"Huh? There is no more troop formation? ”

The crown prince found that the strength of the army was gone here, and he couldn't help but be very disappointed and ready to put away the scroll, but as if he had suddenly discovered something, he approached the scroll and said in a tone of surprise: "The infantry cavalry equipment is completely equipped according to the old practice, and the enlistment period of soldiers is one percent for ten years, two percent for five years, and seventy percent for three years!" And all the soldiers have more than ten wars! It can't be! At this time, the crown prince had already stared at the boss, the boss. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Hearing the crown prince's words, the four ministers, who had not been very concerned, immediately flashed their eyes, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces. Soldiers with more than three years of military experience can already be said to be elite soldiers, and those who have experienced more than ten battles can be said to be elite soldiers among elite soldiers!

Although the four legions in the imperial capital now, among the 1.6 million people, will definitely be able to find a division of elite soldiers, who will gather these elite soldiers together? With so many combat experiences, even if he was originally a private, he is now qualified to be awarded a colonel, and with so many officers assembled, there is no need to bring the troops below.

"Is this true?" The prime minister suddenly asked the chief of intelligence.

The chief intelligence officer who was questioned said a little embarrassed: "The report of the intelligence department has not yet been transmitted. He paused, and then said with some certainty: "However, if this Colonel Zhao Hu is the same Colonel Zhao Hu, then the information he reported should be true, even if there is water, it is not much false." ”

The prime minister squinted his eyes and smiled: "Do you know this Colonel Zhao Hu?" ”

The chief of intelligence said first: "The lower officials are not sure yet. Then he saluted the crown prince and asked, "Your Highness, the lower official dares to ask what the resume of this Colonel Zhao Hu is......"

The crown prince, who had already sobered up from shock and had been paying attention to the minister's conversation, looked at the scroll and said: "The information he reported said that he was a staff officer of the Fifth Brigade and Fifth Wing of the Haibin Provincial Local Garrison Division. Later, due to his military exploits, he was temporarily appointed as the chief officer of the Fifth Wing by the commander of the Haibin Provincial Garrison Division, and was promoted to colonel. ”

It stands to reason that the crown prince could not carry out such a work like a clerk, but whoever called the scroll was in his hands, and there was no one else except for the four ministers, so the crown prince, who did not want to appear too arrogant, could only do this work.

The chief intelligence officer clapped his hands: "That's right, it's him, so he should indeed have 30,000 elite soldiers in his hands now." ”

The chief of the gendarmerie was very puzzled and asked, "Why?" Is this Colonel Zhao Hu very powerful? ”

The chief of intelligence nodded: "It's really powerful, he was the marshal's personal soldier at the beginning, and later ......" The chief intelligence chief told Zhao Hu about the past when he led a brigade across the prairie.

After the crown prince peeked at the marshal, he opened his mouth and said, "Give an order to allow Zhao Hu to expand his forces to the point of one legion." "His 30,000 elite soldiers can still form a legion if they are put down as officers. As for the military rank, he will maintain the rank of major general for the time being, and he will be promoted after he has made meritorious contributions. ”

"Well, Your Highness is wise." The prime minister and others all nodded in approval.

Seeing that everyone agreed to his proposal, the crown prince felt a little proud in his heart, and began to say what he had been looking forward to for a long time: "When we give this order, shouldn't we show our strength to the people of the world?" Let the world understand that only we are orthodox, and those rebellious ministers and thieves are not enough to worry about? ”

The prime minister nodded: "Your Highness is very right, we should really show our strength, I don't know what His Excellency the Marshal thinks?" ”

The marshal got up and said, "Since the soldiers have just finished training, in the early stage, the lower officers thought that it was best to find a weaker opponent to attack. ”

The crown prince saw that the marshal did not object. Immediately smiled excitedly: "This is natural, persimmons still have to be pinched softly." Chief of Intelligence, please tell us which one we should target now. ”

The chief of intelligence stood up and saluted and said: "Yes, Your Highness, my lords, the lower officials think that our current target should be the eastern province of Xiangdongxing, which is controlled by the three major clans, and the total strength of the entire province is about three legions, which is the weakest of the provinces around the imperial capital. Moreover, by taking the province of Xiangdongxing, we can obtain several large mineral deposits, so that our armaments will no longer be infested and we can build our own weapons. ”

When he heard this, the prime minister's heart trembled, because he was also a relative. However, for many years, as the prime minister, he has treated all princes equally, and almost no one will treat him as a relative, thinking of this, the prime minister's heart has regained peace.

"Good! The first part of our army is the capital township of Dongxing Province! I must capture all those warlord families alive! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gritted his teeth and said with a glint of hatred in his eyes. In the past, he, the signature prince who was destined to give way to his younger brother, was bullied by these relatives.

The four ministers all understood the state of mind of the prince who made the request, and the four ministers did not object to this request, anyway, after the New Year. He is the monarch of his own people.

And this request is not a difficult thing, why not make the future master happy?

As the order was issued, the imperial capital, which had been quiet for a long time, began to open its minions, and the surrounding forces of the imperial capital immediately entered a state of alert, and the envoys began to run around, calling friends everywhere to prepare to resist the fierce attack of the imperial capital.

Everyone knows that the imperial capital is actually a combination of military camps, vaults, and warehouses, and when such a combination shows its capabilities, no one dares to underestimate it.

Coastal Province.

Because the Lu family wantonly emblemented soldiers, causing the surrounding warlords to follow and increase their troops, so that the east of the province was about to explode, the enemy provoked by the Lu family, Colonel Zhao Hu, ordered two infantry brigades and a cavalry wing, and left the sea with a menacing momentum, and went straight to the Lu family's territory.

On the way out of Zhao Hu's troops, there were small warlords who wanted to compete, but in an instant, they were beaten by Zhao Hu's troops.

As soon as this powerful offensive came out, coupled with the fact that Zhao Hu's troops showed that they were only looking for trouble with the Lu family, the surrounding warlords all stopped at the border of their forces, vigilantly watching the actions of Zhao Hu's troops.

The Lu family was even more crazy now, and a small piece of land was actually recruited by him to recruit nearly 150,000 soldiers.

However, such a rabble was defeated just by taking a face with Zhao Hu's troops, and the soldiers of the Lu family who fled in all directions threw away their weapons and military uniforms, and immediately became flat-headed people, and the unpopular Lu family was abandoned by his people in an instant.

Zhao Hu's troops were like no one's land, and they were resisted until the base of the Lu family, but under the battle of the strong and inhuman army of Zhao Hu's troops, they were quickly annihilated, and after deducting the marching time on the road, Zhao Hu's army only took three days to destroy the Lu family.

When Zhao Hujun began to implement a strict household registration system, demoted the members and officials of the Lu family to slaves and untouchables, reduced the people in the territory of the Lu family to commoners, promoted some officials and civilians who had defected to Zhao Hujun to subordinates, civilians or superiors, and began to count materials, the surrounding warlords thought that they could be fishermen, and sent elite troops to take advantage of the fire to loot.

However, they obviously did not expect the ferocity of Zhao Hujun's food, as soon as they found the enemy invasion, Zhao Hujun was like a tiger descending the mountain, first showing a surprising assembly speed, and instantly gathered the two infantry brigades, and then quickly pounced on the fastest rushing enemy, a simple stab to defeat this group of enemy troops, followed by the cavalry wing behind the infantry, and immediately launched a pursuit.

The infantry brigade that completed the pursuit task then showed a frightening marching speed, and actually maintained a frightening speed, spanning dozens of kilometers without stopping, and very suddenly plunged into the heart of a group of enemy troops who thought that Zhao Hu's army was still in the sky and had relaxed their vigilance.

This group of enemy troops was even worse than the previous group of enemy troops, the army supervisor was killed at the first time, and most of the chaotic soldiers were cut down, until Zhao Hujun's cavalry wing caught up before being let go by Zhao Hujun's infantry brigade.

In this way, Zhao Hu's army relied on the tactics of terrifying build-up and marching speed, accurate intelligence information, and infantry and cavalry pursuit, and completely defeated several groups of warlords who came to pick up bargains.

If it weren't for the lack of strength of Zhao Hu's army, I am afraid that it would have counterattacked into the enemy's territory. However, this flaw of Zhao Hujun made the surrounding warlords feel very happy. In short, these warlords who steal chickens and rice do not dare to show their claws to Zhao Hujun at this stage.

So, with Zhao Hujun replacing the Lu family and hurting the surrounding warlords, the entire eastern province settled down.

The other warlords in the seaside province were relieved to see that the source of the unrest had stabilized, and began to disband the strong men who had forcibly recruited them, so that they could return to their places of origin and continue to provide them with money, materials and equipment.

The original Lu family castle, now Zhao Hu station, in the martial arts arena.

Peter, who had vaguely become the head of the civil officials of the warlords of Zhao Hu, saluted Zhao Hu and said: "My lord, now most of the civil officials of the Southeast Peninsula have been transferred, but the number of troops on our side is too scarce, and there are only two regular brigades in such a large area, and it is too tense for both defense and attack. ”

"The minister wants to ask the lord to transfer the strength of three brigades from the southeast peninsula, so that we can have the strength of a regular division and regiment."

Zhao Hu who put away his blade. He took the towel given by Zhou Wen, wiped his sweat and asked, "How much force can be used on the Southeast Peninsula?" ”
