In fact, commanding the army is indeed a very time-consuming and energy-consuming thing, Mu Youchen and others once again counted the number of soldiers under their current command, this proposal was proposed by Du Xiongfei, now Mu Youchen's subordinate soldiers are becoming more and more complex, and the number of soldiers needs to be counted in time, and then re-organized, so that the entire army can be more convenient to command and clear.

According to statistics, among the troops under the command of Mu Youchen and others, there were 3,928 ghost warriors, and although the spirit cultivators brought from the Beijing division had experienced tragic battles, there were still 982 people because they were all spirit cultivators.

But the mountain people suffered heavy losses, and now only forty-five people remain.

The remaining more than 700 people joined Mu Youchen and others later. And now, they have two thousand five hundred soldiers and horses from Black Wind Village, and more than two thousand Hu Fei's subordinates.

This is all added up, and the soldiers under Mu Youchen and others can be regarded as breaking through the 10,000 mark, but the numbers sound beautiful, but these are all different people mixed together to form combat power, which is far less powerful than the numbers show.

Then, after the consultation of several people, including Du Xiongfei, it was decided to name this army the Yasukuni Army, the meaning of which was naturally to calm the country's troubles and drive out all the invaders and rebels in the Tianchen Kingdom.

After the confirmation of several people, Mu Youchen was the commander of the Yasukuni Army and commanded the three armies. Xuan Jiayin is a vanguard general, although his status is respected, but judging from the impulsiveness he often shows, the vanguard general is the most suitable position for him.

Xun Langyu is the deputy commander, because Xun Langyu is the son of the lord of the southern realm, and he has the popularity that Mu Youchen and Xuan Jiayin do not have.

The 10,000 people of the Yasukuni Army were divided into three regiments, with Mu Yaqing, Ghost Lao and Du Xiongfei serving as regiment commanders respectively, and the more grass-roots positions were filled by their respective talents.

Among them, the cavalry under Hu Fei was divided into two teams and organized into the first regiment and the second regiment, while the cavalry under Du Xiongfei was alone and standing in a group, led by Du Xiongfei himself.

It can be seen from this incident that Hu Fei is not trusted.

In fact, Mu Youchen also wanted to separate the people of Black Wind Village, but they didn't have that many people to break down the huge number of people in Black Wind Village.

According to the performance of the two people, in the end, Mu Youchen kept the Black Wind Village in its original appearance, and even gave them the establishment of a regiment.

Subsequently. The second regiment commanded by Mu Yaqing and Xun Langyu remained in Shiyuan Town, totaling 3,548 people.

And Mu Youchen and Xuan Jiayin, Du Xiongfei and others came to Black Wind Village under the leadership of Du Xiongfei.

When he saw Black Wind Village, Mu Youchen knew that what Xun Langyu said was true. The Black Wind Village is indeed more suitable for defense than Ishihara Town, with tall and wide wooden walls, a horizontal station that can accommodate five people at a time, and an arrow tower built on it. It can be seen that Du Xiongfei was ready to deal with the war when he built the Black Wind Village.

"How's the food stockpile?"

Mu Youchen and others visited the entire Black Wind Village under the leadership of Du Xiongfei and were very satisfied with the defensive measures here.

But having a strong defense only guaranteed that they would not be killed by the enemy, and if there was no food and grass, they themselves would starve themselves to death.

"Of course, don't forget that we made a deal with Shen He. He was very generous and provided us with a lot of food and weapons, and I think he did the same thing as you, and now we are connected to the fate of the Shen family. ”

Du Xiongfei said lightly, Shen He is a character who knows how to seize the opportunity. Therefore, Du Xiongfei is willing to make friends with Shen He.

Now, their ranks have expanded, and a large army of more than 10,000 people needs food, weapons, and clothing. These can only be provided by Shen He.

Of course, Shen He also needs their feedback, otherwise, no matter how strong the Shen family is, it will not be able to support it.

"Shen He's support has advantages and disadvantages, if we want to continue to get Shen He's support, we must go to war, capture some places, and facilitate the expansion of the Shen family's industry, otherwise, the Shen family will soon be dragged down by us."

Mu Youchen saw it even more clearly, although Ishihara Town was enough to give them logistical support. But the small town of Ishihara, with a population of 100,000, could not supply a legion of 10,000 men for a long time.

Therefore, if you want the Shen family to continue to provide them with all kinds of materials, you must expand.

The meaning of expansion is actually very simple, that is, to lay down other towns, and then let the Shen family's industry extend, and even let the Shen family control the commerce of the captured city.

In this way, the Shen family's industry can expand, and they have huge resources to supply Mu Youchen with all kinds of necessities.

"Yes, I thought about it when I was preparing to submit to you. Fighting a war is a very expensive thing. It is very difficult for 100,000 people to support 10,000 people, not to mention that these 100,000 people will not all support us. So in order to continue to get the support of the Shen family, we must start fighting. I have thought about it, the nearest city is also one hundred and fifty kilometers away, it seems to have been captured by the people of the Southern Chu State, but the number is not very large. They conquered the city with about 10,000 men, and then left 3,000 men to defend it. ”

Du Xiongfei had already understood this, and he expected to participate in Mu Youchen's army...... Now it should be called the Yasukuni Army. After that, more and more people will join them, after all, the people of the southern border do not like the people of the Southern Chu Kingdom to invade their place.

Now it seems that his prediction was correct.

Although it has formed a cooperative relationship with the Shen family, in the face of the bottomless abyss of the army, the Shen family will sooner or later be in short supply.

"Very well, one hundred and fifty kilometers, if it is a cavalry, it is only a day's journey. It looks like we're going to have a fight coming soon. “

After Mu Youchen heard Du Xiongfei's words, he knew that Du Xiongfei had already planned it. This is a person who likes to plan ahead, giving people the impression that he knows everything, but in fact, it is he who likes to prepare everything that may happen in advance, so that people can have this illusion.

"It's not easy to capture a city held by 3,000 people, not to mention that the walls of that city are eight meters high, what can the cavalry rely on to attack the city?"

Du Xiongfei couldn't help but ask, the tone in Mu Youchen's words seemed to have taken down the city.

"Now that you have thought about the cities you want to attack, then it means that you have planned how to attack these cities, don't hide, share it, maybe we can help you improve it."

Mu Youchen smiled slightly, since Du Xiongfei had thought about everything, Mu Youchen would naturally give Du Xiongfei a chance to display his abilities.
