Chapter 594 Overview of the Rakshasa Barbarian Army (1)
The Earl of Tartar seemed displeased and helpless in response to the two men's inquiries, so he did not explain the matter, but simply explained:
"I am a noble after all. Even if I am captured by you, you should treat me with the etiquette of a noble, not like this!!"
As soon as these words came out, the displeased officer immediately slapped the table and stood up. Instead of reprimanding the Tatar Earl, he complained to the officer who pulled him in:
"Look, this guy is a die-hard. What do you want to say? When he can't bear the punishment and wants to die, he will naturally explain it clearly and ask for a favor. Why are you wasting your time with him now??"
Apparently, the officer was impatient with the Tartar count.
The other officer thought for a moment, nodded in agreement, and then stood up.
"You're right, let's go!"
With that said, everyone in the interrogation room turned around again and prepared to leave!
"Wait, wait, wait," this time, the Tatar Earl panicked.
"Guys, wait a minute, you let me go, but you ask? You don't ask anything, how do I know what to say??"
As soon as these words came out, the interrogators stopped again, and then one of the officers looked at him solemnly.
"Are you sure you will answer everything we ask?"
"You have to think clearly, we are very particular about repeating it again and again and again, and not again and again. If you keep talking nonsense, we will leave directly!"
The earl nodded wildly, and after watching the two of them sit down again, the earl just complained.
"I said I will explain, and I think you really don't respect me as a noble. You even called me by the wrong name. How can I explain??"
"You!" Another nonsense word. The displeased officer jumped up, but was held back by another officer.
"Since you said that, I guess there are still some omissions in our information, so let's start with your name."
After this officer persuaded the other officer, he said solemnly:
"your name?"
Count Tartar: "My name is Alexander, Charles!"
The two of them frowned when they heard this: "What's wrong, isn't it right? We called you Chaersi, didn't we insult you?"
The Tatar Earl shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, I mean you should be called Alexander, not Charles because Charles is my last name!"
The two people who said this were stunned for a moment. Why is this person's name so weird? There is no name after the surname.
In response to this, the translator on the side saw that he was useless, but now he suddenly felt that his knowledge was very profound, and said quickly:
"Two captains, this is roughly the name of this Rakshasa Man. His name is indeed Alexander!!"
These words left the two of them speechless, and then an officer waved his hand.
"Okay, okay, if you're stressed out, you'll be stressed out. It's such a weird name, even weirder than calling Goudan!!"
After muttering a few words and complaining, he no longer struggled with the matter: "Okay, it's a lot of pressure. As the earl and governor of the Great American Empire, why don't you tell me about your military strength first?"
Alexander nodded when he heard this and said: "Our Great American Empire is very powerful, but I really don't know how powerful it is. I can only say that the power of our empire has exceeded your imagination! "
Then, with the cooperation of Alexander, the basic situation of the Great American Empire's army slowly unfolded towards the Han army.
According to Alexander's explanation, he didn't know much about the strength of the imperial army.
Because there are thirteen governors in their empire, of which eleven are governors held by dukes and marquises, but there are only two governors who hold the position of earl, and one of them is him.
As governors of the empire, they are theoretically loyal to the king, so they can only know a little bit about each other. Unless they are very close to each other, they will not know the situation in the country at all.
Just like him, although he was the governor of the empire, his status as a count forced him to come to the open territory in the east. The long distance made his communication with the empire not very smooth.
Therefore, as far as he is concerned, he really is not too clear about how powerful the empire is.
After all, according to what he said, his Earl's Castle was thousands of miles away from the empire. It was not an empty sign, but it was truly ten thousand miles away.
This distance makes the communication between him and the empire really not smooth.
When the empire went on the Eastern Expedition, it was very difficult to fight, or it was difficult to walk. It took a full 50 years from the beginning of the Eastern Expedition to his arrival.
After he came here, it took him 30 to [-] years to defeat Da Gan.
To be honest, there are not many troops in his hands, but there are really not many troops that are truly elite and can be mobilized by him.
According to Alexander's account, he commanded seven southeastern provinces. Among these seven provinces, only the five provinces from northern Xinjiang cost the smallest amount.
Because the area of any of the other four provinces is many times larger than these three provinces combined.
Even according to his explanation, the total area of these seven provinces does not need to be large or small.
However, the other four provinces have large areas, but some of them are cold and unsuitable for crop growth, and some are hot and dry, making them even less suitable for crop growth.
In addition, there are still many places with vast grasslands, which are suitable for grazing but not suitable for farming. Moreover, grazing requires frequent transfer of pastures, which is very troublesome.
It can be said that although the other four provinces are very large in area, their population is really very small, and together they can only be larger than one of the three southeastern provinces.
And such a vast area, coupled with the harsh living environment, means that he has a lot of troops, especially servants.
It's not because of anything else, it's mainly because all the people in these four provinces at the beginning were armed and became soldiers, regardless of whether they were men, women, old or young.
And this is the truth about the so-called millions of servants under his command.
At the same time, these millions of servants also need to assist the empire's army in suppressing the local people and the vast surrounding areas. Coupled with the distance of hundreds or thousands of miles, he has very few servants who can fight against Da Gan.
