I Became the Crown Prince of a Ruined Country

92 – Combined Forces

Finally, everyone gathered to attend the joint military meeting.

General of the Wei Dynasty, Shin Won-yeon.

Jo Nara’s general, Bangnan.

Hang Yan, general of Chu.

General of the Yan Dynasty, Geuksin.

Prince Yan, I.

And the commander-in-chief of this joint army and the Wei Mugi of the Wei Dynasty’s Princess Shinling.

The first thing that was mentioned in the meeting of 6 people was the size of the Qin army and the joint army, and the size of the forces on both sides.

It may be that the war is taking place in his front yard, but Shin Leung-gun did not step forward and a brief report was made on the Shin Won-yeon line.

“Let’s go over the composition of the current joint force first.”

Shin Won-yeon placed four pieces on top of the military map in the center of the conference room, where the words “Geup (汲)” And “Gong (共)” Were written.

“First of all, the country of Wei mobilized 70,000 troops.”

70,000.

At that level, it was no exaggeration to say that even Weinara had squeezed out the maximum amount she could send out.

If we gathered all the troops in the country of Wei, it would be over 100,000, but it is obviously impossible for the country of Wei to project all of its forces only on the battlefield here.

Qin may attack the capital of Wei through Heo, south of the Yellow River, so we must have an army to protect Daeyang, and we must also deploy troops on the border with Qi, which is on the side of Qin.

Moreover, domestic security cannot be completely neglected. Excluding the 30,000 troops, the rest was collected and put into operation.

“Next, Chu sent 40,000 reinforcements.”

“Hmm.”

Hang Yan crossed his arms and let out his snort.

They say that the Cho Dynasty is the second largest country after the Qin Dynasty, but it is a bit disappointing that there are only 40,000 people… For a while, there were circumstances that could not be helped in the country of Chu.

“It has been detected that Qi is advancing troops to the border area with Chu. We also need to pay attention to the Qin people in Pachok.”

In this war, the Qin Dynasty poured an enormous force of 400,000, but they still had potential.

It was Pachok (巴蜀), the breadbasket of the Qin Dynasty and bordering the Chu Dynasty.

As time goes by and around the time of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Pachok is tied to the name of Ikju, but originally, Pachok was a term used to refer to two separate countries, Panara and Shuna.

The conquest of Pachok by the Qin Dynasty took place about 40 years ago.

Before the appearance of the white flag, Sima Chak (司馬錯), who was called the best general of the Qin Dynasty, led an army of 100,000 and destroyed the Pa and Shu, and the Qin Dynasty flew higher with a pair of wings, the Pa and Shu.

Sima Chak did not stop there and defeated the Wei and Chu states one after another and took their territories. There was a rebellion by Pachok, but Samachak didn’t even bother.

Eventually, Pachok was completely subjugated to the Qin Dynasty and became an outpost to attack the Chu Dynasty.

Pachok was playing that role well this time as well.

There is a rugged Jinling Mountain Range between the mainland of Qin and Pachok, so it is too inefficient to bring Pachok’s soldiers.

It was easy to understand when I thought of how hard Zhuge Liang went through during the Northern Expedition in the Three Kingdoms. It was such a tough road even after hundreds of years, but moving tens of thousands of soldiers across the Jinryeong Mountains now was an act that made my belly button bigger than my stomach.

Therefore, instead of sending Pachok’s troops directly to this war, the Qin Dynasty used them to hold back the most burdensome opponent, the Chu Dynasty.

‘Then the Qin Dynasty can mobilize more troops than 400,000?’

The more you know, the more you know, the Qin Dynasty was a country with no end in sight.

Sama Chak, Baekgi, Gyu, Mong-oh, Wang-heul, and even the King of Gijeonpamok that will appear in the future.

Even Zhao Nara is famous for being a master craftsman, but if you add Qin Nara, it’s not that bad.

Since Sima Chak, great generals have appeared in rows for nearly 40 years and literally trampled the nations, and there will be great generals who will dominate the world for another 40 years, including Jang Han, who is called the last great general of the Qin Dynasty.

It could be seen that the genealogy of great generals continued throughout the first century of Geojin.

The most extensive territory among the Chilwoong. Materials pouring from fertile spectators and pachoks. A population that does not suffer from massacres and has no shortage. And even the outstanding Su-Jin Jang who can destroy a country.’

Jin Dynasty was a country that had all the requirements for unification, as if heaven favored it.

However, the power still remained in the nations.

If you still gather the strength of all the nations except the Qin Dynasty, you will gather a lot more troops.

According to an estimate derived from collecting information from all countries while operating the Movie Group and sharing opinions with various people, it was about 1.5 Times more than the power advantage of the countries.

On the other hand, it also meant that the Qin Dynasty alone had a national power that was 2/3 of that of all other countries combined.

In the Qin Dynasty, the difference in power must be grasped in more detail than I have approximated. They will not yet think that they can defeat all nations single-handedly. So they took over my country.

‘Maybe the Qin Dynasty made the calculation that if it were the 5 countries excluding Qi, it could handle it alone?’

Suddenly, I remembered what Shin Leung-kun had told me before.

‘The Qin Dynasty is a more fearsome enemy than Young master imagined.’

An opponent that even Shin Leung-kun can’t completely shake off his fear.

That was the Qin Dynasty.

‘It’s far away.’

How much stronger would the Qin Dynasty become when Youngzheng ascended to the throne later?

Will I be able to stop an empire that subdues nations with a sword and flutters the flag of Qin under a hot spring?

Even while I was feeling that kind of skepticism, Shin Won-yeon’s explanation continued.

“From Zhao Nara, 50,000 troops joined. It is very encouraging that 20,000 of them are cavalry.”

“Whoops, since the reign of King Muryeong, our country’s cavalry has never descended from the best in the world. In this war, our country’s cavalry will surely be the key to breaking through difficulties.”

Bangnan showed off his pride for being a cavalryman in the country of Cho.

The reputation of the Knights of Armor, created through King Muryeong Jo’s military reform, made even the extremely famous and the anti-Yeon nod their heads without saying anything.

“Lastly, it’s Yan. Like Chu, Yan sent 40,000 reinforcements.”

Bang Nan interrupted Shin Won-yeon’s words.

“However, the Yan Dynasty was defeated by our Zhao Army with five times the number of troops. Will it really help?”

Bangnan’s provocation was immediately met with the extreme god.

“That’s right, Yeompa was the commander of Jogun, and Yulbok was the commander of Yeongun. If it were me and you, Jonara would have perished long ago.

“That sounds funny. If Geuk-ga was you, our ancestors would have surrounded Ji, not the Xiongnu.”

I wondered if I should take Geukshin’s side at Bangnan’s words demeaning the Yan nation.

Recalling the neutrality that Shin Leung-gun said a while ago, I mediated between the two.

“Both of you, take care of yourself. A war caused by misunderstandings ended without much bloodshed. Why are you doing this?”

“He showed ugliness.”

As soon as the Geuk God quickly agreed to my words and walked away, Bangnan narrowed his eyes and looked at such a Geuk God as if it were strange, then slightly bowed his head towards me.

“Hmm, I’m sorry for the comment that disrespects Yan.”

“All right. Let’s focus on the meeting now. General Shinwon, let’s continue the meeting.”

Shin Won-yeon greeted me with a bow and then spoke again.

“So, the total of the combined forces is 200,000. Here, 90,000 of Joe and Yeon are deployed in the first class, and 110,000 of the first and second are deployed in the ball. On the other hand…”

Shin Won-yeon, who stopped talking for a moment, began to place black pieces on the military map, on the other side of the joint army’s horse on the grade and ball.

At the place where the horses were placed, the word Sanyang was written. Unlike the joint army, which had a total of four pieces, the number of black pieces reached six.

“The scale of the march is about 300,000. They captured Sanyang and made it their garrison.”

Sanyang was a fairly large castle.

Excluding small castles that are not even called prefectures, they were in the upper ranks when the sizes of castles were divided into small, medium, large, and extra large.

From noble mtl dot com

Tukdae is one of the largest cities in the world, such as Handan, Hamyang, and Imchi, and the capital of nations.

You can get a sense of the size of the mountain goat considering that the city or the old capital, which is the center of a county, is included.

“Then, are there two castles that the Qin army has captured now, Godo and Sanyang?”

Shin Won-yeon shook her head at Geukshin’s question and moved two black horses with “Qin” Written on them.

“No. The main army led by Mong-wu is in Sanyang, but it is said that two vanguard armies are heading to Mo and Zhou respectively. Each has 50,000 troops and is commanding them. Qin Zhang was identified as Zhang Tang (張唐) and Pyo Gong (麃公).”

Contrary to my surprise at the unstoppable advance even with a large army of 300,000, the generals paid attention not to the speed of their advance, but to the enemy commander leading the army.

“Jangdang and Pyo Gong.”

“You certainly put a lot of effort into the Qin Dynasty.”

“If that’s the case, you can’t be the opponent of our Chogun.”

Women and girls, prior to adoption. Compared to Mong-oh, who had been active since the time Beom-su was in the upper reaches of the Qin Dynasty, they were also quite famous generals, even though they were inferior in rank.

In particular, the generals of the combined forces gathered here are literally the generals representing the country. No one was frightened by the names Pyo-gong and Jang-dang.

“Currently, the defense line of the joint army is the level and the air here, and the rear song in case of emergency. Mo and I must assume that we will be captured by the Jin army.”

Shin Won-yeon placed a black horse on Mowa and made the capture a foregone fact.

“Mong-oh, who was said to be in Sanyang, must have marched out by now, so they will approach this place as they are. So I make a recommendation to the generals and musketeers gathered here. Why don’t we fight them thoroughly and wait for them to tire out?”

Shin Leung-gun’s mouth opened for the first time since the meeting began in earnest at Shin Won-yeon’s suggestion.

“Impossible.”
