There was silence for a moment in the main hall.

Luo Chuan saw several important ministers thinking about their own affairs and was not in a hurry. He just sat on his chair and waited, looking at the layout and furnishings in the hall and thinking about other things.

In fact, he had never taken a closer look at the prefect's palace like this time after returning from Xingcheng. This once rich and huge palace that amazed him was the same as the summer palace in Xingcheng.

After comparison, it seems too small and plain.

Not spacious enough, nor luxurious enough.

But even in Yongchang County, the Summer Palace is not the best palace. It is said that the Summer Palace is even better in terms of area and architectural magnificence.

This is just Yongchang County, which is also one of the three poor counties. How about the prefect’s palace in Jincheng in Guang County? How about the palace in the inner city of Huai City in Hanoi County? Those counties in Jiangzhou that are famous for their wealth and prosperity

, what about their governor’s palace? I even went to the palace in Zhongjing City when I was a child, but I didn’t have the chance to move around much at all, especially now.

What about the palace, which doesn’t even have a deep impression?!

Compared with the accumulation of wealth in the private treasury of the prefect of Li County, which has shocked Luochuan, what will the private collection in the summer palace of Yicheng look like? What do Guangjun and Anyang County look like today? What about Jiangzhou? Beijing

Where is the state?!

Luo Chuan looked away from the surroundings of the hall.

He was a little confused and worried. He didn't know that this time, when he got the attitude of Zhong Shuye, the head of Tingfeng Pavilion, from Feng Er and the Military Affairs Office, he resolutely agreed to send troops to Sichuan City.

Is it really just a matter of testing the reality of Guang County’s strategic layout, or does it also contain some quietly changing ambitions?

After his original strategic goal of sweeping over half of Southwestern Hanzhou as quickly as possible with his "glimps of hope" almost aborted, his desire to conquer cities and territories more and more was due to a sense of urgency brought about by his deeper personal experience of troubled times, or was it because

The yearning and pursuit of greater power and wealth...?

Or maybe both?

"Let's talk about it," Luo Chuan got rid of the random thoughts in his mind, looked at Zhao Wuji and said, "Let me first tell you what the Military Affairs Office thinks."

Zhao Wuji nodded, and then continued to point on the map with the wooden stick. First, he drew a circle in the area north of the Han River facing Anling, "Qing County in the northwest, where it intersects with Anling, is the Han River in the upper reaches. The river here

It is wide and the water flow is fast. Even with the warships and troop transports of the Guangjun Navy, it is extremely difficult to transport the army. What's more, the Guangjun Navy must be downstream of the Han River and the Ya River, so Qingjun wants to

It is basically impossible to rush in large-scale reinforcements after I send troops to Sichuan City and directly threaten the defense of Anling. All I need to do is let Chen Jingzhi station the front army on the south bank of the Han River, and arrange enough scouts to patrol along the coast to respond in time.

It is safe enough for any situation.”

"Yongchang County can use the troops from Yicheng and Xingcheng and even the Shanshan Army to go north to threaten our Sancang territory. But let's not worry about whether Meng Jiaoyang has the determination to really break up with me and start a war with Li County.

Tongcang City is still Zhengcang City. As long as we can't hold on, there won't be any danger in a short time. If Gan Yuan Army and Shang Yuan Army are mobilized to rush north to reinforce each other with ten thousand soldiers, the land of Sancang will be as stable as Mount Tai." Zhao Wuji's wooden stick is in Yongchang County

After making some points in the direction of Xingcheng and Yicheng, he drew a line to the north and pointed at the locations of Hannan City, Shuzhou City and Xiucheng in Guangjun. "So in the final analysis, if we want to capture Sichuan City this time, we still have to worry about it."

It’s Guangjun.”

"At this time, there are more than 20,000 elite troops from Guangjun and some refugees in Sichuan City. Hannan City, Shuzhou City and Xiucheng are left behind.

While necessary to defend the city, the number of troops that can be squeezed out for reinforcements is only 20,000 at most." Zhao Wuji pointed to Chunyang City in Anling and Liangcang City in Sancang. "Considering the factors of undeclared war and surprise attacks,

As long as we can assemble an army of 30,000 from He Ruoxiong's tribe in Chunyang City and Li Mu's tribe in Liangcang City, we can capture Sichuan City in lightning speed, and use Sichuan City as the cornerstone to lay out a defense line. Relying on the ability of thousands of cavalry to quickly maneuver, we can move northward and to the north.

To invade deep into the hinterland of Guang County from the east, it is simply impossible to retake Sichuan City with the current strength of the troops in the western part of Guang County!"

He looked at the crowd and said slowly, "Just give us some time to set up defenses and mobilize, renovate the official road from Sichuan City to Roucheng and Chunyang City in the direction of Anling, and then cross Sichuan City to the south of Sancang."

After the construction of Ganshui's pontoon bridge is completed, Sichuan City can be completely revitalized. Relying on the two major areas of Anling and Sancang as the rear, it will become the spearhead of our Lijun facing Guangjun, pointing directly at Guangjun's indispensable heart.

place!"

The hall was silent again.

After a long time, Treasurer Chief Xie Wushang glanced at Dou Qiushi, who was still silent, and asked again, "I remember saying at the previous court meeting that the general who is now in charge of Sichuan City is a powerful Shangsan Realm man from Guang County.

A strong man or a sword cultivator, how should we deal with this person? Should we just let Master Qixing who is in charge of Anling go?"

Zhao Wuji did not make a sound this time, but looked at Luochuan.

Luo Chuan said, "Zhong Shuye, the head of Tingfeng Pavilion, has moved all the core disciples of the sect to Danyang Peak in Ganshan Mountain." He looked at Xie Wushang's shocked expression and said softly, "This battle in Sichuan City

, Master Zhong will personally take action, and nothing will go wrong!"

Xie Wushang opened his mouth. Even with his calmness, he was quite shocked by this sentence. In his understanding, it was because of the relationship between Cangyan Sword Sect and Lijun that Cangyan Sect Master Qiming Zhenren was

It is absolutely impossible to take action personally for Sichuan City, let alone the head of Tingfeng Pavilion who has just become the commander of the county for less than a month?!

His heart was overturned for a moment, and he looked at Luochuan with a different kind of caution involuntarily.

Luo Chuan didn't care about his expression, but he still said in a tone as if he was telling gossips and jokes in Licheng Well, "Qingjun, Guangjun and Yongchang County have formed an alliance. Guangjun is the key in the middle. Now Guangjun is trapped in Hanoi."

The quagmire of war in the three cities in the southern part of the county is difficult to turn around for a while, which gives us an opportunity. If we miss it, we may not be able to reappear the opportunity today. Therefore, the battle in Sichuan City is imperative."

He looked at Dou Qiushi and Xie Wushang and said, "Two adults, the battle in Sichuan City is about the first move in the battle between Li and Guang. There is no room for failure. The matter of food and grass logistics requires two adults?????????

???????People take too much trouble.”

Dou Qiushi asked, "There is a lot of interference in the mobilization of grain and grass, so it may be difficult to keep it secret."

"This is one of the reasons why I didn't find two people, especially Mr. Xie, until now and informed them of the detailed plan." Luo Chuan did not look at Dou Qiushi, but stared at Xie Wushang and replied, "The Military Affairs Office and Mr.

The deployment of the various armies in the north has been secretly carried out in advance, and the mobilization of food and grass will come later. Mr. Xie can plan for three days, and the mobilization will officially begin after three days."

Xie Wushang nodded solemnly, and then asked, "I don't know how long do you plan to fight this battle, Lord Taishou?" He glanced at Luo Chuan's expression and quickly added, "The humble position requires the deployment of personnel according to the various departments of the Military Affairs Department.

and the duration of the war, to prepare grain and grass, and allocate it nearby according to the reserves of local granaries. Now is the autumn harvest season. The treasurer's office in Anling and Sancang can even borrow grain from the private sector first, and then add it later from the Lijun Granary.

Make up for what you have, so you can achieve the fastest speed and the smallest movement."

Luo Chuan thought for a while and then nodded, looked at Zhao Wuji and said, "Uncle Zhao and Mr. Xie can discuss in detail how to implement it. If this can speed up the food and grass operations for a day or two, it will be good."

Zhao Wuji and Xie Wushang looked at each other and stood up to salute at the same time.

Luochuan pressed his hand to signal the two of them to sit down, then turned to look at Dou Qiushi and asked, "Uncle Dou, how about what I told you last time?"

Dou Qiushi said, "According to the wishes of the Grand Administrator, everything is done in accordance with the etiquette of Dading. However, the method of passing letters by horse is still too old. It will take ten days at the earliest for the letter to reach Zhongjing City.
