362 BC, early summer.

In the south of the city, on the Wei army camp, 20,000 elite Wei Wushang stood quietly on the battlefield.

Although the military formation was solemn, the murderous aura that soared into the sky came to his face.

On the general's stage, Wei Ying carefully looked at the ace brigade under his command, from equipment to military appearance.

On the side, Pang Juan accompanied her respectfully.

Over the whole year, Pang Juan worked tirelessly to train the three armies and purified military discipline, and he lost a lot of weight.

Wei Ying also gave Pang Juan full trust.

Even though there were many nobles in the office and civil and military officials slandering Pang Juan in front of him, Wei Ying was not shaken at all.

And now, he finally reaped a lot of rewards.

The current Wei Wushu is still well-equipped, but his morale has made great progress.

In a vague way, Wei Ying seemed to see the invincible invincible army during the Wu Qi period again.

"Okay!" Wei Ying nodded with satisfaction and patted Pang Juan's shoulder affectionately: "The army is strict and has a high morale, much stronger than a year ago. I did not misunderstand me. Thank you for your hard work, Pang Aiqing."

"The Marquis of Wei has been awarded too much. If there is no Bole, how could there be a thousand-mile horse?" After years of restoration, Pang Juan is no longer as taciturn as he was when he was a child, but he is still cherishing his words as gold.

In Pang Juan's opinion, good men should be established by their merits and not be proud of their words.

"Haha..." Wei Ying couldn't help feeling quite satisfied when she heard this. People in the world said that he was crazy. If he actually appointed an eighteen-year-old general, he would definitely destroy the Wei army.

However, facts show that he is right, and the Wei army found an excellent commander and gained a new life.

In this world, only Wei Ying dares to use people in such a way.

This is the domineering and self-confidence of a generation of heroes.

"By the way, Pang Aiqing, can I take a look at the actual combat power of Wei Wuzhu now?" Wei Ying said with a smile.

After all, he is a great master of a generation. Wei Ying knows that military appearance and military discipline are just references. What really determines the strength of an army is the actual combat power.

Otherwise, no matter how good the military appearance and military discipline are, it will be just a beautiful ceremonial team, not a strong army.

"Okay!" Pang Juan did not refuse and immediately ordered: "The order: The entire Wei Wushang army was dispatched, and after rushing fifty miles, he would turn back and pick up the enemy."

"No." Immediately, a messenger stepped down and sent an order.

Soon, under the leadership of Baning, 20,000 Wei Wu soldiers drove out of the schoolyard in a mighty manner and ran away.

"Another order is sent: transfer 30,000 Cangtou troops to the school ground to set up defenses and prepare for real-time troops to fight."

"promise."

Immediately, another commissar was ordered to step down and rushed to the Cangtou Army camp.

"Woo--"

Soon, the sound of majestic horns resounded throughout the Cangtou Army camp, and a large number of soldiers quickly assembled to the schoolyard.

To determine whether the Wei Wushu was qualified, the Wei army had a mature system.

The standards are clear and very cruel:

Wearing three layers of leather armor, you must be able to drive a powerful crossbow of 300 kilograms, fifty arrows on your back, one long spear, a helmet and a sword on your head, and three days of food rations.

Such a full battle load will probably reach the modern standard of about 35 kilograms, which is very amazing!

Under such an amazing battle, you must go a hundred miles (about 30 kilometers) within half a day, and then immediately enter the battle and defeat the powerful enemy.

In this way, he is considered a qualified Wei Wuzhang soldier!

Such harsh combat literacy, even in modern times, can be regarded as an excellent special forces soldier, which is not something that ordinary soldiers can do.

From this we can imagine what a terrible army of Wei Wuzhang, all composed of such elite soldiers!

In the early Warring States Period, it was indeed not a lucky opportunity for Wei to dominate the world and be invincible.

"Marquis of Wei," Pang Juan said respectfully: "It's too early to fight in real soldiers. It's so hot now. Why don't we go to the coach's tent to rest first and come later?"

"No, I am not that arrogant." Wei Ying was very excited: "Pang Aiqing, just accompany me here to talk."

"Okay." Pang Juan was not good at flattering and nodded.

"By the way, Wei Aiqing, I wonder how the recruitment of the new group of Wei Wushou soldiers was?" Wei Ying asked with concern.

"When I returned to the Marquis of Wei, I ordered the whole country to screen the entire army. At present, 40,000 new recruits have been initially selected. Two or three years later, I am confident to return a 30,000 elite army of Wei Hou. In this way, I can replenish the number of Wei Wu soldiers of 50,000." Pang Juan said confidently.

"That's great." Wei Ying was overjoyed. He knew that it was difficult to train Wei Wushu.

Not only are the new soldiers carefully selected from the whole country and the entire army, but they also have to go through at least two to three years of hard and scientific training. It can be said that it is very difficult to create a Wei Wushu.

"But--" Pang Juan seemed a little hesitant.

"Pang Aiqing, just say something." Seeing that Pang Juan seemed to have something to hide, Wei Ying immediately comforted him.

"Yes, Wei Hou." Pang Juan said seriously: "Military law stipulates that every Wei Wushang will be granted 300 acres of fertile land as preferential treatment. The newly added 30,000 people will need 9 million acres of fertile land. Please prepare early so that the soldiers will have no worries at that time."

When Wei Ying heard this, she couldn't help frowning.

Yes, although Wei Wuzhang was powerful, he was also an army that needed huge financial resources to support.

During the Warring States Period, soldiers had no military pay.

To serve in the military is an obligation, and you even need to bring your own weapons, armor, and even food and grass. The compensation provided by the state is a certain amount of fertile land.

As the core of Wei's strong military power, Wei Wuzhang naturally had the highest treatment.

Every Wei Wushang will be granted 300 acres of fertile land.

So much land is enough to ensure the wealthy life of the Wei Wuzu family and bring their own excellent weapons.

After Wei Wuzhang died in battle or retired, these 300 acres will not be recovered.

Therefore, it can be said that the source of Wei Wuzhang's strong combat power is this fertile land of 300 acres per person.

Without these 300 acres of fertile land, the Wei Wushu would not have excellent equipment and high morale, and it would be even more impossible to die for the country without any worries. Then the Wei Wushu, who had strong combat power, would no longer exist.

Of course Wei Ying knew this.

However, it would be very difficult to take out nine million acres of fertile land at once, even if Wei was a superpower.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Wei State had a small population and actively expanded its territory, so the land was very abundant. Therefore, it was not difficult to establish the Wei Wushang in Wuqi.

However, with the long-term founding of the country, the population is increasing, and with land annexation, it is difficult for the country to produce so much fertile land.

Most of these nine million acres are probably required to be redeemed by the state.

This financial pressure is very terrifying.

In the past few years, Wei Ying has not been able to supplement Wei Wushu. On the one hand, it is because she does not have a suitable coach, and on the other hand, she cannot afford so much money.

However, in order to restore the former glory of Wei State, the arrogant Wei Ying also gritted her teeth: "Don't worry, Pang Aiqing, if I sell these nine million acres of fertile land, I will definitely prepare all the generals as soon as possible, even if I sell these nine million acres of fertile land, I will save money and save money, and I will definitely prepare all the generals as soon as possible."

Pang Juan was moved. He had been down the mountain for a year and had a very good understanding of the situation in Wei State. Of course, he knew how difficult it would be to prepare these nine million acres of fertile land.

Wei Ying's support for him was of course unreserved.

While moved, Pang Juan wanted to share some pressure for Wei Ying, and immediately made a suggestion: "Marty Wei, after a year of rectification, our army can be able to fight. If the king can trust it, I am willing to lead the army to fight and conquer cities and plunder land for our Wei Kingdom to solve the urgent problem."

Wei Ying's eyes lit up. It was indeed a good way to get rich overnight. She hurriedly said, "Does Pang Aiqing have a goal?"

"Yes." A ray of cold light flashed in Pang Juan's eyes: "In the past two years, Zhao State took advantage of my civil strife and invaded me. I want to use it to attack the two cities of Le people and Feiyi. First, the land around these two cities is fertile and rich in water, which can help temporary difficulties; second, these two cities are the southeast gateways of the Zhao capital Handan. Taking these two cities can not only teach Zhao a lesson, but also occupy favorable terrain and deter Zhao State."

"Okay!" Wei Ying slapped her thigh happily: "What Pang Aiqing said is very consistent with my heart." He hated: "The State of Zhao has never thought about the brotherhood of the Three Jins in the past two years, so it should teach these bastards a lesson."

"Then I will prepare first, and I will send troops when the king ordered it." Pang Juan was also very happy. After hiding for a year, it was finally time to try his skills.

"Report——" Suddenly, a red flag messenger rode his horse and rushed over: "Doway! Dodge! Emergency military information!"

Wei Ying and Pang Juan were both surprised: He Guo was invading?

"Hurry, let the messenger come." Wei Ying hurriedly signaled the guards not to stop them.

The messenger rushed to the stage in sweat, knelt down and panted, "Reported to the Marquis of Wei, Han and Zhao coalition forces 80,000 out of Pizhuo City, led by the famous general of Zhao Le Zuo, the troops headed directly to Anyi. The military situation is urgent, please order the order to be taken."

When Wei Ying heard this, she was furious: "Han, Zhao Yan dared to be so rude. Before I settled the score with them, I actually came to invade each other again. It's really a big bully!"

Pang Juan was also very unhappy. In his opinion, the State of Zhao, Han, was just provoking him naked, and couldn't help but say excitedly: "Marty Wei, please order the expedition to go to war. If you don't kill the two countries, you won't leave any armor and will not return to your army."

Wei Ying was a little hesitant. He trusted Pang Juan and saw Pang Juan's excellent military management ability, but this time it was a practical battle, no better than anything else. Moreover, Le Zuo was a famous general of Zhao State. He was a long-standing battle and was very difficult to deal with.

If Pang Juan loses, the Han and Zhao coalition forces may directly attack Anyi, which will be a big trouble.

"Pang Aiqing, don't worry, let me think about it before talking. Come and take the messenger down to have a good rest." Wei Ying said.

Pang Juan sighed slightly in his heart. He knew that Wei Ying had not completely trusted him.

I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to entrust his life and death battles like this that are related to the safety of Wei. He needs more efforts to prove himself.
