Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty One:
Soon, a middle-aged man wearing a brocade robe was taken to the county government by the Jinyiwei.
"I pay homage to the lord."
"Get up, how much food do we have? If the army is going to go on a war, how much food can we take out?"
"Report to the lord, there is almost no spare food for our food. If the army goes to war, it will only squeeze out 50,000 troops for half a month's food."
After hearing Liu Feng’s question, the logistics camp’s manager reported truthfully.
Spring plowing has just begun, and the crops in the fields have just grown, and it is still early to get the crops. The grain under the logistics management must be persisted until then. Every grain must be carefully calculated. It is already the greatest limit to be able to squeeze out this little grain.
Unless they ignore the lives of the people from all over the country, they will also use their life-sustaining rations for war.
"It's only enough for 50,000 people for half a month, a little less."
Liu Feng frowned immediately, which was much less than he thought.
This little food may have been eaten up on the way of the march, and it is not enough to support the army in conquering various Wei troops.
Although it was a very plain sentence, Liu Feng said it, but the manager was so scared that he was sweating. He quickly knelt down and apologized, "The subordinates were incompetent and could only squeeze out these foods. This is thanks to the lord who transported back the batch of food from Gaohe Mansion a few days ago, otherwise it would be even less!"
"Why are you panic? A good lady cannot cook without rice. You can't blame you for this matter, go down."
Liu Feng waved his hand.
He naturally understood what the situation in the north is now. Although he had seized a lot of food from the hands of the Daqian and the Northern Wei some time ago, there were more people in the territory, and almost all the people living on the grain in his hands were living a huge amount of money. Especially in the current situation of difficulty in trade between the north and the south, every grain of food is very precious.
"Thank you lord!"
The manager hurriedly thanked him, and then wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.
With the expansion of Liu Feng's territory and the increase in power in his hands, his every word, action and action will bring people an invisible and powerful pressure, which is the power of authority.
······
Outside the county town, Bailianying camp.
"Brother, do you think the lord will agree to send troops?"
In a tent, Lin Ye asked, looking at Lin Sheng's back.
At this time, Lin Sheng was standing in front of a giant map screen, marking something with a brush on it.
Hearing his second brother's question, he put down his brush, was silent for a little while before speaking: "I can't tell you about this matter. After all, in addition to the army, the most important factor in determining whether the lord will send troops is the food and grass for logistics supply. We have just joined and don't know much about the situation here. If there is no food and grass, even the best plan will be a flower in the mirror and the moon in the water."
"The Black Armored Army occupies such a large territory, isn't it easy to squeeze out some granaries?"
Chen Ping looked at Lin Sheng and continued, "I think the lord should adopt the general's suggestion to send troops. In this way, the general can show his skills and we can take this opportunity to gain a foothold in the Bailian Camp without having to look at other people's faces every day."
Although they have become officers of the White Lotus Camp over the past few days, they have always been invincible with their military merits. In addition, the predecessor of the White Lotus Camp was the White Lotus Army, and they were enemies who had fought with their Red Feather Army, so they were always excluded and could not be integrated.
Among the people who just opposed Lin Sheng’s plan, a large number of them were officers from the White Lotus Camp.
"Chen Ping makes sense, but if the lord chooses to send troops, the position of the chief general is very important. The person in the army who can compete with the eldest brother for this position is General Yang Zong, the Zhenbei! This person can defeat the 150,000 Wei army with tens of thousands of black armored troops, which shows that his military use is very powerful and he is the eldest brother's biggest opponent."
Forestry analysis.
"Haha, second brother, you are wrong. On the contrary, Yang Zong is the person who is least threatening to me."
Lin Sheng returned to his seat and sat down, looking at the confused faces of everyone around him, and explained: "This time he went north, Yang Zong made great contributions and was named General Zhenbei for this. Think about it, how many people can be named General in the Black Armor Army? What's more, he is not a direct lineman. As the saying goes, wood is outstanding by Lin Feng will definitely destroy it. If he doesn't know how to temporarily hide his strength and come out to compete for the position of the main general, he will inevitably offend many people. What will happen? You should be able to think about the consequences."
Lin Bao suddenly slapped his thigh, "So that's it. No wonder Yang Zong and others didn't say anything in the county government today. I was quite puzzled at the time. Since Yang Zong could not become the main general, the position of the main general was the eldest brother."
"Third brother, you think things too simple. Even if Yang Zong doesn't compete for this position, we have many opponents, such as the side general Peng Datong, who is a strong enemy."
"Peng Datong? Impossible, he is just a reckless man. The strategy of the wheel of military strategy is comparable to that of the elder brother, unless the lord's eyes-"
"shut up!"
Lin Sheng's face changed and he suddenly scolded.
Not only him, but the others in the tent also changed their faces. Lin Ye looked at Lin Bao with a pale face and scolded: "Third brother, how many times did you ask me to say this before I could change this bad habit? Can you criticize your lord? Do you want to kill everyone?"
"It's not that serious. There are no outsiders here. Well, I was wrong. I will definitely not make it again next time."
Lin Bao whispered.
"It's better to remember. I believe everyone has heard a lot of the factory guards these days. They can be said to be omnipresent and are a group of lunatics. I don't want to bring you a fatal disaster because you are quick to speak for a while!"
Lin Sheng said solemnly with his face.
The atmosphere in the tent suddenly became a little heavy, and Lin Bao's face also became extremely ugly.
"Okay, let's discuss how to help the general fight for the position of the chief general."
Feeling the depressing atmosphere in the account, Chen Ping quickly changed the topic.
"Yes, I think the general's strengths should be used..."
······
Although Liu Feng did not explicitly say that he would adopt the strategy of attack instead of defense, in the following period, the army on Panhe Ningyang on the southern front began to be recruited in large numbers, and one troop transport ship after another arrived at Laiyang Prefecture from the two prefectures, and soon the entire Laiyang Prefecture almost turned into a large army camp.
"Yang Zong greets the lord!"
"General Yang doesn't have to be too polite. Do you know why I asked you to come?"
Liu Feng closed a note in his hand and asked with his head up.
"The last one dare not speculate."
Yang Zong clasped his fists and said.
"What do you think about Lin Sheng's strategy of attacking instead of defense?"
