Chapter 1297 How to solve the problem of food and grass?
"This is on the surface." Feng Danyuan said.
"On the surface?" Wei Lang was surprised, but what about in private? The prime minister, like the three princes, is a civil servant and has no military power. This time, the right prime minister brought 30,000 troops, which was specially approved by the emperor to control floods.
"Da Yong has a total of 400,000 troops, of which the emperor's imperial guards force is 100,000, 200,000 are in the hands of King Yu, and the remaining 100,000 are secretly controlled by Linze. This time to control the flood, the 30,000 people allocated by the emperor were from King Yu.
Therefore, the number of soldiers Linze can use is at least one hundred thousand." Feng Danyuan explained.
Wei Lang blurted out: "How do you know so clearly?"
Feng Danyuan asked, "Don't you know?"
Wei Lang: "..."
He shouldn't have asked this question. An outside proton knew the strength of Dayong's troops better than he did. He was simply humiliating himself.
Fortunately, Feng Danyuan did not dwell on this matter, but continued what he had just said: "Linze and I have arranged our troops in the past two days. The troop deployment order has been issued. Sixty thousand soldiers can arrive in the next two days at the earliest."
Wei Zi gave him a strange look: When she went to Linze for a follow-up consultation yesterday, the two of them were still staring at each other. When did they reach an agreement?
"I borrowed Xia Linze's seal." Feng Danyuan returned her eyes lightly.
Wei Zi: "..." Well, the process is not important.
Wei Lang: "..." Come on, Chinese writing is broad and profound.
"How to solve the problem of food and grass?" Wei Zi raised another difficulty.
At other times, food and grass could be provided on the spot, but now that floods have destroyed the farmland and cottages, the first problem facing us is the problem of food.
"Borrow it from King Yu." When he mentioned this, Feng Danyuan became a little angry: Linze fell out with him yesterday over borrowing food.
What are you arguing about? Who caused this situation now, do you want to kill him or not bury him? Let him borrow some food and turn against him!
And even face-turning!
"Where did King Yu get the food?" Wei Lang asked naively.
Feng Danyuan glanced at him, do you still want to ask this question?
Wei Lang was stunned. What did this look mean? Is there a problem with this question?
"King Yu is in charge of an army of 200,000 people. If he can't even get food and grass, then he shouldn't be around anymore." Feng Danyuan replied calmly.
"Where did he get food from?" From the imperial court? Wei Lang hadn't fully reacted yet.
"There are many ways." Feng Danyuan curled his lips.
"How did you know?"
"Talk from experience." After all, Feng Danyuan was once the commander-in-chief of an 800,000-strong army. If the army cannot be self-reliant, how can it still have the strength to go to the battlefield?
Wei Lang: "..."
If I reply, it means I haven’t replied. It’s really a lonely question.
"Would King Yu be willing to borrow food?" Wei Zi saw that the atmosphere was not right and quickly returned to the topic.
"Linze will solve it," Feng Danyuan replied.
Wei Lang opened his mouth, then immediately closed it.
Silence is golden. He won't ask questions like "Why does the right minister have to solve it?", as long as someone solves it.
"Did he agree?" Wei Zi felt that this matter might not be that easy.
"I agree."
"Really?" Wei Zi frowned.
"Agreed." Feng Danyuan immediately removed the uncertain words.
Wei Zi: "..." OK.
"What do you need me to do?"
Wei Lang felt that he had put his fingerprints on the alliance letter after all, so he couldn't just be a bystander, right?
Since the right minister has taken care of the manpower, food and grass matters, he can always do the rest of the work. After all, he is also a pillar talent who gets "excellent" every year in official evaluations.
