The hall was quiet all at once, and after a busy night, they were finally able to sit quietly on the comfortable cushions, and everyone finally had time to think about how much they had done today. At the beginning, they only conquered the new city, and all the officials had been promoted to the next level, and now they have defeated the first fortress in the northeast with 10,000 people, which has been besieged by hundreds of thousands of troops several times.

Thinking about it again, this time not only captured Liaodong City, but also grabbed nearly 10 million stone of grain, what a great credit it will be. As long as you hold Liaodong City, and wait for Your Majesty to go east again next year, there is no longer even a need to use millions of people to transport grain and grass from the Central Plains.

The generals and captains of the broken barracks in the hall are all making their own calculations, they have been promoted at least two levels since joining the broken barracks, and if they are promoted again, it will really be promoted to three or four levels in a year. This kind of thing, except for the general, Shen Guang, and Luo Lin, it is estimated that there will be no one else.

When I thought of the rewards after being promoted, the rewards, the gold and silver, and the fields, I almost laughed out loud. The last time they attacked Xincheng, each of them shared a lot of goods, and later His Majesty the Emperor rewarded them a lot. And this time he took Liaodong City, and the general promised to reward the generals with half of all the property in the city, how much should this be, maybe when they triumph next year, these goods will have to be pulled down by a carriage.

Li Jie was born in a family of Li Lords in Guanzhong, and he didn't attach much importance to the rewards in the broken military camp and the rewards after the siege. Although this is also a lot of wealth, he will not be short of money in this status. What he needs is power, the power of the elite army of the broken barracks. It's a pity that now, he is getting farther and farther away from the core of the broken barracks. Staying in this land of Liaodong, far away from the Son of Heaven, he couldn't fight Chen Kefu at all.

What he is most anxious for is to return to the capital as soon as possible and return to the Son of Heaven, when he has a way, and some backup to help him seize the right to command the army in the barracks. Now seeing that Chen Kefu's posture didn't want to leave, he immediately put down the teacup and said in a deep voice, "General, Your Majesty's will for us is to let us be here for the palace army, and for the army in about half a month, we can withdraw the army." ”

Chen Kefu smiled, "Then according to what General Li said, could it be that this Liaodong City that the brothers had laid down should be discarded?" Nearly 10 million stone of grain in the city was abandoned? Will this No. 1 fortress in the northeast, which devoured millions of soldiers and civilians in my Great Sui, once again be handed over to the Goguryeo people? Next year, we will come to this city with mountains of corpses and rivers of blood? ”

Li Jie sneered a few times, "Of course I didn't mean that, although we withdraw our troops, we can destroy all this." Didn't the Goguryeo people rely on this Liaodong City to resist my Great Sui Xiongshi? As long as we leave, Liaodong City, Xincheng and other cities will be burned, do you think that the Liao people will still be able to defend the army next year? ”

As for Li Jie's words, few of the generals in the hall were willing to agree, and even none of the officers who were temporarily selected from the auxiliary army and the people agreed with him. For most of the people, this conquest has become a huge burden for them. Every time they conquer Liao, they are strong, which one is not a broken fortune or even a broken family! Two consecutive expeditions to Liao have brought their lives to the brink of collapse, and no one wants to come back for a third time. And if, as Chen Kefu said, then even if there is a fourth expedition to Liao, there will be no need to transport grain and grass from the Central Plains, and they will no longer have to undertake these tasks of transporting grain for thousands of miles.

"General Li, you are treating the affairs of the military state as child's play, and your proposal is completely a lose-lose situation. According to what you said, the Liao people will definitely not be able to fight my Great Sui in the end, but my Great Sui will also suffer a great loss of national strength, completely killing 10,000 people and losing 3,000 themselves. Now that domestic disasters are continuous, the entire Central Plains has been full of thieves, and even those nobles with wolf ambitions such as Yang Xuangan have rebelled. Do you want the world to be more chaotic? Only by solving Goguryeo as soon as possible can the world return to peace, the people can regain stability, and the imperial court can free up its hands to calm the chaos in the Central Plains. ”

"Ask all of you, is there anyone who is willing to do this? Is anyone willing to let this chaos continue? Who doesn't want to solve Goguryeo as soon as possible, who doesn't want to put down the sword and pick up the hoe again, the relatives at home are looking forward to them, and the fields at home have grown grass. For the sake of the Great Sui, for the sake of His Majesty, and for the sake of our parents and relatives at home, we should not abandon Liaodong. ”,

"Never give up, fight to the end!" A group of Forces nouvelles officers shouted in unison.

Chen Kefu got up, his cold eyes scanned the audience, and he was not angry.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty did say that you could withdraw after holding on for half a month, but what Your Majesty said at that time was the worst-case scenario. In addition, His Majesty also personally told me that if we can seize the opportunity to defend the four cities of the new city, then we can defend it. Even, if we take Liaodong City, as long as we can hold it, then we can hold it until next year, when the army marches east again, as a base for the army to advance. ”

"For this reason, Your Majesty also gave the general's hand, if the military camp is broken and the city of Liaodong is taken, the general has the right to build ten new Yingyang Mansions in Liaodong, expand by 12,000 regular soldiers, and all the officers and generals of the ten Yingyang Mansions can be appointed by the general in advance and then sent to His Majesty for review. Ladies and gentlemen, we have the first fortress in the northeast, we also have the four new cities, we have enough food and grass, we have enough equipment, and we have hundreds of thousands of strong people, ready to arm. Why should we abandon the city? At this time, those who still abandon the city and return to China will be national thieves! All the officers and men of our army should spurn it! ”

Li Jie's face was cloudy for a while, sunny for a while, but he couldn't say a word of rebuttal. Chen Kefu occupies the righteousness, he has no reason at all, he can only sit there helplessly.

For Chen Kefu, he will never let go of the opportunity, his purpose is to completely leave Li Jie out of the margins, so that he can no longer participate in the core of the broken barracks.

"Ladies and gentlemen, since everyone is willing to stay, let's discuss how to deal with the Goguryeo soldiers and horses that will soon arrive. Let's discuss. ”

Everyone has a lot of ideas, especially the generals of the new army, who really want to come up with one idea at a time, and dare to come up with any kind of idea. But for Chen Kefu, what these people said, except for making him laugh, none of them said anything practical.

What came out were such as, leading the army to attack Pyongyang, what army came out together, according to the small Liaoshui to face the enemy, what the whole army retreated to Liaodong City. Some people even came up with the idea that they should take advantage of the current defeat of the Liao people to divide their soldiers and horses into several roads, or even dozens of roads, to capture the nearby large and small mountain cities in order to clear the surrounding enemies.

Chen Kefu, who was a little crying and laughing, suddenly seemed to have heard something very important, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to everyone, and the hall suddenly fell silent. Chen Kefu pointed to a battalion commander of the Sixth Division, who had just proposed to disperse his troops and horses to attack the large and small mountain cities near Liaodong City.

"You, yes, that's you, what did you just say? Again, more carefully. ”

The battalion commander was just a man who carried grain, but because he had some prestige among the people who carried grain in their team, he made him the commander of a battalion, with 400 people in charge, but in fact he was completely a big man who killed pigs in the countryside only because his stature was much stronger than others, and he was not even a government soldier. Just now, he saw that everyone was enjoying it, and he was busy saying a few words, but he didn't expect to be named by the general all of a sudden.

For a while, his face turned into a blank sheet of paper, standing there tremblingly, and a pair of hands that had been holding the pig-killing knife for many years didn't know where to put it, but just unconsciously wiped it on the placket. "General, the small, the small one is just talking nonsense for a while, and the small one knows his mistakes, and he doesn't dare anymore."

Chen Kefu smiled, "You don't have to be so nervous, this is a normal discussion, since you are an officer of the New Army, although it is only temporary, but every word should also be in line with the style of a soldier." In response to my question, you should say the last general or the lowly position, not the small one. Okay, you stand up straight and repeat what you just said! ”

When the butcher battalion commander saw that Chen Kefu didn't blame him, he hurriedly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I heard from the general just now that the Goguryeo army has almost been annihilated by our Sui army, and now there are less than 100,000 soldiers in the country who can fight, and there are still 70,000 or 80,000 troops in Pyongyang and on the border with Baekje and Silla. Now in addition to those armies, there are only 30,000 or 40,000 people in the big cities of Liaodong, such as Buyeo, Beisha, Wugu, and China, and these are all second-line troops with little experience like Xincheng at the beginning. And there are more small mountain cities near Liaodong City, where the Liao army is dozens or hundreds of people, I think we can take advantage of the shortage of Liao soldiers and horses, when the soldiers and horses are being gathered, we can divide our troops to attack those small cottages. Although there are not many people in each small mountain town, if we destroy them all, it will be quite a lot. Without these trained soldiers, the Liao people would come again, and they would just be newly recruited soldiers, so there was no need to worry about it. ”

Chen Kefu closed his eyes and pondered for a while, then said with a smile, "That's a good point, although it's a little whimsical, but it's also really brainy." Knowing and analyzing the information in hand, judging the dynamics of the enemy army, he made his own countermeasures. This is already a general's thinking, very good. What did you do before? How can you think of any of this? ”

"Back to the general's words, the last general Zhang Hei, who lives in Zhuo County, is the descendant of Zhang Yide, the general of Shu in the Three Kingdoms, and the last general has always inherited the craftsmanship of the ancestors and slaughtered in Zhuo County. This time, I received the task of transporting grain to Liaodong, and because of some prestige in the team, I made him the battalion commander of the Sixth Division. ”

Chen Kefu smiled, he didn't expect that there were still people who claimed to be Zhang Fei's descendants, but he and that Zhang Fei were really professional. smiled and said, "Yes, in the future, you should always think about it, and when you think about it right, then you, the temporary battalion commander, will be able to become a real five-grade eagle general." ”

Everyone burst into laughter, and they were quite pleasing to the butcher battalion commander.

"Ladies and gentlemen, although what he just said is an unfeasible plan, but according to his reminder, General Ben thought of a good idea, everyone, if this strategy is successful, then we will increase the hope of success in defending Liaodong!"

Keep asking for tickets!!!
