Chapter 152: Arranging Troops(1/2)

For the Wu Dynasty, everything is really ready now.

And even the east wind is not lacking.

Ning Chen’s theory of Mahayana Buddhism is the east wind.

So now for the Wu Dynasty, a quick victory is the best option.

Ten days later, Ning Chen led a large army to Baijia City in Hezhou.

In addition to the Hezhou Baijia City, there are already a thousand city defense troops.

Currently, there are 4,000 city defense troops accumulated in hundreds of cities in Hezhou.

The city defense army is Ning Chen's own family.

Of course, with Wu Zhao's imperial edict, Ning Chen is now the general marshal of this Western Expedition.

The troops that can be mobilized are not just the four thousand city defense troops.

It also includes the 50,000 Huwei Army who have already settled in Hezhou at this time, as well as the 20,000 Forbidden Army and 50,000 Huwei Army who are on the way.

There are a total of 120,000 troops, all of which are under Ning Chen's control.

An army of 120,000 is actually a very large number.

In this ancient environment, the so-called million-strong army was an imaginary number.

It's said to be a million, so it would be nice to have half of it.

And among these half, at least four-fifths are civilian husbands.

The actual number of people participating in the battle may only be about 100,000.

Among the 100,000, only half of them are truly professional soldiers.

The remaining half are basically regiment training, or they are like reserve forces who do farm work on weekdays.

But the 120,000 troops under Ning Chen's command were all solid professional soldiers.

If you include the civilians who serve them, etc., Ning Chen may be commanding a real army of one million people.

Although the army has not arrived yet, arrangements must be made for the formation of troops.

As soon as people arrive, the battle will begin quickly.

Ning Chen didn't know much about the formation of troops, so Ning Chen would not arrange it directly, but left it to the two generals sent by Marquis Dingguo and King Jing.

"Brother Mu, you really miss me." Ning Chen said to Xu Muzhi enthusiastically.

Xu Muzhi directly chose to avoid Ning Chen.

Without it.

In front of Ning Chen, Xu Muzhi was really too insignificant.

He is so small that others cannot even see the light in him.

Especially in these years, Ning Chen's body has become more and more shining.

Just by pacifying the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters, Xu Muzhi will have to chase Ning Chen for the rest of his life.

The one sent by Marquis Dingguo was Xu Muzhi, and the one sent by King Jing was a general named Zhao Tuo.

This is also a fierce general under King Jing.

Ning Chen learned about General Zhao from General Wu.

Old General Wu still knows something about General Zhao.

Because this General Zhao once served as a captain under him.

General Wu still spoke highly of Zhao Tuo.

According to what Old General Wu said, this General Zhao is just like Changshan Zhao Zilong.

Both brave and wise.

He is very talented, and it only took him less than thirty years to reach the third level of martial arts.

He also made many military exploits in the army.

Whether it's leading a raid or commanding an army to attack.

Zhao Tuo is very capable.

"General Zhao." Ning Chen would not be too enthusiastic about this Zhao Tuo.

First of all, no one is familiar with them, and secondly, except for the rebellious guy, the rest of Prince Jing's people are all serious after all.

Zhao Tuo, who was nearly two meters tall, slender and dressed in regular clothes, respectfully returned the greeting: "General Zhao Tuo, I have met the Marquis."

"General Zhao doesn't need to be so restrained. Next, we have to rely on General Zhao to organize his troops. General Zhao can just be more casual." Ning Chen said looking at the reserved Zhao Tuo.

Zhao Tuo said quickly: "The Marquis is the leader of the military. In front of the Marquis, the general will not dare to be arrogant."

Ning Chen glanced sideways, and Xu Muzhi, who was looking away with a grin on his face, said: "Look at how polite they are, and then look at what you say."

After finishing speaking, Ning Chen did not give Xu Muzhi a chance to refute, and directly said to Zhao Tuo: "General Zhao, although I am the leader of the military strategist, my troops are unpredictable, my power and water are unpredictable.

Not all my methods of war are the most timely.

Moreover, I have just arrived in Hezhou, and I don’t know much about the situation in Hezhou and the Western Regions as you two do.

Now the court wants us to fight quickly, so it gives me very little time to understand.

So the next formation of troops can only be left to you two."

After hearing Ning Chen's words, Zhao Tuo felt more respect for Ning Chen in his heart.

Xu Muzhi watched from the side, and his eyes widened even more.

In Xu Muzhi's view, Ning Chen had never commanded such a large-scale battle.

Although he is the master of military art, his lack of experience is in vain.

Xu Muzhi knew about the matter of pacifying the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters.

But the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters was not defeated, but was leveled by a holy path.

But here in the Buddhist Kingdom of the Western Regions, it really needs to be fought with real swords and guns.

I have to say that Xu Muzhi understands Ning Chen quite well.

But what Xu Muzhi saw was Ning Chen standing on the first floor. In fact, Ning Chen was standing on the fifteenth floor.

Then Ning Chen continued to say to Zhao Tuo and Xu Muzhi: "Let me tell you the reason why the court asked us to fight quickly."

Then Ning Chen told Zhao Tuo and Xu Muzhi everything about how he met the second-rank Western Region man on the road and what he told him about Mahayana Buddhism.

After Zhao Tuo heard what Ning Chen said, he was in direct awe of Ning Chen.

After hearing what Ning Chen said, Xu Muzhi was first shocked, and then gritted his teeth.

This time, Ning Chen actually tricked him again.

But Xu Muzhi had to admit that the theory of Mahayana Buddhism.

It's really amazing.

If such a theory was discovered by him, Xu Muzhi.

And it spread to the Buddhist countries in the Western Regions.

Thinking about such a thing makes Xu Muzhi very excited.

I was so excited that my whole body was shaking.

Ning Chen looked back at Xu Muzhi and said, "General Xu, are you feeling unwell?"

Xu Muzhi met Ning Chen's eyes, immediately calmed down his emotions, and said expressionlessly: "No, I'm fine."

Ning Chen smiled slightly, and then continued: "This is how things are now. So in this battle, except that I don't understand the situation.

Also, because of Mahayana Buddhism matters, I cannot directly participate in them.

But if I stay here, I can help you contain a large number of people.

After all, compared to the Wu Dynasty, I am now the biggest threat to the entire Buddhist Kingdom in the Western Regions."

Zhao Tuo nodded and said: "Master Hou is right, if Master Hou is here, it can indeed help us contain a large number of people.

But if this happens, the danger that Mr. Hou will face will be even greater.

After all, Baijia City is here, if the Western Region is really determined and dispatches a few second-grade Bodhisattvas."

Zhao Tuo didn't finish speaking, but Ning Chen already understood what Zhao Tuo meant.

"Don't worry, when it's time to abandon the city, I will abandon the city decisively.

This Baijia City does not have any iconic significance to me.

It is just a city.

If you save people and lose land, everyone and land will be gained. If you save people and lose people, everyone and land will be lost.
