Chapter 175: The army is crushing the realm! The inside story of the test!(1/3)

With Lu Zhi’s suggestion, Li Gan planned to stroll around the capital and be intimate with these big babies who came from afar.

However, after these few days, he did not meet a few "dream people", but he had sex with Zheng Guan and Yan Zhenqing several times.

As winter approaches, cool breeze blows from the north, and the weather in the capital is gradually getting colder, but even so, it is a warm early winter compared to previous years.

Wu State, Yangzhou, or Dagan, Yangzhou.

As winter comes, the weather here is getting colder day by day.

The imperial guards can no longer fight in thin clothes, and now they must distribute cotton coats, which invisibly adds pressure to the logistics of the imperial guards.

The city center, the county magistrate's office, which originally belonged to the county magistrate of Wu, has now become the place where the imperial guards are stationed.

"It's ridiculous to launch the attack like this."

Yuchi Gong looked at the map hanging on the back wall and frowned and said in a deep voice: "To the west of Zhenjiang, there is a canal that leads directly to Gusu, Wudu. Why should we talk too much about its importance? The Wu Kingdom will definitely guard against it!"

"And with this canal, it is even more convenient for them to mobilize troops. It is definitely not less difficult than capturing Jinling when crossing the river."

Many generals nodded in recognition, and Yang Lin also said in a deep voice: "It is better to make preparations for both ways. On the one hand, cross the river here to restrain the attention of the Wu navy."

"On the other hand, we must send all the troops to advance eastward, attack Chongzhou and Dongzhou, and until the seaside, so that the Yue Kingdom can transport grain from the sea."

The generals were silent for a moment, but Zhao Kuangyi, who was still present, couldn't help but say, "Didn't the documents sent by the Ministry of War say? It's better not to transport grain from the sea!"

"Even if winter begins, the storm will not stop this year. What if you encounter the sailors and storm of Wu on the sea, and most of the food and grass will disappear by then?"

Because of the "Shilianghe Battle", many generals present looked down upon him or were disgusted with him.

But now this guy is responsible for the transportation of food and grass, and this problem is within his authority, so he cannot shut up.

But even so, Yuchi Gong couldn't help but say, "Duke Zhao Liang, have you not woken up?"

When Zhao Kuangyi heard the word "Grain Supervisor", his black face suddenly felt like a layer of ashes on the bottom of the pot was covered with dust.

It's even darker.

Originally, when the flowers were in front of the moon and when the military tent was discussing affairs, you called General Zhao, and now you are the food supervision, right?

Yuchi Gong ignored his expression and sneered and continued: "When winter comes, the wind and waves gradually fade, which is something that all three-year-old children of Wu and Yue know about it!"

"Your Majesty just had a dream. If you take it seriously, won't you wake up yet?"

A burst of laughter came from the hall immediately.

Zhao Kuangyi's black face was also black and red.

He actually didn't believe it much, but he was just like a quarrel.

Everyone skipped this topic one after another, as if they were telling a joke and didn't care.

Yang Lin noticed the expressions of many generals and frowned slightly: "No matter what, let the Yue Kingdom transport some of the food and grass first to see if the sea is really calm."

"How can I try this?"

Yuchi Gong turned his head and frowned at him: "Transport grain at sea, the grain ships of Yue Kingdom were going to hide from the people of Wu Kingdom."

"What I need is to set out unexpectedly and transport all the food and supplies needed by the army. If you try again, you will inevitably be noticed by the Wu Kingdom!"

"If their sailors were alert and blocked at sea, how could they transport food?"

“Wouldn’t that be better?”

The person who spoke was Han Qinhu, and he frowned and stared at the map: "Although the sailors in Wu were powerful, they were only tens of thousands in the final analysis, and the number was not large."

"If they dare to continue to disperse, then we will force the Yangtze River to cross!"

Everyone present was a first-class general. After hearing what he said, they were stunned and began to think about the possibility, and talked about it in a long and talked.

"It seems that it is OK, or as the document sent by the Ministry of War said, the grain ships from Hengshan, Jiangxia and other counties were ordered to be transported. If the Wu navy learned the news, it would definitely go to stop it."

"We must be concerned about both the sea and the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. Their troops will inevitably be insufficient. Then we will distribute troops along the coast of the imperial guards. As long as we find a flaw, we can directly cross the river."

"The imperial guards advancing east can try to cross the river in Jiangyin. As long as they cross the river and reach Yanling, they can flatten and attack Gusu City! The Wu Kingdom will definitely not dare to be on guard!"

"Haha, they must be scared!"

"This method is wonderful, and as long as the troops are dispersed, our food and grass pressure can be reduced a little..."

Yang Lin and Yuchi Gong listened to the discussion in the audience and looked at each other with different expressions.

Then Yang Lin turned to the generals in the tent and spoke, "It seems that you all agree with this strategy?"

"No," Han Qinhu nodded and said, "If you divide the troops like this, you will definitely suffer the least amount of damage."

"And if we can cross the river as soon as possible, when the people of Wu saw us divided our troops to advance east and west, they would definitely be able to guess our intentions. As long as they divided our troops out, we could try to cross the river and make them lose their composure!" Yang Ye also said in a deep voice.

Subsequently, many other generals expressed their approval one by one.

"good."

Yang Lin nodded and glanced at the generals in the hall: "Since it has been decided, then deploy as soon as possible. You must cross the river before New Year's Eve!"

All the generals present should be.

But since we want to divide the troops, we have to discuss one, two, and three.

Finally, it was decided to advance eastward from the two guards' imperial guards and attack the East China Sea to meet the food and grass from Yue Kingdom.

Another guards advanced westward to pick up the canal ships.

The other imperial guards began to diverge, forcing the navy of Wu to spread their defense on the river.

At the end of the deployment, Yang Lin turned his head again, looked at the three special generals here, and said in a deep voice: "Governor Zhao Liang, General Yuwen, and General Su, the army is now divided into three groups, and each of them has the important task of transporting grain."

"What do you think?"

When court officials call each other, they usually call their highest title.

Although Yu Wen and Su Dingfang were both supervising the transportation of food and grass, they were generals themselves, so they naturally had to call them generals.

But Zhao Er did not have any general position, so it was normal to call him "Food Supervisor".

"I won't go to the East China Sea." Zhao Kuangyi shook his head in anger.

Yu Wenji sneered: "I'll go to the west and pick up the imperial court's canal ship."

When I received the canal ship, this job was so fat that it was so oily that it was no problem to make a deal with the situation.

Su Dingfang hesitated for a moment, but did not argue with him, and responded: "Then I will lead the Right Weiwei Guard all the way east and pick up the grain ships of Yue."

As long as the grain ships from Yue Kingdom are transported here, it must be good.

Yang Lin nodded and finally looked at Zhao Kuangyi: "Since that's the case, Zhao Liangshu will continue to follow the army. After crossing the river, you will be responsible for discussing the land transportation of grain with Yue State."

In fact, Zhao Kuangyi had no choice, because the other two had their own imperial guards, but he was now a bare-legged "grain governor" and could only follow the army.

The reason he said so before was probably to make himself feel better, right?

"General Su, you go east, be sure to go as soon as possible."

Yang Lin looked at Su Dingfang and solemnly reminded: "The imperial guards don't have much food and grass, and the shipping speed is the fastest."

"We must receive food and grass from Yueguo as soon as possible and supply it to the army."

Su Dingfang nodded solemnly: "I understand."

Yang Lin looked at him, then turned to look at Yu Wen and said, "General Yu Wen, there was news before that the remaining troops of Chu were unwilling to give up and wanted to restore the country and regain Yingdu."

"If those people really can capture Yingdu, they will definitely continue to advance westward with the intention of taking away more territory."

"But now those places are from the Wu Kingdom and from the court, so they cannot be allowed to take away the land and cities of the court."

“That’s natural.”

Yu Wenhua and grinned, "They come and let them never come back!"

Military orders were heard from the mansion, and the camp outside the city began to move slowly. The villagers were wearing slightly thin coats, transporting food, grass, and armour, and moving first...

Daqian Capital City.

As November comes, this year is gradually coming to an end.

But the first snow of this winter has not yet arrived.

Some people are happy about this and some are worried.

The people who are happy are the lower class. This winter is not too cold, so obviously you don’t have to spend too much money to buy charcoal to keep warm.

What is worried about is the people below. If it doesn’t snow yet, will it be a year of drought next year?

What should I do if the grain harvest is done?

In the farming society, we really don’t just say it casually.

Li Qian has been running around the capital these days, but he has not noticed these things because his focus is always on those juren.

After November, it means that the year end is getting closer.

Except for Juren who are very close to the capital, most Juren will still arrive in the capital before the New Year to prepare for the examination.

Because the imperial court had conducted early examinations in previous years, and the March examinations were advanced to February several times, most people would come early to be on the safe side.

Li Qian was sitting in a wide carriage, wearing a silver rat fur coat of appropriate size, which was tailor-made for him by Chen Leyi, and was wearing a thin black cotton coat under the fur.
