Chapter 824: Great Expansion
Chapter 824: The Great Expansion of the Army (Page 1/1)
"The king is determined to expand his army."
Lu Yao's voice fell, and the faces of the ministers below were different. This short sentence clearly shows that Zhu Ya is about to face war again. All the ministers, including Xun Yu, all changed their complexions.
Unlike Xun Yu and other strategists, Lu Zhi and the generals were all ecstatic. To tell the truth, everyone is really suffocated now.
Lu Yao prefers the South China Sea fleet led by Zhou Yu, and the world is full of turns, but Zhou Yu is Lu Yao's disciple, and there is nothing wrong with being a teacher. Except for Zhou Yu, Zhao Yun and other Lu Yao favored the generals, and the others could only brush up on the bandits and rogues, and they had a good time patrolling everywhere. Even the three major fleets of the east, west, and north are now reduced to patrols, and there is no goal in finding someone to fight.
Now that Lu Yao is determined to expand the army, that is everyone's gospel.
Old man Lu Zhi talked about juvenile madness, and he stood up to support the generals: "The prince is wise, as the old saying goes: forgetting the war will be dangerous." The prince can be prepared for danger in times of peace, which is really the blessing of all the people in Zhuya. ”
Xun Yu and other advisers: "......"
This shameless old man can even say such a thing, isn't it?
Expanding the army is not a trivial matter, it costs money to recruit troops, it costs money to buy horses, it also costs money to pay for armor, food, grass, etc., Zhu Ya can develop rapidly, and it is inseparable from abundant funds. Now that the army is expanding, isn't that tantamount to squeezing out the funds for the development of the territory?
Lu Yao didn't give the civil and military forces a chance to spray, and then ordered: "Zhuya already has four fleets in the southeast, northwest and northwest, and this king wants to add four fleets of Zhenhai, Dinghai, Pinghai, and Yuhai. ”
When Xun Yu heard this, the whole person was not good.
It is not enough to expand the army, whether it is soldiers, horses, food and grass, although it costs a lot, it will not be so frustrated. can expand the water division, then the cost will be great.
The boat is made of Zhu Ya, although it only needs to be costed, but the cost of wood and other aspects can be considerable. In addition, training a qualified sailor is much more expensive than the Army.
A fully staffed ordinary ship, carrying a thousand people, is enough to expand at least 10,000 soldiers and horses.
And Lu Yao's expansion is a full fleet of four fleets.
"Lord Wang......" Xun Yu came out of the queue with grief and indignation, planning to go out and fight Lu Zhi to the death, but also to persuade Lu Yao not to take too big a step, easy to pull the egg.
Lu Yao didn't give him this opportunity to admonish, raised his hand and said, "Wen Ruo doesn't need to say much, this king has his own measure." When he was young, the king went north to the Central Plains to collect debts. I think that one trillion gold is enough to expand the four major fleets such as Zhenhai. ”
Xun Yu's whole person is not good again, and he is heartbroken.
There is a trillion gold, and the development of Zhuya can at least rise by another percent. But the lord insisted on going his own way and spent the money on expanding the army.
Lu Yao saw that his chief manager was in pain, slightly embarrassed, and said in his heart If you know that I still have two trillion gold in cash, will you come to beat me?
At the beginning, Sumitomo Ning Ninghao stepped forward and finalized a sky-high order of 3 trillion gold at a time, and he intercepted all the money and did not leave it to Xun Yu. One trillion gold was lent to the Huaxia Alliance in order to cooperate with the hermit's actions, and the remaining two trillion gold was one of the back roads he left for the future.
At this time, Lu Zhi and other generals also looked at each other.
Sailor, this is not very good. Looking at the entire Zhuya, there are very few generals who can serve as the governor of the navy and command a fleet. At the beginning, all the famous generals of Jiangdong who came over from the destruction of Eastern Wu and surrendered to Cheng were all placed in the four major fleets in the southeast, northwest and northwest, and there were no superfluous generals to lead the new naval fleet.
Lu Zhi hesitated and persuaded: "Lord Wang, Zhuya already has four fleets in the southeast, northwest and northwest, why do you need to add Zhenhai and other four fleets?" ”
Lu Yao smiled bitterly in his heart.
He didn't know that the four fleets of the southeast, northwest, and northwest were enough to protect Zhuya. But now, just keeping Zhu Ya alive is no longer enough to satisfy him.
As the saying goes, there are three holes in the cunning rabbit.
The person who seized power from the hermit has begun to mobilize forces from all sides to target Zhu Ya, although he is concealed and has a reasonable excuse to cover up, but in his eyes, it can be said that Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone.
The reason why no one dares to mess with Zhu Ya is that the Xanadu Water Master is invincible. Once there is a shortage of timber resources for shipbuilding, it will expose an Achilles heel to the originally seamless Zhuya.
The ship's reserves are not enough to sustain the attrition.
The sea is moody, and even he can't guarantee that there will be 100% unnecessary wastage. If there is a real war in the future, it will be difficult to avoid battle losses just by relying on the advantages of black technology such as dragon cannons and other big killing weapons.
There are two sources of timber resources for shipbuilding in Zhuya. One is the Central Plains, and the other is Dongying District. However, now the Huaxia Alliance does not know what force it has used to cut off the way for Zhuya to import timber resources from the Central Plains, and it is even more trying to cut off the way in Dongying District.
This is a very bad sign.
He is quite handy with Sumitomo Ningning's control now, but Sumitomo Ningning, a woman, is not small, and she may bite back at any time, and she really can't help but guard against it.
Unwilling to consume local resources, and the external import channels were also in danger of being cut off, he set his sights on Nanyang, which was extremely rich in timber resources, and planned to open up another way.
To go to the South Seas, you need a fleet, and Cleopatra provided Alexandria, and this piece of fat cannot be eaten. In these two directions, at least two fleets will go. And he still has to take a fleet to Yingdao to complete the marriage, and there is only one fleet left to garrison Zhuya, which is too flawed.
He can't afford the consequences.
It is imperative for the Navy Division to expand its army.
"I've made up my mind, and I can't talk about it again." Lu Yao shook his head, shook off the distracting thoughts in his mind, and made a categorical statement.
Lu Zhi was helpless, so he had to persuade again: "There are very few people who are good at fighting in Zhuya, and I hope that the prince will think twice." ”
Xun Yu and other strategists took advantage of the situation to come out together and persuade each other: "Please also ask the prince to think twice." ”
Lu Yao seemed to be ignorant, and Qiangang arbitrarily ordered: "Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Ling Cao have been conscientious and hard working since they voted for Zhuya. Now the naval division has added four new armies, and the three generals are all governors, each leading the three armies of Dinghai, Pinghai, and Yuhai. ”
Cheng Pu served as the deputy governor under Zhou Yu, and he was also present at the moment, and heard that Lu Yao had appointed himself as the governor and commanded an army, although he was surprised, he couldn't help but be excited to hug his fists: "It is difficult for the minister to repay the prince's appreciation in this life, and the only way to repay the prince is to swear to die." ”
Huang Gai and Ling Cao both served as deputy governors of the other two fleets, but they did not thank them for the first time.
Lu Zhi and the others heard that Lu Yao had drawn three generals from the four fleets to lead the new army, and they didn't bother anymore. With the strength of Cheng Pu and other three veterans, it is more than enough to lead an army, but he is very curious about the belonging of the Zhenhai First Army, according to Lu Yao's previous personal name, the Zhenhai Fleet is obviously the head of the new four fleets.
Lu Yao paused, his gaze swept between the people below, and finally fixed on Lu Su, who was under Xun Yu and in front of Jia Xu, and said with a faint smile: "Zijing, are you willing to serve as the governor and lead the Zhenhai fleet?" ”
Lu Su was stunned, he didn't think that the post of governor of the Zhenhai Fleet, the head of the four fleets, would finally fall on his head, and he came back to his senses after a while, and hurriedly refused: "I'm afraid that the minister is not competent, and I ask the prince to find another virtuous." ”
Lu Yao was noncommittal: "This king only asks you if you want or not." ”
Lu Su hesitated, and said with a sad face: "Appreciated by the prince, the minister can only have his liver and brain." ”
