Chapter 722 Recovering Mountains and Rivers
Liu Zhixing did not answer immediately after hearing this, but lowered his head and pondered.
The matter of running official schools, Imperial College, and grandson is not in the present, but in the future. In the future, when Wu Nian became king, the imperial examination can be held.
By enrolling a scholar, you can not only gain excellent young officials, but also stabilize the hearts of scholars.
And it really matters now.
It is the resettlement of the Maritime Warrior Department, the Salt and Iron Specialty, and the six garrison soldiers of 10,000 households.
The Maritime Trade Bureau, a specialty in Salt and Iron, is currently continuously consuming wealth from the people to assist the Han General's Mansion. Compared with national debts, this is income, not loans. Although the specialty in Salt and Iron has the taste of competing for profit with the people, the people have no complaints.
This is due to Wu Nian's great prestige.
As for the six garrison soldiers of 10,000 households.
Once the Mongols attacked, they would pick up their weapons and fight back.
The most amazing thing is that the Queen Mother of Goguryeo sent someone to act like a fence-bearing man. In this way, they did not have to consider the problem that Goguryeo would suddenly lead troops to fight.
He only fought with the Mongolian Yuan people and only tried to seize Guangyang and Huanglong mansions.
That's fine.
Liu Zhixing thought about it for a long time and considered all aspects before he raised his head and bowed to Wu Nian and said, "After the autumn grain, you can send troops to attack Guangyang Prefecture."
"Yes." Wu Young nodded lightly, showing joy.
This is the affirmation of the chief executive.
Fight. No problem.
As for the autumn grain afterwards, first, the grain is collected, and the food is in your hands, so you are not panic. Second, the war between autumn and winter is cool.
"Although it's an offensive, the defense cannot be neglected. Although there are six garrisons, ten thousand households, as a supplement. However, the Mongolian Yuan people are too strong, and I must leave some lieutenants to guard the three palaces. Let's discuss it."
After saying that, Wu Nian got up and came to the door, and said to a personal soldier on the right side of the door: "Go and get the map."
"Yes." The personal soldiers responded and turned around.
After a while, two personal soldiers brought a desk and placed it in the center of the living room. On the desk was a landscape topographic map of Liaodong, and all key places were marked.
"Nanhai Prefecture borders Huanglong Prefecture, and most places are flat. It is the top priority of defense. If we attack Guangyang Prefecture, Chunyuan will be able to attack Nanhai Prefecture, so as to surround Wei and save Zhao."
"Xiong Wuwo in Shanhaiguan has 30,000 elite troops in his hands, and may also send troops to the South China Sea Mansion to echo Chunyuan."
"On the contrary, Yingqing Mansion is located in the mountains, and it is not easy to march, set up formations, and attack. Now there are two elite soldiers guarding the houses of ten thousand households, and there is no pressure to guard the house."
"Now Zhang Jin is in the south of Nanhai Prefecture to defend Shanhaiguan. Feng Chong and Liu Wu are in the north of Nanhai Prefecture to defend Chunyuan. With two guards to defend, there are five soldiers of 10,000 households. In addition, Miss Wei from Shanghai Tiancheng is a nail placed in Huanglong Mansion, threatening the safety of Huanglong Mansion at all times."
"There is no need to worry about this garrison."
"But in order to prevent accidents, we have to leave a captain in Yingqing Mansion as support."
"I plan to mobilize the iron cow from the north to guard Jiang County."
"I will attack Guangyang Mansion with six lieutenants including Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng, Long Qi, Zhao Yanting, Guan Jinhan, Huang Hu. What do you think?"
Wu Nian and Liu Zhixing came to the desk and bent down to watch the map. Wu Nian thought about the attack for a long time or two. This time he said his mind's calculations and said it very smoothly.
Liu Zhixing also had plans for this, and nodded in agreement with Wu Nian while looking at the map.
In fact, when fighting, there is no such thing as simple attack and defense.
The troops of the six garrisons of 10,000 households were scattered in three prefectures. Each mansion obtained two 10,000 households. This was a complete garrison force, responsible for defending the city, not responsible for leaving the city to fight.
Their equipment, treatment, and morale can only be used to defend the city, and they are definitely not opponents of the Mongolian Yuan warriors in the field.
However, Zhang Jin, Liu Wu and Feng Chong, three lieutenants guarding Nanhai Prefecture, and the Wei Ru who guarded Haitian City, had two enemies of ten thousand people.
Three infantry and ten thousand households and one cavalry are definitely not just as simple as garrison.
If Chunyuan led six thousand-houses of Mengyuan soldiers from Huanglong Mansion to Huanglong Mansion south, they would be responsible for defense. If Chunyuan led the Mengyuan soldiers to east and rescue Guangyang Mansion.
They could gather together and send troops to Huanglong Mansion as support.
Tieniu guards Jiang County to prevent accidents.
Wu Nian's layout can be attacked, retreated, and defended, and supported each other. It can be said that it is a deep understanding of military tactics and a high-level layout.
But it is not easy.
There are three Mongol Yuan Wanhu guarding in Guangyang Prefecture, namely Jin Ruiyun, Wanyan Xian and Hou Wancheng.
The forces of both sides are two to one.
The Mongolian Yuan side also has the advantage of defending the city. If you really fight, you will have only one outcome and both sides will suffer.
It's not easy to attack.
Like this attack against Wang Zhongbi, it is hard to come by.
But no matter how difficult it is, you have to fight. Isn’t it all like this?
Liu Zhixing stretched out his right hand, his index finger and middle finger were pointed like a sword, and pointed it at a sharp point on a mountain on the map, saying, "The most important thing is here. Xingshi Mountain."
Wu Nian looked closely and nodded with a smile: "Yes. Xingshishan."
"Now, there seem to be five thousand households guarding the mountain. But the main general is a Han man named Liu Chong. The Liu family has served in the Mongolian Yuan for three generations and is a real lackey."
"Liu Chong was originally a ten thousand households of Han people, but later, ten thousand households of Han people were disbanded, so he was idle. Recently, he was opened by Chunyuan to guard Xingshi Mountain. He hoarded food and grass in the mountains and could eat and use it for one or two years."
"This person is extremely strong in both martial arts and military leadership. He is known as the [the number one Han general of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty]."
Speaking of this, Wu Nian's tone became solemn again. He had never fought with Liu Chong, and he didn't know if the other party was really capable or bragging.
But under the reputation, there must be real materials. This person named Liu Chong must be a difficult opponent.
Xingshi Mountain has a dangerous terrain, easy to defend but difficult to attack.
There is a source of water.
Liu Chong hoarded food and grass, which was enough to eat and use it for more than a year.
To capture this mountain, it will take a lot of effort. However, this mountain must also be captured.
From Huanglong Mansion to Guangyang Mansion, there is only a wide road, which is the road of Xingshi.
The official road named after this Xingshi Mountain. As long as you capture Xingshi Mountain, you can defend Xingshi Road and block the direct connection between the Mengyuan warriors between Huanglong Mansion and Guangyang Mansion.
At that time, if Chunyuan wants to rescue Guangyang Prefecture, he must detour to the Mongolian Yuan territory, and the road will be delayed for a long time.
This Xingshi Mountain is not the place to decide the outcome, but it is the basis for attacking Guangyang Prefecture.
"How can we break through such a building? We have strong generals guarding and five thousand households of fierce Yuan warriors. And the terrain is dangerous, with sufficient food and grass, and the road with water sources?"
