes Mountains, and then plot against the Manyu Army Commander, at most bring a bloody storm to the Asharn Continent and shake the rule of the Byron Alliance status.

It would be wishful thinking to replace the Byron League.

The Byron Alliance has ruled the Arshan Continent for so long, and it has already been said to be deeply entrenched. If the Eternal Night Army rushed out of the Andes Mountain, it would be a naked foreign invader, no different from the Odin orcs.

Once it comes to the racial level, the intensity of resistance will inevitably be raised several levels.

In Xiao En's previous life, the history of those non-Han people in the ruling class is the best lesson. At the most intense time, he would rather hundreds of thousands of people jump off the cliff to die together than accept foreign rule.

For a successful foreign invasion, in addition to its own strong force, it also needs the right time and place, including the weakness of the invaded to a certain extent.

The Byron Alliance is indeed full of problems now, but the main contradiction has not yet reached an irreconcilable level, especially in terms of force. The Byron Alliance is not too weak, but too strong, which has caused internal confrontation and internal friction.

Philip's golden camel heavy cavalry is the best proof. Although he is known as the first heavy cavalry regiment of the Man Yu army, he is at best one of the elite in Broken Blood Castle, and there is still a distance from the most elite one.

The golden camel rode heavily in the middle of the ambush and lost most of its mounts, but still fought tenaciously. The slave rebels paid a heavy price and could only severely injure him instead of eating him in one bite.

Even if they are like this, how powerful are the blood riders who are more elite than them?

Even if the Eternal Night Army is ten times stronger, it will be powerless if they want to conspire with the Byron Alliance. This is the consensus of the Eternal Night Army's senior management.

However, with Sean at the helm, the Eternal Night Legion will sail in that direction, which is really hard to predict.

The third thing is related to the first two. The Eternal Night Legion has developed to the present level, and both internal and external conditions have basically matured—that is, the establishment of the second legion.

There are currently two options for establishing the second legion.

One is to start all over again, transfer the backbone, recruit recruits, and form a brand new army.

The second is to split the entire Eternal Night Legion into two, take out a part of the elite corps to form a new corps, and then recruit recruits from both sides at the same time.

Both methods have their pros and cons.

The advantage of the first method is that the strength of the Eternal Night Legion will not be greatly affected. The disadvantage is that in a short period of time, the new legion has no combat power. It is just a bunch of new recruits, centripetal force and the like, which need to be gathered little by little. .

The second method is different. The Eternal Night Legion is split into two, and the strength of the Eternal Night Legion is affected. However, the new legion has a certain combat effectiveness and cohesion. The Night Legion is like a doppelganger, it is difficult to form its own legion culture.

The senior management of the Eternal Night Legion prefers the second option. What the Eternal Night Legion should pursue now is efficiency, not the so-called individualized legion culture. Similarity means that it will be less difficult to form a group army in the future.

After repeated discussions, the final tone was to adopt the method of dismantling and forming an army, but instead of forming a separate army, the specifications of the Eternal Night Army were raised to become the Eternal Night Army, which was divided into the first main army and the second main army. Make an expansion.

As for the establishment of a new army, it will not be too late to form a new army with them as the team after the military academy is opened.

Due to the complete preparation, the Eternal Night Army, no, it should be changed to the second all-army competition of the Eternal Night Army. It did not disappoint, but it did not have much surprise, and there were no top-notch figures that made people shine.

This is not a bad thing, if such a person really emerges, it means that the Yongye Army has a big problem in the selection of talents, at least there are loopholes.

Judging from the current situation, the Yongye Army has done a good job in this aspect. Those outstanding talents have already been recruited into the Yongye Army. Even if they participate in the whole army competition, it is still within the plan, so it is naturally not a surprise.

Compared with the first all-army competition, this year's all-army competition has improved overall.

Last year, there were quite a few squires who were at the knight level. If they didn't have knight level strength this year, they wouldn't even be qualified to take the stage.

Since the name of the martial arts competition is hung in the whole army, it is natural to put martial arts first. Whether it is a team competition or an individual competition, force is respected first, even if it is tactics, it is also a part of force.

Unremarkable, naturally there is nothing to describe.

After all, this is not a knight novel, there are not so many dark and reverse plots, and dark horses are not so easy to kill.

He is obviously a genius, but he insisted on pretending to be an ordinary person, and he jumped out at the critical moment to pretend to be a slap in the face. Sean lived two lifetimes, but he has never seen such a bloody character with his own eyes.

There are no geniuses, but it is the right way to show your uniqueness from the very beginning, get more resources, accelerate your growth, and keep yourself ahead of your peers forever.

No, it should be what normal people do.

For a legion, they prefer this kind of situation that goes according to plan, and that kind of unplanned things, whether they are surprises or bad news, are not happy.

Andis Tiger Tagore is the only foreign witness of this legion contest.

It is not hard to see from his expression that the strength displayed by the Eternal Night Army really shocked him.

He has always looked down on the Eternal Night Army, because he subconsciously thinks that he is an upstart with no background, even if he is captured, he will rely on conspiracy methods, but judging from the current situation, it is far from the case.

The Eternal Night Legion has not only caught up with the top strength, but even the backbone strength is not bad at all. As long as they are given another three to five years to train a group of great knights and complete the power pyramid, then they will truly stand. Stand firm.

During this period of time, McGee the Skull Crusher accompanied Tagore, having a small drink a day and a big drink every three days, and the relationship grew day by day, regardless of whether it was related to wine or meat. , Occasionally spraying, it is also spraying between acquainted friends, without the original strong malice.

Whenever there is communication, the relationship will ease.

If there is no communication due to suspicion, the relationship between the two parties will always be frozen there.

In this regard, it was Skull Crusher McGee who walked in front of Sean. He used his own clumsy method to tear Tagore apart bit by bit and put it in front of Sean.

In fact, Andis Tiger Tagore is a very pure person. His career as a tiger child had a great influence on him and directly affected the formation of his worldview. He respected the law of the jungle, and the one with the big fist is the king.

It's not that he doesn't have the concept of family affection in his eyes, but his concept of family affection is somewhat different from ordinary people.

In the eyes of ordinary people, human life is paramount. When human life is threatened, other lives such as wild animals can be abandoned.

In the eyes of Andis Tiger Tagore, although the lives of beasts are not above human lives, he really doesn't care much about human lives. In his eyes, people may be just another kind of beast. When there is a conflict between the two sides, who will help? It all depends on your relationship with yourself and your mood.

If it were placed in Sean's previous life, Tagore was a typical disregard for the law, disregard for human life, potential anti-social perverted murderer, prison will be his final destination.

But in the legal desert of the Andes Mountains, there is no problem. Not only is there no problem, there are even many followers, because many mountain people have followed the jungle law of the jungle for many years, but mixed with some human nature. Essentially there is not much difference.

If the Eternal Night Army was a country with sound laws and a stable internal and external environment, Sean would not hesitate to push Tagore to the gallows, even if the opponent was a champion knight.

Sadly, not.

Everyone knows that the current peace of the Yongye Army is temporary, and when they develop to a certain level, even if no one is making trouble for them, they will make trouble for others.

When any force develops to a certain extent, in order to obtain more resources, it is inevitable to expand abroad. This has nothing to do with justice, but a survival instinct.

In modern society, this survival instinct stems from the perception that being backward is about to be beaten.

And this relatively backward feudal society originated from the desire for land. The more land you own, the more wealth you have, the stronger your power will be. This is a truth that even the most ignorant farmers know.

If a military leader is lost, the Byron Alliance will only lose one out of eight, no, it should be one out of seven, but if it is placed on the Yongye Army, it will be wiped out.

The faster and faster the development of forces, the stronger the desire to expand, ancient and modern China and foreign countries alike.

Regardless of defense, if it comes to offense, a person like Andis Tiger Tagore will be an unparalleled sharp blade.

For a person like Tagore, it is not very difficult to capture captives. His bet with Skull Crusher McGee was not purely a strategy, but to a large extent, he really thought so.

But even if this is confirmed, Sean is not going to use this method. There are many ways to show his muscles, why must he choose the most stupid and unreliable one?

The whole army contest is a very good platform, judging from the current situation, the effect is good.

Once Sean decides to win someone over, he won't just use one method like Skull Crusher McGee, but a multi-pronged combination of punches.

For McGee the Skull Crusher, Sean didn’t care about it, and still let him play the emotional card, but he told the winery to blend some high-grade wine and send it to him. It’s not a problem to always steal medical standard alcohol. Although it is brewed with pure grain, if you drink too much, even two champion knights are prone to accidents, and the taste is far from good.

Tagore was also released from prison, but he was accompanied by two false champion knights and a dog around the clock.

Needless to say, these are the three most idle members of the Eternal Night Army - Skull Crusher McGee, Baozi and Patton.

In the territory of the Yongye Army, Sean does not need personal protection. After the champion knight devil training plan is over, Baozi and the head dog Barton have entered a decadent leisure time again. In addition to eating and drinking, they are basking in the sun and maintaining the most basic training, including the head dog. Barton.

Sean is basically insulated from hunting now, and Barton is naturally useless as a hero. His life is too good, and his weight naturally soars. In order to live a few more years, he is working hard to become a weight-loss fitness dog.

After drinking too much, it is not uncommon for the three to fight. This makes McGee the Skull Crusher and Baozi the fastest on the growth path of the champion knight. No matter how good the training is, it is not as good as a champion knight as a sparring partner.

Sean's real killer weapon against Andis Tiger Tagore is to artificially put a halo on him-the halo of loyalty.

Praise him high and let everyone believe in his unparalleled loyalty. After a long time, he himself believed it. In order to maintain this halo, he couldn't help but have concerns when doing things.

And there is no need to worry that Tagore won't fall into the trap. He loves to show off and show off, so he is doomed to have no resistance to this kind of trick.

When he joined the Walled City Alliance, he was touted by Clayton the Scavenger.

There were no surprises or joys in the legion competition, and the formation of the Yongye Army after military training courses and dismantling the army was a matter of course.

After all, so much preparatory work has been done, without external interference, if it still fails, there will be a real problem with the execution ability of the Yongye Army.
