Chapter 132: Three High Cities
There are many sayings in history about the Battle of Falling Moon City in the fourth year of the Jade Emperor, such as "One-Day War" and "Battle of the Falling Moon", but what is really praised is "the first display of war weapons". Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
In the world of Zhihao, for the first time on the secular battlefield, bows and arrows, shields and machetes and other weapons appeared, and "armed men" appeared, and the fangs of weapons were displayed in front of the world for the first time.
In the original war, the main battle was manpower, and the number of people and the physical strength of the soldiers were the decisive factors. And now, the quality of weapons has become a key factor in success or failure on the battlefield. It makes people have to pay attention to weapons.
"What are bows and arrows, how are they made, how do shields and machetes work together?...... "The new weapons of the Kogen Mystic Medicine Kingdom have attracted the attention of many dynasties and kingdoms, especially the nearby Haoyue Dynasty. They desperately want to know everything that happened.
The Haoyue Emperor directly gave a death order: "Check it out for me, you must find out what these newly emerged weapons are and how they are used? ā
The Battle of Falling Moon City became a propaganda war for the weapons of the Kogen Miracle Medicine. This is also one of the effects that Zhang Haotian and Silly Gen want to achieve.
They can't help it, don't look at them occupying the Jade Liuchen Medicine Country, winning the battle of Falling Moon City, and obtaining countless resources, but they are still a little stretched thin in terms of money. After all, their kingdom is not deep, and they have few resources for income.
Since occupying the Yuliuchen Medicine Country, they ordered the "Weapon Workshop" to start work with all its might, and rushed to produce a large number of various weapons.
The emergence of these new weapons also bought a fairly long period of peace for the Bright and Strict Medicine Country, giving them time to make more adequate preparations for war.
Of course, it is advisable to chase after the poor. For the Bright Moon Elixir Country, it was impossible for Zhang Haotian and Silly Gen to let them go easily.
On August 4th, Zhang Haotian and Silly Gen led a large army to the outside of the capital of the Bright Moon Elixir Country. King Mingyue did not stubbornly resist to the end, but sent people to sue for peace.
After secret negotiations between the two sides, a compensation agreement was reached: the Bright Moon Elixir Kingdom compensated Guangyan Miaoyao Kingdom with 1 million taels of gold and 5 million taels of silver; ceded 1/3 of the land and allowed Guangyan Miaoyao Kingdom to establish a garrison; established the Jade Emperor Religion as the state religion and established a branch hall, so that all subjects, including the army, should believe in the Jade Emperor Religion; and formed an offensive and defensive alliance with the Guangyan Miaoyao Kingdom and was protected by the Guangyan Miaoyao Kingdom.
King Tianyi was not very satisfied with this result, and he angrily found Silly Gen: "Brother-in-law, what's going on? We have already hit the enemy's capital, and they have no power to resist at all, why did you agree to ask them for peace?"
Silly Gen was obviously in a good mood, looked at Tianyi with a smile, and said: "Tianyi, this is the meaning of the instructor deacon you admire, when have you ever seen the instructor suffer?
Zhang Haotian didn't think about occupying the Bright Moon Elixir Country, but when his divine sense swept over the troops of the Haoyue Dynasty who were waiting on the border of the Bright Moon Elixir Country, he changed his mind.
The land ceded this time was not a land adjacent to the Kogan Myakuya Kingdom as people imagined, but a land bordering the Haoyue Dynasty. Once the Haoyue Dynasty attacked this land, it would be tantamount to declaring war on the Guangyan Wonderful Medicine Country, and it would have to be said at that time.
And Zhang Haotian was sure that the Haoyue Dynasty would definitely find a way to invade this land. The main reason is that this land, like the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in China is to India, is a strategic highland, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
The Bright Moon Elixir Country can easily invade the Haoyue Dynasty through this place, and if the Haoyue Dynasty does not invade this place, it will always have to worry about the invasion of the Bright Moon Elixir Country, and there will always be a feeling of "like a man on your back".
But fortunately, the Haoyue Dynasty is attacking other kingdoms, and it doesn't have the energy to deal with the Bright Moon Elixir Country, so it's just a heavy defense.
And the most important purpose of this war has been achieved. The Jade Emperor Sect has expanded its territory again, and the believers will inevitably be greatly promoted. Moreover, once the subjects of the Bright Moon Elixir Country believed in the Jade Emperor Sect, it would be no different from their merger into the Guangyan Miaoyao Country, except that it was still a kingdom in name.
And the monetary compensation is even more "timely rain". The cost of military spending is an astronomical amount every hour, which puts a lot of pressure on the stupid roots, and now the military expenses and war rewards are funded, which solves the urgent need.
At the same time, the idea of building several impregnable fortified cities is also supported by funds. Through several wars, Silly Gen found that even the defense force of the capital of a country is very weak, that is, the capital of the Bright Moon Elixir Country, if Silly Gen wants to occupy it, it will not take a lot of strength, because the city wall is very low and thin, and it can't resist the impact of siege equipment at all.
Especially on the border of "Dust Medicine County", such a city is very much needed, and it will shoulder the heavy responsibility of the backbone of attack and defense.
After design, Silly Gen mobilized a large number of people, including the army, and built three large cities at the same time, one Dust Medicine City, and the other Baoling City will be located in the border between the Baoling Holy Medicine Country and the "Dust Medicine County", and also secretly built a "Rizhao City" on the border between the Bright Moon Elixir Country and the Haoyue Dynasty.
In just half a year, the three heroic cities have formed a preliminary outline. In particular, the Dust Medicine City and Baoling City have shown that the walls are high and deep, the buildings are strict, stretching for more than ten kilometers, the gods are dozens of zhang high, the walls are as thick as zhangxun, the axe blades are splashing stars, the cone chisel is traceless, and it is extremely strong, and it is not a problem to accommodate millions of people and horses. Relatively speaking, Rizhao City is relatively small and has limited capacity.
It will take a year or more for the entire city to be completely built, but it will not hinder the realization of its basic defense functions.
The three male cities are all located in the choke point, among which the Dust Medicine City and the Treasure Spirit City can be described as a natural barrier to defend against the Guangyan Medicine Country and the Treasure Spirit Sacred Medicine Country, and any country that wants to invade the Guangyan Medicine Country and the Treasure Spirit Sacred Medicine Country, capturing these two cities will become the primary consideration.
The reason for the construction of these three cities is also a helpless way for Silly Gen. In less than a year, the Guangyan Miao Medicine Country has experienced two royal wars, although the battle front is brilliant, but one problem has been shown - the original Guangyan Miao Medicine Country is too small, the population is seriously insufficient, and it is already very difficult to digest and absorb a dust medicine county, if it were not for the existence of the Jade Emperor Sect, I am afraid that it would be indigestion. This is also one of the reasons why Zhang Haotian later decided not to annex the Bright Moon Elixir Country first.
Not to mention anything else, at present, the Guangyan Medicine Country has nearly three million square kilometers, which is equivalent to 1/3 of China's land area, and the army required for such a large area is not a small number, and at present, the army of the original Guangyan Army Medicine Country is only 20,000, and there are 100,000 in Dust Medicine County, plus 20,000 horses from the allied Baoling Holy Medicine Country, these horses are only enough for defense, and then divide troops to occupy a new country, there will be no soldiers available.
Expanding the army will be the first priority, and fortunately, the problem of loyalty can be solved through the Jade Emperor Sect. Otherwise, even if they occupy a new territory, they will not dare to use their subjects, and they have to worry about whether they will secretly resist or communicate with foreign countries.
Silly Gen and Zhang Haotian found that it was really wise to establish the Jade Emperor Sect in the first place, and if there was no Jade Emperor Sect, not to mention the plan to change the sky, it would be a problem to even protect oneself in the royal war.
After the expansion of the army, the scale of 10,000 apologetic combat teams, 50,000 Guangyan troops, 50,000 Baoling troops, and 150,000 dust medicine troops was initially formed.
Silly also established a reserve system, and the size of the reserve was about the same size as the regular army. They carry out military training on the basis of agriculture in peacetime, and can quickly become an army in wartime.
Looking at the army that is gradually taking shape, Silly Gen and Zhang Hao have some confidence in the beginning, at least they don't have to worry about the embarrassment that no one is available.
