Chapter Sixteen: One Hundred Thousand Qin Army Comes to Tang Dynasty
Yizhou Island, portal.
What came through the portal today was no longer a group of scholars, but an army in neat formation, and the first to come were the militiamen.
These militiamen wear paper armor and leather armor, and their armor coverage rate is considered 100%.
Although they are much weaker than the soldiers, their physical fitness is not up to standard, and they cannot wear armor for all of them, but on average, one pair of armor for every ten people is still no problem.
Ten people in a pair of armor, this kind of armor wearing rate is better than Yang Guang's Central Forbidden Army Xiaoguo Army. Even the Xiaoguo Army cannot make three meals a day, nor can they train consistently every day.
Thousands of these militiamen formed a square formation and stepped forward one by one. Li Jing stood on a high place and almost drooled when he looked at these troops. These days, a wise man wants good generals, but good generals like strong soldiers!
"They are very strong. They are really strong. These soldiers look very strong. They are all good boys. Each one of them has at least twenty kilograms of meat on his body. If there is a war, he can kill the enemy with all his strength."
The twenty pounds of meat in Li Jing's mouth can basically be equated to fat and fat.
After a big war, it actually consumes a lot of energy. Not only does it consume a lot of energy during the life-and-death battle after the war starts, but it also consumes a lot of energy before the war starts.
In this case, whose soldiers usually eat more and have more muscle reserves of fat, their army can consume more and can persevere better.
In fact, the early trials and frictions in a war take the longest time. A good general with confidence and experience will often spend a lot of time in early trials until the opponent can no longer hold on, or there is an obvious problem.
After the flaw was discovered, the main force was really dispatched to make the final decision!
"The murderous intent of these armies is not very strong. It's a bit superficial, as if they haven't killed enough people. It's really strange that Da Qin's army also has such recruits?"
Hearing this, Fang Xuanling smiled: "I heard from General Meng that these soldiers are just second-line troops in Daqin, local garrison forces. Their main task is to maintain local security and cooperate with local officials to bring Daqin's rule deep into the grassroots. As for the real
Those who go to fight are soldiers."
When he said this, Fang Xuanling couldn't stop the smile on his face. The militia in front of him can give a glimpse of the reality of the Qin Dynasty. It is really too powerful!
"But their foundation is really good. If I were to lead such an army, it wouldn't take much. If there are only thirty thousand, they can run rampant for a while, separate themselves from one side, and persist for ten or twenty years."
"If there are 100,000 people, I can hope to devour the world, enough to occupy the south or Guanzhong. If there are 200,000 people, I will be invincible. Even at the peak of the Sui Dynasty, I dare to fight!"
tread
tread
tread,
One square array after another appeared one after another. At first, Li Jing was surprised and commented, but later he became numb.
"One hundred thousand people!"
But it wasn't over yet. Before Li Jing and others could finish their surprise, an army all dressed in black armor appeared. This army had a square formation of one hundred people, and its momentum was very different from the militiamen just now.
"Tiger and Wolf Warriors! With such beautiful muscle lines, such a tall figure, such powerful arms and thighs, how much food do such soldiers consume in a year? How much meat?"
Listening to Li Jing's inquiry, Du Ruhui opened and closed his eyes and figured it out: "The total number of soldiers in this army is ten thousand. They insist on training every day. Everyone's breath has been practiced. What's even more rare is that they are strictly disciplined.
."
"For such an army, if the daily consumption of each person is converted into rice, it will cost at least ten kilograms, which is still the minimum, and at least one kilogram of meat. Each of them spends at least sixty yuan on training every day, which is two kilograms a year.
Ten thousand dollars is not enough!”
"To raise such an army of 10,000 people, even just for training, plus the rewards during the holidays, it costs at least 30,000,000 yuan every year. In fact, this money is not much, the Sui Dynasty can get it with gritted teeth, but meat
There is no other way, Da Qin must have a way to breed meat on a large scale..."
Smart people know autumn when a leaf falls, and top smart people like Li Jing, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Wei Zheng deduced a lot of information after watching the militiamen and soldiers.
They all had a rough idea of Da Qin's strength, and their faces slowly filled with smiles: This time, it's done!
…
Inside the palace, a high-level meeting is taking place. The total number of people is only about thirty, and each of them is not simple.
Ying Zheng was naturally sitting on the main seat. On his left was Meng Ao, the former general of the empire and now the head of the Sui branch of the Conquest Department. Behind him sat a group of generals.
The leader on the right is Fang Xuanling. In the past few months, Fang Du, Wei Zheng, Li Jing and others have proven their abilities with facts.
Today, they represent local civil servants and military generals. Although their power is not big enough now, the number of people in Da Qin is limited, and it is only a matter of time before local people are reused.
What's more, several of them have already learned regular script and are now natives of the Qin Dynasty. They are all our own people. Behind them are Li Chunfeng, the representative of the local Taoist sect, and Tan Sect, the representative of the local Buddhist sect.
In short, those on the left are the imperialists, and those on the right are the naturalized faction. It can be said that they are clearly divided, but they all maintain harmony in front of Ying Zheng.
"Everyone, the empire will launch a war in the near future. The goal is to completely occupy this world. The initial small goal is to eliminate the Sui Dynasty and establish a branch of the Qin Empire in this world. Next, let General Meng introduce the specific situation."
Hearing this, Meng Ao stood up, nodded towards Ying Zheng and spoke: "It has been almost two years since the Expedition Division came to this world. In the past two years, it has benefited from Mr. Shilong's selfless contribution and Xiujia Nanzi.
Mr.’s close cooperation has achieved a lot of results.”
"Let's talk about it as a whole first. So far, Shilong Dojo has annexed the Zhuhua Gang in Yangzhou and has become the leading gang in the entire south."
"The gang is governed strictly in accordance with military law and is divided into the security faction and the soldier faction."
"The former's position in the future is that yamen servants are minor officials, mainly responsible for maintaining local security, and the content of their studies is also based on this. The total number has reached more than 7,000, and they all study Dazhuan and Qin Fa.
You can take up the post with a little training.”
"Of course, in terms of quality alone, it's incomparable to Da Qin's, but in today's era, it's still pretty good, at least it's better than before."
"The latter are trained strictly in accordance with the requirements of the militia. Now the total number is as high as 40,000, and they are ready for use. Once the war breaks out, they only need a little training and see the blood, and they will be an elite soldier."
"In addition to the Shilong Dojo, the major gangs along the coast, such as the Haisha Gang, have also been completely brought under control. On the surface, they are still gangs supported by the Dugu Clan and the Song Clan, but the internal core has long been replaced.
."
"As for the intelligence system, with the help of the Xiu family, Da Qin's spies can be said to be all over the world. Coupled with the two magic weapons of radio and telegraph, it can be said that no one can defeat it."
"As for gold and silver, there is no shortage of treasures. We manufacture sea salt in large quantities in overseas bases such as Yizhou Island and Ryukyu Island. These sea salts are sold to most corners of the world with the help of Xiujia's channels."
As for those who originally sold private salt, what should they do if their interests have been violated?
Do you still dare to be called Xiujia?
The Xiu family has even come up with parenting scriptures, but now they are selling private goods without rebelling, and they even make timely contributions to the court. What are you thinking about?
