In the council hall of the Rantburg City Lord's Mansion, Ding Lin listened to Liu Ji's words, and knew that his lord had made up his mind to attack Zhu Qiguo, in fact, Ding Lin also thought that what Liu Ji said was still very reasonable. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After all, the number of troops in the entire Gaochang Kingdom is at least more than 3.5 million, and this is not counting the armies of those client states in the Gaochang Kingdom, otherwise it may increase by more than 2.5 million.

These armies were in the hands of the Eastern Governor Haner Apdu, with millions of troops from Gaochang and millions of vassal states, and the rest of the armies under the control of the king of Gaochang and the three other governors.

If there is no accident, once Gao Changguo learns that the Xuju Kingdom has fallen into the hands of Liu Ji, and the 20,000 cavalry sent from the Zhuqi Kingdom to the Xuju Kingdom are all wiped out, it will definitely be the Eastern Metropolitan Governor Haner Apudu who will mobilize his troops to attack the current Xuju County.

And with the strength in the hands of Haner Apdu, it is easy to mobilize hundreds of thousands, or even millions of troops, and his most beloved son is still in the hands of Liu Ji at this time.

However, Liu Ji's total strength in Suju County is now less than 50,000, and if he doesn't think of a way, the chances of victory are absolutely slim.

Ding Lin pondered for a moment and said to Liu Ji: "What the lord said makes sense, but now there is only a broken cauldron and a ship!" My lord, we have also captured more than 7,000 soldiers of the former Suju Kingdom, and our subordinates have suggested that they can be directly incorporated into our army. ”

Liu Ji touched his chin and said, "It's not just those soldiers and officers of the original Suju Kingdom of more than 7,000, now we must strengthen our strength at all costs to deal with that behemoth of Gaochang Kingdom." ”

From November 12, 426 of the Great Jin Dynasty, the newly established Xuju County was like a running war machine, and Liu Ji ordered that in addition to the more than 7,000 soldiers and officers of the original Suju Kingdom into the Ju'an Army, all young and strong men over the age of 18 and under the age of 35 in the territory of Suju County were recruited to supplement the Ju'an Army.

At the same time, in order to hurry, Liu Ji ordered the soldiers of the Guards Battalion and the two infantry battalions of Gao Shun and Xu Rong to rush to Xuju County on horseback.

However, in order to prevent another attack on the General's Mansion, Liu Ji asked Liu Meng, Tai Shici, Gan Ning, and Xu Chu, four top military generals, with a thousand foot soldiers of the guard battalion, to stay in Chengyin City to protect their women.

The 20,000 Gaochang cavalry from Zhuqiguo were captured nearly 20,000 alive, and Liu Ji also captured more than 1,000 Gaochang cavalry before, and Liu Ji did not let go of these Gaochang captives, and forcibly incorporated the ordinary cavalry among them, and the officers above the centurion, except for the regimental commander Muhimemini, were all executed by Liu Ji.

Liu Ji saw the side of the Gao Changguo officers who were about to be executed, no one's force value could reach the level of top generals, and the only army commander Muhemini who was not executed, the force value was only 82 points, which was already the highest, and Liu Ji was only interested in top generals now.

These officers of Gaochangguo died very miserably, because ordinary Gaochang cavalry wanted to join the Jue'an army, and they had to stab their original officials with knives, more than 200 officers of Gaochangguo, on average, each of them was stabbed almost 200 times, and basically every Gaochangguo officer was stabbed in the chest.

Of course, the allegiance letter created by Liu Ji, the ordinary Gaochang cavalry must also press their handprints and signatures, and the allegiance letters prepared for these ordinary Gaochang cavalrymen are different from those prepared for the grassland Hu people, and they are written with a passage that curses the king of Gaochang and the four great governors, as well as a passage insulting the fire god Wu Ra of the Holy Fire Sect.

Not all ordinary Gaochang cavalry were willing to stab their superiors and sign a letter of allegiance at the same time, and Liu Ji would not be polite to these stubborn ones, and all of them were executed together with the officers of Gaochang State.

In the end, Liu Ji immediately incorporated 20,000 Gaochang cavalry, in the face of death, most of the ordinary Gaochang cavalry chose to succumb, and there were only dozens of stubborn people, through this incident, Liu Ji found that the Holy Fire Sect was just like that, and the 20,000 Gaochang cavalry were all members of the Holy Fire Sect before, but they also signed the letter of allegiance.

On 15 November, the Guards Battalion and the two infantry battalions of Gao Shun and Xu Rong arrived in Xuju County, and by this time Liu Ji had already recruited 90,000 young men from among the 300,000 people in Xuju County.

Many young and strong men living in Xuju County were unwilling to join Liu Ji's Ju'an Army, but in order to deal with the powerful Gao Changguo, Liu Ji didn't care whether the young and strong men in Xuju County were willing or not, and they were all forcibly recruited, almost from house to house, so that 90,000 people could be recruited.

Liu Ji mixed the 48,000 cavalry of the eight cavalry battalions, the 20,000 Gaochang cavalry who joined the Jue'an Army, and the cavalry of more than 3,000 original Suju countries, and more than 12,000 young and strong men from Xuju County who could ride horses, and mixed them with each other, and the previous eight cavalry battalions were still 6,000 people, but after the mixing, six new cavalry battalions were formed, and the strength was also 6,000.

The captains of these six cavalry battalions were all selected by Liu Ji from the guards battalion, namely Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Du Ning, Xiao Feng, He Ruobi and Li Wenzhong, and at the same time, from the previous eight cavalry battalions, six military generals who served as captains were transferred to join the new six cavalry battalions to assist Yan Liang and other six new captains.

Nearly 4,000 infantry from the original Suju Kingdom, as well as more than 78,000 young and strong men from Suju County, and more than 800 soldiers of the Wei State, were reorganized by Liu Ji into ten new infantry battalions, each with a strength of more than 8,000 people, which was equivalent to the strength of the original infantry battalion.

The captains of the ten new infantry battalions were also drawn from the guard battalion by Liu Ji, namely Qiu Rui, Yu Tai, Deng Yu, Wu Han, Jia Fu, Kou Sui, Zhu You, Du Mao, Jing Dan, Geng Chun, the last eight are all first-class generals summoned by Liu Ji in Lanbao City, and they are the characters in the 28 generals of Yuntai in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

These ten new infantry battalions did not send other generals to assist the ten new lieutenants, but each of them had more than 80 Wei soldiers under his command to serve as the backbone, and Liu Ji hoped that in time, these ten infantry battalions could conjure him 80,000 Wei soldiers.

Under Liu Ji's expansion at all costs, in a short period of time, Liu Ji gathered a guard battalion, 14 cavalry battalions, and 12 infantry battalions in Suju County, and the total strength swelled to 190,000.
