From White Horse City to Spiegel City, it can be said that it is a long way.

Coupled with bad weather, hindered by wind and snow along the way.

Wait until the urgent report arrives day and night in Spiegel City.

Twelve days have passed.

After reading the battle report sent from thousands of miles.

Luo Ji, who had just made a lot of money, the joy in his heart disappeared in an instant.

"Bang!"

The palm of his hand slapped heavily on his desk, and the dull sound echoed in the council hall.

It attracted the attention of the guards and Lu Yang.

looked at Luo Ji with a gloomy face.

Fools know that something is definitely wrong.

After pondering in his heart for a while, Lu Yang finally took a deep breath, and then spoke hard......

"Your Majesty, what happened?"

"See for yourself."

While speaking, Luo Ji directly slapped the urgent report on He Liang's body.

He Liang, who received the urgent report, hurriedly trotted to Lu Yang's desk and handed over the urgent report.

When Lu Yang saw it, his face also changed.

For a while, I didn't know what to say.

Because the content of this urgent report not only involves political affairs, but also involves the military!

If the two sides cannot reach a consensus, they will not be able to negotiate a result.

"He Liang, summon Guo Jia and Zhou Yi to enter the palace to discuss matters!"

The outer hall of the audience is the outer hall, and the back hall of the council is the inner hall.

In today's council hall, the left and right sides under Luo Ji's main seat have already been placed one by one.

On the left is the civilian seat, and on the right is the military attaché seat.

After Guo Jia and Zhou Yi arrived, they naturally sat on the right side.

Among the civil seats on the left, only Lu Yang, who is currently qualified to enter the inner hall, is Lu Yang, who is an auxiliary official.

motioned to He Liang to hand the urgent report to Guo Jia and Zhou Yi for circulation.

After reading it, the faces of the two undoubtedly sank at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Guo Jia, Zhou Yi, what do you two think?"

Facing Luo Ji's questioning, after the two exchanged a look, Guo Jia was responsible for speaking.

"Back to Your Majesty, according to the things mentioned in this urgent report, Your Majesty should be worried about those big tribes who should have stayed in the depths of the grassland, after migrating to the periphery, forced to unite for their livelihoods and target the grain transportation team of our Ten Thousand Realms civilization."

"According to General Burigud's guess, if several major tribes join forces, plus some small tribes that depend on them, I am afraid that they will be able to gather at least more than 5,000 cavalry troops."

When this number was mentioned, everyone's eyelids jumped obviously.

This cavalry is not a cabbage.

Under Luo Ji's careful management for many years, the three grassland cities of their Ten Thousand Realms Civilization finally managed to come up with 3,000 cavalry.

Bai Ze and Burigude, two thousand cavalry commanders, each led 1,500 cavalry.

After that, plus Luo Cheng's five hundred cavalry on the side of Spiegel City, and a small group of cavalry scattered from several other cities.

All of them add up to more than 4,000 rides.

As a result, the big tribes that lived in the depths of the steppe all the year round, and Burigud even said that if they were united, they would have at least 5,000 cavalry.

At least!

In terms of the number of cavalry units, he was crushed at once.

In the face of this situation, Luo Ji can only have a ghost if he is in a good mood.

Because this means that once the other party unites, even if he transfers all the cavalry in his Ten Thousand Realms Civilization to escort grain and grass, he may not be able to protect the stability.

In terms of casualties, Luo Ji didn't even want to think about it!

As for the mobilization of infantry.

This is icy and snowy, not to mention the temperature, but to talk about the snow.

The snow on the ground was already piled up enough to bury two of a person's legs.

The cavalry, with the four long legs of their horses, could also break through the snow and carry food.

But the efficiency of the infantry's two legs is no longer low, but not at all.

"The grain sent to the three grassland cities must be transported, but in this climate where the infantry cannot be mobilized, the number of cavalry on the other side still exceeds ours......

Speaking of which, Guo Jia already felt an obvious headache.

After sorting out his thoughts, he silently raised two fingers.

"There are only two ways that Weichen can think of at the moment, but neither of them is a good solution."

"Say it quickly."

After getting Luo Ji's permission, I saw Guo Jia slowly speak......

"The first way is to change the route of transporting grain, and at the same time divide troops to transport grain."

"The movement of a large number of grain transport teams is too big to be discovered."

"Under this premise, the number of people will be reduced to two or three hundred cavalry in a team, and at the same time the grain transportation route will be changed."

"Although it greatly affects the efficiency of grain transportation, this method can at least make the movement of the grain transportation team more concealed and relatively safe."

"At the same time, even if a grain transport team is unlucky and is discovered by the steppe people, the losses will not be too heavy."

After saying the first method, Guo Jia breathed a sigh of relief, took a sip of hot tea, and also confirmed Luo Ji's reaction.

I saw that Luo Ji, who was sitting on the main seat at this time, was full of thoughts, obviously thinking about the method that Guo Jia had just said.

"The decline in efficiency will cause many people in the three steppe cities to starve to death due to lack of food, and besides, if the cavalry of two or three hundred and one teams encounters those steppe people of the big tribes, I am afraid that they have no chance of winning, and even have the risk of being besieged and killed."

Luo Ji saw the flaws of this method very thoroughly.

As Guo Jia said at the beginning, this is indeed not a good solution, it can only be said to be a way.

Rubbing his eyebrows vigorously, Luo Ji couldn't make up his mind for the time being, because transporting grain in batches was equivalent to dispersing forces, and there was a risk of being broken one by one.

"What's the second option?"

"The second option is even more unfortunate."

Before saying that method, Guo Jia decisively took a dose of preventive injection, and then continued......

"Wechen's second solution is to temporarily abandon the three grassland cities and transfer all the people and resources in the city to the Central Plains."

As soon as this method was spoken, it directly shocked everyone in the council hall.

Even Lu Yang, who had been sitting there without saying a word, couldn't sit still at the moment.

What Guo Jia and Luo Ji were talking about before was military affairs, and he didn't understand it, so naturally he wouldn't interject casually.

But this is the matter of giving up the three grassland cities and transferring all the people and resources in the city to the Central Plains.

That's when it comes to government affairs.

And it's a terrible government affair with a huge workload!

He couldn't pretend that he hadn't heard about it.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks this is inappropriate!"

As he spoke, Lu Yang stood up directly.

"The total population of the three grassland cities together is nearly 200,000! Isn't the transfer of all things something that can be done? ”

"And now that the snow is closed, how can the people who died of cold, disease, and hunger be appeased during the transfer process?"

"What if you are attacked by horse thieves in the middle of the road and there are a lot of casualties?"

"There is no doubt that in the process, the people will accumulate a lot of discontent."

"Even if the transfer is successful, how will these nearly 200,000 people be resettled?"

"How to calculate the huge loss of abandoning three cities at the same time?"

"Have you ever considered these questions, Lord Guo?!"
