Chapter 882: Ekaterina Visits
In the Central Plains Army, Chu Tian appointed Wu Qi, the holy commander, as the leader of the army.
As the sub-sage of a military strategist, Wu Qi is fully qualified to be the leader of a party.
The Central Plains Army consisted of three legions, led by Wu Qi, Wei Wuji, and Cao Ren. Among them, Wu Qi's legion had Pang Juan as its deputy general, each with 100,000 soldiers and 300,000 troops.
The source of troops for the Central Plains Army mainly came from Yuzhou, Yanzhou, and Sanhe areas.
The Youzhou Army, with Wei Qing as the leader, temporarily set up two legions. The regiment leaders are Wei Qing and Zhou Yafu. There are many excellent cavalry generals in Mingguan who can become the commander of the Youzhou Army.
The source of soldiers for the Youzhou Army mainly came from Zhuo County, Yuyang County, Shanggu County and other places in Youzhou.
In the Hebei Army, Cao Cao is the leader, and there are five legions under it. The legions are led by the five good generals Zhang Liao, Zhang Ying, Xu Huang, Yu Jin, and Le Jin, each with 40,000 soldiers and 200,000 troops.
The source of troops for the Hebei Army mainly came from Jizhou, Taiyuan County, and Shangdang County.
In the Huainan Army, Yue Fei was the leader of the army, and there were three armies under it, Yue Fei, Lu Su, and Chen Deng, with a strength of 150,000.
The source of troops for the Huainan Army came from Jiujiang County and Guangling County.
The Monan Army, led by Li Mu, has three legions under Li Mu, Zhao She, and Wanyan Zonghan, with a strength of 150,000. The source of troops comes from the Xiongnu, Jurchen, and Xianbei.
The Mobei Army, led by Crown Prince Yan, has two regiments, Di Qing and Fan Zhongyan, with a strength of 100,000, and the source of troops comes from Mongolia and the Huns.
In the Guanzhong area, the Xiliang Army has 200,000 troops and the Guanzhong Army has 400,000 troops, for a total of 600,000 troops.
South of the Yellow River, there are 300,000 Central Plains Army and 150,000 Huainan Army, a total of 450,000.
To the north of the Yellow River, there are 200,000 Hebei Army, 200,000 Youzhou Army, 150,000 Monan Army, and 100,000 Mobei Army, a total of 650,000.
At present, all local legions have a total strength of 1.7 million troops, excluding the Liaodong Army and Qidi Army.
The Fubo Legion currently has a size of 120,000. If you want to capture Jiangdong, you must expand the Fubo Legion from 120,000 to 200,000, or even 300,000.
The last is the Qidi Army, that is, the Imperial Guard Army. The main sources of troops come from Xuzhou, Qingzhou, and Lu Kingdom, and they can also be recruited from various places.
The strength of the local legion is currently too strong,
So Chutian tried to expand the size of the imperial guards.
The first regiment of the imperial guards was the Iron Cavalry Army, including the Tiger Guard Army, Xuanjia Army, Qixue Army, Zhongxiao Army, Heli Hejun Army, Huben Army, Knight Army, and Northern Wei Tiger Cavalry. Chu Tian personally served as the commander of the army.
Dianwei's Tiger Guards had 800 men, Yang Dayan's Northern Wei Tiger Cavalry had 800 men, Yu Chigong and Cheng Zhijie's Xuanjia Army had 800 men, Wanyan Chen Monk's Zhongxiao Army had 1,000 people, Heli Heli's Army had 7,000 people, Tai Shici's There are 2,500 people in the Qixue army and 3,000 people in the Huben army. King Arthur's knight army is composed of knights of the round table and captured Western knights.
The First Legion's strength is small, but it is the most powerful heavy cavalry regiment in the entire Eastern Han Dynasty. Even facing the Xiliang Iron Cavalry of the Xiliang Army, it can crush it.
The second army was the Suwei Army, with 45,000 Northern Army Fifth School and 15,000 Sanhe Cavalry as the main force, with a total of 60,000 soldiers. Mi Fang was the commander of the army, but Chu Tian was actually still in command.
The third army is the Women's Army, including Hua Mulan's Iron Eagle Scout, Liang Hongyu's Jianyan Crossbowman, Fan Lihua's Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and Mu Guiying's Song Chongbu. There are about 30,000 high-level troops.
The fourth army is the Shenji Army, Xia Liang's Shenji Battalion, Li Xiuning's Women's Army, 15,000 high-level troops, and the red cannons are also included in the Shenji Army.
The Shenji Army is equivalent to Chutian's Firearms Army.
Ekaterina's tsarist guards and shooting army made Chu Tian envious for a while, so he also paid attention to recruiting firearms.
The Fifth Army is the White Robe Army. Chen Qingzhi, Xue Rengui, and Zhao Yun will be reorganized into the Imperial Guard Army. There are about 20,000 high-ranking troops.
The Sixth Army was the Yanjia Army. Le Yi, Ju Yi, Zang Ba, and Sun Guan were transferred to the Imperial Guard Army by Chutian to strengthen the Imperial Guard Army and control the local army.
The Seventh Legion is the National Defense Army, and Joan of Arc is the commander of the legion, in order to take in some captured alien arms for their own use.
The Eighth Army was the Khitan Army, and Xiao Chuo was the commander of the army. The Khitan troops were the main force, and some Mongolian cavalry were transferred.
Each legion also recruited a batch of low-level arms, bringing the total strength of the eight major legions of the Imperial Guard to 500,000, which surpassed any local army.
Excluding the Liaodong Army, the Western Regions Army, and the city defense forces in various places, it is only the local army plus the Fubo Army and the Imperial Guard Army. The total strength is expected to reach 2.5 million.
Of course, this is an ideal situation. In fact, each army may not be fully staffed.
Dissatisfaction is the norm.
After Chutian determined the formation of each legion, he then handed over to the officials in various places to recruit soldiers and stabilize order.
Chutian gradually shifted its focus from the north of the Yellow River to Guanzhong and Huainan.
In addition to setting up the army, Chutian also set up a strategy department. Sun Bin, Zhang Bin, Jia Xu, Xun You, Guo Jia, Cao GUI and other advisers all served in the strategy department.
Shortly after Guanzhong and Xiliang were pacified, the cold winter came and it snowed heavily in Guanzhong.
The Han Empire, which had been in constant war, suddenly calmed down.
After a series of battles, the Xia army annexed the Qin army and reorganized the army. It is still digesting the newly occupied territory and replenishing troops.
The Battle of Liaoxi indeed exhausted many of Chutian's high-level troops.
In the Battle of Mangshan, the Battle of Hedong, the Battle of Luoyang, the Battle of Tongguan, and the Battle of Yinzhou City, when the soldiers and horses of the West Road encroached on the outskirts of Guanzhong, they suffered losses to some extent.
Because Mu Ke withdrew to the Protectorate of the Western Regions, and the Nanman tribe nominally succumbed to Yizhou Mu Liubei in Yizhou, the fighting finally stopped.
The Nanman tribe launched an attack because of Liu Bei. Millions of people were affected in this battle, and at least 200,000 people died in the war.
In Hanzhong, the Di tribe captured Nanzheng County, and after Yang Su's army entered Hanzhong, they fought with the Di rebels and demanded the Di rebels to surrender.
The Jiangdong army accelerated the annexation of Jingzhou, negotiated with Jingzhou's Song King Yang Shilang, and allowed Yang Shilang to serve as the prefect of Nanjun. The war in Jingzhou tended to end.
Many princes got their wish.
Because Ma Chao can inherit part of Wang Yanzhang's abilities, Chu Tian arranged for his eldest son Chu Wu to be a teacher.
Wu Qi taught the art of war, Jia Xu taught strategy, and Xun Yu taught internal affairs.
Zhuge Liang is not old enough to reach his peak.
During the cold winter, Ekaterina took her little daughter Anna to Chang'an City directly.
Chu Tian rarely saw this youngest daughter.
The status of this little daughter is not low at all, the only imperial daughter of the Tsarist Russian Empire, and the daughter of King Xia of the Han Empire.
The war has come to an end for the time being, and each legion is recruiting new soldiers, so it is rare for Chu Tian to spend time with his sons and daughters.
"The cavalry of our Tsarist Russian Empire, as well as the shooting army, had friction with the coalition forces of the Holy Roman Emperor in the territory of the Kingdom of Poland."
Ekaterina held a ceramic cup of black tea and blew on it lightly, as if she was talking about an insignificant matter.
"I'm afraid it's not as simple as friction..."
Chu Tian knew this woman's character, and would never refuse to cause trouble.
"It also killed thousands of soldiers and horses from the German princes."
"..."
Sure enough, in the eyes of Ekaterina, if thousands of people don't die, it's not even a friction.
"Aren't you afraid that the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire will summon the princes of the empire to expedition to Moscow in a fit of anger?"
Xia Liang, Hua Mulan, Xiao Chuo, Joan of Arc, and Huo Qing are all in Chang'an City, and they are no strangers to Ekaterina.
Xia Liang and Huo Qing, as players, know the conflicts among countries in the western continent.
Inside the Holy Roman Empire, there are also many princes. The German prince Hohenzollern unified the Holy Roman Empire and annexed the Kingdom of Hungary.
"The current Holy Roman Empire governs the Grand Duchy of Austria, the Kingdom of Hungary, the Kingdom of Bohemia, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, and other places, and annexes the western part of the Kingdom of Poland, so Hohenzollern cannot be allowed to continue to grow. And, the expedition to Moscow? Don't be kidding, Even with Napoleon in it, it would be impossible to conquer Moscow."
Ekaterina pushed back the long hair that covered her right eye, her words were somewhat conceited.
Chu Tian didn't think that Ekaterina's arrogance was groundless, because what Ekaterina said was right, the city of Moscow had been occupied more than once, but almost no one could conquer it.
The Mongols broke through Moscow many times, and Napoleon, the emperor of France, once occupied Moscow, but what was left to him was ruins. Soon, Tsarist Russia made a comeback.
The real masters who can rule the Bitter Cold Land are those people.
In Mobei of the Han Empire, the Mongols, Huns, and Xianbei tribes also grazed.
"But don't take it lightly. You have forgotten that there is a teleportation array. As long as they occupy Moscow and move troops from the Rhine to Moscow, it will not cost much gold coins."
Chu Tian still reminded Yekaterina.
The Holy Roman Empire can be regarded as a powerful civilization in the Western Continent.
Hohenzollern is a player, and the methods used are more diverse.
Although the Holy Roman Empire has the word Rome, the main body is the Germanic civilization of the Germans. In the national war of the rise of the barbarians, Hohenzollern replaced Alexander the Great to lead the kings and nobles of the western continent to defeat Atti, the whip of God** * Ascend to the throne of Holy Roman Emperor.
Currently, Hohenzollern is the most outstanding player in the Western Continent, and has become emperor.
Although Hohenzollern's territory is not as large as Chutian, it is already a good achievement to annex the Grand Duchy of Austria, the Kingdom of Hungary, and encroach on the Kingdom of Poland in the Western Continent, which is more balanced in strength.
"The existence of the teleportation array is indeed a breakthrough. In theory, it can shorten the supply line indefinitely... However, only the Holy Roman Empire can take away the entire Kingdom of Poland."
Ekaterina put down her teacup.
"Ding! The fifth national war is over, and it will start in April, 13th year of the lord calendar. Regarding the rules of the fifth national war, please pay attention to the big lords with a population of more than three million."
While Chu Tian, Xia Liang, Ekaterina and the others were chatting, the two great lords, Chu Tian and Ekaterina, suddenly received a reminder from the system, and they couldn't help being shocked.
In the thirteenth year of the feudal calendar, there will be a fifth national war.
The last national war "Rise of the Barbarians" lasted for two full years. All the lords suffered, and the structure of the main world also changed. This time the theme of the national war is "Break the boat", which sounds even more tragic.
