Zhang San first ordered someone to hang up a map of Asia, this is a copy version, the Ryukyu region and parts of the Great Song Dynasty have been surveyed and mapped and re-marked, and other areas can only be simply drawn according to the oral accounts of the merchants.

Then Zhang San told everyone the news that Yan Qing had sent back in the past few months and Yan Qing's opinions, everyone had different expressions when they heard it, Wen Huanzhang frowned, Xu Guanzhong fell into thought, Le He was calculating, Gan Xingtai was a little dumbfounded, Yang Tai and Zhao Yunlong were happy.

Zhang San opened his mouth and said: "Of course, there are no tribes there, Hulun Lake is surrounded by the eight tribes of the enemy, the north is the Chazha Thorn Department, and the west is under the jurisdiction of the Meili Emergency Department, but the management between these tribes is weak, and the internal control is chaotic, so let everyone come over today, one is to discuss whether this plan is feasible or not, and the second is to see how everyone can cooperate to do this thing well if it is feasible." ”

Xu Guanzhong asked first: "Back to the king, whether the minister thinks this matter is feasible or not depends on how big the scale is, if there are only 10,000 people, there is naturally no problem, if it is more than 10,000 people, then you have to deal with it carefully, if it exceeds 50,000, I am afraid it will affect the overall situation." ”

Wen Huanzhang nodded and said: "Although there are many nomads in the north, but if they are not of our race, their hearts will be different, but if a large number of Han people are flooded, I am afraid that they will be jealous of the Liao State, in case we cultivate their combat methods and provide weapons, if we lose control at that time, I am afraid it will be self-defeating." ”

Le He nodded and said: "There are many people, the pressure on logistics and transportation is very high, after all, Heilongjiang is in the hinterland of Liao, it is difficult to hide, it will inevitably be discovered after a long time, and the ice in the north for several months has interrupted the transportation and supply, and it will be troublesome then." ”

Yang Tai and Zhao Yunlong were very disappointed when they heard everyone say so many objections, seeing that such a good opportunity slipped through their fingers like this, cavalry is the ultimate weapon of land warfare, who doesn't want to have more as much as possible.

Zhang San nodded and said: "What everyone said is very reasonable, blind expansion will indeed affect the development of Ryukyu, the northern peoples are indeed wild and untamable, and logistics is also a big problem." ”

Zhang San looked at everyone's expressions, especially the disappointment in the eyes of Yang Tai and Zhao Yunlong, Zhang San said, "But! Everyone needs to know what we're doing! We are going to fight, we are going to destroy the Liao State, the Song State and other countries, this matter is not a simple matter, if it can be done simply, someone would have done it a long time ago, and it would be our turn? ”

Zhang San looked at everyone and said: "The Liao State will definitely be our enemy, the north must be included in our rule, we must solve the problem of the nomads, and we will have to face it sooner or later. ”

Zhang San looked at Wen Huanzhang and then at everyone and said: "I told Wen Huanzhang when I was in Tokyo that most of our Han people's external troubles come from the north, and half of the Han people's military and national strength are consumed in the north.

Since the Spring and Autumn Period, the Great Wall has been built, and the Qin and Han have sent elite border troops to garrison the border, but since the Han Dynasty, the Han people have been reduced to pigs and dogs, and the people are not one of them, and the Han people are about to be wiped out.

Tang has the Anshi Rebellion, and there are Hu people several times to break Chang'an, after the Zhou Dynasty Shi Jingjiao cut Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures to the Song Dynasty hundred years of border troubles, the north into the Liao pasture, the Great Wall city became a haven for nomads.

We are destined to rise up, and we must be ambitious! Aim big! To lay a thousand-year-old foundation for the Han people, we are now discussing how we can gain a foothold in the north. ”

For everyone, it was true that at the beginning, only the difficulties were considered, after all, now everyone has a family and a business, and it is inevitable that the courage is not as great as before, and since there is a stable development of the Ryukyus base for a few years, the idea of taking risks is weak.

But when everyone heard what Zhang San said, they immediately ignited their fighting spirit again, yes, what they did was a rebellion that lost their heads, and they could lose their heads at any time, how could they be afraid of difficulties. Zhang San's words made everyone fall into deep thought.

Xu Guanzhong nodded happily after hearing these and said: "In this case, then we can implement it in stages, it's not impossible, in the first stage, we can set up a small cavalry of one or two thousand people, such a tribe is enough to gain a foothold in the local area, and then develop commerce and trade to accumulate strength." ”

Xu Guanzhong said: "In that case, others will not pay attention, the second step is that we can set up a few more such tribes, each tribe will arrange a cavalry regiment, and then attack each other to create chaos."

And then with the help of this chaos to continue to absorb more manpower and tribes, it is common for ethnic minorities in the north to attack and crusade against each other, as long as we do not gather large-scale cavalry, and several tribes of three or five thousand cavalry have contradictions with each other, then the Liao State will definitely not look at it.

In the end, when our strength is enough, we can go south in one fell swoop to lay the victory, but most of our Ryukyu soldiers are southerners, and I heard that the north is cold, and I am afraid that the soldiers will not be able to bear it. ”

Wen Huanzhang also nodded: "In this way, there will be no pressure to build a city, but if you send cavalry in the past, will you learn the local language or let those nomads learn Chinese?" If you use Chinese, will it arouse suspicion?

Le He also nodded and said: "In this way, the pressure on logistics can be much less, and you only need to transport some weapons and necessary materials such as salt and tea." But how to solve the security problem in Heilongjiang. ”

Gan Xingtai finally had the opportunity to interject and hurriedly said: "The navy's 2,000-stone old warship can take on the escort mission, most of the northern nomads are not familiar with the nature of the water, and they use rafts or sheepskin rafts to cross the river, so there is no problem with the safety of the water." ”

Lehe nodded and said: "In that case, the transportation problem will be solved, and the logistics department will have no problem, but how can we ensure that the emergency transportation can arrive smoothly during the winter freeze?" ”

Xu Guanzhong said: "The north is different from us, everyone basically does not go out in winter, and there will be no war, so as long as there are enough supplies, everyone basically winters in tents in winter, so there is no need to transport in winter unless it is urgent." ”

It was the first time for Ling Zhen to participate in such a meeting, but when it came to transportation, he thought of what Zhang San had explained to him a while ago, and hurriedly said: "According to the king's meaning, we have studied a kind of horseshoe, which can trot on the ice without slipping, but it is easy to wear out, and we are looking for a big dog to try to transport goods by dog sled, and now a large number of goods cannot be solved, but if it is a small batch of emergency transportation, there is no problem." ”

After listening to this, everyone's eyes lit up, and they looked at Zhang San and then at Ling Zhen, the presence of the head of the General Armament Department has always been very low, but he has done a lot of great things unconsciously, and he can be said to have contributed to today's achievements in Ryukyu.

So at the beginning, Ling Zhenneng was promoted to one of the four headquarters bosses, and now when everyone is worried about transportation, he already has a solution, and from his words, it seems that Zhang San has long intended to pass through the north and has long been preparing for this matter.

Zhang San didn't explain, but moved his gaze to Zhao Yunlong and asked, "Can the cavalry overcome the weather factors?" Recently, there is new news from the horse farm in Beihai Province? ”
