The town militia under Shu Zifeng's command was a farmer who completely took up arms, and Shu Zifeng didn't even bother to manage their training, because he had to provide food if he intervened, and it was better to let these town militia live on half soldiers, half farmers and a small amount of local tax subsidies.

Shu Zifeng's real financial pressure mainly lies in the warrior battalion and the more than 3,000 conscription militia gathered, these people had to eat Shu Zifeng's food and drink Shu Zifeng's daily supplies before Shu Zifeng ordered to be sent home......

The reason why the local aristocratic class has so few troops under their command is not that they can't pull people, but that they don't have the money to support so many soldiers......

Pulling out the young and strong to serve as soldiers means that the production labor force will be reduced, and the output of materials and food will be further reduced, on the contrary, the more soldiers will be consumed, and the local nobles will naturally not be able to hold on for a long time, which is the reason why the peasants and soldiers are only recruited in wartime.

The European white aristocrats also knew the benefits of a professional army, but they were also very helpless if they had no money, until the central power of the European continent became more and more powerful, and a large amount of national wealth could be concentrated, so that they had the basis for the establishment of a professional standing army.

Ivan the Terrible in the history of the earth was the first to do this, using the country's financial resources to reform the military system and establish a professional army loyal to the country and loyal to him, so that he successively annexed the divided Mongol khanates, all the way to Siberia.

I have to say that the time point of Shu Zifeng's crossing is still good, at this time Ivan the Terrible is still young and has not really taken power, the Muscovy seems to be strong, but the internal core power layer is fighting for each other, the Duma Grand Council of Nobles controls most of the power on the periphery of the Muscovy, and there are regents in Moscow City who play with people's hearts, which is why the Grand Duke Yaroslav of the Muscovy will be so slow to react when he raises the flag of judgment.

After Shu Zifeng's troops were reorganized, they swelled to 5,000 people (including logistics people), of which more than 3,000 were cannon fodder conscription militiamen who had undergone simple training and were also very poorly equipped; More than 500 warrior battalions that have the appearance of regular troops and have experienced bloody battles; After being trained and replenished by Dehrim, the team jumped to 200 guards and muskets, and more than 100 people took the lead to the camp cannon fodder.

With so many people, Shu Zifeng naturally would not feed them for nothing, and more than 3,000 conscripted militiamen only carried out less than a week of military training, and were led by Shu Zifeng to drive out to the territory of the Grand Duke of Yaroslav, and other nobles and knight fiefdoms in Moscow City launched an attack.

At the same time, Grand Duke Yaroslav was not idle, he knew the strength of Muscovy better than Shu Zifeng, the two sides were stronger ants and elephants wrestling, Grand Duke Yaroslav had regretted agreeing to Shu Zifeng's crazy plan more than once in order to save his life, and even after Shu Zifeng took people out of Yaroslavl City, he secretly sent people to contact the Duma Council of Moscow City, trying to 'change the evil and return to the right'.

Of course, the Duma Council of Nobles, which was able to press the Grand Duke Yaroslav, an incapable guy, to the ground and rub and rub against it, hanged the Grand Duke Yaroslav's secret envoy directly in public......

The contempt of Moscow undoubtedly cornered Grand Duke Yaroroslav, and naturally, with the mentality that I am about to die, you will not be happy, under the orders of Grand Duke Yaroslav, Alibachi led the expanded Grand Duke's army to start a campaign against the small and medium-sized nobles who were originally subordinate to Grand Duke Yaroslav.

Unable to face the city of Moscow, Grand Duke Yaroslav could only vent his anger and hesitation on these small and medium-sized nobles who were supposed to accompany him 'to fight hard', and the betrayers were often more hated than the enemies.

In fact, Grand Duke Yaroslav also had a plan with Shu Zifeng about cleaning up the small and medium-sized nobles who defected to Moscow in the territory, and Grand Duke Yaroslav was in charge of the 'rebellious' nobles in the north, and Shu Zifeng was in charge of the 'enemy' nobles in the south.

The reason why Grand Duke Yaroslav chose the north is mainly because the city of Moscow is located in the south of Yaroslav City, and Grand Duke Yaroslav instinctively hopes that he will be as far away from Moscow City as possible out of fear of the power of Moscow City, and at the same time, he also has the careful idea of letting Shu Zifeng's forces establish a buffer zone between himself and Moscow City.

Of course, the idea of Grand Duke Yaroslav is nothing more than 'speculation', and the territory of Grand Duke Yaroslav is completely on the mainland of Muscovy, and it is the territory of Muscovy on all sides, and the buffer zone or something is purely comforting......

However, with the mentality of the city of Moscow to save trouble, it is really possible that the most elite army in Moscow will push all the way from the south of Yaroroslav City and purge Shuzifeng's sphere of influence first.

Only against an opponent of equal strength can it be called a war, and for Muscovy, the use of troops against Grand Duke Yaroslav is a counter-rebellion......

For the distribution plan of the Grand Duke Yaroslav, Shu Zifeng accepted it generously, he never planned to fight with the Muscovy, the southern territory is closer to Moscow City, but can be richer, for Shu Zifeng, who made a fortune by robbery, what reason is there not to accept?

As for the small problem of facing the elite army of Moscow City first, it is nothing in Shu Zifeng's eyes, he pulled out the main force and the elite soldiers of Moscow City to the death, which is called a military buffer zone, what if Shu Zifeng does not resist and make way?

Of course, Shu Zifeng would never tell the expected Grand Duke Yaroslav, and it was a good thing to let his ally have a certain illusion of security, at least Grand Duke Yaroslav could wholeheartedly encircle and suppress the rebel nobles in the north.

In the face of the troops of Grand Duke Yaroslav and Shuzifeng, those small and medium-sized nobles had no resistance, and it didn't take long for the small and medium-sized nobles who were already subordinate to Grand Duke Yaroslav to return to the arms of Grand Duke Yaroslav in pieces.

I don't know if it's because Shu Zifeng's reputation is too small, the rebel nobles in the south did not know the current affairs as well as the nobles in the north, and in the face of the little-known Shu Zifeng army, the rebel nobles in the south actually tangled up a coalition of small and medium-sized nobles again, trying to resist!

What makes Shu Zifeng feel most amused is that the strength they gathered together is not as good as the troops led by Baron Jamai at the beginning, and such a noble coalition army with poor strength still confronts Shu Zifeng's main force head-on, and the outcome is self-evident......
