Chapter 616： army deployment

  Chapter 616 Army Deployment

  The time has come to October 25, the third year of Tianxuan, and the peace period obtained by defeating the Mughal Empire's invasion fleet in Yizhen territory has exceeded Qu Mao's expectations.

  However, it cannot be expected that after defeating the Mughal Empire's invasion fleet, it will completely dispel the idea of ​​all forces invading Yizhen's territory.

Therefore, Qu Mao still needs to continue to force the army to expand. On the afternoon of October 25th in the third year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao summoned Zhao Pan and Chafidel from the Yizhen Territorial Army, Hua Tielan and Su Buqing from the Expeditionary Army, and Zhang Da from the Garrison Army. , Zhang Yao, held an army deployment meeting in the living room on the first floor of the lord's hut in Yizhen.

  After a group of heroes gathered, Qu Mao asked directly: "Everyone, how is the current strength?"

Zhao Pan said: "My lord, a few days ago, Lord Su Yan, Lord Kong Ming, and Lord Xuande split the army of Yizhen Territory, and the first-tier soldiers and second-tier fighters were turned into garrison troops, so now the army has a total of 215,000 people. Left and right, Mr. Chafidel will report to you one by one."

Chafidel said: "My lord, there is currently 1 soldier of the eighth rank, 47 fighters of the seventh rank, 1612 fighters of the sixth rank, 3107 fighters of the fifth rank, and a total of 4767 fighters of the fifth rank and above. It is a high-end combat force, and has not been organized into troops. It can be regarded as its own combat unit. A few fighters of the fifth rank and above are organized into the long-range legion, cavalry legion and magician legion.

  The reorganized Yizhen Territory Army is mainly composed of Tier 3 fighters and Tier 4 fighters. Currently, there are 60,000 Tier 4 fighters and 150,000 Tier 3 fighters.

  The territory army of Yizhen has a total of 214,767 people. "

   Qu Mao nodded and said to Zhang Da: "Zhang Da, you haven't been to the lord's hut for a long time. Now the security forces are in charge of you and Zhang Yao. Let's talk about the specific situation."

Zhang Da nodded and said, "Yes, thank you sir. At present, the Yizhen Territory Garrison is still in the construction stage, and his subordinates believe that the coastal defense landing battle should also be handed over to the Garrison. After all, the Garrison is the Yizhen Territory Army, The base of the expeditionary force.

  The garrison received a total of 130,000 second-tier fighters and 160,000 first-tier fighters, with a total strength of 290,000. In addition, there were a total of 120,000 zero-tier militias, but the zero-tier militia was not included in the official establishment of the garrison.

  The 10,000 Tier 2 fighters who were being upgraded in the barracks were not counted, but the 15,000 Tier 1 fighters who were being upgraded were counted. "

   Qu Mao’s face turned serious, and he said: "The army is 215,000, and the security force is 290,000. The total is only 500,000, which is far from the 1 million I want."

  Zhao Pan, Chafidel, Zhang Da and Zhang Yao set their sights on Hua Tielan and Su Buqing together.

  Su Buqing said: "My lord, the expeditionary force is divided into the navy and the army. The navy waits until Master Li Huamei reports to you next time, and my subordinates will report the situation of the expeditionary force and the army.

  The expeditionary force received a total of 450,000 soldiers from Liuwang Principality, including about 250,000 soldiers. In addition, Mr. Sunan provided a total of 300,000 third-tier fighters and 300,000 army troops above third-tier fighters twice.

  However, some of the second-tier soldiers and first-tier fighters, as well as more than 10,000 fourth-tier light cavalry soldiers, were transferred away by Mr. Zhao Pan..."

   Qu Mao said: "Su Buqing, let's talk about the result directly. Zhao Pan took away the fourth-tier light cavalry soldiers of the expeditionary army. Then you can take away all the third-tier princess guard troops in the army. I remember that this army has the largest number of troops."

Su Buqing cupped his hands and continued: "My lord, as of now, the total number of soldiers in the expeditionary force is 401,500, including 1,500 fifth-tier fighters, 100,000 fourth-tier fighters, and 300,000 third-tier fighters. Of course, the navy also has about 1,500 soldiers. 200,000 people."

   Qu Mao glanced at Hua Tielan, and said: "Hua Tielan, the expeditionary army does not have to obtain soldiers from Liuwang Principality, this number is not enough.

  The equivalent military strength of Liuwang Principality is estimated to be about 1.8 million. How can this small military force help Su Yan restore the country? "

Hua Tielan said: "My lord, Lord Su Buqing has been in contact with Lord Sunan, and Lord Sunan promised that when our expeditionary force lands in Liuwang Dukedom to carry out Lord Su Yan's restoration of the country, he will be able to recruit at least 300,000 people in Liuwang Dukedom." Tier 3 fighters and fighters above Tier 3 fighters."

  Zhao Pan said: "My lord, Master Zhang Da is training 10,000 second-tier fighters, and his subordinates will share half of them with Master Hua Tielan. The army and the expeditionary force will each have 5,000 more soldiers.

  In the barracks, there are as many as 30,000 fighters from the fourth rank who have been upgraded to the fifth rank, and more than 20,000 fighters from the third rank who have been promoted to the fourth rank. Our strength is getting stronger and stronger.

   It is also said that 30,000 rank-0 militiamen are upgrading to rank-1 fighters. The rank-0 militias do not count as our military strength, but rank-1 fighters count. "

Qu Mao sighed, and said: "The garrison army is 290,000, the army is 215,000, the expeditionary force is 400,000, and there are 10,000 unstated second-tier fighters. We have a total of only 945,000 fighters in the zero-level militia that Wan is training.

   Of course, our current total population has not reached 5 million. With so many army soldiers, we cannot be too demanding.

If there is no accident in November, our Yizhen Territory can not only increase its own population by about 200,000, but also get a reinforcement army with a total number of about 750,000. It is more based on the army. I hope that by that time, our army can exceed 1.5 million people.

   There is only 55,000 people short of 1 million, so Zhao Pan and you have to continue to expand the army, and you must convert low-level fighters into high-level fighters as soon as possible.

  According to the intelligence of the navy, the enemy warships in the outer sea area are slowly approaching the islands in our territory of Yi Town. I hope you can train the soldiers you currently have as soon as possible. The stronger the combat effectiveness, the better. "

   Zhao Pan said: "My lord, training is definitely necessary. In November, there can be 750,000 troops. As long as the army exceeds 500,000, 1.5 million troops is certainly not a problem.

200,000 self-owned residents can at least ensure that our army will expand another 50,000 troops, and we still have prisoners of war. As long as the enemy dares to invade our territory, the navy or army can increase the population of our Yizhen territory. If the population is sufficient, the army can certainly be expanded. "

Qu Mao nodded and said: "Well, let's do it according to our deployment. I still emphasize the number of high-level soldiers in our army. After all, we can't always think about fighting on the nine islands in the territory of Yi Town. We Sooner or later, you have to go out and fight on the main continent where you are fighting for hegemony.

   At night, I have to check the preparations of the navy. The enemy's new round of invasion of Yizhen's territory is about to begin, and our rare peace period is about to pass. I hope you will use the last time to improve our military strength as much as possible. "

  A group of army heroes said in unison: "Yes, my lord!"
