Ma Yue had been planning this all along. If you dare, come and rob our northern and southern divisions. If you dare, I'll turn around and rob you. Cavalry? Do you think you're grassland people who grew up riding donkeys?
In terms of weapons, the enemy's bows and arrows may have a significant advantage. However, war ultimately depends on people. As long as you seize the opportunity, even the most powerful enemy will be vulnerable. Who says cavalry can't fight guerrilla warfare? Tsk!
"If it really doesn't work, our cavalry from the north and south divisions can raid the enemy's rear." Shuichong said.
"That's right! Guerrilla warfare requires flexibility and maneuverability. Tell Huoshi and Feiniu that once the war starts, it will be time to test them." Ma Yue's words had a very clear meaning: actual combat is the most important thing to determine whether you can do it or not.
Whether it's Luo Bai, Shuichong, or Gray Wolf, they're all generals who've been tested in battle. Even though Gray Wolf, who ultimately led the army into battle and failed, was still considered excellent by Ma Yue. Ma Yue seeks talent, and war is the best whetstone for honing it.
The Sea Tribe is now large, with a population of over 15,000. If you can't lead a thousand soldiers into battle, what else can you do?
"Write to Chunwu later and learn more about these outsiders. The more detailed the better."
"I'll arrange it right away." Ma Yue clarified the general direction, and the rest was up to the various leaders.
Haifan City does not need temporary war mobilization. The usual rotation training is management. Whether it is regular soldiers or deputy soldiers, squadron-level or battalion-level, rotation military training is very necessary to maintain the integrity of the team.
The enemy is still fighting fiercely in the core area, there is no need to prepare so early.
Ma Yue felt relieved that Wu Qi and Bai Ying were assisting Shuichong in managing the Haifan City army.
Spring plowing has ended. Those who need to make salt are doing so, those who need to graze are grazing, and those who need to make pottery or forge tools are all doing so. The order in Haifan City is very orderly.
Management needs to be detailed. No matter whether it is the captain, squadron leader, or team leader in the army, or the captain, squadron leader, or team leader in the production team model, as long as there is a clear organizational structure, Haifan City with tens of thousands of people will not be in chaos.
The tribe is big, and Ma Yue doesn't know all the leading cadres. There are too many positions above the team leader. How can the lazy Ma Yue have the patience to get to know every leader, big and small?
"Who is that squadron leader?" The squadron undergoing rotation training in Haifan City is a squadron of deputy soldiers. The current squadron strength of the Hai tribe is fifty people.
"Luo Xiang, it turns out that he was a captain whom I promoted when I was in the Southern Branch. He was very smart and capable, had a good aim with his spear, and had some prestige." Bai Ying was the original leader of the Southern Branch, but was replaced by Huoshi.
I brought a few people back with me. The training of cadres is in stages. We can’t let Ma Yue worry about everything, right?
"Luo Xiang was originally sent here after training. He was purchased. What? You charlatan, is there something wrong with Luo Xiang?" Bai Ying knew that Ma Yue would not ask this for no reason.
"From here to the Southern Branch?" Ma Yue was a little surprised. When the North and South Branches were first established, Ma Yue was very cautious. He certainly wouldn't trust anyone to go to the branch without being identified and trained at headquarters. At least, they needed warriors with some power of faith.
There are a lot of people who have no faith at all, and almost all of them are boiling salt.
What was going on with Luo Xiang? He clearly had no power of faith left. Could the power of faith disappear even if he had it? Ma Yue had never experienced anything like this before.
After all, when the Sea Tribe was small, they could still take almost everything into consideration, but now there are more than 10,000 people in the Sea Tribe.
"Xia Wu, find someone to keep an eye on Luo Xiang. Don't alarm him. Understand?" Ma Yue whispered to Xia Wu, the captain of the guards who had been following him.
"Don't worry!" This wasn't the first time Xia Wu had done this. He was Ma Yue's captain of the imperial guards, similar to the head of the Imperial Guards. The special surveillance of a certain department within the organization was carried out by the imperial guards.
"Bai Ying, take me for a walk again. Point out all the people above the rank of squadron leader so I can see." Ma Yue became alert after hearing such a severe reprimand.
"I understand!" Bai Ying was a little upset. He had finally trained a talent, but it seemed there was a problem.
"Third Priest, you have been in charge of the population. Find out the specific origin of Luo Xiang. Where did you buy him?"
"Okay!" There was a traitor, which was of course a big deal. Although Ma Yue didn't say it so explicitly, the three priests must take it seriously.
Don’t think that the people of the Sea Tribe come from all over the place, including captives, surrendered people, bought people, etc. No matter where you come from, once you come in, you still have to register your basic information.
Ma Yue was referring to the household registration system. Although it wasn't very detailed, it still had a rough record, right?
Written text is really necessary, especially for those involved in management. How can you record if you can't write?
Those who can absorb words faster are basically children, and those who are a little older can't do it. As long as some people can write, it's fine.
It was simple. The Southern Tribe had discovered a bamboo forest. Not only could the bamboo be shaved into simple flying spears and four-meter-long spears, but after splitting, it could also be inscribed with charcoal. Ma Yue wasn't sure if these were bamboo slips, and he wasn't sure how long the charcoal (basically, the thin sticks left after burning charcoal) would last on these slips.
It’s better to record than not to record, right?
No matter how Luo Xiang entered the Sea Tribe, he couldn't have come alone; he must have had companions. Some things weren't so easy to conceal.
Did they find out that the traitors in the salt-boiling team who used birds to deliver messages were from the Thunder God Tribe?
"What's going on? So many?" Ma Yue followed Bai Ying and the three priests around the Sea God City and went to the beach. Except for the two teams that went out hunting, Ma Yue met almost all the cadres of the Sea Tribe above the rank of squadron leader.
There are nine in total.
This was simply unimaginable. Whether it was Luo Bai and Gray Wolf who were here before, or Shuichong, White Eagle, and Wu Qi who were here now, none of them would promote a cadre casually. At the very least, they would only promote someone when Ma Yue was roughly certain that they had the power of faith.
Those without the power of faith were basically working in the salt-making team. After gaining the power of faith, Ma Yue's attention was not as high.
But what about this time? Including Luo Xiang, all ten leaders above the squadron leader level had no Faith Power at all. In other words, these ten people had some Faith Power before, and some were even at the mid-level Fan level or above.
Ma Yue was lazy and hadn't observed the situation in the team carefully for a long time. Who was it that had such great ability to make so many people free themselves from the power of their faith?
Could it be that there is a powerful enemy cultivator hiding in this Haifan City?
"God of war, should I gather the guards now?" Xia Wu seemed to have noticed Ma Yue's nervousness. The guards only had less than thirty people, and they were in Haifan City, so it was impossible for them to all follow Ma Yue around.
"This is our Haifan City, there won't be any chaos." Ma Yue waved his hand.
