As a Duke, although his own army could be expanded without limit, it ultimately didn't look good.
Because doing so would make him appear aggressive, especially considering events that had already happened, making Zhao Guang now wary of increasing his military might, which would probably face much opposition.
Zhao Guang had always disliked being universally opposed. He would either hide himself away or use other means to circumvent the issue.
What Zhao Guang was thinking about now was not increasing his troop strength but adding some teams that were not part of the conventional army. The Demon Puppet Army was one such force, which didn't need to be recorded as part of the regular forces.
No matter how many he owned, others would not be able to fault him in this regard.
After all, some Mages also had their own Magic Doll teams, and no one said that was equivalent to a private army.
Of course, now there was a new option, which was the Magic Beast Army.
