Chapter Summary
However, Feng Buping said: "I know you are afraid that the 100,000 troops cannot defeat Xiao Chen, but we are not just these 100,000 troops." Guo Fenghua and Shen Guzhi didn't quite understand what Feng Buping meant, so they asked, "Apart from these 100,000 troops, can we find other helpers?" Feng Buping smiled mysteriously and said, "What do you two family heads think of the Tianpeng Kingdom and the Xianglong Kingdom?" Guo Fenghua and others were very shocked by the two foreign players Feng Bup...
Shen Guzhi and Guo Fenghua's first reaction to Feng Buping's proposal was that it was a fantasy.
It is true that there are 100,000 troops on the southern border, but do those 100,000 troops really dare to rebel?
Even if they rebelled, could they really defeat the more than 200,000 troops stationed in Luo City?
Not to mention that the 200,000-strong army of Luo City was composed of imperial guards with quite good combat effectiveness. Even if it was just 200,000 civilians, with Xiao Chen's group of powerful generals leading them, they could not be defeated by a mere 100,000 people.
However, Feng Buping said: "I know you are afraid that the 100,000 troops cannot defeat Xiao Chen, but we are not just these 100,000 troops."
Guo Fenghua and Shen Guzhi didn't quite understand what Feng Buping meant, so they asked, "Apart from these 100,000 troops, can we find other helpers?"
Feng Buping smiled mysteriously and said, "What do you two family heads think of the Tianpeng Kingdom and the Xianglong Kingdom?"
Guo Fenghua and others were very shocked by the two foreign players Feng Buping mentioned.
The three great families have a bad relationship with the Xiao family, which is a royal family, but in the final analysis, these are all internal affairs of the Great Zhou Kingdom. Once the Tianpeng Kingdom and the Xianglong Kingdom intervene, things will become complicated.
The existing interests of the Great Zhou Kingdom had already been divided up by several major forces. Introducing foreign forces would only trigger new major changes and even cause new disputes over the distribution of interests.
By then, we can only leave it to fate to see how much of the profits the three major families can take away.
After all, the aristocratic sects of the Tianpeng Kingdom and the Xianglong Kingdom are stronger than the aristocratic sects of the Great Zhou as a whole.
Therefore, Guo Fenghua and Shen Guzhi were opposed to this matter from the bottom of their hearts.
Feng Buping also knew that it was not easy to convince the two old guys about this matter, so he quickly added fuel to the fire.
"Please rest assured, the two family heads, the Tianpeng Kingdom and the Xianglong Kingdom will not interfere in the internal affairs of the Great Zhou. They have already put forward their conditions."
"The Tianpeng Kingdom wants the right to use Longtan Mountain for one year, and the Xianglong Kingdom only wants five spots in the Dynasty Martial Competition. This deal is a good deal!"
Shen Guzhi smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that Master Feng has already planned everything! I'm afraid you are just notifying us today. Whether we agree or not, you have to go ahead with your own way!"
Feng Buping smiled but did not argue.
Guo Fenghua said sarcastically: "I don't know what is in Longtan Mountain, but the Feng family leader took the initiative to offer five places for the Dynasty Martial Arts Competition. Isn't this too much?"
Feng Buping smiled nonchalantly and said, "Master Guo, you are joking. These five quotas are naturally not deducted from our three families. The royal family takes more than five quotas every year."
Since the quota was deducted from the royal family, the two of them had no objection.
The interests of the family and the fear of Xiao Chen made the three major families finally choose to cooperate with the enemy country.
"Master Feng, have you determined the specific time and plan of action with the two kingdoms?"
Feng Buping replied, "The specific time of action is half a month from now. The Tianpeng Kingdom will be responsible for assisting the southern army to move north, and the Xianglong Kingdom will use Broken Blade City as its base to harass the western border and involve part of the Luocheng army there."
Although Xiao Chen sealed off Luo City, all the major families had jade talismans for communicating with the outside world. It was impossible to completely cut off contact with the outside world. Xiao Chen was negligent in this matter.
…
Xiao Chen was completely unaware of the conspiracy of the three great families as he was busy with the reorganization of the army.
The arrival of Meng Tian, Huo Qubing and others made the allocation of troops a big problem.
The two original legions of 100,000 men, the Tenglong Legion and the Huolin Legion, remained unchanged as usual.
As for the Imperial Guards responsible for the defense of Luo City, Xiao Chen made great changes to them.
The original 80,000-strong Imperial Guards were divided into two parts by Xiao Chen. One part was the cavalry corps led by Meng Tian, and its name was the Golden Fire Cavalry.
The other part is the infantry corps. Meng Tian's arrival gave Xiao Chen inspiration, so he directly named this infantry corps the Battle-hardened Armored Soldiers, and Yuwen Chengdu temporarily served as the commander.
Originally, Yuwen Cheng assisted Zhang Liao in establishing the Tenglong Legion. Now, because he was transferred to the Battle-piercing Armored Corps, the deputy general of the Tenglong Legion was appointed by the newcomer Le Yi.
The Tenglong Legion will be Xiao Chen's main force in the future to retake Duanren City. Letting Le Yi, who is good at siege, familiarize himself with the situation in advance will also be of great benefit to future wars.
Xiao Chen originally envisioned that the Golden Fire Cavalry and the Hundred Battle Armored Soldiers would have 50,000 men each, but currently Luo City is short of troops, and has only gathered 40,000 men for now, leaving each army short of 10,000 men.
The lack of soldiers is not the most important thing. The most important thing is the lack of dragon horses necessary to form cavalry.
The dragon horse is the only choice for forming cavalry on the Tianluo Continent. This horse is a first-level monster with a strong physique and great endurance, especially its short-distance charge speed is extremely fast. Therefore, each kingdom will choose this horse when forming cavalry.
Unfortunately, this kind of dragon horse originated from the northern barbarians, and only a small number of them exist in the wastelands within the territory of the Great Zhou Kingdom. In recent years, the remaining dragon horses have been hunted down by warriors from various major sects.
Therefore, the biggest dilemma Xiao Chen is currently facing is the insufficient number of dragon horses.
Moreover, of the four armies formed by Xiao Chen, three are cavalry corps, and the demand for dragon horses is even greater.
The demand for dragon horses is close to 250,000, but the number of dragon horses of the Luocheng Imperial Guards and the four major citadels is less than 150,000, leaving a gap of up to 100,000.
This forced Xiao Chen to turn his attention to Shangguan Qingmeng, because she was a businessman.
Xiao Chen decided to find another opportunity to talk to Shangguan Qingmeng recently. The whereabouts of the Condensing Mist Grass mentioned last time had been found, but he hadn't found the time to check it out.
The imperial palace guards were originally under the charge of Gao Shun, but after the Shadow Guards moved in, he was temporarily no longer needed.
Xiao Chen placed him and the newly arrived Huo Qubing in the Huolin Legion, asking them to help train the army and accumulate military merits.
The Shadow Secret Guards took over all the defense of the imperial palace. One third of the original imperial guards were cleared out, and the remaining two thirds were handed over to Zhang Han and his Shadow Secret Guards.
The Shadow Secret Guards are all experts, and they don't need to be involved in many small matters. Leaving some people with low cultivation in the palace also has their uses.
With Zhang Han, Li Yuanba no longer had to stay in the palace to protect him all the time. This guy was happy and at ease, and went to Xiaohuang Mountain to practice alone.
After Master Xu arrived, he was warmly received by Xiao Chen, who then arranged him in a place in the palace close to Sun Simiao.
One of these two people is a weapon refiner, and the other is a pharmacist. Both of them have strange personalities. After living together, they each have a companion.
Now, the only thing that makes Xiao Chen regretful is that Yan Lu, the super master, has not arrived yet.
