Chapter 241, Wang Ge's grand strategy(2/2)
Xu Wei smiled and said: "What the old man said makes sense. If you want to have a good harvest, you must invest in the land. The land will not lie. How much sweat has our Tengjia Army shed on the land of Bingzhou in the past few years?
How much money has been spent to build thousands of miles of canals, and the current harvest is the result of our hard work!"
"This year, most of the land in the farming areas of Taiyuan, Shangdang, and Shangjun has just been opened up and has not yet been improved. When these lands become fertile, it will not be a problem for our Bingzhou grain output to exceed 200 million shi!"
However, Jizhou has been resting on its laurels. The noble families in Jizhou are reluctant to invest in land, because they are all rent collectors and their benefits are fixed. A bumper grain harvest will not bring them much profit. A reduction in grain production will make the country rich.
Use a small amount of food to annex the land of the victims.
The officials in Jizhou have read the Six Classics thoroughly and are very good at talking about the classics and Taoism. But when asked to tell them how to farm, they are speechless, and they even talk about what these ordinary people do. They are reluctant to invest in the fields, even if they are gifted with knowledge.
The environment is good, but the food output will still be surpassed by us!
At this time, Old Man Wang said with a smile: "After this year's bumper harvest, our Bingzhou food crisis has been resolved. Should Qu Shuai marry Miss Zhang Ning? This old man has been waiting for this wedding wine for several years!"
What Old Man Wang is telling the truth is that the Tengjia Army's career is getting bigger and bigger and more prosperous. Xu Wei is a perfect leader for them, but the only flaw is that there is no successor, which is very important to them.
It's too unsafe for a career.
The appearance of Zhang Ning can be said to have made Old Man Wang and the others overjoyed. She is the daughter of Commander Zhang Niujiao, and she is a nurse. In the past few years, she has been saving lives and healing the wounded in the Tengjia Army. Whether it is the members of the original Tengjia Army
, and all the members of the Yellow Turban Army recognized her as the best candidate for their wife for Old Man Wang and Zhang Baiqi.
Zhang Ning suddenly turned red and said, "Old man, what are you talking about!"
But Xu Wei took Zhang Ning's hand and smiled: "Okay! We will get married after the autumn harvest this year!"
When Old Man Wang heard this, he smiled excitedly and said: "Okay, okay, this is a happy event for our Tengjia Army. Leave this matter to Old Man. He will definitely hold the most lively wedding!"
At this moment, Zhang Baiqi ran over and said: "Commander Qu, something bad has happened! Dong Zhuo and the Kwantung Allied Forces have reconciled, and now they are uniting with them to encircle and suppress the Yellow Turban Army in the Central Plains!"
Xu Wei was surprised and said: "What's going on? Didn't they fight fiercely? Why did they suddenly reconcile?"
Zhang Baiqi said: "I can't explain this clearly. Qu Shuai should go to the meeting hall. Wang Ge and the others know best!"
So Xu Wei and the others rushed all the way to the meeting hall in Mayi!
At this time, all the senior generals in Mayi have arrived here!
Wang Ge saw Xu Wei coming and said to the sand table: "Commander Qu, starting from May, Dong Zhuo defeated the Kwantung Allied Forces in Suanzao, and Liu Bei defeated Yuan Shu's headquarters in Luyang. It can be said that the main force of the Kwantung Allied Forces has been defeated by Dong Zhuo.
Got it!"
Xu Wei wondered: "If Yuan Shao didn't buy 10,000 sets of armor from us, how could he watch the Kwantung Allied Forces of Jujube being wiped out by Dong Zhuo!"
Wang Ge mocked: "Yuan Shao was worried that his army was no match for Dong Zhuo, so he kept recruiting troops in Hanoi County, hoping to win with numbers, but he did not expect that Cao Cao and the others would be annihilated by Dong Zhuo, and the main force of the Kwantung Allied Forces was annihilated by Dong Zhuo and Liu Bei.
After that, Yuan Wei immediately begged Dong Zhuo for mercy!"
Xu Wei slapped his forehead, which really strengthened Dong Zhuo too much!
But he still asked: "Even if Yuan Shao and the others are defeated, they still don't have tens of thousands of troops. With the strength of the Kwantung Allied Forces, it won't be a problem for them to recruit another 200,000 troops. Will Yuan Wei just admit defeat to Dong Zhuo like this?"
Wang Ge said: "Yuan Wei can't do anything if he doesn't admit defeat. It doesn't matter if Yuan Shao fails, but we have continued to provide equipment and veterans with combat experience to the Yellow Turban Army in the Central Plains in the past few months, so that the strength of the Yellow Turban Army in the Central Plains has skyrocketed. Now in Qingzhou,
Xuzhou, Yanzhou and Yuzhou are full of uprising Yellow Turban soldiers. It is said that they have millions of tribesmen. Hundreds of Wubao of the noble families in the Central Plains were captured by the Yellow Turban Army. The noble families in the Central Plains suffered heavy losses and could only appeal to Dong Zhuo.
Beg for mercy and let Dong Zhuo save them!"
Okay! This is his fault again. Sometimes Xu Wei really envies other time travellers. They are doing all kinds of things in a world, but the main plot can still be maintained.
And he just occupied Bingzhou, and he was immediately surrounded by an army of 300,000 soldiers that had never appeared in history. As soon as he supported Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo overturned Yuan Shao's Kwantung Allied Forces. Just as he supported the Yellow Turban Army, Dong Zhuo immediately Joining forces with Yuan Wei, the 19 princes in his imagination to fight for thunder will actually become a reality!
Xu Wei said helplessly: "Dong Zhuo is still a warrior. Yuan Wei has done this to him. If I were to let the Guandong clan headed by Yuan Kai go, I would definitely not let go of the Guandong clan headed by Yuan Wei, but would confiscate their homes and exterminate their clans one by one!"
Zhang Baiqi said helplessly: "This is impossible, Commander Qu. Dong Zhuo also wants the Kwantung Allied Forces to help him provide money and food. It is said that he now has an army of 180,000, and the current Luoyang court cannot afford it!"
Yes, it is very expensive to raise a large army, and the officials of the Han Dynasty do not have the ability to make money like Xu Wei. For example, the 100,000 Jizhou counties of Huangfu Song of Jizhou are now about to be converted into field soldiers.
There is no way, there is no shortage of food in Jizhou, but in addition to food, there are other expenses such as monthly salary. Ten thousand soldiers, even second-class county soldiers, will consume hundreds of millions of dollars a year. An army of 100,000 is one billion dollars. Jizhou is really Unable to afford so much money, Huangfu Song could only give his army 100 acres of land in Jizhou, which looked a bit like the soldiers of later generations. Only then could he maintain an army of nearly 200,000 people.
Zhang Baiqi continued: "Now that Dong Zhuo and Yuan Wei have united to deal with the Yellow Turban Army in the Central Plains, I am afraid that if the Yellow Turban Army is wiped out, it will be our turn to encircle and suppress us. By then, our Tengjia Army will have to face an elite force of 500,000 men. Got it!"
Wang Ge said at this time: "So we can't just be beaten passively! We must take the initiative!"
Xu Wei asked: "Who do you want to hit?"
Wang Ge said: "Send a small number of elites to attack Hanoi County. Hanoi County is Luoyang's confidant. Dong Zhuo and others will definitely not dare to give up. In this way, we can hold a large number of Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao's main forces to coordinate the Yellow Turban Army in the Central Plains, so that they can Hold on for a longer time, and at the same time our main force attacks Youzhou directly from the grassland, with an army of 200,000 pouring down, and there is no way Liu Yu in Youzhou can stop it!"
Xu Wei thought for a while and asked: "What if Huangfu Song of Jizhou supports Liu Yu?"
Wang Ge smiled and said: "If Huangfu Song dares to support him, then he is asking for death. We have 100,000 cavalry. The flat terrain of Youzhou is suitable for cavalry operations. If he really brings the main force of Jizhou, we will Use cavalry to crush Huangfu Song's army."
"At that time, we can take advantage of the situation to capture Jizhou. The three northern states are all in the hands of our Tengjia Army. The remaining army of the Han Dynasty is not our opponent at all. As long as we train north of the Yellow River for a few years, we can lead an army of one million to attack by then. In the Central Plains, Dong Zhuo and the others cannot be our opponents at all, and the Han Dynasty will be conquered by our Tengjia Army!"
Chapter completed!
