Chapter 280: The Enemy's Preparations
Datong!
As the largest city in the northwest of Dahua closest to the territory, Datong's prosperity is far from being comparable to that of the Central Plains, where the most soldiers and merchants are located.
This has to be traced back to the history of Datong, which was first used mainly for the distribution of prisoners and prisoners, and later the imperial court realized the importance of its geographical location, so it spent a lot of effort to build the city walls and station soldiers.
Therefore, to be precise, it should be a military city.
The biggest feature of a city dominated by soldiers is that it is slaughtered and cold, of course, this is only before the Eighteen Sage Kings settle in.
Today, the simple and rugged barracks are gone, replaced by cliffs and pavilions that symbolize prosperity and wealth, and the streets are no longer full of armor and ruffians, but ordinary people and merchants who walk and shop.
Princess Moon walked down the street, looking at the endless flow of people, and admired in her heart. I have heard that the eighteen virtuous kings of the Hua Dynasty are capable officials who are rare to see in thousands of years, but when I hear it, I feel completely different from what I see.
In just three months, a place full of brawls and violence has become more prosperous than the royal tribes of the grassland, and she boasts that she can't do it, and no one on the grassland can do it.
Seeing Princess Yue's shocked expression, the little prince who accompanied her was proud: "What does Your Majesty the Princess think of this place?" ”
Although the Moon Princess inherited the position of the Moon Wolf King and became the Moon Wolf Queen, most people are still used to calling her the Moon Princess, but the word His Majesty representing rights is added after the princess.
Princess Yue's shock quickly became indifferent: "The talent of the prince, Yue'er is not either!" ”
"Her Majesty the princess is too modest, my Dahua officials are the best at managing people's livelihood, my father, as one of the best, is not surprised to do this step, if you change places, I believe that Your Majesty the princess will never be bad."
The little prince said very modestly, but if he is delicate, it is not difficult to hear the arrogance hidden in the depths. Princess Moon naturally belonged to one of them, but she just smiled and didn't answer.
If the Moon Princess doesn't say it, it doesn't mean that other people don't say it, such as Acrylic. This rugged man from the White Bear Clan has a delicate mind and something like that...... Inexistent.
"Hahaha...... The little prince really has self-knowledge, and wants me to say, you have made this bird place so lively, it is completely in vain, and if you want to dominate the world, nothing is as good as your own fist. For example, the two of us, Lao Tzu can beat you ten by one, no matter how many people you accept and hoard more food, isn't it cheap Lao Tzu? ”
"This ...... Patriarch Jacqueli's words were somewhat ...... Biased. The little prince's face turned red, what he had always thought he was proud of was said to be useless by others, if he didn't think about maintaining his demeanor, maybe he would have made people beat this reckless man.
Who knew that Jacqueli actually had a kind of persistence in carrying out barbarism to the end: "Not biased, not biased at all, everything in this world is respected by strength, the strong should ride the most divine horse, eat the most delicious meat, sleep with the most beautiful woman, and account for all the truths he thinks are right!"
Take the two of us, in the case of not being able to reach synchronicity, you can consider using force to determine the victory, such as wrestling...... If you can beat me, you have a point, but you have to listen to me. How about a game? ”
"You ......" No matter how good the little prince is, he was so angry by this guy's unreasonable words that he almost agreed, but fortunately he was not carried away by reason, and he avoided the painful experience of being a human sandbag.
The Moon Princess turned her head and glared at Jacqueli. Although Acrylic was not convinced, but the Moon Princess was the current Moon Wolf King, and he didn't dare to fight on the spot, so he had to glare at the little prince viciously and stop talking.
He can be the patriarch of the White Bear Clan, but it is not like it seems, this kind of evil deeds is his best disguise, it makes him like a fish in water many times, such as now.
"Hmph...... boasting, thinking that Lao Tzu doesn't know what you're thinking? Marrying our queen of the prairie is far from qualified with your little white face! ”
******
Datong Mansion, the layout here has hardly changed from the original.
It's not that the Eighteen Sages don't want to change, but they don't have time, the people on the grassland have already arrived, and the queen is still there. He attached great importance to this and specially sent his youngest son to receive the whole process.
In just three months, the Eighteen Sage Kings have completed their own layout: soldiers and horses, grain and grass, and people's hearts...... Ally, now he only needs one opportunity, he can swing his fist, let that imperial brother see his powerful power, and let his father and emperor see in the spirit of the sky, which of your two sons is more suitable to be in charge of this huge empire!
This king wants the whole world to know how wrong your choice was back then, and how unreasonable your competition was.
"Report - Lord Wang, the Moon Wolf Queen asks to see you outside the palace!"
Haha, the opportunity has finally arrived!
******
"Holy Master, all 80,000 people of the Agrarian Revolutionary Army have been assembled!" Zhou Quan's report with an excited face.
"What, so much?" Qian Yu was stunned for a moment, remembering that there were less than 8,000 people in total when he left, and it had only been a few days, and it had almost doubled tenfold.
Zhou Quan explained: "After you left, the Land Revolutionary Army was taken over by Venerable Suzaku, and it is said that Venerable Suzaku only does one thing these days, which is to expand the army, which is why it has such a scale!" ”
Qian Yu was not as happy as he imagined, if he wanted to expand the army, he would have expanded it a long time ago, and the reason why he reduced the number of people was that he knew that the combat effectiveness of an army was not directly related to the number of people. A well-trained army, even with only a few thousand men, is more than enough to beat 100,000 stragglers.
"Eighty thousand is too many, tomorrow you start screening people, according to the military standard I gave you, and compress the number to 20,000!"
"This ......" Zhou Quan was stunned, "Master Saint, I heard that the troops under the Eighteen Sage Kings are 500,000, and the grassland Hu people also have 300,000, and we still have to sift people?" ”
Qian Yu nodded: "Of course you have to sift it, there are not many soldiers in the fine, 20,000 is enough, I still want to reduce another 5,000!" Don't believe the so-called 800,000, there must be water in this one! ”
Thoughtful: "......"
Even if there is water for 800,000 miles, there are still 500,000 for 500,000, right? If you fight with 20,000 people, that's a pair of twenty-five, and fools know that one person can't beat twenty-five!
"What about the people who are screened out? Dismissed? ”
"Severance...... It's a pity to divide them into small units and go to help Miss Shishi do the agrarian revolution work. ”
sent Zhou Quan away, and Qian Yu called Qinglong again.
For Qinglong, Qian Yu feels very strange, no matter where he goes, the other party follows him, and he doesn't do anything serious every day.
In the past, when Yue Fei and the others didn't come, he always targeted himself everywhere, and later found that he had the same smell as several people from the Flying Dragon Gang, so he messed around with them. If it weren't for the fact that he came back this time and took up the position of Qinglong Venerable, Qian Yu would have suspected that this thing was quitting the religion to keep him safe.
"Lord Qian, are you looking for me?"
"What's the current situation in Ipin County?"
"Not bad, what's wrong?"
Qian Yu froze: "What's not bad?" ”
"Not bad, it's not bad, is there a problem?"
"I asked about people's status in various aspects, such as food, income, living environment, satisfaction, and expectations for the future...... That is, the mental outlook and so on. ”
Seeing that Qian Yu was rambling a lot, Qinglong didn't dare to answer so easily this time: "It's all very good!" ”
Qian Yu: "......"
Well, I'll see it myself!
