Chapter 422: A Brief Silence
readx;
Yi Zhengqi's meeting with the Great Wind Emperor was not so simple. No matter what www.biquge.info said, even the security issues of both sides are enough headaches for both sides. The Gale Emperor naturally wants to put up a shelf, does he want the Gale Emperor to come to the horse herding province in person to see Yi Zhengqi. This is impossible, it is a matter of the face of the Gale Empire, and the Gale Emperor can't even go out to greet him.
The two sides are not in the same position at all. Corporal Lixian didn't have any effect on the Gale Emperor at all. And Yi Zhengqi also thinks so, he is now a self-established king, no matter how young he is, he can be regarded as a king of Dongmu, and it is naturally inappropriate to go to see the Emperor of the Great Wind by himself, in fact, this is not the main reason.
It's the same for Yi Zhengqi's character to visit the fish stall at the corner of the street, he is most worried about his own life. The Emperor of the Great Wind has always had the intention of recruiting him, but Yi Zheng ignored him and still did it alone. No matter how polite the Emperor of the Great Wind was at this meeting, no matter how good it was, it was nothing more than that he took a fancy to Chao Gejun and Yi Zhengqi himself.
If Yi Zhengqi didn't agree to die for the Great Wind Emperor, then what would the Great Wind Emperor do? This is not child's play, the attitude of the Emperor of the Great Wind is clear, what he wants is the whole world. Now Yi Zhengqi jumped out with Chao Gejun to compete with him, and he was useless. Since it is easy to levie its way, it is just a knife to cut. Anything that stands in the way of the Wind Emperor will be removed without mercy.
Yi Zheng was conceited in his martial arts, but he couldn't break out of the encirclement of the Gale Emperor. In the same way, the Gale Emperor also had such worries. If the Gale Emperor leaves his base camp, he will also be worried about his life. Who knows what this group of outlaws will do. The Emperor of the Great Wind dared to go to the camp of the Chaoge Army. Although I don't know what the martial arts of the Great Wind Emperor are, there must be top masters around the Great Wind Emperor.
Even if the Gale Emperor didn't worry about his life, if he was chased and killed by the Chaoge Army, and the Gale Emperor needed to escape, it would be enough to make the Gale Emperor lose face.
Therefore, the question of where to meet dragged on for a month or two.
The negotiations between the two sides had never been heard, so much so that each took a step back. Basically, Yi Zhengqi and Antares were negotiating: "According to the usual practice, we will set up a small black house to meet on the border of Muma Province and Tielik Province. If you have something, you can talk about it there. ”
Antares naturally came on behalf of the Gale Emperor, and she didn't mean to beat around the bush when she spoke, and said directly: "The strength of your Chaoge Army is less than one percent of that of my Gale Emperor, and the land is not even one percent of that of my Gale Empire. No matter how you look at it, you are just projectiles, and now my emperor is seeing you exceptionally, which is already a great gift. You don't feel the grace of God, but you still have a lot of unreasonable demands here. ”
Yi Zhengqi understood when he heard it. He himself has been thinking about how to control the balance in meeting with the Emperor of the Great Wind, and even went to consult a famous diplomat. But these things ignore the most fundamental factors. That is the strength of the Chaoge Army, if it weren't for Xuanyuan XIV's rebellion now, the Great Wind Emperor probably wouldn't need to talk to Yi Zhengqi more than half a word of nonsense.
Yi Zhengqi said good words to Antares, patted his chest and said that he would definitely go to see the Emperor of the Great Wind. Antares half-convinced and coaxed away.
From that day on, Yi Zheng began to work on his army again. At once, he besieged the province of the horse herding with iron barrels, and no one was allowed to enter or leave at all. In terms of recruiting new soldiers, Yi Zheng has relaxed its policy, which is almost the most common standard for recruits.
Today's Muma Province and the Eastern Great Wilderness Grass Sea, except for civilians, are soldiers. Yi Zhengqi suddenly expanded the Chaoge army to 350,000. Yi Zhengqi was not satisfied, and began to follow the old routine again, allowing the candidate soldiers to join the United Chamber of Commerce first. This also means that you can become a song army.
Yi Zhengqi knew that 10,000 Chaoge troops were also Chaoge troops, and 1 million Chaoge troops were also Chaoge troops. Therefore, the requirements for joining the Chaoge Army are also very low, they only need to be fed. There is no mention of any mention of military pay at all.
Yi Zhengqi has been an officer for so long, and it is the first time he has encountered such a good thing. He simply directly expanded the Chaoge army to nearly 500,000.
The province of herding horses and the pastures of the East Great Wilderness have become the most critical and important resource hubs.
Why was Yi Zhengqi able to recruit 500,000 Chaoge troops in such a short period of time, are they not afraid of death, and dare to follow Yi Zhengqi to rebel against the Imperial Family of the Far East. Two meals can make everyone work for him.
In fact, Yi Zheng has adopted a policy of both soft and hard.
At the border of Muma Province, Yi Zhengqi sent the Chaoge Army to guard it, and all official roads and checkpoints were heavily guarded, and these did not need training anyway. These two things happen to be done at the same time. Regardless of whether it is a merchant, a civilian, or an orc, all those who enter the province of Horse Husbandry need to go through various inspections and charge various fees. This suddenly became one of the main means of collecting money for the Chaoge army.
In particular, the main route between the province of Muma and the East Great Wilderness Ranch. Yi Zhengqi set the strictest regulations here, even the extremely rich Antares, she took the army twice and jumped up in pain: "This bastard Yi Zhengqi, is he poor and crazy." ”
These fees are charged on a per capita basis. There are also endless items of various fees, the most important ones are security fees, scenic spot fees, and road maintenance fees, please note that road maintenance fees are completely different from the urban road construction fees behind.
When there were so many miscellaneous expenses that they were dazzled, many of the Chaoge soldiers who were guarding the checkpoint said directly: "When you enter the province of herding horses, one hundred gold coins per person." Two hundred gold coins per person out of the province of herding horses. ”
This sentence is to change the name and charge again when leading to the East Great Wilderness Ranch. Among these huge fees, only his own people are free. In order to be able to pass smoothly, almost all civilians know that once they want to do some business, they will join the Chaoge Army first.
There are some local tyrants who don't join the Chaoge Army and have a temper, and they have become crying without tears when they see the dense charge sheets: "You said that I will admit this Xia Sangju detoxification to prevent plague infection special care fee, after all, I spent money to drink a cup of herbal tea, I can understand it, but what is your fuel surcharge." Why charge three gold coins. ”
"Hey, I'm sorry. This one is written incorrectly. ”
Yi Zhengqi took advantage of this relationship that was not embarrassing or embarrassing to develop wantonly. Even Antares has a headache for such a solution. Now that the Gale Empire and the Chaoge Army are on good terms, Yi Zhengqi also said that he was going to see the Gale Emperor. Antares is also not good at the opposite directly. Once and again, Antares didn't bother to pass. This kind of charging method can't even Antares eat.
She personally led the troops on two trips, and then sent two messengers. No matter how much Yi Zheng sucks blood, it will only be a few hundred gold coins, and it will be a big deal to lose two messengers over there. Anyway, Yi Zhengqi's answer is exactly the same every time.
Yi Zhengqi took advantage of such an embarrassing day and worked hard to develop. It was not until October 557 that the Asagaku army finally entered a different state. Among the 500,000 Chaoge troops, nearly 30,000 elite soldiers were selected. He ordered Ren Wu to arrest these 30,000 elite soldiers, and it was inevitable that these 30,000 elite soldiers would be integrated into the 10,000 special forces. Ren Wuzhi did not disappoint Yi Zhengqi, the original 10,000 special forces were the existence of instructors.
Although there was a certain amount of loss in the decisive battle with the Second Snow Division, this loss was surprisingly small. Even if it has never appeared in history, even Yi Zhengqi is very surprised. Originally, this special forces force was already used as a vanguard, and the sacrifice would be particularly large, but it was not so.
This time, the selection of new special forces means that there are already 40,000 special forces in the Chaoge army.
The vigorous development of the Chaoge Army made everyone's eyes red, and the always ambitious Imperial Forest Army began to break away from the control of the imperial family again. He's already done it once, and it's not news to do it a second time.
After a few months of waiting, Mu Huatu suddenly pulled the Imperial Forest Army back to the province of Tulbo. His meaning is obvious: Chao Gejun is making trouble like this, Kayun XVI and the eldest prince don't care, and Lao Tzu will simply become the emperor of the soil. In fact, it was not that Cayun XVI didn't care, he asked for troops many times, and the eldest prince also sent troops over, but since the Second Snow Division was destroyed, there was no decent team to fight.
Even if there were, the Gale Empire deliberately wanted to give the Chaoge army room for development, and once they saw that there was an extreme eastern army that wanted to march into the province of Muma, the beast soldiers would immediately intercept it. This interception did not really start, but the two sides were about to retreat as soon as they pressed their positions.
In this way, the local provinces began to do their own thing. They are all worried about their own affairs. Chao Gejun wants to develop, and there is nothing special about the Far Eastern Empire, anyway, the whole body is festering, and it has to be repaired everywhere. The Gale Empire is busy dealing with racial issues, as well as having a relationship with the Asaga Army.
And what about the province of Tulbo. Mu Huatu's biggest difficulty is not that he is worried that the Far Eastern Empire will send troops to attack, but that he has a headache all day long.
The busiest should be the diplomats of the Wahlan Empire. Every place needs to run. Even the Wahlan Empire created the most cost-effective order of visits.
The Far Eastern Empire, the Gale Empire, the Wahlan Empire, as well as the Horse Husbandry Province and the Turbo Province of Muhuatu, there are so many people who can compete for the world at once. Everywhere they went, the civilians were on the lookout.
It seems that each has its own advantages, and each of them has an irreplaceable position. This mutual restraint lasted only a month, and it completely collapsed after a shocking outbreak in the Hidden Capital.
