Therefore, Zhang Zhongjun didn't bother to pay attention to the strange eyes of these retainers, and directly gave an order: "Select three million elite cavalry from the existing infantry, and the mounts and everything will be properly rationed, and let the old cavalrymen strengthen the riding training of the recruits! Pick out four million elite soldiers from the captured soldiers, and put the remaining one million infantry into them as grass-roots officers such as captains and even chiefs, and the officers above fifty commanders will be served by the samurai of the Kurokawa family! We need to gather these captive soldiers as soon as possible! Let them form combat effectiveness in a very short time!" ”

Zhang Zhongjun's series of words made the retainers present stunned, two million cavalry plus three million new cavalry is equal to five million cavalry, and the remaining one million on the infantry side, plus four million selected prisoners, that is, five million infantry.

Rely on, this is equivalent to an increase of 10 million elite troops at once! Coupled with the garrison troops stationed in various places, wouldn't the Kurokawa family have to have 20 million troops?

Isn't this financial power too heavy? But think about the countless materials that the lord cheats on, it seems that the problem of financial resources does not need to be considered, right?

So if there are too many soldiers, will it hinder the development of the territory? This is only 20 million soldiers, and there are still so many territories in the entire river territory that have not been received, and it seems that there are not many of them.

After all, in the past, the Kurokawa family had a field army of six million, and a garrison of several million, but now the field army has only expanded to 10 million, and the garrison may expand to 10 million. According to the future control of the entire river territory and the previous territory of only two counties, this expansion is not only not too much, but a little less.

Just when everyone couldn't help but want to make a suggestion, the lord expanded his forces to maintain the rule of the entire river domain. After all, in the past, there were six million field troops and millions of garrisons in the two counties, but now that the entire river territory of the seven or eight counties is expanding, how can the number of this force have to be doubled or tripled?

The expansion of the number of troops is beneficial to almost all the retainers, one is that the samurai can bring more soldiers, and their status will also be improved, and of course glory and wealth will roll in. Samurai who have already turned into civilian officials can also benefit.

The army is strong, the place is easy to control, and the civilian officials are upgraded by governing the place, of course, they want the place to be quiet!

Not to mention those who have merchants in their families, although the main guild cheats and makes a lot of things. But these things are generally good things that can't be bought, and those materials that are in demand are more in demand, or they have to rely on merchants to help purchase, and more materials also need to be sold with the help of merchants. In this way, the army is greatly expanded, and the businessmen with connections will naturally be able to make a lot of money.

Therefore, no matter how you look at it, this kind of military expansion is an action in which everyone can reap benefits, and of course the more people there are, the better! Moreover, they have no selfish motives! After all, such a large territory requires a whole territory! Of course, more troops are needed! Don't you dare to make tens of millions of soldiers just a mere leader-level martial artist? We are here to truly unify the entire leader, and the number of soldiers is not ten times greater!

It's just that before they could speak, they were frightened by Zhang Zhongjun's words: "Let the cavalry troops conduct intense training, so that the recruits can follow the troops on horseback in the shortest possible time, and once they achieve this goal, they will immediately send troops to attack Fuwang Lingcheng!"

The retainers were stunned for a while, and some of them subconsciously wanted to refute, because the lord was going to attack the Lingcheng again, and this river Lingcheng was defeated, so he was going to attack another Lingcheng?

It's just that this thought wandered around in his mind, and when he was about to say the admonition, he suddenly reacted, his own lord is going to attack Lingcheng! This is going to lead the city! He meowed, hasn't the Jianghe Lingcheng already been defeated? The place where these people are staying is the council hall of Jiangheling! What the hell is this Fuwang Lingcheng? Is there a second Lingcheng in Jianghe Ling?

While the others were thinking in their minds about where this Fuwang Territory was located, after all, everyone had been fighting in the Jianghe Territory for generations, and even most of the people present had been fighting in the territory below the county level in the Jianghe Territory for several generations. Many retainers still can't even understand the geographical exploration of the river territory, so they are even more confused about this place that is called the Fuwang Territory by their own lord.

And Takegami Muraki deserves to be called a knowledgeable and talented person, he has already jumped up like a frightened rabbit, looked at Zhang Zhongjun with a shocked look on his face, and said: "Lord, are you ready to go to war against the Fuwang Territory? This is our Jianghe Ling's neighbor! Our Jianghe Territory has not yet been unified internally, why are we so eager to start a war with the outside world?!"

Takegami Muraki's words finally made these turtle retainers understand what this Fuwang Lingcheng was, and they also jumped up in a panic to dissuade Zhang Zhongjun.

If it weren't for the fact that the entire Jianghe Heichuan family was pulled up by Zhang Zhongjun, and the entire family relied on him to cheat, I'm afraid that those so-called important ministers would have pointed at Zhang Zhongjun's nose and scolded him now.

Well, don't look at the head of the family who has the power of life and death over the retainers, but that can only be done by the first generation, or the kind of very awesome head of the family, generally the samurai that have been passed down for several generations, and the retainer of the Pudai family is an existence that gives the heads of the family a headache.

If the Pudai retainer does not, it means that the family has no cohesion and will collapse at any time. And there are too many retainers in Pudai, and these old retainers often hinder the rule of the head of the family. Therefore, among many veteran samurai families, most of the family's energy is focused on how to reconcile the Pudai retainers, as well as the relationship between the Pudai retainers and the family master. This also understands that so many veteran martial artists for Mao are eating the old books of their ancestors, and they have not moved their positions for hundreds of years and thousands of years. Because their whole family is engaged in infighting.

Zhang Zhongjun, a generation master, of course, is not something that the retainers can control, he just smiled and said an explanation to Takegami Muraki that is not an explanation: "The capture of other places in the Jianghe territory can completely make the garrison responsible, after all, most of the samurai family governors have been destroyed by me, and the samurai and elite soldiers have all been captured by me, and it should be very easy to attack such a territory without soldiers and generals." ”

According to common sense, attacking other territories in the territory now should be the same as an armed march, but Takegami Muraki still asked worriedly: "But what about those demon clans?"
