Su Yan waved his hand, let the two of them get up and think for a while, and asked again: "How is the situation in the camp now?"
"It's not very good, but the military is still intact and the organization is not much worse. However, the wage arrears are so bad that many soldiers are already resentful," Zhao Dachui thought for a while, and then said something.
"That's pretty good. OK. You guys go back first. Start to resume normal training from tomorrow. Those who are slacking off will be dealt with by military law,"
"As for the order," the two of them responded with their fists, and then turned and left.
After the two left, Su Yang, who was standing beside him, asked Su Yan with some confusion: "Sir, I have something unknown,"
“Say it,”
"These two obviously took the lead in fighting against the adults, and they obviously wanted to give you a warning, but why did the adults let them go?"
Su Yan smiled, without answering directly, and asked back: "What should you do as you say?"
"If you don't say that you should be executed according to the law, you should be punished and punished," Su Yang thought for a while and expressed his thoughts.
"It's easy to kill them, but who will help me control these soldiers? I'm a newcomer. Although I've just suppressed them, in the future, will I let them order them one by one?"
"My sir means," Su Yang asked tentatively as if he had thought of something.
"These soldiers are their old subordinates, so from the perspective of prestige alone, the soldiers will obey them more, so I need them to control these soldiers. If I kill them, I am afraid these soldiers will become a mess. Besides, after a long battle, some arrogance is inevitable. Softing and polishing is OK. Although they are rebellious, judging from the situation just now, they are indeed not ordinary people. They have some skills and dare to admit their mistakes. It doesn’t matter if they are spared once. It will also make them grateful and do their best to do things."
"So that's how it is. He is humble and stupid and cannot understand the thoughts of the adults," Su Yang said with shame. He didn't expect that Su Yan had such a brain besides his outstanding strength, which made him admire Su Yan even more for a while.
"The so-called giving a stick and a candied date is this. Just learn a little in the future," Su Yan patted Su Yang on the shoulder and said in a harmonious voice.
Guo Wenxi, the governor of Jiangling County, was quite good to Su Yan and provided him with a separate house as his residence.
The mansion is not small in size, not far from the military camp. It is said that it was the house of a wealthy businessman before. Su Yan also accepted these things happily. If he did not accept them, it would arouse Guo Wenxi's suspicion.
Although Guo Wenxi seems to be loyal and even a little stupid, Su Yan doesn't think so. Instead, he thinks he is smart, but he just covers up very well.
After returning to the house, he summoned the maids of servants and maids, and then gave them to Su Yang and others.
Half an hour later, Su Yang walked into Su Yan's study with a cloth bag, placed it on the table, and said, "Sir, this is the classics you want about Jiangling and the recent approximate military information filing. ”
"Well, you go down first," Su Yan picked it up and looked around, then waved his hand to let Su Yang go out.
Su Yan had just arrived here and knew nothing about Jiangling City, so he asked Su Yang to find these things. If you want to gain a foothold here, you must have some understanding of them. Then, it is a war period, and these things appear More important.
Jiangling has been built for seven or eight hundred years. It has been repaired three times, but the area is not large. The current unit is less than forty square kilometers.
In theory, forty square kilometers is not very small. In Su Yan's previous life, some ancient cities had an area of sixty or seventy square kilometers, but in this world, the area was vast and most of people were born with divine power, so the city was far larger than that of Su Yan's previous life, like the imperial city Jian'an, was 5,000 square kilometers in area, which was 70 or 80 times that of the ancient Chang'an City.
Jiangling City is located in the border area, with fewer defenders and less than a thousand people, but the organization is still complete, not as lying about the organization as Su Yan imagined.
The situation in Jiangling is not optimistic now. Kongsang's army has broken through fifteen cities in a row and occupied most of the territory of Liaozhou City. There is a city of the other party less than 200 miles east of Jiangling alone, and the scale is larger than Jiangling. , Their army has also set up camp outside Jiangling City and launched attacks many times.
Although the Kongsang army outside Jiangling attacked many times but did not capture the city, it also caused considerable losses to the city.
However, the records about military information are all well-known and rough results, and there is no specific situation, which disappoints Su Yan quite.
"Su Yang, come here,"
Su Yan shouted, and then Su Yang hurried over.
"Go and bring Zhao Dahui,"
"yes,"
Although Su Yang was strange, he didn't ask much, and turned around and left in a hurry.
About a quarter of an hour, Su Yang brought Zhao Dachui back.
"Greetings to the Lord," Zhao Dahui bowed, and then asked, "I don't know what the Lord calls the Lord to come to him."
"Don't worry," Su Yan smiled, telling him not to be nervous: "How long has Kongsan's army been camping outside the city?"
“It’s been about seven or eight days,”
"I have attacked several times during this period."
“It’s been twice,”
"What does it mean? How many times did it mean?" Su Yan asked in surprise.
"Because they launched two large-scale attacks, General Cui led his army to fight against each other, but he retreated. Later, General Cui couldn't hold on, and Kongsang didn't seem to be in a hurry, and every time he attacked, he attacked. It took a short time, and some bodies were left behind and they retreated."
"How could this happen? What's the point?" Su Yan became even more strange.
"I don't know this subordinate," Zhao Dachui said very simply.
"How long has it been since the last attack,"
"It seems like it's been three or four days,"
"This shouldn't be. When I came, I saw a lot of wars in the city. Why are they so quiet?" Su Yan frowned, puzzled. It was said that the enemy was in full swing and should be pursuing the victory. It should not be so Slack.
"Have General Cui taken the initiative to attack?" Su Yan continued.
"No,"
Su Yan couldn't figure it out, frowned, and walked up in the room with his hands on his back. He thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure out the joints inside. Then he suddenly turned his head and said to Zhao Dachui: "Go and find me two detailed copies. Here comes the map, one wants the surrounding Jiangling and the other wants the overall situation of Liaozhou. If they don’t give it, you just say that this is the right given to you by the county magistrate.”
"As for the order," Zhao Dachui responded and walked out directly. When he came back, he took a detailed map of Jiangling and a map of the entire Liaozhou City.
