The world of counterfeit magistrates competes in the world

Chapter 511 All-round melee
At the beginning of August, Meng Tong led [-] cavalry to tour the countries and issued a temporary call-up order.

Although the more than forty countries complained about this, under the pressure of the army, they had no choice but to recruit people who were good at riding in the country to serve in the Hengshan army.At the same time, they also knew that if Hengshan was defeated, the Western Regions would be ruined again. Now that they were tied to Hengshan's chariot, they could only bite the bullet and go on.

What's more, joining the Hengshan Army this time is not without benefits. As long as they can win, the countries participating in the war with the army can get a lot of income.More importantly, whichever country contributes the most, the higher its status in Hengshan's eyes, the greater the benefits it will receive.The combination of these factors can't help but make all countries participate in this war with both heartache and excitement.

In addition to the contribution of troops from various countries, the large and small Hengshan caravans immediately became a sensation after seeing the call-up order.Seeing this, many veterans serving as caravan guards resigned from their employers as guards, and prepared to rush to the assembly point to enlist in the army.

According to the Hengshan Military Law, temporarily recruited soldiers enjoy the same treatment as the regular army, not only receiving military pay, but also distributing spoils of war.The most important thing is to be able to gain military merit again after retiring.As long as you kill a few more enemies, your own fields and status will be improved again.This made the veterans who had already looked forward to the future and didn't have much hope feel very excited.

At the same time, the shopkeepers of the caravan found huge business opportunities after reading the call-up order. Although the risk was a bit high, the rewards were very rich, and it was worth taking the risk.Immediately, he didn't care about the goods he had just purchased, and immediately sold the goods locally at a low price, and then bought a large amount of food and grass supplies, grabbed the guard who wanted to bid farewell to him, and yelled to go with him.

Merchants going out with the army this time will not only be able to get enough remuneration for escorting the army's grain and supplies, but more importantly, to obtain the preferred option for the spoils of war.Everyone knows that the price of armaments has always been very expensive, as long as they are sent to other countries for sale, the profits can be multiplied.And the preferred choice will be able to pick out the most valuable things.

Meng Tong scattered [-] cavalry soldiers among various countries, set up barracks on the outskirts of the city, and set up a conscription office to test the arrivals.True, not everyone who enrolls enlists in the military.The screening criteria of the Hengshan Army are very strict. Although the temporary recruitment has lowered the criteria a lot, not everyone can join.

First of all, the people who come to apply must have better riding skills.The requirements in this regard eliminated one-third of the people. The low elimination rate was also due to the social structure of the Western Regions, which was half-agricultural and half-pastoral. Much higher.Not to mention the Hengshan people in the Western Regions, after several years of promotion, the vast majority of Hengshan people travel by horses, so there is no need to talk about riding skills.

The second is to have a certain military quality.Hengshan implements a compulsory military service system, and all young men are required to undergo military training of varying sizes. Over the past few years, the militia organization has changed round after round, and organizes a national drill every year to familiarize themselves with the use of weapons. and fighting skills.As for the people from the Western Regions, many people are quite familiar with killing enemies on the battlefield after years of melee, but they lack discipline and tactics.

Finally, it must be voluntary.This point was deliberately added by Hou Mingfeng. He didn't want the soldiers who were coerced to join in to harm the army at the most critical moment of the battle.This kind of thing has happened many times in history, because the coerced soldiers fought timidly, and finally turned their own army, causing the army that was originally in sight of victory to be defeated.

Although there are these three rigid standards, there is still an endless stream of people who get up and apply.Many of them are merchant guards in Hengshan. Most of these people are veterans who were wounded on the battlefield and retired, or who have reached the end of their military service.

For these people, the Hengshan Army is naturally happy to take them under its command. With the addition of these veterans, as long as they get acquainted with each other a little, they can quickly add to the cavalry ranks.

As for the people from the Western Regions who came to apply, the standards of the Hengshan Army were much stricter.After conducting some assessments on him, he was recruited into the army.These people will receive strict training from the Hengshan Army in the days to come.

In this way, within a few days, the Hengshan Army in various places recruited nearly ten thousand recruits, and this was just the beginning.

The Hengshan Army's call-up order spread throughout the Western Regions, and the Xijin werewolves naturally learned of it immediately.Facing the Hengshan army showing their fangs so recklessly, the Xijin werewolf also knew that his intentions had been detected by the Hengshan army.Dang even tore off the camouflage, no longer cover up.The army began to gather in the North Western Region to prepare for the southern expedition.However, the Xijin werewolves did not dare to be careless about the large-scale conscription of the Hengshan Army in the Western Regions. If Hengshan was allowed to recruit a large number of troops, it would be difficult for the army to go south to regain the Western Regions.

As a result, countless Western Golden Wolf cavalry were divided into small groups of cavalry, attacking from all directions, and went south to the Central and Western Regions to plunder and harass.The intention is to disturb the peace of the Central and Western Regions and slow down Hengshan's recruitment in the Western Regions.At the same time, it is also looking for the Hengshan caravan to attack and wipe out these potential enemies.

Naturally, Hengshan will not sit idly by, Murong Tan has already led ten thousand cavalry northwards, raiding all the countries, and the front of the soldiers once crossed the territory of the West Golden Wolf Kingdom.The Xijin werewolf did not dare to be careless, and had to dispatch tens of thousands of cavalry to search for this cavalry.But Murong Tan is as cunning as a fox, he just broke through the capital of a small country and burned their food and grass, then immediately moved to the battlefield.However, within a few days, the cavalry was found again in the territory of Xijinlang.

Tens of thousands of West Golden Wolf cavalry rushed back and forth, but they couldn't bite the tail of this Hengshan cavalry, and were played around by it.

On the other side of the battlefield, fierce fights are erupting within the borders of various countries.Meng Tong's scattered cavalry regiments, while recruiting troops, led the recruits to fight against the Western Golden Wolf cavalry.While fighting against the Xijin werewolves, they trained their troops by battle, so that these recruits could grow up quickly on the battlefield.

All of a sudden, the central and northern western regions were in chaos, and the countries were sandwiched between the two powerful armies, so they had no choice but to gather a large number of troops and defend themselves.The Western Regions, which were originally prosperous in commerce and rich in products, quickly declined in a short period of time.No one knows how many small countries can survive the great war between the great powers among the countries in the Western Regions today.I don't even know how long this war will last.
