Chapter 136 The National War Begins! (First Update)
Feng Changqing is worthy of being Gao Xianzhi's deputy general, and even his character traits can match those of Gao Xianzhi.

Under the influence of these two people, the combat power of the Anxi Army increased by 65%, the upper limit of the morale of the Anxi Army increased to 130, the combat power of the vassal army increased by 30%, and the upper limit of morale increased to 115.

With the partnership of Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing, the Anxi Army has undergone a complete transformation and its combat effectiveness has been qualitatively improved.

The Anxi Army also has a fierce general named Li Siye who leads the Tang Dynasty's Modao Team as the vanguard and can form an army of its own.

The national war lineup increases by 700 Anxi troops, leaving 2500 quotas.

He also needs to bring 200 white-robed soldiers and 100 night guards.

This way the quota is even less.

Li Qian allocated the remaining quota mainly to archers and crossbowmen, as well as a light cavalry of 500 people.

Li Qian checked the deployment of the Ming army in this battle.

The chief general of the Ming army was Li Rusong, the eldest son of the famous general Li Chengliang. He was in charge of the military affairs of Ji, Liao, Baoding and Shandong, and was also the commander-in-chief of the coastal defense against the Japanese. His brothers Li Rubai and Li Rumei were deputy commanders-in-chief. Under him, the Ming army had 1 Liaodong cavalry, 1 Xuanfu and Datong elite cavalry, 6 Jizhen and Baoding elite infantry, and 1 Jiangsu and Zhejiang infantry. Liu Ying, the deputy commander-in-chief of Sichuan, led 3 Sichuan troops as the follow-up troops.

The Ming army was mainly composed of cavalry and firearms, so its field combat capability was very fierce and it could often fight against Japanese troops that were several times larger than its own.

In this national war, the military strength of both sides increased by a hundred times. In other words, the Ming army had 260 million cavalry and 130 million infantry, and another 50 infantry might enter the battlefield later.

The Japanese army had nine corps, with Konishi Yukinaga, Kato Kiyomasa, Kuroda Nagamasa, Shimazu Yoshihiro, Fukushima Masanori, Kobayakawa Takakage, Mori Terumoto, Ukita Hideie, and Hashiba Hidekatsu, with numbers ranging from 11000 to 30000. In addition, Kuki Yoshitaka led 8750 naval forces and 87.5 ships for transporting soldiers and naval battles, which can be regarded as the tenth corps. The strength of the army increased a hundredfold, with each corps ranging from 300 to million, which was truly a human wave tactic.

However, Li Qian does not need to have the ability to compete with an entire legion alone. Li Qian only needs to follow the rhythm of the Ming army to attack. There are also many Chinese players participating in the national war who will send troops.

Li Qian ordered Feng Changqing to make a sand table based on the topographic map of the Korean Peninsula, and then summoned generals and strategists such as Li Xiuning, Gao Xianzhi, Wei Rui, Chen Qingzhi, and Du Ruhui to repeatedly deduce and write down the topography.

Knowing yourself and knowing your enemy can help you win a hundred battles.

During the month of preparation for the national war, teams of high-level soldiers came out of the barracks, including the Anxi Army, the Tang Dynasty Modao Army, the Women's Army...

As for the troops that have already been recruited, train them every day and try to improve their levels.

Each lord is preparing for the national war.

From Yunzhong in the north to Liaodong in the east, from Qiuci in the west to Lingnan in the south, lord players in all states and counties who are eligible to participate in the national war are preparing for war.

Time passed day by day, and the day of national war finally approached.

On the day of the national war, the troops of Tiance Town assembled on the parade ground. Five thousand elite soldiers were arranged in neat rows, with their weapons and spears, and their spirits were as fierce as tigers.

其中,400名玄甲军、500名北军五校、500名娘子军、200名白袍军、300名大唐陌刀军、700名安西军、150名宫廷乐师……

Because all the powerful lord players in the East Han area are participating in the national war, and there is the Luoshui Oath, even if Li Qian leads 5000 elite troops away, he does not have to worry about anyone daring to attack Tiance Town.

In addition, there are generals such as Huang Zhong, Huang Wudie, Deng Zhi, and Wen Tianxiang staying in Tiance Town, so there is no need to worry about being attacked by bandits or remnants of the Yellow Turban Army.

Huang Zhong and Huang Wudie cannot participate in the national war because they have not yet pledged allegiance to Li Qian.

There were seven first-rate generals accompanying Li Qian this time, Chen Qingzhi, Wei Rui, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, Gao Xianzhi, Li Xiuning, and Li Siye. There were five second-rate generals, Wei Yan, Cheng Yaojin, Deng Zilong, Zhai Changsun, and Feng Changqing. There were three third-rate generals, Zhang Dachuan, Fu Zhuo, and Gao Xiang. A total of fifteen generals.

Du Ruhui was appointed as military advisor.

With the intelligence of Chen Qingzhi, Wei Rui and Feng Changqing, they can also serve as military advisors.

Many Confucian generals do not need military advisors, they are their own military advisors, such as Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu, Lu Su, etc. "I wonder what kind of powerful enemy we will encounter this time?"

Li Qian, wearing black armor and holding a fire dragon spear, is full of anticipation for the national war.

The rank of the generals in each civilization camp is determined according to the internal ranking.

For example, in the four islands of Japan, Himiko, the queen of Yamatai, was a top-notch general, "Onmyoji" Abe Haruaki was a top-notch strategist, while generals such as Sanada Yukimura and Shimazu Yoshihiro were first-rate generals, and some less famous generals were second- and third-rate generals.

Therefore, this national war is full of confrontation and the outcome is unpredictable.

In Liangzhou, Liangzhou Town, five thousand elite soldiers gathered, including the Western Liang Iron Cavalry, Tiger Pattern Armored Heavy Cavalry, and other heavy armored cavalry, their armor shining with a cold light.

In addition to the heavily armored cavalry, Liangzhou Town also had infantry in strict formation, well-equipped and disciplined.

A taciturn general stood in front of the battalion of soldiers. With his appearance, the eyes of the entire battalion were on him, as if waiting for his orders.

In Bingzhou, Emperor Yuan, the second-ranked lord player in the Eastern Han region, assembled his troops.

The vast majority of the 5,000 soldiers he brought were cavalry.

It costs less for Bingzhou players to obtain war horses.

The cavalry has strong field combat capabilities, but weak siege capabilities.

"I'll bet on a field battle and try to avoid sieges."

Emperor Yuan had his emphasis.

From the perspective of gaining more military merits, it is not necessary to bring all types of soldiers. It is also a strategy to only bring cavalry and leave the opportunity to gain military merits in field battles.

Alternatively, you can bring all infantry or all archers, there is no problem.

Jiangdong, Shitou Town, Jiangzuo Meilang stood on the top of the city, looking at the warships anchored by the river, and muttered to himself: "I wonder if there will be a chance for a naval battle in the national war? If there is a naval battle like the Battle of Myeongnyang or the Battle of Noryang, then I can lead a team of navy there..."

Qingzhou, Qingzhou Town, the Qing Emperor looked at the large number of Qingzhou soldiers and couldn't help feeling worried.

During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, she subdued 300,000 Qingzhou Yellow Turban troops, removed the old, weak, sick and disabled, and selected 100,000 Qingzhou soldiers from them.

However, in a national war, a maximum of 5000 soldiers can be brought.

The Qingzhou soldiers are numerous but not elite, and the combat effectiveness of the 5,000 Qingzhou soldiers is also very ordinary.

"Fortunately, I have a way to recruit soldiers for the national war..."

The Qing Emperor only brought a small number of Qingzhou soldiers, but he recruited a lot of Yellow Turban warriors...

Lord players such as Xuanyuan, Tongpao with You, The Greatest Emperor, Never Leave Shu, and Gaoliang River Chariot God have all gathered in the parade grounds of their respective territories.

"Countdown, ten, nine, eight, seven... three, two, one."

"The national war has begun. All players who have signed up for the national war will be teleported to the 'Imjin Japanese Rebellion' battlefield."

Beams of light rose up on the Eastern Han continent, and the 110,000 Eastern Han players who signed up for the national war and the soldiers they brought were teleported to the national war battlefield!
