Chapter 163 After Hardships, Finally Becoming a Phoenix, Years of Playing Ending (3)
Fei Gaozhang was the youngest and longest person here, and he was the head of the local civil officials in Youzhou, and he was the first to speak: "Since Yelu Abaoji established the Khitan Kingdom in the West Building, over the years, he has never stopped invading my Youyun Land, and Youyun has been suffering from it for decades. The border land, not to mention how much property it lost, is the population, which has also been plundered countless by Khitan barbarians. When Li Cunxian was the old general of Lu Long, Lu Long had the ambition to attack the grassland, but Lu Long was weak at that time and could not do this. Since the commander led the Hundred Battles Army into Youzhou, not only for my Tang Ke to restore Pingzhou, but also repeatedly defeated the Khitan, so that the Khitan barbarians did not dare to go south and herd horses in the past two years, Lu Long had to have a moment of peace, can greatly prosper Tuntian, open mines and expand the army, and now Lu Long Taoguang has been obscure for a long time, it is the time to be ashamed. And because the Bohai State is a military commander and a foreign alliance, and now Yelu Abaoji is attacking the Bohai Kingdom, as long as the military commander gives an order, Lu Long will definitely go all out to support the great cause of the military commander! ”
With Fei Gaozhang's statement, civil officials at all levels in Youzhou should be reconciled.
Among the civil officials, in addition to the local officials in Youzhou headed by Fei Gaozhang, and then the henchmen group brought by Li Congjing, Mo Li, Wei Dao and others have long known Li Congjing's plans and plans, and have been preparing for this for a long time. Now that Fei Gaozhang and others have agreed, there is no problem for civil officials.
On the side of the generals, the Hundred Battles Army and the New Army don't need to say much, just talk about the Lu Long Army led by Li Yanchao. Since Li Cunxian stepped down from his post as the envoy of Youzhou Jiedu and resigned for retirement, Lu Longjun was the army under Li Congjing, and they followed Li Congjing through the battles of Pingzhou and Yingzhou, and they had already returned to Li Congjing. If civilian officials may have any other thoughts, for soldiers, as long as the commander-in-chief gives an order, they can go out to fight. Therefore, Li Yanchao immediately said that Lu Longjun was willing to be the vanguard.
There was no objection from the crowd, which was expected by Li Congjing. Li Congjing has been in Youzhou for so long, if there are still people who stand up against his proposition at such a time of war, it can only show that he has failed to do this festival, which is obviously an impossible situation at the moment.
After the opinions on sending troops are unified, the next thing to discuss is the theme of today's meeting, that is, how to support the Bohai State. This is related to Li Congjing's subordinates in military strategy and tactics, but at this time, there is no need to tell everyone present, and the Khitan army has not yet been mobilized, so how Li Congjing will arrange his troops will have to wait until then. What needs to be determined now is logistics and the like.
"The autumn harvest is approaching, this year's weather is better than last year's, and because of the foundation of last year's tuntian, this year's autumn harvest should be no problem, and the grain that can be stored in the autumn harvest must be enough to support my army." Li Congjing looked at Xingwei Xingming and Ye Lumin, "Lulong's seven major tuntians, including small tuntians and fishing grounds in various places, are expected to achieve this autumn's grain harvest?" ”
Wei Xingming and Ye Lumin said: "At least twice as much as last year." ”
"That's very good." Li Congjing's head, the grain harvested by Lu Long in autumn last year filled the granary of Youzhou, and forced Li Congjing to temporarily increase the warehouse, since the grain harvest this autumn is twice that of last year, presumably even if the war is longer, Lu Long can afford to supply.
"In addition to food, there is ordnance." Li Congjing looked at Wei Dao again, "How much is the stock of ordnance in the Lulong Mansion's treasury?" ”
Wei Dao got up and left his seat, arched his hand and said, "Conventional armor and weapons are enough for Lu Long to expand his army by another 30,000. Large-scale city-defending equipment is enough to increase the combat power of the border towns, and large-scale engineering equipment is enough to consume a hundred battles. "Last year, Lu Long's accumulated conventional armor weapons were enough for Li Congjing to recruit 20,000 soldiers, but Li Congjing only recruited 10,000 soldiers, which is the amount of 10,000 left. This is not much, it seems that there is no increase in production, but it is not. Because last year's 20,000 sets of armaments, a large part of which were originally in the treasury of Lulong's mansion. But this year's 20,000 sets are really new.
Li Congjing is also very satisfied with this, although Lu Long can no longer expand the army now, but that is when the war has not started, once the war starts, the front-line soldiers have casualties, and they need to be replenished. In addition, in any war, there will be large-scale attrition of armaments and ordnance, and these will also need to be replaced. With these 30,000 sets of armaments, Li Congjing undoubtedly has a lot of confidence to launch a big war.
After talking about military rations and armaments, Li Congjing asked Zhang Ziyun, "How much has you accumulated in two years of business profits?" ”
Zhang Ziyun sat down and said: "It is enough for 50,000 troops to consume for more than 10,000 years, and 10,000 soldiers will be compensated." "The so-called bereavement pension refers to the financial compensation given to the family after the soldier is killed, and the war consumption includes clothing, medicine and other items in the battle.
If this price is converted into a specific number of times, it is definitely an astronomical amount. It can be seen that today's Li Congjing not only has the power and army in his hands, but he is also very rich.
The above three are the top priorities of logistics support, but logistics support does not only include these aspects.
After the statistics are completed, it is the allocation and distribution of logistics materials.
The so-called soldiers and horses have not moved the grain and grass first, and the army has not yet left Youzhou, but all kinds of logistics materials have to be transported to the front line in advance. In today's Lulong Kyushu, how much these materials are transported to those cities and border passes, how much each city and border pass transports, and how to allocate them after the war starts, how to allocate them if they do not meet the distribution of materials before, and how to raise and transport them from all over the country when the materials are exhausted, these are all issues that need to be clearly planned before the war.
These problems involve the flow of countless materials, the cooperation and coordination between various officials, and it is not a simple matter to calculate and distribute them clearly. It was late at night to solve these problems.
In any case, today's goal was achieved, and Li Congjing also let these civil officials and military generals go back.
Most of the people left, and Li Congjing left Mo Li and the others.
The war is about to start, everything is complicated, now not only Li Congjing, Mo Li Congjing's right-hand men, but also can't afford to have a complete rest time, as the leaders standing in the most part of this war, they naturally have endless things to do.
"I got the news this morning that Duli Town was captured by the Khitan." Li Congjing sat back in his place, motioned to Mo Li, Wang Pu, Tao Yaoyao and others to sit at will, rubbed his sour eyebrows and said, "The army of the Bohai Kingdom in Duli Town was surrounded and annihilated by the Khitan, and almost no one escaped. Li Siping led the army to retreat north and turned to defend Bo Shan City. ”
This is not good news, the atmosphere is a little heavy, Mo Li said: "Duli Town has been besieged for several months, and Li Siping can't break through the Khitan army to save it, and it will be a matter of time before the city is broken." Moreover, now Yelu Abaoji is preparing to pour the country's troops to attack the Bohai Sea, and Yelu Xiangyin, who is sitting in Liaodong, naturally wants to exert his strength to capture the town of Duli in the urn, which is really the inevitable development of the situation. ”
Li Congjing moved his hands and feet, "Duli Town was broken, and the achievements of the Bohai State in Liaodong came to naught, leaving only Bo Fan City, which is close to the border, can barely hold it." It's not that I'm sorry for the results of the Bo Navy in Liaodong, after all, whether it is Daming'an or the Bohai Navy, through the first battle of Liaodong, they have already gained enough. Now I am thinking about how to play the game of chess in Liaodong and Bohai in the future. ”
"One of the greatest meanings of supporting the Bohai State for us is to keep the battlefield outside the borders when the war starts. Whether Liaodong is lost or not is not too important to us. What matters is how Daming'an deals with the current situation. Wang Pu took over.
Li Congjing saw that Wang Pu had something to say, so he asked, "In this way, Wenbo, you have a plan?" ”
Wang Pu bowed slightly, "In my opinion, Daming'an has withdrawn the troops invested in the Liaodong battlefield and deployed them to the western front of the Bohai Kingdom to deal with the Khitan attack. After all, for the Bohai Kingdom, their most elite army is the army that has experienced the war in Liaodong, and good steel is used on the blade, and the Bohai Navy in Liaodong should deal with the Khitan army. ”
Li Congjing nodded and asked Mo Li, "What do you think?" ”
"That's what I mean." Mo Li agreed.
"Since this is the case, I will repair the book to tell Da Ming'an, tell him the latest movements in the Khitan country, and let him prepare to deal with Yelu Abaoji's personal expedition." Li Congjing said.
At this point, we can see the urgency of the current situation. The battle between the Khitan and the Bohai Sea is finally close at hand.
Li Congjing met Daming'an in Khitan that year, and the two thought that they had formed an alliance with common interests, and Li Congjing helped Daming'an to seek the country, and it has been several years. All the plans of the two, whether it was to help Daming'an take power or to help the Bohai Navy enhance its combat strength, were because they knew that the Khitan was going to destroy the Bohai Sea.
Wang Pu bowed slightly, "In my opinion, Daming'an has withdrawn the troops invested in the Liaodong battlefield and deployed them to the western front of the Bohai Kingdom to deal with the Khitan attack. After all, for the Bohai Kingdom, their most elite army is the army that has experienced the war in Liaodong, and good steel is used on the blade, and the Bohai Navy in Liaodong should deal with the Khitan army. ”
Li Congjing nodded and asked Mo Li, "What do you think?" ”
"That's what I mean." Mo Li agreed.
"Since this is the case, I will repair the book to tell Da Ming'an, tell him the latest movements in the Khitan country, and let him prepare to deal with Yelu Abaoji's personal expedition." Li Congjing said.
