When the last army set out to move north, the whole army was almost exhausted. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It is really not easy, the time is so short, and the mobilization force is so large, no matter from which point of view, it is unprecedented since the establishment of the Huaiyou.

Food, equipment, weapons, armor and all kinds of materials were transported from Shouzhou and Huzhou to Haozhou, and the army was continuously drawn from Luzhou to Haozhou, and the masters had to recruit a part from Haozhou and transport a part from Luzhou and Shouzhou, which required a huge and careful planning.

Rao has made a lot of preparations in advance, but when it comes to the end, there are still many things that have not been taken into account, and it is necessary to arrange and promote them temporarily, which is not only a test for the entire Huaiyou logistics support system, but also a rare tempering.

The entire Huai Right Army, the Tooth Army, and the Tenth Army of the Left Wing Army, except for the Third and Fourth Armies stationed in Nanyingzhou, and the Seventh Army and the Ninth Army stationed in Luzhou to continue the reorganization, the remaining six armies all went to Haozhou.

Among them, the First Army and the Second Army of the Right Wing Army, which had completely completed the reorganization, and the First Naval Army would follow the main force of the Naval Army that set off first and march along the Bianqu Canal to Tongqiao, and together with the main force of the Naval Army that had completed the raid on Tongqiao, they would undertake the flanking attack of Yao Chengtai's Department of the Reform Army, which might come from the north and south.

The 1st Cavalry Army is also assembling in Haozhou, and they will also go north with the main force of the Infantry Army, and whether the 2nd Cavalry Army can catch up, or whether it needs to go north, depends on the situation.

The dispatch of military affairs naturally does not need Chen Wei, Du Tuo and Wang Huang and others, but logistics and transportation support, this is the most onerous affairs, Chen Wei is in Shouzhou, with the assistance of Zheng Ju is responsible for unified deployment, and Du Tuo is in Yang Xun's cooperation to ensure that there is no chaos in Luzhou, Wang Huang is in Haozhou with Hao Governor Shi and Yang Xun's son Yang Gu is responsible for arranging coordination.

It should be said that the duel between Yang Pu and Li Yu still helped Huaiyou a lot.

If there was no big battle between Yang Pu's Desheng Army and Zhongzheng Army and Li Yudong's Navy and Zhen Navy in the early stage, Luzhou would not have carried out such a large-scale mobilization, and the direct result was that the Huaiyou Army could take over the Desheng Army and the Zhongzheng Army with as many as 20,000 or 30,000 masters.

Although the previous attitude towards the Desheng Army and the Zhongzheng Army was to be disbanded, but the right army of Master Huai never planned to be disbanded and sent home, since he had made up his mind to go on the Northern Expedition, then these two or thirty thousand masters were the best labor force, and of course they had to be used.

As for the reorganization of the Zhongzheng Army and the Desheng Army into Huaiyou, that is all a matter later.

It didn't take much time to reorganize the master and carry it out according to the logistics operation mode of Huaiyou, after all, the master himself has his own rules of operation, and the requirements cannot be as high as the army, and to be precise, Yang Pu originally did a good job, so soon these two or thirty thousand masters were included in the Huaiyou system.

It can be said that the biggest gain in a short period of time in this eastward march to Luzhou is not even the city of Luzhou, but the 9,000 remnants of the army and more than 20,000 masters.

These can be incorporated into the Huaiyou Army after a simple reorganization to exert its strength, but Luzhou itself still needs time to digest, and even to solve the gentry in Luzhou who are very hostile to Huaiyou, it is still necessary to test Jiang Feng's means and patience.

Standing on the dock, Chen Wei couldn't help but move his waist and neck, which had been sitting on the desk for a long time, and exhaled a breath of turbidity, "It's almost there." ”

"Lord Changshi, I'm afraid it's just the beginning. Zheng Ju stood aside with a smile.

"Well, I didn't know that this was just the beginning, just self-comforting. Chen Wei smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I found that since I followed the king, I have never had a relaxed time, and I even have a lot less time to go home, and my old wife at home complains that I pay much less attention to my children." ”

"Who made the king's movements always so fast and so fierce?"

Zheng Ju originally thought that since the second brother Zheng Hong had entered the mansion, he should also retire to recuperate, but he didn't expect Jiang Feng to "let go" of him and let him also enter the mansion to assist Wang Huang.

However, in fact, the affairs of the defense and capture of the embassy is now very messy, and there is a serious shortage of manpower, so many times it is a matter of one thing and one discussion, and a certain matter is directly determined who is responsible for who assists, and it is not carried out according to the original division of labor, which is also a common problem within a feudal lord in a period of rapid expansion.

When Zheng Ju said this, he was also emotional, shocked, and with some pride and prospect.

That's right, when Shouzhou fell into the hands of Jiang Feng, Jiang Feng was qualified to say that he wanted to seek Huaiyou, but after more than a year, Luhao Erzhou, which was originally the hinterland of Huaiyou, was already in his hands, and even Hezhou, and even the two counties of Nanyingzhou in Huaibei were also under control, and now you don't even have time to sigh, but the army is heading north and breaking into Xuzhou.

In the next step, Huaiyou observes and disposes of this identity, which may only be a part of Jiang Feng, and takes Xuzhou, it is not just as simple as Huaiyou, what Xuzhou represents, no one does not understand.

Although he was also a little worried about the Huaiyou army going north, Zheng Ju was still more optimistic about Huaiyou.

The weakness and chaos of Huaibei is not a secret to these Shouzhou people who are only a river away, and now the Caizhou army is already overstretched to swallow Bozhou, and the north is in chaos.

Taking 10,000 steps back, Zheng Ju felt that even if he really couldn't take Xuzhou for a while, Sizhou could definitely be taken, which was very tempting for establishing a kingdom across both sides of the Huaishui.

"So, we old men can only trot all the way to keep up with the king's pace. Chen Wei muttered: "It turns out that I feel that I may be living like this for the rest of my life in Gushi, but in the past three years, almost every year has to subvert my own cognition, the outstanding people in the Chen family are now waiting in line to enter the Great Avenue Academy, Sizhen, your Zheng family can't be left behind, as far as I know, Xun Gong has sent several of his sons and nephews to the Great Avenue Academy to study." ”

Zheng Ju knew that this was Chen Wei's gesture and reminder.

The Dadao School was founded by Jiang Feng, and at first it was only a short-term training for officials and a school for children who had lost their fathers in the army and no one to take care of them, but with the rapid expansion of the Huaiyou territory, the number of gentry from all over the country who were included in the Huaiyou system also doubled, and the short-term training of officials gradually began to transform into systematic official learning and training.

From the first three months, to the current half a year, a year, and even a two-year study and training course, the hired teachers are becoming more and more complex.

In addition to the traditional "Book of Rites", "Spring and Autumn Zuo's Biography", "Shangshu", "Xunzi", "Lü's Spring and Autumn", it also includes "Zhou Ji Sutra", "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", "Island Sutra", "Book of Han before and after", "Southern History", "Northern History", "Laozi", "Zhuangzi", "Liezi", etc., but more importantly, it is to hire local officials at all levels to teach the experience of general affairs and all kinds of tricks and traps that may be encountered by local cunning officials and inferior gentry in government affairs.

Even Chen Wei had to admire Jiang Feng's creativity in this, and he actually thought of hiring those officials who were dismissed because of old age and infirmity or even because of offenses to sum up their experience and teach these new officials who were about to appear on the stage, and this kind of experience is all kinds of gloom that officials from all over the world have explored and summarized on their own for thousands of years, and how to deal with and solve these problems in a targeted manner, although it is still a long process, even a foot high and a foot high, but at least it can make these new officials make fewer mistakes and step on many traps。

"Thank you Chen Gong for reminding me, I have also arranged for my nephews to sign up for the school, and there are already three people in the plan, and they will be enrolled in the next phase. Zheng Ju explained with a smile.

"Well, that's good. Chen Wei glanced at Zheng Ju.

Unexpectedly, the Zheng family still took into account the front, and it seems that the three surnames of Shouzhou are still quite keen.

In contrast, it is the surnames Huang and Tan in Huzhou who are slow, and these short-sighted hillbillies really only care about their immediate interests and have no long-term plans.

Now the Huaiyou power is in full swing, once Xuzhou is taken, it can be said that Huaiyou will immediately become a super feudal lord in the land of Middle Earth that can be compared with Daliang and Hedong, perhaps inferior to Daliang and Hedong in terms of military strength, but if the integration is completed, its economic strength can definitely become the crown of the vassals, as for the military strength, as long as there is economic strength as a backing, it is only a matter of time.

Of course, it is not a simple matter to complete the integration without interference, Heshuo and Pinglu in the north, Daliang and Caizhou in the west, and Li Wu in the south, these valve clans may not watch the expansion of Huaiyou's strength, and will always try their best to create trouble and obstacles to obstruct and interfere with the smooth development of Huaiyou, which is also a long-term process of eliminating the other.

If you don't plan the situation early, it will not be so simple to occupy a position in the Huaiyou system in the future.

This time annexed the two states of Luhao, the gentry of Haozhou will soon turn over, but the gentry of the Yang family of Luzhou are afraid that it will take some time for their heads to turn around, this is just an opportunity, until these gentry in Luzhou have begun to completely turn to Huaiyou, I am afraid that the competition will be fierce, and at that time, there will be the gentry of Xuzhou Sizhou and Haizhou will also join the ranks, then the eight immortals will cross the sea, each showing their magical powers.

"By the way, Chen Gong, the test report on the use of the two-wheeled cart improved by Daozang has come out, and they think that it can be promoted to daily civilian use, which is much more efficient than ordinary ox carts and carriages, especially in terms of speed. Zheng Ju seemed to think of something: "And according to the feedback from the Daozang Office, they are improving four-wheeled driving, especially horse-drawn carriages and donkey carts, and it is estimated that there will be a big breakthrough." ”
