Looking at the map on the table, it was his own family who was present, Li Jing quickly entered the state and swept around the map, "You all come over and take a look, how should we act in the land of the five states, when we are armed?" ”

Zhao Mosheng checked it carefully, and said in a low voice, "Lord, our department defends Xinzhou, with the main force to hold on to Xinxian, and the rest of the departments are guarding along the river, but the south is finally the gathering of the imperial army, and the three battalion heads come down, it is inevitable to take care of one and lose the other, and the good and bad in the army are uneven, I am afraid that if the main force of the imperial court goes north, it will still be difficult to resist." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Previously, if there were one or two thousand elite officers and soldiers like Ai Wannian, he would be powerless to resist with one or two thousand soldiers, plus Yangqu Jiancheng, which was nearby, after the officers and troops were stationed, they would definitely set up heavy guards, and the army was on the side, where would he dare to slack off for half a minute.

"It doesn't matter, the land of Xinzhou, the county seat under its jurisdiction, with Xin County, Dingxiang as the first priority, the head of the battalion under your command, and then the soldiers adapted from the garrison battalion, I promise you to command three main barracks, two auxiliary battalions and the rest of the soldiers and horses, and also make up the number of eight thousand, in the future, from the logistics department of the begging army every month to allocate grain and grass, not to disturb the local aspect!"

Li Jing thought for a while, and felt that the armies really could no longer do their own things, even if they were released for one term, the specific amount of soldiers and the appointment and dismissal of generals must not be allowed to be touched by the generals of the army, otherwise each established an independent kingdom, wouldn't it be easy to gather people to resist his orders?

In this way, it is just right to take advantage of the situation to increase the number of places for the armies below, and by the way, to withdraw the right of each army to recruit and appoint generals on its own, and only need to firmly control all the logistics of the soldiers in their hands, and cut off the generals' interference in the localities.

This is also the original intention of Li Jing's efforts to promote the replacement of firearms in the whole army, that is, once the logistics of the whole army are mastered, and the supply of grain, grass, gunpowder and ammunition is no longer supplied, these so-called large armies will be wiped out in an instant, and the greatest scourge will only be a temporary chaos party.

"Zheng Renbao, the army under your command has also been expanded to 8,000 soldiers, stationed in Dai County in the north, and changed the defense of Guo Sheng's department that moved westward, and in the future, to prevent the official army of Datong Town from going south, you and Zhao Mosheng are one south and one north, the most important thing is not to relax."

"Whoa!"

Li Jing pointed to the map again, and planned a little, "In the future, the pro-guard brigade will be stationed in Chunxian County, Ningwu, the teaching brigade will be stationed in Yuanping, and the elite of the whole army will be trained in the center, and the cavalry brigade will be stationed in Ninghua, as the rescue guide of the whole army. ”

"Lord, if this is the case, is Li Mao's army too thin in its jurisdiction over the West Road?"

Li Denggao was originally in charge of logistics, and Li Mao was his biological son, so he should not interfere too much in military affairs, but seeing Li Jing's distribution method, Li Mao's weakest brigade actually guarded against the three states of Qilan, Baode, and Yongning, and he couldn't help but let go.

"It doesn't matter, I have ordered Guo Sheng, just wait for Zheng Renbao's army to arrive, hand over in a moment, and after the reorganization of Chunxian County with the main force, go west along Ningwu Pass, and stay in Baode Prefecture in the future, and guard against Shaanxi soldiers and horses, Tan Wu led the troops to Wutai on the way, and will be stationed in Lanzhou in the future, so that the five brigades of the army, each with its own station, with an independent town of soldiers and horses, in the center of the response, no matter where there is something, there are more than 10,000 troops to deal with, enough to support the rescue of soldiers and horses from all walks of life."

Li Jing's plan was to station an army in various directions, rely on the local area to establish a solid defense line, gradually gain a firm foothold and develop and grow, and wait until the equipment was renovated and the elite was trained, and then the opportunity to turn the face again with the imperial court, cross the Yellow River to the west, capture the whole province of Shaanxi, and then wave the army to the east, occupy Xuanda and Shanxi Town, overlook the north, or take advantage of the situation to go south to attack the Central Plains, or go directly north to Dingding Qiankun.

Li Denggao calculated for a while, shook his head and said, "Each brigade has expanded to 8,000 people, the five brigades have 40,000 troops, and the lord himself is in charge of 20,000 troops, totaling more than 60,000 people, but now there are less than 300,000 households, and there are only one million tenants and civilians, and the area is only five states and ten counties, how can they be fed?!" ”

He couldn't help but convince him, "Now I don't think about looting, there is no money and food to replenish it, if the lord forcibly trains such a force, one is afraid of the court, and it will definitely cut the army sooner or later, if it does not obey, the war will start again, poisoning the people, and the other is that the financial resources are tight to feed such a large army, and according to the lord's plan, I am afraid that it will be no less than a million, and the money and food will not be enough, and sooner or later it will fall apart!" ”

This is still the population that Li Jing plundered from several counties in the south of Taiyuan Prefecture and Pingding Prefecture, otherwise, according to the population of the original five prefectures, it is even less than one million, but even so, 100 people feed an army of 60,000, how can this be done, sooner or later there will be chaos, after all, the output of land is limited, and money and food cannot be helped.

"Don't worry, now that we have taken refuge in the imperial court, the road is open, no longer blocked, there are all kinds of inputs, and we are afraid that there will be no silver and grain coming in?" Li Jing is not worried at all, there are millions of people under his command now, and some skills that he did not dare to reveal in the past are hidden, but now he is deeply rooted, and he is still afraid of others peeping?

As for the food of ordinary people, isn't there a large-scale promotion of sweet potatoes, and then people will be sent to Fujian and Guangdong to search for potatoes and corn that have supported the so-called prosperous Kangqian era, and everything will be over.

As long as there is no shortage of food, the army will be firmly in its own hands, and no matter who will attack at that time, it will have to be weighed and weighed.

In this way, only the yield of potatoes and corn was roughly said, which suddenly startled everyone present to gasp for a while, and Li Denggao felt that he was dreaming, "My good man!" A divine object with a yield of 1,000 catties per mu, the lord is really a god! ”

"The sweet potatoes that were cultivated before also belong to this list, if it is a good life, it is not enough to worry about the yield of three or five hundred catties per mu, although it can not be fed and clothed, but it is not a problem to barely survive, so let's collect more money and grain below, and then reclaim the military tun, a variety of sweet potatoes, this thing is not expensive, and it is enough to pick it up after practice."

Li Jing painted a beautiful blueprint on the one hand, and continued to bewitch everyone, "Think about it, if all the output of every mu of land is handed over for military use, and the potatoes and corn produced per mu are allocated to the peasants to eat, barely feeding the whole army, is there enough food?" ”

"If that's the case, the 100,000 army won't worry!" No matter who it is, just think about it carefully in your mind, although the output of Shanxi's territory is not much, but millions of people have cultivated it, and the annual income is probably an astronomical amount. (To be continued.) )
