About to land on the main continent, after setting off from the Yidao military port, Qu Mao was filled with emotions.

This was not the first time that Qu Mao landed on the main continent. When he went to Yancheng Port for trade before, Qu Mao had landed on the main continent several times.

This time is obviously different from the past. In the past, he secretly came to the main continent incognito to purchase the necessary resources for the Yicheng territory to survive. This time, he led millions of troops to occupy the territory on the main continent.

With the stretching effect of the upgrade of the Yicheng territory and the lord's hut, the distance between the three newly formed islands in the north of the Yicheng territory and Yancheng Port is less than 250 kilometers.

Moreover, Sylvia Ocean's level has improved a lot, and the warships have also changed, so the navy's sailing speed is getting faster and faster. The time from Yidao Military Port to Yancheng Port has been shortened to about 6 hours.

The army didn't even last 6 hours.

Although he set off in the dark, Qu Mao naturally would not waste time on the road in the cabin. He stood on the deck blowing the sea breeze, waiting for the sun to rise out of the sea, and looking at the direction of Yancheng Port, Qu Mao had a lot of thoughts.

When the territory of Yicheng was still the territory of Yicun, it was very small and weak. Accompanied by Sunan, Qu Mao went to Yancheng Port to conduct trade. He was cautious all the way and had to bribe the coastal defense battalion commander of Yancheng Port.

Even though he came twice, Qu Mao was always hiding and not grand enough, but this time, Qu Mao landed as the master of Yancheng Port, and it felt completely different.

Sylvia Ocean and Qu Mao were on the same warship, and Kong Ming was also accompanying them. Although Qu Mao did not ask Kong Ming and Sylvia Ocean to accompany him and stand on the deck to blow the sea breeze, the two

The hero never left Qu Mao.

The warship rides the wind and waves on the sea at a very fast speed. It cuts through the waves along the way, which makes Qu Mao feel relaxed and happy. Originally he just wanted to be a salted fish, but Bird Man forced himself to fight. If he doesn't fight, he will die.

If that's the case, let's give him a good future.

For Su Yan and the Yicheng Territory Expeditionary Force, who have been fighting for almost two months, the reinforcements led by Qu Mao and Kong Ming are an extremely morale-boosting thing. Su Yan is also the nominal heir to Liusu Principality, Liusu Principality.

The process by which the King of the Princely Kingdom seized the throne was disgraceful. As long as the expeditionary force captured a territory, the residents of the territory would need little effort to recognize Su Yan's rule.

Su Yan is the daughter of the old king of Liusu Principality, and is the third princess with the right to inherit. Now she is the only bloodline of the old king of Liusu Principality. Restoring Liusu Principality is something that all the residents of Liusu Principality consider to be a matter of course.

All the residents of Liuwang Principality never considered Su Yan to be an invader. On the contrary, they openly or covertly supported Su Yan's restoration of the country. Especially after Su Yan continued to donate food to ordinary residents, the residents of Liuwang Principality showed their support for Su Yan.

Reached unparalleled heights.

The hungry residents of Liuwang Principality will receive food within a week after Su Yan takes over the land, so they are naturally grateful to Su Yan.

In the territories of Liuwang Principality that were not occupied by Su Yan, ordinary residents all looked forward to Su Yan's early recovery of their area.

At around 12 noon on March 15, the fourth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao's flagship was successfully docked at the Yancheng Port pier. Soldiers from the Yicheng Territory Expeditionary Force had already been responsible for clearing the place and imposing martial law.

But even so, there are still many residents on the streets outside the Yancheng Port pier. They somehow knew that this was the arrival of reinforcements from Princess Su Yan, so they held flowers in their hands and waited to welcome the reinforcements ashore.

Since the beginning of the war, Yancheng Port has been under military control, and the number of commercial ships and civilian ships has been very rare.

Qu Mao stood on the deck and looked at the residents holding flowers on the streets outside Yancheng Port, feeling filled with emotion.

Including the soldiers parked at the Nancun Naval Military Base, the reinforcements he brought this time amounted to 1.05 million, of which the number of fourth-level soldiers and higher-level soldiers exceeded 250,000.

If the wealth of the former high-level army soldiers is included, the number of high-level soldiers invested by the Yicheng Territory on the battlefield of Liuwang Principality should have exceeded 400,000, including nearly 50,000 fifth-level warriors and higher-level warriors.

According to Qu Mao's understanding of the various forces in the main continent, even the Mughal Empire, which ranks first in aboriginal forces, may not have such a large base of high-level warrior troops.

On the main continent, generally 10 cities with more than 100 million inhabitants can become a prince. Of course, the Luanshan prince is a special case.

Three to five princes can form a principality, three to five principalities can form a kingdom, and three to five kingdoms can form an empire.

According to this calculation, a principality has a population of about 300 million to 500 million, a kingdom has a population of about 1 billion to 3 billion, and an empire can easily have a population of tens of billions.

Of course, the size of the territory is different, and there are also special cases such as the Luanshan Marquis State, which has a very small land area, and the Liusu Principality, which is a very large area.

According to the ratio of 10 people to soldiers, an empire should theoretically have about 1 billion regular troops. However, it is obvious that it is unrealistic for an empire to maintain 1 billion troops.

Now the territory of Yicheng is within the Liuwang Principality. Not counting Qu Mao's reinforcements, there are at least 5 million troops, which is an extremely spectacular army size. After all, too many regular troops and garrison troops in the Liuwang Principality have surrendered to Su Yan.

The moment Qu Mao boarded the dock of Yancheng Port, the residents of Yancheng on the streets outside the dock cheered, and cheers of "Welcome the Holy Lord to land" kept coming. Qu Mao was shocked by the title of "Holy Lord".

Kong Ming saw Qu Mao's puzzled gaze and said, "Sir, Su Yan is their highness and their future king.

And my lord, you are Su Yan’s lord, Su Yan’s lord, so it is reasonable for the residents of Liuwang Principality to call you this. Your Excellency, there is no need to be surprised by the mere title of ‘Holy Lord’.

Holy Lord is a noble among nobles, a title of honor above the king."

Qu Mao suddenly understood, nodded and said: "There is no need to engage in these formalistic things, and the army should not stop in Yancheng.

Notify the five high-level warrior troops to gather their respective troops as soon as possible, march to the target area quickly, and quickly achieve the combat goal.

The 800,000-strong army should not enter Yancheng and gather troops outside Yancheng.

Once the troops are assembled, they immediately move towards Prince Liu's royal city and join Su Yan's troops as quickly as possible.

We are here for reinforcements. We cannot reinforce 1.05 million troops and still cannot take over the remaining quarter of the land of the Princely Kingdom."

Kong Ming said: "Yes, sir, my subordinates will make arrangements. The army will not waste time in any territory that has been captured. Please rest assured, sir."
