Chapter 732 Landing on the Main Continent
Is about to land on the main continent, and after setting off from Yidao Naval Port, Qu Mao was full of emotions.
It is not the first time that Qu Mao has landed on the main continent. When he went to trade in Yancheng Port, Qu Mao has landed on the main mainland several times.
This time is obviously different from the past. In the past, they secretly came to the main mainland to purchase the necessary resources for the survival of the Yicheng territory in secret. This time, they led millions of troops to occupy the territory on the main mainland.
With the stretching effect of the Yicheng Territory and the upgrade of the lord's hut, the distance between the three newly manifested islands in the north of the Yicheng Territory is less than 250 kilometers from Yancheng Port.
In addition, Sylvia Ocean's level has improved a lot, and the warships have also changed, so the navy's navigation speed is getting faster and faster. The time from Yidao Naval Port to Yancheng Port has been shortened to about 6 hours. The army didn't even have 6 hours.
Although starting in the dark, Qu Mao naturally would not waste the time on the road in the cabin. Standing on the deck, blowing the sea breeze, waiting for the sun to jump out of the sea, overlooking the direction of Yancheng Port, Qu Mao was full of thoughts.
When Yicheng territory was still Yicun territory, very small and weak, Qu Mao, accompanied by Sunan, went to Yancheng Port for trade. He was cautious all the way and had to bribe the coastal defense battalion commander of Yancheng Port.
Even though he has been here twice, Qu Mao has been hiding and not being grand enough, but this time, Qu Mao has landed as the owner of Yancheng Port, so it feels naturally different.
Sylvia Ocean and Qu Mao were on the same warship, and Kong Ming was also with him. Although Qu Mao did not ask Kong Ming and Sylvia Ocean to accompany him to stand on the deck and enjoy the sea breeze, the two The hero did not leave Qu Mao even half a step away.
The warship rides the wind and waves on the sea, traveling very fast, chopping the waves along the way, which makes Qu Mao feel refreshed and happy. Originally, he just wanted to be a salted fish, but the bird man forced himself to fight, and if he didn't fight, he would die.
Since this is the case, then give him a good future.
For Su Yan and the Yicheng Territory Expeditionary Army who have been fighting for almost two months, Qu Mao and Kong Ming led the army to reinforce, which is an extremely morale-boosting thing. Su Yan is also the nominal heir of the Liusu Principality. The process of the King of the Wang Duchy's seizure of the throne was disgraceful. As long as the expeditionary army laid down a piece of territory, the residents of the territory would hardly need to spend much effort to recognize Su Yan's rule.
Su Yan is the daughter of the old king of the Liusu Principality, the princess who has the third line of succession, and is now the only bloodline of the old king of the Liusu Principality. Restoring the Liusu Principality is a matter of course for all residents in the Liuwang Principality.
All the residents of Liuwang Duchy never thought of Su Yan as an invader, on the contrary, they supported Su Yan's restoration of the country openly or secretly, especially after Su Yan continued to donate food to ordinary residents, the residents of Liuwang Duchy supported Su Yan reached unparalleled heights.
The residents of Liuwang Principality who are hungry will get food within a week after Su Yan occupies the land, so they are naturally grateful to Su Yan.
In the territory of Liuwang Principality that was not occupied by Su Yan, the ordinary residents were all looking forward to Su Yan's early recovery of their area.
At around 12:00 noon on March 15 in the fourth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao's flagship was successfully moored at the Yancheng Port Wharf. Soldiers from the Yicheng Territory Expeditionary Army had long been responsible for clearing the martial law.
But even so, there are still many residents on the street outside the Yancheng Port Wharf. They don’t know how they know that this is the arrival of Princess Su Yan’s reinforcements, so they hold flowers and wait to welcome the reinforcements to land.
Since the beginning of the war, Yancheng Port has been under military control, and there are very few merchant ships and civilian ships.
Including the soldiers parked at the Nancun Naval Military Base, I brought a total of 1.05 million reinforcements this time, of which the number of fourth-level fighters and higher-level fighters exceeded 250,000.
If you count the wealth of the high-level soldiers of the previous army, the number of high-level fighters invested by Yicheng Territory on the battlefield of Liuwang Principality should have exceeded 400,000, of which there are nearly 50,000 fifth-level fighters and higher-level fighters.
According to Qu Mao's understanding of the various forces on the mainland, even the Mughal Empire, which ranks first among the aboriginal forces, may not have such a large base of high-level fighters.
On the main continent, generally 10 cities with more than 100 million residents can become a Marquis. Of course, the Luanshan Marquis is a special case.
Three to five princes can form a principality, three to five principalities can form a kingdom, and three to five kingdoms can form an empire.
According to this calculation, a principality has about 300 million to 500 million people, a kingdom has about 1 billion to 3 billion people, and an empire can easily have tens of billions of people.
The size of the territory is of course different, and there will also be special cases of the extremely small land area of the Luanshan Hou Kingdom and the extremely large duchies of the Tassel Duchy.
According to the proportion of 10% of the population as soldiers, an empire should theoretically have about 1 billion regular troops, but obviously, it is unrealistic for an empire to raise 1 billion troops.
Now the territory of Yicheng is in Liuwang Principality, not counting Qu Mao’s reinforcements, at least 5 million troops, which is an extremely spectacular army size. After all, Liuwang Principality has too many regular troops and garrison troops who have surrendered to Su Yan.
The moment Qu Mao boarded the wharf of Yancheng Port, the residents of Yancheng on the street outside the wharf cheered, and the cheers of "Welcome to the landing of the Holy Lord" came one after another. Qu Mao was shocked by the title "Holy Lord".
Kong Ming saw Qu Mao cast a puzzled look over, and said, "My lord, Lord Su Yan is their Highness and their future king.
My lord, you are Su Yan's lord and Su Yan's lord, so it is reasonable for the residents of Liuwang Principality to call you this way, and your lord should not be surprised by the mere title of "Holy Master".
Holy Lord is considered a nobleman among nobles, a kind of respectful title above the king. "
Qu Mao suddenly realized, nodded, and said: "There is no need to engage in these formalistic things, and the army should not stay in Yancheng.
Notify the five high-level fighters to gather their respective troops as soon as possible, march to the target area quickly, and quickly achieve the combat goal.
The 800,000 troops should not enter Yancheng City, and gather troops outside Yancheng.
Once the troops are assembled, immediately move towards Prince Liu's King City, and join forces with Su Yan's troops as quickly as possible.
We are here for reinforcements. We cannot reinforce 1.05 million troops, and we still cannot take the remaining 1/4 of the land of the Liuwang Principality. "
Kong Ming said: "Yes, my lord, my subordinates will make arrangements. The army will not waste time in any territory that has already been taken. Please rest assured, my lord."
