Emperor: When will the Seventh Prince rebel? I will open the city gates to welcome him.

Soon, the ten commanders and deputy commanders of the Second Headquarters Field Army compiled and compiled the rosters of all the officers of the field armies to which they belonged.

The organized troops, division commanders, battalion commanders and company commanders led their field army soldiers to set up camp automatically.

King Zhenbei doesn't need to worry about all of this.

Because the King of Zhenbei has already done the most difficult thing in managing the army and promoted a group of senior officers and generals, the operation of the troops will then be left to the senior officers to continue to run in.

The King of Zhenbei was originally a special forces soldier, and his knowledge and military theories were ahead of their time.

The ten commanders of the Second Headquarters Field Army handed the rosters of their respective field army officers to King Zhenbei one by one.

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan looked at every officer's roster.

Although Hongxuan did not have the ability to remember everything he saw, he looked carefully at every officer's roster.

The ten army commanders and deputy army commanders all looked at King Zhenbei.

They knew that their prince attached great importance to this list of officers.

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan nodded as he looked at it.

At this time, Jin Falin and Lin Hu also came into the hall, holding the list of officers in their hands.

It must be handed over to Zhenbei King Hongxuan.

Hongxuan also took the list of officers handed over by Jin Falin and Lin Hu.

Hongxuan only brought 5,000 men from the northern border, but after just a few days, his military strength had grown to the current 180,000.

It's an incredible thing.

The number of troops he now possesses is greater than that at the northern border.

Voice:

“I don’t know if the First Command Group Army at the northern border has started a war with Beishang’s national master Yun Yi!”

"Haha! But I am sure that the Imperial Master Yun Yi will definitely fall flat on his face."

At this time, the commander of the Fourth Army, Deng Yongmen, came to the main hall of the Zhenbei King’s government.

Tang Tianyou was overjoyed when he saw that the person coming was Deng Yongmen.

Deng Yongmen came into the hall and saw many more young faces in the hall. He learned that King Zhenbei had assembled new troops in Ezhou.

I thought that the King of Zhenbei was indeed the King of Zhenbei, and my own prince was really powerful.

Deng Yongmen knelt on one knee and said respectfully:

"The commander of the Fourth Army, Deng Yongmen, pays a visit to the King of Zhenbei!"

King Zhenbei responded:

"No need to be so polite, Commander Deng! Please stand up quickly!"

Deng Yongmen stood up and responded respectfully:

"Reporting to King Zhenbei, I have brought 50,000 sets of composite military crossbows!"

"Good! Very good."

With 180,000 troops and 50,000 sets of composite military crossbows delivered, Hongxuan is full of confidence in the upcoming battle.

Hong Xuan looked at His Highness Deng Yongmen and said:

"General Deng! You will give these 50,000 composite crossbows to the five field armies of the second headquarters that I have just established. Each field army will be allocated 10,000 composite crossbows."

"Oh, right! Commander Deng, you still need to teach them how to use the compound crossbow!"

Deng Yongmen took the order and took ten young, newly appointed commanders and deputy commanders of the Second Command to receive the composite military crossbows.

The use of the compound crossbow is very simple.

These young military commanders learned it quickly and were extremely amazed at the power of the compound crossbow.

Shooting at the big tree, two-thirds of the crossbow arrows penetrated into the tree.

The soldiers of the five field armies of the Second Command were extremely excited when they received the composite crossbows. They never dreamed that they could possess such a powerful weapon.

Deng Yongmen did not expect that the King of Zhenbei had 180,000 soldiers.

He returned to the main hall of the Zhenbei King's government:

"King Zhenbei! There are still so many soldiers who have not received the composite crossbows. I will go back to Mangdang Mountain and transport the composite crossbows here."

Hong Xuan looked at Deng Yongmen and said:

"Deng Yongmen, you and your army should rest for a few days before taking action! The soldiers have worked hard this time."

"Yes! I obey your order."

To transport the composite military crossbows from Mangdang Mountain in the northern border to Ezhou City, both the soldiers and the carriages needed to rest for a few days.

"Three days later! You will set out with the Fifth Army to transport weapons."

Deng Yongmen asked in confusion:

"Your Highness! Although the Ezhou soldiers have reached 180,000, it is too much to assign an entire army to me to transport the composite crossbows, right?"

Hongxuan shook his head and said:

"Don't take it lightly. Even if you, Deng Yongmen, lead 5,000 soldiers to transport 50,000 sets of composite crossbows, I will still be nervous."

"What's more! This time we are transporting 150,000 sets of composite military crossbows at once. If the enemy knows about this, they will do everything they can to grab them."

"Under such circumstances, how can I be at ease and let only 5,000 of your soldiers escort such a large number of composite crossbows?"

Five thousand soldiers escorting 150,000 sets of composite military crossbows, Hongxuan would never do such a risky thing, nor did he dare to do it.

Of course, we need to send an army group to escort them.

Of course, if there are not enough troops, that is another matter.

Originally, the King of Zhenbei only thought that he could attack the 400,000 rebels in Yunzhou with only 50,000 troops.

For Hongxuan,

Although there were 400,000 rebels in Yunzhou, in Hongxuan's eyes, these rebels were just a group of rabble.

Let Deng Yongmen transport another 150,000 composite crossbows.

However, this Second Command Field Army will have to be equipped with composite crossbows sooner or later.

With these 50,000 composite military crossbows, Hongxuan was actually more than enough to deal with the 400,000 rebels in Yunzhou.

If Hongxuan urgently needs more composite crossbows,

Then he would not have said that Deng Yongmen would rest for a few days before setting off, but that he would set off immediately.

After Deng Yongmen left the hall,

The Qilin Guards and grain officials he sent out gradually delivered all the grain and tax silver from the twelve county towns to the Zhenbei King's government in Ezhou Chengnei.

Hongxuan did not rush to count the grain, but counted the silver first.

The total amount of silver collected this time was 400,000 taels.

This is the tax revenue of Ezhou for one year.

Hongxuan looked at the 400,000 taels of silver and shook his head. Silver was most needed to support the army.

Hongxuan has already promised a monthly salary of one or two taels of silver. Now that the war is about to begin, he must of course fulfill his promise.

Arrange the Qilin Guards and the grain officers yourself,

The 150,000 taels of silver were handed over to the army commander and the deputy army commander respectively, and they were asked to distribute them.

Let every soldier have a salary of one or two taels of silver.

Hongxuan once again took out 50,000 taels of silver and gave 10,000 taels to each field army commander.

Every field officer was extremely excited and grateful to King Zhenbei Hongxuan. They felt that the treatment of being an officer in King Zhenbei's army was beyond their imagination.

Of course officers are treated better than soldiers, otherwise who would want to be an officer.

The extra fifty thousand silver coins made all the officers of the Second Command feel that they were truly

of course.

The Fifth Army of the First Command received the same treatment.

Each of the 5,000 soldiers who transported the military crossbows was given three taels of silver, and an additional 30,000 taels of silver was allocated to Deng Yongmen for free distribution.

At the same time, Hongxuan asked the grain officials to distribute the fertile land to every citizen in Ezhou as quickly as possible, giving priority to the families of young people who came to serve in the King Zhenbei's army.
