Chapter 143: Expansion of the Army

Putting the folder down, Yunyi fell into deep thought.

Most of the small and medium-sized forces in the Dali Empire are confined to a certain area, but those large forces are all over the country, and it is easy to find that there are Guangmingjiao figures all over the country, so you can imagine the scale of the Guangmingjiao, although it is not as good as the deep-rooted Taoism (teaching), but it has exceeded the scale of the Shijia, and most of the people who believe in the Guangmingjiao are farmers who make a living from farming.

A bunch of mud-legged people are gathered together, this is to do something!

When the Illuminatia gradually revealed itself to the world, some large forces in the Dali Empire became vigilant against the Illuminati and actively collected information about the Illuminati, wanting to see what the purpose of the Illuminati was.

However, the Illuminati is too deeply hidden, after decades of development, the Illuminati has become a super force hidden in the corner of the Dali Empire, Yunyi has not collected deeper intelligence from the Illuminati with Xunfeng and Tianmu, at most he only understands that the scale of the Illuminati is very large, and there are Illuminati missionaries and believers all over the country, and he also knows that there are warriors in the Illuminati, but it is difficult to find that there are innate martial artists in the Illuminati, and there are more than one or two, which is a frightening number. (Regarding the question of the innate martial artists in the Sect of Light, an explanation will be given later)

Xunfeng and Tianmu are medium-sized intelligence organizations with the support of Yunyi's large amount of money, even if the two are combined, they are not as good as those large intelligence organizations, but those large intelligence organizations do not necessarily have more information about the Bright Sect than Yunyi, after all, they have not been paying attention to the Bright Sect for a long time, and Yun Yi has long noticed the Bright Sect and ordered Xunfeng and Tianmu to actively collect information about the Bright Sect.

Even if it is difficult for the major forces to collect too much information about the Illuminati, but now that the Illuminati has surfaced, even if most of them now seem to be just an ordinary religious organization, that is, the scale is larger, but the Illuminati has developed to such a large scale without a trace, and no big force dares not to attach importance to the Illuminati.

This is exactly where Yun Yi is puzzled, the Bright Sect has been slowly developing and consolidating its strength in secret, and when it accumulates enough strength, it will sweep the world again, isn't it very good, Yun Yi's strategy for his own development is like this.

Why did the Illuminati suddenly appear in front of the eyes of the world and recruit believers with great fanfare?

In response to this doubt, Yun Yi slowly thought of three answers in his heart.

The first answer: The Illuminati Sect is not an organization that wants to rebel like the Taiping Dao in the late Han Dynasty in the previous life, as Yun Yi thought, but just an ordinary religious organization.

The second answer: Taking advantage of the disaster year, the Illuminati want to quickly expand their influence.

The third answer: The strength that the Illuminati Sect has secretly accumulated is enough, and there is no need to hide it anymore, just take advantage of the disaster year to absorb more believers, and then raise the banner and sweep the world.

Then Yun Yi ruled out the first answer, the Bright Sect was too hidden, and Yun Yi couldn't know the true strength of the Bright Sect, such a super force appeared in time, obviously the purpose would not be so simple, in Yun Yi's opinion, the Bright Sect except for rebellion The rest is still rebellion.

Whether it was the second answer or the third answer, Yun Yi's vigilance against the Bright Sect continued to increase, and it had been raised to the highest level.

The difference between the second answer and the third answer is very simple, the former is to rebel again in the future, and the latter is about to rebel, no matter whether the Illuminati Sect rebels sooner or later, with the information obtained by Yun Yi, the Illuminati Sect already has the strength to make the Great Li Empire chaotic.

Although the warriors are strong, it is difficult to resist the vast ocean of the people's war, not to mention that the Dali Empire is now divided.

The Dali Empire is in danger, and Yunhua County, which is one of the one hundred and three counties of the Dali Empire, is also in danger.

Countless thoughts circulated in Yun Yi's mind, and in the end, there were only one or two words left - expanding the army.

Only by expanding the army can the Yun clan have enough strength to resist the troubled times that may come.

At present, the strength of the Yun clan on the surface has more than 3,000 people in the Yun family's army, and there are hundreds of people in each city together, Yun Yi is a congenital martial artist, two people are in the ninth order of the day after tomorrow, and there are several martial artists of other ranks.

The strength of the Yun clan is really weak and pitiful, it doesn't need much, only an army of 50,000 farmers can capture all the cities in Yunhua County.

Fortunately, the Yun clan still has hidden power, with more than 2,300 people in the Tiger Army, more than 1,200 people in the Shenji Battalion, more than 160 Earth Network Martial Artists, plus four Innate Martial Artists, Yun Yuanzhong and other five Acquired Eighth-Order Martial Artists have also been promoted to the Ninth Order of the Acquired Tomorrow and started their own path of accumulation.

However, there are a large number of thousand-year-old elixirs, and the five of them can be promoted to congenital at any time, but such a rapid promotion will cause an unstable foundation, which is very bad for future cultivation, so Yun Yi postponed the promotion of Yun Yuanzhong's five people to two years later, at that time, the Yun clan has ten innate martial artists, and in the entire land of Shenzhou, the number of Yun innate martial artists can also rank in the top ten, but the quantity is there, but the quality is poor, and the old innate martial artists are not comparable to the new innate martial artists.

All the strength of the Yun clan together is enough to keep Yunhua County, but just keeping Yunhua County is not what Yun Yi wants, if the world is really in chaos, that is the opportunity of the Yun family, with the current strength, the Yun family can only defend passively, and cannot take the initiative to conquer the city.

To expand the army, it is necessary to expand the army.

The Yun clan has enough financial resources to carry out a large-scale expansion of the army, although on the surface, the Yun clan can only maintain an army of 3,000 people, but the Yun clan also has an overseas Yingzhou, which is not under the jurisdiction of the Dali Empire, and the Yun clan can establish an army with a large enough number in Yingzhou at will.

It is precisely because of natural disasters that some ordinary people in the surrounding counties of Yunhua County are migrating to Yunhua County, which can provide more labor for Yun's development of Yingzhou, and also allow Yunyi to expand the army on a large scale.

This time to expand the army, Yun Yi plans to expand the Tiger Army and the Shenji Battalion to 3,000 people, and in the future, the Tiger Ben Army and the Shenji Battalion will be matched one-to-one, which can give full play to the strength of the two armies, and the ground network will also recruit personnel.

However, the expansion of the army is not something that Yunyi can complete with his mouth, there is no shortage of money in the Yun family, but food is a big problem, before the large-scale planting of sweet potatoes, the migration population to Yunhua County continues to increase, and Yunyi has to expand the army on a large scale, and the food in the hands of the Yun family is difficult to support the large-scale harvest of sweet potatoes.

Then you can only buy it from the outside world, the price of food from the outside world has risen to a relatively high level, but the Yun family is not bad for money, if the world is really in chaos, money is far less than food, even if the food is expensive, the Yun family has to buy enough food.

Yun Yi doesn't believe that the Yun family can't buy grain if he takes out a lot of money?
