Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Army Is Tightly Armed

After thinking clearly, King Liang and Guanqing did not stay for long, but quickly returned to the mountain.

At this time, it was already evening, the sun was setting, the only way up the mountain was also frozen, and the weather was terrible today.

When this happened, King Liang couldn't sit still at all, and quickly summoned the generals to discuss countermeasures, and at the same time lit a few pots of charcoal.

The people sat on both sides of the stove and listened to the king's 1510 words.

King Liang's face was solemn, "Recently, this Qi Lehou has been doing things a little weirdly, I'm afraid he is not a fellow believer, and we have mistaken him before."

"Moreover, after entering the state this time, the king also inquired carefully, and everyone saw it differently, so the king did not go to meet him."

At this time, King Liang had already told everyone what had happened and what he had heard, and everyone had a solemn look on their faces.

Xu Wen frowned, "The prince did a very good job, since he refused to show up, we don't have to worry"

King Liang sighed, "It's just a pity, this big Yuzhou...... Alas"

Since ancient times, Yuzhou is a place where soldiers must fight, it not only extends in all directions, but also occupies the Central Plains, all sides occupy advantageous terrain, if you occupy this place, you can overlook the world.

King Liang is concerned about the Liang Dynasty, and he thinks about the plan of recovering Liang all the time, if he gets here, it will also be a hegemon, so that Fuliang will be just around the corner.

As for Fu Yu's Bazhou, it also has the advantage of the Yangtze River, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Han Ju seemed to see through what King Liang was thinking, and comforted him, "Lord Wang, if you want to win Yuzhou, you need to think about it in the long run, since Qi Lehou has other plans, we just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and when it has a move, I will wait for the opportunity to move and take the profits of the fisherman."

King Liang sighed, "I just don't know what kind of calculation this Qi Lehou is making, if this person doesn't do anything all year round, wouldn't it be a waste of my precious time"

At this time, Xu Wen smiled, "Lord Wang, in my opinion, it is impossible for this person to move in recent years, and he still needs to make long-term plans. ”

Liang Wanghu was suspicious, and couldn't help asking, "What do you mean, sir?" ”

Xu Wen got up from his seat lightly and said, "He is so calm, it is nothing more than avoiding people's eyes and ears, unwilling to be the first bird, this person is extremely smart, he may be waiting for the opportunity, waiting for other princes to fight for hegemony, cannibalism, and then waiting for the opportunity to move, and then make a preemptive strike, and establish the position of the overlord of the Central Plains."

"Taking advantage of this, we also happen to gather the local bandits in Yuzhou, strengthen our strength, and expand the grain and grass, so that we can compete with others."

In Xu Wen's opinion, no matter what, the place in Yuzhou cannot be discarded, since the Hou Ye occupies the city, which outside the city is the chassis of King Liang.

"Alas, what can I do now, I can only do this" King Liang sighed, and then asked, "Sir, do you have any plans for grain and grass in the near future?" ”

Xu Wen smiled faintly, "I already have eyebrows"

"Oh?" King Liang was puzzled and stared sideways at Xu Wen.

Xu Wen arched his hand, "Don't hide it from the prince, I already have a plan" After that, Xu Wen smiled at Meng Shu and said, "General Meng Shu, you can inform the prince of what you heard in the near future."

Meng Shu nodded, got up from his seat and bowed down and said, "Lord Qi, the last general has been ordered to make a detailed survey of the surrounding terrain, and has briefly drawn a sketch by hand, please take a look at it."

King Liang was happy, in his impression, Meng Zu was a rough mine martial artist, he never expected to be able to draw a sketch, and couldn't help laughing and said, "General Meng, and show this king"

A sketch less than fifty centimeters long was passed up, and when King Liang looked at it, he immediately smiled, and saw that on the map, every ravine and forest was marked in it.

Although it was a sketch, it was also very detailed, and King Liang nodded with satisfaction.

At this time, Xu Wen smiled and said, "General Mengdian, you can inform the prince of what you heard in the near future."

"Yes!"

Meng Dian strode forward, walked to the center, and arched his hand and said, "Lord Qiqi, the last general has been ordered by Mr. to do a detailed investigation of the bandits, within a radius of 100 miles, there are hundreds of bandit leaders, no less than 50 camps, rough statistics, a total of 50,000 or 60,000 sergeants, no less than 5,000 military horses, and about 8,000 stones of grain and grass."

"Okay" King Liang was delighted, and couldn't help but set his eyes on Xu Wen approvingly, "Such a huge number, if it can be used by me, why worry about the world."

At this time, Xu Wen smiled and said to Meng Ping, "General Meng Ping, you can inform the prince of the news you heard in the near future."

"Yes"

Meng Ping bowed his hand, got up from his seat, and came to the center, "Lord Qiqi, the last general was ordered to investigate the details of that official, and he has already raised eyebrows."

"Oh?" King Liang was puzzled, and then said, "General Mengping, you can talk about it in detail."

"Yes"

Meng Ping bowed, "The previous official was originally a minister of the six grades of the DPRK, and his assets, grain and grass were all expensive, but when he first came here, he was afraid that the leaders in the mountains would be targeted, so he scattered his wealth and reached an alliance with the leaders of the mountains to not interfere with each other."

"Such a person has also attracted the admiration of many leaders, and those who have close relations with them are no less than seven or eight families, and the cottage has changed hands, these seven or eight bandits have already known, and they have repeatedly sent troops to investigate in the past three days, and they may be suspected of sending troops to recruit them."

"Okay" King Liang clapped his hands, now the terrain, the number of bandits King Liang is already clear, but there is one more point, but King Liang frowned, "I don't know how many soldiers and horses there are in these seven or eight families, if they come together to attack, can you be sure?" ”

At this time, Xu Wen smiled faintly, "Lord Wang, don't worry, the seven or eight families add up to only twenty or thirty thousand people, besides, the terrain here is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if there are two or three more, what are you afraid of?" ”

Seeing that Xu Wen was so confident, King Liang was relieved, nodded, and then asked Han Ju and the others, "General Han, have the sergeants made progress recently?" ”

Han Ju smiled slightly, "The prince can rest assured, he has been practicing non-stop in the past few days, and he has made great progress, if the bandits attack this time, it is just time to test the results."

"Haha" King Liang smiled, "This king has Mr. Xu and the Lord of Han, why worry about the failure of the plan to restore Liang"

At this time, King Liang looked at Yan Tu, Xue Chi, Liang Ren and others.

It is worth mentioning that Liang Ren was not taken seriously by King Liang that day

After all, King Liang indirectly killed his younger brother, he was worried that Liang Ren had a grudge, but Liang Ren was not angry, but very generous, he knew what King Liang thought, so he followed Yan Tu to train the infantry.

Liang Renyantu stood up, "Lord Qiqi, the infantry has also made rapid progress in the past few days,"

King Liang was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and said to Liang Ren, "Liang Ren, this king didn't give you the task before, I'm really afraid that you will be in a bad mood and affect the sergeant."

King Liang really underestimated Liang Ren, only to see Liang Ren take a step forward and arch his hand and say, "Lord Wang, the last general will know"

"You won't hold a grudge against this king, will you?" asked King Liang

"No" Liang Ren waved his hand, "The prince is benevolent and righteous, and his younger brother is young and ignorant, and he has made a big mistake, as it should be"

"Alas, that's good" King Liang sighed, he killed his younger brother, although he was to blame, but he still had a knot in his heart and didn't dare to face it.

At this time, he diverted the topic and asked Xue Chi, "General Xue, how is the training of the crossbow soldiers?" ”

Xue Chi had a handsome face and fair skin, and said with a faint smile, "The prince is worry-free"

"Okay, that's the case, you wait and take your place, practice normally tomorrow, and step up your precautions tonight to prevent bandits from attacking" After that, King Liang said to Liang Ren again, "Liang Ren, tomorrow you will go to train the cavalry, and the infantry will be handed over to Yan Tu"

Liang Ren was overjoyed and hurriedly surrendered his hand

The cavalry is the backbone of the army, I don't know how much stronger than the infantry, King Liang can hand over such a heavy task to him, it can be seen that King Liang has significantly reduced his mustard, so that he will not live up to his father's painstaking efforts.
