Chapter 111: Jing Chu Yongcai
In the Prime Minister's mansion, a group of generals are deliberating.
"Lord, I have found an area on the mountain west of Xiancheng to place the brute beasts that the lord brought back from Liangzhou."
Yang Ping said.
Yang Xian nodded, there weren't many brute beasts he brought back from the wasteland, but they were all huge and couldn't be domesticated in the city at all. Helpless, Yang Xian could only let Yang Ping find a piece of land in the deep mountains west of Xiancheng and place these brute beasts.
Yizhou has a population of more than 4 million, and Yang Xian's troops are now almost nearly 100,000. The ratio of soldiers to civilians is very low, and even among the thirteen states in the world, it can be regarded as a unique existence.
At this moment, the war in the world is not ending, and the princes everywhere are reckless. Regardless of Wu Chuyan Liang, the ratio of soldiers to civilians is very high, especially in Liangzhou. In Liangzhou, almost one out of ten people can find a soldier.
Liangzhou was poor, and after forming an alliance with Shu, it could communicate with each other through Longdao. Liangzhou gave Yizhou special products such as furs and horses, and Yizhou exchanged them with grain, lacquer, brocade and other materials.
"Young master, I heard that Huan Wu's kid has been looking for Zhu Zi's bad luck recently."
Yang Chun touched his beard and said with a smile.
Since Liangzhou formed an alliance with Shu, the Liang army has been aggressive on the border of Liangzhou. Especially after Huan Wu learned that the tide of wild beasts was no longer the same as in the previous year, and posed a threat to Liangzhou, he kept making small moves in private.
"There are many military leaders in the Liangzhou Army, and they are the general of the chariot cavalry, and sometimes it is not easy to manage."
It was Qin Feng who spoke, now the cavalry captain of Shu Kingdom. As for the situation inside Liangzhou, no one present knew better than him.
When Qin Feng said this, he didn't say any more. After all, Zhu Zi used to be his father-in-law, and now that he has changed his court, it is naturally not easy to speak ill of his former owner.
However, everyone present understood that Yang Xian's recent information showed that Huan Biao, the general of the expedition to the west under Huan Wu, who was guarding Haojing, and his staff had been in frequent contact with some small army leaders in Liangzhou in recent days.
Liangzhou is poor, but Huan Wu is wealthy. If he wanted to use some means, those little army leaders would easily change their ways.
With the current situation in Liangzhou, the tide of brute beasts outside the Yang Jue Pass can no longer pose a threat, and Shu has also formed an alliance with Zhu Zi, and the only remaining threat is from the direction of Yongzhou.
"I'm afraid that the discord plan is only the first step of Huan Wu, but it is also the most insignificant step." Yang Chun touched his beard and said slowly, "The situation in Liangzhou is complicated, and there are too many flaws inside. Huan Wu just doesn't need to be hard, just grinding is enough to give Zhu Zi a headache. ”
After all, the Liang army had just been defeated, and it was obviously inappropriate to make a big move. Those who come to Yin can not only save a lot of military spending, but also give Zhu Zi eye medicine, why not do Huan Wu.
Huan Wu controlled the seven states of the Central Plains, and won the land of the world, with tens of millions of people and millions of troops under his command. Not counting some county soldiers and county soldiers with low combat strength who are stationed in the prefectures and counties, just in the vicinity of the Shendu, Huan Wu can use 300,000 mobile troops. There are 80,000 troops stationed on the border of Yan, 130,000 troops on the border of Chu, and 100,000 troops on the border of Wu. The Yiliang border is even more crowded, Huan Wu has just allocated 100,000 troops to Huan Biao from his direct legions, and the army in Yongzhou has increased to 250,000 at once.
You must know that these four major legions plus the 300,000 army directly under Huan Wu are not comparable to those county soldiers with low combat effectiveness. The generals of all armies are all descendants of the same line in the army, and their composition is complex, but their combat effectiveness is not low at all.
Huan Wu has so many armies in his hands that he has not yet dominated the world. One is the lack of cavalry in the army, and the lack of mobile troops. The second is not good at water masters, in the complicated land of the Wuchu water system, it is not that the more people, the better. The three princes of Wu Chuyan and Liang all struggled from that turbulent era, and which one was good. The most important thing is that Huan Wu has been guarding against the monk sects all over the Central Plains.
More than thirty years ago, the matter of Yuan Cheng, the heir of the star lineage, Huan Wu didn't want to watch it repeat itself under his eyes.
Yuan Cheng's talent in the sky dominated the stars and one vein, and then let everyone in the world see how terrible it would be for these monks of idle clouds and wild cranes to unite.
Fortunately, at present, the star vein is declining, and the mountain vein is the most powerful, but the mountain is also the most, and the remaining magic vein is not as much as the door of the mountain vein, but the strength is far less than the mountain vein, and its sect giant Shenxiao faction has recently competed with the Demon Pole Sect in Liangzhou for the problem of Taoism.
For these monk sects, Huan Wu both pulled and fought, and gathered a lot of advanced monks under his command. As for the giants of the two sects of mountain arts, they didn't pay attention to Huan Wu's solicitation at all.
Huan Wu can't afford to provoke them, and it's a big deal to provoke people. These sect giants all have their own unique realms, and even if Huan Wu sends troops to attack, he won't be able to please anything.
The Liang army attacked Shu for the first time, and although Huan Wu was defeated and lost face, he did not break his muscles and bones. And now, although there are 100,000 troops in Yizhou, there are many new soldiers, and Yang Xian has no power to counterattack.
Yang Xian looked at Tong Gu who was cowering in the corner, he was usually a talker, but now he didn't say a word.
"Tong Gu! How's it going with the recruits I let you train? ”
The Tong Gu hesitated, holding his breath on his face, and finally walked out and complained.
"Lord! It's not that my old Tong doesn't do his best, it's just that the soldiers in Yizhou are too weak. Pulling the bow is the heaviest arm strength, Lao Tong, I have been in this military camp for so many days, and I have gathered hundreds of recruits who can pull the three-stone bow, not to mention training, it is difficult to make one. How much time does it take to work hard step by step? ”
"Lao Tong! Do you think the general is so good? ”
Yang An usually has a good relationship with Tong Gu, but he laughed at the moment, and then caused a lot of laughter.
Tong Gu's face turned red and argued: "If you want me to say, this Yizhou soldier is not suitable for drawing a bow and making a crossbow." ”
Yang Xian nodded, Yizhou's weak soldiers are a fact. At least, compared with other states, Yizhou has almost no war and has been comfortable for a long time.
"Where are all the good shooters in the world?"
Lao Tong cocked his thumb and said, "Of course, it must belong to Jing Chu Yongcai." To say that when Lao Tong was a lieutenant in Qingshui County, even if it was a rookie egg, everyone could pull a three-stone bow, and some could even pull a nine-stone bow. ”
Jingzhou now belongs to the state of Chu, which is the territory of Chu Hou Caitong!
Yang Xian waved his hand, beckoned Tong Gu over, and whispered in his ear.
"You can go to him and dig people!"
Tong Gu's eyes lit up. In this world, there is nothing that makes Tong Gu happier than going to Cai Tong.
