Chapter 948: The Big Problem
In Yujing City, Su Jing is still idle, for him, if he has a lot of opportunities, it is better to give up the power in his hands. Holding power is for immortality to obtain resources, not for the power brought by obsessiveness.
The idea of arresting the county lord of Qingxin was certainly to take advantage, but the other party's revenge would definitely come. Su Jing didn't know how the Qingxin County Lord would retaliate, he just sent more manpower and replenished almost a thousand Qi Refiners in the six Babel Towers on the coast.
Most of these qi refiners are the hands of the Su family, as well as some of the Zhu family and the Tang family. On the Dao Palace's side, the support of the Qi Refiners was mainly in the Buddha Gate Battle Tower, which was the main combat power.
The Buddhist Gate Battle Towers, mainly built near the city and the port, are large in number, and the local forces support each other, so as not to be attacked by people and cause inevitable bloodshed.
The strength of the Dao Gate is still quite terrifying. Because the army of the Fish-Man Empire eats people, Daomen quickly developed something that was made specifically for Fish-Men.
For example, there is an iron pot with a talisman, which is specially used to steam the cage drawer of the fish man.
All kinds of propaganda spread in the Eastern Qin Empire under the deliberate circumstances of the Twelve Dao Palaces. The biggest myth is that eating a fish man can bring benefits to the body. If it is combined with some medicinal materials of the Dao Sect, it can even give ordinary people the opportunity to become Qi Refiners.
Many people have bad talents, weak bodies, and it is difficult to cultivate, but eating more fish-man meat will improve their physical attributes.
Daomen also distributed many recipes, which were popularized in restaurants across the country, and were set up specifically for fish people.
Of course, this is not all rumors, according to the recipe given by the Daomen, if you eat the fish man, you can improve your physical fitness. Just thinking about reaching the level of monasticism. Definitely not.
But the propaganda of Daomen is very effective, and there are too many ordinary people waiting in line to eat the fish people in restaurants around the country. The Eastern Qin Empire was rich, and even the most ordinary peasants saved a month's money. You can also eat a few banquets made by the fish people.
As a result, the entire Eastern Qin Empire, when they heard that the fishmen were attacking, except for the people on the seashore who were a little worried about their own safety, the people in the inland were all eager to try. Some ignorant little families even want to go to the beach and attack some small groups of fish-man armies.
Of course, most small families are not unaware of the problems here. But it will not expose the rumors of the Dao Palace, that is against the Dao Palace, that is an act of death.
But these small families will also send people to the beach to attack small groups of fish-man troops. Because the bones of the fish-people are the most valuable. The bones of these fishmen can be used to refine talismans, which are better than rune paper, not as good as jade talismans.
Kill a Fishman. The bones obtained can almost refine more than thirty bone talismans. This is for small families. It's an opportunity to make a small fortune.
Because of the huge number of fishmen, if you can kill a thousand-person army, it is tens of thousands of bone talisman materials. Selling it to any Dao Palace can cost a small family a year.
Human nature is like this, cockroaches are too weak to be exterminated. The tiger is strong. But it's hard to protect the race. Because cockroaches can't be sold for money, tigers are full of treasures.
During the time that Su Jing was preparing, there were at least more than 100,000 qi refiners in the entire Eastern Qin Dynasty who took the initiative to go to the seaside. Most of these Qi Refiners were only in the Innate Realm. With a small number of troops, trying to make a fortune. The realm of these people is not high, but they will hold a group, generally speaking, they are fifty to sixty Qi Refiners united, with three or five hundred private troops, neatly equipped, waiting for an opportunity on the beach.
When they paid for the purchase of the Tower of Babel, as long as it was a small group of fishmen with a similar number to themselves, these Qi Refiners immediately pounced on it and wiped it out.
All along, Su Jing's army has been operating against more than a thousand fish-man troops, and these small armies have been swallowed up by this kind of private army composed of qi refiners.
The defeated fish-man army, the equipment was pulled out, the corpses and bones of the fish-men were separately removed and sold for money, and the meat and offal were sent to the restaurant in exchange for gold and silver.
This is an unusually brutal war, and once the fishmen attack a village, they often eat the rest of the village. Fish-people eat meat, and they eat it raw. If it weren't for the fish-people eating people, the propaganda role of the Daomen would not be so great.
Since they eat people, the other party is definitely not a civilized race, but jackals, tigers and leopards are the same.
The thinking of the Eastern Qin people is so weird. No one will think, we also eat them, we are uncivilized.
Suddenly, in the past two days, the information Su Jing received was a little strange, the Fishman Empire had stopped small-scale harassment, and now the number of Fishman troops operating ashore was getting smaller and smaller, and the scale was much smaller, usually only less than 100 people, and more than 30 people.
With such a number, against the Qi Refiners of the small family, there is basically no hope of victory.
Su Jing immediately explained the situation to Princess Sanssouci and the others, and the other party was going to take big action. His judgment is based on the common sense of the earth. Even if Jiang Ye and the others didn't understand, they believed in Su Jing's judgment.
Because there were too many fishmen, they suddenly retreated, and that was to gather together and carry out a big operation. Of course, Su Jing didn't know the enemy's plans, which did not prevent him from making judgments and giving orders.
His first order was for the Su family to send a large army to Shuangcheng. At the same time, he will also mobilize a large number of eliminated warships from the Immortal World Realm and give priority to the Su family. The combat effectiveness of these warships is not low, and the reason why they have been eliminated is that the Immortal World Realm is no longer suitable for use.
At the same time, Su Jing ordered the troops trained in Shuangcheng to go to Yujing City to garrison. This is not his selfishness, but he feels that the army on the side of Shuangcheng has been training for a long time, and he needs to be familiar with the city attack and defense battle on the side of Yujing City, not the coastal attack and defense.
For Su Jing, the future war will still be mainly concentrated in the inland.
The army of Shuangcheng has a scale of 600,000 people, and it costs a lot to raise Su Jing. This army is still a little worse if it is to form an army alone, and it must be trained in person before it can be considered passed. Su Jing didn't want to let this army avoid the battle, but instead hoped to make this army the main force when the enemy attacked Yujing City.
In order to eliminate this army, the county lord of Qingxin ordered the five million troops of the Fishman Empire to land from the side of the twin cities. If he knew that there was such a thing, he would definitely go there in person and kill a river of blood.
The army does not participate in actual combat, and will always be just a look.
Yujing City is not far from the sea, but it is blocked by mountains, and you need to take a detour to reach the coast. Su Jing sat in the Jade Capital City to prevent the enemy from using the remaining teleportation array in the Jade Capital City to cause sabotage. He has been sweeping frantically in the past few months, and he has not completely cleaned up the Yujing City.
In the final analysis, it is the instability in Yujing City, and no one knows whether the royal family that has been added in is the internal response of the Qingxin County Lord. The city has always been under military control, and the number of troops has always been insufficient. The transfer of 600,000 people can relieve the pressure and basically meet the security needs of Yujing City.
The army's defense adjustment is done by relying on the dragon ships, and it does not take much time. The replenishment of the defense line on the seashore was also done by floating warships, and while the Qi Refiners were quickly in place, new supplies were also replenished.
Su Jing turned around and discussed with Jiang Ye and the others that he wanted to organize a rapid response force to land anywhere on the coast at any time and carry out the task.
The size of this force will be limited to 40,000 men. Su Jing's request was to give this army a separate number, and the rank was the same as that of the Yulin Army.
Jiang Ye was embarrassed, because he didn't know what Su Jing wanted a number for.
Su Jing is overseas, he already has a country, and he can't control how to develop the army. It sounds ridiculous, but it's true. The foundation of Dongqin is here, and the foundation of Sujing is overseas. Now Su Jing suddenly wants a number, is it to prepare for Princess Sanssouci?
Su Jing said to Jiang Ye: "Don't think about it, this army princess is in control, but I am prepared for Jiang Shen." Future wars, without such an army will not work at all. Jiang Shen had to be familiar with this kind of thing first, otherwise it would be difficult for him to control the empire. ”
Jiang Ye smiled bitterly, and didn't go to consult King Wuwei, and directly approved Su Jing's matter.
The name of this new army is - Sanssouci Army.
Although Su Jing was prepared for Jiang Shen, he still had to let Princess Sanssouci become the supreme existence in this army. Paving the way for Jiang Shen is not the same as selfless dedication. If no one suppresses Jiang Shen, it will become a tragedy if Jiang Shen is controlled and used by others in the future.
Su Jingde has established a great image in Jiang Shen's psychology since he was a child, and he and his wife will inevitably become heroes in Jiang Shen's mind. And Su Mu is the actual instructor of Jiang Shen, and this emperor in the future will not be able to turn out the palm of their hand.
For Jiang Shen, this is not sad. Sadly, if he is controlled by others, he will be destroyed, lose his hope of becoming an immortal, and die early.
The Sanssouci Army now has 40,000 combat troops and about 5,000 auxiliary troops. One Ying Dragon Ship is mainly responsible for the transportation of materials, and two Sun Divine Phoenix Ships and two Night Double Dragon Ships are the main air strike forces. Ten Six Dao Divine Ships were used to transport these 40,000 troops.
The remaining Hopeless Ships and Heavenly Demon Ships are small warships, and there are more of them, forty of each.
The Sanssouci Army was established, and Su Jing directly transferred manpower from his front-line corps. The battleships were also dispatched on their own, and of course, more materials would be exchanged from the royal treasury.
This worry-free army will be expanded to 600,000 people in the future, as the emperor's personal soldiers. At the moment, it is used to counter the attack of the Fish-Man Empire. The troops by the sea are already very mobile, but without the command of Su Jing and others, the scale of mobility is 5,000 people. The battle of the large corps cannot be done yet.
The Sanssouci Army was established to solve this problem.
On this day, Su Jing was arranging for King Wuwei's people to enter the palace to practice, and suddenly he got a battle report, the large-scale invasion of the Fishman Empire, all over the coast, at least nearly 10 million fish-man troops landed, except for large cities and ports, other places could not be defended at all.
The small family's private army has begun to retreat, and is still looking for opportunities. However, some small cities and villages cannot retreat and need support.
Only then did Su Jing and others realize that something was wrong!(To be continued......)
