The scattered soldiers of Qianhuang City total nearly 350,000.
The 200,000 soldiers who followed Shen Yong were all carefully selected by him, and they all had very good abilities.
Moreover, although the accuracy of each crossbow arrow may not be 100%, it is still possible for seven or eight out of ten to hit the target.
This is because the training time is a bit short, otherwise the accuracy can be better.
Two hundred thousand crossbowmen is scary to even mention.
How could Emperor Tianwu have the ability to equip 200,000 soldiers with such sophisticated crossbows?
These crossbow arrows were given by gods, they are not ordinary crossbow arrows.
It is an exaggeration for other armies to say that they are assisted by God, but when King Qianhuang’s army says that they are assisted by God, they really are assisted by God.
He must strengthen the training of the more than 100,000 soldiers left in Qianhuang City and strive to make them hit the target every time.
By winter, the Fire Phoenix Kingdom would be ready to make a move and would harass Qianhuang City several times.
This time, he wanted to make sure that the people from the Fire Phoenix Country would never return.
Deng Yushan curled his lips into a smile and looked at Jiang Daqiang. "There are a lot of empty rooms in the barracks. We can take in more soldiers. There are less than 200,000 soldiers on the border. I feel so empty inside."
Jiang Daqiang smiled and said, "The prince said that anyone who meets the requirements and is willing to join the army will be accepted."
Deng Yushan smiled and nodded, and seeing Mrs. Shen's tears in her eyes, he persuaded her,
"Old Madam, don't worry. The prince is no ordinary man. This trip will surely go smoothly."
All the cities were suffering, and at this time King Qianhuang came to deliver food and water. It was like a living Bodhisattva descending.
Back then, Qianhuang City was already struggling and on the verge of collapse, so everyone followed King Qianhuang in tacit understanding.
For those who are unwilling to follow, the grass on their graves is already two meters high.
"Of course, Old Seven has the help of the gods, so everything will go smoothly."
Madam Shen chuckled lightly, "It's just that a mother worries when her child is thousands of miles away. This is inevitable."
"I only hope that the gods will bless my son and that he will have a safe journey and kill the tyrant soon."
As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Daqiang and Deng Yushan's pupils shrank.
Hearing those caring and tender words, they felt a chill to their bones.
The Shen family really doesn't take Emperor Tianwu seriously.
Although they also followed Chen Yong, they still inevitably had a deep-seated reverence for imperial power.
At least when they mentioned Emperor Tianwu, they couldn't help but feel a little afraid.
Unlike the Shen family, when they mentioned Emperor Tianwu, they always said "kill the tyrant."
Deng Yushan and Jiang Daqiang looked at each other, smiled at the same time, and said in unison,
"That's right, King Qianhuang will definitely be able to kill the tyrant."
Now that you have embarked on the path of rebellion, you can no longer be afraid of Emperor Tianwu.
They are enemies now, so there is no reason to be afraid of them.
........
White Dragon City...
"Sir, King Qianhuang's army will be here soon."
The soldiers who were scouting ahead hurriedly climbed up the city gate tower to report.
Governor Liu stretched his neck to look at the large army approaching on the official road, and his breathing became more and more rapid due to excitement.
"Let's go, follow me to greet King Qianhuang."
Magistrate Liu had a smile on his face and excitedly led a group of officials down the city gate tower.
Ever since he attended the palace's housewarming ceremony, he has been feeling uneasy.
The palace was built so luxuriously and beautifully.
He was afraid that King Qianhuang would become addicted to pleasure and stay in the Qianhuang Palace without moving.
If that were the case, then when Emperor Tianwu realized something was wrong and came to kill him, he would be the first one to suffer.
After all, King Qianhuang only arranged a few hundred people to guard the south gate of Bailong City.
How can such a small number of people compete with Emperor Tianwu's army?
He was so anxious during this period that blisters appeared at the corners of his mouth.
Today, King Qianhuang's army finally arrived, and he could finally put his heart at ease.
Once King Qianhuang takes over Fanjing City, he will be able to rest assured.
"Sir, they are coming. The army is coming." Zhao Tongpan stood behind Prefect Liu and looked towards the official road excitedly.
Magistrate Liu nodded excitedly, looking forward to King Qianhuang's arrival.
The officials in Bailong City were all dumbfounded when they saw how excited Prefect Liu and Judge Zhao were.
They had heard before that the aristocratic families of Bailong City followed Magistrate Liu to Qianhuang City to celebrate a new house.
It’s still strange. Who is King Qianhuang and why did he suddenly appear?
However, Magistrate Liu kept the matter secret, and they had no way of finding out the details. They only knew that Bailong City's water and food were borrowed from Qianhuang City.
I also learned about some of the things that happened in Qianhuang City from the soldiers who had been there.
They felt something was wrong at the time, but they couldn't tell what was wrong.
Now seeing King Qianhuang bringing a large army to Bailong City, Prefect Liu and Judge Zhao are so excited.
They finally realized something was wrong.
A prince is coming from the border with a large army. If this isn't forcing the emperor to abdicate and rebel, what is he?
Thinking of this, the officials all turned pale and looked at the excited Prefect Liu and Judge Zhao in disbelief.
These two must have committed treason long ago, but they had been hiding it from them.
This is really...
Looking at the army of King Qianhuang right before their eyes, no matter how dissatisfied they were, they had to swallow it.
How could they, as mere civil officials, compete with these military generals?
Besides, the prefect has committed treason. It is useless for these insignificant officials to resist. They will just be asking for their heads.
After all, they were officials with long experience in officialdom. When the army arrived at the city gate, all the officials had adjusted their mentality.
"I, Liu Boyu, the governor of Bailong City, respectfully welcome King Qianhuang!!"
Magistrate Liu shouted excitedly and knelt down respectfully.
Zhao Tongpan followed closely behind and knelt down. Seeing this, the officials behind him also knelt down to greet him.
"No need to be so polite!" Shen Yong raised his hand.
After thanking him, Prefect Liu stood up, bowed, looked up and smiled at Chen Yong.
"Your Highness, I respectfully welcome you! Your Highness has worked so hard on this journey, and I have specially prepared a small banquet to welcome you. I hope Your Highness will honor me with your presence!"
Shen Yong looked at Prefect Liu calmly, "Okay."
After traveling for a day and a night, the soldiers deserve a hot meal.
Moreover, he had originally planned to rest in Bailong City for two days.
Shen Yong took his sisters-in-law in battle robes and the Six Tiger Generals to the prefectural government office.
After the meal, Shen Yong sat in the first seat and looked at Prefect Liu.
"How is the recruitment of soldiers from Bailong City going?"
Prefect Liu quickly replied, "Your Highness, we have 50,000 new recruits. Bailong City has been suffering from drought for too long, and the people are in very poor health."
"I have already recruited all the young men who can move around in Bailong City, and there are only 50,000 of them."
The lively man in Bailong City secretly ran away to Qianhuang City to join the army a month or two ago.
If one person can support his family by serving as a soldier in Qianhuang City, who wouldn’t want to go?
The rest are those who are too weak to carry anything on their shoulders or lift anything with their hands.
