Listening to Wang Yi say this, Dongyi Island at this time is indeed very weak, and he Qi Xiaobai wants to take advantage of the situation to enter, and it is indeed possible to unify Dongyi Island.

Wang Yi looked at Qi Xiaobai and said, "As long as Duke Huan gives me support, as long as 50,000 soldiers and horses, I can unify Dongyi Island!" ”

The forces of Dongyi Island are very scattered, the most powerful is only 10,000 people, and the few are even only a few hundred people, and after 50,000 elite soldiers arrive on Dongyi Island, they can instantly become the largest force in that place.

And after Sado Keiko on the side heard Wang Yi's words, she muttered in her heart, even if such reinforcements help the Sado family, what's the point?

Using Sado Island as a base to unify Dongyi Island, this means that the Sado family will have to obey Qi in the future, which is nothing more than that Sado Island will not be attacked by his hostile forces, but will be occupied by Qi State.

This is a wolf sent away, and another tiger is coming......

Keiko Sado wanted to say something at this time, but what could she say? If Qi Jun didn't help his family, her family would still fall, and her family might die a tragic death at that time.

The daimyo fought each other, and when a daimyo defeated a daimyo, the daimyo would usually slaughter all the defeated daimyo families in order to show their victory.

Generally speaking, Qi Xiaobai helped the Sado family, which can be regarded as saving the Sado family, but Qi Xiaobai wants to help, of course, he doesn't really want to save the Sado family, but more like it is for the Qi country.

And the reason why Wang Yi said this to Qi Xiaobai was because Luo Fangshi was in his position, and he saw Luo Fangshi's performance just now, he knew that he was not Luo Fangshi's opponent, and it was unlikely that he would want to regain his previous position.

If he didn't do anything, his position as a general would probably not be secured, and he would have to do something for Qi Xiaobai.

He knew that Qi was in the recovery period after the Great War in the Central Plains, and he wanted to lead the troops to help the Qi State settle in the Central Plains, but the national strength of the Qi State did not allow it, and he did not think that he could lead the army to the Central Plains successfully.

So he aimed the signs of meritorious service at the Dongyi Island Country, and during the period when he followed Sado Keiko in the Dongyi Island Country, he was idle, and he had been paying attention to the situation of Dongyi Island, the geography of Dongyi Island, and the war between the north and the south.

In the end, a conclusion was drawn, Dongyi Island is very chaotic, there are many major forces, as long as a strong force appears, gradually broken, Dongyi Island can be unified.

Before Wang Yi came back, he wanted to tell Qi Xiaobai about this, but at that time, his idea was to let Qi Xiaobai choose a general to go east to Dongyi Island.

However, now that his status is in crisis, he must make a great contribution to stabilize his position, so he chose to personally lead the Eastern Crusade.

After listening to Wang Yi's introduction, Guan Zhong on the side nodded and looked at Qi Xiaobai: "Bai'er, if what General Wang said is true, this can indeed help us occupy Dongyi Island!" ”

Qi Xiaobai looked at Wang Yi: "Is 50,000 elite soldiers enough?" ”

Although the state of Qi is in the recovery period, it is impossible to fight with the princes on a large scale, but it is still possible to use an army of 50,000 to 100,000 to fight a barbarian.

For the Qi country, the Dongyi Island country is indeed a barbarian, and of course, in the eyes of the Central Plains country, the Qi country is also a barbarian......

Wang Yi looked at Qi Xiaobai and said: "50,000 elite soldiers are enough, as short as three years, as long as five years, I will definitely be able to send a unified Dongyi Island country to Duke Huan!" ”

Qi Xiaobai nodded, to be honest, three years, or five years, to help Qi State get Dongyi Island, it is not long, after all, Dongyi Island Country is a country with a territory similar to that of Chu State.

Moreover, Dongyi Island Country is densely populated, unlike Chu State, where many places are deserted.

Of course, the soldiers used are 50,000, not hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers to the east, so five years is not a long time, after all, the major forces are scattered, and your 50,000 elite soldiers cannot fight 66 forces at once, after all, if you want to invade in an all-out way, people will definitely unite.

If there are 500,000 elite soldiers, it is still possible to launch a full-scale attack on the Dongyi Island Country, but the Qi State cannot suppress the Dongyi Island Country with an army of 500,000.

Although the financial situation has improved somewhat, the elite soldiers of the Qi State have been lost, and the samurai army is still in the training period.

Moreover, Qi Xiaobai also wants to have a very good financial system for Qi State, and Qi State's current economy is all dependent on taxes.

Although Qi's taxes are not low, but just relying on taxes, Qi Xiaobai Jue is still too little, he wants to compete for hegemony, he must have a huge finance, in order to support his ambition to compete for hegemony.

50,000 elite soldiers, and the transportation cost of 50,000 elite soldiers is not low, and the expedition to Dongyi Island is equivalent to Qi Xiaobai's 200,000 troops to attack the finances of Zhao State.

After all, the cost of shipping is relatively large, a big ship can only pull a thousand people at most, and 50,000 people want to send at least 50 big ships to Dongyi Island at one time.

There are only five military ships in Qi, so if Qi wants to pull 50,000 people to Dongyi Island at a time, it has to requisition merchant ships.

The merchant ships of the merchants are all armed merchant ships, and their performance is much better than that of the military merchant ships of the Qi State......

After all, the center of Qi is on land, so it is necessary to prevent pirates or use the navy, so they did not put much effort into the equipment and weapons of the navy, which made the equipment of the navy relatively backward.

Of course, Qi Xiaobai transported these 50,000 people to Dongyi Island Country, and he couldn't requisition many large merchant ships, after all, there were not many large ships in the Qi Navy, and there were still a lot of medium-sized warships and small warships, and these ships could also transport soldiers.

Qi Xiaobai was enough to requisition twenty large armed merchant ships......

Qi Xiaobai looked at Wang Yi: "Okay, I'll give you 50,000 elite soldiers to conquer the Dongyi Island Country!" ”

Qi Xiaobai then said: "The conquest of Dongyi Island Country is a small matter, and your main purpose is to rescue the Sado family!" ”

The latter sentence was said by Qi Xiaobai to Sado Keiko, telling Sado Keiko, I am still very concerned about your family.

Of course, this is also a scene, and Keiko Sado also knows it, but she didn't say anything, after all, Qi Guo gave her family reinforcements, and her family was saved.

Wang Yi looked at Qi Xiaobai: "Duke Huan, his subordinates will definitely live up to their mission!" ”

And at this time, Guan Zhong looked at Qi Xiaobai: "This Eastern Expedition to the Dongyi Island Country, what do you want to use the soldiers of that legion?" ”

As soon as Guan Zhong asked, Qi Xiaobai began to ponder, thinking about which legion to use, the warrior legion is the ace legion of the Qi country, although it is still in the training period, but its combat effectiveness far exceeds that of the rest of the legions.

But this legion Qi Xiaobai can't be handed over to Wang Yi, this is Qi Xiaobai's trump card army, and it has to be used on the tip of the knife.

And the Dongyi Island country is in chaos like this, killing chickens with a knife?

There is no need for a samurai legion!

Qi Xiaobai looked at Wang Yi: "Do you think the three major legions, should you use the soldiers of that legion to go east to conquer Dongyi Island?" ”

Wang Yi thought for a while, then looked at Qi Xiaobai and said, "The subordinates, the soldiers of the Qingzhou Legion, are the most suitable for the eastward expedition to Dongyi Island!" ”
