Lan Jianshi is the son of Lan Mu. Although Lamb does not have a knighthood, his status in the Elders' House is not low. Blue stone is also a proper second generation, undoubtedly. As the status of the men of the kingdom continued to improve, he was also highly valued by Lamb. Therefore, from an early age, he was carried in and out of the palace. In fact, he is familiar with Lin Ji.

It was precisely because of this that he dared to make a head bird in this situation and ask Lin Ji questions.

He didn't feel ashamed to wash the toilet for a month to get the answer to Lin Ji. After the students lined up to start the 30-kilometer cross-country, everyone also slapped fists and high-fives on him from time to time, as if he was a hero.

Lan Jianshi was also extremely proud in his heart.

Thirty kilometers of off-road routes have long been available. They went back and forth along the line, and when they came back, they tried to help the students who had fallen behind, although they were extremely embarrassed, but in the end no one was left behind.

By the time I got back to school, it was already dark. The lights were lit up in the classroom, and Lin Ji was not there, but Lin Ji's secretary was waiting on the podium, and there were several guards around him to stand guard around the classroom.

"Part of what the king is going to say below involves secrecy. Let me first tell you about the confidentiality level of confidentiality, and after the king finishes speaking, I will ask everyone to sign a confidentiality agreement......"

After the squad leader took the roll call, Lin Ji's secretary said. Although the students below were very tired, they still instantly recovered their spirits like chicken blood.

After a while, the secretary finished speaking, Lin Ji asked people to move a projector and put it on the podium, and after turning off the lights, a map was projected.

"Everyone has studied geography and knows the geography of our country and the surrounding areas. This is a map of our country and the surrounding area......"

Before the words could be spoken, the students exclaimed in amazement. Some people are amazed by this magical projection. Some people marvel at the vastness of China's territory. Someone is amazed at the area occupied by the wolf clan.

On the map, the territory of Huaxia looks like a fruit that has been bitten in the middle. The two ends are large, the middle is small, and the top piece is much larger than the bottom one. The one below is the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the Huai River basin. The one above is a vast grassland from the northeast to the Tien Shan Mountains. The small part in the middle is a small area from Taihang Mountain to Mount Tai.

And the wolf clan area marked on the map is the Guanzhong area two or three hundred kilometers west of Taihang Mountain!

"Many people can see that this is the Guanzhong area. As the geography books say, there are two areas around us that are strategically located. The first is Shuzhong in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River on our side. The second is Guanzhong. Because both places are surrounded by mountains on all sides or three, and there are thousands of plains among them. It's really an easy place to defend and hard to attack. I want to say something that is not mentioned in the geography books, that is, these two places must be the territory of China. In my lifetime, I will definitely take these two places. Lin Ji said solemnly on the podium.

When the students below heard this, they immediately responded with their cries. I can't wait to go into battle immediately and take down these two places for Lin Ji.

When the call was a little quieter, Lin Ji continued: "This is confidential content, everyone keeps it secret...... Then many people will ask, since these two places are so important, why don't we take them right away? And a place is still occupied by wolves? ”

"This needs to go back to our geography books and go back to the question. Why don't we attack these two places? We need these two places because they are easy to defend and difficult to attack. One of the reasons why we are not attacking these two places for the time being is precisely because they are easy to defend and difficult to attack. ”

"At present, as far as we know, the vast mountains and rivers in central Shu and the north are occupied by the Chaling people. Most of Guanzhong was occupied by the werewolves. Both of these places have become less easy to attack. That's why we're attacking now, or we haven't expanded any further west. Because we have to pay too many casualties to capture these places. ”

Lin Ji paused slightly, and the students below raised their hands. Lin Ji waved his hand to prevent them from speaking, and continued: "I know that you will say that you are not afraid of death and can give everything for the country. No one in Huaxia is afraid of death. I firmly believe that all men are the most heroic. But here we have to consider a question of the costs and benefits of war. ”

"In other words, with our current situation, is it worth the effort after attacking them?"

"The General Staff has done a deduction. You will also learn this deduction in your future staff classes, and you will come to the conclusion that at present, to take these two places, you will need 40,000 to 50,000 troops, as well as no less than this number or even more logistics personnel. And it may take a year or two to occupy both places. ”

"What is this concept? That is to say, probably the young and strong people of the whole country will be thrown into this war. All of the kingdom's food and material reserves for several years will be depleted. Most of the schools, research institutes and factories we have built today will be closed. Why? Because the rest of us are going to farm or raise livestock, or our children will starve to death. And that's not even counting the risk of our failure. ”

"If we win, what do we get? Even if we win, they may move westward, and the number of captives we can get will be extremely limited. ”

"And combined with our investigation and my personal knowledge, the plains of these two places are swamps at the moment. This is caused by the flooding of the Weishui and Minjiang rivers. Therefore, in addition to the geographical advantages, the environment of these two places is still relatively harsh. After we occupy it, we still need to invest a lot of manpower and material resources to operate. At present, the kingdom is vast and sparsely populated, and if there is another war, there will be no manpower at all. ”

"So, do you think this battle is necessary to fight now?" Lin Ji put his face into the projected light, and looked at the students under the podium with blazing eyes.

The students in the audience were a little silent. For them, they were a little disappointed to get such an answer by being fined 30 kilometers off-road. They all understand the reason, but they always feel a little regretful, and as for what they are not satisfied with, they can't say.

Quite a few students also lamented it. Everything they have learned is to serve the war, and now the result is that they cannot fight, and they are naturally unhappy in their hearts. This relaxation, the exhaustion of thirty kilometers of cross-country welling up, they just want to sleep.

Lin Ji smiled and said, "You may think that the wolf people were chased by me on the grassland, and I am mortal enemies. This traitor in Blazing is absolutely unforgivable, and he understands us in Huaxia, and he will definitely not coexist peacefully with us because we are afraid of war, right? ”

Finding that Lin Ji had no intention of ending the conversation, most of the students once again beat their spirits and wanted to listen to dry goods.

With that, everyone continued to look at the map. Do you see anything? Lin Ji asked on the stage.

Everyone looked at the map and tried to see the flowers on the map.

Lan Jianshi's voice sounded: "We have surrounded the territory of the wolf clan on three sides, and the initiative has been in our hands. We can flank them on three sides when they attack us. Let them not dare to act rashly. ”

"Good." Lin Ji nodded in approval.

Seven years ago, Lin Ji did not relentlessly pursue the wolf people, because he was worried that they would become a great disaster in the grassland, so as to threaten him like later generations. The grasslands are vast, and once they become climate, they will bring endless troubles to themselves.

But that's no longer the case. Bayang occupied the entire Mobei grassland with a round smile, and it was under the control of Huaxia until the snow line in the north, and the wolf people instead drilled into the inland land of Guanzhong and locked themselves up, which made them lose the initiative.

This gives them a great geography, but it also leaves them with no room to maneuver. The threat is not as great as it used to be. This is also the reason why Lin Ji did not fight against them in the first place.

Lin Ji said: "After the wolf clan hid in Guanzhong, it took seven years to learn to tame beasts and plant. According to preliminary investigations, their population is now about 800,000 to 100,000. The main range of activities is in the Weishui area south of the Hetao. The area of cultivated land is about 1 million mu, and more than half of it is slash-and-burn fields. Our territory is this large area, and the cultivated land area is 10 million mu as much as theirs, and more than ninety percent of it is intensively cultivated. Our population is also 10 times their 800,000. Are we afraid of them in comparison? ”

"Don't be afraid!" All the students shouted together.

"Since we are not afraid of them, and the initiative is in our hands, the cost of playing at this time is too high for us, so why don't we wait until the right opportunity to play?"

"When is the right time?" A student asked in a loud voice through the darkness.

Lin Ji said: "Yes, when is the right time?" You can think for yourself. ”

"You might say that there's a traitor in the wolf clan. He's learned a lot from us, and he's sure to make the wolf people stronger. The more time they are given, the stronger they are likely to become. ”

That's a good point. From what we have learned, the wolf people have now learned to strike iron. Their farming and animal taming techniques were also taught to them by Blazing. Now Chizhong is their guru, second only to their leader, Hu Xiao. It is foreseeable that the wolf people will definitely develop in the future. So, when is the right time? ”

There was silence under the podium for a while, and suddenly some people began to speak: "But that's all there should be in the blazing zone." Unless they have spies with us. ”

"They can strike iron, we now have a thousand-ton forging machine, and they can't cut through the iron armor we make."

"At best, they can only use animal power, we are already using electricity, and our steam and internal combustion engines are being studied. Can we drive a car and fight? ”

"And our population is growing faster than they are. Now 40,000 may be all our troops, but in ten or twenty years we may have 100,000 troops. ”

"If they are swamps, they will definitely not develop as fast as us."

"We also have universities and research institutes that can make faster knives or arrows that shoot farther, and we can also make muskets, right?"

“……”

"So, when would a more appropriate time for war?" Lin Ji asked with a smile.

"Future!"

China is developing in an all-round way, and the longer it develops, the greater its strength. The greater the gap in strength between the two sides, the longer this battle drags on, the more beneficial it will be to Huaxia.

The students themselves came to such a conclusion, which can be said to be both exciting and regretful. There are infinite possibilities in the future, and when the time comes, they may be a general, able to command thousands of troops and horses to fight. But they also worry that if the war drags on twenty years from now, they may all be old. A few years ago, forty years old was considered old, and their cognition has not changed.

Lin Ji said: "Strategically, we hope that it is best for this war to drag on for decades, but everyone should also think about it, should we just wait for decades?" Is it possible that the wolf people will make us wait for these decades? What can we do during this time, or now, or what are you going to do yourself, to contribute to future wars, or to implement this strategy in its entirety? This is considered the homework of today's class, you can discuss it in the classroom, write a plan and give it to the class leader, and I will hand it over to the relevant departments for discussion if there are things that can be implemented. ”

This made these students' blood boil again. If your life plan is well written, you will leave a deep impression on the king. If the plan is left to the relevant departments for discussion, it means that their plan may affect the kingdom's strategy. This was the first time they had been involved in the country's major affairs.

Before Lin Ji turned off the projection, Lan Jianshi stared at the map among the excited classmates, and finally before the map was turned off, he thought of a question: Dongyi Zhubu!

The students discussed in the classroom and wrote out many plans and plans, which were published in the Kingdom Weekly newspaper "A Letter to the People of the Whole Country" shortly after they were handed over to Lin Ji. The text affirmed the news that Chizhong and the wolf people were in Guanzhong, and at the same time briefly analyzed the terrain in Guanzhong that was difficult to attack, stating that in order to avoid a large number of casualties, the kingdom decided not to do anything to the wolf people for the time being, and at the same time advised the wolf people to send the traitors to Huaxia.

Finally, the text calls on the Chinese people to strive for self-improvement in order to prevent the wolf people from attacking China. The army should actively prepare for war, the militia should practice seriously, the peasants should have a variety of grains, the workers should improve their production efficiency, the students should actively study, and young couples should have more children...... All aspects of society have to contribute their part and prepare for a possible war.

It can be said that leaving this enemy behind is just a direction for Huaxia to work towards. This will wake up the Chinese people to pay attention from time to time and work harder.

Many students of military academies saw the shadow of their own plan from here. Seemed particularly excited. After reading this newspaper, the only thing that was unhappy was Lan Jianshi, who had to clean the toilet every day. He felt that his proposal made more sense, but it was not reflected in the newspapers.

A month later, he habitually went to clean the toilet, and was ridiculed by his classmates, and he realized that his punishment period had expired. But he finished cleaning the toilet before returning to the classroom.

In the classroom, an active-duty officer was waiting for him: "You are the blue stone who sweeps the toilet?" ”

"Yes." Lan Jianshi had some expectation in his heart, and replied seriously.

"You're kind of funny. You've been drafted. Come with me. ”

"Where to go?" Lan Jianshi guessed something, and asked with the excitement in his heart.

"Black Mountain Tribe."

"Yay!" Lan Jianshi jumped three feet high and shouted at the same time. The focus of his plan was on the Montenegrin tribe, and he knew that his plan had been adopted and became the executor of his plan.

Lan Jianshi's classmates thought about the officer's words, and they all turned their heads to look at the cleaning tools that Lan Jianshi had dropped, and faintly wanted to fight.
