has become a demon

"The last general led the original Fuwang left guard army with 2000 troops. When Ningxia put down the Yexing rebellion, it took in 430 or six stragglers, a total of 490 or 120 soldiers, and [-] or [-] horses."

Kan Yufeng put a red counting chip on the table, looked at Zhao Yuan, saw that Zhao Yuan was listening carefully, and continued: "General Xiao Jiang took the Yuquan battalion soldiers to defect, the number has been counted, a total of 110 three people, the horses Less than [-] horses. The grain and grass brought from Ganzhou and the grain and grass seized from Yexingbu before this amounted to [-] shi, and the number of cattle and sheep was several thousand."

Zhao Yuan made some calculations in his mind, and said, "Food is not an urgent need, and it can last for more than a month. Now the 6000 people need to be combined into one and reorganized."

"What the prince said is very true." Xiao Jiang said, "these troops come from three groups, one is scattered soldiers, the other is Yuquan camp, and the other is guards. They all went through the bloody battle in Ningxia and saw the ferocity of the Tatars. Those who can survive are all experienced veterans. If they are broken up and reorganized, they will be promoted in terms of military merits and followed by training, which should not be underestimated."

Zhao Yuan nodded.

"Then according to the prince's system, set up a guard commander and envoy, 6000 people will be organized into six thousand households, and re-issued badges to join the division. What do you think?"

"Choose [-] fine cavalry from among them, led by Shao Chuan, to serve as His Highness's personal guards and protect His Highness comprehensively." Xie Taichu said.

Zhao Yuan looked at him and wanted to decline, but Xiao Jiang smiled and said: "I think the Taoist priest is right. Your safety is the most important thing. This cavalry should take the prince's safety as the first. I agree."

Kan Yufeng also said: "The last general also agrees."

Tao Shaochuan hurriedly said, "I can do it, I can do it!"

Everyone agreed, and Zhao Yuan couldn't refute. He sighed and said seriously, "Kan Yufeng."

Kan Yufeng stepped forward and clasped her fists: "The end is here."

"Brother Feng, this king ordered you to be Prince Su's guard commander and Si Zuo commander."

The position of the left commander is the highest commander of the entire command and envoy department. Kan Yufeng is not surprised by honor or disgrace, but solemnly said: "The lord treats me with trust, and I will die to repay the trust of the lord."

Xiao Jiang frowned: "It's unlucky to die at a young age."

"Brother Feng, you are being serious." After Zhao Yuan finished speaking to him, he looked at Xiao Jiang again.

Xiao Jiang is dressed side by side with Kan Yufeng.

"He Jun, thank you for putting all your eggs in one basket and coming here. This king ordered you to be Prince Su's guard commander and commander Siyou."

Xiao Jiang clasped her fists and said with a smile: "Your Highness's lofty ambition is for the prosperity of the country and the safety of the people. You don't need to thank me, I should thank Your Highness for such lofty sentiments."

"Then, the guards will trouble the two of you." After Zhao Yuan finished speaking, he waited for the two to return to the sand table and said, "Besides this, what other forces can we deploy in the future?"

Kan Yufeng replied: "Although we only have 6000 people, if it is really difficult to send troops to calm down, the power of the guard of honor will be a lot."

He first pointed to Gansu.

"Fuwang's 3 guards have been incorporated into the guards of Ganzhou by the old prince before. Now there are more than [-] troops available. Today's commander-in-chief Zhang Xiquan is my father's former soldier. As long as His Highness revolts , Ganzhou's [-] soldiers and horses can listen to His Highness' orders."

"There is also Xiang Ming, the general infantry of Ningxia, commanding the front, middle and rear guards of Ningxia, who can mobilize [-] troops. Before we leave Zhenbeiguan, the infantry general's blood letter has been handed over to Taoist Ningshan for collection."

Guard six thousand.

One hundred thousand in Ganzhou.

Eighty thousand in Ningxia.

Kan Yufeng inserted small flags symbolizing the distribution of the army into the sand table one by one.

In a short time, red flags stood densely on the northern border.

Seeing people excited.

Tao Shaochuan clapped his hands, and said with emotion: "There are 18 horses, why worry that it will be difficult [Note 1]?"

"Daduan's Five Armies Commander's Mansion controls all the soldiers in the world. Do you know how many troops are in Daduan's army?" Xie Taichu asked him.

"How much?" Tao Shaochuan said, "50."

"At most, the number of military households could reach 200 million. Now that Daduan has retreated to Monan and the north is in turmoil, Daduan also has 80 registered soldiers and 50 cavalry. 15 of them are permanently stationed along the northern border wall. There are nearly [-] elite soldiers around Shuntian Mansion alone. The vast territory is continuously transporting all kinds of luggage to supply the army. If there is not enough food, send food, if there is not enough horses, recruit horses, and if there are not enough soldiers, turn the people into soldiers." Xie Taichu road.

Tao Shaochuan was a little at a loss: "Then, how can we settle down?"

No one answered his question.

It is not without reason that Daduan has a bird's-eye view of the world and the world.

You may briefly be able to carve a tasty morsel of fat from its massive body.

But want to knock down this giant, want to face it head-on.

Anyone should say the last sentence: it is ridiculous to shake a big tree.

"No, it's still possible." Zhao Yuan raised his head to look at Xie Taichu, and said enthusiastically, "Taichu, do you still remember what you analyzed with me during the New Year, if the Tatars want to take my head, the possible route? "

"What is His Highness referring to?"

"Zhan Ningxia, this is almost done. But the next thing, he has no chance to try."

Zhao Yuan pointed to the sand table.

"Occupy Ningxia, enter Weizhou; go to Lintao, enter Qinchuan. Gain Xi'an, gain Luoyang, gain Kaifeng. Then Daduan's hinterland will go straight to Xuzhou. Occupying Xuzhou, Daduan's heart will be broken!"

Memories of New Year's Day came flooding back one by one.

He and Xie Taichu had just experienced a bloody battle, and the traumatized Zhang Liangbao welcomed the New Year in numb grief.

Xie Taichu turned on the lamp and analyzed the future situation with him. He wrapped his strong arms around his waist, warmed his body temperature, and whispered in his ear.

It's all clearly as if it happened last night...

Maybe he had expected this day before, so he had the intention of preaching like this.

He looked up at Xie Taichu, Xie Taichu showed a hint of approval: "Your Highness is wise."

Sure enough... at that time he had already planned the way of Jing Nan's army.

It is a lie to say that there is no shaking in my heart.

But Zhao Yuan felt a kind of panic for no reason—a vague and indescribable premonition.

It's as if something... has been overlooked.

He was in a state of confusion, and it took a while before he continued: "Now our strength comes from Ganning and Ningxia in the northwest. If this is really the plan, there must be forces in Datong, Xuanfu, Kaiping and Guangning to hold back There are armies around Shuntian Mansion. At that time, our army will come down from the northwest, and another force will exert pressure from the northeast. Zhao Ji will not have the heart to think about the behind-the-scenes matters, and we can rush in thousands of miles and take advantage of the situation!"

Xiao Jiang shook her head: "Your Highness thinks carefully, how can there be any troops to borrow?"

"Not without it." Xie Taichu said.

"Oh?" Xiao Jiang looked at him, "Could it be that you mean... please ask the Taoist priest to clarify."

Xie Taichu pointed to the nearest city on the sand table to Yinshan Mountain.

"Guihua City. Third lady."
