Everyone here is either a brother or a gentleman.
Not so much twists and turns.
Liu Zhixing showed a serious look, and said to Wu Nian: "Of course it is a good thing for the general to make progress. But is this step too big? I think it is better to calculate it as one captain leading two thousand households."
"First expand the troops to fourteen infantry units of one thousand households, one unit of one thousand households, and six heavy armored cavalry of one hundred households."
"Liu Changshi is right." Li Yong glanced at Liu Zhixing first, nodded, and said sincerely to Wu Nian: "General. As long as we guard the mountain and develop slowly, we will be able to fight out sooner or later. Really to capture the county seat."
"This step is too big at once. I'm afraid the foundation is unstable. You know, this mountain and this flat land require strong men to farm. Too many strong men are mobilized at once, and people will have a hard time. I'm afraid there will be complaints."
Not just civil servants.
Even the generals tried to persuade him.
"General. Liu Changshi and Li Sima are right. Don't act too hastily."
"General, although I don't understand much, I still understand farming. Without the prime-age labor force among the people, I'm afraid there will be trouble."
"General. I don't feel good about it either."
Wu Nian raised his hands and pressed them down. Wen and Wu who opened their mouths closed their mouths one after another.
No matter how they object, the only person who can make the decision in this Beishan Fort is Wu Nian. As long as Wu Nian confirms this matter, they will do it.
Do it with sincerity.
Wu young man shook his head lightly. Don't he understand the horror of such brutality? Don’t you know about the lack of private labor force?
But time waits for no one.
Wu Nian sighed, stood up, and said sincerely to everyone: "Brothers, I know everything. But one year, two years, three years. If we develop steadily, it is indeed the best policy."
"But we are not as good as the Meng Yuan people. They are too huge. They were originally an empire with tens of millions of people. Now they have occupied Liaodong."
"The longer time passes, the stronger they will be. It is better to develop slowly than to give it a try."
"This year we recruit and train elite soldiers. We will start farming next spring. Next autumn, or the year after, our army will have the combat capability to go out of the mountains. As long as there is a chance, we can capture the county seat and grow stronger."
"Wait. We can't wait any longer. Time waits for us not."
What Wu Nian said was extremely sincere, and the truth was the same.
Survive, progress, or die.
this is a problem.
For people who are seriously ill, drastic medicine is needed.
It’s better to start with Tai Square and slowly adjust it.
There is no right or wrong, only results.
The winner takes all, and the winner is right.
Now that Wu Nian had decided on the route, everyone didn't say anything. They all bowed their hands and obeyed.
"Okay." A smile appeared on Wu Nian's face, he nodded slightly and said, "The next work will start from this."
"Chang Shi and Sima are responsible for coordinating everything. Including selecting and recruiting cavalry generals."
"The captains are responsible for training the troops."
"Expanding so many people at once will be very troublesome to manage. Your burden will be heavy. However, when the troops are built, there will be 26,000 strong troops."
"Just thinking about it is inspiring."
"I hope you will persist and encourage me."
"Besides." When Wu Nian said this, he cast his eyes on Chen Jiagui with a look of admiration on his face. Said: "Chen Canjun. This time I was able to travel safely in the mountains and come back smoothly under the eyes of so many households. Thanks to your spies."
"You have done a very good job. The lives of me, Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng, and tens of thousands of people are all saved because of you. Thank you."
Wu Nian clasped his hands seriously and cupped his hands to Chen Jiagui with a sincere expression.
This battle.
It’s really dangerous and dangerous.
It is possible to be dangerous and dangerous precisely because the eyes and ears are sensitive and there are many spies.
"General, you are serious. This is what I should do." Chen Jiagui stood up helplessly, clasped his hands in fists, and bowed to Wu Nian.
"Yeah." Wu Nian hummed, then smiled, looked around at everyone, and said, "Okay. You all go to work. I'm tired. I want to go home, take a good bath, and hold my wife firmly. Get some sleep."
"Farewell."
After saying that, Wu Nian clasped his fists and strode out of the main room.
All the civil and military officials stood up and saluted Wu Nian's back with their hands raised.
After Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng's words, everyone knew how difficult this battle was.
What a thrill.
If Wu Nian hadn't resolutely led two thousand troops to ambush outside and roam the northern mountains, Beishan Fort would have been in danger.
certainly.
The harvest is also huge.
There is an invisible gain, which Wu Nian himself said.
【Wide】.
As majestic as a mountain.
This is Wu Nian's confidence.
He can use his reputation to reach out into the mountain village.
.......
It was only a few steps away. Wu Nian walked towards the Wu Mansion without riding a horse, surrounded by his soldiers.
The city was very crowded. When the people saw Wu Nian, they immediately moved aside and bent down.
Wu Nian nodded to the people from time to time.
After a while, Wu Nian came to the door of Wu Mansion.
Sister Wu, nephew Zhang Zhen, daughter Li Ya.
Liu Xiang, Chen Shi, Wang Ruyan, Xiao Hong, etc. were all standing at the door, brows beaming with joy and looking forward to it. Mrs. Chen held a big fat boy in her plump arms.
"Dad!!!" Li Ya shouted, running very fast with her short legs, and hugged Wu Nian's waist, but soon let go.
This piece of iron is uncomfortable to hold.
"I'm back." Wu Nian stretched out his right hand and touched the back of his daughter's head, then looked up at his family. Even his son didn't want to look at it, and said with a smile: "I'm back. But I'm tired. Let's talk about it tomorrow."
With that said, Wu Nian cast his eyes on Liu Xiang and said, "Xiang'er. Prepare hot water and clothes for me. Give me a bath."
"Okay brother." Liu Xiang looked at her long-lost brother, stretched out her hand to wipe her tears, nodded with a smile, turned around and walked in.
When everyone heard what Wu Nian said and looked at Wu Nian's thin cheeks, they all turned around and entered the house without saying anything.
If you have a full stomach, you can talk about it later.
Not bad today.
And they talk a lot.
Especially the wives and concubines.
It's not easy being a general's woman, especially when the general is away on an expedition.
After Wu Nian entered the courtyard, he spread his arms, and the soldiers stepped forward to remove Wu Nian's armor. After taking off the dozens of kilograms of armor, my whole body felt relaxed.
Wu Nian exhaled and strode to the bedroom.
Shortly after. Liu Xiang came in with a group of maids. After the hot water filled the tub, Liu Xiang tested the water temperature herself. Then he drove away all the maids, leaving only himself to serve Wu Nian.
Wu Nian took off his clothes, raised his legs and entered the tub. Liu Xiang picked up the cloth and rubbed Wu Nian's back.
Although there are thousands of words.
But everything is left unsaid.
Wu Nian returned to his loyal Beishan Fort and formulated a policy. When he returned home, he asked his wife to give him a bath and lived a good life as a young couple.
And the name of Liaodong Tiger.
But with this war, it swept the world.
And it also completely changed the situation in Liaodong.
