Chapter 1644: How to advance to rank one martial artist (1)
Xu Qi ‘an was sitting in the main seat of the meeting hall with his sword in his hand.
He sat in this position not because everyone respected his reputation or feared his cultivation.
In theory, Xu Qi ‘an’s current official position was the head of the night watchman’s Yamen. His power was comparable to that of the court officials. Even if he had no real power, his official title was higher than yang Gong, the governor of a state.
“Everyone, please speak. I’m listening.”
Xu Qi ‘an looked at the officials on both sides and started.
He was a complete layman when it came to matters such as moving troops, grain, and stabilizing the rear.
In these fields, it was fine to come up with ideas and point out the shortcomings, but it would only be a hindrance if he were to plan and make arrangements.
Yang Gong nodded and took over Xu Qi ‘an’s position, saying, ”
“In this meeting, I have three things to discuss with you, namely money and grain, the source of soldiers, and the defense line.
.com“Among them, money and food are closely related to the source of soldiers. After the fall of Qingzhou, even though we took away most of the military supplies, the shortage of money and food has always been a problem.
“The grain from Zhang sunk not long ago. The Army that was escorting the grain was completely annihilated.”
Zhang province was one of the granaries of Da Feng and had the most grain reserves. Ten days ago, during the peace negotiations, the fleet from Zhang province that was transporting to Da Feng was attacked. Not only did the grain sink into the river, but the entire Army that was escorting it was also wiped out.
This was the Yunzhou rebel Army’s purposeful act of cutting off the grain from other provinces to Yongzhou.
The great Feng’s territory was vast, and whether they traveled by land or water, the journey was extremely long. Encountering an ambush during the escort process was an unavoidable accident.
Of course, the DA Feng Army had also sent their elites into Yunzhou and Qingzhou to intercept.
At times like this, the only thing that mattered was the resources and the number of experts on both sides.
Compared to great Feng, Yunzhou’s biggest advantage was the lack of strategic depth. That’s right, there were small advantages to a small territory. This meant that the escort route was short, the terrain was not complicated, and the probability of mistakes was also reduced.
Li Mubai muttered,
Yongzhou is rich and prosperous, but we have to stabilize the disaster victims and provide for the Army at the same time. It can only last for a month at most. After a month, we will have to plunder the People’s wealth.
Xu Erlang interrupted, ”
“If we recruit soldiers, we can greatly reduce our money and grain expenses.”
They would integrate the freeloaders into the Army to maximize the use of resources.
Li Mubai said in a low voice,
if this is the case, I can last for three months …
He glanced at mo sang, the strength Gu tribe warrior beside Miao Youfang, and changed his words, ”
“Two months is no problem.”
The officials and generals were silent, their brows furrowed.
The problem of money and food had always been the main problem that Da Feng faced. Without money and food, what war could they fight?
I can ask the God of flowers to ripen a batch of food, but it’s just. drop in the bucket … Xu Qi ‘an thought of the flower God’s spiritual power.
However, he immediately felt that this suggestion was not reliable. The amount of grain that mu nanzhi could ripen was limited, and how much grain did the court need? How many mouths do you have to feed? They were not on the same level, but this method could be used in emergencies.
When the time came, the flower God would cry and say, “There was no more, not a single drop!
Thinking of this, Xu Qi ‘an’s lips curled up.
“Dong Dong!”
He rapped the table a few times to attract everyone’s attention and said, ”
His Majesty will set up towns and open Cities in Chuzhou and Yuzhou. It won’t be long before Dafeng will have money and food.
He immediately told everyone about the policy of the huaiqing court meeting.
It would take time for the government’s decrees to reach the various provinces, and it would definitely not be as fast as the secret agents of the mysterious heavenly Palace, who relied on teleportation techniques to deliver information.
Of course, when sun Xuanji’s teleportation formation was completed, the speed of news coming and going in Yongzhou would be greatly increased.
“Excellent!”
Zhang Shen stroked his beard and smiled.
“These two government decrees can solve the great Feng’s immediate needs and worries.”
The addition of towns and cities could fill the National Treasury and relieve the urgent need of the Imperial court’s Treasury. Taking back the abandoned farmland would allow the refugees to have land to cultivate in the beginning of spring.
These days, it was easy to appease the people. Give him a few acres of land and it would be difficult for the rebel army in Yunzhou to recruit refugees as cannon fodder.
Li Mubai praised,
“When your Majesty was studying at the Yun Lu Academy, you had already displayed extraordinary practical abilities. Now that you’ve ascended to the throne, you’re a blessing to the people.”
Everyone started to praise. Compared to Yongxing, the Empress’s Ascension gave them hope.
Xu yinluo was probably the only one who had the courage to support a woman to the throne.
All the officials and generals looked at Xu Qi ‘an with admiration, but when they saw the hilt of the sword above his head, they lowered their heads and did not let themselves laugh.
Guardian Yuan’s Blue eyes swept across the crowd. His lips moved and he was about to speak when sun Xuanji handed him a cup of tea and said expressionlessly, ”
“Ha!”
Grand justice Yuan hurriedly opened his mouth and had a sip so as to swallow back his words.
…….. All the officials and generals broke out in cold sweat and looked at sun Xuanji with gratitude.
If protector Yuan had read their minds, they would have been standing or kneeling in the meeting. In any case, Xu yinluo would not let them go.
Yang Gong coughed and brought the topic back. He said with a serious expression,
“The third problem, defense line!
before that, we need to estimate when the next attack of the Yunzhou Army will be.
The former commander of the capital of Qingzhou, Zhou Quan, pondered for a moment and said, ”
the Yunzhou Army suffered a great defeat. The battle at Chenzhou City hurt their bones and muscles, so they won’t be able to make a comeback so soon. They should be waiting for the legendary white Emperor to return to Jiuzhou.
