In the Wuying Palace, a huge map of Hebei appeared in front of everyone, although it was a military meeting, but several scholars from the political hall also arrived, this is related to whether the Tang Dynasty can dominate the world next year, everyone does not dare to slack off, the Guards have blocked the entire Wuying Palace, under the steps, countless soldiers are stationed, which shows the importance of this meeting.

On the wall on one side of the main hall hangs the map of Jiangshan Sheji, which shows the schematic diagram of the Tang, Jin and Song dynasties, from which it can be seen that the south of the Yellow River and the north of the Yangtze River, except for Lu Di, are already the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and on the land of Hebei, the grassland part of the state and its north is also owned by Li Jing, the world is so big, Li Jing has occupied more than one-third.

"The soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, Cao Jing, has the grain and grass in the army been prepared?" Li Jing looked at Cao Jing in armor and said.

"The minister has been prepared, respectively hidden in Taiyuan, Luoyang and Bianjing, to facilitate the transfer of military food, military food is enough for 500,000 troops to support more than half a year, half a year later, if the war is not over, you can mobilize the stock, can also support two months, when the army is fighting, the minister will send people to the south to buy grain in the south of the Yangtze River, although it costs more, it is still possible to raise three months of food for the army, in this way, the minister can make up enough food to support the army of 500,000 for about a year, which is not counting the food that the court can get after the autumn harvest." Cao Jing hurriedly stepped out of the queue and said.

Everyone nodded one after another, although Cao Jing was not from a good background, but he was able to gather enough food and grass for nearly a year in such a short period of time, which shows that his methods are extraordinary. Zhao Ding and the others were even very glad at this time, they agreed with Cao Jing's decision to enter the political affairs hall, if Cao Jing was just a household secretary, he would definitely not be so easy to sort out the mysteries here, and the efficiency of the people below would not be so high.

"If the grain and grass are not enough, let Lu Shilang go to Zhancheng to buy it, although the rice in Zhancheng is not delicious, there is no problem to eat enough, and the rice over there is not worth much, you can buy more." Li Jing said with a smile: "In the future, we can capture this place and let the local people grow food for us, so that there will be no time when the Central Plains will not be hungry." ”

"Your Majesty." Everyone laughed when they heard this, although Li Jing said it, but no one cared about it, although there is Champa rice in Zhancheng, but let the people of a country plant rice and deliver food to the people of the Central Plains, no one has ever done such a thing.

But I didn't know that Li Jing actually had this idea in his heart for a long time, establishing colonies overseas, sending a large number of materials to the Central Plains, grain, cash crops, and even plundering population, gold, etc., these are all things that Li Jing is ready to do, but now that the Central Plains has not been pacified, these are just thinking about it.

"Now that the grain and grass are ready, the rest is the generals' business. Cao Jing distributed grain and grass in Taiyuan, Luoyang and Bianjing, so that it was the best, no matter where our army attacked, it could get grain and grass nearby. Li Jing took the golden bamboo staff on the side, pointed to the three places on the map and said: "This attack on the Jin country is to use the power of thunder to conquer Hebei in one fell swoop, and at least to drive the Jin people across the Great Wall, so that they can return to the white mountains and black waters, and continue to live the life of savages." ”

"Your Majesty, please." After hearing this, the soldiers of the three armies were full of passion in their hearts, and they couldn't wait to leap into the field now, and really drive the Jin people back to their hometown in the northeast as Li Jing said.

"If you want to attack the Jin people, you must first consider our rear, although the Southern Song Dynasty was disabled by us, but everyone understands the truth of the cold lips and teeth, when we attack the Jin people, the Southern Song Dynasty will definitely send troops to help, regardless of the size of the troops, but it is always a troublesome thing, Han Shizhong is stationed in Xinye, to build a water division, Yue Fei is stationed in Jiangdu, to resist the attack from the south, for the south, our method is to defend, I believe that 200,000 troops are enough to resist the attack of the Southern Song Dynasty." The bamboo cane in Li Jing's hand was drawn on the Yangtze River.

"Your Majesty, it's better to let General Li Qiao seize the time to occupy the land of Bashu, go down the river from Bashu, threaten the Southern Song Dynasty, and even eliminate the Southern Song Dynasty, how can the army of the Southern Song Dynasty be our opponent of the Tang Dynasty?" Hu Yanzhuo said loudly. In his opinion, the Tang Dynasty had sufficient grain and grass, and the morale of the army was high, and it was easy to defeat the Southern Song Dynasty.

"No." Gongsun Sheng hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, although we have the strength to fight on both sides, but the minister thinks that it is right to defeat the Jin people first, and then go south. ”

"Mr. Gongsun is too cautious, the Tang Dynasty is in all directions, who dares to make trouble at this time, the Yangtze River is garrisoned by General Lin Chong and General Han Shizhong, can anyone break through the defense line of the two?" Hu Yanzhuo said with a smile: "Except for the Jin Man who is my Datang's opponent, who can resist my Datang's blow?" Our soldiers are divided into three ways, and the Jin people can't take care of each other, is there still soldiers and horses to attack the hinterland of my Tang Dynasty? Your Majesty, there are 100,000 soldiers and horses in Bashu, just to recover Bashu and sit in the local area, it is obviously a waste, it is better to order General Li Qiao to divide his troops and march eastward, attack Jingxiang, and General Han Shizhong may be able to pacify Jingxiang by leading the army. The little strength of the Southern Song Dynasty is how to be my opponent of the Tang Dynasty. The generals listened with a thoughtful look on their faces, and after thinking about it carefully, what Hu Yanzhuo said may not be unreasonable.

"General Huyan is brave, I see it in my eyes, but unifying the world is a big deal after all, and we have more than enough strength to deal with a Jin man or the Southern Song Dynasty, but at the same time we are fighting on both sides, which has a great impact, and if we are not careful, we will lose everything." Li Jing thought about it, but still gave up this tempting plan, before the Yue family's army collapsed, he would not rashly fight on two fronts. Who knows if Zhao Gou, this guy, will have a bright brain and send Yue Fei out again, when Yue Fei leads an army of 100,000 to the north, I am afraid that his back will be affected.

Although Hu Yanzhuo had the intention to make meritorious contributions, thinking that he would be able to fight on both sides and be able to take charge on his own, after hearing Li Jing's words, he immediately put aside the thoughts in his heart and quietly waited for Li Jing's decision.

"First of all, the northern grassland, these annuities in order to curb our cavalry, in the grassland, make waves, if it is not for Boyan to sit in the grassland, I am afraid that the grassland is no longer in my hands, the grassland soldiers and horses can not move, but 50,000 cavalry to join the northern cavalry corps, a total of 130,000 cavalry, led by Boyan east into Youzhou, Xiao Weige replaced Boyan, sat in the grassland, and shocked the grassland." Li Jing pointed to the grasslands in the north and said. How could the Jin people fight without cavalry, Li Jing will use most of the cavalry in his hands to deal with the iron cavalry of the Jin people.
