Chapter 195: Garrison
Zhou Chuan looked at Qi Jiguang and said with a smile: "I think that the world's talents should enter our dynasty, and in a few days, a god will come, and then we will get along well, so don't hurt each other's harmony." β
When Qi Jiguang heard this, he sighed in his heart, His Majesty is really extraordinary. He knew how he came, although he didn't know who Zhou Chuan was talking about, but obviously like him, he was recruited.
Zhou Chuan looked at Qi Jiguang and asked, "How many people are left in the Qi family's army now?"
"Thirteen hundred. Qi Jiguang's voice was slightly low.
There are more than 20,000 elite Qi family troops, and now, there are less than 2,000 people left, and this loss is really too great.
Zhou Chuan's face, which was originally happy because of the imminent arrival of the god general Huo Qu's illness, also sank. The loss of more than 18,000 Qi family troops is no less than the loss of 900,000 troops!
Maybe it's a bit exaggerated to say this, but for Zhou Chuan, the status of the more than 10,000 Qi family troops in his heart will not be lower than the 900,000 army.
The reason is very simple, a dynasty, a dynasty, or even a holy religion must have an army that it can take and an army that can deter everyone. Just like the Holy Sect Knight of the Holy Sect, he is also famous in the Continent of Living Beings.
The Qi family army is the most powerful army of the Wuzhou Dynasty so far, and it is not afraid even in the face of the iron cavalry of the Xiaoyue Dynasty.
Even in the battle of Bianhe Road, if it weren't for the fact that the number of Qi family's army was too small, the 100,000 iron horsemen would be slaughtered by the Qi family's army if they didn't need Qi Jiguang to make a move. The combat effectiveness of the complete Qi family army is very terrifying!
Zhou Chuan's original intention was to make the Qi family army the most powerful army on the surface of the Wu Zhou Dynasty and deter the surrounding dynasties.
But now, this terrible army has less than two thousand men left, which is a very big loss. Taking a deep breath, Zhou Chuan said in a deep voice: "Qi Jiguang, after this battle, I will definitely give you a complete Qi family army!"
Staring at Qi Jiguang, Zhou Chuan said: "I can give you any cultivation resources you want, and I have only one request, the Qi family army must become the main force of the Wu Zhou Dynasty!"
"This ......"
Qi Jiguang's face was embarrassed.
"Why, can't you do it?" Zhou Chuan frowned slightly.
Qi Jiguang smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, it's not that the ministers can't do it, it's that the Qi family army occupies too many resources......
"The resources used to train the 8,000 Qi family army in the past, if they are used to train ordinary elite soldiers, they can also train at least 100,000 people. Now if you train 100,000 Qi family troops, all the resources of the entire Wu Zhou Dynasty will be tilted towards the Qi family army, which will definitely lead to a decline in the combat effectiveness of other armies, and I hope Your Majesty will think twice. β
Qi Jiajun is Qi Jiguang's biggest hole card, of course he wants to train 100,000 people, even 200,000, 500,000, 1 million.
As a general of the Wu Zhou Dynasty, commanding hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Wu Zhou Dynasty, he couldn't reduce the resources of other armies just for the sake of the Qi family's army, that was not what a general should do.
Zhou Chuan groaned slightly, and said: "This matter is not urgent, we will discuss it after the big war, maybe there will be enough resources by then." β
When Qi Jiguang heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he was a little worried that Zhou Chuan would definitely form the Qi family army at all costs.
"How is the Baoqing Capital?" Zhou Chuan asked after a slight pause.
Baoqing City has always been a place of concern in his heart, it is the center of the Wuzhou Dynasty, if it is broken, it will really be a complete calf.
Because Baoqing City is so important, if the combined forces of the various dynasties suddenly increase their troops to attack Baoqing City, with the strength of Baoqing City, they will definitely not be able to hold it.
But after thinking about it, with Yu and Song Qingze here, there must be no problem.
Qi Jiguang nodded and said, "The last general has received information from Baoqing City, not to ask for help, but to say that Baoqing is worry-free, and it is a letter written by Song Qingze, a protΓ©gΓ© of Fan Xiang. β
Zhou Chuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, since he had Song Qingze's handwritten letter, then it would be fine.
Since Fan Zhongyan dared to recommend Song Qingze as a supervisor, it means that Song Qingze's talent in this area is really not weak.
But after thinking about it, he looked at Qi Jiguang and said: "Qi Jiguang, now you go back to Baoqing City immediately, although Song Qingze knows the art of war, but I am worried that he will not be able to hold his breath, and when the combined forces of the various dynasties attack, he will go out to fight them, you must guard Baoqing City when you go back!"
"The last will obey!"
Qi Jiguang responded and immediately retired.
Zhou Chuan looked at it, sighed lightly, and muttered: "This is the passivity of defense, it's too uncomfortable!"
Not to mention Baoqing City, even Tongji City is also in passive defense, and all fronts are pinned down by the iron cavalry invasion of the Xiaoyue Dynasty.
The territory of Yanbei is vast, and there are still more than one million of the Xiaoyue Iron Cavalry, and they can easily mobilize a large army to attack any place in the Yanbei territory.
But not only is there not much army in Zhou Chuan's hands, but there are also many places that need to be defended, Bianhe City is better for the time being, there are still about 100,000 guards left there, and even if the Xiaoyue Iron Cavalry wants to attack, it can't be taken at present.
But there are not many troops on the other side of the river in Bianhe City, and it is already very difficult to defend the front, let alone other places.
The only thing that reassures Zhou Chuan is that there are soldiers from the city defense battalion in Bianhe Road, so there is no need to worry about it for the time being.
"The enemy must be defeated once, only in this way can the enemy pay attention to it, so that they do not dare to divide their forces to attack other places!"
A fine light flashed in Zhou Chuan's eyes, and when he was about to give the order, a Qi family sergeant walked in and said, "Your Majesty, there is a young man outside the door who asks to see you." β
"The boy wants to see you?"
Zhou Chuan was stunned, and then said happily: "It must be Huo Quai, hurry, please come in." β
"Yes!"
Soon, the soldier walked in with a teenager.
"Grass people Huo go sick! Meet Your Majesty, Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live. Huo Quzhi knelt on one knee.
He practiced the etiquette of the common people, the etiquette of the common people when they met the king of a country.
"Huo Quai?"
Zhou Chuan's eyes were happy, he had been waiting for Huo Quzhi's arrival, but she didn't expect Huo Quzhi to come in such a short time. smiled at the moment: "In the future, you have to do a good job for the Wu Zhou Dynasty and kill these damned enemies!"
"Thanks to Your Majesty's love!" Huo Quzhi said loudly.
Zhou Chuan knew, and Huo Quzhi also knew, so the two of them kept it a secret and directly inserted the topic.
Looking at Huo Quai, Zhou Chuan groaned slightly, and said, "This time, you are temporarily the forward general of the army, and you will charge into battle for the army!"
Zhou Chuan also has ideas for this arrangement. Huo Quzhi went on his first expedition in history, beheaded countless people, and acted as a striker, and now he has a cultivation, and it is most appropriate to give him the position of a forward general.
