The Qi army on the outskirts of Yin Jing, after the Southwest King led the army to join, has about 800,000 people, which is comparable to the Yan army who invaded Qi.
However, the Yan army is well-equipped, well-trained, and has half of the cavalry, and its combat power is much stronger than that of the Qi army in bulk.
The Qi army on the periphery of Yin Jing not only has different levels of combat power, but they don't even have a unified command, so it is difficult to form a big climate. This is why everyone has been waiting for the leader of the Southwest King to come.
As soon as the Southwest King came, the more than 600,000 Qi troops in Yinjing City, plus the more than 800,000 Qi troops outside the city, were enough to form a considerable advantage over the Yan Army.
And this "Alliance of Hundred Armies" conference was also the first step for the Qi army outside Yin Jingcheng to form combat power.
The new Chu army of He Yunxiao and others can be regarded as a middle-level force outside Yin Jingcheng based on the number of people alone.
Of the 70,000 people, most of them are newcomers. In the eyes of others, the combat power is insufficient. Compared with the 100,000 or 100,000 princes from various places, it is indeed inferior. But it is much more powerful than a self-organized reinforcement of 10,000 to 20,000, or even hundreds of thousands.
The army's position was neither high nor low, so it got the seat in the third row under the right hand of the Southwest King.
Sitting in the seat was still Fan Ziruo, the military advisor and spiritual leader of the new Chu army.
Behind Fan Ziruo stood He Yunxiao, Chu Fan, Zhang Xiong and other rank nine warriors in sequence. He Yunxiao and others, who used to leave the city with hundreds of people, are now regarded as a considerable force on the Qiyan battlefield.
With a weak treasure in charge, He Yunxiao doesn't have to worry about any conference. He scanned the venue from the corner of his eye, and soon discovered an interesting phenomenon.
Among the generals of the Qi army present, although there were female masters who stood behind their hands, before the crowd, there was only one weak treasure who sat in the position of the lord and was in charge of the meeting.
In other words, Ruobao is the only heroine among the male protagonists.
Mr. Fan is invincible!
He Yunxiao stood silently behind Fan Ziruo, watching the arrival of the prince named "King of the Southwest".
The King of Southwest is the younger brother of the late emperor, and he is nearly forty years old now, but he looks quite young because he practiced martial arts and strengthened his body to prolong his life. With black hair and a strong build, he doesn't look like a middle-aged man in his forties.
After the Southwest King entered the arena, he presided over the Qi army assembly.
The opening routine starts with a wave of praise for the emperor, starting with the ancestors, then the emperor, and finally the eldest princess, and then talking about his half-length military career.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Southwest King is paving the way for himself to be the leader of the 800,000 Qi army. But no one objected. Now that the eldest princess is trapped in the city, it is more appropriate for the 800,000 Qi army outside the city to be handed over to the king of Southwest who is both capable and emperor.
After the Southwest King finished talking about himself, he began to introduce the leaders of the Qi army under his seat.
Several of the leaders sitting in front of the weak treasures were of the "state shepherd" level, and they belonged to the local governor who personally led troops to rescue them. There are also branches of the royal family and princes from all over the world. They don't bring many people, but their status is indeed respected.
Leaving aside these imperial relatives and court pillars, it was "Fan Yu's daughter" Fan Zirui's turn.
Ruobao, a woman, slowly stood up under the introduction of the Southwest King.
The young, beautiful and talented Ruobao suddenly became the focus of everyone's attention. Among a group of men, a delicate beauty suddenly appeared, who could resist it!
"Little girl Fan Ziruo, I have met the prince." Ruobao bowed slightly very politely.
The King of the Southwest waved his hand and said, "Girl, you are welcome. If the news of this king is good, your father is Fan Changshu."
"yes."
"After chasing the Yan people this time, and returning to Yin Jing, this king will ask him to have a drink."
"Zi Ruo thanked the prince on behalf of his father."
The Southwest King laughed, "I went to your house, it was I who bothered you, why do you thank me instead?"
How could the clever weak treasure not understand the meaning behind the words of the King of the Southwest. It is false that the Southwest King asked Fan Yu for a drink, but it is true that Fan Yu is extraordinary. And Fan Ziruo knew that his father had been keeping a low profile because he didn't want to get into trouble.
"Zi Ruo and his father are just ordinary civilians. The prince is willing to condescend to be a guest, so that father and Zi Ruo will be flattered. Fan's mansion, which has not received guests for a long time, will also be full of glory because of the prince's arrival. The prince is so generous, so naturally we need to thank the prince. "
"It is rumored that the girl is Yin Jing's number one talented woman, it is true." Southwest Wang said.
Ruobao owes his thanks.
After this round, the Southwest King did not continue to entangle with Fan Ziruo. He still had a lot of Qi army leaders to talk about, so after asking Ruobao to sit down, he continued the introduction process.
Subsequent introductions went quite smoothly.
The King of Southwest himself is the strength of a grand master, plus his fame and 300,000 troops, all present are not convinced.
The conference progressed all the way, and no one said anything until the Southwest King was elected as the leader.
In the afternoon, the Qi army alliance entered the specific link that the generals really cared about, and divided the troops.
Just like the Yan army that divided the five routes of troops from east, west, south, north, and middle, the 800,000 Qi army also needed to divide its troops.
The slow transmission of information in ancient times, if there is no division of troops, it will cause the overall march of the army to slow down. At least 800,000 Qi troops had to be dispersed to surrounding counties. One day, the headquarters sent a message that the Eastern Army received an order to leave in the morning, but the Western Army had not received the order at night. How can this be coordinated
Therefore, the general headquarters can only do strategic planning, and the specifics of how to fight and how to deploy the formations have to be decided by the generals of each division.
The meeting in the afternoon was not the same as sitting in rows in the morning, but the king of Southwest set up a map in the middle, and the leaders of the surrounding armies circled around to watch.
The map shows the current arrangement of the Yan army and the Qi army.
The King of Southwest pointed to the place where the Qi army was deployed and said: "This king plans to divide our Qi army into the left, right, middle, and rear armies. The central army will be served by my king's soldiers and horses. Responsible for the front and the front. The Yan army resisted."
After the Southwest King finished speaking, no one had any objection.
The 300,000 frontier army of the Southwest King is the largest and strongest army here, and it is perfect for it to serve as the backbone of the entire Qi army outside the city.
He Yunxiao looked at the distribution of the Southwest King, and thought to himself that this prince is not bad. The Chinese army withstood the pressure of the Yan army head-on. Although the credit was the greatest, the casualties may not be small. This "how much strength, how much strength" operation surprised He Yunxiao, who was used to watching "Micromanipulation Master Chang Kaishen" and "Miscellaneous Casualties, Direct Peach Picking" on TV.
After the allocation of the Chinese army was completed, the Southwest King pointed to the right side of the Qi army and said: "Yangzhou Mu, I want to use your 18th army as the skeleton, and add the surrounding Fang, Feng, Liu and other troops to form a 250,000 right army. , what do you think?"
Yangzhou Mudao: "The next official takes orders."
"King Li is deeply involved in the northwest, and has deep connections in Hexi and other counties. How about you leading Zhu, Peng, Zhang, Miao and other troops to form a left army of 200,000?"
Li Wang said: "All according to the emperor's uncle's orders."
The three main forces of the center, left, and right were all allocated, and the Southwest King finally said to Fan Ziruo: "My niece, the Chu family army has just been established, and its combat power is not stable, so you will form ten troops with King Ling, Chen, Shen and others." The Wanhou Route Army is in charge of small-scale operations, how about it?"
Even He Yunxiao understood what the Southwest King said, and made it clear that the new Chu army would not be allowed to fight a big battle.
But Fan Ziruo showed no expression or resistance, he bowed his body, and said directly: "Ziruo takes orders."
