"Xiaosheng, you said that if we recover these lost territories in the past in the Great Zhou, how many soldiers will we have to have?" Xiao Chen was already deeply aware of the seriousness of the problem.

"If the entire Yanyun County is recovered, I think 200,000 soldiers are enough when there is enough food and grass." Zhuge Xiaosheng groaned.

"Where did I rely on our Da Zhou get 200,000 soldiers and horses now?" Ye Baiqing grinned and said that this idea was very unrealistic.

"If I bring it, 100,000 soldiers are enough, and if it is elite, 50,000 is enough!" Zhuge Xiaosheng is so confident, but he still has a later word, "But the fundamental problem of Yanyun County is not to recover, but to defend, if you take it back or can't hold it, what's the use." ”

"This is all flat ground, how can you guard it?" Ye Baiqing said.

"There are many soldiers, there is enough grain and grass, and the barren land is reclaimed and the wall is high, why can't you defend it?" However, Duan Ling'er had a different opinion.

"It's okay to defend one city, it's okay to have two cities, but eighteen states, how do you defend them? You said that it is not easy to reclaim wasteland, there are only a few hundred thousand people in the eighteen states, how many crops can be planted? If the enemy attacks during the autumn grain harvest, how should we respond? Zhuge Xiaosheng said.

"I said there are a lot of soldiers, and you give me a million people to see if I can defend it?" Duan Ling'er had a small mouth.

"Alas...... Isn't that a dream, you little girl? If I had a million soldiers, I would be able to wipe out the entire North. Zhuge Xiaosheng sighed.

"Can you bring a million soldiers? I see that you little girl has a hard time with a thousand soldiers...... Yuntian, don't you say? Ye Baiqing said.

"Uh-huh, yes, yes...... What did you say? Wei Yuntian was absent-minded, guess who he was thinking?

"I despise you! Just for a Xiangqin girl, are you going to do it? This is a lost soul before he gets married, if he marries into the family, I'm afraid that even the boss won't recognize it! "Ye Baiqing is actually jealous of Wei Yuntian.

"Alas...... That would be three years from now. Wei Yuntian sighed leisurely, three years, longer than a lifetime!

"This man is useless." Ye Baiqing was speechless to him.

"Xiaosheng, what do you think of Yanyun County?" Xiao Chen, whose eyes never left the map, suddenly asked an inexplicable word.

"Not bad." Zhuge Xiaosheng's answer was also inexplicable.

"I heard from an elder that this is the best place for rebellion?" Xiao Chen said.

"Well, you can survive in the cracks." Zhuge Xiaosheng's words were exactly the same as that elder, and that elder was naturally Chen Jisheng.

This is what he said last time when he broke up with Chen Jisheng in Weizhou County, and he didn't talk about it deeply, but Xiao Chen always kept this sentence in his heart.

In fact, he remembered almost every word Chen Jisheng said.

He still remembered that when he came out of Zhao Gongming's house that day, Zhao Gongming specially told him to treat this Lord Chen Jisheng well, and it would be best if he could pull him into the water.

Because of what? Because Zhao Gongming felt that Chen Jisheng was a national soldier.

The country is unparalleled.

And he was like a god.

Before Xiao Chen got up the next day, a little eunuch who was the master of ceremonies rushed to report, Gonggong Xiao wake up, the emperor beckoned you over.

Please ask Gonggong Xiao to change into his official uniform, and the emperor will let you ascend to the court with him!

Do you still remember what happened last time Li Wanjiang took Xiao Chen to the dynasty? So this time his hunch was not good......

And his hunch was sometimes more accurate than Wei Yuntian's crow's mouth.

In the Qianqing Palace, the ministers gathered, saw the emperor arrive, and shouted long live together.

"Everyone, love Qing Ping." Li Wanjiang sat on the dragon chair.

A tall and thin official got up but did not sit down, but stepped forward, took out a red document from his arms and played it loudly, he was the secretary of the military department, the great Sima Lu Jing.

"Your Majesty, yesterday evening I received an emergency document of 800 miles from Yanyun County, 3,000 Xianyu people have captured one of our towns again, abducted more than 700 residents, tens of thousands of catties of grain just harvested in autumn, and countless livestock, chickens and poultry......"

Xiao Chen walked over to take the paperwork, but saw that there were three chicken feathers stuck on it, which was called a chicken feather letter, and it was generally only used when there was an emergency military situation.

"Don't look at it, the situation in Yanyun County is tense, and I don't know it." Li Wanjiang waved his hand, motioned for Xiao Chen to step aside, and continued, "When the national disaster is at hand, what are your good plans?" It's time to figure it out. ”

There was silence in the hall, and the pin drop could be heard.

Everyone thought to themselves, what's the best way to go? It's nothing more than sending troops to drive them away, but the strategy is like this, but there are no soldiers!

It is still difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, who can fight a war without soldiers?

If you want to say that there are also soldiers, Wu Zicheng has 60,000 forbidden troops under his command, and Wu Zhong, the commander of the Nine Gates, has 50,000 elite soldiers, but these are all guards guarding Fengyang City, should they be transferred?

What should I do in Beijing?

Another way is to wait for Li Feng, the king of Fengyang, to triumph, and then go to Yanyun County to fight after resting for a while.

In addition, there are no more soldiers in the vicinity, and those who can be adjusted have already been transferred.

"Your Majesty, the southern Xinjiang is quite stable at present, why don't you transfer some troops and horses from Jiuxi?" A minister dared to admonish.

"When the soldiers and horses of Jiuxi pacified Siam, they suffered a lot of losses, and King Zhongcheng also asked me to replenish the troops, how can there be soldiers? Besides, Jiuxi is thousands of miles away from Yanyun County, and when they come, I'm afraid that the entire Yanyun County will be gone! Li Wanjiang refused.

"Your Majesty, Murong Heng, the Duke of Zhenxi, has a unit stationed on the west side of Yanyun Mountain, can you consider letting him send a team of soldiers and horses to help?" Again, it was suggested.

"No, Yanyun is important, and Xijiang is even more important, if there is any more chaos in Xijiang, how do you let me deal with it?" Li Wanjiang also vetoed it.

In fact, the soldiers and horses on both sides can be transferred, if there are more, it is always no problem to have 10,000 to 20,000 people per family, but the problem is that Li Wanjiang can't be transferred at all!

Murong Heng needless to say, when he signed the alliance with him, he had already said that he would not transfer a single soldier to him, as long as he could hold the western frontier.

As for his younger brother Li Wanyun's soldiers, they cannot be mobilized at will.

The reasons for this are particularly complex and cannot be explained in a single word.

In addition, Li Wanjiang also has an unspeakable hidden worry, that is, no matter whether Li Wanyun or Murong Heng's soldiers come, they must pass through Fengyang City!

These two armies are battle-hardened armies, and both are under the orders of their respective commanders, do you know what that means?

In case, just in case, if the two of them have different intentions and directly lead their troops to attack Fengyang City, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Although there are 100,000 soldiers and horses in Fengyang City, most of them are newly recruited recruits, but they may not be able to resist the 20,000 elites of these two!

"Your Majesty, Jiangnan County is the territory of my Great Zhou, and it is absolutely not allowed to infringe on it! As far as the minister knows, there are about 3,000 stragglers recovered from all over the Haining Bay camp, and although many of them are wounded, they are almost rested, which is enough for a battle! But it was Chen Wenqi, the head of the household, who spoke.

Others just left, but Xiao Chen was tightened when he heard this, and his heart said that something special is coming......
