In the evening, the state government slaughtered a few sheep and cooked a pot of lamb ribs and yams. Coupled with the finely brewed Peony Spring, Wang Xiaolie and several generals parted happily. On the second day, the generals, Jiang Min and others, went to inspect the army and made a lot of noise.
Wang Xiaolie could see that generals such as Wu Jie, Liu Qi and Guan Shigu still treated him with respect. After staying for two days, they understood that Wang Xiaolie's identity was far different from theirs at this time, and Jiang Min, Zhang Jun and other talents were roughly the same. So most of the time, I stayed with Jiang Min and Zhang Jun.
On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, Wang Xiaolie called Jiang Min, Zhang Jun and Liang Xing to discuss the war in his official office.
A detailed map of the nearby area was spread on the table. Wang Xiaolie, Jiang Min and others lay on the map and carefully observed the nearby terrain.
Finally, Wang Xiaolie straightened up. Said: "Now that the surrounding map has been drawn, we have a general understanding of the situation. We should have a rough plan on what Liang Xing should do after arriving at Fangshan. This will prevent us from being in a hurry and making mistakes."
Jiang Min stood up and sat aside and said, "Xuan Fu thinks that if a war breaks out in Taiyuan Prefecture, what will happen to our department?"
Wang Xiaolie said with a smile: "My temper is not that tough. I insist that you follow my ideas. Since you think that as a special soldier, you have to restrict your activities, then don't restrict it. If there is a war in Taiyuan Mansion, you will We want to attack. But how to attack depends on your own ideas."
Jiang Min waved her hands hurriedly: "I don't have any ideas——"
Wang Xiaolie said: "Then we will come up with a plan during the war. In short, I will use the troops of Jinzhou and Longde to fight in the Taiyuan Prefecture, and you can do whatever you want. Your troops should be I casually dropped a seed in this vast mountain. Whether it is a dragon seed or a flea depends on you."
Jiang Min was stunned. Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaolie's attitude changed so much. Last time he was asked to attack Xinzhou and fix the route, but this time he simply let it fly and ignored it completely. If she doesn't care at all, Jiang Min's responsibility will be huge. If there is no result by then, how will we explain it?
After thinking for a long time, Jiang Min said: "Xuan Fu said this, just put me in hot oil. If there is no victory by then, it will be difficult to explain."
Wang Xiaolie shook his head: "You are thinking too much. To be honest, I am generally satisfied with your army when I came to Shizhou this time. After so many years, it is not easy to finally have an army that can satisfy me. . Your troops performed very well in attacking Shaanxi and recovering Fuzhou. However, these two battles were won with absolute superiority and without hard fighting. This army that has experienced hard fighting is not reassuring. "
Jiang Min nodded slowly: "I understand."
Wang Xiaolie said: "Without a hard battle, it can be said that you have trained well and your troops are strong. In the days to come, you will have to lead the northern states and prepare for war. How do you call it good preparation? Personnel They need to practice well, roads need to be repaired, and equipment needs to be ready. During the First World War in Shaanxi, many soldiers surrendered. After selection, many of them should be added to the armies. Your army must be prepared to receive about 10,000 more soldiers. The outstanding soldiers with a long history have completed the expansion of the army. These newly recruited soldiers must be arranged, trained and prepared for war. In addition, Shizhou is in the mountains and the terrain is harsh. You must make good use of the next time to The main roads have been repaired. Our army has engineering troops who specialize in road repairs. We must make good use of them to make the roads smooth."
Jiang Min crossed her hands and said, "I will obey Xuanfu's order!"
Wang Xiaolie said: "In the next few days, you and Zhang Jun will prepare the army for war and prepare for hard battles. I have done everything I can, and the next step is up to you. Now the army There is a system of honors and meritorious officials in China, and Zhang Jun needs to find a way to make these systems take advantage of them."
Zhang Jun stood up quickly and said yes.
Wang Xiaolie's system of honors and meritorious officials is actually relatively rough. In fact, Wang Xiaolie couldn't care so much, he just sorted out a skeleton. The detailed system still needs to be improved by Zhang Jun and others in actual work. This formed a complete system that was extended to the entire army.
Seeing that the two of them understood, Wang Xiaolie said no more. He said: "We still need to discuss how the northern states will fight."
After speaking, he said to Liang Xing: "Lan Xian and other states are different from the armies of Shaanxi states. There are many rebel armies in the mountains. How to make good use of them and not let them down or let the people down is what you have to do. This Liang Xing knows this matter best and is the most suitable candidate."
Liang Xing was originally the leader of the Taihang Zhongyi Army. No one knew better than him how to deal with the relationships with the various rebel armies.
After Jiang Min's army expanded, Liang Xing received secret training at a military academy in the mainland and served as deputy capital commander. However, Li Songchen and Li Shi were relatively illiterate and indeed unable to learn theoretical knowledge, so they have been transferred to the camp system.
Liang Xingdao: "The rebels from the Lan and Xianzhou armies have already been in contact with each other. However, the relationship with them is still loose and needs to be strengthened."
Wang Xiaolie said: "You can handle these things in Fangshan County. I don't think Jiang Min and Zhang Jun will interfere too much. I still believe in you."
Liang Xing looked at Zhang Jun and said, "This - isn't appropriate."
Wang Xiaolie said: "What's inappropriate? They don't know what's ahead. They just need to grasp the general direction. In addition to Lanzhou, the surrounding mountainous state armies must also be controlled. The Baode Army and the Volcano Army can be handed over to Zhe Yanzhi, just occupy Lanzhou, Xianzhou, Kelan Army and Ninghua Army."
Liang Xing said yes.
Wang Xiaolie said to Jiang Min: "Your next main task is to build roads in the mountains. The map has marked the main roads. They need to be widened and renovated to be able to run large vehicles. We are fighting now, which requires a lot of logistics. High, it cannot be ignored.”
Jiang Min said yes.
Wang Xiaolie sighed: "I will go back to Luoyang in a few days. As I was about to leave, I remembered all kinds of things, for fear that you might not do well. But when I thought about it again, wasn't it just because I believed in you? What makes you achieve this position? In fact, I ask less questions, so it is easier for you to perform. This matter is too important, so I think more about it. So I would like to remind you at the end, don’t underestimate your work, do your best. "
Jiang Min thought for a while and said: "Don't worry, Xuanfu, we will naturally work hard and do the current things well. I am in Shizhou, no matter what the future war in Taiyuan will be, I will definitely not be unknown."
Wang Xiaolie looked at Jiang Min and patted his shoulder with his hand: "I believe you. Don't think I'm wordy or talk too much. After I leave, you have to do the things I said and do the things I didn't say. You must also handle it well. Everyone can see that the focus of the war in Hedong is Taiyuan Prefecture, and our base is in Jinzhou. You must go beyond these common sense and do something unusual."
Jiang Min and Zhang Jun said yes together, looking a little eager to give it a try.
Wang Xiaolie burst into laughter: "I'm always afraid that you guys can't do well. In fact, don't you think that I'm too wordy and too eager to talk? I always feel that I don't explain enough, but you feel that I talk too much. There is no other way, so we have to go our separate ways. tried."
Jiang Min and Zhang Jun smiled together.
Wang Xiaolie told the truth. It is precisely because I believe them that I say this. There is no intrigue.
