These two should become the beliefs of every soldier, and they will not hesitate to sacrifice their lives and blood for this."
"I don't know whether I am a wise master or not, and whether I am worthy of your protection. I just want to unify the world again and restore a peaceful and prosperous era to all living beings in the world. I believe you can make up your own minds about right and wrong.
But the folks standing behind us and the relatives and friends far away in Guanzhong are definitely worthy of your sacrifice and blood. Are you willing to work with me to save them?"
"Yes, yes!"
Seeing everyone's excitement, Bai Zhan stood up at the right time: "From this moment on, Your Majesty is our faith. The Qin Dynasty will last for ten thousand years, and Your Majesty will last for ten thousand years."
"The Qin Dynasty will last ten thousand years, Your Majesty will last ten thousand years!"
"Okay, I have written a military program. From now on, I will hang it outside the commander's tent and recite it after daily drills, so that everyone knows where my responsibilities are as a soldier!"
........
After returning to the palace from the military camp, Li Feng thought about the current situation. According to his understanding of history, Xiang Yu had moved the capital to Pengcheng and Tian Qi was about to rebel.
I just don’t know what’s going on with Liu Bang now. The land of Bashu has been robbed by him. Is he still the king of Han?
If Liu Bang is still named the King of Han, according to Xiang Yu's nature and Liu Bang's treachery, he should find a way to recapture Bashu at this time. Then wouldn't it be the secret crossing of Chencang in history...
Thinking of this, Li Feng sent an order to Prime Minister Li Bin, Taiwei Bai Zhan, General Political Commissar Wang Chong, Chief Situ Mengrui, and Inspector Su Dusu to come and see him.
"Your Majesty, with such morale and such an army, they really have the momentum to move forward." Bai Zhan and other generals looked extremely happy.
In their opinion, His Majesty the Emperor is truly worthy of being the Emperor. After the military camp's words, the morale of the army instantly improved to a higher level. Although an afternoon has passed, everyone is still in a state of excitement.
"Well, the faith issue has been solved, and there are two important things left now."
"Your Majesty, please make it clear."
"When I burned down the plank road before, I said that one day, I will take you to find a new road out. I studied the map carefully a few days ago and found that in addition to the plank road, there is a small road from Bashu to Guanzhong.
The name is Chen Cang, and it has never been known to anyone. I have verified it with local people and it is confirmed without a doubt."
Hearing the news, Bai Zhan stood up excitedly: "Is it true? That's great. I will ask Zhan Dong to come out."
Li Feng shook his head: "Our new army has not yet been trained and the time has not come yet, so this matter is not urgent yet."
"So, what does your Majesty mean?" Meng Rui looked at Li Feng doubtfully.
"Just because we don't go out doesn't mean that the enemy can't find the intersection to come in and attack us. So what I mean is to send a strong force to the Chencang intersection in advance to build fortifications to prevent the enemy from sneak attacks."
"Who does Your Majesty want to send?"
"Su Du, you have many experiences of holding on, are you willing to go?"
"I am willing to go!"
"Today, the new army is still training, and the veterans need to maintain public order in Bashu and Shu, so I can only allocate five thousand soldiers and horses to you, and Liu Bang's army may number 100,000, so you are unable to defeat them and can only outwit them.
"
"This... I will do my best, but I will fight to the death."
Li Feng sighed: "How many times have I told you, don't talk about death lightly? You all have a hobby of drinking fake wine, and you will die at every turn. I don't have many people available to me. What should I do if you die?"
"
"Chen... Chen... Nuo..." Su Du was a little at a loss when he saw that Li Feng had a tendency to fall out.
Li Feng smiled slightly: "Things are not as bad as you think. Chencang is just a small road, and the army cannot spread out at all. As long as you guard the important passes, you can achieve the effect of one man blocking the pass and ten thousand others unable to open it.
In addition, there are many poisonous insects, snakes and ants in Sichuan. I heard that there are many people in Shu who are good at this. You can ask them for help. They can set up many traps along the way, release more poisonous insects and snakes, and set up many checkpoints. I predict that Liu Bang will suffer too much.
Don’t dare to go too deep.”
"promise!"
"At this time in the defensive battle, you can mobilize your soldiers to come up with more cunning schemes and poisonous schemes. As long as you can hold on, you can use any despicable means."
With that said, Li Feng handed Su Du a handwritten note he had written last night: "I have some information on city defense and camp building methods here. I accidentally obtained them from an ancient ruins in my dream. It is said that they are still there."
What Jiang Taigong passed down may be useful to you."
Su Du took it, as if he had found a treasure. Li Feng looked a little funny.
The so-called Jiang Taigong's Notes is pure nonsense. Li Feng only borrowed advanced methods from later dynasties, and some of them were even copied from novels.
Su Du took the order and left, and Li Feng continued: "One more thing. I went to the military camp today and found that most of the weapons used by the soldiers were old and not sharp enough. They lacked strong bows, crossbows and sharp weapons for attacking fortresses.
Especially for new recruits, many of them don’t even have a long gun, and they don’t have a complete set of individual equipment. How can this be done?”
"Meng Rui, I'll leave this matter to you. You can set up a supervision bureau to purchase all the gold and iron ore in Bashu land in large quantities and develop sharp weapons for combat use."
"At the same time, you need to organize manpower to mine salt and iron ore to ensure sufficient supply at all times."
As he talked, Li Feng remembered that later generations seemed to have discovered a large oil well in the Sichuan Basin. The oil was produced in a very shallow location. It has not been developed in any way and might overflow from the ground.
Li Feng thought to himself, although the system says that thermal weapons and electricity are prohibited in this world, it does not prevent me from finding resources such as oil and coal mines to do other things.
Well, for Li Feng, the so-called other things are limited to the most superficial burning, setting fires, etc. There is no way, he himself is not a talent in this field, and there is a lack of talent in this field around him.
But even if it is set on fire, it is more powerful than other things, so it is necessary to collect it.
So I quickly added: "You should pay special attention to a black, viscous and flammable liquid. Once you find it, report it to me immediately. I will be of great use."
"Well, Your Majesty, if this happens, the gold and silver we have brought from Xianyang will not be enough. Now that the new taxes have not been levied, officials below me are already scrimping on food and clothing. They have to pay military salaries, encourage births, and also
It may be unsustainable to prepare for wartime use. You can see if the mining is suspended."
"We cannot delay. We must speed up our pace. Otherwise, when the Central Plains are unified again and people's minds are set, we will become rebels if we fight out. The people in Guanzhong will no longer recognize me as the Emperor of Qin."
"Hey! No!" Meng Rui had no choice but to look bitter.
Li Feng looked into his eyes and patted his shoulder: "Just go ahead and do it. I will raise the money."
