766 troops
Jingshi, Luoyang, in the General's Mansion.
A heated debate continues.
Cao Cao sat in the corner and didn't say a word. This was very different from his usual behavior, Cao Cao was thinking about it.
"We should continue to delay, we need more money, food, and weapons to send troops, and besides, it is already winter, and it is extremely unfavorable to send troops in winter. I'll wait long enough until next year before I can send troops. Yuan Shao stood up and objected. He gave his reasons well.
Captain of the Upper Military Academy. Jian Shuo gave a new order. He has already given orders three times in a row. Let the general He Jin lead his descendants to attack the base of the Republican Army, because in the past, some Republican militia appeared in the Shangdang area and in the south. Moreover, many local villages have joined in, and the situation seems to be very unfavorable, and if the whole Shangdang falls under the control of the Republican army, the consequences will be unimaginable, because the whole of Luoyang is within the range of its attack.
Jian Shuo's order seemed to be normal. But the problem is, it's clear to all of us that this is very abnormal.
The end of the year is approaching. People's hearts are fluctuating, they can't travel at all, and demoralization will make it impossible for many soldiers to give full play to the results they should have. Therefore, these have become Yuan Shao's legitimate reasons.
However, Yuan Benchu did not grasp the key to the matter.
"Why, why is it so anxious to mobilize the general to the north?" Cao Cao said this in the corner, but it seems that many people didn't notice the words of this new military lieutenant in the West Garden. In their eyes, it seems that Cao Cao's worries are not very important.
But that's the crux of the matter. Yes, why did Jian Shuo move the general north in such a hurry, what happened to make such a situation so difficult to solve.
The general seems to be paying too much attention to the question of how to refuse to be taken. For this fundamental issue, not much attention has been paid to it.
Nangong. Firefox is also sorting out the information she has collected recently, and there seems to be a lot of information, which seems to be messy, but for her, who is proficient in history, it is very simple, because he knows the results of historical development and evolution, and then according to this result, she conducts reverse reasoning, grasps the key to the characters, and can analyze the intelligence. It was an extremely simple thing for him.
"Why? Jian Shuo is so anxious to let the general go north, and there is a great threat to the Republican Army going north? Firefox wrote on a piece of paper.
"Nope. No way. Firefox shook his head. Things are definitely not so simple, the republican army is just encroaching step by step, their range of action is relatively small, the threat does not seem to be very large, and the general's troops are placed in the mountains, if the troops cannot be used, the result will be very troublesome, which will bring them a lot of trouble, in such a situation, it seems that it is not a very good choice to complete such a thing.
Is it possible to use such a way to defeat the strength of the Republican Army and the Great Generals? Apparently impossible, because the general would not have followed such an order at all.
None of the above may seem too favorable. In such a situation, it is clear that this is done. It's not the best choice, so now the problem arises. In such a case. What is the most beneficial? There is only one answer, the throne.
"Yes, the throne, that's the most important thing." Firefox focused on marking some of the thrones.
Why did he do this, because Jian Shuo obeyed the arrangement of Emperor Ling of Han, the future Emperor Xian of Han, King Chen Liu, and Liu Xie. He is the youngest son, and the eldest son of the emperor is Liu Wei. Liu Wei's biggest strength is his relatives. He Jin, a great general who has a lot of military power, He Mei. and the queen of the court, Empress Ho. This is the biggest obstacle to the abolition of longevity.
Emperor Ling of Han hated his eldest son, Liu Wei, and it was already a public matter that he liked his younger son. The eldest son of the emperor has no royal bearing. For such a child, the possibility of competition has basically been lost, but the problem is that the power of the relatives behind the emperor's eldest son is very terrifying.
There is a queen in the palace, and there is a general He Jin outside the palace.
Only by transferring He Jin away and making it impossible for him to form an interfering force outside the palace can it be beneficial to Liu Xie.
Thinking about this, Firefox nodded, she felt that she was a genius.
But the question is, why is there such a hurry? It seems that in many places it is extremely unreasonable.
"Play Detective Conan? Hehe, I'm going to be a big detective. "Firefox sees these as detective games.
Such a hurried transfer. Time is running out for sure. Why is there not much time, that is, the person who can control the Great General and make the Great General feel that the situation is out of control. Who is this person, Emperor Ling of Han. Emperor Han Ling's time is running out. It can be seen that his condition has entered a range that is difficult to control.
Think about such a thing. Firefox suddenly became cheerful, perhaps, this is an extremely important piece of information, Firefox began to write these thoughts, and then make reasonable speculations. Then translate it into numbers and send it out. In this case, if it is seized, it will not be found at all, it is sent from here, and this is a simple number, and if it is not deciphered, it will not be possible to do such a point.
Hedong, inside the Maheng Headquarters.
The defenses of Hedong entered the most impregnable state. In order to show friendship, Dong Zhuo just left many, many empty military camps on the west bank of the Yellow River. And the advantage of the Republican Army is that their mobilization, the improvement of their defense capability, the Republican Army has about three artillery battalions deployed there, and once the other side wants to cross the river, it will be subjected to heavy artillery fire, which is something that cannot be done at all.
"And the state side reorganized an infantry brigade. The establishment of two regiments. In this way, in the north, we deployed. Five infantry regiments, two artillery battalions, as well as a cavalry battalion. The operational staff officer said. Bingzhou is the north gate of Hedong. And the state military district must be heavily defended.
"This little bit of troops, on the surface, seems to be much more sufficient. But in reality, it's still not enough. Ma Heng said worriedly.
"Yes, sir, on the defensive side, we need to build a lot of forts, winter is coming, and we can only place our artillery in temporary gun emplacements. The defensive points of the infantry are not very good, and in the north, they are all flexible and mobile cavalry, if it were not for the entanglement of the Wuhuan and Huns, it would be difficult to rely solely on an infantry division and an infantry brigade. The operational staff officer said.
"So, we need to do many, many other things to strengthen our defenses, and our situation is as favorable as possible." Ma Heng said.
The Republican Army reorganized the guerrillas in the north, and two infantry regiments were formed into separate infantry brigades. The rest of the guerrillas were disbanded and became militias and villages on the spot, but in order to better manage the guerrillas. The republican army still adopted the formation of the army, according to the militia of more than 100 people and the militia company to establish villages. Their families will become villagers.
The IRA distributed food, clothing, medicine, and some supplies for the winter according to the population, and everything had to wait until the next year to start again. The post-war reconstruction of the state is still more troublesome, because the population loss is relatively serious, and the post-war reconstruction is a very serious issue, and if it cannot be done in such a way, it will be difficult for them. is a bit of a hassle.
It is precisely this point that is not good news for the defense of the annexed states.
Ma Heng kept the focus of his defense in the north, where it was easy to break through. It's still hard to organize defenses on the spot.
Lijiazhuang. War Department.
"Build a lot of forts. It is convenient to create a corresponding line of defense in the north. Shang Wu looked at Ma Heng's report and said.
"It is necessary to establish defensive positions, but the question is, what about our mobile forces to build fortifications on such a large scale, in the north, our forces are not sufficient, not only in the north, but in any situation in the surrounding areas, and, if this is done, financial funds, and more investment in troops." Jia Xu objected.
"Hmm." Shang Wu nodded, built water conservancy, built fortifications, and various defense expenses. The IRA's financial situation deteriorated even more.
"The economic blockade of our neighbors has not been alleviated, and the heavy taxation and pressure on our trade cannot be expanded, and it is difficult to bear, which is a very big pressure on us, and such a situation is very unfavorable for us, and it will take a long, long time to change this situation in the future." Jia Xu said that for the proposal to build fortifications in the north, Jia Xu believes that it is not necessary for the time being, or that the problem should be solved from another aspect.
"The root of all the problems is money, and if we can expand trade, our fiscal revenue problems will be much reduced." Shang Wu said.
Trade could expand commercial tax revenue, but the heavy taxation policy of the imperial court severely restricted the commercial expansion of the Republican Army, which was an extremely heavy blow to the Republican Army, and such a blow was a very unfavorable result for them. Naturally, they don't want that to happen.
"Perhaps, we can solve it in other ways. Think of ways to start some of the points on the fortifications that you can build yourself. It's not big, but as long as you can deploy quickly, I think this problem can still be done. Shang Wu said that if they didn't defend themselves, once they invaded, they would cause a lot of economic losses, which was definitely not the result they wanted to see. These are some of the issues that the current IRA needs to consider. These things must be handled properly.
