528: Chapter 165 Powerful and Special Druid (Part 1)_1 528: Chapter 165 Powerful and Special Druid (Part 1)_1 Elder Wei Ming raised his hand, stopping them before they could continue, “I have already decided on this matter.
With the authority of both myself and His Royal Highness the Regent, this is not subject to change.
I will explain to you all after we return.”
Having no choice, the four from the Eastern Dragon backed down, and the matter was settled.
Ye Yinzhu saw Elder Wei Ming so cooperative, and he too sighed in relief.
He was right; to gain mutual recognition, the most important thing was integration.
Only by helping each other can true brotherhood and national friendship be forged.
“As for the number of troops to be trained, does the Elder have any suggestions?
There are less than five thousand human soldiers in Qin City, and I will leave them all under the Elder’s unified training,” Ye Yinzhu asked Elder Wei Ming.
Wei Ming thought for a moment and said, “Quality over quantity in troops.
The Eastern Dragon has Four Martial Arts Sects, so we will train four legions.
Each legion will be named after the four sects.
The basic military officials will be served by our Dong Long Soldiers.
But that’s just at the base level.
To be promoted, they will have to rely on their strength.
At the same time, once they enter the base level, they will also be responsible for teaching the martial skills of the Eastern Dragon to the new army.
Initially, I hope the number of each legion stays around ten thousand.
Including the original ten thousand from the Eight Eastern Dragon Clans, the total will be fifty thousand.
Each legion will have a size of about twelve to thirteen thousand.
This equates to one Eastern Dragon Soldier instructing five new soldiers, which I think is not difficult.
It also won’t be too great a burden on Qin City in terms of equipment.”
Ye Yinzhu slowly nodded, saying, “The four new armies that the Elder speaks of, I assume they are all infantry.”
Wei Ming nodded, “Yes, this is the result of our years of contemplation.
Only infantry can truly bring out the capabilities of our Eastern Dragon Soldiers’ martial skills.
At the same time, infantry is the most flexible.
With the Douqi of our Eastern Dragon Soldiers, in terms of speed, they are not inferior to any cavalry in a short time.
Moreover, the Eastern Dragon possesses special bination Attack Skills that can merge the same origin forces of up to five hundred people to launch a powerful attack.
Therefore, our Four Martial Arts Sects have always focused on training warriors as infantry.
They are a specialized form of light-armored infantry.
However, the requirements for light armor and weapons are very high.
Light armor must be made of soft armor, not only with good defensive power but also lightweight, reducing the burden on the warriors as much as possible.
Weapons have always been our biggest issue.
As you know, finding a good sword is not an easy task.
Of course, with the help of our friends from the Dwarf race, this is clearly no longer an issue.”
Ye Yinzhu slowly nodded, “Thank you, Elder, for the guidance.
In that case, we will follow the Elder’s suggestion.
However, I think ten thousand is a bit too few.
How about we recruit an additional two thousand five hundred for each legion, having each of the Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, and Chrysanthemum legions consist of fifteen thousand?
The four legions, in total, will have sixty thousand men as our light-armored infantry warriors.
With only infantry, it is obviously not enough.
We also need a cavalry unit and a long-range attack unit.
I have already had some plans for these two units.
Once the Three Hundred Grim Reaper Warriors arrive, Ye Hongyan and Peja will be responsible for training these two armies.
The cavalry will mainly be light cavalry.
For the mounts, we will try to purchase Eric Minlongs from Milan.
Let’s set the number of cavalry at ten thousand for now, and Peja’s archers are also tentatively set at ten thousand.
Once this batch of new soldiers is trained, our Qin City will be able to wield a fighting force of eighty thousand.”
Ye Yinzhu’s ideas for cavalry were not yet plete; a unit with speed, endurance, and sustained bat ability, capable of fighting in the north and south, was clearly very useful when attacking the enemy.
But he also considered the fact that cavalry consumes a massive amount of resources.
The Eric Minlongs he mentioned were such that only about ten thousand were available in the entire Milan Empire.
He needed to meticulously study this issue of mounts.
However, cavalry couldn’t be left out, so he hadn’t thought too much about what type of cavalry to focus on; everything needed to start with the mounts and resource equipment.
The wealth Qin City currently possessed was still far from enough.
Training troops was urgent, but equipment could wait a little longer.
As for the archer troops, they were certainly necessary.
Mages were good, but mages were few in number.
Moreover, except for Blue rank or Zi rank super mages, the range of a mage’s magic attack was far worse than that of archers.
Ye Yinzhu planned to have this army trained by Peja include not just archers but also crossbowmen.
With Peja’s ability to train Divine Archers previously in Polly’s Kingdom, there was no question he was fit for the task.
Elder Wei Ming nodded and said, “Then how shall we proceed with our personnel placements?
How should the military units be calculated?
And how do we arrange the mages from the Four Magic Sects?” As he asked, his face showed a relaxed smile.
Having Ye Yinzhu as the Regent was great; at least he could trouble himself less with the details, and Ye Yinzhu’s considerations were much more prehensive than his own.
Ye Yinzhu said, “Let the mages form their own army.
Right now, among the Four Music, Chess, Calligraphy, and Painting Sects, there are about four hundred mages.
After establishing the Mage Legion, I will require at least Fourth Rank Yellow-rank or above to join the legion.
Those who are not up to Fourth Rank Yellow-rank will continue their cultivation.” The Yellow rank in the Eight Eastern Dragon Clans was not the same as the Rainbow-grade Yellow rank.
This Fourth Rank Yellow-rank represented the strength of Beginner Green rank!
It was equivalent to Ye Yinzhu setting the entry bar for his mage troops at the standard of a novice Magic Scholar.
Elder Wei Ming said, “This is simple.
Excluding the sect masters of the Four Magic Sects, there are seventy-six mages who have reached Fourth Rank Yellow-rank and above.
They will form the first magic team of Qin City.”
Seventy-six people might indeed be a small number, but mages were the rarest profession throughout the continent, especially those above Green rank.
pared to the Arcadia Kingdom, having over seventy mages above Green rank was also quite good.
After all, even an empire as big as Milan would have fewer than ten mages at Zi rank.
And in Qin City, at least the sect masters of the Four Magic Sects and himself all possessed Zi rank strength.
“As for the military formation, let’s keep it simple and follow the basic formation of Milan.
Ten people form a small team, one hundred form a medium team, and five hundred form a large team.
One thousand five hundred form a brigade.
The four legions of Mei Lan Zhu Ju each consists of ten brigades.
Each brigade’s name will be in order according to the name of its legion.
For example, the ten brigades from the Zhu Sect would be called the First Brigade of the Bamboo Army, the Second Brigade,…
and so on.
The name ‘Bamboo Army’ isn’t very good, so let’s do it this way.
We’ll name these four legions after the exclusive martial skills of the Four Martial Arts Sects: Cold Plum Legion, Noble Orchid Legion, Arrogant Bamboo Legion, and Phantom Chrysanthemum Legion.
The cavalry and archers will have two large teams to a brigade, and the two legions are also posed of ten brigades each.”
Elder Wei Ming carefully noted down the formation Ye Yinzhu had provided.
In terms of military affairs, the elder’s understanding was not extensive, as the Eight Eastern Dragon Clans had always emphasized martial skill cultivation and had little knowledge of army leadership.
Having said all this, Ye Yinzhu suddenly felt that managing the vast Qin City was more arduous than facing powerful enemies, but fortunately, he had thought it through last night.
For now, this would have to do, and the system of Qin City would be gradually improved in the future.
At this moment, Anya suddenly said, “Yin Zhu, you have divided our future human legions very well.
But what about our Elf Tribe’s army?
Do you plan to have them join the human army directly or form their own separate army?”
Ye Yinzhu was taken aback and replied, “The Behemoth Tribe, Elf Tribe, and Dwarf race are all partners of Qin City, not my subordinates.
I think it’s not necessary to incorporate them into Qin City’s battle sequence for now.”
Anya frowned and said, “How can that be?
You just said we are all part of Qin City, how can we not contribute to Qin City’s future?
You alone resisted Milan’s invasion of three hundred thousand, but if we cannot help Qin City in the future, how can we consider ourselves partners of Qin City?
At the very least, our Elf Tribe’s army must join Qin City’s forces.
You can have unified mand.”
Chief Rutz said, “Miss Anya is right.
Our Dwarf race’s warriors are also willing to fight alongside the warriors of Qin City.”
Ye Yinzhu smiled and said, “That’s really great.
I am honored to follow your wishes.
Chief Rutz, your Dwarf race’s greatest ability is not fighting, but casting.
I think it’s best if you focus on casting, and unless Qin City faces a vital threat, the Dwarf race need not participate in bat.
As for the Elf Tribe and the Behemoth Tribe, now that we have a hundred warriors from the Behemoth Tribe, they will bee the Army of Heavy-Armored Behemoths of Qin City.
As for the Elf Tribe, Sister Anya, how many warriors can you deploy to join the army?”
Anya pondered for a moment and said, “I must retain enough personnel to help me manage Qin City affairs.
I will select more managerial talents from the Humans to join in the future.
As for the army, I think I can provide a special legion of ten thousand to join Qin City’s battle sequence.”
Ye Yinzhu was surprised when he heard Anya’s words, “The Elf Tribe has so many warriors now?”
Anya smiled slightly and said, “Yin Zhu, after this meeting is over, I will give you a surprise.
This special legion of ten thousand has just been formed recently.
I will entrust them to you from now on.
Unfortunately, this is the maximum number that our Elf Tribe can provide, and it will be difficult to increase this number in the future.” (To be continued.
