Zhou Quan was reviewing the plan, a temporary plan prepared for him by his military department.

For him, although the civil strife in Liao was broken, and it was likely to cause major changes in the situation in East Asia, it was also an opportunity.

After receiving the news, he immediately ordered his subordinates to draw up a plan for the military service.

After the Xiaguan Covenant, Zhou Quan reorganized his subordinates, not to mention himself, but the supreme leader of the entire chamber of commerce, with two institutions, the Prime Minister's Office and the Military Office, and the Prime Minister's Office was responsible for the affairs of various governors, including Jeju and Liuqiu, which were completely in his hands, as well as the concession in Goryeo. The Admissions Service is responsible for all military affairs, whether it is the army or navy.

In addition to the Prime Minister's Office, which is in charge of civil affairs, commerce, and workers' and peasants' construction, and the Military Affairs Department, which is responsible for army building and external communication, there are also some smaller institutions. What they have in common is that most of the members are array teenagers promoted by Zhou Quan.

The Prime Minister's Office is now headed by Gu Cheng, and the Military Office is headed by Ye Chu. After the end of the war in Japan, Ye Chu returned to Jeju to gain experience in exchange for others.

The report that Ye Chu handed over to Zhou Quan contained three sets of plans.

The first set of plans is to take the opportunity to capture Yanjing and the surrounding areas, Ye Chu analyzed the pros and cons, the advantage is that if Yanjing is captured, then Zhou Quan can immediately have a territory of 3 million people in his hands, and if he expands his armaments, he can have nearly 100,000 troops within a year. The disadvantage is that they may face the dual pressure of Liao, Song, Jin and Song, and the people under their rule may not be truly obedient.

Although Zhou Quan also has his own ambitions, and in front of Ye Chu and other cronies, he does not hide this ambition very much, but this plan is obviously not in line with Zhou Quan's intentions.

The second set of plans is to pick up Yu Liyan, Concubine Wen, Yelu Ma Ge, etc., and leave directly to avoid too much hostility with Liao, so as to prevent affecting the trade routes of the Donghai Chamber of Commerce in Liao. The pros and cons of this plan, Ye Chu and others also analyzed it very clearly, they gained very little, and at the same time paid very little, this is the most trouble-free plan, but it is also a plan that misses the opportunity.

What the Military Department really wanted to approve of Zhou Quan was the third plan: to use Wuqing as a base to plunder the population near Yanjing.

Previously, Zhou Quan took advantage of the famine to take tens of thousands of people from the vicinity of Yanjing in Liao, which was also one of his first sources of manpower on Jeju Island.

But compared to the three million people around Yanjing, he got too little.

Now he has entered a new period of expansion into the Liuqiu, and there are as many as twelve strongholds along the coast of Liuqiu, and they are heading inland along the river, where more people are needed.

In addition, the situation is changing too quickly, and he needs more reliable sources of soldiers--the working population on the other side of the country, and he can also use slaves from the Wa Kingdom, Goryeo, and even ghost slaves sent by the Great Cannibals, but the source of soldiers is not good for these people.

Moreover, in the plan of the military department, within three to five years, Luzon will be expanded, and a large number of people will also be needed.

Therefore, the Military Affairs Department believes that taking advantage of the civil strife in Liao, Jiangwuqing and several counties to the north will be the target of this plundering population.

"100,000 people are the target ...... of this plan" Seeing this, Zhou Quan circled 100,000, and then wrote two words on the side: conservative.

How is 100,000 enough!

If Jeju and Liuqiu are all mobilized, it is enough to mobilize hundreds of large and small ships, and nearly 100,000 people can be transported from Wuqing in just one trip.

Nowadays, it is not comparable to the time when the foundation was founded, a few large ships seized from the Koreans were regarded as treasures, and the two shipyards in Haeju and Jeju had to launch a huge ship every month on average, which was not a small boat, but a huge ship that could carry three or five hundred people on the sea for half a month, and if you wanted to squeeze some more, it was possible to carry eight hundred people.

There are also three huge ships with a full load displacement of 20,000 hu, the scale of which is already larger than the "Shenzhou" built when Shenzong sent an envoy to Goryeo, and it is not difficult for one ship to transport a thousand people, if the limit loading capacity is calculated, it only takes less than half a month to sail to Jeju anyway, then it can carry 2,000 people!

Moreover, Wuqing was close to the Great Song Dynasty and crossed the Yellow River, which was the Song State, and Zhou Quan did not have to be so troublesome to send people back to Jeju, as long as the people were placed in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, such as Dengzhou or Laizhou in Shandong, the Liao people did not dare to cross the border to attack, after all, this is not the past, and the Liao army could cross the border at will and come to the Song State to "fight the grass valley".

Thinking of this, Zhou Quan wrote two more words: thirty.

If 300,000 people can be taken from the Nanjing Road of the Liao State, if this goal can be achieved, then the entire Liuqiu can be completely civilized. Those cannibal natives have no chance to perish except to stay in the deep mountains and old forests and wait for destruction.

I put down my pen when suddenly there was a soft knock on the door.

Zhou Quan thought it was a guard, so he didn't raise his head, and called "come in".

A moment later, the sound of light footsteps came to his side with a fragrant breeze.

Zhou Quan put down his pen with a smile and raised his eyes to look at Yu Liyan.

During the day, he personally went to the beach to greet Yu Liyan, the two had not seen each other for a long time, and there should have been endless words, but when they met, except for the initial excitement and hugging each other, they didn't say anything next.

A faint sense of strangeness lingered between the two, Zhou Quan was fine, but Yu Liyan felt frightened.

She has "lost" her father and can no longer lose Zhou Quan.

"Zhou Lang." She said softly.

Zhou Quan waved his hand, but not at her, but at the guards who were probing their brains at the door.

The guards could let Yu Liyan enter the door, but it was impossible for her to get close to Zhou Quan like this, seeing Zhou Quan waving his hand, they retreated with a slight smile, and then closed the door.

"Yu Liyan, sit." Zhou Quan pointed to the opposite side of himself.

Yu Li was angry.

She didn't come here at night to sit opposite Zhou Quan like a guest!

She is still the same Yu Liyan as she was at the beginning, so she directly moved the chair opposite Zhou Quan, dragged it to Zhou Quan's side, and then sat side by side with Zhou Quan, leaning very close, pouting, and glaring at Zhou Quan angrily.

"What's wrong?" Her appearance coincided with Yu Liyan in Zhou Quan's memory, Zhou Quan laughed, and his voice unconsciously softened.

"You've changed!"

"Where have I changed......

"It's just changed, when I was detained in Shangjing, although I couldn't see you, I felt that you were very close, right here!" Yu Liyan pointed to his bulging chest, and then said: "But now, you are by my side, I can reach it with my hand, but I feel that I can't see you anymore!" ”

Her temperament was originally to dare to love and hate, and she would naturally say whatever she thought of, and when these words came out, Zhou Quan's heart suddenly shook.

This time I went north, did I want more Yu Liyan, or did I want more people near Yanjing?

I feel that Yu Liyan is drifting apart, is it really because the two have not been together for a long time, or because of ...... Have your mindset changed?

"When I was on the boat, my mother asked me, what kind of person are you, will you be like my father, I said absolutely not, because what I like is a hero of the world, he will like a younger and more beautiful Han woman, he will dislike me for my bad temper, will quarrel with me and even fight, but as long as I need it, he will definitely appear in front of me...... You say, are you like that? ”

From Yu Liyan's words, Zhou Quan heard a tremble.

This is fear, Zhou Quan suddenly understood what the problem was. Even if Yu Liyan is no longer like a "savage girlfriend", her temperament is spicy and bold in this era, but she is a woman after all.

She can not be afraid of death, but she cannot be afraid of losing her lover.

Therefore, Zhou Quan stood up, let himself get as close to Yu Liyan as possible, and then stretched out his hand: "You touch it." ”

Yu Liyan reached out and touched him inexplicably.

"I'm here when you need me." Zhou Quan smiled and said, "It's a real person, not a fake!" ”

Yu Yeyan suddenly smiled, but her eyes were still red, she jumped up from her seat, and as many times before, she threw herself directly into Zhou Quan's arms.

"I'm not a princess anymore." After a while, she said in a thick, nasal voice.

"That's right, if you're a princess, I can't afford to pay the bride price."

"My father doesn't want me anymore!"

"That's better, you can elope with me, I'm not afraid that your father won't allow it."

"You...... You...... You wish I had come to this point? ”

"If you want to listen to the truth, then it is true, Yu Liyan, you are not at this point, our affairs, I don't know how long it will drag on. Yu Liyan, here in our Great Song Dynasty, the emperor wants to get a daughter of the clan to marry me under the pretext that I haven't married yet! ”

Zhou Quan's words made the original affection suddenly disappear.

"He dares!" Yu Liyan glared at Zhou Quan angrily: "I want my father to send troops...... Dispatch ...... Whining! ”

Zhou Quan rarely saw Yu Liyan crying, but this time Yu Liyan was really crying in his arms.

She habitually wanted to say that she wanted her father to send troops to attack the Great Song Dynasty, but as soon as the words came out, she realized that it was different from the past.

Zhou Quan realized that he had lost his words, Yu Liyan at this time was the most sensitive time, he comforted him for a long time, and Yu Liyan stopped crying.

Just cried, Yu Liyan was a little embarrassed, looked around, and saw that the house where Zhou Quan lived was very simple, not her princess's mansion, there were only two quilts on the couch, the bedroom and the office study were connected together, and her eyes were slightly red.

She knows that Zhou Quan is actually a person who can enjoy it very well.

"I'll leave for a while." She said goodbye to Zhou Quan.

Zhou Quan watched her go out, and heard her whisper something outside, but she didn't hear it very clearly, Zhou Quan smiled and put away the documents on the table, and it was best not to show Yu Liyan the things on it.

Otherwise, she would have to be cranky again.

Before packing up his things, Zhou Quan smelled the fragrance and filled his nose again, and a pair of soft hands wrapped around his waist from his hands.

"Aren't you going to leave for a while?" Zhou Quan was a little surprised, why did he come back so quickly.

"I let my maid go back first, and tonight, I will stay with you." Yu Liyan said in a greasy voice on his back, but he didn't let him turn around and see her face.

Zhou Quan's body trembled, and an indescribable joy permeated his heart! (To be continued.) )
