"Two more possibilities?" Everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

What else is possible?

The current intelligence doesn't seem to support much consideration, does it?

However, when they thought of Wang Bu's way of thinking and his strategic creation, everyone was surprised, but they didn't feel any surprise.

"First, the Huns did attack Yueshi, but the scale of the war was far less than Yueshi said, Lone felt that this was like a temptation, and it was also a warning to Yueshi, sending cavalry to the border to show up, it seems to be also warning us, wanting Lone to disperse his troops everywhere to defend." Wang Bu was hungry and said unreasonably, everything was based on speculation.

Some of the people nodded, some shook their heads, and no one was sure whether it was right or not.

"If the king's guess is true, then it can only prove that Lu Jia's appetite is too big this time, which scared the Yue people, but he has to agree, so he made this decision." Zhang Liang said.

Wang Buxing also nodded, which was one of the reasons why he came to this conclusion.

For a tribe as large as the Yue Clan, there are millions of horses.

Lu Jia asked for a hundred and eighty thousand, and he couldn't scare them at all, at most, it hurt a little.

But if it's 200,000 or 300,000, it will really scare them.

Peng Yue was the most embarrassed of all the people present.

As the Scout Governor in charge of intelligence, he is in charge of intelligence at home and abroad.

Now that such a big thing is happening in the north, he doesn't even know anything, and he really can't hold his head up here.

But some things are not as simple as you think.

It is difficult to advance the scout work in the north, and now the scouts in the north of the Han Kingdom are basically free-range.

It's hard to manage them and form a huge network like they do in China.

And to the north, because it is all grassland, the scouts are also fluctuating with the nomads.

Some have even blended in, and have even married and had children.

Although he can hide his identity very well, the problem is the same.

The timeliness of the message, the accuracy of the order, these are all problems in front of us.

An order sent out by Peng Yue's side, sometimes no one can be found after half a year, and the scout obtains an important piece of information, and when he is unlucky, he will also hold it in his hand for half a year and cannot pass it on.

The characteristics of the nomadic people have contributed to this result.

They can't establish a fixed stronghold, and even if they do, they can't hide it.

The unique geography makes it difficult for the scouts to progress in the north, and the transmission of messages is also very inefficient.

Unless the Han army enters the grassland in large numbers, then they will have the opportunity to pass on more information.

To sum up, the scouts lurking on the grassland now are basically a state in which soldiers can't find generals and won't be able to find soldiers.

Recently, Peng Yue is racking his brains to think of a solution, but how can this solution be thought of in a while?

Peng Yue lowered his head cautiously, for fear that others would notice him, and the pressure on his body doubled.

Fortunately, everyone didn't blame him, and they didn't deliberately pay attention to him.

"How big Lu Jia's appetite is, we will know in two days, and the minister thinks that he should check the accuracy of the news as soon as possible." Chen Ping said.

"Well, Peng Yue, if you arrange this matter as soon as possible, it should not be difficult to find traces of such a large-scale war." Wang Buxing nodded, the verification of the news is still very important.

Although there should be no trace on the battlefield, a random snow can cover everything, and when the snow melts in the spring of the next year, basically nothing can be seen.

Except for the exception of the exceptionally pleasing growth of the grass, there will be no more traces at all.

But the battlefield is easy to cover up, but people are not easy to be covered, from the Huns, from the mouth of the Yueshi people to set intelligence.

And this information, which came out of the mouth of the Huns, was relatively more reliable.

"Your Majesty, what about the other possibility?" The baby then asked.

The biggest headache now is his military secretary.

At the time of the reform, when there was a period of scarcity, if there was a war, he could only call back the soldiers who had been disbanded.

Although the war came suddenly, everyone will understand.

But if this is done, it will undoubtedly affect the credibility of the government.

Reform without preparation, let the army go home, and it was still in the slack period.

Although the Han Kingdom has completed its unification, not all the hearts of the people in the world are here.

There will always be people who say cool things, and there will always be people who are unwilling.

"The Huns have changed people!" Wang Bu was hungry and said directly.

"What?"

"The Huns have been replaced?"

Everyone looked at Peng Yue, who wanted to be a little transparent guy from the beginning.

And at this moment, Peng Yue blushed even more.

I......

It's so hard for me......

"I didn't ...... I didn't receive the information, and I didn't say that the Xiongnu Shan Yu was not in good health, the latest information should be three months ago, someone saw that the Xiongnu Shan Yu was still hunting with people, it didn't look like he was sick at all......" Peng Yue said with a tangled face.

Wang Buxing smiled slightly, of course he knew that Tou Mandanyu's body was fine.

However, history cannot be wrong.

And history also told him that this time, there is a high probability that it will be an acting competition, because there is not only one Hun in the north now.

There are more powerful tribes than the Huns.

That's right, it's that Donghu.

Looking back on the historical process, the history of the northern grasslands is difficult to change by itself, except for a lot of scouts dispatched, the rest is the original history.

Extrapolating it again, it seems that the murder of his father and usurpation of the throne will be this year or next year, because after that, he really doesn't have enough time.

The Xiongnu went south, after the unification of the steppe.

And now, to the west is a Yue clan that has been injured but still has the strength to fight.

To the east is a powerful Donghu, the Donghu who once fought the Huns were afraid of when they slept.

In this external situation, how did the Huns go south?

According to the solution one by one, in the rectification of two years, the time with the siege of Bai Deng is just right.

Although the Donghu people are arrogant, they are not fools.

When the Xiongnu fought against the Yueshi before, Donghu was ready to steal his ass.

It's just that because the war went too fast, the Yue clan was defeated too quickly, and Donghu was not given this chance.

This time, the Yueshi people leaned on the Han State, with the natural barrier provided by the Han State, as well as the cover of the elite infantry, once the Huns started a war, they would inevitably be stolen by the Donghu people.

The Su Clan is not a fool, this is also a character of the rank of a hero, it is impossible for him not to see this.

Therefore, if you want to fight, you must first fight Donghu, and then completely sweep the east.

As for the west side.

One is the Yueshi people who were scared out of their guts.

One is the Han who do not have the ability to go deep into the grassland for expeditions, so starting a war with Donghu first can avoid being stolen by the west to the greatest extent.

Thinking of this, Wang Buxing suddenly calmed down.

People are afraid of impulsiveness, and the easiest thing to make wrong decisions is also at the moment of receiving the news.

When he saw this information, Wang Buxing really wanted to gather 500,000 infantry to go north and fight the Huns little by little.

But after calming down, I found that this information may be a fog in itself.

Piercing through the fog, we saw the inner essence.

"Continue to strengthen the collection of intelligence on the northern side, everything is business as usual in the country, step up preparations for war, all troops must be in place by March next year, and priority is given to the supply of armaments!" Wang Buxing changed his previous anxious state, and said calmly in an instant.

"Your Majesty, the north has to be defended, and the minister still thinks that it is more appropriate to immediately recruit soldiers to the north to deploy defense!" Xiao He suggested.

It's really too scary news, what if the Huns really come?

"Don't worry, the Huns won't dare to go south in a year or two!" The king was not hungry and said calmly.

Then he told them about his considerations one by one, including the current distribution of forces in the north.

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be even more surprised.

They had always heard of the Xiongnu, although they later learned that there were other tribes in the north.

The information received, although it was also available, was incomplete, and it was not their responsibility.

And the one who received the most was of course Peng Yue, who was cautious for a whole time.

Peng Yue, who finally found an opportunity, dared to stand up with confidence, and said: "The Huns have only risen in recent years, they have developed very fast, and they fought a battle with the Yueshi people, which attracted the attention of the king, if you have to find a metaphor, then the Huns are the Han State of Zhuxia, and Donghu is the Qin Court, and the Yue Family is the Chu State, even inferior to the Chu State." ”

"I see!"

"Unexpected......"

As soon as Peng Yue said this, everyone instantly understood the situation in the grassland.

Naturally, it is understandable why the Xiongnu are particularly important.

How did the Han Kingdom start, no one knows better than them, and now they see a shadow of the Han Kingdom in the north, can they not pay attention to it?

The matter was settled for the time being, and in general, it was a false alarm, but it also gave them a wake-up call.

At the same time, it also reminded Wang Bu to be hungry.

The current system still seems to have some minor problems, and there are naturally no problems in peacetime, but in wartime, it is easier to rip off.

And now is the preparation period, which is just the right time to give them a chance to run in.

After thinking about it, Wang Buxing decided to form a cabinet dedicated to the war effort.

"Lone decided to form a cabinet, the members have three high-ranking officials, the military department, the household department, the Ministry of work, the scout governor seven people, if necessary in the future, you can increase the personnel, the cabinet is formed, until the date of dissolution, the cabinet is not responsible for government affairs, everything is only to prepare for war, war-based, all the ministries during the government affairs, must be given priority to the cabinet decision......" Wang Buxing said slowly.

The country's political affairs are managed by various institutions, and when there are no major problems, it is better not to mess around.

This cabinet, on the other hand, is more like a war council, but with fewer personnel and more sophisticated.

The three high-ranking officials are think tanks, and they are also the people who decide major policies, so it goes without saying that the secretary of the military department is naturally in charge, and he is in charge of domestic military affairs, and the household department is in charge of money and grain, so can there be less money and food in a war?

The Ministry of Engineering is in charge of the construction of ordnance, although the construction of ordnance is the responsibility of the Ministry of War, but in fact, the Ministry of War orders and supervises, and the Ministry of Engineering is responsible for manufacturing.

Not to mention the scout governor, there is nothing to say.

How can you make the right decisions without the support of intelligence?
