Article 312 Solutions to the problem of insufficient troop strength
In the council hall, after everyone sat down in turn, Jin Jue opened his mouth and asked Wei Yan about Fa Zheng's whereabouts.
"Childe Qi, Mr. Xiaozhi will be able to rush to Jinzhu Pass tomorrow." Wei Yan replied.
"Oh, that's good!" Hearing this, Jin Jue nodded, and then he asked again: "Yang Ren and Meng Da, is there any news?" If not, send some competent men to investigate it secretly. ”
Jin Jue also knew that Wei Yan could take Jinzhu Pass so quickly, and he must have made a rapid march, so it was no wonder that Wei Yan and the others set off three days later than Jin Jue's subordinates, but they did not delay time at all, and they took Jinzhu Pass one day earlier than Jin Jue's estimate.
"No!" Wei Yan agreed, turned his head and waved at his guard, who was ready to leave.
Jin Jue suddenly beckoned to stop him: "Wait, Wen Chang, you will leave the matter of sending someone to investigate, you will leave it to the deputy general." You send someone to gather all of your son's guards at once, as well as your own. This son has something to order. ”
After a short pause, Jin Jue's personal guards and Wei Yan's personal guards were all summoned here.
"Childe! It should have been ninety, but it was ninety. Wang Dynasty stepped forward to inspect it and turned back to report to Jin Jueyu.
At the beginning, the hundred Xuzhou soldiers who followed Cheng Lian and Li Feng to join Jin Jue now, including the dynasty, there are only 90 people left, no, there is also a Hou Tian who has been driven away by Jin Jue, and there are 91 people left.
It is clear that the cruelty of war is there.
You must know that this is because Jin Jue deliberately took care of these Xuzhou soldiers, if not, it is very possible that there are less than ten of these Xuzhou soldiers left.
Jin Jue nodded when he heard this, did not speak, and turned his head to look at Wei Yan.
"Childe, the last general's subordinates have also arrived." Wei Yan understood and replied immediately.
"That's good!" Jin Jue instructed: "Let's all find a place to sit down!" ”
When everyone had found a place to sit down, Jin Jue asked straight to the point: "Wen Chang, presumably after you received the order from this son, did you think that this son must be crazy?" At that time, all the troops of our army in Sanba, even if there were no casualties in the middle, even if Langzhong County and Chongguo County were abandoned, and Fu Tong's 10,000 Hanzhong troops and 10,000 strong men from Hanzhong were all added together, there were only 50,000 three soldiers in the full battle.
On the contrary, according to the intelligence, not to mention the entire Shu County, just in Chengdu City, there are 50,000 Dongzhou soldiers alone, if our army is in Chengdu City, Liu Zhang can wave his hand to recruit more than 100,000 Shu soldiers from the populous Chengdu City. Under this kind of power comparison, even if our army enters Shu County, it can only occupy some subordinate counties around Shu County, and it will not be able to pose any threat to Chengdu City at all, yes or no? ”
"Childe, as you said, Mr. Takashi and I both think that your decision is really a bit reckless. General Yang Ren trusts you very much! Wei Yan is ashamed! Wei Yan was also frank and said what was in his heart.
"Then, the crux of the problem now is that our army has too few troops in Shu County and insufficient grain reserves, right?" Jin Jue then asked.
"Not bad! Childe, have you thought of a solution? As soon as Wei Yan heard Jin Jue's question, his eyes immediately flashed with two fine lights, and he hurriedly asked.
"Not bad! After Ben Gongzi arrived in Sanba and learned about the situation in Yizhou from Liu Shan, he came up with a way, otherwise, Ben Gongzi would be really crazy, so he would ignore the back road and hurry to Shu County, naturally he would not let the big guy follow me to death. The specific method, I won't talk about it first, I'll tell you something first......"
Next, Jin Jue organized the language and made the difference between the two Han Dynasty in his cognition, widely derogatory by the Eastern Han Dynasty family and Confucian scholars whether Emperor Han Huan and Emperor Han Ling were faint monarchs, why Emperor Han Huan and Emperor Han Ling were in office, why they mobilized the party to kill the scholars in the world, and the reasons for the rise of Taiping Dao and Wudou Mijiao, and so on.
When Jin Jue finally finished speaking, suddenly someone in the crowd shouted: "Gao Jian, Gao Jian!" Jin Er Gongzi, when I saw it today, I knew that there was really a genius in the world! Your deafening words just now made me suddenly open my mouth and ask Jin Ergongzi to accept Fa as an apprentice. ”
Everyone followed the prestige, but the person who suddenly stood up and shouted was a white-faced scholar, Wei Yan recognized the person at a glance, and asked in surprise: "Wow! Mr. Xiaozhi, didn't you say that you would be able to go to Jinzhu Pass tomorrow? ”
"Hahaha, it's simple, Mr. Xiaozhi left the troops behind, and he himself rode over with his entourage, I'm afraid it's just to see Ben Gongzi as soon as possible." Jin Jue said with a smile that he didn't take the stubble of Fazheng's apprenticeship.
"Having said so much, how can we recruit enough troops for our army? Next, it's up to you guys to be the individual protectors. From now on, my son appointed the guards around me as the right commander with 300 soldiers under his jurisdiction, and appointed the guards around Wei Yan as the left commander with 200 soldiers. Early tomorrow morning, you will divide your troops from Jinzhu Pass and go down to the townships of Shu County.
Anyone who encounters a large and medium-sized landlord with a bad reputation in the local area will be beheaded by the men in his family, and the local people will be summoned to recruit them to join our army with only one thing - that is, land, and those who are willing to join the army can get fifty acres of fertile land in Shu County, on a first-come, first-served basis, if it is late, after that, it can only be distributed to the barren land or mountain fields in Shu County.
Don't underestimate the local tycoons, who can build their own garrisons and bring their own weapons such as bows and crossbows. If you hit a hard bone, don't get entangled with it, and send someone back to inform me. There are two important points to remember, kill and wound as many enemies as possible, and minimize the losses of your soldiers.
That's right, the number of troops required by our army is to be recruited from the local Shu County. With land as a bargaining chip, I believe that many poor people will make the right choice after hearing about it.
Of course, if the people feel that this condition is not sufficient, you can also promise to give the conscripts a piece of land, and they will be given military merit from now on, and their families will be exempted from any conscription and taxes for three years. However, there is one thing you must keep in mind that it is okay to kill the families of those landlords and gentry, but you must not kill the local people. If there is anything among you that you don't understand, ask now! ”
"Childe, if you do this, aren't you afraid that the world's taxis will attack him?" As soon as Jin Jue finished speaking, Fa Zheng asked in a discolored manner.
