Chapter 369: Not Enough Troops
This time, after meeting Lao Yisi, Gu Hang finally got what he wanted.
Although, the star domain envoy generally didn't want Gu Hang to "mess around", she still didn't directly object under Gu Hang's insistence.
And the measures actually taken basically met Gu Hang's requirements.
The six-year war zone tax exemption has been confirmed again. Unless Gu Hang does not do well in these six years and Korojia continues to be in turmoil, showing a situation where taxes cannot be paid after six years, there should be no problem.
And since it is divided into war zones, Gu Hang's position as the war zone commander has also been retained.
However, the Pegasus Fleet was removed from the battle zone. It was expected that they would not be able to stay, and Gu Hang had never thought about it.
However, the 3rd Army Group of the Dragon Eagle Legion will remain in Koroja and be under the command of Gu Hang, who will serve as the theater commander for the next six years.
The Fats family was furious about this.
Of course they were furious.
In the last round of struggle, they won the position of Governor Koroja, and thought that they would be able to turn the tables and become the masters of Pegasus Interest Group. In the past few years, they have indeed achieved the level of competing with the star district government, which is very glorious.
In order to gain a foothold in Koroja, they invested a huge amount of money.
But till now, all the money has been lost.
That would be fine, but now, even the 3rd Legion is gone!
The Dragon Eagle 3rd Legion had always been considered a forbidden fruit by Fats. For many years, they had been bearing all the costs of the legion, from personnel to equipment to logistics.
The situation on Koroja has been going on for a long time. Although the application for the use of the Star Army, that is, the Dragonhawk 3rd Legion, has been repeatedly raised from the Governor of Koroja to the Star Region Government, and the Star Region Government has approved it again and again, Fachs has done a lot of harm in it and was reluctant to send troops, and at the beginning it was only a million troops.
This is not as heroic as when they sent people to Angry Owl Star to clean up the mess for Blackbird Heavy Industry.
It was not until they took control of the post of Governor of Koroja that they devoted themselves to the Astra Militarum in order to consolidate their position.
And now, they have lost that position again.
It would be fine if all the material and political resources invested before were wasted, so they should accept the loss and think of other ways. But the Dragon Eagle Legion never thought of giving up.
It is difficult to say anything before the defense of Mingyan City is over. Now that the city of Fino has been destroyed, the people of the Fachers family obviously want to take action and transfer the Dragon Eagle Legion back.
There were a lot of excuses, such as the lack of defense on the three-star Farchers, the homesickness of the Astra Militarum, and the convenience of supply after returning to the three-star Farchers...
But Gu Hang rejected all these reasons.
After all the questions, the answer is just one: Is this the Astra Militarum or your private army?
Although Fachs has always used this team as a private army, that is obviously not a decent statement.
What's more, Gu Hang has received support from many parties.
The star district government would certainly be happy to suppress the Fats, and the star region government represented by Laois also wanted to punish the Fats - during his tenure as Governor of Koroja, the performance of the Fats family was disastrous.
Of course, the Fats family will not give up so easily.
Some of the situations they described were also realistic. In the Dragon Eagle 3rd Legion, the vast majority of officers and soldiers came from the three-star Fache. They were homesick and could not return for a long time, so their morale was low. At the same time, the Fache family had sufficient ability to influence the situation within the legion. Over time, there would definitely be problems within this legion.
The most direct manifestation is that although they are now under the command of Gu Hang, Hans, the corps commander, has also shown that he obeys the orders of the Star Army Headquarters and the Military Affairs Department, suppresses the emotions within the troops, and continues to execute the orders of Commander-in-Chief Gu, but they have never appeared in the [Soldier Card] in the system.
This also means that the system does not recognize that this is Gu Hang’s army.
However, this does not affect Gu Hang's decision to use them first.
After the city of Fino was destroyed, there was no need to leave so many people on the battlefield outside Mingyan City.
There were 20 million local troops who had been trained by Gu Hang's [Soldier Card] system. After the war, excluding those killed and missing, and excluding the injured and discharged soldiers, there were still 17 million left.
Thadius recruited another three million people from Mingyan City to supplement this force, and fully integrated it, and transferred it back to Mingyan City under the name of "Salvation Army".
Lieutenant General Thadius temporarily took over as the commander-in-chief of the Salvation Army. His first task was to carry out the governor's order to completely clean up the lower nest area and the lower nest area of the entire Mingyan City and establish military control.
In addition, there are more than 30 million local defense forces, and they basically go back to their respective hives. In the many hives on Koroja, there is constant unrest, and troops are urgently needed to suppress it.
The remaining 18 million people of the Dragon Eagle 3rd Legion stayed around the ruins of Fino City. There were also millions of weak demons, cultists without command, and plague zombies.
The task that Gu Hang gave to Lieutenant General Hans was to let them eliminate all the remaining enemies here as soon as possible.
It took Hans three months to complete this task.
After making sure that most of the enemies had been eliminated, he left behind hundreds of thousands of people to monitor and continue clearing the area. The rest of the troops entered Mingyan City and joined the clearing operation of the base area.
There is nothing difficult about the military operation itself.
Gangs, rebels, cults, interest groups... Can these things still form any effective resistance under the iron fist of the army?
But to say it went smoothly, it wasn't that smooth.
The military pressure is still very high.
This pressure does not come from how strong the enemy is or how fierce the resistance is, but from the fact that the security war is extremely disgusting.
According to ancient statistics, Yancheng has a population of four billion.
Most of them live in the lower nest area and the bottom nest area.
The lower nest area is not bad, as it has a certain administrative system. When it comes to the lower nest area, it cannot be said to be completely chaotic and disorderly, but at least the order is not under the control of the government.
Gangs and rebels will disperse after a fight, but after the fight is over and military control is established, things will become troublesome.
Endless vicious crimes, attacks on patrols, sneak attacks at night, secret missions and gatherings...
Including the Star Army and the Salvation Army, there are 40 million troops in Mingyan City, but it still feels not enough.
