Chapter 378: Lack of Manpower

Around the country of early spring, there was no second ally that Su Jing longed for, at least not within a thousand miles.

Su Jing had to send floating warships to search around, and in the southwest, 1,800 miles away, he found a fairly reliable island country, and the number of residents also exceeded 100 million. But there are still hundreds of millions of slaves in this country.

This made Su Jing displeased, so he simply sent people to infiltrate and incite slaves to rebel, which took three months to attack inside and outside, destroy the country, and wash the princes and nobles in blood.

The island nation was then renamed the Republic of Winter.

This is not Su Jing's originality, among the countries of the South China Sea, there are really republics, and there are not many of them. The Winter Republic also has a king, but I don't know from which period of history Lu Dao found a fairly influential royal family, and re-assisted in ascending the throne, and the real power of the kingdom is in the hands of the prime minister.

The existence of the House of Representatives and the like was directly set aside by Su Jing, and the Prime Minister was Su Jing's puppet.

This winter republic did not have any resistance, but was grateful for the arrival of Su Jing and others.

When Su Jing formed an alliance with the Winter Republic, within a radius of thousands of miles around the Early Spring Country, there was no resistance and no resistance, and they were all cleaned up by Su Jing one by one.

Su Jing also found a good military base, which was an island with an area of tens of thousands of square kilometers, larger than the capital of the earth. The mountains on this island are not high, and after the Qi Refiners investigated, they found that the geology was very stable, and there would be no disasters such as earthquakes for hundreds of thousands of years.

In addition, the mountains on the island are not high, but there are many of them, so they are not afraid of tsunami shock. On the west side, there are three suitable locations for the establishment of harbours. To the east there is a slightly smaller natural harbour.

This island was named Shenbing Island by Su Jing. The eastern islands were simply expanded, and the invincible ships were towed over with eight flying snake ships and remodeled in the harbor.

Construction was carried out on the island of Shenbei, and prisoners of war were sent to be used as coolies. Su Jing didn't have any requirements, as long as it could be completed within three months, these people would be able to regain their freedom.

But the prisoners of war were free. It is impossible to swim back to the Inca Empire, so he can only join the power of Su Jing.

The regent's envoy simply forgot his mission and bought a piece of land in the country of early spring, never planning to return to the empire again. He couldn't take refuge in Su Jing because he was a member of the staff of the regent Jiang Ye. He couldn't go back, and the errand was completely messed up.

The regent, for his part, got no response, and understood what was going on. The invincible ship was captured by Su Jing, which made him very angry. Inca Empire million-strong army. What are you eating?

He didn't expect that the temple on the invincible ship would die inexplicably, and he didn't expect that the commander on the invincible ship didn't listen to his advice and divided his troops into nearly 500,000 troops to try to destroy Su Jing's strength on land.

If it weren't for the complicated terrain on the invincible ships, this battle would probably have ended within a month.

At this time, Su Jing wrote a recital for the regent Jiang Ye. To declare war exploits, it is required to open a government overseas. Ask for a marquis.

The regent pinched his nose and agreed to Su Jing's request, sealing Su Jing as a third-class distant countryman, and crowning him as a general of the third-class chariot.

Then Su Jing established the Yuanxiang County on Shenbing Island, which was of course much lower than the grade of the principality. But I finally have an overseas foundation. These are all promised by the empire, and Su Jing doesn't want much.

Then Su Jing sent back 100,000 captives, borrowed a ship from the early spring country, and sent them back to Eastern Qin.

Then the king of the country of early spring, and the king of the country of winter. All sent a letter to the Eastern Qin. Because it was an ally of Su Jing, it was difficult for Eastern Qin to annex them and recognize their kingdom status.

Su Jing had a good time, he didn't want much, the invincible ship was destroyed, and the regent Jiang Ye was also worried about what Su Jing would find, so he was generous. The reward was not bad, and it alleviated Su Jing's urgent need.

Su Jing's wealth is now very depleted, and the remaining materials in his hands are mostly military materials, and if they are traded to other families, they will inevitably suffer.

Now the fleets of the empire are wreaking havoc in the countries of the South China Sea. The battlefield on Su Jing's side is still small, but he has subdued two countries and established a small country by himself.

The Tang family had already destroyed more than 100 countries, and the strength in their hands had swelled more than ten times, holding hostage all the fleets of these defeated countries and beginning to march towards the evil god country.

The empire has now rewarded eight dukes, dozens of marquises, and hundreds of viscounts. Su Jing, the marquis, is nothing.

In the history of the Empire, more titles have been awarded in this year than in the previous years combined.

In the place occupied by Su Jing, there are no good minerals, and the only advantage is that two countries with a population of more than 100 million have been subdued and have a stable source of troops. In addition, these two countries both produce more grain, and with the help of Qi Refiners, according to the planting methods of Eastern Qin, these two island countries can provide grain and grass for millions of troops for a long time.

The most important thing is the invincible ship, which is one hundred and sixty kilometers long and one kilometer above sea height. The area of the ship is almost one-fifth the size of Shenbing Island.

If it weren't for the special terrain of Shenbing Island, this battleship would not have been docked at all. Shenbing Island, for this invincible ship, is more like a large supply ship.

In addition, if it weren't for the solid geology of Shenbing Island, from the island to the deep sea, it was almost a metal vein, Su Jing would not have chosen here.

This Divine Soldier Island, if it is refined, even if it is used in Taoism, it will not be able to sink it. Metal veins, even if they are not valuable, can be so large that they can be slowly refined with Dao techniques, and they are also rare natural things.

Su Jing also found an anomaly in the depths of this island, more than ten miles below the earth.

It's a good natural spirit pool, it's not a problem to support at least a few golden pills here, if the formation is refined well, the natural spirit pool can also be opened, and then the island will be blocked by the fog to form a natural sea fortress.

In addition to Shenbing Island, Su Mu chose another island two hundred miles away, which was slightly larger than Shenbing Island, which was the base of her Dark Night Double Dragon Army. From the Evil God Kingdom to Eastern Qin, it is still too far to take the sea route, and it is better to set up a base here, the trip is shorter than half, and you can obtain resources nearby.

In order to be invincible, Su Jing had to stay for three more months, and during this period, the matter of conscription in Eastern Qin was on the agenda again. Because of the establishment of a county overseas, it is common for Su Jing to have a garrison here, and he and Su Mu plus Princess Sanssouci have a total of 1.8 million troops, which seems to be a lot, but people will die in battle.

These three strong armies must maintain a certain scale, and it is impossible to merge into Su Jing's legions if they are recruited from the Early Spring Country and the Cold Winter Country. He wanted to set up another legion, so that the elite soldiers in his hands used to be low-level officers and command the battle.

It is impossible for Su Jing to arm such an elite anymore, and he found that his legion and soldiers' equipment were a little excessive. Otherwise, it would not have been possible to fight a series of bloody battles, and the number of soldiers killed and maimed in the battle would be less than 10,000.

Su Jing's biggest problem now is who to let stay on Shenbing Island.

It is impossible for God to come in, so he has to follow the Shenmu Ship to repair equipment and add new weapons to Su Jing's three armies. Without the presence of God, the role of the more than 10,000 divine puppets would not be enough to use at all.

Inujuro and Takayo are absolutely loyal, but Inujuro is too unreliable, and Takayo is not a managerial talent.

None of Su Jing's staff had the ability to command the invincible ship. There are too many people left, so there are no people around him to talk to.

Su Jing thought about it, this is still a place to be kept, and his maid may be available.

So he wrote a letter and asked Princess Sanssouci to send eight maids over. In addition, Lin Xie Hong also left from Xiaoyaohou's side, and it is said that he has already been Jindan.

Lin Xie Hong is smart enough and her strength is not bad, if she lets the maids assist her, she can command the invincible ship. Lin Xie Hong has been learning the things of the military family since he was a child, and he has a genetic talent for fighting.

The use of child labor is also helpless, Su Jing is really unavailable.

But there is still a problem with Lin Xie Hong, that is, Lin Xie Hong is too young, and she is arranged with staff, Su Jing is afraid that Lin Xie Hong will not be able to suppress it. It's just eight maids, and they look weak again.

These eight maids are not big, and they can handle the details, what decisions they really make, it all depends on Lin Xiehong, and it is too difficult.

Su Jing was thinking about whether he could get someone from the Su family again, his cousin Su Jian.

It's just that Su Jian is already a high-level member of the Su family, and if he sends it out, I don't know what conditions the Su family will propose, and I don't know if Su Jian himself is willing.

Practicing in Qingming Mansion is better than working as a coolie on your own side. If there are not many benefits for Su Jian, Su Jian will definitely not come.

On the invincible ship, there must be a million puppets of divine soldiers, and the gods have to refine a clone. If there is no doppelganger of God, no matter how great Lin Xie Hong's ability is, he will not be able to control this invincible ship.

Of course, after the invincible ship becomes a golden jade floating slaughter, it will be more difficult to control.

Fortunately, Lin Xie Hong has not broken the cultivation of the soldiers, and it is definitely not a problem to control the divine soldier puppet. On a huge invincible ship, how can it be a scale of 100,000 people.

In addition to 100,000 sailors, there must be 40,000 elites, and relying on divine puppets is not enough to support a strong battle. Su Jing had to put all the reassuring qi refiners in his hands on the invincible ship. After the transformation, the invincible ship became suitable for cultivation, and the Divine Soldier Island itself has a natural spirit pool, so there is no worry that there are no Qi Refiners willing to station.

At this time, Su Klun gave Su Jing a suggestion to ask Su Jing to recruit people from the families of the soldiers who died in battle, and these people were often more loyal. Moreover, there have been people in the family who died in battle, and newcomers are not so eager to go to the front line to kill the enemy, and it is enough to be able to make meritorious contributions in the rear, and Su Jing's grace will not be missing them in the future.

Su Jing didn't expect that he would win the battle and be in such a hurry. Fortunately, Su Klon's suggestion was good, and he immediately sent a flying snake ship back to recruit people according to Su Klon's wishes.

When Su Jing was suffering from the problem of lack of manpower, someone suddenly came to report that a small floating battleship was approaching, not his own ship. Su Jing looked at it from the sand table, and saw that a small floating battleship was trying to land a hundred miles away, Su Jing smiled, the sign on the ship was from the Hou Mansion.

It should be that the junior sister has arrived, and Su Jing said hello. Then greet Su Mu and go to see this guy who has not seen him for many years. (To be continued......)
