Chapter 1520 The Great War Will Begin

"Okay, come up with a strategy to defeat the enemy in this matter as soon as possible.

Mr. Cao." Fifth Xinrou changed the subject and looked at the gray-haired old man Cao Bo.

Cao Bo quickly stepped forward, bowed and said:

"The official is here!"

"I see that the food and grass in the army can only last for more than a month. The war is imminent, but there are still some oversights in logistics. It doesn't seem good, right?"

Cao Bo shivered unconsciously. After all, it was his turn.

He said with a bitter look on his face:

"Sir, all the granaries in Jingling Road have been emptied, and all the food and grass that can be scraped are in the army.

The lower official sent several letters to the Ministry of Household Affairs, but the grain and grass transported to the front line were still in short supply.

I really can’t think of any more solutions.”

This time, Cao Bo was really tired. A small Jingling Road had hundreds of thousands of soldiers pouring into it within a few months. Now there are 200,000 troops stationed along the river.

The daily food and drink for these 200,000 troops is an astronomical amount. How can a Jingling Dao man cope with it?

The Ministry of Finance does not have much money, so it is trying its best to support the front line, but it is still not enough.

The white hair on Cao Bo's head is getting more and more worried, day and night.

"We serve His Majesty and are deeply favored by the Emperor. What we have to do is to solve your difficulties for Your Majesty. Mr. Cao, do you understand?"

Wu Xinrou's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a hint of knocking in her plain tone.

"Yes, that's what my lord taught you." Cao Bo trembled:

"My subordinates will definitely do their best to raise food and grass."

Fifth Xinrou casually closed the letter on the table and said:

"The officials at the Ministry of Revenue will try their best to urge them to allocate more money and food to support the front line.

Several nearby prefectures will also send written documents asking them to send all the grain and grass in the prefectures and counties to the front lines.

Your Excellency, your actions here cannot stop. The common people must have food in their hands. Find a way to get them to hand it over.

Ask the major aristocratic families, merchants, and grain accounts to donate grain. If you are really unwilling to donate, you can use some means~"

Fifth Xinrou's tone was somewhat meaningful.

Cao Bo asked cautiously: "Sir, isn't this good..."

"In emergency situations, you should do extraordinary things!" Fifth Xinrou said in a deep voice:

"If the frontline war fails, what use will the people's hearts have?

Mr. Cao, let’s go and do it!”

With Fifth Xinrou’s guarantee, Cao Bo finally nodded and said:

"No! I will rush back to Jingzhou City immediately to raise military supplies!"

The old man hurriedly walked out of the tent. After all, military rations were the top priority in the army and could not be neglected.

"General Wei, it's your turn." Fifth Xinrou smiled slightly: "Tell me about the situation in the army."

Wei Zong's voice is like a bell:

"In addition to the navy, Jingling Road also has 20,000 cavalry and 80,000 infantry, of which 30,000 are the elite Yulin Guards brought by General Dugu.

Tens of thousands of soldiers were divided into twelve large camps and camped along the river, stretching for dozens of miles, guarding the mouths of all dangerous rivers. If the rebels want to forcefully cross the river, the general will definitely give them a fatal blow!"

In fact, in the entire Canglong River battle situation, the two sides were generally in a confrontation. Because of the advantage of the navy, Zhou Jiaqing even had a vague upper hand.

Therefore, the Long Army not only had to train a naval force that could cross the river, but also guard the river bank to prevent it from being broken through by the Zhou Army.

"Um."

Wu Xinrou hummed lightly: "Jiang defense is the top priority. We can accept a few small defeats on the river and the loss of a few warships, but we will never allow the rebels to set foot on Jiangbei.

soil of!"

There was a trace of solemnity on Wu Xinrou's face, which was also Yuwen Xingchen's minimum requirement before he left the capital.

Confined all Zhou troops to the south of Canglong River.

"The last general understands! Jiang Fang has a problem, please take the last one's head!"

After all, Wei Zong was a military general from Longxi. Every word and deed of Wei Zong carried a murderous spirit, and he was very heroic.

"okay."

Fifth Xinrou waved her hand slightly: "Please step aside, Dugu Nan will stay for a while."

"I will finally retire!"

Wei Zong and Cai Chenkun retreated slowly, leaving only Dugu Nan still in the military tent.

When Dugu Nan saw a few people walking away, he said softly:

"My lord has sounded the alarm to the Cao family and the Cai family as soon as they arrived. I guess they don't dare to slack off in the war~"

As native nobles of Jingzhou, they have a certain influence in Jingzhou and even the entire Jingling Road.

After Dugu Nan arrived here, he had an obvious feeling that these two families often played tricks in some places in order to gain some benefits for their family.

Dugu Nan had no choice but to see through these methods without revealing them. After all, he was born in the Dugu family and could understand this phenomenon very well.

Fifth Xinrou said calmly:

"Your Majesty has just ascended the throne and needs the support of these people. It's okay to do some sneaky things, just don't go too far.

A proper beating can help them calm down."

Dugu Nan smiled knowingly, looked at Wu Xinrou's face and asked softly:

"Sir, is there anything else you want to tell me?"

As the second son of Dugu Xin, the young Dugu Nan has already shown his talents as a general. In his hands, an army of tens of thousands has become an elite force, and he is a trump card in the hands of Fifth Xinrou.

Fifth Xinrou closed her eyes slightly, leaned back on the chair as if she was a little tired, and murmured softly:

"I received a secret report from His Majesty this morning that we were defeated on the Liang Army front.

Yu Wenlin died in the battle, and Zhuang Quan retreated with his remaining troops."

"What."

Dugu Nan's eyes bulged: "So fast? They couldn't hold on for a month?"

Now Dugu Nan understands why Wu Xinrou left him alone. This matter must be classified as top secret. Once spread, it will have a great impact on the morale of the army.

Fifth Xinrou showed a rare look of helplessness:

"Actually, before the war, I expected that the two of them would be defeated, but I didn't expect that they would lose the mountain city and Pingding Pass so quickly.

Now it seems that the three rebels and the Liang Army are the real thorns in our side."

A fierce fighting spirit flashed in Dugu Xin's eyes, and he said in a deep voice:

"Sir, let me go to the north, and I will stop the Liang army!"

"No, I will keep your cavalry in my hands for use." Fifth Xinrou said firmly:

"Ten thousand or twenty thousand elite cavalry may not even make a splash when brought to the battlefield in the north, but in the south of the Yangtze River, this is a big killer!"

"Then are you going to go to Shannan Road to direct the war?"

"No need, the defenders within two lines can still resist a wave of Liang troops. I can't escape the battle in Jiangnan." Fifth Xinrou said with concentration:

"The two areas can be lost, and the garrison can be killed. As long as it can hold off the Liang army for half a year, it will be enough!"

The words spoken by Fifth Xinrou, who looked like a scholar, were equally cold-blooded.

"It looks like we need to defeat those guys on the other side of the river as soon as possible." Dugu Nan said fiercely.

"Yes~"

Fifth Xinrou murmured, and then said in a deep voice:

"Tell Cai Chenkun that the navy will go into battle in five days. I want to see with my own eyes the combat power of Qingyang Navy!"

"promise!"
