Chapter 248 Tossing Coins and Harvesting

The next day, in the county lieutenant's mansion, all the generals of the Black Armored Army gathered together. Shang Jigao sat at the head, and on the left and right were Liu Yi and Wang Shu, the highest officials.

"General!" Wang Shu stood up and cupped his hands in reverence, and then said: "The task of recruiting the Xiangping Army has been basically completed. Our army has recruited a total of 380,000 Xiangping defenders, plus the original headquarters. There are currently 450,000 troops!"

Of Xiangping's original 500,000 troops, 250,000 went out to fight, and 250,000 stayed behind to defend the city.

Part of the battle cooperated with the Shangji army and wiped out 700,000 Xianbei troops. Although the Xianbei Army lost its chief and deputy commanders successively, it fell into chaos and its combat power plummeted.

But after all, it was an army of 700,000, and Shang Ji paid a high price for annihilating them.

The 120,000 Black Armored Army in the headquarters had less than 70,000 survivors after the war, and the heavy armored soldiers suffered the most serious losses. Only less than 3,000 of the 10,000 heavy armored soldiers remained, and the reduction in personnel exceeded 70%.

The 250,000 Xiangping Army killed more than 100,000 in battle, and only 130,000 survived after the war.

With the only army left in his hands, Shang Ji carried out military adventures, completed the feat of swallowing elephants in one fell swoop, and forcibly incorporated the intact 250,000 troops in the city.

So far, the total number of Shangji troops has broken through the 400,000 mark, reaching 450,000 in one fell swoop.

"How is the combat strength of the newly recruited soldiers? How is the morale of the army?"

"Thanks to the general's supernatural power, all the soldiers have no obvious resistance. The morale of the army is still stable, but the fighting spirit is not high." Having said that, Wang Shu paused, and then said: "As for the strength, there are strong and weak. Among them, there are about 200,000 elites who can reach the fourth level (the surviving troops accounted for the majority), and the rest are basically around the third level."

"Select elite soldiers and transfer them to special arms!"

In this battle, several special arms, which are the core strength of the Shangji Army, suffered huge casualties and urgently needed to be replenished.

The heavy armored swordsman has already said that the main force of the black armored Xuanqi was 8,000 before the battle, but only more than 3,000 were left after the war, and more than half were killed.

Before the battle, the wolf cavalry and the Dayan iron cavalry were both five thousand. After the war, there were two thousand wolf cavalry left, and the Dayan iron cavalry was better, with more than three thousand left.

The least casualties were Liu Yi's long-shot strong bow and roaming dragon bow cavalry. Relying on long-range attacks and the desperate protection of friendly troops, the casualty rate was less than 20%, which was the lowest casualty army.

"Black Armored Black Cavalry, Dayan Iron Cavalry, Wolf Cavalry, and Fierce Sun Cavalry are the first to expand, and strive to expand to 10,000 people for each type! Dragon Bow Cavalry is second, and the target is 20,000 people!"

"Heavy armored swordsmen and long-shot strong bows are finally scheduled to expand to 20,000 people!"

"If there is still room left, expand the Northland crossbow and giant axe soldiers to 20,000 as well!"

Shang Ji ordered.

"Brother, we are not equipped enough!"

Deng Yan, who was called by Shang Ji overnight, got up and said.

"Guo Biao, what's the harvest in the arsenal?"

"My lord!"

Guo Biao immediately stood up and reported: "At the end of yesterday, he was ordered to seal up the arsenal. After an inventory, 300,000 sets of fine-grade suits, 60,000 sets of hundred-forged suits, 5,000 sets of iron-grade suits, and 5,000 sets of silver-level suits were found in the arsenal. There are more than a thousand pieces of high-level equipment above, and the highest level is Ziyao-level equipment, a total of sixteen pieces!"

"In addition, our army has harvested 600,000 gold, 2 million shi of food, and more than 10,000 horses!"

Shang Ji frowned more and more as he listened, and after a while, seeing that Guo Biao had finished his report, he couldn't help asking suspiciously, "Why are there so few supplies in the treasury of the mighty city?"

Of course, these things are huge for ordinary players, but by Jucheng's standards, they are as poor as grandma's house!

Among other things, 600,000 gold is the salary of 500,000 troops for one month, and 2 million shi is enough for three months at most. How could there be only this in the majestic Liaodong County?

"My lord, according to the officials of the arsenal, many of these things have just entered the warehouse recently. Originally, the treasury of Liaodong County could starve mice to death!"

"My lord, I heard that the recruited soldiers once said that their military pay and food were often withheld. Before Xianbei attacked, they hadn't been paid for three consecutive months." As soon as Guo Biao finished speaking, Su Huan got up and said.

"Asshole,

The officials are so corrupt, it is no wonder that the Xianbei people can enter the land of no one in Liaodong! "Shang Ji immediately cursed angrily when he heard the words.

The two lives were human beings, and they were both generals who fought on the battlefield. What Shang Ji hated the most was the bastard who withheld the soldiers' food and military pay. The soldiers throw their heads and blood on the battlefield, and finally end up bleeding and crying. This is the most intolerable thing for Shang Ji.

"Hong Zhuo, how much money does our army have?"

"Two million and three hundred thousand gold, including the part confiscated by General Guo Biao!" These figures kept lingering in Deng Yan's mind, and when Shang Ji asked, he immediately blurted out.

Shang Ji closed his eyes and pondered for a moment when he heard the words, and then said decisively: "Take out two million gold and reward all of them to the soldiers. Those who fight will be rewarded more, those who have meritorious service will be rewarded more, and the dead will be compensated according to this principle."

"Foolish brother takes orders!"

Rubbing the center of his brows, Shang Ji asked again: "What will our army gain by wiping out the Xianbei army?"

This battle wiped out 700,000 Xianbei troops. Counting the 200,000 Xianbei troops annihilated by Shangji before, 90% of the million Xianbei in Liaodong County died directly or indirectly in the hands of Shangji's army. The harvest must be objective.

The merchants who have just completed another wave of coins are in urgent need of supplementary funds.

Deng Yan laughed immediately when he heard the words. The wealth gained in this battle is absolutely blinding, and it is exactly the same. Just now, Shang Ji threw out two million gold with a swiping of a pen. Deng Yan didn't say a word of dissuasion, because he knew, compared The harvest, a mere two million gold, is not worth mentioning at all!

Clearing his throat, Deng Yanhong said in a loud voice: "According to the accumulated statistics of various ministries, our army has confiscated 16 million gold and horses in this battle..."

"boom……"

Just as Deng Yan confided a number, the generals in the hall suddenly fell into a boil, and the discussion burst into the sky.

"Silence!" Shang Ji frowned and shouted angrily.

The generals were silent when they heard the words, but the ecstasy on the faces of the people could not be concealed no matter what.

Shang Ji's face was full of solemnity, but his hands pinched his thigh desperately behind him to prevent himself from losing his composure.

This number is really astonishing. Although it was expected that the harvest would be very rich, it was never expected to be so rich. The pure money harvest of World War I was tens of millions!

After thinking for a while, Shang Ji came to his senses.

The Xianbei army looted half of Liaodong County. Although the main targets of looting were relatively poor villages and towns, they couldn't stand the large population base!

I don't know how many people died tragically under the Xianbei butcher's knife, so it's not surprising that there are 16 million gold.

"In this way, all of you will fight bloody battles with Ji for several days, and Ji will not be grateful. Everyone here today will receive 50,000 gold and go back to subsidize the family!" Shang Ji stood up and said loudly to the generals.

Everyone looked at each other and looked at each other.

Although more than 10 million gold was harvested, no one would think of dividing up this huge sum of money. Each person was rewarded with 50,000 gold, although compared to the total, the generals were very satisfied, and even felt that the reward was too heavy, so they dared not accept it lightly.

Seeing this, Shang Ji smiled and said: "This is the reward you deserve for the bloody battle, so don't worry!"

"I thank the lord for the reward!"
