"Fifteen thousand troops and horses are enough." Su Fan also didn't expect that he already had so many troops and horses under his command, especially cavalry. It was not that easy for the south to gather 3,000 cavalry.
"Where did you get the cavalry horses?"
Su Fan curiously wondered, he had been practicing in seclusion for the past two years, otherwise, it would not have been possible for him to reach the state of Qi and blood so quickly, and his martial arts realm improved very quickly.
He is completely relaxed towards his subordinates.
Of course, the reason why he dared to delegate power like this was that he believed in Ling Zhan and that the logistics of the army were completely under his control. Even if Ling Zhan had different intentions, it would be useless.
Moreover, his prestige in Wu County was so high that it was beyond imagination. The soldiers in the army were all civilians from the bottom, and there were also many refugees.
Especially for the refugees, Su Fan gave him a new life. Among the low-level refugees in Wu County, he was the one who gave birth to the Buddha.
So he can delegate power with confidence.
Ling Zhan did not disappoint him. In two years, there were 15,000 soldiers. These soldiers were not Du Fuwei. The rebel peasant troops in Wagang Village were all miscellaneous soldiers.
These fifteen thousand are completely elite, even more powerful than the Xiaoguo Army.
Everyone has practiced Su Fan's basic martial arts, and the officers at the bottom are all selected through layers of battles.
Su Fan had never doubted his fighting ability.
And with Ling Zhan, a fierce general in command, it is even more powerful.
Ling Zhan has now reached the top level. He may be worse than veteran generals like Shi Wansui, but compared to Qin Qiong who is coming up, he is no worse.
In history, strong generals like Qin Qiong were very strong, but in this world of the Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty, he was far behind Yuwen Chengdu, Pei Yuanqing and others.
Of course, according to Su Fan's estimation, Qin Qiong's current strength is about first-class, and he will definitely be able to surpass it in the future.
Strong generals on the battlefield will still not be left behind, but there are very few strong generals who want to have the combat power of a master.
After all, too much of the inheritance of military commanders has been lost, and most of the inheritance of military commanders left at the end of the Han Dynasty have some flaws.
Very few people go to practice.
For example, Ling Zhan clearly has the inheritance of the Ling family, but he only practices the first part, and never dares to practice the later part.
It was also when he met Su Fan that he taught him everything he could without any reservation. It was also like this that made the latter follow Su Fan wholeheartedly.
Now if he were asked to rebel, Ling Zhan would never frown.
Su Fan delegated power, and Ling Zhan also worked very hard. With sufficient money and food, he could expand the army unscrupulously.
"The war horses were traded from Pegasus Ranch."
"Pegasus Ranch" Su Fan suddenly remembered when he heard this, and he almost forgot about this force.
There is a top talent here.
The absolute engineering giant Naru Taeko, if such a talent is placed in future generations, he can definitely become a top engineer or even a scientist.
He had somewhat overlooked it before. In his eyes, this person's ability was even higher than those of the masters.
Traveling through a lifetime, Su Fan not only wanted to leave some traces in addition to his achievements in martial arts. If he was poor, he would be able to live alone, and if he was rich, he would help the world. He had no idea of dominating the world. He was too tired.
But if we can leave something behind so that the bottom class in the world can live a better life, that would actually be pretty good.
In the last world, he became the leader of the Huashan Sect. At that time, it was not the end of the Ming Dynasty. The bottom class of the Ming Dynasty could still survive as long as there were no natural disasters.
But he still laid down a world in Nanyang, for the sake of the future, war, and to give those people a chance to survive.
It is not in vain that he traveled through this life. Not to mention how famous he left behind, but he was definitely kind to humanity and he definitely had great merits.
He even thinks that if he was able to break through to innateness in his previous life, it might be a humane reward.
Otherwise, among so many talented people, why was he the only one to break through? Feng Qingyang and Dongfang Bubai didn't break through to the innate.
Therefore, in this life, when he came to the end of the Sui Dynasty, he could not prevent the world from chaos, but here in Wu County, he could give the refugees a chance to survive.
In recent years, hundreds of thousands of refugees have fled to his place.
However, this is already the limit of Wu Jun.
The productivity of ancient times cannot allow one place to save the world.
But he can increase productivity as much as possible and save more people, which can be regarded as a contribution to humanity.
As for the way of heaven, there is nothing we can do about it. The way of heaven is supreme and treats all things as stupid dogs, and humans are just one of them.
With the help of the Yuwen family, he also gathered a group of craftsmen and provided them with some theories, allowing them to invent some good appliances.
However, these craftsmen can only be tool workers who work hard. It is impossible for them to become leaders.
But Lu Miaozi was different. Su Fan believed that he might be able to build a steam engine if he suggested a little idea of boiling a kettle.
Thinking of this, Su Fan also had the idea of setting off.
On Du Fuwei's side, Su Fan had no intention of going there in person. Ling Zhan and the others had now achieved a breakthrough in strength. They had four first-class battlefield generals and more than 10,000 elite soldiers. No matter how strong Du Fuwei was, he could not be their opponent.
.
"Well! Ling Zhan, Jianghuai Army Du Fuwei, you should know, right?"
Su Fan changed his mind and said.
"Prefect, do you mean to send troops to Jianghuai Army?"
When Ling Zhan heard this, his eyes lit up. He was now an orthodox court official. Although he didn't want to see Yang Guang, he naturally didn't have a good look at Du Fuwei from Jianghuai.
No matter what banner Du Fuwei raises, in his eyes, he is still a rebel, so he naturally has no objection to sending troops to attack these people.
"Yes, it is the Jianghuai Army. This time I am going to let you be the main general, and Ren Tong and the others will bring my private soldiers as auxiliaries."
"General, Governor, I can't do it"
When Ling Zhan heard this, he immediately shook his head. This time he sent troops, it was not a small fight like before. An army of almost 20,000 people was involved in a real battle. If they were defeated, wouldn't it mean that all the efforts of the prefect were defeated?
"Haha! What? You're scared?"
Su Fan smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, I believe you. In the past few years, you have brought this group of county soldiers to this level. Even the famous generals in ancient times can't do much better than you."
Of course, this is a bit too much to praise, but Ling Zhan did a good job. The reason why the county soldiers can achieve today's elite combat capabilities is not only due to his investment regardless of cost, but also due to Ling Zhan's rigorous training.
"I don't understand military formations. It would be unfair to them to ask me to direct the war."
Su Fan has no humility. It is not that simple to lead troops to fight. In his last life, he only led hundreds of martial arts masters to fight.
But a battle with ten thousand people is different.
The rules and regulations here have not been systematically studied, and it is just a matter of looking for trouble.
He couldn't even do it on paper with Zhao Kuo.
But Ling Zhan is different. Not only does he have the military skills passed down from his family, but he has also been leading troops to suppress bandits over the years and has accumulated a lot of experience.
Therefore, Su Fan was relatively relieved.
