Since the Demon Clan invaded the Land of the River, except for the first big battle, they have changed their strategy from a frontal attack to a small-scale raid war.

And for nearly a year, the battle reports from the front have been sent to Shenwu City every day, before the imperial case of Huan Qi.

But the more I look at this battle report, the more unpleasant Huan Qi's heart is.

Yang Chun, as the great master of the army, single-handedly controls everything in the Zhou army. But after his death, the combat strength of the Zhou army did not decline as expected by Liang Ting's high-level leaders.

After Yang Xian took over all this, the combat power of the Zhou army grew more and more.

After the first battle of Huangcheng, 100,000 Zhou troops swept through the land of Hehuang and obtained countless large and small baggage. And Luo Wuyi has recovered a lot of demons and barbarians, including many big demons, and it is said that there are seven or eight giant spirits alone.

The strength of the Zhou army is getting stronger and stronger, and there are no opponents who dare to challenge them in the land of Hehuang. Even the barbarian king Hao Wei only dared to hide north of the big river and make some small moves.

But fortunately, at the same time, Liang's strength is also growing. After all, Da Liang controls the land of the six states, and his resilience is far greater than that of Da Zhou.

Moreover, the strategic pressure of the Liang army in the south is very small, the demon clan in the north has not made much move, and the sea clan in the East China Sea is still fragmented, and the most critical is the Zhou army in the west.

"Are you saying that Yang Xian transferred Yang Ping to Yongzhou to take charge of the Changce Army?"

The sheep knelt before the throne of Huan Qi. Since the collapse of the Shenji Guard and the Inner Guard, Liang Ting split part of the Xie Niu Guard in order to rebuild the intelligence and monk guard system.

Splitting Niu Wei and weakening the influence of the Yang clan is what the Huan clan is willing to see. However, for Huan Qi, the Yang clan is still very important.

"Yes, Yang Ping has been transferred from Liangzhou to Yongzhou and is in charge of the Changce Army!"

"Has the situation in Liangzhou stabilized?"

Huan Qi muttered. He knows Yang Ping's ability very well, that is, Huan Wu is good at guarding what he once said, and it is difficult to deal with.

After Yang Xian captured Liangzhou, he left Yang Ping there and set up a 50,000 Anji army to stabilize the situation in Liangzhou.

The situation in Liangzhou was very complicated, although it was pacified by the Zhou army, there were still many military leaders. And now, Yang Xian has transferred Yang Ping back to Yongzhou, there is only one possibility, the situation in Liangzhou has been smooth.

This is not good news for Huan Qi!

The lack of intelligence force made Huan Qi very unclear about the internal situation of the Great Zhou, but he also knew that once Yang Xian leveled the military leader of Liangzhou, it would be of considerable help to the Zhou army.

There are only one million people in Liangzhou, of course, this does not include the surrounding barbarians and Yi tribes, but the soldiers of Liangzhou are the best soldiers in the world.

And as the Demon Emperor retreated, swearing that he would never set foot in Yang Jue Pass again in this life, Zhaofu City was once again controlled by Zhou Jun. As soon as the trade route opened, a large amount of materials and financial resources would be provided to the Zhou army.

The most important thing is that if the situation in Liangzhou is stable, 50,000 Anji troops can move north from Liangzhou and enter the land of Hehuang, thus completely changing the situation in the land of Hehuang.

You must know that the members of these 50,000 Anji Army are not recruits, but all veterans of a hundred battles who followed Zhu Zi and Qin Yuan to guard the Yang Pass!

"Yang Ping was transferred to Yongzhou to take charge of the Changce Army, so who is the commander of the Anji Army?"

For this question, Huan Qi is very eager to know.

"Yang Xian promoted Di Sheng, the general of the Yingyang Army, to general and made him the commander of the Anji Army."

"Is this a traitor?" Huan Qi talked about Di Shenglai, and he also hated it. Of course, this is the common attitude of the Huan clan. At the beginning of the first battle of Southern Zhou, if it weren't for Di Sheng's rebellion against Jiang Zhou and other generals, which led to the complete rout of the Liang army, the general of the Liang army, Huan Biao, would not have died in southern Zhou.

"betrayed us, Yang Xian is really kind to him!"

You must know that the commanders of several soldiers and horses of the Zhou army are either Yang Ping, Yang An and other Yang cronies, or Qin Feng, Jin Xin, Han Bucheng and other battlefield generals, or peerless talents such as Tong Gu.

And Di Sheng, as a rebel general of the Liang army, can become the seventh general of the Zhou army, and his ability is still secondary, I have to say that Yang Xian trusts him.

Holding back the uneasiness in his heart for a while, Huan Qi asked, "Is it related to the expansion of the upper rhino cavalry mentioned by Yang Jian in the song?" ”

"Your Majesty. The rebel Yang Xian's Xiliang Iron Cavalry, except for the 10,000 cavalry led by Qin Feng, was stationed in the land of Hehuang and followed Yang Xian. The rest were organized by Yang Xian into five cavalry armies, commanded by several cavalry generals in Liangzhou, and stationed near Haojing. The five cavalry troops only obeyed Yang Xian's orders alone, and he left such a mobile force near Haojing, which could support the war in Hedong, Nanyang and even Hehuang at any time. We have found out that the number of the five cavalry has increased recently, and has expanded to more than 15,000 cavalry, and it is still rising. Not only that, but Yang Fu's 10,000 cavalry trained in the Tunjun set could already be put into battle. There are also a lot of wolf riders in the demon clan army under Luo Wuyi's command. The hussar general was worried that the cavalry army under Yang Xian was extremely expanded, and our army would be at an obvious disadvantage, and it would be very disadvantageous to fight with it. ”

"Expand the Upper Rhino Army to 20,000?"

Huan Qi muttered slightly, as if weighing the pros and cons. Twenty-five thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry, this number is much more than the number of Xiliang Iron Cavalry under Zhu Zi when there was no chaos in Liangzhou. However, this is not surprising, in the past, Zhu Zi only had the power of one state, but Yang Xian was different, and he was able to provide a lot of material and financial resources for cultivating cavalry.

The lack of mobility is terrible for today's Zhouliang war. Before, there were no cavalry, and that's it. But now it is different, the cavalry is an elite force on the battlefield, which has a great deal to do with the direction of the war.

It's just that in addition to the rhino cavalry, there are not no other cavalry troops in the Liang army, and Huan Qi's third brother Mocheng Wang Huanheng also has an elite cavalry force under him.

Meaux Ride!

This elite cavalry was born from the Wood Gods, and it can be said to be a subspecies of the Youning Iron Cavalry. The number is not as good as that of the upper rhino cavalry, but the combat power is by no means low. In the past, the Liang army was unable to expand the cavalry on a large scale, but with the exchange of markets with the Yan State and the grassland stallions obtained when they had previously established themselves in the land of Hehuang, the number of cavalry in Mocheng has increased greatly over the years.

"The imperial court has been short of materials recently, so let's expand the rhino cavalry to 15,000 cavalry first!"

"Obey the order!"

Yang Zhi didn't get the answer he wanted, but Emperor Liang's orders could not be disobeyed.

For Huan Qi, the expansion of the upper rhino cavalry was not just a military issue, and he had to weigh the pros and cons of the growing authority of the sheep inspection.

"Let's go down first!"

When Huan Qi said this, he couldn't stop coughing twice. Yang Zhi raised his head slightly and glanced at Huan Qi, but felt that the other party was a little abnormal. Yang Zhi couldn't tell what it was, so he pressed the doubt in his heart and retreated.
