Yunwang Mansion, conference hall.

It's still the place it used to be, but not all the people it used to be.

The military has not changed much, and the eldest and second are still Ding Hongguang and Guan Ning.

However, after the anti-corruption reshuffle some time ago, many people have disappeared on the civilian side.

The former county lieutenant has become the county commander, the former county lieutenant has become the county magistrate, and the county lieutenant is the newcomer Chen You.

The crowd took their seats.

It used to be Jiang He, but now it is replaced by Zhu Tuo, the county magistrate, to preside over the meeting.

Knock knock!

Two dull hammer knocks sounded, and the scene fell silent.

A board was erected behind Zhao Jun's position at this moment, and the board was covered by a black cloth, and although everyone was curious, they didn't dare to make a sound.

Zhao Jun stood up and waved his hand, and Wang Huaien behind him immediately pulled the black down, and the things behind the black cloth also appeared in front of everyone.

A large blackboard with a huge chapter of maps pinned to a huge pair of rice paper.

Among them, the Wa country side was also deliberately magnified.

Zhao Jun got up, picked up the prepared teaching rod, pointed in the direction of the Wa Kingdom, and said to everyone:

"This place, that is, the Wa Kingdom, is in the southeast of my Great Song Dynasty, it usually takes half a month to sail by boat, if you happen to encounter a tailwind, you can get there in ten days."

Speaking of this, Zhao Jun put down the teaching rod in his hand and said aloud to everyone:

"As we all know, the southeast of my Great Song Dynasty has been repeatedly invaded by Japanese pirates, and they have been burned, killed and looted ashore, and all these Japanese pirates have come from here.

Their kingdom, the kingdom of Wa! ”

Zhao Jun paused, picked up the whip, pointed to Iwami's place and said: "But these are not the purpose of this king to summon you here today, and I don't have time to give you these popular science, what I want to tell you today is that in this place!" ”

Zhao Jun vigorously pointed at Iwami's place with the teaching rod in his hand and said: "This is Iwami, the poorest country in the Wa Kingdom, with a population of less than a thousand people, and it is a place where other surrounding countries are unwilling to take it into their hands, for fear of being dragged down by his poverty."

However, it is such a place, but there is a treasure in the world - silver mines! ”

He is not an ordinary silver mine, at this time he can produce a huge silver mine of 6 million taels per year!

It can be mined for at least a hundred years!

Zhao Jun cut the railway.

And his words immediately caused everyone in the audience to exclaim, and everyone looked at the small place on the map with blazing eyes, and their eyes seemed to be bright!

Zhao Jun is very satisfied with everyone's performance, only with greed as a driving force, everyone will work towards the same goal.

Zhao Jun drew the teaching rod in his hand in the direction of Nagasaki and nodded:

"That's right! As you might think, this king also covets this silver mine, so this king has decided to send troops to grab it!

How could a mere widow be qualified to possess such a heaven-sent treasure?

They are only worthy of mining miners!

Right now! ”

Zhao Jun put down the teaching rod in his hand, propped his hands on the table in front of him, leaned forward, scanned everyone in the hall with a pair of aggressive eyes, and asked in a deep voice:

"Attacking the Wa Kingdom and robbing the Ishimi Silver Mine, who is in favor? Who is against! ”

There was silence in the hall for a while.

Then there was a burst of uniform shouts.

"Yes! Approve! Approve! ”

Zhao Jun smiled with satisfaction, stretched his hands to the sky, and then clenched his fists violently, shouting:

"Since ancient times, the treasure of heaven and earth, the virtuous live in it, and now I raise volunteers in Yunzhou, cross the ocean, and avenge the invasion of the Japanese invaders for the coastal people of the Great Song Dynasty!

The Master of Kings! The Righteous Division, too! ”

Well, the justice of this army is also there!

The officials were even more excited.

Bursts of cheers rang out:

"Revenge! Avenge! Avenge! ”

……

At the ensuing meeting, the people began to discuss the route of the march against the Wa Kingdom.

First of all, it must not be possible to go from the Guannei, not to mention whether the large-scale entry of the Yunzhou Army into the customs will cause panic among some people in the imperial court and thus do things in the back, even if the distance from the Guannai is too great for the logistics pressure of the army.

After discussion, everyone immediately chose the sea route, and the army was poisoned, on the one hand, it could just deter the body poison, and it could also provide some food and cannon fodder for the body poison.

That's right, it's cannon fodder, this time it's almost equivalent to a national war, if you want to go to Iwami, you must go to Nagasaki, if you go down to Nagasaki, you will block the gateway of the Japanese country, and the Japanese country will be desperate.

In order to reduce casualties, Zhao Jun decided to gather a group of cannon fodder troops from the poisonous people to consume the Japanese state.

Anyway, it's your own vassal country, and the boss wants to beat people, how can you, the little brother, do it without troops?

Have you not been beaten hard enough?

In addition, in addition to the cannon fodder of body poison, it is also necessary to have a certain combat ability of the co-subordinate army, and it just so happens that the Tatar side has a difficult time because they can't attack the Great Song Dynasty because they surrender themselves, although they have opened a mutual market, but it is not given for free.

It is to be exchanged for cattle, sheep and horses, and if the weather is bad and the cattle and wool die a lot, those who should be starved will starve.

In this expedition, a group of coerced troops were recruited from the grassland, on the one hand, to weaken the young and strong forces on the grassland, and on the other hand, to get some combat effectiveness to assist in fighting together.

After deliberation among the people, it was finally decided that this time to go out to the Wa Kingdom, the Yunzhou army would send 100,000 troops as the main force, recruit another 100,000 co-enslaved troops from the Tatar steppe, and add another 300,000 to the poisonous servant army in the territory of the body poison.

A total of 500,000 troops marched.

The vanguard army will first set out from the port of Pingba and go straight to the port of Nagasaki in the Japanese country.

Landing in Nagasaki, Nagasaki immediately directly captured the entire northern island of the Japanese country, and then used the six countries as the forward base of the army, and first stationed it for defense.

After the arrival of the large armies one after another, they will go south together to attack the mountain country of Kyushu, the main island of the Wa Kingdom, and then destroy the Hiro Province and the Shimane Province and completely take the Iwami Silver Mountain into their arms.

The plan is done, but the army is not simply going out.

The 500,000-strong army went on an expedition to the Japanese country, not to mention anything else, weapons and equipment had to be prepared, and military rations had to be prepared, which was still an astronomical amount.

A war of hundreds of thousands of people, still so far from the homeland, the cost will undoubtedly be greater.

But Zhao Jun didn't care, because Yunzhou County took it out!

Weapons and equipment, although Yunzhou has recently been iron, but that is relative, civil development needs.

The iron that the army uses to build weapons can still be taken out.

As for the food, not to mention, since the capture of the three counties of Nanli, Woye, and Yoer, the grain in the hands of the forces under Zhao Jun has been more than one day a day.

His subordinates and the people couldn't eat even if they tried their best.

Now that the time has come to July, the autumn harvest is still a few months away.

If you can't finish the food, you can't eat it at all.

Nowadays, what is worse in Yunzhou County is not grain, not iron, but reserves such as gold and silver, and what is worse is manpower.

And all of these, attacking the Japanese kingdom will be all there!

The gold and silver that robbed the Japanese came back as reserves, the women who robbed the Japanese came back to give birth to Dingkou, and the men who robbed the Japanese came back as miners! Even the land of the Wa Kingdom can be snatched back to grow food!

In Zhao Jun's eyes, this country is full of treasures!

First of all, there is the issue of food and the army entering the body poison, and after the meeting that day, Yunzhou County immediately sent a letter to the body poison, which was for the body poison king.

After Wang Cezhi received the letter, he immediately got up and went to the Poison Palace.
