"promise!"
Nodding in agreement, Li Xin turned and left.
They also knew to some extent how heavy the pressure was on Zhao Shu at this moment.
The southern part of Great Qin was all carried on Zhao Shu's shoulders.
Not only are there war issues, but there are also construction issues, and all kinds of things are complicated.
This means that the king of Xianyang carried half of it, and Zhao Shu carried half of it.
You must know that among the generals of the Great Qin Rui Shi, Zhao Shu is the youngest, but he is also the one with the greatest pressure.
"Ren Xiao, lead an army of 10,000 vanguards into Xiou and find out the situation!"
"promise!"
Seeing Ren Xiao leaving, Zhao Shu turned to Fan Zeng and said, "Order the Daqinlou boatmen to divide the troops into two groups. One group will continue to sail along the offshore sea, and the other group will sail along the Xun River into Xiou!"
"At the same time, the main army sets off, targeting Zhongliu!"
"promise!"
Military orders were issued one after another, and the Da Qin warriors set off in batches, advancing from Da Qin Nanhai County towards Xiou.
A total of 300,000 Qin warriors were left in the Chu region. Excluding the fallen soldiers, there were at least 2,780,000.
Zhao Shu went south from Moling and led an army of 200,000 people.
In the Chu region, only 80,000 troops were left to suppress it. At the same time, he mobilized 50,000 Daqinlou shipmen, which meant that in the hands of Zhao Shu, not counting the army suppressed in the Chu region, the number had reached 250,000. .
In the process of annexing Dongou and Minyue and South Vietnam, the casualties of the Great Qin warriors can be said to be negligible. However, in this process, the Great Qin warriors absorbed more than 20,000 Minyue soldiers and 20,000 Minyue naval divisions.
Later, in South Vietnam, apart from the old, weak, sick and disabled, there were also 30,000 South Vietnamese troops and 20,000 South Vietnamese naval divisions.
As a result, Zhao Shu's army at this moment has reached at least 340,000 people.
Zhao Shu left 30,000 Qin soldiers in Minzhong County and 30,000 soldiers in Nanhai County. As a result, there were still 280,000 troops, including 90,000 Qinlou ship soldiers.
This time the troops were divided, Wang Ben and Li Xin each led an army of 30,000, and the main army still had 130,000 Qin warriors and 90,000 Qin tower ship soldiers.
This is a huge number.
What really concerned Zhao Shu was that with the participation of Minzhong County's soldiers and Nanhai County's soldiers, not only did the mountain divisions become more powerful among the elite warriors of Great Qin, but also the warriors of the Great Qin Tower began to take shape.
The increase in the number of troops was beneficial to Zhao Shu's efforts to pacify various places, but it also increased the pressure on logistics. With an army of nearly 400,000, it was a terrible expense for people to eat and horses to chew.
Because of this, Zhao Shu was determined to speed up.
"Sir, our food and grass are under great pressure, and our weapons and baggage also need to be replaced!" Fan Zeng looked at Zhao Shu with some worry.
"All the resources of the Dongou royal family fell into the army, and the resources of the Minyue royal family were divided into three. The Minyue royal family kept one share, the Minzhong County governor's office kept one share, and the other part went to the army."
"The resources of the South Vietnamese royal family are also divided into three, and we deserve a share."
Having said this, Fan Zeng smiled bitterly and said: "That's it, it's still not enough. There is nothing extra to send to Xianyang."
"Although this has reduced the amount of food and grass sent from Xianyang, the distance between us and Xianyang is too far, and my subordinates thought that they were asking the king to move the weapons-making workshop!"
"Otherwise, the long supply line will drag us down in the end!"
After taking a sip of herbal tea, Zhao Shu shook his head: "Sir, I understand what you are saying!"
"But you can't do this!"
"Your Majesty gave me Shang Jun's Sword to Suppress Qin and the King of Qin's Sword, allowing me to control the land of Chu and Baiyue, as well as the land of grain crops and chaos."
"Although I am in the army, Moling is still under my orders in name!"
Having said this, Zhao Shu walked up to the map, pointed at the map with his long sword out of its sheath, and said: "According to our division of Minzhong County and Nanhai County, the original Chu Kingdom can be divided into six counties."
"There is one county in Luoyue, one county in Xiou, two counties in the land of chaos, and the land of grain cultivation can be divided into at least six to eight counties!"
"This means that nearly twenty counties are under my control!"
"The population of the Chu region is at least six million. According to the plan between me and the king, including the population of the Yue tribes and immigrants, the population south of the Chu region will reach two million, with half a million households. ."
"This means that by then, there will be two million households in the entire Southern Kingdom, and I will have nearly 350,000 Great Qin warriors and 100,000 Great Qin Tower ship warriors!"
"Besides, I also have Yin Palace, Shanglin New City, Beidou Chamber of Commerce, Nandou Chamber of Commerce, etc...."
"Now, sir, do you still think that I want to write to Xianyang to move the weapons south?"
........
Without careful calculation, I don’t know.
Before, he only thought that Zhao Shu had a high position, was powerful in the Qin Dynasty, and had unparalleled military exploits.
However, when Zhao Shu finished speaking, Fan Zeng only felt his scalp numb.
The power in Zhao Shu's hands was amazing.
This power has far surpassed the six countries of the Central Plains. Once Zhao Shu has different intentions, he can stand on his own in the south, and even annex Da Qin.
After all, Fan Zeng knew that Zhao Shu had a good relationship with Li Mu, and Li Mu had 100,000 Zhao side riders with unparalleled combat power.
Among the elite warriors of Great Qin at this moment, the only generals who could fight with Zhao Shu were General Wang Jian and the former Lord Wu'an of Zhao State.
If it weren't for King Qin Zheng's contribution to destroying the six kingdoms, Zhao Shu would be completely superior to him at this moment. When he thought of this, Fan Zeng smiled bitterly and said, "Young master, what you are worried about is absolutely correct!"
"After this battle, it's time for the young master to delegate his power!"
"Ha ha......."
With a loud laugh, Zhao Shu took a deep look at Fan Zeng and said meaningfully, "Actually, as long as I submit a letter, the king will definitely agree to move some of the disciples to move the workshop south."
"Thankfully it's the king!"
"Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to live in peace, and I will have no choice but to support myself with troops in order to protect myself."
At this moment, there was no one else in the shogunate. Zhao Shu changed the topic and said: "Actually, now is not the time to change clothes. I don't trust all these people."
"Only if they have made great military exploits for our Great Qin, can I trust them without reservation."
.......
Due to the main force's advance, which was so massive that it was impossible to hide it, the news spread to Xiou and Luoyue immediately.
For a moment, the land of Baiyue was shaken, and they were all shocked. The speed of Zhao Shu's attack far exceeded their imagination.
Zhongliu City.
"Your Majesty, something bad has happened!"
The Prime Minister of Xiou walked into the palace, turned to Yisong, and said, "There is news from our people that South Vietnam was destroyed by the Qin people!"
"The King of Nanyue surrendered to the Qin Dynasty, and the Qin people established Nanhai County on the basis of Nanyue. At this moment, Qin Gongzi Shu led his army towards our Xiou..."
