Chapter 190: What Next?
At the time of the infighting of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
In the camp of the border army, Zhuge Liang walked quickly into the big tent of the Chinese army with a number of battle reports.
This is a battle report sent by generals from all over the country, and he compiled it into a document and came to report to Su Mo the specific situation of the border troops in various places.
Inside the military tent, Su Mo was still checking the map, and suddenly heard someone outside the military tent asking to see him, he didn't raise his head, and directly responded to the peace.
"Come in."
As soon as the words fell, Zhuge Liang walked in quickly with a few books in his arms, he looked at the sand table in front of Su Mo, and couldn't help but praise.
"The general is really a generation of Ming Jun."
"To this day, I still work for the military."
Su Mo looked at Zhuge Liang's figure and got up to greet him with a smile.
"Why is the military advisor here now?"
The latter raised his hand to the Chinese book and replied with a smile.
"Naturally, I sent a military report to the general."
After speaking, he opened the paperwork and said loudly.
"There are now 300 artillery pieces and 1,000 muskets in Yumen Pass, plus more than 100,000 elites under the command of Mengwu."
"Our border army has achieved results in penetrating into the Dawu Dynasty."
After speaking, he walked to the sand table and pointed to Yunshan County, the border of the Dawu Dynasty, and said.
"There are a total of eight cities in Yunshan County, and now our border army has occupied six of them."
"The Dawu Dynasty is still mobilizing elites to go to the border passes, intending to defend them."
Su Mo looked at the situation in the sand table and said suddenly.
"It's okay, let Meng Wu defend Yunshan County first."
"If the more than 100,000 troops are mobilized, it should not be enough."
"Let's stop the border army of the Dawu Dynasty first."
Zhuge Liang also nodded when he heard this, quite agreeing with Su Mo's remarks, and he took out a document again.
"Zao Wou-ki's 100,000 cavalry is already armed with 3,000 muskets."
"All the cavalry under the command of the Xiongnu royal court was mobilized, and Zao Wou-Ki had three battles with the Right Xian King, all of which were great victories."
"At present, the defense line has been pushed to a distance of 300 miles, and a border military town has been established with cement."
After speaking, he walked to the map, pointed out the location of the military town for Su Mo, and looked in the direction of Zhuge Liang, Su Mo's eyes suddenly lit up.
"The transport lines of the Huns? That's a good idea. ”
"Has the redcoat cannon been transferred?"
Zhuge Liang nodded and said loudly.
"Eighty red-clothed cannons were urgently transferred from Yumen Pass, and they should be able to hold it."
"The logistics road between Tai'an City and the military town has also been opened, and a large army can be dispatched at any time."
Seeing this, Su Mo patted Zhuge Liang on the shoulder.
"Thank you for your hard work."
He knew very well that now that the border armies were fighting on all sides, the border armies everywhere needed instructions from the General's Office before they dared to act.
During this time, he was staring at the Great Zhou Dynasty again, and all the trivial affairs were handed over to Zhuge Liang to deal with.
In addition, the affairs of the people in various parts of the border, the pacification of the newly laid city, and the logistics affairs.
It takes a lot of mental attention.
Except for Zhuge Liang, I am afraid that no one can control military affairs and deal with people's livelihood at the same time.
Listening to Su Mo's faint words, a nameless power suddenly emerged in Zhuge Liang's body, as the so-called soldier dies for his confidant, he thinks like this at this time.
Su Mo gave him all the rights, and all the things were left to him with confidence, and Zhuge Liang naturally would not disappoint Su Mo.
No matter how complicated these things are, he will do his best to do them to the best of their ability.
Looking at the encouragement in Su Mo's expression, Zhuge Liang said with a smile.
"It's okay, it's just that I've been a little tired lately."
"There are many border military affairs, coupled with the squeeze of government affairs, there are more and more cities in various places, and it will take some time to reconcile."
He didn't say this to give himself an image of hard work, it was all true.
Because of the red-coated cannons, the border army captured the city very quickly.
Often, before the internal affairs of the previous city have been dealt with, it is necessary to start arranging the internal affairs of the next city.
The most critical issue is the problem of manpower, and there are only so many civil servants that can be used by the border army.
Many cities still have to be managed by those former Great Zhou officials.
In this way, the problem of corruption cannot be solved.
The procuratorial departments in various localities have been busy these days, and the reason is also because of this.
Those officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty were corrupt and corrupt, and even after surrendering, they were unscrupulous, and they had to be proficient in everything.
This made the border people miserable, and they wrote to ask for a thorough investigation, and it was precisely because of these that Zhuge Liang had been busy recently.
Thinking of this, he immediately looked at Su Mo and said helplessly.
"It's still understaffed."
"I have asked my subordinates to start urgently training a group of officials, first to ensure the stability of the city."
"As for corruption and other problems, we can only take a break."
Looking at Zhuge Liang's expression, Su Mo was quite understanding, and he sighed.
"I know your difficulties, and I can understand your difficulties."
"Now that the border army is in such a difficult moment, we have to persevere."
"The problem of corruption can be put aside."
Zhuge Liang turned his head in surprise, he didn't expect Su Mo to agree with his opinion.
In his impression, Su Mo attaches great importance to the corruption of officials.
The procuratorial organs of the border army are also the most mysterious and strict departments, and Su Mo is responsible for all personnel transfers, and no one is qualified to meddle and question.
Even if he attaches so much importance to corruption, Su Mo is now willing to put this matter down, and it seems that he still has a good understanding of the current situation of the border army.
Looking at Zhuge Liang's puzzled expression, Su Mo smiled and asked in a joking tone.
"What? Do you really think I'm the shopkeeper and don't ask anything? ”
"Don't worry, do it boldly, I'll support you."
Hearing Su Mo's words, Zhuge Liang couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, and nodded happily.
Those who are courtiers are most afraid that the king will ignore the government and be stubborn.
Once you get to that point, everything becomes extremely troublesome and uncontrollable.
Now it seems that Su Mo is obviously not such a monarch.
A king who can fight well, is also good at dealing with people's livelihood, and can constantly develop all kinds of new equipment, such a king is a famous king through the ages wherever he is placed.
Even without his Zhuge Liang's help, Su Mo would definitely be able to handle it better, not to mention that now with his help, if he can't manage the border well, he is not qualified to call himself Wolong.
After reporting on government affairs, Zhuge Liang looked at Su Mo with some confusion and said suddenly.
"What's next?"
"Continue the synchronization of the four dynasties or give priority to the Great Zhou Dynasty?"
Su Mo rejected the first proposal without thinking about it, he walked to the sand table and said in a deep voice.
"The rest of the major dynasties only need to contain the enemy's main force."
"As long as you don't block us when you solve the Great Zhou Dynasty."
After speaking, he pointed to the sand table and said.
"The hinterlands of the Dawu Dynasty and the Xiongnu Dynasty are extremely vast, and if you want to rule these enemies, it is completely insufficient without millions of armies."
"Not only that, but these dynasties are now all strong and strong, and the whole people are united, and it is extremely troublesome to attack."
As he spoke, he turned his words, and the sword on his waist pointed directly at the imperial capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
"But the Great Zhou Dynasty was completely different."
"If the elite forces are mobilized to the Great Zhou Dynasty, the battle can be quickly resolved in a short period of time."
