Wang Han's death did not set off many aftermaths. Three days later, according to Wang Han's wishes, his body was cremated.

Haji handed the ashes into Wan Yankang's hands and said in a low voice: "Father Khan said that His Highness promised that he would bury the ashes of Father Khan in the royal court of my Kerebu!" ”

Wan Yan Kang took the ashes, put them in front of him, and swore to the sky: "Immortal Heaven is above, and when I finish Yan Kang in my lifetime, I will respect the will of the Khan and let his soul return to his hometown!" ”

After speaking, Wan Yankang knelt down on his knees and kowtowed to Wang Han's urn three times.

Haji turned to the side and silently wiped away tears.

Wan Yankang put away the urn and ordered the class teacher to return to the city.

The level of warriors of the Kreb tribe is higher than that of other small and medium-sized tribes. Of the 80,000 soldiers of the Kereh Division, Wan Yankang selected 30,000 elites from them and rushed back to White Horse City with him. The rest of the troops were under the command of Borchi and Quentin.

At this time, the vast grassland between Qiaobal Mountain and White Horse City, which stretches for thousands of miles from east to west and two thousand miles from north to south, has been completely controlled by Wan Yankang. The original tribal leaders are still settled in the same place, but their wives and children have all moved to White Horse City.

Juekong was appointed as a special envoy for inspection, leading a battalion of elite cavalry, traveling around east, west, north and south, and patrolling the Quartet on behalf of Yan Kang.

On the day of the cold dew, in the autumn wind that had already had a bit of murderous intent, Wan Yankang led the army back to White Horse City.

At this time, there were 85,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry in White Horse City. Such a strong military force is gratifying, but it also brings another trouble.

Can't live in the city!

At the beginning of the construction of White Horse City, it was designed to accommodate a full 80,000 soldiers. Counting the small resettlement of the soldiers' families and the merchants coming and going, the maximum capacity of the city, 150,000 people, is the limit.

In the early days of White Horse Castle, this design was already quite ahead of its time, and the space was quite abundant. It's just that no one expected that in just a few years, there would be not enough space in the city!

It's not that I don't understand, the world is changing fast.

After Yan Kang returned to the city, he first faced this matter, he returned to the city lord's mansion and bowed slightly to Xu Daosheng: "Sir, why teach me?" ”

Xu Daosheng's feather fan shook slightly, and he ordered with a smile: "Please come to the female Zhuge Sect!" ”

Wan Yankang was surprised when he heard this, and immediately came to his senses, Xu Daosheng should be referring to Huang Rong. The way of the king in the world is that women are never allowed to participate in politics. But Wan Yankang is a person who has been influenced by the idea of equality between men and women, and he knows very well how Huang Rong's talent can be wasted.

What's more, once a woman has something to do, she won't spend all day long in the family and fight over some trivial things.

With more intimate people in charge, you can avoid palace fighting, so why not. Before leading the army out of the city to meet the Kereh Department, Wan Yankang had already asked Xu Daosheng to arrange errands for Huang Rong's three daughters.

With a cup of tea, Huang Rong stepped into the conference hall. After Yan Kang looked at it, he saw that Huang Rong's dress was completely different from usual. She wore a white scribe's robe, thick-soled official boots, and a folding fan in her hand.

What a beautiful boy!

Wan Yankang pulled Huang Rong over and asked in a low voice, "Rong'er, why are you dressed like this?" ”

Huang Rong grinned: "People want to participate in government affairs, if they look like girls, it's not easy to do things!" ”

After saying that, she touched Yan Kang's forehead, and said pityingly: "Brother Kang, you are dark!" ”

Wan Yankang also touched Huang Rong's cheek: "Rong'er, you have lost weight." ”

Xu Daosheng coughed slightly, signaling the audience to pay attention to the impact.

Wan Yankang smiled embarrassedly, sat up in a precarious position, and then raised his eyebrows at Xu Daosheng: "Sir, wait for you to speak." ”

Xu Daosheng glanced at him angrily, and then said to Huang Rong: "Rong'er, you mentioned the plan for the resettlement of the army before, you might as well say it again." ”

Huang Rong bowed slightly towards Xu Daosheng: "Okay, sir!" Then she cleared her throat and began to talk.

Huang Rong started with the situation in the grassland, and with the defeat of the Kerebu, the only obstacle to Temujin's domination of the grassland was White Horse City.

After the annexation of the Kereh tribe by the Qiyan tribe, it was initially estimated that Temujin had at least 300,000 men with armor. And with the existing military strength of White Horse City, even if the sphere of influence controlled by Wan Yankang is added, he can only be on the defensive against Temujin now.

Wan Yan Kang won the battle at the Krulun River, which made Temujin promise not to commit crimes for three years. But if you can believe it, the sows will be able to go up the tree.

There will be a battle between White Horse City and the Qiyan Department, and this battle will most likely start after the spring of next year.

This is Huang Rong's judgment.

Hearing this, Wan Yankang thought so, nodded, and motioned for Huang Rong to continue.

Huang Rong put forward two plans: one is to scatter soldiers in the grassland, scatter to graze, and gather to become soldiers, just like the original situation of the grassland tribes. The second is to divide the troops and garrison the existing forces of White Horse City to Gyeongju and Taizhou respectively, and between the three cities, they are each other's horns.

According to these two methods, the pressure of the lack of capacity of White Horse City can be solved, and at the same time, combat readiness can be taken into account. These two methods, in Wan Yankang's view, can only be said to be decent, and there is not much peculiarity. But Huang Rong was able to think of this matter in advance, which shows that Mei Jiaoniang has been trained recently, and she is already a teacher in dealing with military and political affairs.

If Xu Daosheng is not there, Wanyan Kang will definitely take this opportunity to reward Huang Rong with a fragrant kiss.

Pity......

Wan Yankang changed his mind, praised Huang Rong for a few words, and then said slowly: "It is absolutely impossible to scatter soldiers, and it is the best policy to divide troops to garrison." However, there are clouds in military law, and cooperation is strong, and division is weak. If Temujin attacks with hundreds of thousands of troops, and there are only tens of thousands of horses left in my White Horse City, how can I resist? ”

Huang Rong paused slightly, thought for a while before refuting: "The art of war has clouds, ten are to surround it, and five are to attack it." I defend the fortified city, and I have the danger of a great river, and I only need 50,000 or 60,000 troops in the city, and I can be Temujin's army of 300,000! The armies of Taeju and Gyeongju can choose the opportunity to fight and contain the enemy. ”

Wan Yankang said: "What if Temujin has more than 300,000 troops? ”

Huang Rong froze when he heard this: "According to my estimate and my husband's estimate, the Beggar Department can gather 300,000 troops, which should be the limit." ”

Wan Yankang walked to the map by the wall and drew a large circle in front of White Horse City: "If I were Temujin, I would have swept the grassland first, and enveloped the tribes that now belong to my White Horse City." In this way, his men can be increased by at least 100,000 soldiers. ”

Xu Daosheng's face became solemn, when he discussed with Huang Rong, he really never thought that the beggar department would use this trick. After Yan Kangyi reminded him, Xu Daosheng knew that once the war started, this was Temujin's inevitable strategy.

The big war is about to start, and there is no chance to be left to chance!

"Then move the people in to avoid its edge!" Huang Rong said her thoughts decisively.

"Herdsmen can't do without cattle and sheep, and cattle and sheep can't do without grassland."

As soon as Yan Kang's words came out, Huang Rong and Xu Daosheng immediately understood. The leaders of these tribes of Hongda are currently subordinate to Wanyankang, first, the situation is compelling. The second reason is that Wan Yankang did not encroach on their territory, but gave more grassland, gold and silver. If these tribes were ordered to move eastward in order to avoid the advance of Temujin's army, the leaders and herdsmen of these tribes would not obey the orders.

Xu Daosheng and Huang Rong's military strategies were all based on the war thinking of the Central Plains. In the Central Plains, although it is important to conquer cities, the occupation of population and resources is the most important.

Abandoning cities, relocating populations, and clearing the wilderness are all common means of warfare in the Central Plains.

On the grassland, herdsmen live in pursuit of water and grass, and it is difficult for a herdsman to give up the fertile pasture and migrate hundreds or even thousands of miles with cattle, sheep and horses.

What's more, if Temujin easily occupied the grassland west of White Horse City, he could not choose to storm White Horse City at all, and only need to encircle the point and send reinforcements.

Therefore, Wan Yankang proposed a strategy to build more dock forts on the front line, mobilize all forces, fight for every inch of land, and prepare for a protracted battle with Temujin.

This protracted war is divided into three stages: strategic defense, strategic stalemate, and strategic offensive.

"The final victory will be ours!" After Yan Kang had a small discussion with Huang Rong and Xu Daosheng, he quickly convened a military enlargement meeting to convey the latest strategic thinking and belief in victory.

According to Yan Kang's estimate, a dock fort can accommodate 1,000 people, and it can be completed in March. Building a hundred dock forts on the grassland is enough to accommodate the stragglers of various tribes, and enough to contain the army that Temujin may come in the next spring.

The 100,000 troops of White Horse City quickly mobilized and began to supervise and assist the tribes in building dock forts, striving to complete the strategic task before the end of the year.

To Wan Yankang's surprise, Huang Rong has grown rapidly and has been able to help Xu Daosheng share a lot of pressure, while Li Mochou and Tian Xiaowan have not been idle for a month, and they have begun to show their respective talents.

Tian Xiaowan started as a maid, and since she was a child, she has had a dream of becoming a housekeeper's wife, and she has a certain foundation for inventory, accounting, inventory and scheduling. Xu Daosheng knew how to make good use of it, and arranged for Tian Xiaowan to do the work of logistics, and within half a month, the little maid would understand the doorway and allocate the priorities of the materials, and she also handled it just right.

The position of quartermaster may be a fat shortage in other places, but in White Horse City, it is a chore. This errand is complicated and prone to mistakes. Second, Shangguan is powerful, handsome and powerful, which ordinary quartermaster dares to rub oil.

Tian Xiaowan was a person close to the master, and since he was qualified for this position, the original quartermaster immediately resigned, claiming that he would re-straddle the horse and carry the gun and go into battle to kill the enemy.

Xu Daosheng left this person's resignation letter in the middle, and decided when Yan Kang came back.

Wan Yankang took the resignation of the quartermaster, thought about it again, and still rejected it, but since Tian Xiaowan was capable, he also appointed Tian Xiaowan as an adjutant.

Li Mochou is even more incredible!

There has long been a saying in the army of White Horse City, Ning Yu Lord Yan, Aunt Mo Yamei!

Mei Chaofeng's ferocity has already been laid in the Divine Soldier Base, and after she followed Yan Kang to White Horse City, she still started to supervise the army, and Aunt Mei's fierceness gradually spread throughout the army.

With Huang Yaoshi rushing to Zhongdu, Wan Yankang knew that after arriving in White Horse City, he couldn't hide Mei Chaofeng's news, and confessed the fact that Mei Chaofeng was under his command to Huang Yaoshi halfway.

Huang Yaoshi heard the news of this criminal, and was about to rush to White Horse City to clean up the portal, but he couldn't stand the bitter pleading of his baby daughter, and heard that Chen Xuanfeng was dead, and Mei Chaofeng was blind again, so he finally let this criminal go gently.

Since Mei Chaofeng met Huang Yaoshi, he seemed to be a different person, almost did not appear in the barracks, and only followed Huang Yaoshi to serve before and after the saddle every day.

Aunt Mei's whip was gone, and the Qiu Ba who were full of camps suddenly blossomed, but they didn't wait for these Qiu Ba to be happy for two days.

A newcomer took Aunt May's place.

Although Li Mochou's martial arts are not as good as Mei Chaofeng, she is also slippery when she plays with the whip.

What's more, Li Mochou can also get needles!

Whenever I think of this fairy-like figure in white clothes, the smile on the corner of my mouth when I pinch up the golden needles. The Qiu Ba who have been subjected to needles will tremble unconsciously.

When he saw Mo Chou, the king of Hades was worried, and such a sentence spread in the military camp.

For Wan Yankang, the three daughters are busy every day, which can be regarded as saving a lot of worry for herself. At this time, his daily daily work was either to find Huang Yaoshi and Zhou Botong to learn martial arts, or to practice the formation with the expanded Wushuang Flying Horse.

Life is so uncomfortable!
