Since Jiang Zhi's flag was hanging, Jiang Feng couldn't say anything else. After all, he was already giving him a lot of face.
But after they finished fighting, they pocketed all the resources and asked for additional resources. Their reasons are also very good. They came all the way to help in the war, and the food, clothing, and military pay should be provided by Jiang Zhi's forces.
Su Kouye almost went crazy at that time, but Jiang Feng agreed to all their requests in order to quickly unify the Northern Province.
Later, the main city of Chuge fell and a dark crisis broke out. In order to quickly put out the crisis, Jiang Feng asked the major allied forces to come for help. They did come, and their participation was very active, but afterwards, the Keduin Army asked Jiang Feng to hand over Yunlan City and the major affiliated towns to them. Of course, it's just a temporary loan, because they need a base, after all, they will be stationed for a long time in the future.
Of course Jiang Feng disagreed. The city in the northern province was flying Jiang's flag. How could he hand over the control of the city to them.
Dole, the commander-in-chief of the Keduin Army, actually scolded Jiang Feng rudely, saying that Jiang Feng was ungrateful and did not even give him a few cities. They also mobilized public opinion and complained to other allied forces. They also said that they did not want to occupy the city, but just needed a base camp to stay temporarily. Furthermore, with so many cities on the northern front, most of them are empty cities. Jiang Zhi's forces do not have the extra troops to station troops in each city. This is a huge waste.
Jiang Feng didn't want to make things too difficult, so he had no choice but to agree to temporarily lend Yunlan City and the surrounding small towns to them. However, there is a condition. They are responsible for building the city wall on the northern line of Yunlan City, and Jiang Zhi's forces will produce black iron water.
Dole actually agreed immediately and carefully determined the length of the city wall with Jiang Feng.
Of course Jiang Feng knew that Mikasa wanted to take this opportunity to establish a base in the Northern Province and gradually penetrate it. Due to the alliance relationship, everyone has the same strategic goal, so no one will quarrel with each other, but they are also wary of each other.
In addition to Mikasa, the Menes Empire certainly has a purpose.
The number of U.S. troops assisting Jiang Feng this time is about 100,000, not too many, not too few. In addition, the US military also provided some ore assistance. However, they do not intend to contribute to building the Great Wall, but will only provide some help. However, they also asked to borrow several small towns, and their attitude was very tactful.
Since Jiang Feng agreed to Dole, there was no reason to reject the US military. In the end, Jiang Feng lent them all the small cities closer to the border of Beiming. Of course, there is a condition for this. At that time, Jiang Zhi's forces will provide manpower to build the Great Wall in the border area, and the US military will be responsible for their personal safety. If something happens, they will have to pay corresponding compensation.
As for Wei Chi, this guy seems to be the most honest. He didn't ask to borrow the city, nor did he ask for anything in return. This time, he assisted Jiang Feng with about 50,000 troops. They basically served as assistants and did not charge on the front line. They would occasionally attack small towns with other allied forces.
Wei Chi's attitude was very conservative. He didn't want to get involved in the Great Wall matter at all. In other words, he just wanted to protect himself. Because the Ghost Clan is in Beiming and Wei Chi is in Nanman, separated by Hedong and Xichuan. In this day and age, Wei Chi is very safe. However, in order to maintain the relationship with Jiang Feng, Wei Chi sent 50,000 troops free of charge to assist Jiang Feng.
Then there is Jue Cheng, who is the leader of the Crusaders and controls the entire Crusade. Although Jiang Feng and Juecheng had reached a consensus before that Jiang Feng could dispatch the Crusaders, basically every time he dispatched troops and generals, he needed to discuss with Juecheng. On the one hand, Juecheng said that he didn't care much about the Crusade, and it was only because of Mr. Kong that he formed it. But on the other hand, Juecheng was not sure about handing over the Crusaders completely to Jiang Feng. Even if it was troublesome to discuss it every time, it still had to be discussed. If there is no discussion, Juecheng will refuse to send troops. To put it bluntly, Jue Cheng is an inner conflict. On the one hand, he thought about going to the underground world in the future, and he probably wouldn't come to the surface soon. But on the other hand, he still couldn't bear to part with his Crusaders. After all, he founded them all by himself. It would be a lie to say that he had no feelings for his subordinates.
In other words, Juecheng is happy to help. But if you go all out, Juecheng will definitely not be happy.
As for Xia Long, he controlled the Cross Chamber of Commerce after it fell apart. Because many leaders were either dead or became rebels, Xia Long also indirectly controlled about twenty secret warehouses. Among so many allies, only Xia Long is the most reliable. Of course, this is also thanks to Su Kouye.
But the Cross Chamber of Commerce has fallen apart after all, and its overall strength has declined greatly. Most of them are believers, and there are not many apostles and servants who can fight. This time, Xia Long only brought 100,000 combatants to help Jiang Feng attack Chu Ge's forces. Although the number is not large, it is already the force he tried to squeeze out.
The last thing I want to talk about is Bane. Needless to say, he represents the Gray Tribe.
The population of the Gray Tribe has dropped sharply after the previous war, but looking at the entire Yanhuang, the Gray Tribe still has the largest population. The total population of the Gray tribe in the land of Xichuan is still tens of millions, so this time to help, Bain brought millions of troops.
This troop strength is scary to say the least, but when put on the battlefield, they are just cannon fodder. Because the Gray Tribe is notoriously poor, they are extremely poor, so these millions of troops have no armor at all.
What Bain said is very nice. He can deploy his millions of troops at will, even if he is the vanguard, it doesn't matter.
Of course, these words are just polite words. It is impossible for Jiang Feng to really let unarmored soldiers be the vanguard. If he said that, he would be ridiculed by everyone in the world. The current battlefield is basically people-oriented and try not to make meaningless sacrifices. On the battlefield, you basically need armor, unless you really don't have armor.
But Jiang Zhi's power was so huge that he even had black iron water to build the Great Wall. How could he not have armor? If you tell me, who will believe it?
But arming these millions of troops? Is it realistic? Jiang Feng didn't want to be taken advantage of.
Therefore, Jiang Feng decided not to let these million troops go to the front line, but to be mainly responsible for the supply of materials and providing support. However, in order to better display their value, Jiang Feng selected 100,000 warriors with a strength of over 50 from a million troops, and paid for each of them to be equipped with a set of D-level armor.
D-level armor is not valuable. The durability of a set of C-level armor is 10 times that of D-level armor. But even so, D-level armor can barely go on the battlefield, especially in the meat game. It has a very good effect of delaying time for the main force.
After the dark crisis in Laizhou was resolved, Bain asked to restore the armor durability of the 100,000 troops. To put it bluntly, he wanted to re-equip them with armor.
It stands to reason that the Northern Province has been unified, and as long as the relationship with Feng Du is properly handled, there will be no war for the time being. To a certain extent, there is no need to equip those 100,000 people with any armor now. Although it is only D-level armor, with 100,000 troops, a small amount adds up to a large amount. This is also a big deal.
But Bain was very nice. He said that these 100,000 people were not afraid of sacrifice on the battlefield and made great contributions to the unification of the Northern Province by Jiang Zhi's forces. They didn't have any more requirements, they just wanted a new set of armor. The old armor can be sent to the arsenal to be melted down again, and a lot of black iron can be recovered. Furthermore, whether it is these 100,000 people or the auxiliary 900,000 people, they have not left the Northern Province now, but are still staying here, obeying the orders of Jiang Zhi's forces.
Bain's words were full of sincerity, and Jiang Feng simply couldn't refuse, otherwise he would surely chill the hearts of other allies. After all, they have traveled thousands of miles to help you, so such a request is not too much.
In desperation, Jiang Feng agreed to provide them with new armors, but in terms of time, there was no need to be too hasty. They could ration them in five batches, and all of them would be replaced with new armors within a month at the latest.
Bain is still relatively easy to talk to, so he didn't put forward any further opinions.
All in all, all in all, the Allied forces came to help, either by borrowing cities or armor, and then they said they would obey the arrangements of Jiang Zhi's forces, but they often had to negotiate for a long time after giving an order, and they were not as high-level as their own troops. efficiency.
With such an allied force, would Jiang Feng dare to launch a decisive battle against Feng Du? At that time, it will basically be Jiang Feng's own soldiers who are fighting tooth and nail.
So, under what circumstances will these Allied forces really work hard? Unless Cangzhou is gone, Northern Province is annexed by Feng Du, or when Jiang Zhi's power is in danger, those allies will really fight for their lives.
To put it bluntly, the bosses of each force are not fools. They are all analyzing the situation and trying to achieve a balanced relationship. Just like Mikasa, she has been busy developing a scientific research team recently. Just studying the large warships of the Menes Empire is already a pleasure. He seemed to have forgotten the tension he felt before, and the threat from the Dark Tribe was becoming less and less intense.
The changes between the second universe and the first universe are indeed great. The importance of technology has gradually increased. Even Mikasa has realized the charm of technology.
Su Kouye and Xia Long chatted for a very long time, and several hours passed in one go.
After Xia Long learned about the situation of Jiang Zhi's forces, he finally understood Jiang Feng's difficulties. Many things are not as simple as they seem.
"Don't worry, they are not serious. I, Xia Long, am serious. I regard you as my adopted brother and Jiang Feng as my ally."
"Brother, I can understand what you mean, but I think the Cross Chamber of Commerce should make more contacts with Wangcheng and do more business there. It will definitely stimulate the economy and achieve a win-win situation."
"But after the last big change, we now have less and less business activities."
"Your foundation is still there. Go to the big cities and make more contacts. The cities in the northern province are of no use. They are vast and sparsely populated."
"That's okay. Who wouldn't be happy if we can make money? But there's no need to rush it. I'll first send a group of people to Wangcheng to do business and do some charity and preaching."
"It's absolutely fine. It's right to come in batches. If they come all at once, it will have a huge impact on the economy and have the opposite effect."
"I still understand this. In short, we will cooperate well." Xia Long was very happy.
The Cross Chamber of Commerce has been in constant contact with Chang Chang, which has more advantages than disadvantages for the Cross Chamber of Commerce. Xia Long was also very moved and regarded Su Kouye as a true brother. But he didn't know Su Kouye's true plan. He actually planned to assimilate the Cross Chamber of Commerce so that members of the chamber of commerce would be unable to leave Wangcheng in the future. After all, you can make money by staying in Wangcheng. This is Su Kouye's economic control method.
Xia Long actually understands the economic control law. If he didn't know how to do business, he wouldn't be able to achieve the position of president of the branch. However, even if he knew it, Xia Long still urgently needed to accumulate wealth through business. The foundation of the Cross Chamber of Commerce is indeed no longer as strong as before. The Chamber of Commerce cannot be destroyed in Xia Long's hands.
