The day after Wu Nian's formation defeated Jinhuan Mountain and Puguli, Wanyanxian withdrew his troops.

Jiang County.

"Ouch!"

As the rooster crows and dawn breaks, the sky gradually gets brighter. After yesterday's battle and martial law, today the Fuhan General's Mansion has lifted part of the martial law.

Grain and oil stores, drug stores, cloth shops and other shops that sell daily necessities are open, but other economic activities are not open.

People are not allowed to enter or exit the city at will.

Jiang County was originally a commercial city that brought together businesses from the north, south, and east. The partial martial law greatly damaged the prosperity of Jiang County, but in order to avoid unrest, there was no way around it.

The new General Fu Han Mansion in the city was still being expanded. Wu Nian took the county government office as a temporary General Fu Han Mansion, where he commanded Jiang County, the land of Jiubao.

Wu Nian got up, washed up, and had breakfast. Then he summoned the civil and military officials currently in Jiang County and held a military meeting in the main hall.

The atmosphere at the beginning was relatively relaxed.

Everyone, both civil and military, was still immersed in the joy of killing thousands of households in Jinhuan Mountain, forcing Puguli back, finishing their appearance, and occupying Jiang County.

I can't hide my happiness.

Wu Nian glanced at the crowd and knew that this would not work. Being immersed in glory would lead to destruction. He stopped his smile and said seriously to everyone: "Everyone, say something to destroy your prestige."

"Now our soldiers and horses have suffered heavy losses, and Ding County and Yuan County are still in the hands of the Mongolian people. Ten thousand households of the Mongolian people have died, and there are still hundreds of thousands more."

"And if we fail once, the landslide and the earth will collapse. There will be no second time."

Wu Nian's words were like a basin of cold water being poured down. Everyone, mainly the military generals, felt cold and awe-inspiring.

"That's what the general said." Long Qie nodded and became serious.

The same goes for the other generals.

Wu Nian nodded with satisfaction. This is the attitude towards the current situation. Not to mention when powerful enemies are looking around and tigers and wolves are everywhere.

Even if there is a day when everything is peaceful and peaceful, you still have to be wary of changes.

There is a saying in Taoism that goes well.

prosperity and decline.

If the flying dragon is behind the sky, it is possible that the dragon is trapped in the shallows.

Just like Tang Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty was at its peak in the first half of his life, and wars continued in the second half of his life.

Of course, Wu Nian is just a general supporting the Han Dynasty now, and he dare not compare with Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty.

It’s just that he has such an attitude towards life.

As a human being, you cannot drift.

"Last night, after receiving the news about Puguli and Wanyanxian's retreat, I made up my mind to capture Dingxian. Do you have any ideas? Speak freely."

Wu Nian picked up the tea cup on the coffee table, took a sip of tea, raised his head and asked.

This is not the wild camellia from Beishanbao. It is the Yuqian Longjing plundered from the mansions of dignitaries such as Zhang Bu from Jinhuan Mountain.

It’s not like Wu Nian is showing off.

He felt that drinking this Longjing tea was not as flavorful as the wild mountain tea from Beishanbao.

The military generals had obviously thought about this problem, conquering cities and territories. Which military general wouldn't like it? But Feng Chong took the lead.

Feng Chong surpassed the other generals and took the lead in clasping his fists at Wu Nian and saying, "My lord, I think there is one thing that must be resolved before attacking Dingxian."

"Um?!"

Wu Nian was slightly startled. This was an incorrect answer.

But since you have spoken freely, you can't go back on your word.

"Say." Wu Nian said.

All the civil and military officials looked at Feng Chong curiously, guessing that this stabbing man could tell something more important than attacking Dingxian.

Feng Chong has such a bad temper that he has no friends. As for the generals in Beishan Fort, except for Wei Ru, who is a female general, they all have a harmonious relationship.

Thorny Tou is Feng Chong's nickname recognized by everyone.

"My lord, attack Jiang County and fight Zhang Bu. Defend the city for three days and then go out for a fierce battle. Our soldiers have suffered serious losses and our organization is no longer complete."

"This is very detrimental to the attack on Dingxian."

Feng Chong had no stage fright at all, he held his head high and spoke loudly.

"Yes. That makes sense. I plan to use the surrendered troops collected in these battles and the new recruits recruited and trained in the Nine Forts to replenish the various ministries and restore the organization."

Wu Nian nodded, but he had already thought about this issue.

All the civil and military officials nodded, there was nothing wrong with this solution. Before Wu Nian set out, he started recruiting new soldiers, just to supplement the losses in the battle.

"Recruitment. Of course there is no problem with veterans leading new recruits, but the overall combat effectiveness of the army has also declined. According to Zhuge Liang's deployment schedule, now is a critical period for survival."

"I think it should change."

"Let some captains only retain a certain core army, and let the rest of the elite troops be merged with other captains. This can ensure that some of the captains' troops are all elite veterans."

"And to give up the elite captains, we will use the retained core army to lead new recruits."

"In other words, someone has to give up the right to send troops."

"In addition, I think lord, your heavy ax and heavy armor soldiers are very useful. However, they are too bulky to use alone and require the cooperation of other arms. The left captain and right captain are the lord's personal soldiers. The lord should lead by example and give up some heavy axes.

Heavy armor soldiers are given to the captains of each department. Heavy armor and heavy ax soldiers are established for the captains of each department."

"As the size of the army increases, each department and captain should have heavy armor and heavy ax soldiers, cavalry, divine arm archers and other units."

"In addition, my heavy armor and heavy cavalry also need to be equipped with some light cavalry. Moreover, my heavy armor and heavy cavalry suffered heavy losses. Please give me horses and personnel. I want to expand my thousand households to full strength."

"above."

Feng Chong raised his head, looked at the generals present, and spoke aggressively.

"this!!!"

Everyone, including Chief Shi Liu Zhixing, Sima Li Yong, and Chen Jiagui who joined the army, all changed their faces slightly, showing hesitation.

The prickly head is indeed a prickly head.

Of course Feng Chong's words are right, and it can be said to hit the nail on the head. Merge the remaining elites from each department to form a new elite unit that can quickly enter the battle.

The captains who were split up are training new recruits and performing city defense tasks. This is the most efficient way to deal with the current situation.

But every captain is a human being.

Everyone has selfish motives.

The army has grown stronger with tears and tears, and letting the soldiers go is like cutting flesh with a knife.

What's more, Feng Chong went too far and even had the idea of ​​Wu Nian's heavy armor and heavy ax soldiers.

The soldiers of Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng, the captains on the left and right, were all the personal soldiers of the generals assisting the Han Dynasty.

Although the heavy armor and heavy ax soldiers do have shortcomings, the general's personal soldiers cannot be dismantled and distributed to other captains.

The suggestion put forward by Thorn Tou was right, but it suddenly put everyone in a difficult position.

at this time.

A soldier of Wu Nian broke in from the outside with a serious look on his face. Regardless of the big scene, he crossed the crowd and came to Wu Nian's side, lay down next to Wu Nian's ear, and said a few words.

Wu Nian stood up, looked at the soldiers, and said in surprise: "Is there such a thing?"

The soldier nodded, indicating that it was absolutely true.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly changed. Everyone was freed from the embarrassment just now and looked at Wu Nian curiously.
Chapter completed!
