For the vast majority of strong people, becoming a god is the ultimate goal, but since Chen Muzhi has cast a detached posture, he naturally has infinite courage in his heart, and he wants to embark on a stronger road.

It is difficult for a Qiao woman to cook without rice, and he Chen Muzhi wants to embark on a stronger road, so he naturally does not want to be limited by resources, so he wants to cultivate a transcendent force to conquer the heavens for himself, guard the star field, and constantly provide cultivation resources.

To get back to the point, the mobilization of 20 million troops from the eastern royal court of the Xiongnu was huge, and it took a full month.

This can't be concealed at all, and in fact, King Zuoxian of the Xiongnu didn't think to hide it at all. They felt that after the experience of Cangzhou and the war, the power had dropped by seven or eight percent, and now that the 20 million army was marching south, the local forces in Cangzhou would definitely be defeated.

This also gave Chen Muzhi enough time to dispatch troops and horses, and Chen Muzhi and Jiang Xudao had a total army of nearly five million troops gradually moving north, stationed in several key cities, to resist the enemy.

Not only that, Chen Muzhi also sent a copy to the old emperor of Daqi, asking the Daqi court to send troops to support.

But for the Emperor of Great Qi, Chen Muzhi was a big trouble in his heart, and he wished that Chen Muzhi would be destroyed by the Eastern Royal Court, so that the Eastern Royal Court could continue to fight against Mao Dun.

So the Emperor of Daqi simply issued a holy decree, saying that if there is a natural disaster today, there are constant thieves in various places, and there are no soldiers and horses to wave the army to the north, so let him recruit soldiers and horses by himself to fight against the thieves.

"Heh, I really don't even want dough."

Chen Muzhi looked at the holy decree in his hand and couldn't help but sneer.

Today, the princes everywhere are secretly recruiting their own soldiers and horses. Basically, the number of soldiers and horses in most of the state capitals of the nineteen states of Daqi will far exceed the imagination of ordinary people.

Generally speaking, a state, including the private soldiers of the Canadian nationality, county soldiers, county soldiers, state soldiers, and other miscellaneous soldiers, adds up to more than 10 million.

This is not counting the six battalions, the twelve legions, and other soldiers and horses directly controlled by the imperial court.

Even a frontier state like Cangzhou has a population of seven or eight billion, and even if it suffers heavy losses in the war, it can pull out five million soldiers and horses.

This is still because Chen Muzhi and Jiang Xudao did not indiscriminately fill the numbers, and they recruited a third-order army with not weak combat power, otherwise the number would increase a lot.

However, the army below the third order is good to deal with mortals, once facing the army of martial artists, I am afraid that they will be slaughtered, and it is not suitable to fight in the Qingcang Realm at all.

Therefore, it is really a joke to say that Daqi has at least two or three hundred million third-order soldiers and horses hidden, and it is really a joke to say that not a single horse can be drawn out at the moment.

"Well, I don't count on them per se."

Chen Muzhi sighed and put down the holy decree.

Lin Wuyang, who was on the side, also nodded, and motioned to his entourage to put away the holy decree.

At this time, a personal guard walked to the door: "My lord, the generals are all together, and they are all waiting for you in the council hall." ”

"Hmm."

Chen Muzhi got up and walked towards the conference hall.

Dozens of high-ranking generals in the conference hall have been waiting for a long time, Chen Muzhi glanced at it, most of these generals are iron-blooded generals who have followed him to fight in the south and the north, and they have basically experienced a lot of military exploits.

However, these people are much worse than Zong Shou and Lin Hu, and they need more experience to command the army alone.

It's a pity that Zong Shou and Chen Yu are in retreat, these two people are growing up very quickly, Zong Shou is cautious in using troops, whether it is to attack or defend the city, they are good candidates, and they have the style of generals.

Chen Yu has been following Chen Muzhi to learn the art of war for a long time, and he fought bravely, and he had a good basis for advancing and retreating on Qingzhou Mountain, and he fought beautifully.

Without these two tiger generals, Chen Muzhi actually felt that there was a little insufficient manpower.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Lin Wuyang, his wife was quite handsome, and she had the courage to swallow the world on the battlefield.

Moreover, after the war, it has also grown a lot, and in the Northern Wild Goose Rebellion, he used surprising troops, commanded Zongshou to rush thousands of miles to attack Ansai City, resulting in a complete defeat of the Northern Wild Goose Army.

"It seems that this time, it will depend on Madame."

"After all, the soft rice is fragrant."

"I've seen the lord."

Just when Chen Muzhi's thoughts flickered, the generals under his command marched and saluted together.

He nodded, sat down on the main seat, looked around everyone, and finally looked at Xu Yu.

"Xu Yu, are the major legions of our army in place now?"

"Back to the lord, now our army is two million strong, and the six extraordinary legions have been stationed in Xiangcheng and Cangmu, and half of the troops in each city are there."

"In addition, just in case, there are five transcendent legions stationed in Zhenyuan Mountain."

Xu Yu reported: "As for Yancheng, it is guarded by Lord Jiang, and it has been stationed. ”

Listening to his words, Chen Muzhi looked at the map, revealing a contemplative expression.

The Xiongnu wanted to enter Cangzhou, and there were three big cities blocking the way, namely Xiangcheng, Cangmu, and Yancheng.

Among these three cities, Xiangcheng and Cangmu City are in Cangbei County, which is the main city of the Lin family and the Wang family among the three major families in the past. As for Yancheng, it is in Beiyan County.

These three cities are all fortified cities that are not weaker than Qingzhou City, and the opponent has 20 million troops, and the troops are far superior to their own. For Chen Muzhi, occupying three fortified cities and defending them is the best way.

After staring at the city for a long time, he asked again.

"This time the Xiongnu go south, are you sure which city will be attacked?"

"The Xiongnu Zuoxian King's soldiers will go south in three ways, and they will attack three cities at the same time."

"Oh."

Chen Muzhi frowned, the opposing army went south in three ways and dispersed the complete forces, which was too arrogant.

If Chen Muzhi's troops were in danger, he only arranged a small number of elite soldiers to defend the other two cities, and sent the vast majority of his men out of the city, perhaps trying to eat one of their men.

"Who is the leader on the other side, how can he be so careless?"

"Isn't it going to make them want to lure us out of town?"

Chen Muzhi said that he always felt that something was wrong.

At this time, a general stood up with a happy face.

"My lord, don't worry about it."

"As far as I know, the general who leads the troops on the opposite side is the Hun general Lian Xing, and this person has always been a straw bag with soldiers."

The Xiongnu general Lian Xing Chen Muzhi probably knew that this person was the supernatural venerable of the eastern Xiongnu royal court, and this person led the troops to fight with the Xiongnu imperial court three years ago, and suffered a great defeat because of the careless use of troops, and even led to a rebellion in the waiting department.

It is said that if it weren't for the fact that he was a supernatural Venerable and had a respected status, he might have been beheaded by King Zuo Xian and punished.

It was also because of his defeat that the Burning Flame turned the tide and became famous in this battle.

This made Chen Muzhi even more uneasy, such a straw bale, who had failed many times with his troops, actually became the commander of the Xiongnu's southern expedition, which is unreasonable.

"How could it be Lian Xing's turn to be the commander?"

"Could it be that the Huns are really unavailable?"

Chen Muzhi asked, his eyes staring at the sand table, unwilling to miss a single detail.

The general laughed, then arched his hand.

"Lord, you really don't know, now there is really no one available in the eastern royal court of the Xiongnu."

"Now the most powerful military genius of the Huns, the Prince of Burning Flames, has long been beheaded by you."

"The generalissimo under the command of King Zuo Xian was removed from his official position because of the fiasco in the Changchuan Corridor."

"Now King Zuo Xian wants to personally stay in the royal court, in case Mao Dun goes south, and they can only use Lian Xing if they have no generals available."
