Zongwu: Li Xiuning proposes to marry, and signs to Jinyiwei

"If our Song Clan's army meets the Beiwei Army, I'm afraid we will be smashed to pieces after being killed by a few."

Song Yuzhi was still a little confused about why Mu Yuan was always so confident.

Where is the source of his confidence?

Now that she was sure, if she had such a strong army as the Beiwei army, how could she not have confidence?

Don't talk about self-confidence, even she may be proud.

Mu Yuan gave Song Yuzhi a blank look, "How could it be so exaggerated? Although the Beiwei army is very strong, the Song Clan is one of the four great lords in the world, with tens of thousands of mercenaries, how could it be so easy to defeat."

Even Yang Guang, let alone Mu Yuan, is afraid of the world's four great powers.

Even the weakest Song Clan among them, Mu Yuan felt that he should not be underestimated.

Not to mention Li Fan.

He never thought that he could compete for the world only by relying on the Beiwei army.

The Beiwei army is the elite among them, but he still needs a large number of ordinary soldiers.

It is impossible to use the Beiwei Army in any kind of war.

The cost would be too high. You must know that the selection of the Beiwei army was already quite harsh, and there were not many qualified people.

In addition, the weapons and equipment used by the Beiwei Army are also very expensive. I am afraid that only those craftsmen who come with the Beiwei Army can make them.

Therefore, the Beiwei Army is definitely not a regular army. If the Beiwei Army is used as a regular army, even Mu Yuan cannot afford it.

Fortunately, the Beiwei army also brought its own craftsman army, so that not only can it make weapons and equipment for the Beiwei army, but it can also mass-produce weapons to equip ordinary troops.

It was only after Mu Yuan finished speaking that Song Yuzhi said, "No, I know our army very well. In a head-to-head confrontation, the tens of thousands of elites from the Song Clan are definitely not opponents against the Wei army."

"The Beiwei army is indeed the real elite."

Song Yuzhi was absolutely not exaggerating at all, she really felt that the Beiwei army could completely wipe out the Song Clan's troops.

Because the Song Clan did not want to participate in the struggle for hegemony, the Song Clan's army was not large, only more than 5 people, and their strength was not very strong.

Compared with the Wagang Army, the Xiliang Army, and the Liang Division are all inferior.

After all, the Wagang Army has 30 people, and the Xiliang Army also has 15 Xiliang cavalry, and Liang Shidu has [-] armored men.

Even Du Fuwei has tens of thousands of mercenaries.

Any force is much stronger than the Song Clan.

The four major valves are mainly resources and fame much stronger than others.

In this era, fame is very important, because without fame, no talent will join you, and no family will be willing to support you.

0····Ask for flowers·····

In the situation where most of the resources in the whole world are concentrated in the family, it is very important to get the support of the family.

Just like Mu Yuan, if it wasn't because of the army obtained by the system, with his background and reputation, he wanted to revolt?Wash and sleep.

In the world, the four great clans are the most powerful in terms of reputation and resources, except for the Sui Dynasty.

Among them, the Li clan and the Yuwen clan are the most powerful.

The Li Clan has been resisting the Turks in Bingzhou all the year round, and has already trained a group of troops with strong combat effectiveness. He also formed a private army under the name of being inferior to the Turks.

And traded with Turks and obtained a large number of war horses.

Coupled with the name of the Li family, many talents have defected to the Li family.

This is the role of fame.

Therefore, even if the Song Clan is not as powerful as many rebels, the name of the Song Clan alone is already quite valuable.

Mu Yuan is very calm, he doesn't care if he is better than the Song Clan.

"I don't know how many soldiers and horses can be recruited in Pingliang City."

At this time, Li Xiuning and Hongfo saw Mu Yuanyuan's gaze.

"We are all happy to capture Pingliang City, but my husband is worried about recruiting troops."

"Sure enough, my husband is not an ordinary person."

Li Xiuning held Mu Yuan's hand, "Husband, if there is anything I can do to help, I will definitely do my best."

Li Xiuning planned to use the name of Miss Li Jiasi to help Mu Yuan recruit soldiers.

In the Sui Dynasty, Li Xiuning's name was definitely much easier to use than Mu Yuan, this is a fact.

But Mu Yuanke never thought of relying on Li Xiuning.

And if Li Xiuning's name is used, it will have too much influence on her.

"Don't worry, this matter is not in a hurry, let's eat the troops of Liang Shidu first and then talk about it."

The main generals in Pingliang City have all been beheaded by Yue Yun and Zhang Xian.

In the fight last night, the defenders of Pingliang City did not suffer many casualties because they were attacked by the Beiwei army.

Now there are about 5000 people.

Their leaders were all dead, and Muyuan could get [-] ordinary soldiers just by sending some officers to organize them.

They can serve as the defense of Pingliang City.

These armies will work for whoever feeds them. As long as all the generals are killed, there is no need to worry about them rebelling.

And Mu Yuan only needed them to defend Pingliang City, and didn't need them to participate in the battle to besiege and kill Liang Shidu's reinforcements.

As long as you wait a few months, you can convert all these soldiers into your own army.

Mu Yuan believes that Yue Yun and Zhang Xian have this ability.

In the fight last night, the cavalry of the Beiwei Army did not lose many people, but the infantry suffered more than 200 casualties.

It did not affect the continuous combat of the Beiwei army.

But after this war is over, Mu Yuan intends to select some soldiers to join the Beiwei army.

Chapter 111 The Women's Worship of Muyuan

When the carriage entered Pingliang City, walking on the streets of Pingliang City, there were many fearful people on the side of the road.

Watching the convoy passing by, they all sighed.

"Hey, I don't know who captured this city again, and it's going to collect taxes again, these gangs of gods~".

Before the man finished speaking, his companion covered his mouth.

"You don't want to live anymore. These people are not easy to mess with. After a day of fighting yesterday, they took down this fortified city."

"I was able to see it with my own eyes last night. This group of people killed people without blinking an eye, as if they were evil ghosts crawling out of hell."

"If they hear it, they can't kill you."

After finishing speaking, this person also sighed.

Originally, in Yang Guang's period, because of the three levies against Goryeo, the internal levies were violent, and then it was occupied by Liang Shidu, and the taxes collected were higher than Yang Guang's.

Now many people can no longer survive.

Except for serving as a soldier to make a living, everyone else can only half-dead.

The 10,000+ stone grain in Pingliang City did not come for no reason.

It was obtained by expropriating grain from Pingliang County.

　"Five Ninth Seven" Now that Mu Yuan has captured the city, many people feel that Mu Yuan must collect taxes again.

Many people are standing on both sides of the street, their eyes are blank, they are almost unable to survive.

These days, only aristocratic families and soldiers can eat enough, and the common people are basically in a half-dead state.

Mu Yuan sitting in the carriage can naturally see the state of the people on the street from the window.

But he didn't sigh.

Because he already knew this scene.

And in troubled times, this situation is inevitable.

He didn't think there was anything strange about it. The only thing that could change this situation was to defeat Liang Shidu and take control of the entire Hetao Plain.

The development of agriculture and mulberry allows the people to re-invest in production.

As long as there is one thing to do and can support themselves, then most of the people are basically satisfied.

In this era, it is really unrealistic to talk about feeding everyone and warming everyone up.

Productivity alone is simply impossible to achieve.

What Mu Yuan has to do is to get rid of Liang Shidu first, and then let these people return to the farmland. Light corvee and low tax are the greatest charity for them.

It is even impossible for Mu Yuan to distribute the grain and grass in the granaries in Pingliang City to the people.

Because this kind of behavior is meaningless drinking poison to quench thirst.

Song Yuzhi lay on the window and looked at the people on both sides of the street looking at them in fear.

Some feel distressed, "Muyuan, let's open a warehouse to release food, they are so pitiful."

What Song Yuzhi said was approved by Fu Junmao, Wanwan, and Red Buddha.

Mu Yuan didn't answer Song Yuzhi's words, but looked at Li Xiuning, "Xiuning, what do you think?".

Li Xiuning originally wanted to agree with Song Yuzhi, these people are really pitiful.

But when she saw Mu Yuan looking at her, she thought of something.

So he smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid it is not a good thing to open a warehouse to release grain at this time."

After Li Xiuning finished speaking, Song Yuzhi and the others were stunned.

"Sister Xiuning, you, what are you talking about? How did you become so cold-blooded?".

Song Yuzhi couldn't believe it, why did her sister Xiuning, who was always very kind, become like this?
