Chapter 200

Ye Li said directly: "Do you remember the army that you and I talked about last time?"

Li Siye is in a daze, sure enough!

"Your Majesty, you want to use the money from the silver warehouse to build an army?"

Ye Li grinned: "Those who know me, Li Siye also!"

"And it's a secret build!" he said, his eyes grim.

Li Siye and other characters need to ask more, a secret is created, and he understands it instantly, his resolute face gradually ruddy, and his eyes are gradually ready to move!

Based on the Zhao family's army, rebuilding an army is his long-cherished wish! At least the Zhao family's army will not be completely wiped out, and Zhao Pujia, as a harem concubine, will be able to support her mother's family in the future!

In an instant, everything went through his mind, and he said excitedly: "Your Majesty, how many people do you plan?"

Ye Li frowned, thought for a while, and sighed: "At least half of the money in the silver warehouse should be used to solve the financial deficits in various places, and some of it should be kept for backup, and those that can be used to build the army will be counted as one and a half million taels of gold." ”

"How many people do you think you can build?" he humbly asked, in this area, he is a novice after all, and Li Siye is a battlefield slaughterer!

Remember https://m in a second.

Li Siye was flattered and amazed by Ye Li's tone of speaking, Corporal Lixian!

He immediately stood up, very professional, and his eyes were bright: "Your Majesty, based on Weichen's experience, it is estimated from the army's salary, baggage, grain and grass, war horses and other aspects that one and a half million taels of gold is enough to build an army of 200,000. ”

"But the follow-up needs a huge amount of military spending to support, if you plan in the long run, these money is only enough for 100,000 people, but if Your Majesty wants more people, you can save money in terms of baggage......"

Ye Li shook his head, his eyes were firm: "No, there are not many soldiers, but in the essence!"

"Since you want to build it, you have to build an army that is proud of the world, you can't save money in these places, and the infantry is not enough, you must have cavalry, even heavy cavalry!"

In his last life, he was familiar with history and deeply understood that in the era of cold weapons, the most awesome were always heavy cavalry and cavalry, attacking cities and pulling out villages, and doing everything.

The thought of this made him even boil!

And Li Siye on the side was directly shocked, and his eyes shone violently: "There are not many soldiers, but in the fine, Your Majesty is wise!"

"But ......" he then smiled bitterly: "But Your Majesty, heavy cavalry is probably unlikely, that is not something that can be built with money, a heavy cavalry, one person and one horse need a weight of dozens of catties." ”

"And our Great Wei, the iron ore in the whole country can't be made up so much. ”

Hearing this, Ye Li frowned, but not surprised.

In ancient times, iron tools were very scarce, and each dynasty basically had only a dozen or two hundred thousand elite troops to match the baggage.

He remembered the prosperous Tang Dynasty in another history, the power of a country was exhausted, and less than 50,000 heavy armored cavalry were created at the peak, and as for the 100,000 heavy armor deduced in those film and television dramas, almost all of them were ripped off.

"Don't think about the heavy cavalry first, let's build cavalry, 100,000 cavalry should still be no problem. He groaned, and then looked at Li Siye: "I plan to leave this matter to you, and in the future, this group of people will also be led by you to prevent the internal situation in the DPRK, and also show muscles to the Turks to delay time in the country." ”

"Now if you have any problems, tell them all together. "He's like a family, amiable and trusting.

While Li Siye was grateful, he admired Ye Li more and more, the matter of secretly building an army is definitely far-sighted, it seems that His Majesty's goal is not just as simple as a Cai Chun.

He thought about it, quickly entered the state, and began to make suggestions for Ye Li: "Your Majesty, it is not easy to form this army under the nose of the enemy. ”

"I can call on more than 12,000 veterans to enter the camp, and the rest will depend on recruitment, but Weichen is still sure of this. ”
