At night, the lights in Guo Mansion were brightly lit, and the front hall was noisy. One man after another was asking the people around him to drink and eat meat. But in the backyard, it seemed very quiet. At a glance, the house was full of people.
There was no one there, only a guest room to the east, and three figures could be vaguely seen chatting about something inside.
This room is Lin Heng's guest room in the Guo Mansion, and the people in the room are Lin Heng, Guo Jing, and Huang Rong.
In the room, Lin Heng took a sip of tea and said to the two of them: "Brother Guo, although you are stationed in Xiangyang, Song Ting's support is simply not enough. If someone interferes, Xiangyang cannot be defended."
Shaking his head, Lin Heng looked at Guo Jing and said seriously: "Brother Guo, have you ever thought about the future?"
"In the future? This..." Guo Jing's face was a little embarrassed. He was just such a person, he would do whatever he was determined to do, but if you ask him to do it comprehensively, it would be unrealistic. After all, he is not a smart person.
Seeing this, Lin Heng shook his head. He knew without asking that Guo Jing must have never thought about it. I am afraid that what he was thinking in his heart was to be a monk who beats the clock. In this regard, I am afraid that even Huang Rong has no way. After all, she
I love Guo Jing so much, he takes priority in everything.
"Brother Guo, Mrs. Guo, this battle in Xiangyang shocked me a lot. I thought about it carefully and I have several ways to tell you. If you two think it is feasible, then I will do it."
Lin Heng stopped pretending and spoke frankly. When Guo Jing heard this, he was overjoyed and said: "Brother Lin's intelligence is not inferior to Rong'er's. Your method must be very good. Please tell me."
Lin Heng nodded and said: "Although your brother Guo is in charge of everything in Xiangyang now, the actual control is in the hands of Song Ting. If nothing else, let's talk about the group of sergeants under you. If Song Ting has an order,
Let them leave Xiangyang, can Brother Guo keep them?"
"This..." Guo Jing hesitated. Looking at his expression, Lin Heng knew what he was thinking, and said: "For ordinary sergeants, the so-called national justice is not important. I think as long as Mr. Lu in the city speaks,
Then the first choice of these sergeants will definitely not be Brother Guo." At this point, he looked at Guo Jing with his eyes like sharp swords, and said: "My first way is to cultivate my own power! In order to be able to truly control
Xiangyang, for the future source of troops, it is necessary to cultivate its own power."
"Don't we have the Beggar Clan and various martial arts people to help us?" Guo Jing was a little unable to react, but Huang Rong on the side nodded, obviously she heard the meaning of Lin Heng's words.
"Brother Guo, martial arts people are martial arts people. Most of them will not lose their lives for the sake of their family and country. But the army is different. An army with strict military discipline. As long as you give the order, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, they will
Go on without hesitation. But can martial arts people do it?" Lin Heng's rhetorical question left Guo Jing speechless. Although he was stupid, he was not stupid, so he naturally knew what was different during this period.
"And to control Xiangyang, just sergeants are not enough. You also need internal affairs talents. Only in this way can you command the army to fight with more confidence. Otherwise, you can take care of everything, and you won't be able to manage anything." As he said, Lin Heng said.
After draining the glass of wine, he threw it on the table and said, "My second method is to supplement the first method, which is to establish my own school."
"School? What does this have to do with establishing a school?" Guo Jing frowned again. His bluntness gave Lin Heng a headache, and he had to explain to him in detail: "What is the best way to recruit talents? Not looking around, but
Cultivate yourself. The talents you cultivate are not only loyal, but also can cultivate whatever talents you lack. The school I am talking about is not an ordinary school, but a school specially established for the military and internal affairs. Brother Guo, as long as the school
Once it is built, you can put the Beggar Clan disciples into it to study. Those who are interested in military affairs can study military affairs, and those who are interested in internal affairs can study internal affairs. Moreover, through the school, you can also take in orphans, refugees, and the origin of the organization.
Continuous talent.”
"What a great idea!" Huang Rong, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but admire her. Lin Heng's methods in the school really impressed her.
Lin Heng smiled at her and said: "This method is good, but it requires a lot of materials and manpower. If you two find it troublesome, you can try it out in the beggar gang or the army first." After saying this, Lin Heng said
He then mentioned his third method and said: "Brother Guo, there are a lot of war horses in Xiangyang City now. I think you can also train some cavalry."
"Well. In the past few years, I have collected a lot of war horses and trained many cavalry. There are more than 2,000 people in all." Guo Jing answered Lin Heng's question, which made Lin Heng very satisfied and said: "Brother Guo has been living since he was a child.
In Mongolia, because I know the Mongolian tactics, that is cavalry. Large regiments have big tactics, and small ones also have smaller tactics. For defending the city, cavalry is not most useful, but Brother Guo can definitely use it.
These cavalrymen went out to harass the Mongolian-controlled counties and rob the supplies there. If possible, it would be best to rob the Han population as well."
Although Guo Jing was stationed in Xiangyang and killed countless people, to be honest, he was not a person with a strong desire to attack. If you asked him to guard Xiangyang, he died for a reason, but if you asked him to attack others, he would hesitate.
.No, after Lin Heng said his third method, Guo Jing didn't know how to answer.
Seeing this, Lin Heng sighed and said: "Brother Guo, do you think Song Ting can defeat Mongolia?"
"This..." Guo Jing wanted to say yes, but he couldn't get the words out of his mouth.
"In this case, why can't Brother Guo step forward and lead everyone to defeat Mongolia? I believe that with you leading everyone and Mrs. Guo assisting you, we will definitely be able to create a world. When the time comes, it will be possible to establish a separate country.
"
Lin Heng's words not only shocked Guo Jing, but Huang Rong also changed her face. Although she couldn't stand Song Ting, she had never thought about overthrowing Song Ting. But now Lin Heng's words meant that they would replace him.
?
Lin Heng also knew that Guo Jing and Huang Rong might not be able to accept what he said, so he retreated and said, "Well, you two don't think so, so we won't mention it, then it's okay to recover the country. Brother Guo, after fighting Xiangyang,
You can definitely break into Youzhou. When the time comes, any land you recover will be handed over to the imperial court. I believe the imperial court will not say anything at that time."
"Brother Jing, Brother Lin is right. We are just too passive in defense. If we can attack everywhere, Mongolia will not attack us unscrupulously. I think this method is feasible!" Huang Rong comforted Guo Jing on one side after hearing this.
She was very smart and knew that problems would arise sooner or later if she just stuck to it. Now that Lin Heng's method had solved the problem, she naturally agreed with her hands. But she also knew that her husband was pedantic, so she helped to comfort him.
After being persuaded by the two of them, Guo Jing reluctantly nodded and agreed.
Lin Heng was very happy to see this and continued: "I have a fourth way, which is to establish a base behind enemy lines."
"Oh? Brother Lin, please tell me!" Guo Jing didn't speak this time. He was obviously frightened by Lin Heng, but Huang Rong became interested and asked immediately.
Lin Heng smiled and explained: "The so-called base area behind enemy lines is to wedge a nail in the center of the enemy. I propose to set up a school. In addition to providing you with talents, I also hope that Mrs. Guo will give the Beggar Gang disciples a good training. When they are qualified, they will be completely
You can send them behind enemy lines, contact those with lofty ideals who are dissatisfied with Mongolia, and attack the towns in the hinterland of Mongolia together. The best way is to choose a few places that are easy to defend and difficult to attack and become permanent territories. To put it bluntly, this method is the method of bandits. We
It is absolutely possible to send some people out and let them enter the hinterland of Mongolia to work as bandits."
The smart Huang Rong was quick to understand and immediately realized the benefits of Lin Heng's method. Think about it, after dozens or even hundreds of bandits appeared in the hinterland of Mongolia, what would it be like? It can be said that every bandit
It doesn't take many people, as long as there are two or three hundred people, then dozens of groups, hundreds of groups add up to tens of thousands of people. When the Mongolian army marched into Xiangyang, these bandits suddenly united and attacked their rear, so Xiangyang could not even reach the capital.
You can get out of the siege without moving.
"What a good idea, what a good idea! Brother Lin is so powerful. He came up with four simple methods. It's really good!" Huang Rong admired her face. At this time, when she looked at Lin Heng, she was full of respect.
Lin Heng said modestly, "In the end, it's a matter of food and grass. Xiangyang is on the front line and cannot get more food and grass. Even if food is planted in the surrounding wasteland, everything will be in vain once the Mongolian army comes.
.My last solution is for you to secretly raise qualifications, go inland to purchase large amounts of land, and gather the disabled soldiers, old and weak soldiers to the rear to farm land and provide food and grass for the army. In this case, you can have nothing.
No worries."
Lin Heng's five methods are not only good, but as he said, with these five methods, it is enough for Guo Jing to dominate the world. Unfortunately, he will not do this. But this does not prevent him from agreeing.
Lin Heng's method, after all, these five methods have real benefits for garrisoning in Xiangyang.
The three of them discussed it all night and finally settled on some details. Tomorrow, Guo Jing will open a military school with the army, and Huang Rong will also ask Elder Lu to open a school in the Beggar Clan. During this period, Lin Heng also received a
The mission is to take in orphans, teach them knowledge, and reserve talents for the army.
