Chapter 156 Gathering
Sun Ming ordered the army to assemble. Originally, Chaoge had only 50 troops, and the rest were scattered all over the place. Now with an order, the three parties dispatched elite soldiers and began to gather towards Chaoge.

The military barracks in Chaoge City began to have troops coming in continuously. Sun Ming’s way of controlling the army was to take thousands of people as a unit and spread a large number of people within the rule of the Great Merchants, while Chaoge kept the largest number of troops of 50. It can effectively control all regions. At the same time, although there are a large number of troops outside, they cannot be unified, and there is no threat to Chaoge.

Although the gathering was a bit slow, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. Today, 50 troops need to be mobilized, all of which are dispatched from various places. At the same time, the local defense situation cannot be affected. The population of Dashang is already very large, and the specific number is difficult. Statistics, but Sun Ming did not have the slightest idea of ​​increasing the number of troops. After all, soldiers need a lot of training. At the same time, Sun Ming adopted professional army management, and every soldier was paid.

Such combat power is very powerful, but it also consumes a lot of money. At the same time, the weapons and equipment are the best and most advanced.

The princes usually don't raise too many soldiers. After all, they spend their own money to raise them. At the same time, the equipment and training are also uneven. It is not easy for Jiang Ziya to gather 70 troops, and improving the military equipment is even more expensive. They After all, there is not so much time to accumulate, and the overall level of the two sides is not at the same level. If there is a head-on confrontation, it will definitely depend on a battle.

In a whole month, the vanguard of the army was ready, Kong Xuanyu was ready to set off at Chaoge Ximen, and Sun Ming saw him off in person.

"The general must be careful when going here, survey the roads, set up camps, and make full preparations for the arrival of the army, but you must not pass Jinji Ridge." Sun Ming stared at Kong Xuan.

Jinji Ridge is not a pass, Kong Xuan used to be the commander-in-chief there, and after passing Jinji Ridge is Shouyang Mountain, and further west is Xiqi City, and Sun Ming chose this place to hoard his army, with his back against Sishui Pass and his front. To face Xiqi, it depends on whether the opponent dares to send troops to Shouyang Mountain.This place is very interesting. This is where Lao Tzu preached to the human race for the first time. Afterwards, the Sanqing sect accepted his disciple Xuandu and practiced here again. This is Lao Tzu's territory.

However, it's been too long, he hasn't been back for a long time, he has been cultivating in 33 days, the human religion he established is only him and his disciple Xuandu, and this place has been deserted for a long, long time.

Sun Ming didn't let Kong Xuan pass Shouyang Mountain because he had some considerations in this regard. He was not afraid of Lao Tzu, but he didn't want the Holy City to intervene in this war prematurely. The contradiction between the three Qings, and if the holy city intervenes too early, then the two from the west may not come to this muddy water.

Sun Ming didn't want to do that. He hoped that the two of them would come, and the debts would be collected together. Then they would definitely bleed. Otherwise, wouldn't he let them watch a good show by spending so much time and trouble?
"Yes, the last general must do his best." Kong Xuan got on his horse, and then the [-] vanguard army set off directly. Two thousand cavalry scouts, ten thousand civilian husbands.There were many horses and chariots in the team, and the road stretched for more than ten miles. However, the army was orderly and there was no chaos at all. It can be seen how the usual training is.

Sun Ming nodded, and then asked: "Grand Master, how long will it take for the rest of the army to be ready?"

"It will take more than half a month to report to the king." Grand Master Wen Zhong said.

An army of one million is not a small number. Although all members are present, the ownership, logistics, and transportation of each thousand-man team all need to be dispatched in a unified manner. Although there are rules and regulations, things are too complicated.

"Let Wucheng Wang Huang Feihu lead an army of 20 to go out five days later to support Kong Xuan's troops. Let's bring [-] cavalry to prevent any changes." Sun Ming thought for a while, and then decided.

"Yes, the old minister will do it right away." Grand Master Wen Zhong went to work again, while Sun Ming turned back to the palace. He wanted to accompany the Queen Mother as much as possible these few days, but it is not bad now. Compared with having a son and Accompanied by two daughters and three daughters-in-law, the Queen Mother will not be alone.

"My lord, are you really going to conquest yourself this time?" The Queen Mother asked her son as soon as she saw her.

"That's right, Queen Mother. This war is related to the rise and fall of our royal family. Naturally, my ministers will go to the battle in person. If we win the battle, we will lay the foundation for eternity. If we fail, then Queen Mother doesn't need to worry. Naturally someone will keep the pulse." What Sun Ming said was the truth, even if he failed, it would be a big deal to lose the country, but the probability of failure seems not very high.

At present, there are only seven saints. This is because I came to help Houtu become a saint. Otherwise, there are only six. Now one of them will definitely not fight against him, but he has to guard against it. When the time comes, he will adapt to the situation.

It is not known whether Nuwa will make a move. If she is smart, it is best to watch from the sidelines. Now she has no strength to compete for the luck of the human race, and what she keeps is already the limit. If she sells it again, the luck of the human race will also be lost. It has nothing to do with her.

For the remaining Sanqing and Xixi, if Sun Ming fights for Tongtian to come over, he will be invincible. When the Zhuxian Sword Formation comes out, if he stops the two at will, he will surely win the battle.

"With the current strength of Chaoge, do you still need yourself, the king, to go out in person?" The Queen Mother didn't know much, so naturally she didn't understand it very well.

"My queen, the unification of the great merchants is imminent. How can I not go at such a moment? The great achievements of the emperor are at this moment, and the sons are naturally not willing to lag behind, and none of those ministers would dare to make such a feat." Sun Ming can only make it up.

So the queen mother nodded, "That's right, go, go early and return early, the north and south roads can be calmed down, and now there is only one west, so it's no problem. Great cause of the emperor."

After chatting with the Queen Mother for a long time, after having dinner, he left with his three children, one queen, two concubines, and returned to his bedroom, where he set up some food again and chatted with his three wives.

"I don't know when I will return from this expedition. The queen in the harem has to worry about it." Sun Ming looked at Jiang Shi and said, no feelings, after all, he is a cultivator, but he has family ties.

"Please don't worry, Your Majesty, there are few people in this harem, and nothing will happen." Queen Jiang said, she is very satisfied with her current life. Your Majesty is diligent, but he will not be too busy with paperwork. After all, Sun Ming is Ascetics, seeing things is fast, and dealing with problems is not difficult.

"Okay, the two concubines also want to help the queen a lot. I am most worried about the queen mother. You need to go and chat with me for a long time. If you miss your family, you can also come in and have a sit. I have no objection to this." Sun Ming Explaining some trivial matters, it doesn't look like an emperor, but the head of the family.The emperor cared about the world, but the head of the family cared about his family, so the three wives were surprised, but they were full of joy.

Five days later, Wucheng King Huang Feihu set off for the expedition. After he set off this time, he would recruit the generals of the five gates at will, and leave the deputy generals to guard the five gates, so as to ensure that there are capable generals available ahead.

And the other general soldiers dispatched by Sun Mingzheng also arrived at Chaoge one after another. Everyone was gearing up and preparing for a big battle. Once they made military exploits in front of the king, they would surely rise to the top.

The preparations for the army's expedition were finally completed. Sun Ming took out a lot of things this time, a large robe with gold thread on a black background. Sheji.

Originally, as a Chinese, I heard that I was the descendant of the dragon since I was a child. This should be deeply ingrained, but after coming to the prehistoric world, dragons and everything are his descendants, and they are not of the same level at all. Sun Ming naturally did not have that idea Yes, but as an emperor, he has to take care of the whole world.

He thought so when he was refining this robe, and now it seems that he is right. He refined a lot of things back then, and this is one of them.Then there is a three-foot long sword, which is also an acquired spiritual treasure, and on the head is an emperor's crown, which is directly buckled on the top of the bun, and nine bead curtains hang down on the front and back.

These are the Shanhe Sheji Robe, the Pingtian Sword and the Nine Curtain Emperor Crown. These are the acquired merits and spiritual treasures refined by Sun Ming. Afterwards, he also brought the Wufang Seal. This time he is fully prepared, and he will definitely use martial arts in the battle. land.

The carriage frame is very large, with four wheels, and eighteen horse-drawn carriages. Sun Ming sat there. Shelter from wind and rain.

"My Majesty, the army is ready and ready to go at any time." Grand Master Wen Zhong rode Mo Qilin to the side of Sun Ming's carriage, clasped his fists and said.

"Okay, order the army to move out." Sun Ming didn't say anything, and now he doesn't need to fight anything, and we can talk about it after winning the battle.

The army marched out with great momentum, walked out of the barracks, and then walked out of the west gate along the main road in the city. It was only at noon that they all left the city. It stretched for tens of miles. Fortunately, Sun Ming had been building roads for many years, and the road to the west was smooth. And wide, although there are too many people in the army, the walking speed is not slow, and it can travel about eighty miles a day.

Kong Xuan set off early in the morning, he was a light car, he brought all the necessary supplies, and he acted very quickly, after leaving Sishui Pass, Jinji Ridge was in front of him, and Kong Xuan started to be careful when he got here.With Chaoge's army gathered, the other party must have found out the news, so now it is unknown whether Xiqi will take the initiative to attack Kong Xuan. Although he is powerful in Taoism, he has no idea of ​​using Taoism now. This is a war among mortals .
