As long as the words "national mobilization" are put on display in any era, then the situation will definitely not be trivial.

There is nothing wrong with the so-called national mobilization, which is to conscript all those who are registered as soldiers and reorganize them into one army after another in the form of a state.

A man suitable to become a soldier can be a young and strong man, a teenager of thirteen or fourteen years old, or an old man with gray temples. To put it no joke, the whole world is ...... now Whether it is the West or the East, there is a habit of collecting healthy women to become soldiers, for example, there are 50,000 strong women in the current 300,000 army of the Chu State, and Zhao, Yan, Wei, Han, Qi, and Qin are naturally also healthy women in the army, and Lu Zhe mobilized at least 1.4 million troops this time, and there are nearly 150,000 women in the army.

From the Spring and Autumn Period to the Warring States Period, and even to the Qin Dynasty, men are fighting at war, no matter what work is done by women (it seems that no matter what era, unless it is a rich girl, who doesn't have to work?). ）。

For thousands of years, there have been endless wars for a long time, and in many countries, men have died in battle, and it has become a matter of course for women to go to war when there are not enough men. By the end of the Spring and Autumn period, women also began to go to the battlefield, and the most typical thing was that whose concubine or something was also formed into an army, and the one who cut down the concubine of a certain king when he was cultivating prestige.

At this moment, women in the army are not nurses or other positions, they are characters who fight like men with weapons, and there is no difference in treatment between men and women as soldiers.

"Qi women are also being drafted, and the number is as high as 300,000!?" Isn't Lu Zhe wondering that Qi country recruits women, is he surprised that Qi country women are so strong?

Although women are also drafted into soldiers, there is a standard for what kind of women are recruited, and the standard is generally that they can lift a stone lock weighing 50 pounds.

The Qi State is desperate and martial, and the healthy women have recruited 300,000. How many men will be there that will be drafted???

"The minimum number will not be less than two million." Kuaitong's face was very wrong, and he licked his lips nailously: "The total population of Qi should be more than eight million, and the benchmark for building an army of four out of one should ......"

Lu Zhe's side is not only four out of four, the total population of 5 million or so has gathered 1.4 million, which is much more ferocious than Qi Wang Danke, but he did not promulgate any national mobilization, and he will gather so many people under such conditions, isn't it because of the convenience of the military service system of quarterly soldiers. Besides, it is true that he has gathered so many people, but he is also bluffing and conducting armed demonstrations. I never thought that I really wanted to maintain such a large number of troops, at most, to keep the army at the base of 600,000.

"That means that even if the Qi State is armed with two million, it will not cause damage to the country?" Lu Zhe knew that Qi was economically developed, and it was not broken during the battle of unification: "But...... Isn't that right? Could it be that Qi didn't do anything after the restoration of the country, but he was working hard to build weapons and make battle robes? ”

It's not impossible, Lu Zhe's side can hoard more than three million battle robes in two years, Qidi has been a big country for weaving cloth and making clothes since ancient times, and it is much more convenient than Lu Zhe's side to hoard soldiers' robes. However, in metallurgy, there seems to be no advantage on the Qidi side, after all, the Central Plains has been inhabited by the Chinese people for so long. The ore that should have been mined is almost finished, and there are still enough resources to make enough weapons for two million people in two years.

"They're learning from us to play deterrence, right?" Lu Zhe asked uncertainly.

"How so?" Kuai Tong obviously has a little idea: "Although I don't know where the Qi country got so many weapons to arm the two million army, and I don't know where the Qi country got so much food to feed so many troops, but once the whole country mobilizes the order." That wouldn't be fake. ”

The reason why Qi Yan suddenly formed an alliance was that Qi had withdrawn from the competition for Guangyang County, and at the same time, Qi had also reached a series of agreements with Yan, including the fact that Qi people went to Liaodong and the newly occupied peninsula (Korean Peninsula) to develop mines.

There are a large number of iron ore mines in Liaodong. The Korean Peninsula is not only rich in iron ore but also rich in resources, including fur resources. And the thing that Qi Yan reached an agreement on was that about eight months ago, it was not difficult for Qi to produce weapons to a certain extent. However, it is possible that the newly restored Qi State will hoard more than two million battle robes in two years. It is certainly impossible to hoard more than two million weapons. In fact, Qi State's recruitment of two million is not a bluff to fool people, but the number of troops that can be equipped with weapons is around 600,000, and the rest should be armed with farm tools or a stick or something.

As for grain, the land of Luqi ushered in a bumper harvest year last year, and the country of Qi only left the necessary grain to the people, and all the rest were collected and state-owned, and it may be a little tense to maintain a year's grain stock for two million people, but there should be no problem in saving one province.

Lu Zhe's territory does not border with Qi State, and the intelligence system has just been built, and the simple intelligence part is currently focusing on the two large countries directly bordering Chu and Qin, and the construction of the intelligence system of Zhao, Yan, and Qi is still just in the stage of rollout.

In the absence of correspondingly important information, it is not surprising to know what the situation of Qi State's gathering of two million people this time is, and it is difficult for them to recognize the background and actual needs of Qi's national mobilization from incomplete information.

This time, the comprehensive mobilization of the Qi State was originally planned, even if there was no Huimeng incident and the rumor that Lu Zhe had mobilized a million troops, the Qi State would have carried out a nationwide mobilization.

Cause? It may be a bit spoofed to say, but it is definitely not a lie, it is the Qi State that surrendered to the Qi State without a fight during the War of Unification...... At least the Qi royal family left too much humiliation, and under a mentality of washing away the shame and regaining self-esteem no matter what, the Qi State was going to take advantage of the grassland Hu people to attack Qin when they went south. So, the mobilization of the whole country of Qi really has little to do with this alliance, if you insist on saying that it has anything to do with it, it is just that it has been advanced.

Of course, no matter how Lu Zhe's side thought about it, he would never have thought that Qi Guo had already made up his mind to mobilize the whole country, and he was a little nervous that it was related to this alliance, whether it was a misunderstanding or not, it was difficult to say for a while.

The all-round mobilization of Qi was obviously unaware of the nation's knowledge in advance.

Yan Guo, who became an ally of Qi State, was okay, Yan Wang and a cadre of ministers were originally in the same camp as Qi Wang Dan, and when they asked, they learned that Qi had already made up their minds to mobilize the whole country, and they were also aimed at Qin State, which had destroyed Qi State. It doesn't matter whether the Yan people believe it or not, what they can do is to quickly send people to Yandi to issue a mobilization, and the mobilized manpower will make arrangements for defending the border on the one hand, and prepare for the attack on Qin.

Chu State, who was next to Lu'an, was taken aback by Qi State's ruthless national mobilization, calmed down and thought about it carefully, even if he didn't mobilize Qi and wanted to move Chu State, with the current situation of Chu State, it was not enough to resist, so he simply believed that Qi State was not going to target Chu State, saying that this time Qi State would also let Qin State taste the taste of destroying the country. Of course, according to Qi Wangdan's statement, if Lu Zhe's side didn't open his eyes, Qi Guo wouldn't mind cleaning it up with Lu Zhe.

Zhang Liang and Wei Bao, who had already gone back, learned that Qi had issued a national mobilization order, and they ran to Si Zhi to see Lu Zhe.

This time, Zhang Liang and Wei Bao didn't talk about anything else, and they didn't even mention the matter of Qi at all, but discussed the possibility of the two countries moving their capitals to Nanyang.

Lu Zhe looked at Zhang Liang with a anxious face, and it was difficult to regard the Zhang Liang in front of him as the "strategizing" Zhang Liang in the historical records as the same person.

The current Zhang Liang should not have encountered Taishi Gong, that is to say, he did not get the military book of Jiang Ziya. However, whether or not you help someone lift their shoes to obtain the art of war is not so crucial, what Lu Zhe can't understand the most is why Zhang Liang doesn't have the wisdom that a wise man should have?

If Zhang Liang knew what Lu Zhe was thinking, he would definitely smile bitterly. In many cases, wisdom can only achieve support, and in the face of absolute weakness, in the face of absolutely powerful opponents, superb wisdom is only to control losses in the smallest range.

In fact, wisdom can only be used when the gap between the two sides is not very different, and an ant with an incomparably high IQ can escape the fate of being trampled to death in the face of an elephant without wisdom? Well, you can't kill with one foot, the elephant really wants to kill the ants, just step on a few more feet.

Lü Zhe mobilized, Qi mobilized, Yan mobilized, Chu mobilized...... All the mobilization was mobilized, and the Qin State, which was the first to carry out the mobilization, was also affected and had to mobilize further, and the result was good, and the land of China became barracks everywhere.

When the parties stopped in place for nearly two months, and the deadline for the alliance was only three days left, the state of Chu could not stand it at first when it received a large number of Lu Zhe's troops moving towards the border of the state of Chu.

Xiang Liang sent Xiang Bo to run around, first to the camp of the Qi and Yan coalition forces, and finally to the Si period, when he met Lu Zhe, he did not talk about the matter of the army pressing the border, but told the opinions of the kings of Qi, Yan, Chu, and Zhao.

"All sides only bring 50,000 soldiers and horses to Shen, and the rest of the soldiers and horses must not get close to the alliance for 1.30 miles?" Lu Zhe repeated what Xiang Bo had just said: "And that the countries will retreat fifty miles from the armies displayed on the borders of other countries? ”

Xiang Bo maintained a bowing posture: "This is the meaning of the kings. ”

Qi Yan's tough attitude is a bit qualified, but the movements of the armies of the countries are purely too serious, and Lu Zhe agrees that all parties will only bring 50,000 soldiers and horses to the location of the alliance, and they will not be able to deal with the problem of any border army at all.

"What do the kings say about the Qin State Guanmeng?" Lu Zhe asked again.

Xiang Bo frowned deeply, Lu Zhe put on a posture of approaching the border of Chu State and did not retract his mind, then Chu State would not have much room in the alliance, if he didn't want Lu Zhe to really attack Chu State on a large scale, he could only choose neutrality instead of participating in Qi Yan's scheme. As for the Qin State...... To be honest, how can the Chu State have the leisure time to take care of it now? (To be continued......)
