Rise of the Overlord

Chapter 128 The New Army of the Purple Moon Empire

In a mansion not far from the Prime Minister’s Mansion of the Ziyue Empire, a middle-aged man wearing the uniform of the Ziyue Empire’s Royal Army said respectfully to a young man about 26 or [-] years old: “Master, Of the thirteen infantry regiments currently deployed in the southern theater, the commanders of five infantry regiments have been replaced by ours, but recently the Prime Minister and Minister of the Army, Mr. Yuan, are sending people to track down the officers who died before. Are we going to proceed as planned?"

This young man has a handsome face and an air of elegance on his body. He smiled slightly at the middle-aged man and said, "Wen Zhong, don't worry. You should know that the person they sent to investigate the matter, They are also our people, and they can't find anything. When they know the truth, the overall situation should be settled, so it's business as usual. Let our people continue to implement the plan. I hope that the thirteen infantry regiments in the southern theater Legion commander, replace them with our own people."

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, what will the Su family army do then? The second princess and the third princess have already followed Su Yi, and my subordinates are worried that the Su family army will interfere in the affairs of our Ziyue Empire."

The young man said indifferently: "Don't worry, when we do it, it is impossible for the Su family army to have the energy to meddle in other business."

At this time, a guard walked into the room, came to the young man, and said a few words in the young man's ear, which immediately changed the young man's face, but soon his face returned to calm.

"I see, you go down first!" The young man said softly to the guard.

When the guard left the room, the young man sighed and said to the middle-aged man, "Wen Zhong, it seems that we have to change some plans."

"Master, what happened?"

"Our Majesty the Empress actually fell in love with Su Yi, and now she has become Su Yi's woman. What's worse, Her Majesty the Empress is going to ask the Su Family Army to help our Ziyue Imperial Army to form a new army. The formation and weaponry of the new army will be exactly the same as that of the Su family army, and most of the officers in the new army will also be served by members of the Su family army."

"What! There is such a thing! Young master, why don't we start in advance, once the new army is established, it will be difficult to handle."

The young man shook his head and said: "The army of the Orenza Empire is still launching an offensive on the battlefield in the southern region. At this time, it is very likely that the Orenza Empire will reap the benefits of the fisherman. What I want is the entire Purple Moon The empire doesn't want a mess."

"Master, what shall we do next?"

"Don't worry about the Su family army or the new army, continue to follow the original plan, and strive to control the thirteen infantry regiments in the southern theater as soon as possible."

After the middle-aged man also left the room, the young man's face suddenly showed a ferocious expression, "Ouyang Xue, you bitch, you dare to follow other men, when you fall into my hands, I will definitely You can't live, you can't die!"

Originally, according to Queen Ouyang Xue's itinerary, she would only stay in Kangshui City for three days at most, but now that she has become Su Yi's woman, Su Yi certainly would not let her leave Kangshui City so soon. Ouyang Wan is pregnant, and Ouyang Xue is the only woman Su Yi can make a fuss about.

So Empress Ouyang Xue lived in the Governor's Mansion in Kangshui City, and then Empress Ouyang Xue decreed that the No.19 Infantry Corps, No.20 Infantry Corps, No.20 Infantry Corps, and No. The 20th Second Infantry Regiment and the No.20 Third Infantry Regiment, leading 300 million recruits from the reserve force, rushed to Shiqiao County, Luochuan Province for reorganization.

The five infantry regiments mentioned above were all formed at the beginning of this year. Although the current number of each infantry regiment has reached 30, due to the lack of weapons and ammunition, more than 90.00% of the soldiers in these five infantry regiments are equipped. They are spears and broadswords. Even soldiers equipped with rifles are holding old breech-loading single-shot rifles.

Originally, Su Yi and Ouyang Xue planned to form forty infantry divisions of the Imperial Army of the Ziyue Empire first, so that only 300 million reserve recruits would be recruited, and then 20 officers and veterans would be drawn from the Su family army.

However, the Minister of War, Yuan Lin, learned that the Su family army was going to help the Ziyue Imperial Army form forty infantry divisions, so he sent several telegrams to Empress Ouyang Xue, hoping that when the forty infantry divisions were formed, the Ziyue Imperial Army's Royal Army could be formed. Some infantry regiments were also integrated into the newly built forty infantry divisions.

In fact, Yuan Lin, Minister of the Army, did this not because he wanted to add sand to the [-] new infantry divisions, but because the Ziyue Empire Royal Army will soon build [-] new infantry divisions. All supplies and military salaries will be provided by the Su family army. Responsible.

You must know that the finances of the Ziyue Empire are almost bankrupt. The War Department of the Ziyue Empire, not to mention paying the infantry regiments, many infantry regiments that did not join the southern region, even began to deduct their rations.

The reason why Minister of War Yuan Lin wanted to reorganize some infantry regiments into the newly built forty infantry divisions was to get rid of some heavy burdens.

For example, the No.19 Infantry Corps, No.20 Infantry Corps, No.20 Infantry Corps, No.20 Second Infantry Corps, and No.20 Three Infantry Corps are in short supply of weapons and ammunition. The battlefield in the southern region can only be used as a death squad. Given the current situation in the southern region, the role of these five infantry regiments is negligible, so it is better to leave it to Su Yi.

It was Su Yi's initiative to provide the forty infantry divisions of the Royal Army of the Ziyue Empire with salaries and various supplies. Of course, it is impossible for Su Yi to be taken advantage of. Although it still belongs to the Army Department of the Ziyue Empire in name, the command power is in the hands of Su Yi.

Empress Ouyang Xue mentioned Yuan Lin, Minister of the Army, to Su Yi. Su Yi agreed after a little consideration, and offered to send No.19 Infantry Corps, No.20 Infantry Corps, No.20 Infantry Corps, No.20 Infantry Corps The Second Infantry Corps and the No.20 Third Infantry Corps were transferred to Shiqiao County, Luochuan Province, ready to receive reorganization.

As for the reserve recruits of the Royal Army of the Ziyue Empire, Su Yi still asked for 300 million recruits as planned.

Because of the addition of five infantry regiments of the Royal Army of the Ziyue Empire, the number of officers and soldiers of the Su family army participating in this reorganization was 10 more than the original plan, reaching 30, and the number of infantry divisions formed was also [-] more than planned. .

Among the 30 officers and soldiers of the Su family army, there are 20 army-type junior combat biochemicals and [-] navy-type junior combat biochemicals, which Su Yi just purchased from the system on August [-], and the remaining [-] The people were drawn from the various field infantry divisions of the Su Family Army, most of them were ordinary people who joined the Su Family Army.

And just when Su Yi was preparing to help the Royal Army of the Ziyue Empire form [-] new infantry divisions, the war in the Cangyu Empire still did not stop, but intensified.

On the morning of August 3012rd, 20 in the Tang Dynasty, in a large hall of the royal palace in Feni City, the capital of the Sharad Empire, Emperor Herris asked the Minister of War Valerian in a cold voice: "The Ninth Army trapped in Dingxin City?" The Infantry Corps and the No.12 Fourth Infantry Corps, as well as the Eighth Infantry Corps, No.20 Infantry Corps, and No.[-] Fifth Infantry Corps trapped in Anzhou City have all persisted for more than a month now, so rescue them How long will it take for the reinforcements of their five infantry regiments to arrive, can you give me a specific date?"

Minister of War Valerian said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, both of our rescue teams encountered tenacious resistance from the Su's army. They were blocked by the Su's army all the way around Yanling City in southern Hebei Province, and all the way were blocked by the Su's army at the bridge in Lunan Province. Around Jiangcheng."

"I don't want to hear what difficulties you say, I just want to know how long it will take for the two reinforcements to reach Dingxin City and Anzhou City?"

At this time, Prime Minister Shulik helped Minister of War Valerian to rescue him and said: "Your Majesty, the Su family army has an advantage in artillery, which has already caused great losses to our two rescue forces. If you order the two rescue troops to strengthen their offensive Otherwise, not only the five besieged infantry regiments cannot be rescued, but the eleven infantry regiments and four independent infantry divisions of the two rescue forces may be defeated first."

Emperor Herris said with a gloomy expression: "Then what should we do? Don't we go to rescue the five infantry regiments who are besieged in Dingxin City and Anzhou City?"

Prime Minister Shulik immediately said: "Your Majesty, the Ninth Infantry Regiment and No.20 Fourth Infantry Regiment in Dingxin City, as well as the Eighth Infantry Regiment, No.12 Infantry Regiment and No.20 Fifth Infantry Regiment in Anzhou City, Although they have been attacked by the Su family army, the heavy artillery units of the Su family army cannot be used because the Su family army cares about the civilians in the two cities. Judging from the current situation in the two cities, their five legions should persist for another two or three months. Not a problem, so I feel that there is no need to force the two rescue forces to step up their attacks."

Minister of War Valerian hurriedly continued: "What the Prime Minister said is very true. The five infantry regiments under siege should be able to hold on for a short time. The most important thing now is to further strengthen the strength of the two rescue forces. A few days ago, the Cangyu Empire has promised to send about 500 million troops to help our Sharad Empire rescue the trapped five infantry regiments."

Emperor Herris was stunned for a moment, "The Cangyu Empire just lost more than 300 million troops, can they gather another 500 million troops?"

Minister of War Valerian said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty, most of the 500 million troops of the Cangyu Empire are fresh recruits, and these recruits have no weapons. We need the help of the Sharad Empire. These conscripted recruits are armed."
