Yang Tian is very satisfied with the current result, of course, he will not be satisfied with the seizure of the southern region of Xuzhou, which is still far from his goal.

However, now that Baiyun City has just taken the southern region of Xuzhou, it will take a few days to integrate forces, and there will be no battle to cross the river in a short time. On the other hand, the two fleets of Baiyun City were still wandering in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, dragging the armies of Cao and Yuan's forces along the Yellow River, unable to move at all.

For this part of the area occupied, Yang Tian roughly continued the original county setting, set the entire area as Guangling County, and incorporated it into Yangzhou.

While consolidating the forces, the nearly one million troops captured by Baiyun City from this war also had to be relocated.

Now the main army of Baiyun City is only about five million, although it sounds like a lot of money, but in the face of a multi-front battle like this one, it seems to be a little stretched. If Baiyun City has sufficient troops, it can completely conduct a multi-front battle against Xuzhou, breaking all the opponent's defense lines in one fell swoop, and making it completely become meat on the chopping block. For many reasons, the expansion of Baiyun City is imminent.

The expansion of the army is extraordinary, Yang Tian naturally has to seek the opinions of various think tanks in Baiyun City, although now there are several major strategists in Baiyun City, but this is not a difficult thing for Yang Tian who has the Xuanji ring, he personally rushed to Changyi County, where Guo Jia is located, and at the same time let several other strategists teleport to Xuanji City, and then he can take these people out. Of course, the reason why Yang Tian personally rushed to Changyi City was not only to discuss the expansion of the army, but also to pick up Cheng Yu.

Two days ago. He got Guo Jia's message and knew that Zhao Yun had got Cheng Yu, and he was immediately ecstatic. Although Cheng Yu can't be compared with Guo Jia and others, he is no worse than Chen Gong, no matter what the occasion, it is absolutely no problem to be alone. However, Cheng Yu's loyalty to Cao Cao is very high, and it is still very difficult to persuade Cheng Yu to surrender in a short period of time, especially now that Guo Jia still needs to command the battle of Changyi City, there is no time to rub shoulders with Cheng Yu. Therefore, Yang Tian included Cheng Yu in the Xuanji ring. put this matter aside for the time being, and turned to discuss the expansion of the army with Guo Jia and others.

After detailed discussions between Yang Tian and Guo Jia and others, it was finally decided not to increase the number of large legions and continue to expand the size of the legions. As for the source of the soldiers. Naturally, it was the city guards in the territory of Baiyun City who had reached the eighth-order strength.

A few years ago. Yang Tian has already stipulated that only those who have reached the A level can have the ability to transfer to a non-commissioned officer, correspondingly. The treatment of the soldiers has also been greatly improved compared with before, and now that the economic strength of Baiyun City is getting stronger and stronger, the expenses that have increased the treatment of the soldiers are nothing at all. And due to the high quality of the soldiers, even if it is a city guard, it is only a matter of time before they are promoted to the eighth order, especially the several batches of soldiers who were transferred later, they were all transferred in the military camp of Tianya City. Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, and in the near future, the ninth-order soldiers of Baiyun City will inevitably usher in explosive growth.

Now, there are more than two million people in the Baiyun City City Guards who have reached the eighth-order strength, although some of them have not yet reached the eighth-order peak, but this impact is not very large, and after participating in the war, they will improve faster.

For the distribution of these two million soldiers, Yang Tian adopted Guo Jia's proposal and added 100,000 soldiers to each of the existing main army corps. In addition to the remaining 800,000 evenly distributed to the five strongest legions of Qinglong, White Tiger, Blazing Sun, Yanlong, and Qilin, the remaining 300,000 were used to form the fourth largest fleet in Baiyun City.

The reason why Guo Jia built yì like this is also very reasonable. First of all, from the current point of view, Baiyun City urgently needs to open up a second battlefield in Xuzhou to expand its deterrent effect on Xuzhou. Otherwise, when the main army of Xuzhou returns and lays a heavy defense line on the Huai River in Xuzhou, then this battle will have to be fought. And the best way to open up a second battlefield is to attack the eastern part of Xuzhou from the sea. But now the main force of the Tiger Shark Pirate Group in Baiyun City has been driven to the shore as a landlubber, and is still busy working on the Mongolian grassland. Although the two fleets of Blood Sail and Kamikaze roamed the Yellow River every day, their role could not be ignored, and if they did not contain a large part of the main forces of Cao and Yuan's armies, I am afraid that it would be difficult for Changyi County to hold out for long under the joint attack of the two major forces. As for the strongest Jinfan Naval Army in White Cloud City, they are currently busy exploring the huge land behind the Crescent Peninsula! The importance of this matter to Baiyun City is definitely no less than that of Raiding Xuzhou.

In the long run, the forces of all countries have poured into the Endless Sea on a large scale, and in the near future, the competition for the Endless Sea will become increasingly fierce.

Therefore, it is already an urgent matter to expand the strength of the naval army, and it is logical for Guo Jia to propose it now.

Of course, the formation of a fleet is much more complicated than that of an ordinary corps, and it is not enough to have only troops and equipment, but also to have a sufficient number of ships. Fortunately, there is no problem for Baiyun City in this regard, and now Baiyun City not only has Seaking-class battleships, but also more advanced Seaking-class battleships, although the number of Seaking-class battleships is not much, adding up to more than twenty, but its performance is not comparable to Seaking-class battleships. In addition to these two types of warships, there is also an ironclad battleship made by Nine Ghost Jialong, which is a little worse than the Sea King-class battleship in terms of speed, but it is stronger in terms of defense, and it can be said that each has its own victory.

According to Guo Jia's plan, this newly formed fleet will not be equipped with Sea King-class warships, and only one hundred and fifty Sea King-class warships and thirty ironclad warships will be required, plus dozens of Sea King transport ships as auxiliaries, it will be a complete fleet. With this number of ships, Yang Tian didn't even blink his eyes when he took it out.

After the plan was decided, it was immediately implemented, and the two million troops were quickly put in place except for the personnel of the two major armies of Lieyang and Qilin and the three major naval fleets, and they were integrated into the new legions as soon as possible. Of course, compared with the expansion of ordinary soldiers, the management of these main legions has also been increased, although all the legions have not been able to get historical generals, but there are still a lot of ordinary king-level generals, and the number of each legion has increased by almost a dozen, which is also a great thing. These king-level generals will be competent candidates for the position of captain or above of the legion.

After the city guard army was transferred from two million troops, its strength was slightly reduced, but the size of the army was not reduced in the slightest, and even increased. The source of their replenishment was naturally those who had been captured from Guangling County and the previous Yangzhou. After these soldiers joined Baiyun City, their qualifications were improved, but under Yang Tian's critical gaze, a large number of soldiers were still disarmed and returned to the field. Although Baiyun City was now in dire need of increasing the size of its army, Yang Tian's plan for elite troops had never changed.

……

The formation of the fourth fleet in Baiyun City was very smooth, and within three days, all the personnel, ships and equipment were in place, and after a short training in the barracks for the transfer of naval forces, this fleet began to take shape, and then the legion trial.

It took another two days for the formation of the Chilong Fleet, the fourth largest fleet in Baiyun City. The reason why Yang Tian named this fleet Chilong can also be regarded as a positioning of the role of this fleet, and its biggest task is to defend the domestic waters for Baiyun Town. Compared with the vast Endless Sea, the domestic sea area can only be regarded as a small pool, and the fourth fleet of Baiyun City, even in this pool, has the ability of a dragon.

It is too early to say that the Chilong fleet has the ability of a dragon, and the first task it undertook after its successful formation was a simple escort mission, the purpose of which was to escort the main army of Baiyun City from the waterway into the Xuzhou territory.

Compared with other states and counties, the strength of Xuzhou's naval army is relatively strong, the reason is that Xuzhou is bordered by the sea in the east, has a regional foundation for the development of naval forces, and along the Huai River, there is also a large fleet. Although these fleets could not be compared with the main force of Baiyun City in terms of combat effectiveness, the number of ships they had was extremely large. If the Baiyun City army did not have a fleet escort when crossing the Huai River, it would definitely be very dangerous.

At the same time, there is also an army that landed from the east coast of Xuzhou, but due to the long coastline of Xuzhou, there are many places for the Baiyun City army to choose to land, so there is no need to worry about the Xuzhou army for targeted defense. In this case, Baiyun City only needed to send some transport ships to transport the army over, and it didn't need the Chi Long fleet to escort it.

As the Baiyun City army moved again, the Xuzhou side finally became nervous again. Fortunately, at this time, the main army of Xuzhou finally rushed back, and most of them had been teleported to the front line of the Huai River, which made their hearts a little bottomed. The follow-up army continued to keep up, and it seemed that they had made up their minds to keep the Baiyun City army out of the Huai River.

Although Tao Qian was now lying on the bed, he knew that the Baiyun City army was not so easy to defend. If it is only to prevent the Huai River, I am afraid that the effect is not very great, and the opponent's fleet can send their troops to the coastal area at any time. Could it be that at this time, he teleported the army to the front line of the East China Sea? Although it is in its own territory and within a state, the cost of teleportation is not a big problem, but the key is that the teleportation efficiency of the city is limited, and it is impossible to achieve frequent and rapid mobilization. However, if this main army is scattered and defended on both sides, it is also not a small problem, because this half of the army is simply not enough to resist the attack of the main army of Baiyun City.
