This Li Yuanba, in addition to his own martial arts, he also has a guard composed of 300 people.

These three hundred people are all children of the Li family, wearing Xuanjia, which is different from other ironclad armies.

This kind of armor is made of black iron and has functions that are incomparable to ordinary iron armor.

Dark iron, dark black color, faintly revealing red light, extremely heavy, extremely rare, and special material, people believe that this is a kind of extraterrestrial meteorite, can also be called meteorite.

To say that this kind of thing is also a coincidence, the materials worn by these Xuanjia soldiers were found in a deep pit outside Lijiazhuang Village.

After finding it, the most outstanding blacksmith of the Li family spent his life creating three hundred and ten sets of Xuan armor, with the same number of weapons.

Therefore, Li Yuanba's 300-person guards are all fully equipped with Xuanjia, which can be regarded as invincible and invincible, and no one can break through the defense, which is impregnable.

The current lineup in Hanzhong is the ironclad army led by Li Yuanba, as well as the support troops gathered in the surrounding provinces.

Of course, the combat effectiveness of these support units is far worse than that of the ironclad army, but they are superior in numbers.

Since Zhang Rui provided shelter, there was no need to worry about the emperor's desperate plan to transfer troops, and the prefects of each prefecture brought all their subjects, which were both male and female veterans.

With such a population base, the number of combat units that can be concentrated has reached the maximum.

Among them, Xi'an Province sent 100,000 troops!

Baoji is even more powerful, and he has made up enough 150,000!

Even the smaller province of Ankang has a concentration of 90,000 people.

Although the Guangyuan Mansion in the south has only 110,000 people, those soldiers are all fierce mountain people, and their combat effectiveness can be regarded as the strongest!

Then there is the Barzhongfu, this is even more incredible, they are all warriors of the people and bandits of Qianliba Mountain, and there are even 150,000 people! In terms of combat effectiveness, it is as powerful as 200,000 people!

If McKee knew about the situation, he would have to secretly call for luck.

If these people hadn't gathered here, then his Daba Mountain operation would have been many times more difficult!

Then there is the smaller Dazhou Mansion, which also has a concentration of 100,000 people, and the quality of these people, like the people of Daba Mountain, is also the attribute of the mixed people and bandits.

To the west, near the south, is Longnan Province, where the morale of the people is slightly weaker, but they outnumber the Taba Mountain area, reaching 200,000 people, many of whom are thirteen or fourteen-year-old children.

However, although these children are young, they are already good laborers in the family, so they can be used like adults when they fight.

In this way, these nearby prefectures and cities actually concentrated an army of 800,000!

Coupled with Hanzhong's own defenders, especially Li Yuanba's 20,000 ironclad army, it was close to a million troops.

This amount made Zhang Rui take a big jump.

Isn't this number unprecedented and unprecedented?

Therefore, he no longer pretends to be mysterious, and directly says that he is the commander of a million-strong army.

This is probably the most realistic report since ancient times.

There are some habits in the Chinese kingdom that are a little strange, that is, the number of troops, there is one saying and two saying that there are two and two can be obtained, and winning or losing is not decided as soon as the number changes, but they don't, 200,000 stunned say that it is 800,000! 400,000 stunned say that it is 150,000!

Anyway, it's not telling the truth.

The actual number of these troops, with McKee's all-pervasive military reconnaissance, naturally could not escape his eyes.

He was also shocked.

It's not fake, is it?

Revisit!

So once again, the scouts rode out in four places, and in a variety of ways.

In the end, it was still a million!

And that's not even counting the militias that the people from the provinces have to protect themselves.

The best ones are concentrated, and the remaining old and weak teenagers can't fight regular wars, so it's still okay to protect yourself and protect your fellow villagers, and it's also incumbent.

There are at least 500,000 of these troops.

If someone attacks their nest, it is conceivable that their fighting power will definitely not be lower than that of those strong soldiers.

McKe's sources of intelligence come from two groups of people.

One is Wu Renxiao's professional scout, and the other is the beggars of the world.

Wu Renxiao's reconnaissance is incomparably precise, and the reconnaissance of the people of the world is pervasive.

The combination of the two reconnaissance methods reached an accuracy of more than 95%, which was incomparable to the people of that era.

Mai Ke knew the situation, and he also had a headache.

There are so many people, not to mention fighting against them, even if you are honestly waiting for you to cut off your head, it will take a long time!

Of course Time McKe has it, but is it used to kill people?

Of course, McKe's own military strength is also certain of absolute victory against this million-strong army, but how many people must die in order to win the war?

Half a million, a million?

Shudder!

It's not that this battle can't be won, it's that it can't be fought!

It's not that those people can't be defeated, but they can't be killed!

Mai Ke must avoid all-out war and break Zhang Rui's defense line without a fight.

So he used both hands.

The first hand is the traditional mobilization of the masses.

Let them do their own work for their loved ones.

And at this time, the conditions are already there!

This condition is that Mai Ke had a great water conservancy project some time ago, and then recovered Daba Mountain for thousands of miles, and all the subsequent work.

Among other achievements, the most important of these efforts is to win people's hearts.

The local people saw the strength and benevolence of the Heavenly Army, and they were all convinced.

In particular, those benefits, including the Four Seasons Orchard, the River of Life, the new house, electric lights and telephones, etc., were all things they could never have dreamed of before.

Even if their children leave their homeland to pursue it, they can't pursue it.

So they came to Hanzhong one after another to persuade their relatives to go back.

Have such a good life, what kind of battle! Pull it down.

Although they also spoke verbally, they all brought some physical objects as evidence.

The most important thing is the Four Seasons Fruit Bowl!

Most of them hadn't eaten it.

Now I hear that it can be eaten every day, and it is inexhaustible, and I can't help but yearn for it.

McCor also used a trick.

It was he who used the photography techniques that were too ordinary in later generations to give a family photo to each family, and the background was the four seasons orchard!

Looking at the smiling faces of their relatives and the bright fruits on the fruit trees in their orchards, the hard-hearted people were also moved!

So, everyone returned home.

First the families of the old and weak, then the soldiers, and finally even the prefects went back.

Because they knew that as soon as the Heavenly Army arrived, they would not have to fear the punishment of the Manchus!

Zhang Rui is helpless and angry!

The ironclad army with Li Yuanba is here to challenge Maiko's army!

Who knows, once the fight, Li Yuanba actually won five consecutive victories!

On the side of the Heavenly Army, no one dares to do it!(To be continued.) )
