Chapter 215: Preparing for the Great War

After becoming emperor, there was one thing that lingered on his mind, that is, he had not yet recovered the lost territory and expelled the Mongol Tatars.

Although his martial arts were already the strongest on the surface, he still couldn't resist the 100,000 army alone.

Manpower is sometimes exhausted! He is not yet an immortal, and he cannot destroy a city with a single spell.

At this time, Yang Guo sat on the dragon chair and looked down at the civil and military officials below.

Every day there are things happening all over the country, and the things that are dealt with are much the same.

Listening to their advice that they didn't have nutrition, Yang Guo almost fell asleep.

After the next dynasty, Yang Guo suddenly got a little tired of his current life.

When he was the emperor, he just wanted to save the people from fire and water.

But now I find that no matter how great my ability is, some things cannot be changed overnight.

The ass decides the head.

There is another thing that is very distressing, although he has not cultivated well in the past few years, the pressure exerted between heaven and earth is getting bigger and bigger, and it seems that as long as he runs the exercises, he can sense with heaven and earth.

He didn't want to leave this world so soon.

He still has an unfulfilled mission and a family to keep him company.

And Yang Guo found that even though he created exercises for his women and took pills, their strength was far from enough to want to soar together.

Do you want to take them to soar with the power of one person, but the space passage has many uncertain factors such as space-time turbulence and space storms.

You could fall yourself, let alone take them with you.

It's been a long time, otherwise you just waste your cultivation and stay in this world.

Wanting to give up the cultivation that you have gained through hard cultivation is like earning 100,000 yuan in hard work, and then suddenly you have to donate it all, this feeling of reluctance.

I can only accompany as much as possible.

Time was running out, and he wanted to speed up the course of the war as soon as possible.

This army has been training for a long time, and the constant harassment of the Mongol army over the years has constantly weakened the strength of the other side, and the most important thing is the improvement of battlefield weapons over the years.

Yang Guo felt that the time was almost up, he wanted to gather an army of 300,000 and destroy the obstacles in front with the cooperation of all forces.

And this time he wants to drive the expedition in person, either return to his hometown with honor, or die on the battlefield.

Now that the decision has been made, it is time to prepare in advance.

After the armistice between Song and Jin, the territory of the Southern Song Dynasty was reduced by one-third compared with that of the Northern Song Dynasty, and a large number of northern Han Chinese became the subjects of the Jin State. Because of the Song Dynasty, many Han people in the north risked great dangers to cross the border into the Southern Song Dynasty and make suggestions to resist the invasion of the Jin State, and Xin Qiji was one of them.

Due to being in the enemy camp for a long time, the reformed people can be said to know the situation of the Jin Kingdom well, and if they are reused, they will definitely be able to know themselves and the enemy, and help the Southern Song Dynasty achieve greater victories!

Yang Guo has activated a group of righteous people who fled north and returned.

For the Southern Song Dynasty, if you want to block the iron hooves of Mongolia, the best way is to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun and block Mongolia from going south with the danger of mountains and rivers; The second method is to recover the "Tongguan-Yellow River" line, relying on the natural danger of Tongguan and the Yellow River to consolidate the land of Sanjing.

But the Yellow River freezes in winter, which is significantly more beneficial for Mongolia!

Moreover, in the era of small-scale peasant economy, the Southern Song Dynasty simply did not have the conditions to travel thousands of miles north to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun. Because of the great climate change in the north, it can be used between the Southern Song Dynasty and the north, and then the summer and autumn, and the troops must be withdrawn after a long time.

For Mongolia, if the Southern Song Dynasty occupies the first line of the Yellow River, it means that all the dividends brought by the Mongol destruction of the Song Dynasty will be lost. And if the Southern Song Dynasty occupied the sixteen states of Yanyun, it meant that the Mongols did not get any benefits in the war to destroy the Jin! This is unacceptable!

For a long time, the Mongolian army was dominated by cavalry, coming and going like the wind, and had strong mobility. The Southern Song Dynasty, on the other hand, used infantry as the main force all year round and had poor mobility. Under such conditions, if you want to completely defeat Mongolia, in addition to strong combat effectiveness, you must also "respond to all changes with the same" and rely on mountains and rivers to block Mongolia's iron hooves!

Yang Guo summoned a group of loyal ministers to discuss the battle.

On the other side, Yang Guo had already written 800 miles to inform Guo Jing urgently.

After discussing the battle plan here, it is necessary to start assembling soldiers and horses, and the soldiers and horses will go to Xiangyang in unison, and then push all the way north from Xiangyang.

The final decisive battle requires a period of preparation, and the so-called three armies have not gone ahead before they have done anything.

What is the grain and grass here?

The grain and grass also contain equipment, such as spears, shields, bows and arrows, arrows and soldiers' clothes, no one knows when to fight, where the temperature will be, so sometimes, sometimes there will be some anti-seasonal clothes, the most important thing is armor, some generals are injured, but there is no worry about their lives, that is the armor to protect him, but what to do if the armor is broken, this is, will be replaced with new armor first, so the armor is very important.

There are also some supplies such as rice.

The importance of grain and grass to a war.

There is a record in the Song Dynasty's "Mengxi Writings", and I won't tell you the original text, let's talk about the general meaning, a soldier fighting on the front line needs three people in the rear to provide grain and grass! It is quantity of 4 people that I consumed! Of course, it's actually not that high, because it's calculated on a purely human basis, and it may actually be a little lower, but not by much.

In ancient wars, a few thousand people were considered a few, but tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands. With so many people, you need to eat and drink every day, usually you may only need to eat one bowl of rice, but now in the war, you have to eat three bowls of rice! And the troops have horses, and the amount of food consumed by war horses is an astronomical amount! Therefore, in ancient wars, the most important thing was grain and grass, but the collection of grain and grass was not as simple as everyone imagined.

Now, Yang Guo has the whole country to prepare everything in a few months.

This war cannot be dragged on for too long.

The eldest son is already familiar with the government and politics, and he can take his own place, so he is not afraid that no one will deal with the government and politics.

Yang Guo didn't tell them about the royal conquest, it was too early to tell them now, and telling them would only increase their worries.

The whole country can feel a feeling of heavy rain and wind filling the building.

The atmosphere was somewhat tense and depressing.

On the other hand, after three years of hard work, the Golden Wheel Dharma King's "Dragon Elephant Prajna Gong" also successfully reached the thirteenth level.

I saw the disheveled hair of the Golden Wheel Dharma King let out a bold laugh.

"I have finally practiced the [Dragon Elephant Prajna Gong] to the highest level, Yang Guo, I want to see if you can resist my thirteenth-layer [Dragon Elephant Prajna Gong]."

With the assistance of the Heavenly Treasure and relying on his peerless talent, the Golden Wheel Dharma King finally cultivated from the ninth layer to the thirteenth layer in less than ten years.

What the hell is the treasure of heaven and earth that has so much energy.

I saw him slap out the boulder a few meters high on the opposite side with one palm and blast it to pieces.

It's terrifying.
