Chapter 29 Discussion
Inside the secret room.
Ye Jiuxing's cultivation is improving rapidly.
After refining his twenty-one years of cultivation, his strength had broken free from the shackles of the fifth level of the Purple Mansion Realm and reached the first level of the Awakening Realm.
boom!
Suddenly, Ye Jiuxing opened his eyes and two rays of golden light burst out.
The state of enlightenment!
It has been just over a month since I came into this world.
And in such a short period of time, he lived through the lives of many people.
Of course, Ye Jiuxing knows his own limitations. He can achieve what he has today entirely because of the system.
"It's time to get out of seclusion!"
Ye Jiuxing calculated the time. He had been "cultivating" for a total of three days. If nothing unexpected happened, the imperial army should be able to arrive outside Xingzhou in two days.
He must now go out and summon Bai Qi, Wu Yong and others to discuss strategies to repel the enemy.
Main hall.
Ye Jiuxing sat high in the throne.
Bai Qi, Cao Chun, Wu Yong, Zhu Wu, Ye An and others stood on both sides below, and in the middle, there was a map and a sand table of the area around Xingzhou.
At this time, various marks were marked on the sand table.
"How's it going?"
Ye Jiuxing asked.
"Return to my lord!"
Wu Yong stepped out of the line, bowed and saluted, saying: "I have sent people to inquire, and the enemy's main general this time is Wei Guang, leading an army of 350,000, including 50,000 top-level troops and 300,000 front-line troops!"
Top Legion!
Ye Jiuxing pondered and looked up the situation of the Dayu Dynasty army from the original owner's memory.
During the reign of the original owner, drastic reforms were carried out on the military, dividing the nearly two million troops in the Dayu Dynasty into three categories, mainly top-level legions, front-line troops, and second-line troops!
There are three top legions in total.
They are the Wind Controlling Army, the Eastern Expedition Army, and the Holy Dragon Legion!
The members of these three legions are strictly selected. They are all elite warriors who have fought in many battles, and their lowest strength is at the ninth level of the Kai Ling Realm. There are five people in a team, and there must be at least one warrior in the Purple Mansion Realm.
This is not the most terrifying thing. What really makes the enemy tremble is the commander of the army.
The commander-in-chief is a second-rank general!
The deputy commander is a third-rank general!
Further down, there are ten generals, who are commanded by fourth-rank generals!
Ye Jiuxing was speechless and felt sad for the original owner again.
The original owner was dedicated to the Dayu Dynasty and Empress Zhao Wan'er, and most importantly, he was loyal to them. For example, when it came to military reform, a normal person would have placed some of his confidants there to control the army.
Even if you have no second thoughts, you can use the army to protect yourself when you encounter danger.
But what about the original owner?
The generals of the three top legions were all arranged to be loyal to the royal family.
His own trusted men were mostly deployed in the front-line troops.
Loyal enough, right?
But the result?
Isn't it the end that all nine generations of your clan will be exterminated?
The key point is that the original owner governed the Dayu Dynasty too well, especially the three major legions, all of which had the strength to fight in the holy realm.
This undoubtedly caused him great harm, as he had to face a powerful country.
"Sick in the brain!"
Ye Jiuxing cursed inwardly and asked again: "Who is the top legion coming this time?"
"Eastern Expedition Army!"
Wu Yong replied.
Okay!
Among the three major legions, the Eastern Expedition Army was the weakest.
Ye Jiuxing thought to himself, then frowned and asked in a deep voice: "That's not right! I remember the commander of the Eastern Expedition Army was not Wei Guang!"
Wu Yong shook his head and cupped his hands, saying, "I heard that not long ago, the empress deposed the former commander of the Eastern Expedition Army and supported Wei Guang to take the position, and this Wei Guang is a close confidant of the empress."
Understood!
Ye Jiuxing understood what was said. After the empress drove him away, she dismissed many other people.
The former commander-in-chief of the Eastern Expedition Army was one of them.
As for Wei Guang, Ye Jiuxing knew this person. When the original owner was in power, the empress told the original owner many times to give Wei Guang some advice.
The original owner, of course, took the empress's orders very seriously, and focused on training Wei Guang, teaching by example, which significantly improved Wei Guang's governance and military capabilities. Now it seems that Wei Guang is just a pawn planted by the empress.
Now, Wei Guang is leading the Eastern Expedition Army, which is probably part of the empress's plan.
"Besides Wei Guang, there should be others"
Ye Jiuxing thought to himself that the empress was not stupid, but she was not very smart either. She was unable to come up with this plan, and there must be someone behind her giving her advice.
who can that be?
For a moment, many figures appeared in Ye Jiuxing's mind.
But in the end, he rejected them one by one.
Too little information!
There is no useful information at all!
It seems that we need to set up an intelligence agency in the future, otherwise we will be in the dark and won’t even know when the enemy has reached our doorstep.
[Ding! Activate the side quest: Kill the traitor Wei Guang, gain ten years of cultivation, and a chance to summon China's top heroes! ]
[Ding! Activate the side quest: Defeat the invasion of the imperial army, gain twenty years of cultivation, and a chance to summon the top Chinese army! ]
Just as Ye Jiuxing was thinking, a system prompt suddenly sounded in his mind.
Two side quests!
Ye Jiuxing's eyes flashed, and he was full of fighting spirit as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
He looked at Wu Yong and asked, "What about our side?"
"Seventy thousand!"
Wu Yong said in a deep voice: "We have incorporated some of the garrison troops of Xingzhou. Now we can mobilize a total of 70,000 troops, stationed at Black Tiger Cliff and Rushan Pass!"
"but."
At this point, Wu Yong paused and continued, "As the imperial army approaches, the attitude of the Jianfeng Sect has become somewhat uncertain!"
Sword Wind Sect!
Ye Jiuxing's gaze moved downward to the south of Xingzhou, his brows slightly furrowed.
Xingzhou is located on the border, far away from the imperial court, with a sparse population and few sects, only five lower sects and one middle sect.
The Jianfeng Sect is the only central sect in Xingzhou.
When attacking Taichuan City, the Jianfeng Sect was relatively honest and took the initiative to submit a letter of surrender, ready to submit.
However, after entering Taichuan City, Ye Jiuxing was busy practicing and ignored this matter.
"Send the order!"
Ye Jiuxing smiled and said quickly: "Cao Chun, you lead the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to the Jianfeng Sect and massacre them!"
kill!
The enemy is currently.
The Sword Wind Sect's wavering attitude made him deeply uneasy.
Even if the Jianfeng Sect was willing to surrender at this moment, he would not accept it. If the Jianfeng Sect suddenly rebelled after the war broke out, that would be a huge trouble.
There is only one chance!
If the Jianfeng Sect surrendered obediently and followed his orders, he would not make things difficult for the Jianfeng Sect.
Of course, supervision is essential!
it's good now!
If the Jianfeng Sect dares to have any dissenting thoughts, he can use this as an excuse to eliminate them.
"As ordered!"
Cao Chun stepped out and bowed respectfully.
With the speed of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, they can reach the Jianfeng Sect from Taichuan City in two hours at most.
Ye Jiuxing thought for a moment, and then ordered: "After destroying the Jianfeng Sect, don't come back, find a way to hide in Liangzhou."
The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are cavalry, and using them to defend the city is undoubtedly a waste.
However, running, surprise attacks, and going straight to the enemy's side are what the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are good at.
This arrangement has another advantage. Allowing the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to enter Liangzhou is equivalent to burying a mine in the enemy's rear that can be detonated at any time.
When necessary, it can play a vital role!
