On the night of the fourteenth day of the seventh month, all the core members of the Hua family gathered in the [Family Secret Realm Space]. Today was the big gathering that happened once every ten days. When Erzhuang and Xue Chen talked about the Hua family's stronghold on the grasslands, Hua Xing started to talk about the Hua family's situation in Guang County.
"Guang County is completely different from before. The Han family has joined the new master of Guang County, and the division of power in Guang County has not been completed. Recently, there have been more and more conflicts between families. It seems that we will not be able to stay in Guang County for long. If we stay for one more day, Guang County will not be stable. In the past few days, many subordinate families have come to ask me if we can leave soon," Hua Xing said.
"We rarely enter Guang County, and the restaurants in the city only go to the general ledger once a month. The Huang Jia, Yue Jia, Yi Family and others have already discussed selling their villages. Everyone has decided to leave with us. Even the Geng Family, who did not plan to go to High Willow Commandery before, recently requested to leave with us," Wal-mart said as he shook his head.
Hua Kai had not expected the situation in Guang County to change so quickly. Right now, there were many families in Guang County, and the arrival of several sixth-rank families caused a great change in Guang County. It was fortunate that the Hua family wanted to leave, otherwise, they would not be able to escape this whirlpool.
Everyone decided to quickly leave. Hua Zichen and Xue Pan talked about the situation at Leopard Pass, and then talked about the battle with the Donghu cavalry half a month ago. Everyone felt that the core of the Hua family's future development had to be military.
At this time, Hua Kai saw that Xue Chen seemed to have something to say, and indicated for him to speak.
Xue Chen thought for a while and said, "Family Head, our Hua family monopolizes High Willow County. In terms of size, it's not smaller than any other county. High Willow City's population has already exceeded 60,000. We can definitely plan our own army now. Even if it's just a prototype, we can quickly expand the size of our army in the future."
Xue Chen's meaning was clear to everyone. If a powerful enemy were to invade the High Willow County, they would need the entire High Willow County to gather all their forces to resist the enemy. The Hua family could organize more forces to participate in the resistance.
"I agree with Xue Chen's suggestion. I have some preliminary ideas in the past few days. Let's all think about it.
If we want to unleash the full potential of the family, it's best to establish the framework of the army right now. For example, the Hua family's most elite light cavalry, the Hua family's garrison troops that need to protect Leopard Jade Pass and High Willow City, as well as the regular troops that can deal with all kinds of accidents. "Hua Kai said.
The development of the Hua family had already entered the stage where all the core members of the family would discuss it together. Hua Kai would make the final decision. This method would allow all the rules and decisions to adapt to the family's development to the greatest extent.
"Kai-er is right. Separating all the soldiers into different armies will increase their strength to the greatest extent.
The Hua family's light cavalry is the Hua family's elite. There's no need to doubt this!
Our Hua family only needs to firmly control this army. As for the rest, we can let all the subsidiary families participate. "
Hua Xing said at this time. He was considering the integration of the entire Hua family and the subsidiary families. Everyone nodded when they heard this.
At this point, the new army's reconstruction had already been decided. All that was left were some details and branches. Hua Kai had some modern knowledge of military supervision. While everyone was discussing, he would occasionally give some suggestions. Everyone talked until late into the night before they finally decided on the Hua family's future military development plan.
On the second day, Hua Kai checked on the family's status.
The family's fighting strength was 9678. They were only 300 points away from 10,000 points. Hua Kai originally wanted to complete the 7th Main Mission as soon as possible, but time did not allow for it. He needed to rush back to Guang County City.
All the important members of Jade Leopard Pass were called to the main hall for a meeting. Hua Kai sat on the main seat.
"The expansion of Jade Leopard Pass is gradually on track. In half a month, we have already rushed to build over a thousand mud houses. Next up is the construction of the city walls and other defensive facilities.
Tomorrow, I plan to return to Qi. I will quickly send over the new blueprints of Jade Leopard Pass, as well as the stones and wood. "Hua Kai looked at everyone and said.
In half a month's time at Jade Leopard Pass, Hua Kai had already sent all the family members who could enter the [Family Secret Realm Space] to train. He had upgraded over 20 horses, and 16 BMW horses had successfully broken through.
Upgrading horses was a slow process. The most important thing now was to rebuild Jade Leopard Pass. He planned to wait for the family to complete the migration and gain a foothold in High Willow County before slowly upgrading the horses.
In this battle, he had gained over 10,000 luck points. Hua Kai did not use the luck points to upgrade the family's martial techniques. Instead, he refined over 90 sets of [Golden Silk Soft Armor] and over 30 sets of [Silver Bright Spears].
"Kai 'er, I've already discussed the three types of military construction plans with everyone. At this rate, the Hua Family's soldiers' salaries alone will exceed 100,000 Gold per year. Including the weapons, equipment, and daily necessities, we'll need at least 200,000 Gold per year."
Hua Zichen told Hua Kai about the matters discussed in the [Family Secret Realm Space] last night. He was the most anxious when he heard about the expansion of the family's military.
This time, the Hua family's military reform was supported by Hua Kai. When the light cavalry squad heard about the new plans, everyone was extremely happy. If they became an army, even if they did not have many people, their reputation and status would rise. As the Hua family's most elite unit, they would definitely become a banner of the Hua family.
"Tell me the results of your discussion. When I return to High Willow City in the 10th month, the Hua family's light cavalry squad and Jade Leopard Pass's city guards must be built. If there are any problems, raise them early and we will do our best to solve them.
As for the problem of money, don't worry about it first. "Hua Kai said.
At this time, Hua Zichen took a stack of papers and stood up. As one of the core members of the light cavalry squad, his brain was more flexible. Hua Zichen gave him a lot of things to do.
"Family head, the captains of the light cavalry squad have discussed for an entire night. We feel that if we want to stabilize High Willow City, it is best to divide the army into elite, standing, and garrison troops. The Hua family's light cavalry squad is the most important elite army and belongs to the first category.
The High Willow Pass's city guards and Jade Leopard's city guards belong to the regional garrison troops. The newly built standing troops belong to the second category.
The third category is the militia that you requested. Every year, we will train all the youths for at least 30 days, so that they can put on armor and go to the battlefield at any time. "Hua Peng's voice was loud and clear. Everyone listened quietly.
"The Hua family's light cavalry squad plans to expand to 3000 people. There will be a total of three brigades. All the members will be at least at the qi transforming stage.
The brigades will have ten squadrons, and each squadron will have ten small squads.
Currently, we have about 2000 people in the reserve cavalry squad, but many of them are still at the peak of the initial element stage. Their horsemanship is still not good. "Hua Kai looked at Hua Peng and said.
The Hua family's light cavalry squad was the most outward of the Hua family's youths. In order to meet the needs of the light cavalry squad, the family had slowly formed a reserve squad. It was just that this reserve squad was loosely organized. Everyone practiced on their own. When their strength and horsemanship reached the required level, they would be personally recruited by Hua Zichen.
"In our reserve squad, there are many people who are at the qi transforming stage who are not even 20 years old. I did not let them join the cavalry squad as soon as possible. If we recruit them this time, the light cavalry squad may expand to 1600 people." Hua Zichen said at this time.
"If you don't experience the rain, how can you see the rainbow? Every member of the Hua family has the duty to protect the family.
The reserve squad of the light cavalry squad still needs to be established. We can pour in a large amount of resources. This year, we must establish the framework of the brigades, squadrons, and small squads! "Hua Kai replied.
Everyone could see Hua Kai's determination to expand the army. After moving from Guang County to High Willow County, the opponents they had to face had changed. The Hua family had to change in order to survive in this place for a long time.
"The Hua family can choose any second class Household Servant and below. Now, you can spread the news of the conscription. Everyone who joins the Hua family's light cavalry squad will have a minimum salary of ten gold a year. You can also come up with a plan for meritorious service and compensation.
In the future, the Hua family's light cavalry squad's military expenses and standing army expenses will all come from me. Yu Jun, you will prepare the military expenses of Leopard Jade Pass. Fourth Uncle, you will prepare the military expenses of High Willow County's garrison troops and gather them in front of Butler Wal-mart. "Hua Kai said.
Hua Kai wanted to turn all of the family's fighting forces into soldiers. In the Central Plains, this was something only the seven first class families could do.
The minimum requirement for an elite army was Qi Transformation Realm, while the minimum requirement for a normal army was Natal Opening Realm. Even the largest country in the Central Plains, the Qin Empire, did not dare to set such a standard. Hua Kai's confidence came from the tens of thousands of B- and above slaves he brought back from the grasslands. Now, they were basically all Natal Opening Realm and above.
3000 elite light cavalry soldiers. According to Hua Kai's plan, everyone would wear the [Golden Silk Soft Armor]. This would require more than 20 Wan family's luck points. Based on the family's luck points increasing by 3 to 400 every day, it would take around 2 years.
Leopard Jade Garrison Troops and High Willow Garrison Troops were planned to have 1000 people as well as 1000 reserve troops. The reserve troops only needed to participate in garrison training for 15 days every month. These people could be chosen from the subordinate families.
5000 standing troops. This was a number that Hua Kai had carefully considered. The main purpose of the standing troops was to patrol the borders and support the local garrison troops. High Willow Region was too big, so their mission would be the most arduous. Hua Kai still wanted to wait for the garrison troops to be completed before clearing the entire High Willow Region of wolves and other desolate beasts.
Everyone had their own opinions. Very quickly, the Hua family's military reorganization plan was decided. Everything would be left to the Fifth Uncle first. After Hua Kai brought the family back to High Willow Region, he would then write a training method for the family to increase the strength of the family members.
After the meeting ended, Hua Kai rode on [Lu] and left Leopard Jade Pass.
Leopard Jade Pass was located in the west of High Willow City. Hua Kai planned to quickly return to Guang County. He would need to travel all the way south. With [Lu]'s speed, he would only need a day to rush back. As long as he returned, the new aristocratic families in Guang County would have some consideration for the Hua family. Only then would the Hua family be able to safely complete the 2000 li great migration.
