A Clash of Gods Chapter 278: Sophisticated calculations

All the ministers looked at each other and thought differently for a while, but no one was surprised, and did not expect Long Tai to come up with such an idea by surprise today.

The Black Scale Camp was naturally prestigious, and together with the Black Knives Camp were called the two strongest elites in Nan Chu.

There are not many troops in these two forces, but the combat effectiveness is the highest among all the soldiers and horses in Nan Chu. Whether it is equipment or the ability to fight alone, it is one of the best.

The prestige of an army is not screaming, but the baptism of countless blood and fire.

Today's Black Sword Camp was once full of blood and fire on the battlefield, and it made the name that makes people feel scared today, as did the Black Scale Battalion that was alongside it.

Many years ago, the Black Scale Camp battled with the Northern Han Blood Lan Army, and today and today, it will still be mentioned after tea and dinner. No one will talk about the war because of the annihilation of the whole army of the Black Scale Camp. Scale Camp has the slightest contempt, and besides sighing, it is most regrettable.

During that battle, although the Black Scale Camp was completely annihilated, the Nanchu people never felt that the Black Scale Camp was defeated.

The fame of the Northern Han Blood Blue Army was never under the Black Scale Camp at that time, and it is well known that the Blood Blue Army’s horses are actually better than the Black Scale Camp. The Northern Horse’s horses are stronger than the Nanchu, plus they The horses carefully trained for the Blood Blue Army have exceeded the speed and endurance of the Black Scale Camp.

That's it. In the end, the Black Scale Battalion was annihilated by the whole army. There were only dozens of people left, but the Blood Blue Army was not much better. Although the name of the Blood Blue Army was still retained, the blood The Lanjun never appeared on the battlefield, so the Nanchu people always felt that the Northern Han people kept the blood Lanjun flag just for the face. In fact, the blood Lanjun had already disappeared in that fight.

After that war, the Black Scale Camp ceased to exist. Although the court did not withdraw the Black Scale Camp’s designation, the dozens of people left by the Black Scale Camp were either in Duan Canghai and others to stay in Jinyihou Mansion When he was on duty, he was either sent to another army to serve as a general, and the Ministry of Labor and the Ministry of Labor no longer had to provide any money, food, military equipment and weapons to this once-infinite soldier. In fact, he had already waited if there were no Blackscale Battalions. .

The annihilation of the Black Scale Battalion is a great blow to Nan Chu. After all, the soldiers trained by Qi Jing not only consumed Qi Jing’s countless energy, but also really consumed the court. Among the Qinhuai Legion, the Black Scale Battalion is like a pearl in the crown of the Qinhuai Legion.

The shattering of such a pearl, although some people talked about it in private, but the court has not mentioned it since. After all, it is the scar of the empire. It is still uncomfortable to mention this past.

In fact, the ministers present did not think that the court would prepare to rebuild the Blackscale Camp. At this time, Long Tai suddenly proposed that the ministers were very surprised.

After a while of silence, Qi Ning glanced at Longtai and found that although Longtai still looked very calm, there was a hint of tension in his eyes.

"Lu...Lu Xiao, you are a military assistant, how do you feel?" Longtai asked Lu Xiao after staring at Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao bowed and said: "Go back to the Holy Spirit, and you think...not possible!"

"Oh?" Long Tai clearly saw a trace of disappointment deep in his eyes, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, calmly asked, "Why not?"

"In the opinion of the minister, there are at least two reasons." Lu Xiaodao said: "First, the Black Scale Battalion battled with the Blood Blue Army that year, the whole army was annihilated, and only 58 people survived. The emperor wants to rebuild the Black Scale Camp, which has no foundation. In order to train the Black Scale Camp, the silver of the court flower was like running water. Whether it is equipment or horses, the Black Scale Camp The needs are the best. Other troops have three meals a day, but when they arrive at the Black Scale Camp, they have to serve five meals a day, and they are in charge of wine and meat.... There are a lot of other soldiers." Suddenly, said: "The emperor, the minister gave a simple example, saying that the black scale armor worn by the black scale battalion soldiers at that time was actively and harshly demanded, which not only required a lot of fine iron, but also needed Several kinds of concentrates are incorporated into it. When creating black scale armor, as long as there is a trace of flaws, it must be discarded and rebuilt. A set of black scale armor can be built to create other soldiers. I want to see how much silver is needed to rebuild the Blackscale Camp."

Long Tai frowned slightly, and Lu Xiao saw this, and continued: "The Black Scale Battalion charged into battle on the battlefield. It was indeed admirable for its repeated achievements, but it is also for this reason. If it is damaged, it must be replenished every year. The money spent on this is a very heavy burden for the court."

"I want to win the battle without loss, Master Lu, how can there be such a perfect thing in this world." Qi Ning couldn't help it.

Lu Xiao did not argue, but laughed instead: "Jin Yihou was born in the Hou Mansion, has not been on the battlefield, and has never been worried about Yinzi. When it comes to Yinzi's suffering, Master Dou should have the most experience. "

Dou Kui sighed at the right time: "Emperor, Lord Lu is right. The money spent on raising the Black Scale Camp at that time made the households have a headache. At that time, they were crowded, and they could still support it. Go on, but nowadays..." said with a wry smile: "Emperor, the battle of Qinhuai has just ended, and countless people who have suffered from the war are still poorly clothed and food. In the past few years, most of the money in the treasury has been used. On top of the battle on the front line, it is now necessary to spend a large amount of money to resettle the refugees. If the Black Scale Camp is rebuilt at this time, the Hube side will be afraid that they will not be able to get the money."

Long Tai’s delicate face was slightly irritated, saying: "The Black Scale Battalion can't be prepared by thousands of people. Even if it costs some silver, can't I even get this silver?"

Dou Kui was dissatisfied with Longtai's tone, so he dared not speak, but bowed his head.

Long Tai saw Dou Kui not speaking, glanced at Zhongyi Hou and asked: "Zhongyi Hou, do you also think it is not suitable for rebuilding the Black Scale Camp at this time?"

Zhongyi Hou Dao: "In returning to the holy saint, the old officials thought that after the battle of Qinhuai, it was a good time to rebuild the black scale camp."

Long Tai’s eyes were bright, and he said, "Why did Zhongyi Hou say so?"

"Emperor, the battle of Qinhuai took several years, and the soldiers of the enemy and our country are already exhausted." Zhongyi Hou's voice was low and slow, and it seemed that every word was spit out after careful consideration: "Whether it is the Northern Han Dynasty It’s still me, the morale is very low.”

Longtai nodded slightly, but Qi Ning also felt that Sima Lan’s remarks were true. After several years of fighting, the frontline soldiers were exhausted. Coupled with the continuous death of Qi Jing and the first emperor, it cannot be said that it is not continuous for the entire Chu Kingdom. The blow, the frontline soldiers must be low morale.

"The old minister has been thinking about how to improve the morale of the front-line soldiers." Sima Landao said: "The old minister is chaotic, and he has not come up with a good way, but the emperor today awakened the dreamer, the old minister thought, rebuild the black scale camp , Is the best way to improve the morale of my Chu army."

"Oh?"

Sima Lan smiled a little: "As everyone knows, if the Qinhuai Army was a war knife, then the Black Scale Camp was the blade of this knife, and if there was a blade, it would be sharp. If the Black Scale Camp was rebuilt at this time , The soldiers in front know that morale must be boosted, and they can also let them know that the court attaches importance to the army."

Long Tai smiled and said: "I just wanted to fulfill the wishes of the first emperor, but I did not think of this level. Zhongyi Hou Lao Chengqiu country, can think of this level, it is indeed a bureaucrat. Yes, once the black scale camp is rebuilt I, a general of the Chu army, must have a strong morale." Turning to King Huainan, he asked, "Does King Huainan think so?"

Many of the ministers present were thinking that the Huainan Wang must have a **** battle with the Zhongyi Hou. The Zhongyi Hou advocated the reconstruction of the Black Scale Camp, which would of course not benefit the Huainan Wang.

Knowing that King Huainan smiled, he nodded and said: "The old Houyi Zhongyi said very much that now my Dachu is about to boost the morale of the army. Rebuilding the black scale camp can not only inspire the morale of my army, It can also let the Northern Han people know my Dachu’s military prestige. At that time, the Blood Lan Army was stagnant, and until now it has not appeared in Xinjiang, but my Dachu rebuilding the black scale camp, and one day they will appear in the eyes of the Northern Han people, and they will let their souls fly away."

Long Tai originally thought that Huainan King would find an excuse to object, but he didn’t want him but agreed so easily, surprisingly: "King Huainan, do you also agree to rebuild the Blackscale Camp?"

"Although it takes some silver to rebuild the Black Scale Camp, the value of this silver flower can not only inspire the morale of our military, but also attack the Northern Han people." Huainan King smiled and said: "This is also the wish of the first emperor, When I waited to be a courtier, I naturally wanted to help the emperor fulfill the wish of the first emperor." After looking at Dou Kui, he smiled and said: "Sir Dou, this is a big deal. Although your household is tight, these things are still crowded. Get some money out."

Dou Kui immediately said: "Since it is a major event that favors the military, even if the minister smashes the pot and sells iron, he must squeeze silver from the teeth."

Long Tai is the first time he is ready to do something after he ascended the throne. I thought it would not be too smooth. I didn’t want Zhongyi Hou and Huainan King to agree, and I was a little excited. With one heart, nothing can't be done. Qi Ning, I............"

He was not finished yet, but Zhongyi Hou suddenly said: "Emperor~IndoMTL.com~The old minister has something to do!" Actually interrupted Long Tai's words.

Long Tai was stunned and asked, "Zhongyihou, what are your concerns?"

"Emperor, the old minister has no worries." Sima Lan said slowly: "It is only to rebuild the Black Scale Camp. The candidates for this Black Scale Camp must be carefully considered."

"Ah?" Long Tai knew immediately that something was wrong and frowned: "I have considered that Qi Ning is the most suitable candidate for the Black Scale Camp."

Sima Lan shook his head and said: "The old minister thought that Jin Yihou was not suitable to be the leader of the Black Scale Camp."

"But... but the Black Scale Camp was commanded by General Qi." Long Tai felt a deep heart, and immediately felt that he was likely to fall into the trap of the old fox, "Qining inherited the marquis of Jinyi , And heir to General Qi, is he the best candidate to command Blackscale Camp?"

"The emperor, the officials thought that what the old Hou Ye said was very true." The king of Huainan said slowly: "Little Hou Ye is not General Qi, General Qi will follow the old man Yi Jin in the battlefield as a teenager At the age of thirteen, he had already made his first contribution on the battlefield, and that was from the experience of blood and fire, so he could train the elite of the Black Scale Camp." After looking at Qi Ning, I saw Qi Ning seemed very calm and said with a smile: "Jin Yihou, this king is not saying that you are not, but it is a military event, not a child's play, and the Black Scale Camp is my Chu Jun's face. It must not be sloppy."

Qing Ning also understood at this time that Longtai was going to rebuild the Blackscale Camp and let him serve as the leader of the Blackscale Camp. It was nothing more than cultivating his own lineage, but the two old foxes were quiet, but made Longtai's original plan fast There was a huge deviation. He knew that at this time, he had to keep calm and smile a little, saying: "Yong Ye said that Qi Ning is still young and has too little experience, so he really needs to consider more."
