Chapter 394 Alliance
"This time our army successfully entered Yangzhou and captured Huaidong. However, if we want to achieve supremacy, we only need to rely on the land of Jianghuai, and there are still some shortcomings. Only by taking Jiangnan can we have the foundation of our country!"

"The heroes in the south of the Yangtze River, each prince has at least 30 soldiers and horses. Among them, the Ming army has the strongest military strength, close to 80. The mighty force also allows the Ming army to conquer the east and west, and use its own strength to contend against Liu Song, the Eastern Jin Dynasty, etc. dynasty!"

Wang Jingyu said with some seriousness.

A few days ago, Pei Ju had entered Jingkou and successfully contacted Liu Song's forces.

While contacting the other party, detailed information from the princes in the south of the Yangtze River was also continuously sent to Yangzhou.

Among them are the approximate military strength of the major princes and the detailed figures of the Ming army.

After Wang Jing saw the information.

The pressure in my heart began to increase.

The Huai army he established has risen all the way, defeated nearly a dozen princes and forces, and developed to the point of dominating the Jianghuai.

With 40 soldiers under his command and hundreds of thousands of other soldiers and horses, he can pull millions of troops at the limit, which can be called powerful.

But in the world of Shenzhou.

Wang Jing is not the only protagonist, such as the Ming Dynasty, Liu Song Dynasty, and Eastern Jin Dynasty, these dynasties have profound backgrounds, and when they did not burst out their full strength, they grew to an astonishing level.

Especially the Ming Dynasty.

The military force expanded rapidly, and the food and grass obtained from the farms were also amazing. There was never a problem of food shortage in the conquests from east to west.

Just like Wang Jing today, in the land surrounded by heroes in the south of the Yangtze River, he also attacked and fought hard all the way, defeated all powerful enemies successively, and entered Jinling.

There are 80 soldiers alone.It is stronger than the current Huai army.

While Wang Jing was expanding and developing, the Ming Dynasty was also expanding at an extremely fast speed.

However, at this time, the expansion momentum of the Ming Dynasty has slowed down. Liu Song and the Eastern Jin Dynasty are also not soft persimmons. They want to win the two major dynasties, and some will fight.

Listening to Wang Jing's words, Bu Zhi, Han Xizai and others also looked serious.

Wang Jing said: "Time is running out now, and the matter of expanding the army must be done as soon as possible. I am planning to maintain 100 million soldiers this time! Only a million troops can have the confidence to cross the south of the Yangtze River!"

"A million troops!"

Bu Zhi, Han Xizai, Su Wei, Xie Hui and others were shocked.

They have been in the Shenzhou world for nearly three years, but their thinking still retains the concept of the original world,

With an army of 100 million, only Yang Guang and Fu Jian had assembled such a terrifying number of troops in the entire history.

As for the rumored Cao Mengde's 83 troops and Liu Bei's 72 troops...they are all false. The total strength of Cao Cao's Battle of Chibi was only about 30, or even less than 30.

And Liu Bei's soldiers and horses in the battle of Yiling were only [-].It is equal to Lu Xun's [-], and the two sides are evenly matched. It is not at all a victory with less.

A unified dynasty.Under normal circumstances, the army that can be used to go out to fight is only about 60 to 60. For example, when Qin State destroyed Chu, all the troops used were only [-].

There is also the civil fortress of Zhu Qizhen, the god of war in the Ming Dynasty, which is also about 50.This is the essence of the dynasty soldiers and horses.

Once the army is defeated, the country will be in turmoil.

At this time, Wang Jing said that he would expand the number of soldiers to 100 million. This is still a soldier, not counting the soldiers of the guards and the inspectors of the prefectures and counties... Immediately shocked several civil and military personnel.

But they quickly reacted.

"Millions of soldiers are indeed necessary! I thought before that the number of soldiers should be expanded to 60... After listening to the words of the king, I thought that the king had thought carefully and carefully!"

Han Xizai said.

Bu Zhi agreed: "That's right, the Ming court had 80 soldiers, and Liu Song, Eastern Jin, and Southern Qi all had hundreds of thousands of troops. If you want to conquer Jiangnan, you must double the number of soldiers!"

"At present, our army has a total of 40 soldiers, some of which have been lost after repeated battles, but at this time the strength has been replenished!"

"Choose 30 soldiers from Yang Shuang's defeated army, as well as more than [-] prisoners of war from the former Qin Dynasty and [-] prisoners from the Sui Army Navy who made contributions in digging the river channel... That's [-]!"

Bu Zhi is the privy envoy in charge of the military affairs of the Privy Council Province, and has a great say in the reorganization and expansion of the army.

He knew everything well, and quickly arranged for half of the army expansion.

Yang Shuang's soldiers and horses have been honed in a fierce battle, and they are all rare elites. However, some of their soldiers have killed too much and have not recovered, so they only selected [-] elites from among them.

As for the more than [-] prisoners of war from the former Qin Dynasty and the [-] prisoners of the Sui Army Navy that Bu Zhi said... These prisoners helped Wang Jing dig the river, and they were the heroes of the Huai Army's invasion of Yangzhou.

They also got Wang Jing's promise that after digging the river, they would no longer be prisoners, but ordinary people under the rule of the Huai army.

These people are all young and old soldiers who are strong and strong.

It's a pity to put them back to farm, and they just took advantage of the situation to be incorporated into the army.

The number of 100 million soldiers, after a little counting, is 70.The remaining 30 is also easy to solve.

Zhang Shicheng, Yu Wenhua and the defeated soldiers can each choose 5 people.

The remaining 20.

Promote and recruit from guards in Sihong and other places, as well as ordinary people.

Because the Huai army has won consecutive battles, and the soldiers in the army are well paid and rewarded with land, which is very enviable, so the folks in Sihong and other places are very enthusiastic about joining the army.

Bu Zhi is very aware of this situation, so he deliberately reserved a quota of [-] people, which is specially used to recruit young people from the people.

In fact, the quota of 10 people is still small.

Under the rule of the Huai Army, the number of young and strong people who want to join the army far exceeds this number, but Wang Jing said that the expansion of the army must hurry up.

In addition to what Wang Jing said just now about the selection of elite captive soldiers... That's why Bu Zhi put the source of the expansion of the army on the captives.

"Yes, I will do as you said! When I go back, I will seriously think about the specific strategy for expanding the army, and then write it as a memorial and hand it to Gu!"

Wang Jing showed a satisfied look.

Bu Zhi is known as both civil and military, but if he is placed in the entire history, his ability is about first-class. Wu Lu is not as good as Zhou Yu and Lu Xun, and Wenzhi is not as good as Zhang Zhao.

If the bonus of fame and luck is not counted, his ability is even slightly inferior to Su Wei.

At any rate, Su Wei was also an important minister who assisted Yang Jian to rule the world in history, and he also calmed down Lingnan...

However, Bu Zhi has a very good personality, has a very upright posture, and does not have that kind of flattery. With the increase of experience, his ability to handle affairs is constantly improving.

Let him do some temple calculation analysis, army reorganization, dispatch troops, and do a good job.

As for acting as the strategist who planned and planned the war... After Xie Hui arrived, Bu Zhi could give up this aspect.

"The minister takes orders!"

Bu Zhi hand over should be.

After talking about the expansion of the army, the next thing started, Wang Jing said: "Pei Ju has sent someone to send a memorial to Liu Song, saying that he has met Liu Yilong!"

"Liu Yilong agreed to form an alliance with our army. Our army will provide Liu Song with food, grass and weapons in exchange for Liu Song's silk, mineral deposits, and spiritual stones..."
