Jingbian Army.

The army of this world is not quite the same as the world of Du Rui's previous life.

In Du Rui's previous life, especially in ancient China, the army was often more than hundreds of thousands, but in the 500,000 army, the soldiers were often less than 100,000, and the others were all civilians and auxiliaries, but although the auxiliaries were responsible for miscellaneous and logistics in peacetime, they could still come in handy during the war.

This world covers an area far larger than the earth, and even if it is an existence with extraordinary power, it does not know how vast the world is and where the edge is?

The territory of the entire Tang Empire is more than ten times larger than that of Du Rui's previous life.

In the north, the huge grassland where the Hu people are located is even wider, and it is still above the Tang Empire, but most of the territory is uninhabited, not suitable for human survival, and is the territory of demon beasts.

Thousands of years ago, there was a great master who went all the way north, through the vast grassland, from the territory of the huge demon beast to the extreme north, and broke into a vast ice field, there is no other existence except the dazzling white, this ice field is endless, no matter what, it can't find the end, it's like breaking into a maze, there is no way to find the direction.

Yes, even if he is about to step into the Heavenly Gate.

In the end, the Grand Master had no choice but to return, leaving behind a book of northern travels and then shattering the void and leaving.

In such a huge world, the number of troops in a dynasty is not as good as that of ancient China in Du Rui's previous life, take the Ming Dynasty as an example, the border army plus the Beijing battalion, not counting the military households in various places, there are more than one million, if you add those military households, there are at least two or three million, of course, this is only the number of people, only the strength on paper.

The territory of the Tang Empire was more than ten times larger than that of the Ming Dynasty, but the number of troops was about the same as that of the Ming Dynasty, including the army of Yan Zhao Fanzhen, which did not obey the central court.

Could it be that the population of the Tang Empire is comparable to that of the Ming Dynasty?

Not really!

As a prince, Du Rui can check the royal library, so even if he didn't go to the household department to check the population yellow book, he also roughly knows the population of the empire, although there are many errors, the population of the whole world is also more than 500 million, only more and not less, this is because the gate valve family often likes to hide the household registration, so it will also bear less taxes.

With a population of 500 million, the number of troops is only two or three million, which is a bit like a modern country, and the reason why the number of troops in modern countries has decreased is entirely because the power of science and technology can replace manpower.

Although this world has magical powers, it is not as omnipresent as the power of technology.

The reason why the number of troops is scarce is very simple, that is, there are only warriors in the army, and there are no ordinary people, taking the Jingbian Army as an example, the number of the entire army is only 50,000.

The Tang Empire has a population of more than 500 million, but the warriors are less than one percent, less than five million, of course, this is not without accurate statistics, can only be roughly estimated.

50,000 Jingbian troops, that is, 50,000 warriors, among them, the real combat force is less than 10,000, and more than 40,000 are miscellaneous soldiers, which are not of much use when fighting, and are mostly responsible for logistics and other matters.

If you use ordinary people to do these infrastructure work, the workload is too big and the time is too much, so it is not realistic at all.

If you use martial artists, even if most of them are ordinary martial artists who can't get through Xiao Zhou Tian and only have a few hundred catties of strength, they are much faster than ordinary people's work efficiency, which can come in handy.

When the army occupies a place, it needs to send forces to maintain law and order, and if it is maintained by ordinary people, then the result can only be hehe!

Even if a warrior who has never been through to a small Zhou Tian is in rebellion, even if there is a fully armed squad, even if this armed squad tries its best to resist, it will not be able to support a few breaths, and it will be killed by the warrior like a weak chicken, so recruiting ordinary people into the army is just a joke, and there is no meaning except for the loss of labor and money.

This is the reason why this world class is solidified.

Speaking of which, this social composition is similar to that of ants.

Ordinary people are worker ants and the like, responsible for most of the labor, producing means of production for the upper level, between the upper level and ordinary worker ants are soldier ants, these soldier ants are only responsible for part of the work, their scope of work is to fight, protect the reproduction of the population, but also for the territory and the like to fight with other ant groups, for humans, these soldier ants are actually warriors.

As for the queen ant in the ruling class, it is a group of forces composed of transcendents.

For the Tang Empire, it is the central court with the family gate valve as the main body, but now this power group is in a state of division, and another queen ant has been split from one ethnic group, competing for power and profit with each other.

The army of this world is similar to the border army of the Ming Dynasty in Du Rui's previous life.

Take a general soldier as an example, even if he commands twenty or thirty thousand troops, however, most of them are used to make up the number, and the only ones who can be relied on for the battle are the thousands of families under his personal command.

However, if the battle is not effective, the commander-in-chief will immediately turn in, and will only lead the men to flee, leaving those miscellaneous soldiers in the formation and deliberately throwing them to the enemy in order to hinder the pursuit of the enemy army.

The composition of the army in this world is similar to that of the border army of the Ming Dynasty, of course, it will not be as bad as it is when fighting.

Take the Jingbian Army as an example, there are 50,000 soldiers, and among these 50,000 people, there are more than 40,000 soldiers who are just ordinary warriors, most of these warriors can only be rough and shallow in the army, lack of cultivation resources, and often can't get through Xiao Zhoutian in their lifetime, of course, compared to ordinary people, their strength is also a lot stronger, and at worst they have hundreds of catties of strength.

These miscellaneous soldiers are not valued by the middle and upper echelons of the army, and only a very small number of geniuses can stand out, but once these geniuses have a reputation, they will leave the ordinary army, either become a captain in the miscellaneous soldiers, or enter the real combat unit.

The so-called four admirals are in command of the real combat troops, which is similar to the family members in the Ming Dynasty army.

Of the 50,000 Jingbian troops, there were only 3,000 or 4,000 strong soldiers.

Speaking of which, it may seem like too little, but in fact, it's not a lot!

Take the white skeleton who sneaked through the defense line into Handan Town, for example, among the five hundred horse bandits, most of them are actually just miscellaneous soldiers, and there are actually only more than ten decent warriors who really get through Xiao Zhoutian, but with the stimulation of the formation, these miscellaneous soldiers are in formation, and their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated, but Du Rui's true qi is too strange and extremely lethal, which can destroy it and defeat it.

If these five hundred miscellaneous soldiers have a leader, a warrior like Yan Luo, even if there is only one, Yue Chong's last choice is probably to go away, not daring to fight for a long time.

The vast majority of the more than 3,000 strong soldiers in the Jingbian Army are warriors of the Xiao Zhou Tian's consummation, and a small part of them are great Zhou Tian's consummation, and there are also congenital warriors, so the strength is actually very strong, otherwise, the town of Handan will not be as stable as Mount Tai.

The four major admirals each commanded 3,000 warriors.

The blood-clothed battalion, the dead soldier battalion, the smallest number of people, only a few hundred, less than five hundred, the people who are put into the blood-clothed battalion are all strong warriors who have committed major crimes, it is a pity to kill, not to kill is not enough to be angry with the people, well, the people here refer to the warrior group, and ordinary people have nothing to do with it, although, the law does not allow killing, this person also refers to ordinary people, in fact, unless it is in a big city, ordinary warriors kill one or two ordinary people, as long as the matter is not big, basically there is not much to do.

In fact, martial artists also have the self-discipline of martial artists, most martial artists look down on ordinary people, and disdain to base pleasure on the pain of ordinary people, of course, a small number of perverts are exceptions.

Most of the warriors in the Jingbian Army's death camp were death row prisoners, so it was extremely difficult to command, and only the murderous Nangong could suppress it.

Then, the number of people comparable to the Bloodcoat Battalion was the mage regiment.

The boss of the mage group is the green shirt Lando, there are four or five mages under his command, and the rest of the hundreds of people have mage apprentices and various craftsmen, most of the weapons and armor of the Jingbian army come from this department, in ancient times, the warriors were just the guards of the mages, and now, although it has not reached that extent, the role of the mage is also above the warrior.

In addition to being able to fight, mages are also capable of creating.

Without the existence of mages, there would be no rune arrays, and then this world would be very different from what it is now.

Therefore, in the Jingbian Army, the mage regiment is high, even if it is Guo Hui, even if he is not a bird Liang Fengzhi, he is not happy with Landu, who is bent on following Liang Fengzhi, but he will not put his emotions on the surface.

After that, it was the Guo family army under the command of Guo Hui, with seven or eight hundred people.

These seven or eight hundred people are mainly Fengxiang people, in addition, they are Guanzhong people, among them, there are very few warriors from the Kanto region, so this army is very independent, and the will of the Fengxiang Guo family is the mainstay.

Liang Fengzhi commanded 2,000 people, and his strength was the strongest.

In fact, he originally only commanded about 1,000 people, and after Feng Li's death, a thousand guards and pro-army also threw themselves to him, this is because he originally held the position of the commander of the guard pro-army, and those people were his old subordinates.

Now, Liang Fengzhi is standing in front of the yamen of the festival envoy in the city, and a cadre of generals is lined up around the gate, silently.

In the distance, Du Rui appeared on the corner of the street with his horse.
