The field armies of the Han army were scattered in various prefectures and counties in Liaodong.
Not to defend, but to eat. Although there are five prefectures in Liaodong, there are grain-producing areas and less grain-producing areas. However, the weather has been good these years, and every government can harvest a lot of food every year.
The army eats grain from local counties and governments on the spot, which eliminates the need to transport grain and grass, and avoids the consumption of food by civilians, cattle and horses on the way.
Following the order from the King of Han. Two hundred thousand horse infantry troops set out from all directions and gathered towards Huanglong Mansion. The four prefectures in Youyan's Goguryeo area guarded ten thousand households, and they also led four armies of ten thousand households along the road and arrived in Liaodong in a mighty manner.
On the road to Huanglong Mansion, flags with the character "Han" were flying in the wind and making a hunting sound. The soldiers of the Han army were connected from front to back and could not see the edge. Like a big dragon, it bared its teeth and claws and moved forward, its murderous aura rising straight into the sky.
The King of Han Dynasty's Luanyu was exquisite and luxurious, with a very spacious interior. Surrounded by countless Ouchi guards, he walked in the middle of the team. Wu Min was wearing heavy armor and holding a horse spear. He rode his horse and followed Luan Yu to defend his father.
Hojo Umasa also followed behind on horseback.
Although he was a foreign monk, he did well in the Han Dynasty and had a harmonious relationship with his colleagues. After being treated by famous doctors, my body has become healthier and healthier.
The bloodline of the Hojo family has not been cut off after all.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say." The Hojo family's policy horse moved forward, came to Wu Min's side, let go of the reins, and saluted Luan Yu.
Inside Luan Yu. Wu Nian was wearing a dragon robe and a black gauze winged crown. He was sitting on a soft blanket made of black bear skin, looking down at the scroll. There were pastries, preserved fruits and other food in front of him.
This Luanyu is like a RV.
"Come on." Wu Nian continued to read the scroll.
"Your Majesty, wait until Huanglong orders his troops. Your Majesty, you can let Kyogoku Dosan and Kumamoto Neiji, two generals from Fuso, serve as the vanguard to attack Soha City and Ningoku Castle respectively."
Hojo Umasa put down his hands, his tone was very calm, and his voice was clearly transmitted to Luan Yu.
Wu Min glanced at Hojo Ushimasa in surprise.
Wu Nian narrowed his eyes slightly, then smiled, put down the book, and said to Hojo Umasa: "Are you showing weakness?"
"Yes." Hojo Ushimasa nodded slightly, and then said with a smile: "The Mongolian Yuan is known as a fighting nation, and so far the only ones who can fight fiercely with the Mongolian Yuan are the Han army and the Slavs. In their eyes, the Fuso people are just a group of pirates, not worth mentioning. .”
"Now the Mongolian and Yuan armies are repairing the city walls and accumulating food and grass. A strong attack will only lead to loss of troops and generals. If you show weakness to the enemy and let the Fusang people go out, it may have a miraculous effect."
"As for the two generals Kyogoku Dosan and Kumamoto Neiji, they first came to Liaodong and have not made any meritorious service. If the king can promote them as vanguards, they will definitely fight hard."
Wu Min's eyes sparkled, he nodded slightly, and learned a trick.
"Yes. I know." Wu Nian hummed. Since he had put down the book, he stopped reading. He picked up the water glass and took a sip of water, then lay down and stretched out his hand to pull out a tiger skin cloak and cover himself.
Not long after, his roar could be heard in Luan Yu.
The Ouchi guards protected the king, and after many days of march, they entered the territory of Huanglong Mansion. It's different here. The Liaohe Plain has a very flat terrain.
Fresh water resources are very abundant.
Yellow dragon, yellow dragon. It is not only the front line of Liaodong, but also the core area of Liaodong.
After entering Huanglong Mansion, we walked for more than a day. King Luan Yu of Han arrived at the northern part of Huanglong Mansion, bordering the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties.
Further north is the Songnen Plain, the fertile black land in the northeast.
That is, the land of Mongolia and Yuan Dynasty.
After years of war, Liaodong was underpopulated. Although the land here is fertile, it is very dangerous, so no people have cultivated it, and it is all wasteland. At this moment, this area was occupied by soldiers and horses from fifteen thousand households, and the sound of people and horses neighing could be heard all the time.
According to the plan. Wu Nian will rest here for three days. thus. After Wu Nian's Luan Yu entered the central army, he went straight to the main tent. He saw no one and discussed nothing.
Luan Yu stopped. Wu Min moved a small bench and placed it next to Luan Yu. Wu Nian stepped on the small bench and got off the Luanyu. He looked up and saw Fu Daquan, the prefect of Huanglong, standing at the entrance to greet him.
"Your Majesty." Fu Daquan bowed and saluted.
"Master Fu. You are a little haggard." Wu Nian glanced at him and found that Fu Daquan was much thinner and more haggard than during the Battle of Huanglong.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have had a bad appetite recently and haven't eaten much. So I feel haggard." Fu Daquan replied.
This is of course false. Nowadays, the imperial court's feudal officials are at the level of governor-general. The magistrate of Huanglong is not considered a high official. But this is the advance base for the Northern Expedition, and there are a lot of things going on.
Fu Daquan should be busy.
"Military affairs are important, but your body is your capital. Only when you take good care of your body can you be energetic and serve the country. Mr. Fu, you should cherish yourself." Wu Young shook his head lightly, and then said to Wu Min: "Take that Bring out the fifty-year-old wild ginseng. Let people hunt some pheasants and cook them with ginseng. I want to enjoy them with the rich."
"yes."
Wu Min responded, turned around and went down.
Now that Wu Niangui is the king of Han, there is no wild ginseng for a hundred years. Fifty years old, it's already top quality.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Fu Daquan felt his nose was sore and his emotions were beyond words. He took a deep breath and thanked him deeply.
Wu Nian waved his hand at him, and then entered the big account with Fu Daquan, Hojo Ushimasa, and the accompanying bachelor and other close officials.
This Chinese military tent also has a roof grid, which is spacious and grand, like a small palace. The accompanying civil servants sat down with Wu Nian.
"Mr. Fu. The Northern Expedition of a few people. What is the reaction of the elders of Huanglong people? Do they agree?" Wu Nian asked.
"So that your Majesty will know. I learned that your Majesty is going to the Northern Expedition. Mr. Huang Long, if you have money, will contribute if you have the strength. The granary of your government office is not enough."
"In addition, there are some men who fled from the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty and are familiar with the terrain of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty. They requested to join the Han army as guides. I brought them here and asked your Majesty to use them."
Fu Daquan perked up, smiled, cupped his fists and saluted.
"Okay." Wu Nian looked happy and nodded slightly. The people have not forgotten the pain, and the military and civilians are warlike, which is a good thing.
As for guides, the more the better. Wu Nian asked a civil servant to go down and accept these guides.
Immediately. Wu Nian chatted and drank tea with Fu Daquan, Hojo Ushimasa, Wu Min and other ministers. Waiting for Ouchi's guards to bring up wild ginseng stewed pheasant and various wines and dishes.
Wu Nian enjoyed delicious food with his ministers. After the meal, he sent Fu Daquan back, dismissed his ministers, read for a while, and then went to the back tent to rest.
Three days flew by.
The time came on the morning of the day of departure.
