500,000 troops gathered, banners covered the sky, and hundreds of famous generals of the Han Empire commanded 500,000 troops to march! Under this group of famous generals, there are thousands of middle and low-level generals or officers who are on an expedition to the main city in the west!

Chutian took all the elites, leaving 50,000 low-level soldiers and horses to defend the city.

Chu Tian's own legion has more than 20,000 high-level troops, more than 2,000 Goryeo servants, and 30,000 low-level troops as cannon fodder and baggage teams.

Among the 500,000 expeditionary forces of the Han Empire, there were 300,000 elites and 200,000 low-level troops. The significance of the existence of low-level troops is to transport food, siege cannon fodder, build fortifications, and saddle before and after horses.

Among the expeditionary force, there were thousands of doctors and military craftsmen, and Chu Tian also brought Zu Chongzhi and the guide car to ensure that there was no deviation in the direction of the expedition. Otherwise, the 500,000 expeditionary force stabbed into the hinterland of other civilizations, it is estimated that it will cause other civilizations to explode directly.

Not many civilizations could withstand the Han Empire's expeditionary force of half a million.

Chu Tian had a map in his hand, which was a rough map provided by the system. Theoretically, as long as there was no mistake in the direction, the expeditionary force of 500,000 could reach the main city in the west in time and without error.

Human wisdom is sometimes infinite, and in the Age of Discovery, the map was even more sketchy than that, but navigators relied on theory and experience to explore a shipping route between the eastern and western hemispheres.

"If you encounter a city of another civilization on the way, if it is a hostile civilization, you will directly attack it. If it is a strong neutral civilization and let them cede the city to us as a supply depot for our advance into the main city in the west, we will solve the problem in a 'friendly' way. If it's a weak neutral civilization, destroy them directly. ”

Chutian discussed with a group of Eastern Han princes to establish a supply line between the current territory of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the main city in the west, and needed to capture the cities along the way.

These cities may belong to different civilizations. Against different civilizations, Chu Tian also had different strategies.

Enemy, hit directly; A strong neutral civilization that greets them in advance to get them to avoid; Weak neutral civilizations will be bullied by powerful civilizations anyway, so they can be fought directly.

Joan of Arc held the red dragon flag, which symbolized Chutian's power, and followed Chutian's side. She can hold the battle flag with one hand, and her own strength is not small.

She was forced to change from the spiritual symbol of France to the symbol of Chutian's army, and her heart was difficult to understand. Even the French don't think she's a hero of France anymore.

Dian Wei became Chutian's bodyguard. Chutian did not have an eighth-level infantry battalion, so he had not yet recruited the Tiger Guards for Dian Wei. But it's not a big problem, Chu Tian has recruited a group of gold-level reckless men to act as personal guards, which is no worse than high-level troops.

Or, the Tiger Guards and other Praetorian Guards, their own sources are a group of high-armed generals. These generals do not have the talent to command the army, but they are just right to serve as guards.

"Pang Juan, you and Li Ling commander Wei Wushu and 15,000 low-level soldiers and horses to protect the baggage team. Guo Jia, you serve as a military advisor. ”

"Liang Hongyu, you continue to command the Shooting Battalion, and another low-level crossbowmen of 5,000 people."

"Five thousand low-rank foot soldiers were transferred to Le Yi's troops. Xu Rong, Xiahou Yuan, and Xiahou Yuan temporarily commanded 5,000 low-rank light cavalry. ”

Chu Tian divided the 30,000 low-level troops into various generals.

"Joan of Arc, you command more than 2,000 Goryeo servants, don't care about their lives or deaths."

Chutian handed over the captured Goryeo soldiers to the commander of Joan of Arc.

Chu Tian's oppression of the servant army was too ruthless, and the servant army captured in the last war was squandered by Chu Tian in all the campaigns. In this national war, Chutian finally replenished the servant legion.

Joan of Arc felt a chill in her heart, and it was estimated that Chutian was going to oppress her again.

"Your status is much higher than theirs, as long as you provide them with bonuses. The meaning of their existence is cannon fodder. ”

Chu Tian's words made Joan of Arc feel a little better.

Chu Tian didn't mean to sacrifice her, but Joan of Arc had the ability to have a faith bonus similar to that of the Arab Empire, which could make the servant legions go forward as if they were dead. There is no hero better suited to be the commander of the Servant Legion than Joan of Arc, because the Servant Legion is positioned as cannon fodder.

With an army of 50,000, Chutian owned three cities, accounting for one-tenth of the strength of the Han Empire's expeditionary force, and was one of the main forces of the Han Empire.

The strength of the other princes is not bad at all!

Lao Qin divided the fifteen princes into three roads, with five princes and more than 100,000 soldiers and horses on each road, and divided the troops to cooperate with each other.

After all, 500,000 troops are too much, and it is impossible to march along a single road, otherwise just the queue can stretch for dozens or even hundreds of miles.

As long as the enemy cut off the ranks with a cavalry, it is likely that the Han Empire's large army will have to fight on its own.

Therefore, sometimes it seems undesirable to divide the troops and advance together, and it is impossible for all the troops to be crowded together.

However, the three lines of soldiers and horses are not far apart, and scouts are widely distributed and information is transmitted, and there is an endless stream, and the enemy wants to break through each one, which is extremely difficult. After all, this time it's about fighting for civilization. Capturing a main city is good for the future of the entire civilization!

Whether it is for their own interests or for the interests of civilization, it is necessary for the princes of the Eastern Han Dynasty to behave well and not drag their feet.

The three soldiers and horses are led by the three strongest princes of Chutian, Lao Qin, and Mingguan.

As for the general Yuan Shao, there are not many Inhuman princes who give him face. Now is no longer the time to crusade against Dong Zhuo, as the major princes develop and form their own prestige, Yuan Shao's status has greatly declined.

For example, Chutian has the characteristics of "Four Worlds and Three Dukes" and "Han Wu", dominates the three states, has extremely prosperous military achievements, and his prestige has long surpassed Yuan Shao. The old Qin coerced the Son of Heaven to order the unsubordinate, and he had his own characteristics, and his prestige was higher than that of Yuan Shao, otherwise the Xun family would not have sent a Xun Yu to invest in the old Qin.

The three-way soldiers and horses, Chutian, Lao Qin, and Mingguan, each selected the princes who had a better relationship with them and formed a road.

Chu Tian is leaving, Huo An, Xu Fengnian, Zhang Dao, and Mu Ke, the lord of the Southern Barbarians.

Chu Tian saved Huo An's life in the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the first epic battle, and asked the divine doctor Hua Tuo to treat Huo An, and he had a good relationship with Huo An. Huo An also sent nine precious Dawan horses to Chu Tian.

In order to make the Han Empire unified, the first person Chu Tian wanted to leave was Huo An.

The second is Xu Fengnian, who is a mutual market partner. He and Xu Fengnian only have a financial relationship, and they don't care.

However, Xu Fengnian, who provided Chutian with a large number of excellent war horses every year, helped Chutian a lot. Similarly, the salt, iron and grain provided by Chutian to Xu Fengnian were also crucial for Xu Fengnian to dominate Xiliang.

It can be said that both people cannot do without each other. Chutian is the second to leave Xu Fengnian.

The third person to go is the leader of Hanzhong.

For this choice, even Lao Qin and Ming Guan were a little surprised. They thought that Chu Tian would choose a Hebei overlord like Zhao Long or Hu Ma, but they didn't expect to choose Zhang Dao.

But soon Lao Qin came back to his senses. Zhang Dao spread the dojo in Hanzhong, and the people's hearts were extremely high, if Chutian had a good relationship with Zhang Dao, Zhang Dao would harass Lao Qin from time to time in the future, and it was Lao Qin who was uncomfortable. During the Second National War, Zhang Dao was besieged by the three major European lords, and it was Chutian who relieved him. Two people have the emotional foundation to build a cooperative relationship!

Chutian has gradually gotten rid of the state of youth and vigor, with the influence of summer coolness, especially after the birth of his eldest son, he is more sophisticated, he united with Xiliang Xu Fengnian and Hanzhong Zhang Dao to form an encirclement of Guanzhong.

In order to make Chu Tian uncomfortable, he chose to bring Tang and Zhao Long.

Two people form a fence against each other.

Lao Qin and Mingguan divided the princes among each other.

There were not many options left for Chu Tian, and the fourth choice of the princes of Chu Tian was Mu Ke, the lord of the Southern Barbarians.

This is a female prince, yes, one hundred percent female princes, not women's princes.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, because of the problem of cultural soil, female princes were rare. Unlike in Europe, women also have the right to inherit titles. Perhaps the Eastern Han Dynasty also had capable female lords, but they were often behind the scenes, indirectly affecting the entire power, such as cool summer. The power of the pillow wind is very powerful.

In Nanban, there is a tradition of female toast, so the only remaining female prince of the Eastern Han Dynasty was born.

Neither Lao Qin nor Ming Guan chose her, because both of them valued the strength of their companions. The princes of the Southern Barbarians don't seem to be strong, and everyone hasn't heard much of Mu Ke.

If it weren't for the fact that a prince with a population of more than one million had to participate in a national war, few people would pay attention to this female prince.

But Chu Tian believes that the princes who can dominate the Southern Barbarian Region are not good at it, and their strength may not be as weak as imagined.

Mu Ke brought fifty war elephants. Although the number of war elephants is small, they can work wonders when used well.

"I will not live up to your trust, you are the first prince of the Eastern Han Dynasty, I am not as good as you, but in the national war, I will do my best."

Mu Ke is not a beauty, and she still has a little freckles on her face, but she has the style of a woman.

Lao Qin and Mingguan didn't look down on her strength, but Chu Tian chose her, so he was very grateful to Chu Tian.

Death for a confidant.

"Just do your best."

Chu Tian muttered in his heart, Lao Qin chose Tang, Zhao Long, Yuan Shao, and Liu Bei. Mingguan selected Huma, Liu An, and Tian Qi, leaving only one Nanban and one Tibetan prince. Chu Tian didn't know any of them, so he chose the princes of the Southern Barbarians. Since they don't know each other, choose one from among the Nanban and Tubo princes, then choosing a girl is better than a fierce man.

This is Chu Tian's thoughts, and it is very real.

Mu Ke didn't know Chu Tian's true thoughts, and was full of gratitude to Chu Tian and became the follower of the first prince.

Chu Tian didn't consider Mu Ke's feelings, the main forces of his soldiers and horses were himself, Huo An, and Xu Fengnian. Xu Fengnian's Longxi County has hidden many generals, and Chu Tian thinks that Xu Fengnian dares to confront Lao Qin, it is not as simple as it seems, after all, Longxi County was occupied by the lords of Longxi very early.

Zhang Dao also has his own special ability, that is, to explode troops quickly. In the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, there was no prince's ability to explode troops comparable to Zhang Dao. As long as Zhang Dao is willing, he can transform the strong men of the whole city into a peasant rebel army.

In addition, the combat effectiveness can at least frighten the enemy in terms of numbers.

The heavenly incense array penetrates Chang'an, and the city is full of golden armor!

Any civilization will be terrified when it sees the peasant rebels scattered all over the mountains!

In addition to elephant soldiers, Mu Ke's Nanban Legion also has special types of troops such as rattan armor soldiers and toast wolf soldiers, which may not be weak.

If he is really weak, Mu Ke is not qualified to participate in this national war.

"Let's go!"

The 500,000 Han troops marched in batches to the Gobi in the north, with an estimated march of 100 li, and then 500 li to the east, which could reach the main city in the west!

The army of 500,000 is extremely huge, there is no end in sight, the iron armor is dignified, and the banner is hunting!

Chu Tian personally commanded the four route princes, including himself, a total of five route princes, and became the commander of the Eastern Route Army. Lao Qin served as the commander of the Middle Route Army. Ming Guan served as the commander of the Western Route Army.

The three-way Han army, take care of each other!

The black warhawk landed on Joan of Arc's shoulder, and she seemed to be very fond of Mulan's warhawk. The war eagle, who usually ignores Chu Tian, also felt the affinity of Joan of Arc.

If it weren't for the fact that these war eagles could be used for reconnaissance, Chu Tian swore that he would definitely roast these war eagles and add a little cumin.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Xun You served as the masterminds of Chutian, and Lu Su and Cao Di also followed Chutian to practice.

"Whew~~"

Mi Fang, Wu Anguo, Lu Kuang, and Xing Daorong galloped in the Gobi, their blood boiling, and they couldn't wait to kill all the enemies in front of them.

Chu Tian frowned, he didn't know which one of the aliens Mi Fang had learned the bad habits, the wolf howled endlessly, and he also brought other generals with him.

The torrent formed by the three-way Han army came to the north.

To the north, there was a large neutral civilization, the sphere of influence of the Persian Empire.

The main army of more than 100,000 Persians began to assemble, and after they heard that the Han Empire, which was the largest in the south, their faces turned pale.

The Persian Empire was considered a powerful civilization, but because it did not reach its peak, it was powerless in the face of the 500,000 expeditionary forces of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

"My words have made it very clear that you Persia are not the opponents of the Eastern Han Dynasty at all by virtue of your own strength, and you must unite the surrounding civilizations in order to increase the probability of winning the battle for the main city. Otherwise, you're hitting a stone with an egg! ”

Choi Jae-seon, the lord of Goryeo, took refuge in the Persian civilization.

At this time, the Persian Empire was the famous Parthian Empire (also known as the Sabbath Empire, the Second Persian Empire), and it could also recruit heroes of the First and Third Persian Empires, with more than 2,000 years of accumulation. If it weren't for the limited population, the Persian Empire could have been very strong.

Sitting on the throne is the first lord of Persia, the current commander of the Praetorian Guard of the Emperor of the Rest Empire, the game ID "Commander of the Undead Army", whose real name is Ardashir, looked at the eastern lord Choi Jae-sun who took refuge in him: "But our Persia is a mortal enemy of that civilization, and it is incompatible. ”

Choi Jae-sun was aggressive: "Interests, only interests are everything." Capturing the main city can accumulate advantages for civilization, and in the face of interests, all hatred can be put down. ”

Ardashir whispered to the other Persian lords before saying to Choi Jae-sun, "I have decided to send you to contact our mortal enemy. If you can persuade them, then act according to your plan. ”
