Goguryeo, Xuanjiajun military camp
The officers and men were sitting on the ground, with hot wine and some meat on the table.
The post-war meeting lasted for a full hour, and the post-war meeting made these generals feel drowsy.
But they still managed not to sleep, because Lord Wu An’s strategic intentions remained the same, but he changed his tactics.
Originally, he planned to directly kill the opponent's royal city and then radiate towards the surrounding areas.
Unexpectedly, Goguryeo's elite were so brave and good at fighting. No one escaped until the opponent surrendered.
"Okay, I have finished the analysis. After all, no matter how brave our soldiers are, no matter how well-equipped they are, they will still die in battle."
"So, from now on, the first priority is to seize the royal city, but we must let the opponent reduce its numbers as much as possible, otherwise our future battles will not be easy, and may even cause large-scale casualties."
Yang Qian calculated the household registration in the five counties and knew how many people and soldiers there were. Once they were used up, it would be very difficult to replenish them.
Moreover, fighting is very labor-intensive. If someone fights the war, someone must grow food. Yang Qian really does not want the entire Xia Kingdom to use Shang Yang's policy.
If a country only has farming and fighting and nothing else, what's the point? Unification of the Central Plains is not the only way to go through farming and warfare.
Yang Qian had a structure that was more than 2,000 years ahead of this era, and he had many ways to unify the Central Plains quickly and effectively without using Shang Yang's plan to wipe out every household.
The generals ate wine and meat while listening to Wu Anjun's analysis, which made everyone feel happy.
"Everyone, starting from today, implement a strategy, which is to find the rebels, attract the elites of Goguryeo, let them fight with each other, and when the battle is in full swing, directly surround, annihilate, and capture them."
A young general frowned and asked curiously, "Your Majesty, why don't you wait until they finish fighting before dispatching? Instead of dispatching when they are halfway through the fight?"
Yang Qian smiled, this guy finally got the point.
"Whether they are rebels or elites, they are all our enemies and our prisoners. We need a lot of slaves, do you understand?"
"promise!"
Yang Qian didn't want to catch some of the prisoners when some of them had already been killed.
From a work perspective, the efficiency difference between Goguryeo's elite and the rebels is basically not big, and even if there is a gap, it will not be big.
Therefore, the most cost-effective and safest way is to defeat Goguryeo's elite and rebels in one fell swoop.
Yang Qian also divided the tasks, with ten thousand people as an army, and would add reinforcements when they arrived.
Dozens of scouts were constantly probing outside, and when they saw people, they would plunder them and come back, and torture them to get the information. Anyway, they were doing whatever was convenient for them. The most important thing was to plunder their population.
In the medical tent.
Zhang Yumeng took the lead and began to treat the wounded. Many Goguryeo soldiers were also dumbfounded. What on earth were these mysterious troops doing?
Several Goguryeo soldiers looked at each other.
"We are not prisoners. We should be locked up and tortured. How can we be treated?"
"I didn't know that I was given food. Although it was corn, there was still some meat."
A Goguryeo soldier looked at the lunch box in his hand and was dumbfounded.
"Nima, the food is better than the army rations. I told you earlier, I told you that the prisoners can be fed so well. Why don't you just take them prisoner? Why would you beat them? It would hurt your employees."
"It's just that these people are so bad. If I had told them earlier, I would have surrendered long ago."
"If it were me, you wouldn't even need to say anything, just put the food in front of me and I would surrender."
In their subconscious mind, these people are basically the elite of the rebel forces. It must be a noble who started the war, otherwise why would everyone speak the language of the nobles.
After Zhang Yumeng sutured and treated the wounded one by one, she began to patrol the medical tent. After seeing the techniques of some military doctors, she immediately frowned.
Not long after, she came to Bai
In front of the commander, he frowned and said, "Are there two groups of military doctors who are accompanying the army this time?"
Bai Chang raised his eyes and nodded, "Yes, military doctors are scarce. Men who are in good health want to join the army and don't want to be military doctors."
"We women cannot join the army. Our families are poor and we can only become military doctors."
Zhang Yumeng suddenly said, "No wonder, some military doctors have very bad hands. They stitched a small cut shut until the skin was almost torn. Fortunately, they were soldiers from Goguryeo."
"If you are our soldiers, see if those generals will give you any trouble."
Bai Chang looked in the direction of the new military doctor, twitching his lips and shaking his head helplessly.
"There is nothing we can do about it. No matter how good military medical skills are, they cannot reach our level without training. It seems that if we don't fight in the future, we still have to apply for it. I want to go to the grassland and practice it."
The situation in Yuntong County is completely different from other places. Even when there is no war, there will be situations where swords and soldiers are used. These small-scale conflicts are basically concentrated on the grassland.
There are more than just three Xiongnu tribes on the grassland. In addition to suppressing those who dare to resist the rules set by Yang Qian, there are also three tribes who lost control of the grassland.
A large number of nomads migrated from other places. After all, everyone is not an idiot. The further south you go, the better the climate and the easier your life.
Especially in places three or four thousand miles away from Yuntong County, summers are fine, but winters are downright freezing. Even if you don't get sick, it's extremely difficult to survive with a healthy body.
Not to mention getting sick. Once you get sick in winter, you are basically sentenced to death. There are also some women who give birth to children in winter, and the ending is often very miserable.
When the tribesmen can't bear it anymore, they will migrate to the south, and usually come into contact with the Xuanjia Army.
The rules of the Xuanjia Army are very simple. If there are 5,000 outsiders, then you are lucky. If you obey our rule, pay the prescribed handicrafts on time or tame cattle and sheep, then you can live here. .
If a foreign tribe only has one or two thousand people, then use the family as a unit to add to the tribes that do not have five thousand people to disrupt them.
Of course, there are also people who insist on coming in but do not obey management and the rules set by Yang Qian.
Usually these people will be gently invited in by the Xuanjia Army. Once they come in, the Xuanjia Army will immediately change their expressions to ferocious expressions, lock the door and let the dogs out, and be suppressed in minutes.
These repressions were often accompanied by military merit. Although temporary promotion was difficult, military merit could be exchanged for money, grain, farm tools, and cattle.
When you return to Yuntong County, you can buy things to enjoy and improve your quality of life.
Who does not like?
Of course, these nomads who were tricked into suppressing basically ended up very miserable.
Not only were all the men dragged away to become slaves, but the women were also forced to be civilized.
Although prairie women are looked down upon by many Xia people, who despise them because of their strong smell.
But these women will be gathered together and managed by the Tianshou Division to adapt them to the customs and diet of the Central Plains, and they will also be allowed to bathe regularly.
Teach them to learn the Central Plains dialect. If the child they bring is a girl, then they are lucky and will not be separated. If the child is a boy, the mother and child will be separated, and the boy will be taken to work.
It's not that Yang Qian is cruel, but that this world is cruel.
But there are always some people who will become bachelors for various reasons. When these women lack the prairie customs and have no strong body odor, they will be uniformly distributed by the county governor's office.
Mainly distributed to some disabled soldiers.
After all, women are also war resources. Yang Qian is now racking his brains every day on how to increase the population.
Although there are many decrees on childbirth, there must be a process. Slaves are like a bug to the development of the county.
There was also a joke at the time. After exchanges between Yang Gan, Cao Wushuang and Mu Qing, they discovered that prairie women must not be assigned to people who like domestic violence, because prairie women have strong bodies and are good at work.
But he is also very strong. Although it is impossible to resist the county magistrate's mansion, it is not difficult to kill someone with a knife if he is really pissed off by a man in the family.
Therefore, anyone who wants to be proficient in medical skills hopes to apply to go to the border. Even if it is bitterly cold, they may learn good skills.
If you are lucky and can be taught by some doctors, then it will not be simple military medical skills, but real medical skills, the kind that can cure diseases and save people.
Zhang Yumeng raised her eyebrows and said unexpectedly, "Going to the grassland? Have you been there?"
The eldest female military doctor shook her head and said, "I have never been there. I heard from others that life is quite difficult?"
Zhang Yumeng shook his head proudly and said, "I've been there. It's freezing cold and the grassland is bitterly cold. Most people can't survive. If you are sure you want to go, I'll talk to Mr. Wu'an."
Bai Chang's eyes lit up, but gradually dimmed again.
"Forget it, this time the battle is not over, we can't go anywhere!!"
"Okay, if you need anything, just tell me directly, you're welcome."
During this period of training, the two of them have established a deep relationship, and there is absolutely no problem with a few small requests.
Yuntong County, within Zhuangzi.
Fuji Ziyun received the message early, and based on Zhang Yumeng's drawings, she also called Li Wang, who often worked with her, and a large group of blacksmiths.
These people have all worked with Zhang Xiaoniang and are familiar with some of her routines, so they will not make something non-mainstream.
"I think it's okay."
"It's better to use a thicker plastic chain, as I'm afraid it will be bad if it breaks."
Everyone nodded and thought it made sense, but Li Wang didn't think so. He frowned, looked at the analysis of the sea's wind and waves, and said in a deep voice.
"Why make a chain? No matter how strong it is, plastic is still plastic. If it breaks, it will be troublesome. Why not just make four or five chains without doing anything else? There is absolutely no problem in using four or five thick plastic chains. question."
Everyone looked at him in surprise. This was the first time anyone dared to modify Zhang Xiaoniang's design draft.
