Chapter 313: The Number of Internal Force Levels
Although Qin Wu had completely gotten this result by letting Gao Gui stay, no matter what, Ye Zhiying's words at least comforted Qin Wu and made Qin Wu feel that he was not all in trouble.
After pausing for a while, Qin Wu asked, "Brother Zhiying, now that the money has been scraped together, what should I do next?" Although the group of people you recruited were beaten away by me, I feel that even if I didn't do this, that little bit of people and that kind of combat power would not have any effect at all. β
Ye Zhiying shook his head and said, " Their role is only to collect money for us, although I thought about it and slowly cultivated it in the future, but now that it has been dispersed, then forget it, it doesn't have much impact, what I really need is the power of the post city itself, the army of the post city is called the city defense army, but in fact it is no different from the bandits, completely driven by interests, there is basically no righteous word at all, if there is no sufficient payment, even if the city lord's order does not matter, but no matter what, they are at least a formed army, which can really be used on the battlefieldγ β
"The city defense army of Yicheng?" Qin Wu frowned and said, "To be honest, I am not optimistic about the combat power of Yicheng, you also said that although they are known as an army, at best, they are the combat strength of ordinary county troops, and the number of them is only 100,000, and some of them have to stay to protect Yicheng, and they can't be dispatched, such an army is useless at all, right?"
Ye Zhiying smiled and asked, "What does Brother Qin Wu mean?"
Qin Wu replied: "Since the post city is now under our management, it is equivalent to one of our bases, my idea is that it is better to let these city defense troops continue to stay and consolidate the rear, and we are a few people to return to the Han State, I dare not say the other armies of the Han State, but if it is to fight against the Yang State together, Ren Hanran's wing guards and the Tiger Ben Army that were originally under my management should still be able to become our help, and I believe that Brother Zhiying must also have a way to make them our strength." β
"It's easy for you to push everything to me. Ye Zhiying smiled and shook his head, "First of all, intelligence, although we now know that the Hezong Pass has been breached, we still don't know whether the Wing Guards and the Tiger Ben Army are still there, if we go to the Han Kingdom, but find that the Wing Guards and the Tiger Ben Army have been completely wiped out, then what should we do?"
Taking a step back, even if these two armies are still around, how can we get them to join us in the rebellion against the Han Kingdom? Although I am very confident in my brain, I have not yet reached the point where I can't let them commit treason with just a few words, right?"
After listening to Ye Zhiying's words, Qin Wu said: "But the combat power of Yicheng is indeed useless, if you lead these city defense troops to fight, it may not be as effective as me being trapped in the enemy formation alone." β
Ye Zhiying smiled meaningfully and asked, "Brother Qin Wu, is the strength of Yicheng really weak?"
"Isn't it weak?" Qin Wu asked rhetorically.
Ye Zhiying said with a smile: "If it is weak, how can Yicheng not be annexed by the surrounding powers for hundreds of years?"
"This ......" Qin Wu couldn't answer.
Ye Zhiying raised a finger and said: "The first reason can be understood as that all countries need a buffer zone, but now that the Han Kingdom and the Yang Kingdom have started a full-scale war, what is the point of keeping this buffer zone? And generally speaking, the economy of this kind of buffer zone that survives in the cracks of various countries should be very low, so that all countries cannot afford to occupy it, but in fact? The post city is simply rich, and the taxes of many small countries may not be as good as the post city, how can the big countries not occupy this kind of treasure land?"
Then, Ye Zhiying raised his second finger and said: "Second, because the strength of the post city is extremely strong, so that all countries can't gnaw it down at all, or in other words, the investment in the post city is not proportional to the receipt of the goods at all, even if the post city is so rich." β
"Just with the 100,000 city defense troops in Yicheng?" Qin Wu was puzzled, "Or is it because of Huangfu Yizhen's condensation level?" Judging from their original four major forces, Yicheng does not even have a condensation level powerhouse at any time, and the masters of Yang Kingdom and Wu Kingdom are not as good as the masters of Han Kingdom because they have no martial arts moves, and their strength is not as good as that of Han Kingdom. β
After listening to Qin Wu's conclusion, Ye Zhiying directly asked: "Then let me ask you, Brother Qin Wu, in the rivers and lakes of the Han Kingdom, what is the status of a first-class master, is it common?"
"Naturally uncommon. Qin Wu said directly, "First-class masters, they are already the existence of sects that can be established, if they are grandmaster-level figures, they can even fight with condensing level masters with their powerful moves, although I know a lot of first-class masters in the Han Kingdom, but they usually guard the sect, or still wander around as a lone traveler, not if they want to see it." β
Ye Zhiying said again: "Then let me change the question, in Kyoto of the Han Kingdom, including the surrounding areas of Kyoto, how many internal force level masters are there?"
Qin Wu thought for a moment and replied, "If there are a few sects around Kyoto, there are about twenty. β
After speaking, Qin Wu also reminded: "Although it seems like a lot, the ten permanent servants account for almost half of them, and because it is Kyoto, if it is changed to other cities, it is a question of whether you can find a first-class master." β
Ye Zhiying smiled and said, "I know this, so I deliberately asked you around Kyoto." β
Qin Wu was puzzled: "Brother Zhiying, why is this asked?"
Ye Zhiying said with a smile: "It's nothing, I just want to make a comparison, since Brother Qin Wu thinks that there are about twenty internal force levels in Kyoto of the Han Kingdom, then I should have twenty......
...... So, has Brother Qin Wu calculated how many internal force level masters there are in Yicheng?"
Qin Wu was stunned for a moment, the number of internal force levels in the post city ......
Seeing Qin Wu's stunned look, Ye Zhiying smiled and said: "It seems that Brother Qin Wu has already understood what I mean, probably because Brother Qin Wu has already entered the God Condensing Level, and his strength is too strong, so he doesn't need to take the strength of the internal force level masters to heart, so he didn't care about them at all, but Brother Qin Wu didn't care, it doesn't mean that the internal force level of Yicheng doesn't exist......"
Qin Wu only thought about it slightly, and then felt a chuckle in his heart, just as Ye Zhiying said, because the internal force level of Yicheng was not like the captains of the Ten Standing Servants or the Seven Absolute Army, they could fight together, and if they came down alone, each of them would not pose any threat to Qin Wu, plus most of them acted in a low-key manner, all along, Qin Wu just didn't take their strength to heart.
But now that I think about it, if you count the internal force level masters who died in the tomb before, the internal force level masters in the post city have reached a terrifying nearly 100 people!
