The invitation party of Cihang Sword Studio is over.
No one knows what happened except the participants.
The only thing that is certain is that the people who left were all in extremely serious condition. However, after they returned to their respective places, they immediately began to gather their subordinates and began to deploy them.
For a time, the entire Northland entered an atmosphere of unprecedented tension.
Almost all the forces in the North are recruiting troops. The intensity of the recruitment is far beyond imagination, as if a huge war is about to begin, causing panic in the entire North.
Songjia Mountain City.
Song Lu immediately entered the knife grinding hall with the information and found the duel between Tiandao and Li Su.
After quickly narrating the information collected on the first floor, Song Lu said: "Not only the Central Plains, but also the Eastern and Western Turks, and even Tuyuhun are taking action and starting to recruit troops with great efforts..."
Song Que was a little surprised at this moment.
As a strategist and military strategist, he undoubtedly has a clear grasp of the current situation in the North.
The size of the army cannot be determined by just a few people. It also needs a corresponding economic foundation to support it.
With an army of one million, anyone with a larger territory can pull it up, such as Li Tang who accepted Li Mi's surrender, or the Turks.
But in fact, Li Tang's troops were only about 80,000. The Eastern Turks were larger, only between 150 and 200,000, but they were cavalry, equivalent to 400,000 infantry.
This is basically their limit.
It's not that they can't muster more troops, but no matter how many more troops there are, there will be a huge deficit in the country. Before the battle is over, the territory will be over.
It can be said that on the current site, the one with the real ability to explode troops is not the North Land, but the first floor in the South.
First of all, the first floor has high-yielding crops, and the food accumulated over the past few years has reached an extremely terrifying level.
And as Nanling moved closer, the seafood industry was fully developed under Li Su's instructions. By drying sea salt and preserving it in cans, strategic reserves beyond imagination were accumulated.
As a large amount of land has been cleared and high-yielding crops have been planted, it can be seen that by October, the food on the first floor will be five times as high as before.
Therefore, even if the first floor of a 100,000-strong army has been raised, its military expenditures so far only account for about 7% of the national economic system.
In other words, as long as the first floor is willing, it can really quickly raise an army of about 500,000 people. By October, this foundation can be doubled again.
Yes, this is affordable, and the army can still be a regular army for 30 to 50 years, not a production one.
Why did Song Que barely care about the development of the first floor after Li Su announced his intention to dominate the world? After all, uniting the south with the north was the core reason why he and Fan Qinghui were at odds with each other. How could he, who had always been sitting in the south and north, not control the world?
care?
But when the information on the first floor was sent to the Song Family Mountain City, and after a thorough understanding of the situation on the first floor, Song Que let it go.
No need to play at all!
Not to mention the level of military command of his son-in-law, the level of overall strategy and national economic construction are too terrible. Even without the Song clan, the so-called Central Plains War was completely useless in front of the power he established.
Dregs.
It can be said that the only thing lacking in the first floor to unify the Central Plains is not the combat effectiveness of the organization itself, but the high-end combat effectiveness.
And it is obvious that in the battle between Bashu and Bashu, I, the Evil King, the Yin Queen, and a strong man equal to the Three Qi are standing behind the first floor. There is no doubt that the situation on the first floor is truly established. You can crush them with your eyes closed.
Unify the world.
That's right, the intensity of the war on the first floor has reached the point where it can fight the world alone.
And we haven’t mentioned weapons here. With the flintlocks and siege cannons developed by Li Surang on the first floor, these advanced weapons can be said to be completely subversive. The north, no, even if outside countries are added, for the first floor
, it’s only a matter of time.
Fan Qinghui probably later understood the situation on the first floor and realized its war capabilities before he completely calmed down. He did nothing and allowed the situation to develop until not long ago...
Now, the Northland is expanding its military?
They don't have the economic strength of the first floor. This kind of military expansion does not need to be ignored by the first floor. South of the Yangtze River, Cheng Bing will probably collapse next year at best.
Li Su was also shocked. The forces in the North were recruiting troops? His brain was so rusty?
Can the Alliance still understand what military expansion is?
He couldn't help but turned his head and slapped Song Que, with doubt in his eyes, 'Father-in-law, are you sure your first love isn't helping me speed up the unification of the North, or even defeat the foreign races?'
In this case, there is no need to go to the first floor to fight. You can just sit and wait and watch the opponent self-destruct.
Song Que was stunned for a long time. After a long time, he became slightly absent-minded. He rarely paid attention to Li Su, but faced the north, feeling shocked and confused.
Why?
What happened to you? Qinghui!
Why is this so?
"father in law?"
"Brother?"
Looking at the indifferent Tiandao, the two people couldn't help but ask.
Song Que came back to his senses. After taking a look at the two of them, he took a deep breath and said, "Boy, be prepared!"
"Prepare?"
"A total war, a war between the south of the Yangtze River and the north of the Yangtze River, with millions of troops in full conflict! It's not just the army below, but also high-end combat capabilities. In the past few months, try to improve your strength as much as possible.
This game will probably be ten thousand times more dangerous than the battle between Bashu and Bashu."
When Song Lu heard this, he couldn't help but gasped, "Brother, are you saying that Cihang Jianzhai united all the forces in the north to start a war with the first floor? How is it possible? How did she do it?" The major forces in the north
, obviously both have ambitions. If they cooperate for a while and have sufficient interests, it is still possible.
This kind of all-out war, let alone the interior of the Central Plains, foreign forces such as the Turks and Tuyuhun should not and will not fully participate in it.
A million-level army cannot be mobilized from the northern part of the Central Plains alone. It is only possible with the participation of outside regions.
Li Su stared blankly at Tiandao, whose expression showed seriousness, confusion and pain for the first time.
Unlike Song Lu, Li Su's focus is no longer on how Fan Qinghui achieves this.
What's important is how determined is she to do this? Will she start a full-scale war with her?
After all, judging from their current behavior, as long as it takes a while, this so-called alliance will collapse on its own.
Food is the eternal theme of war.
Even if there is no conscription, the food in the North is not enough to launch such a full-scale war, and it is even more impossible if there is conscription.
But Fan Qinghui still did it, and the Northland also took the same action.
So where does the food come from?
Looking at Tian Dao's expression, Li Su almost understood, although he was a little unbelievable.
That nun is trying to destroy the world!
If you really do that kind of thing, Cihang Sword Palace will definitely be infamy for thousands of years?
Li Su frowned slightly, nodded and said: "Okay, I understand. Uncle Lu, please tell me who belongs to the first floor, recruit troops, and speed up the arming of the troops. Within three months, the first floor's regular army must reach five
One hundred thousand, reserve army 800,000."
"ah???"
Song Lu was stunned, the regular army is 500,000? The reserve army is 800,000? Let’s not mention the reserve army. The regular army on the first floor refers to the troops armed to the teeth, not only with food, but also with equipment.
Looking at the economy on the first floor, I am afraid that nearly half of the departments will have to go all out to cooperate and completely give up on local economic development.
Unable to bear it, Song Lu wanted to say something, but when he saw the expressions of Li Su and Song Que, Song Lu took a breath, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go make arrangements right away."
Soon, Song Lu left.
Li Su picked up the letter in his hand and looked at the shocking conscription content inside. After a moment, he slowly said: "Father-in-law, do you really think Fan Qinghui will use the civilians of the North as leverage to start this war?
"
What to do if there is no food? Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period has already taught everyone.
"It's not a feeling, it's a certainty."
Song Que's eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion, "Although I don't know what happened to her, I know her very well. She will do anything to achieve her goal. In fact, this so-called conscription is to release her to me.
A signal to do this! Fight her decisively, one battle will determine victory or defeat, one battle will determine life and death, the winner will get everything, otherwise..."
Li Su sighed, and there was no need for Song Que to continue talking. He nodded and said, "I understand."
After leaving the Sharpening Hall, Li Su stood on the Song Family Mountain City and couldn't help scratching his head.
In The Legend of Double Dragon, Fan Qinghui uses Ning Daoqi to mercilessly fight back Song Que who took advantage of the general trend in order to use the north to unify the south.
Now, with the success of the First Floor, she once again attacked Song Que mercilessly. But this time it was undoubtedly more ruthless, directly using the people of the North as weight to force the First Floor to fight with him.
She knew Song Que very well.
Song Que basically didn't hesitate and directly prepared to fight with him.
Of course, if it were Li Su, he would do it too.
In fact, in this round, Fan Qinghui was not only targeting Song Que, but also Li Su.
It's just that this method, to Li Su, probably means that this old woman is crazy, but it is different for the Heavenly Sword, completely different.
First love is definitely the most unforgettable feeling for everyone. Even after getting married and starting a career, one day when you think about it, you still can't help but feel gloomy.
Fan Qinghui's behavior was tantamount to taking a knife and stabbing it directly into the heart of the Heavenly Sword, cutting it open fiercely.
It’s so heartbreaking!
Feeling the ever-increasing sword intent in Song Que since Song Lu left the knife-sharpening hall, Li Su saw for the first time the best sword in the world, the leader of the Song Clan, the Heavenly Sword Song Que was angry.
"Okay, old aunt, you are cruel enough! I'm just going to play a game with you."
Li Su took a breath and walked down the Song family mountain city, preparing to improve his strength, preferably to the broken level, to deal with all the means that Cihang Sword Studio might prepare.
**********
Li valve.
Li Jiancheng, Li Xiuning, and Li Yuanji were in the main hall. They looked at their father and brother who looked a little crazy after they came back in confusion.
What happened?
Why? At this time, recruiting troops like crazy?
Originally, Li Tang had an army of 100,000, which was already the limit. However, within a day after the two returned, they issued orders to their subordinates and went all out to recruit troops.
The scariest thing is undoubtedly the quantity.
Half a million!
Within three months, an army of 500,000 people was gathered and the first floor of the southern expedition was launched.
Not only them, but all the ministers of Li Tang also had puzzled looks on their faces at this moment, wanting Li Yuan, the leader of Li Tang, to give them an answer.
no answer.
Li Yuan sat on the throne indifferently, ignoring his son and the questions in the minds of his subordinates. Instead, he looked at his son Li Shimin who was also silent and had a crazy look in his eyes.
"Shimin, how is the organization going?"
"Father, we have issued an order, and all the territories belonging to Li Tang are conducting comprehensive recruitment."
"very good!"
Li Clan is like this, and so are others.
Turks.
Jieli Khan returned without any hesitation, and directly issued an order to summon the cavalry from all over the country, make preparations, and march south three months later.
On the side, the rare martial lord Bixuan directly supported Jieli. If anyone disagreed, he would go and visit him personally.
The leaders of the major tribes were startled. Going south was already a habit for the Turks.
But why would Wu Zun support Jie Li so much this time?
*******
At this moment, in the hinterland of the Central Plains, Cihang Sword Studio is located.
The decrepit Dini showed a rare look of apology on his face and said, "I'm sorry, Qinghui. You have to shoulder everything."
Fan Qinghui shook her head, with despair in her eyes, and said sadly: "If what Master said is true, the world itself is worthless, and we are just puppets with strings."
"Marionette..."
Dini slowly closed her eyes, with a look of extreme pain on her face, "Yes, they are all puppets on strings."
She turned her head, looked at Ning Daoqi, who was still sitting on the side, and said: "Friend Ning, I have been lucky to you all this time. You have been kept running around, and you have even done many things that are not in line with your original intention."
Ning Daoqi shook his head and said calmly: "As Senior Di Ni said, this world is fake and everything is empty. Taoism seeks inaction, but it also does everything. To break this illusion, you are no longer the only one, Senior Di Ni.
"My desire is also Ning's goal. My heart is free, how can I be imprisoned in a cage?"
"Master, is it really possible? Is there hope?" Fan Qinghui's desperate and empty eyes flashed with a little light, but recalling the story Di Ni told her, she couldn't help but feel deep despair.
"I don't know. I have tried too many times and tried everything, but I still can't change the ending." Dini shook her head, but then her eyes lit up, "But this time is different, very different. I
Feel."
"Huh?" Fan Qinghui was startled.
"Evil Emperor, Xiang Yutian!"
"ah?"
"In the past, although he existed, he did not exist, but this time is different. He did exist and left traces. Not only that, this time he also accepted a disciple, a disciple who completely inherited his legacy.
Moreover, this disciple has established a pattern of uniting the north with the south, which has never happened before. The long river of destiny has been greatly disrupted, and the world is being shaken up by huge waves."
Dini said slowly: "So, his disciple is our chance, the only chance."
"I can feel that the barrier of this world has cracked. There is no longer the indestructible feeling. Fellow Daoist Ning should also feel that this time the upper limit of the world is far higher than before, and our realm is more solid."
"So the situation between the north and the south, the war between the world, and the all-out collision between the world's masters, with life, blood, and everything we have, maybe we can break open the cage that shackles us, and then escape from here and obtain
True freedom is no longer a prisoner in a cage..."
