At noon the next day, Nangong Aotian finally received the good news.
The people who went to negotiate with the two small principalities mentioned by Nangong Aotian finally came back. He was not disappointed. The two small principalities agreed to the request of the Chinese Empire Army to use the passage. After all, these two small principalities have always been in peacetime.
They have been taken care of by the Chinese Empire and have a good relationship with the Phoenix family. They can still agree to such a request.
After lunch, Nangong Aotian summoned all the generals together.
"Aotian, I still don't understand. Is this matter so important to you?" Dongfang Xiaotian asked with some confusion.
"Yeah. I can't guess. During this time, you should actually attack Shenglong City? Why do you need to borrow the road?" Liu Dingguo also asked doubtfully, "Even if you use the road, you have to capture Shenglong City first."
Besides, do you want to go around directly?"
"Haha, I just want to go around directly." Nangong Aotian said with a smile, "But if you go around directly, don't you have to fight later? If you don't capture this place, it will greatly restrict our military strength."
"Haha. You will know after you hear what I say." Nangong Aotian said with a smile.
"Since you are so sure, then tell me quickly." Dongfang Xiaotian immediately urged.
At this time, Dongfang Phoenix also looked at Nangong Aotian nervously. She was still thinking about Nangong Aotian's bet.
"I plan to bypass Holy Dragon City directly and then use the two principalities I mentioned before to attack one of the principalities that is hostile to us from behind. At this time, the three small principalities that have sent troops have little resistance in the country.
"Nangong Aotian said with a smile, "We can march quickly to capture the capital of that small principality within half a month. Then we will start to implement our policy and attack the second and third small principalities at the same time. Within two months
We will definitely be able to completely control these three small principalities."
"But, didn't you say you would take down all nine small principalities in six months? You have only taken down three principalities in the past two months? And the Holy Dragon City has not been attacked yet." Dongfang Phoenix himself didn't know.
Why did he say this at this time? She seemed a little disappointed, a little disappointed and a little aggrieved. He thought that Nangong Aotian was taking pleasure in her.
"The two months I'm talking about are not just about winning these three small principalities." Nangong Aotian said with a smile, "We have to take two steps."
"How do you say that?" Dongfang Xiaotian asked doubtfully.
"The first step is that within the first month, we must capture the small principality with the most prisoners. After that small principality surrenders, we can use these captured soldiers. Tell them that they are now part of the Chinese Empire.
An ordinary soldier, a qualified soldier of the Chinese Empire. As long as they are willing, we will let them join the Holy Dragon Legion and go out with us. I don’t think any of them will be willing to be a prisoner for a lifetime. To be a coolie for a lifetime. Not to mention this little time.
Those rhetoric towards them is not in vain." Nangong Aotian said with a smile. Then our military strength expanded a lot. The second step is to divide our troops to attack the other two small principalities. I think it will take less than two months.
Completely destroy these three small principalities."
"What's next?" Dongfang Xiaotian asked.
"The next step will be very simple." Nangong Aotian said with a smile, "Push this policy vigorously in the three small principalities. Then completely stabilize these three small principalities in two months. At this time, these captive soldiers will
The impact is the greatest.”
"It's been four months." Dongfeng Phoenix said angrily.
No one knows why Dongfang Phoenix said this. It seems that Dongfeng Phoenix must let Nangong Aotian take over nine small principalities within six months. This seems to be extremely difficult to achieve. Of course they don't
Know the bet between Nangong Aotian and Dongfang Phoenix
She seemed to feel that what she said was a bit unbelievable. Dongfang Phoenix blushed, lowered her head but said nothing. However, she felt more and more aggrieved. She was originally very smart, but she didn't want to think about anything at this time. Brain
She was in chaos and just felt wronged. As for why she felt this way, she didn't want to think about it.
"It took me two months to fully implement our policy in the three principalities, with many preferential conditions attached. At this time, we will also bring these preferential conditions here. Not only must we tell the prisoners here,
We must also tell the soldiers of Holy Dragon City. Let them know that if they open the city now, they will become a glorious soldier of the Chinese Empire and will be incorporated into the Holy Dragon Legion to establish meritorious deeds. At the same time, they will continue to stay in their own army in the future.
Protect our family and country on the land." Nangong Aotian said with a smile, "If my plan is implemented ideally, our original 230,000 people will double in four months, and these captive soldiers will also work hard.
They must strive for credit, because some of them are likely to be promoted to captains, generals, staff generals or generals in this short period of time."
"You are actually thinking that, you...how could you think that?" Dongfang Xiaotian was greatly shocked. "If your plan succeeds, we don't need to fight against Holy Dragon City at all. And there are ten people in it."
Ten thousand people will also be recruited by us, plus the 200,000 prisoners, there will be a total of 300,000 more troops. You,,,, you..." Dongfang Xiaotian pointed with his big eyes and trembling fingers.
Nangong Aotian.
"How did you come up with all this?" Liu Dingguo also said tremblingly, "If your plan succeeds, we will have an army of 500,000 in four months. In half a year, we will probably have an additional 700,000 to 800,000 troops."
.The Holy Dragon Legion was formed by you like this!!!"
"So everyone will be very busy in these few months." Nangong Aotian said with a smile, "In four months we will divide our forces to attack the remaining six principalities."
"In this case, you should start assigning tasks." Dongfang Xiaotian thought for a while and said, "Although I think your plan still has many difficulties, it is definitely worth a try, because the harvest is so huge."
"Okay. Next, I will start assigning tasks." Nangong Aotian no longer refused.
The assignment of tasks is very simple. Dongfang Xiaotian will go out with the team this time, but Feng Yihan and Xiang Tianming stay behind. After all, Dongfang Phoenix is a girl and is too young. Of course, she will not fight with Nangong Ao again.
Tian Yi went on a long-distance attack. At the same time, 130,000 defenders were left here. Of course, one side was to defend Holy Dragon City, and the other side was to educate the prisoners. At this time, the empire's two thousand eloquent talents and some experienced managers were also preparing to
Come this way, their main responsibility now is to capture soldiers.
The rest of the people marched with Nangong Aotian.
Holy Dragon City is actually less than a hundred kilometers away from the border of Nangong Aotian's first target principality. When Nangong Aotian began to attack that country, people here also began to brainwash the captured soldiers of that country.
Education. At the same time, they began to participate in military training, and many very tempting policies were introduced to encourage them to join the Holy Dragon Legion. They also began to write letters home, and some of them have begun to go to the front line.
They did not encounter any major difficulties in capturing the first principality. There were less than 50,000 soldiers left in that principality. It took Nangong Aotian and the others twenty days to capture the principality. Followed by two thousand eloquent soldiers
Excellent talents and politicians poured into this small principality, and captured soldiers were also brought back to that small principality.
More than ten days later, half of the captive soldiers who originally belonged to this principality joined Nangong Aotian's newly formed Holy Dragon Legion. At the same time, Nangong Aotian ordered someone to write the news in a letter and shoot it into the Holy Dragon Legion with a bow and arrow.
Inside Dragon City.
In the second month, Nangong Aotian's troops were divided into two groups. He led 50,000 principality troops and 30,000 Chinese Empire troops to attack one principality, while the rest of the Chinese Empire troops attacked another principality according to Nangong Aotian's method. The army
No harm was done to the local people wherever they went. At the same time, various generous policies were brought with them along with their campaigns. The farmers who benefited the most were the farmers, and some stubborn nobles, Nangong Aotian had no mercy and wiped them all out.
.
After the three principalities were occupied, Nangong Aotian spent a month to stabilize the situation, and then sent a message to the soldiers of Holy Dragon City. At the same time, he found many of their family members to lobby them, and those former soldiers who had become Holy Dragon Legion soldiers
The soldiers of the principality also came out. Soon there were deserters among the soldiers in the Holy Dragon City. In just half a month, the Holy Dragon City was destroyed without attack. Half of the people joined the Holy Dragon Legion. At this time, in addition to the captured
The soldiers of the principalities who surrendered after three principalities. The number of the Holy Dragon Legion has reached 200,000.
In the blink of an eye, four months have passed. Among the three captured principalities, due to the various generous policies of the Chinese Empire to enrich the people, the lives of the people of the principalities are getting better and better. The Chinese Empire continues to provide them with various subsidies and benefits.
Preferential policies, but still completely wiped out the nobles here.
Then, Nangong Aotian officially established the Holy Dragon Legion. What followed was a large number of recruitments. Some very tempting methods were used to attract the captive soldiers who had originally withdrawn.
As a result, the soldiers who had left the army came back again. At this time, Nangong Aotian began to reorganize the army. The Holy Dragon Legion was divided into two parts. One part was called the Holy Dragon Purple and Gold Legion, and the other part was called the Holy Dragon Gold Legion.
The soldiers of the Holy Dragon Purple and Gold Legion can only enter after going through hundreds of battles and undergoing strict screening. The number is only limited to 100,000. Of course, the treatment of these soldiers is much better. The Shenlong Golden Legion is an ordinary army. It serves as the Holy Dragon Standing Army.
When the soldiers' strength and military exploits reach a certain level, they can join the Holy Dragon Purple and Gold Legion. The important thing is that the generals below the intermediate level of the Holy Dragon and Purple Gold Legion are all obtained through internal competition.
This method is very effective in improving the combat enthusiasm and training enthusiasm of these principality soldiers, and at the same time, it is the goal to enter the Holy Dragon and Purple Gold Legion. After the soldiers of the Purple and Gold Legion have this sense of superiority, they have a sense of superiority.
It has strong cohesion and combat effectiveness.
In the following month of battles, the role of the Holy Dragon and Purple Gold Legion was fully revealed. Its combat capability was no less than that of the elite troops of the Phoenix Legion of the Chinese Empire.
At this time, the leaders of the Purple and Gold Army were none other than Baili Changfeng and Xiao Jianqiu. During this period of fighting, the leadership and strategies they displayed in the battle were no less than those of senior generals like Xiang Tianming. The only
What is lacking is just experience.
Due to Nangong Aotian's very clever strategy and very strict training, coupled with the very attractive encouragement policy, in the battle of blood and fire, in just this month, the Holy Dragon and Purple Gold Army developed a strong cohesion
and a sense of superiority. The combat effectiveness has increased by leaps and bounds. At this time, the number of the Holy Dragon Purple and Gold Legion is still controlled at 100,000. However, the combat effectiveness of the 100,000 Holy Dragon Purple and Gold Legion has exceeded the elite of the Phoenix Legion. And the Holy Dragon and Gold Legion
The number of people has also reached 400,000. The total number of people is almost equal to that of the Phoenix Legion.
At this time, the Shenlong and Purple Gold Legion, both soldiers and generals, regarded Nangong Aotian as their true supreme commander. They all admired and even worshiped this young commander. Under Nangong Aotian's unique training, Shenglong
The soldiers of the legion have gradually matured through the tempering of this blood and fire war. Many young officers with great potential have emerged. None of these officers are born into nobles, and most of them are common people or ordinary aristocratic families.
Children.
With the Holy Dragon Legion, Nangong Aotian spent a month. With the cooperation of the Phoenix Legion, not only the nine principalities were completely wiped out by Nangong Aotian, but also the other small principalities in the south, except those who originally supported the Chinese Empire.
Several accidents were taken down by Nangong Aotian. In this way, the territory of the Chinese Empire expanded by one-sixth. At this time, the number of the Golden Legion of the Holy Dragon Legion had grown to 800,000.
The number of the Holy Dragon Purple and Gold Legion is still 100,000, but at this time, the 100,000 are already the elite among the elite.
Six months later, Nangong Aotian returned to Holy Dragon City with a total of 900,000 troops.
It really only took six months to capture all the small principalities in the south that had not surrendered to the Chinese Empire.
