Chapter 256
Facing the attack of the two kingdoms at the same time, even Xiao Chen had to be fully prepared.
The battlefield situation is changing rapidly. Even if the Great Zhou Empire has an advantage in high-end combat power, it cannot underestimate the opponent.
Didn't the great man say that we should despise the enemy strategically and pay attention to the enemy tactically.
At present, the main forces of the Dazhou Army are the Huo Lin Corps and the Tenglong Corps. These two legions add up to no more than 200,000 people. Together with the scattered local troops on the western and southern borders, the total strength is more than 300,000 people. .
According to the news from the Black Ice Platform, the Tianpeng Kingdom sent an army of 400,000 troops this time.
The slightly weaker Xianglong Kingdom also sent more than 200,000 troops, and the total strength of the two countries was almost double that of Dazhou.
In addition, whether it is logistics or reserve troops, Dazhou is far from being comparable to the two countries.
For Xiao Chen, the only good news might be the arrival of Zhao Yun and others.
The arrival of Zhao Yun, Shen Pei, Guo Jia, Zhu Wu and others made Xiao Chen's generals and civil servants even thicker than before.
The only strange thing is that Shangguan Wan'er, who was summoned earlier, has not appeared yet.
The cloud of war shrouded the sky over Da Zhou, and even the atmosphere of Zao Dynasty became solemn.
Xiao Chen had just destroyed the three great families, and the ministers of the aristocratic families in the court did not dare to disagree for the time being, and even looked at Xiao Chen with fear.
This emperor, but even the three major families are not scruples, and the person who destroys it will be destroyed.
If these small families angered him, they would not be swatted to death like flies.
In today's Great Zhou Empire Golden Palace, many strange figures appeared again.
The ministers in the court sighed in their hearts. Today, I am afraid that there will be a lot of officials Wu Sha will be at risk. Every time a new civil servant and military general appears in the hall, Xiao Chen will promote these people without hesitation. It is obvious that he trusts them. subordinates.
"Join Your Majesty!"
Xiao Chen just appeared in the Golden Palace, and all the officials bowed to him and shouted in unison.
Looking at the officials of the court, Xiao Chen didn't say nonsense, and said straight to the point: "The Xianglong Kingdom and the Tianpeng Kingdom invaded our Dazhou Empire, you all already know about it, I don't know what you think, this matter should be How to deal with it!"
"Two presumptuous small countries dare to openly invade our Great Zhou Empire. Only by completely destroying them can we exalt my Great Zhou Tianwei!"
Meng Tian was the first to stand up and said that he is the highest cultivation base among the generals in the court, and he is currently the most prestigious.
"Yes, those who violate the power of our empire shall be punished!"
"Also ask Your Majesty to send troops to conquer the two countries!"
"The last commander is willing to bring 30,000 iron cavalry, take the heads of the emperors of the two countries, and present them to your majesty!"
In today's Great Zhou Dynasty, almost all the high-ranking generals were Xiao Chen's henchmen. These famous generals were all belligerents, and the voice of the main battle also occupied the mainstream of the court.
Those civil servants also knew Xiao Chen's temper. Now the emperor doesn't know what it means to be complacent. Since Da Zhou was invaded by an enemy country, he will definitely return a hundredfold.
The war was unstoppable, and they would not stop Xiao Chen in a feverish way.
Sure enough, Xiao Chen said to the courtiers: "Tianpeng and Xianglong, the two kingdoms that invaded me Dazhou first, if I don't uproot them, I will be the emperor of Dazhou!"
After Xiao Chen set the tone for the early court, this time the early court lasted for nearly three hours, and the power structure of the imperial court underwent another major change.
Almost all the civil servants and generals summoned by Xiao Chen were assigned important positions by him.
The first is Wenchen. Xiao Chen established a cabinet on the basis of the six ministries to assist him in handling government affairs.
Xun Yu and Di Renjie, two capable ministers, became the first cabinet ministers.
And Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, Shen Pei, Zhang Jiao, plus Shen Changwen from this world and another old minister, served as six ministers.
As for the newly arrived Guo Jia, as well as the veteran advisor Jia Xu who followed Xiao Chen first, he was removed from the imperial court.
Now that the war is about to start, these two super-strategists will of course join the army.
Although the officials in the court were very dissatisfied with Xiao Chen's practice of handing over important clerical positions to his cronies, no one dared to give him any advice.
Although the Great Zhou court was not yet a single word, no one dared to challenge Xiao Chen's authority when it came to appointing officials.
As for the generals, Xiao Chen has made a relatively huge change. Whether it is the new generals or the generals who have been with him for a long time, he has almost all assigned them to the two major armies to deal with the upcoming battle.
Xiao Chen also arranged tasks for the several generals who were not assigned to the two major legions.
Under Xiao Chen's meticulous arrangement, the strength of the two major armies has been qualitatively improved.
After the adaptation, the Tenglong Corps will be led by Zhang Liao, and the subordinate generals at all levels include: Le Yi, Meng Gong, Yan Qing, and the military division is Guo Jia.
The leader of the Huo Lin Corps will be Li Cunxiao, and the subordinate generals at all levels include: Gao Shun, Hao Meng, Zang Ba, and the military advisor is Jia Xu.
The two major armies have gone to the front line, and these new generals will enter the army later.
Yuwen Chengdu continued to serve as the main general of the armor-piercing army in a hundred battles, defending Luocheng.
The golden fire cavalry led by Meng Tian temporarily went to the border between Nanzhou and Xizhou, ready to support the Tenglong Legion and the Huolin Legion at any time.
As for Huo Qubing's Hu Ben army, Xiao Chen did not let them participate in this war, but let them go north and incorporate the northern frontier army.
The northern frontier troops have never really belonged to Da Zhou, and they have always listened to the tune, so Xiao Chen naturally would not let them go.
In his empire, there is no place outside the law.
Although Huo Qubing only had an army of 3,000 tigers, Xiao Chen believed that he would be able to bring the army of 300,000 back to Da Zhou.
Luo Cheng, who had just formed the Eighteenth Cavalry of Yanyun, was also incorporated into the Hu Ben Army by Xiao Chen as the sharp knife of the Hu Ben Army.
In the future, the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun grew up, and they were again a demon that made the barbarians tremble.
"Zilong, join Yuanba to recruit troops around the Imperial City!"
"I assure you that no matter how many soldiers you can recruit, they will all be your soldiers."
"How, do you have the confidence to build an invincible army for me?" Xiao Chen looked at Zhao Yun and asked.
For Zhao Yun, a fierce general, Xiao Chen really likes it.
The white robe and the silver spear are full of courage.
Such a fierce general can just allow him to form the third legion of Da Zhou.
Now, Xiao Chen has completely mastered the martial arts and martial arts of the three great families, which is a fatal attraction to the martial artists under the Great Zhou Dynasty.
As long as this is the head, there is no need to worry about no warriors joining the army, and when the time comes, let Zhang Jiao, the king of fools, teach them a political lesson, and a powerful army will soon be established.
Zhao Yun was also excited. He did not expect that he would be entrusted with an important task just after arriving in Da Zhou, and immediately assured Xiao Chen: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Zilong will definitely form a powerful army for His Majesty!"
Xiao Chen nodded to him, and then said to Bai Qi: "General Bai Qi, I have now appointed you as the commander of the Great Zhou Army in this war. I hope you can lead Great Zhou to win this war."
Xiao Chen's speech was astonishing, no one could have imagined that he would appoint someone who had just arrived in Dazhou as the coach of this battle.
Even the people Xiao Chen summoned were somewhat suspicious of Bai Qi's ability.
But Bai Qi's eyes were indifferent, and he assured Xiao Chen, "I will win this battle!"
The words were short, but confident.
All the civil servants and generals in the courtroom looked sideways.
