Under the guidance, we came to a building. It was originally a post house, but it was specially renovated for the alliance.

The hall was simple and grand. The two parties sat across from each other, and the accompanying officials took out folded books.

Each side has a secretary who will record the entire alliance conversation, and there will also be an official historian and artist present... All of these things reveal the solemnity.

In the eyes of both parties, this is an alliance that will go down in history and will affect the future pattern of the mainland.

"Before we begin, I want to say something."

Zhu Wen looked at Ji Chuan and said solemnly: "Since both of us can sit here, it shows that we are both willing. All the unhappiness, injustice, and dissatisfaction between the Wei and Liang Kingdoms have become a thing of the past, and we must not care about it anymore!"

This is a premise.

If you still care about the previous conflicts and grievances, there will be no discussion at all.

For example, when the Liang State was threatened by Daning before, they would be dissatisfied because the Wei State stood aside and stood aside. The same thing has happened to the Wei State again, and the Liang State cannot be ridiculed because of this...

“Letting past mistakes be the premise of this alliance.”

Himekawa also quite agrees. How can the negotiation be successful if everyone has their own agenda?

This is about the future of both countries.

"I would like to mention one more thing, this alliance only discusses the process, not the results, nor the division of interests!"

Ji Chuan said solemnly: "The purpose of our alliance is only to capture Daning, only for Emperor Yuanwu, and does not involve any interests!"

Zhu Wen looked slightly startled.

He was thinking about how humiliated Ji Chuan had been this time, and why did he feel that his hatred for Emperor Yuanwu was no weaker than his own?

Of course he knew what Himekawa meant.

Just thinking about dividing the profits before victory is achieved. In this case, there will usually be no good results.

There are bloody lessons in this regard.

The first time the Wei and Liang alliance attacked Dakang, both sides had their own agendas due to their divided interests. No one helped the other, and each side attacked one side.

In the end, they were defeated one by one and suffered heavy losses.

The person who turned the tide of the war around was Guan Ning. At that time, he had not yet succeeded to the throne of Zhenbei King...

Thoughts flashed through.

Zhu Wen said: "I completely agree with what Wei Jun mentioned."

"good!"

Once the two major premises are determined and both understand each other's determination, we can get to the point.

Zhu Wen's eyes signaled Zhu Zhen.

Zhu Zhen talked about the situation.

"We, the Liang State, will integrate the national military strength and recruit new soldiers to form five legions, with the names of Zhen, An, Ding, Wei and Hu. Each legion has 300,000 men, totaling 1.5 million troops!

"

"And they are all main battle corps, not stragglers. There are currently three corps in place..."

Hear this.

Himekawa and the people around him looked at each other with surprise and suspicion.

The five main legions have a strength of 1.5 million, which is already a quite large number.

After the war begins, there is still logistics to support the transportation of military supplies, and at least nearly one million civilians need to be recruited to provide supplies.

This investment is quite large.

Liang Guo really mobilized the power of the whole country!

Usually when fighting, millions of troops are often mentioned. In fact, the millions of troops here have a lot of merit.

Perhaps more than half of the civilian and non-combatant personnel are logistics personnel, but now there are truly 1.5 million troops...

Himekawa looked solemn.

He felt the pressure.

Providing such a large army is not easy.

The alliance distribution is that Liang will provide troops and Wei will provide logistics, each getting what it needs and using its strengths.

Himekawa finally understood why he saw so many refugees when he arrived.

All the young and strong laborers were recruited into the army, and the rest also smelted copper and iron to prepare the army.

Do all these troops go to the battlefield with wooden sticks?

Armor equipment is required, which is also a big gap.

The Ministers of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War of the State of Wei who came with them discussed in low voices, and also moved the abacus to calculate the military supplies.

"Because our Liang State is recruiting troops aggressively, people's livelihood will inevitably be sacrificed. Therefore, the supply needs to be borne by the State of Wei."

Zhu Wen said bluntly.

One party provides people and the other party provides money.

That's fair.

The common goal is to eliminate Daning.

At this time, Fan Huazang, the commander-in-chief of Wei's border army, asked: "How many cavalry are there?"

"The total number is about 600,000!"

This was answered by Zhu Wen himself.

"Tianxiong's army is 200,000, Iron Buddha is 100,000, and Qingqi is 300,000."

Tianxiong Army is Zhu Zhen's direct army. It is an armored cavalry between heavy armor and light armor.

It has the protective capabilities of heavy cavalry and the mobility of light cavalry.

He once stationed at the border of Wei and Liang, and the Wei State suffered great losses at his hands.

It is one of the most powerful arms in mainland China.

What surprised them the most was the Iron Buddha!

This is also a powerful army, a pure heavy cavalry, and has a high reputation in the mainland. It is the flagship army of the King of Liang.

However, during the civil strife in Dakang, the Liang State sent troops to Kang. At that time, they were all wiped out by Emperor Yuanwu, and the Tiefu Tu was also completely annihilated.

It appeared again when Liang Guo was fighting Daning.

Ironically, it was Daning who used the iron pagoda at that time...

And now Liang Guo once again has the Iron Buddha Tu, and there are still 100,000 of them, which is really unbelievable!

See the surprise and suspicion of Himekawa and others.

Zhu Wen smiled lightly and said: "Our country, Liang, has the reputation of being the most powerful military country in the mainland. You are not living up to this reputation in vain!"

"We, the Liang Kingdom, have never stopped cultivating war horses!"

Himekawa nodded.

The Liang State is located in the southwest of the mainland and is also rich in horses. The more famous ones are the Xisui Horse, Changyin Horse and other horse breeds, which are also collectively called Southwest Horses.

It's just that the Southwest horse is small in size and good at walking on mountain roads, so it is not suitable for use as a war horse. It has well-developed tendons and solid hooves, and is good at climbing mountains and ridges, so it is suitable for transportation and consignment.

However, Liang Guo has been building large-scale racecourses to improve and train people!

Himekawa understood, this was the bottom line.

How could a once powerful military power not have some hidden weaknesses?

"We, the Liang Kingdom, have some background. Not everything that was destroyed in Daning was defeated in the war with Daning. Even an iron pagoda could not save us."

Zhu Wen's voice was low.

For Liang Guo, this is an unspeakable history.

"After that, our country, Liang, invested more in cultivating war horses and introduced black horses from the Dawu Lei Kingdom in the Western Regions, finally cultivating better war horses!"

Zhu Wen said: "We, the Liang Kingdom, still have a lot of heritage, and we will not be ruined just because of a defeat!"

He showed great confidence when he said this!

The mainland’s number one military power is by no means in vain!

Liang Wu’s Zhongxing was not a failure!

This is what I took out from the bottom of the box.

One hundred thousand iron pagoda.

Three hundred thousand Qingqi!

At least the gap with Daning in terms of cavalry has been narrowed!

After saying this, Zhu Wen looked at Ji Chuan.

"I wonder if Mr. Wei is satisfied with this?"

"satisfy!"

Ji Chuan smiled and said: "Compared to Daning, a new dynasty that was only established eight years ago, although our Wei and Liang kingdoms have declined, their heritage is also difficult to match."

"As for the great prosperity of the previous dynasty, let's not mention it!"

Himekawa was very satisfied.
Chapter completed!
