Chapter 1455 The Yellow Turban marched west to seize Wu
PS: Thank you for your generous reward! Thank you for the valuable monthly pass!
Hanzhong has fully completed the division of land, spring ploughing has also been completed very smoothly, looking at the large fields, everyone can look forward to this year's harvest, especially the Yellow Turban Army, which has been entangled by hunger like a nightmare for many years, is looking forward to the early arrival of the day when hunger can be completely rid of hunger.
However, in Jiang Yong's view, there is no need to expect this, it will definitely happen, and instead of looking forward to these things that will inevitably come, it is better to think about other more interesting things, such as whether it is time to move westward.
The sunlight shines through the window, casting regular spots of light on the floor, and the map hangs on the side facing the window, and a spot of light is projected on the corner of the map, making people feel that the other part of the map is a little dark, Zhang Liang involuntarily leaned forward to see the map more clearly.
In fact, there is a lot of data marked in small print on the map, and it is true that you can't see it if you don't get close.
"Strategist, are you going to send troops to the military capital?"
"That's exactly what it means, but it's just a suggestion, and it's up to the second general to decide whether to send troops, not me."
"Huh"
Zhang Liang laughed a few meaninglessly, and everyone glanced at Jiang Yong, this Jiang Yong still spoke so straight, but after getting used to it, everyone felt that there was nothing wrong with it, Jiang Yong was a person who had one thing to say and two to say, simple and direct!
"So, can the military advisor help us to solve the puzzle, why do we want to send troops to the military capital at this time, although the spring ploughing has been completed. But it happened to be a time when the green and yellow were not received, where did the money and food come from at this time? โ
Jiang Yong nodded, seemingly satisfied with Zhang Liang's rebuttal. I don't know if he was satisfied with Zhang Liang's calmness, or if he was satisfied that Zhang Liang's ideas didn't run out of his prediction.
"The second general is right, now is the time when the green and yellow are not available, because our army has invested a lot in settling the people and renovating water conservancy facilities in the early stage, and now the money and grain are indeed very tight, and the precious stocks are also prepared to meet the needs of the untimed, so there should be no war at this time."
Everyone nodded. Since Jiang Yong knew the situation, why did he choose this time to start a war?
"However, we are difficult. The enemy is more difficult, we have Hanzhong in our hands, and last year we also took over the treasury of Hanzhong completely, so there is still more or less surplus food in our pockets. However, the tribes and villages in Wudu that were not under the control of the government did not have such benefits. In the past, these Qiang and Han tribes would go up the mountains to look for food, or form groups to the east to plunder the people of Hanzhong. Therefore, in order to prevent them from coming over and stealing them, we might as well take the initiative and cripple them first. โ
Zhang Liang frowned suspiciously: "Is this what it is?" โ
"Hehe, of course not only for this, but more importantly. Time is running out1
"Time is running out? What do you mean? Zhang Liang trembled in his heart, and he had a bad feeling. The faces of the generals also became serious.
Jiang Yong reached out and pinched a corner of the map, brushed the ground and flipped the entire map over, revealing a larger-scale map below, which included Yizhou, Yongzhou, and Jingzhou, with Hanzhong right in the middle.
From the clearly colored map, it can be seen that the small patch of yellow in Hanzhong looks so small in the bag of the three huge color blocks of red, black and green around it, and it is so small that people feel very uneasy.
"Look, Hanzhong is actually very small, so small that there is no way to compete with the behemoths around it! If it weren't for Hanzhong's superior geographical location, or because they all had more important things to do, Hanzhong would be in danger of collapse at any time. Now, however, these behemoths seem to have stabilized. โ
Everyone's breathing gradually became shorter, Jiang Yong meant, did these people start to look at Hanzhong?
Glancing at everyone, Jiang Yong curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and continued:
"Hanzhong is very important, whether it is Liu Bei or Sima Fang, and even Cao Cao wants to get involved, everyone knows this. I'm not sure if they've hit us with the idea, but I'm sure they won't be damned. Therefore, we must make the necessary preparations for this dangerous situation that may arise, we have no allies, and everyone should be aware of this, so do not expect an ally to appear, if there is, then this friendly army is actually here to take the life"
"Uh, what the hell is this military advisor trying to say? What should we prepare? โ
"I once said that Hanzhong is just a foothold, a pedal, our real purpose is not in Hanzhong, and you should not regard Hanzhong as your own nest, our goal is "
'Bang' Jiang Yong's palm slapped on the map, attracting everyone's attention, under Jiang Yong's palm, there is no color filling of the non-zhรจngfว control area, but that place is a little trembling, there is a plateau!
"Plateau! That's right, our goal is the plateau! As long as we successfully climb the plateau, then our world is incomparably broad, the plateau not only has a vast world, rich water sources, more importantly, the living environment on the plateau is difficult for ordinary people to get used to, which is equivalent to a natural barrier, with this barrier, we can easily block the enemy from Yizhou, Yongzhou, at the same time, we can also occupy the offensive initiative, strong strength, swept down from the plateau, insufficient strength, then on the plateau to concentrate on development, here is our blessed land 1
The generals looked at each other, since it was so difficult on the plateau, how could they go up easily? Where is there the activity of the Qiang people, and that number
"Military advisor, as far as I know, there seem to be Qiang people on the plateau, and it is said that there are quite a few of them."
Zhang Mancheng asked suspiciously.
"Yes, there are Qiang people, according to the intelligence I have gathered, and the results of the reconnaissance mission issued, the plateau has a vast area, and there are a large number of Qiang activities, but they are independent, there is no unified government, basically they live a nomadic life in the tribal unit, so before they form a unified regime, these Qiang people have nothing to fear. In fact, the biggest enemy on our westward march is the plateau itself, and it will take time for our soldiers to adapt to life and battle on the plateau, and Wudu is a good place for us to train and adapt. โ
"Training, adaptation? Strategist"
"Yes, there are a lot of Han and Qiang tribe villages in Wudu, but they do not work together, Wudu is a step from Hanzhong to the plateau, as long as we adapt to the living environment of Wudu, there will be no problem in climbing the plateau in the future, and Wudu is mountainous, just to give full play to our strength in mountain warfare, in turn, in the future, Wudu will also be our main position to resist strong enemies from the east, and it is the right time to start operating Wudu now1
Everyone's eyes lit up, and the expressions that looked at Jiang Yong were also full of admiration, with Jiang Yong, they seemed to be able to stand higher and see farther, in Jiang Yong's description, they saw their own rugged, but full of bright road, at this moment, everyone was full of confidence in the future.
"In times of peace, it is our blessing to have a military advisor1
Zhang Liang said with emotion, expressing everyone's thoughts at this time, Jiang Yong smiled reservedly: "The second general has won the award, this matter is within the scope of his subordinate, if he can't even do this, it will really be a corpse vegetarian meal." โ
"Hehe, the military advisor's plan is far-sighted, I am convinced, do you have such a detailed plan?"
"There are 1
Jiang Yong stretched out his hand and put the map back to the map of Hanzhong with a bang, pointed to the map and said: "Everyone, please see, the location and population data of the major cities and tribal settlements in Wudu have been marked here, and we can deduce the combat power based on this, and according to my information, there are deep contradictions between these tribes. โ
"Wait a minute, why do they have contradictions, shouldn't they unite with the outside world at this time?"
"It's not just because of the different races, they will even rob each other, as for the unanimous outside, do you think they have equal wisdom and belly?"
"Uh" Liao Hua opened his mouth in embarrassment, shook his head and stopped speaking.
"According to the actual situation of the enemy, our army only needs one army, and about 20,000 troops can attack Wudu, and we are not so anxious about the time, but every time we take a place, we need to thoroughly digest it, including the immigration garrison, as well as the construction of roads."
"Building roads, this project is a bit big, manpower, money and food"
"Manpower is used to use captives and aliens, and the things that have been robbed of money and food are put into road construction, in addition, the second general and you should not be idle, we need a lot of paper talismans, props, equipment, all kinds of famous general cards, summoning cards, these please lead the army to brush the dungeon, sweep away the wild monsters! Use these as Inhuman rewards1
"That's fine, but does it fully meet the need? That long road, and more difficult and longer to build in the mountains? โ
"Yes, however, we are not a one-time investment, the process of conquering Wudu County may continue until the autumn and winter, and we are looking at the food and food, how much ability to do how much, and strive to take the entire Wudu within next year, build a passage road between Wudu City and Nanzheng, build a fortress in Zhouqu, complete the control of Wudu, and start a moderate immigration development, if carefully developed, it is not a problem for Wudu to feed one or two million people. After Wudu is controlled, we basically have no worries about survival, and the next thing is to go west out of Zhouqu, go south to seize Yinping, and expand our development space. โ
'Smack' Zhang Liang slapped his thigh hard: "Miaoce, the son of the military advisor Zhenwu is also in the room, there is a military advisor, I can be worry-free, haha"
"Second General, let me go this time, and guarantee to take the entire Wudu 1 within this year
Liao Hua immediately stood up and shouted to fight, and Zhang Mancheng, Zhao Hong and others also asked for the unwilling to fight.
Zhang Liang happily looked at his energetic subordinates, stroked his beard with satisfaction and smiled. To be continued...
