Objectively speaking, it is absolutely not enough to expand the 5,000 Rock Battalion.

Xu Shu's target of expanding the army by 5,000 men was obviously the result of fully taking care of the economic capacity of the territory, and the new troops were stationed in Beppu, and the strength of the main city and special territory remained practically unchanged. It will not be difficult to stabilize the situation in peacetime by maintaining the existing troops, but once something happens, the troops will be stretched thin.

Looking at the total strength alone, the existing troops of the Zhulu Army exceed 20,000, and when this expansion is completed, plus the guest army, the total strength will be about 30,000, and the scale of the army can be called huge, and no second territory can reach such a scale. The reason why I always feel that the number of troops is insufficient is purely because the three bases are opened at the same time, coupled with the newly opened Beppu front, 30,000 soldiers and soldiers are stationed in four places, and none of them can be called absolutely stable, so the troops are naturally tight.

It's something that can't be helped.

The economic base determines the investment in military spending, and at this stage, it is impossible to adopt more troops.

"That's it, recruit 5,000 Rock Battalion and 2,000 Cutting Jiao Battalion recruits." Fish is not wise, and the final word is set.

"In order to hide people's eyes, the Panshi battalion stationed in Beppu was sent from the main city, took the Jingzhou-Yangzhou line to the sea, and then took a boat to Wajima. Yuanzhi, you should hurry up the selection and dispatch of military officers and soldiers, the Beppu stronghold cannot be lost, and you can't establish an internal teleportation array to reinforce at any time, so you have to find a general who can take charge of it alone. ”

"My lord, I already have a favorite candidate, and I will report it separately later." Xu Shu said.

The fish is unwise, and his heart moves.

Xu Shu is the commander of the Zhulu Army he appointed, and the dispatch of territorial troops and generals has always been in charge of Xu Shu. Dispatched to the Japanese general, it stands to reason that Xu Shu can report directly, Xu Shu will not be unclear about the lord's style, but he proposed a separate report, it seems that there is another hidden secret, and the matter is probably not as simple as he imagined.

However, Yu Buzhi didn't say anything and nodded slightly.

"How much does it cost to recruit ......?"

Before the words fell, a wry smile appeared on Yi Feng's face, and beads of sweat were faintly oozing from his forehead.

He really has no money, but the conscription work is urgent, with the habit of being unwise, the conscription expenses must be borne by the main city, and this conscription is still carried out in Zhulu City, as a landlord, it is his responsibility, no matter how poor Yi Feng is, he can only take over the task head-on.

Yu Buzhi looked at Yi Feng and asked, "Deputy City Lord Yi, what's wrong with you?" ”

"No problem!" Yi Feng replied quickly.

The head can be broken, the blood can flow, and the momentum cannot be lost!

The pot that should be carried by yourself must be finished with tears in your eyes.

Yu Buzhi looked suspicious: "No problem? ”

"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will find a way to raise the cost of conscription." Yi Feng gritted his teeth.

Yi Feng has already let go, and plans to collect a few more months of advance payment from Ba Xiangqing and form the new conscription troops. As for where the fixed monthly military expenditure will come from after the formation of the troops, well, Yi Feng is now confused, so he has to take the car to the mountain and there must be a way to comfort himself.

Yu Buzhi muttered to himself: "It turns out that we have money, since this is the case, the money will not be used for the first time......"

"Ahh

Yi Feng suddenly thundered to the top.

After doing it for a long time, it turned out that Yu Buzhi didn't mean to force him to take out the money?

It doesn't seem right!

The Flying Fish Territory is largely self-financed, and basically no longer needs the main city to help, but it is by no means able to afford the huge expenses of expanding the army; As for the dragon leader, it is not possible to break even, let alone pay for the expansion of the army. The two special territories are in this situation, and if they don't pay for the main city, where will they get the money to recruit soldiers?

No matter what, Yu Buzhi didn't ask the main city for money, but he took the initiative to jump out and take care of everything, and Yi Feng's intestines were repentant. He wanted to take back that sentence, but just now he played the package ticket in front of everyone, and he retreated in a blink of an eye, Yi Feng couldn't pull off that face, and his face turned red for a while.

"Lord, lord, what's the matter?"

"What's going on?"

"Money, that money ......," Yi Feng stammered.

Yu Buzhi laughed dumbly, and couldn't bear to tease Yi Feng anymore.

"It's a good thing to be responsible, but if there are real difficulties, you have to mention it when you should mention it, and everyone will solve it together. The main city has been spending so much recently, and I don't know if I can afford to pay for conscription? ”

Yi Feng was both moved and ashamed, shouted "Lord", and was speechless.

Yu Buzhi waved his hand: "Don't hold on alone when you encounter difficulties in the future, I will find a way to recruit money this time." ”

"Will the money be secured?"

"I am now the Taishou of Ba County, the twelve counties of Ba County, and the reserve fund for the famous cities of each county is set at 100,000 gold, and all the money is withdrawn, not to mention the recruitment of thousands of people, and it is more than enough to expand the army by 10,000 people." Fish is not wise to understate.

Everyone looked at each other.

The reserve fund of the famous city is the retention of the famous city after paying taxes to the superior famous city, usually between 300,000 and 500,000 gold, which is mainly used to deal with emergency or special circumstances, such as disaster relief, banditry, additional taxes, etc. The standard of the reserve fund of the famous city is set by the state and county officials, and Yu Buzhi's request to adjust the reserve of the famous city to 100,000 gold is also within the scope of Taishou's authority, which is not exceeded.

However, if there is an unexpected situation in the famous city, the remaining reserves may not be able to solve the problem. If it seriously affects people's livelihood, it is likely to cause unrest and directly affect the good reputation of Yu Buzhi. The reason why it is unwise to follow the fish has a lot to do with the generosity and benevolence of this guy, such as the veteran Xu Shu, who is dedicated to his efforts to resist the rat tide.

The territory is indeed in need of money, but no one wants to see Yu Buzhi completely ignore the suffering of the people for the sake of money.

"I know what you're worried about," Yu Buzhi laughed, "Just one thing: the famous city of Ba County, we won't be under direct jurisdiction for too long. ”

Xu Shu and the others were dazzled.

That's right!

The famous city is a prerequisite for the player's power to move to a higher level, and if it weren't for the fact that the defenders of the famous city were too difficult, I am afraid it would have been carved up long ago. So far, only the Zhulu Leader and the World Legion have successfully occupied the famous city, but the other forces are not willing to be defeated, and there are even many forces that have joined forces to launch the famous city wheel war, in order to continuously challenge and kill the famous city troops, and create opportunities for their companions to take the famous city. As everyone becomes more and more aware of the famous city war, it is only a matter of time before the famous city falls.

After the player occupies the famous city, he enjoys the tax, military and other powers of the famous city, and of course, he also shoulders the responsibility of building and protecting the famous city. At that time, if there is any accident in the famous city, the player who occupies it will be responsible for solving it, and whether the reserve of the famous city is enough or not...... Is it the turn to worry about the Taishou Mansion?

Pit NPCs, most of the territorial elites have opinions; Pit players, that's no ideological baggage at all.

Since the players are responsible for the capture of the famous city, the reserve is less.

Even if there is a situation before the famous city is captured, and the reserve fund is insufficient, the Taishou Mansion will be responsible for the end, which is a small chance event and has nothing to do with the overall situation. All in all, the reserves of the famous city are not taken in vain.

The practice of digging up the corners of the famous city wall gave Xu Shu inspiration.

"Lord, the proportion of foreign war transfer of troops in the famous city is extremely low, and ninety percent of the garrison wastes public money, and it is difficult to make achievements. The Rock Battalion has a territorial bonus, and its strength is above that of a famous city, and it can accept recruitment at any time and is loyal and fearless. The subordinates thought that it would be better to reduce the size of the garrison of the famous city occupied by the territory, and the garrison of the two famous cities would be enough for 5,000 people, and the military expenditure of the famous city should be subsidized for the territory, and the military expenditure of the territory should be reduced......"

"What Yuan said is exactly what I want." Yu Buzhi readily agreed.

With the prestige of the Zhulu Army, even if there are only 5,000 garrisons in the famous city occupied, no one will take a risk. It's not that you won't have a chance to win the risk, but you will definitely suffer severe retaliation afterwards, and if you can't keep the famous city, it is estimated that you will have to take off a layer of skin, or even be killed directly.

The dust has settled on the expansion of the army, and Yu Buzhi directly moves on to the next topic.

"Which forces participated in the siege of Zhulu City last time, and who was the mastermind, can you find out?"

The atmosphere in the office suddenly became a little more solemn.
