Chapter 174

Wang Pu feels very oppressive. He is extremely oppressive. He has a thousand fairly good subordinates, not to mention elite, but he has practice from time to time. It may be a little worrying to fight in the field, but he can definitely fight based on the city wall defense.

The reason for holding back was that a boss who did everything slowly took a few shots. Wang Pu only gave an order to ask the city gate captain to close the city gate, and then the city... Fell?

"The new army?" Wang Pu certainly has a family in Xiami: "another name for the slave army?"

As for why we should choose people with families, it is very easy to understand. Being single will not have any concerns. We can turn back or escape at any time. Having a family is tantamount to having hostages in the hands of the Han ministry.

Gaining was deeply impressed by the resolute middle-aged man because of his appearance and clothes. Jin people love to be casual or dignified at first sight, and there is also the hidden rule of not being an official if they don't look right.

"Name?"

"Wang Pu."

"Guanji?"

"Xiamiben."

Gaining and Wang Pu are recording the dialogue. In fact, there are many people standing next to them, including Wang Pu's immediate family members, two old people, three young women, three girls and six young men.

The final statistics show that 70% of the prisoners of war have families, that is, 700 new troops will appear in the former secret garrison equal to 1000.

"Where will our family be sent?" Wang Pu was still a school captain, but as a school captain of the newly attached army, his status was equivalent to that of the village commander of the war soldiers in the Han Dynasty.

Gaining had great kindness to the resolute man and said with a smile, "naturally, he sent it to Dongmou county first."

Wang Pu was silent.

Xiami is a city at the easternmost end of Beihai county. The surrounding water system is much more than other places. Mi township is about 20 miles away from the South and Duchang city (Chang 1 city) is about 30 miles away from the West.

How else can Beihai county be close to each other? For example, Changguang County, Dongmou county and Donglai County, the distance between cities is basically more than 100 Li, and there are few two cities within 30 Li.

On the other side, Liu Yan is patrolling the city, taking Zhang Liang with him in order to learn more about the situation.

"Are you interested in becoming an official in the Han Dynasty?" Liu Yan's question stunned Zhang Liang: "you look like a person who can be a 'parent official'."

The more he understood Xiami, the more Liu Yan felt that this guy with the same name as Hou had some skills.

There are 4623 residents in Xiami city. Jin people account for 40% of them, and the rest are Hu people. What is slightly different from other cities is that Xiami is relatively peaceful under the governance of Zhang Liang, with less tension or wanton bullying among different races.

In addition, Liu Yan personally checked the layout of Xiami city and found that the city construction of Xiami had a strict layout. Combined with the city walls and other fortifications, he really felt that Zhang Liang was a rare talent.

"I didn't say to pay the ransom, and then..." Zhang Liang was confused. He was not desperate. Why did he need to go to a small tribe when there were people in the court? He said with a confused face, "do you really don't know your situation, or do you fake it?"

"Oh?" Liu Yan really didn't know: "refers to the Yao family or Shi bin?"

Zhang Liang is speechless. It seems that Liu Yan knows, but it doesn't seem to be the case?

There is a shortage of talents in the Han Dynasty. The more the territory expands, the more scarce the talents are. The inability to effectively manage the occupied territory is tantamount to the empty land, which is difficult to transform into the nutrients of the war.

Liu Yan has sent people to Wei county to find Wang Meng, but he doesn't know when to find Wang Meng. As for finding Wang Meng, will Wang Meng come? Do you need to think more? If you don't come voluntarily, tie it!

If you want to develop and expand your power, it is not enough to have high-end talents. The grass-roots level is crucial, and the middle level is indispensable. It takes enough time to cultivate yourself or recruit outside.

LV Yi was instructed by Liu Yan to write letters to call friends from the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

There are many unsuccessful scholars in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, especially those who are difficult to have a place in officialdom. After all, if you want to be an official in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, you need to look at your blood. Even a stupid pig can be an official as long as it has noble blood, but it is difficult for people with talent and no noble blood to show their talent. After all, it is no joke that there are no poor families at the top and no gentry at the bottom.

Zhang Liangqi AI refused, thinking that he could leave Xiami before the war began. If he wants to leave, he needs the family to bring ransom. His own ransom and the ransom of various families in Xiami are equal to paying money and delivering goods. He pays attention to no credit.

Xiami city has a good urban defense, that is, the city wall is flat and straight without edges and corners. In addition, there is no position for placing bed crossbows on the city wall. If you want to fight a defense war here, you must carry out some new construction.

"There will be new satellite cities, and bed crossbows will be placed on the city walls." Liu Yan said that systematic farmers have been arranged to build a sub City covering an area of about three hectares: "what changes have taken place in MI Township and Duchang?"

LV Yi seems to be distracted. The main reason is that the city building speed of the systematic farmers is really exaggerated. About 300 people have built a considerable scale of stone walls in less than two days. I have never seen such an efficient city building speed.

Defensive warfare can not just stick to a main city, so it really needs the existence of satellite cities, that is, to form a corner. The satellite city doesn't need to be too big or even very strong. Its existence is to create fighters.

In addition to a satellite city with stone walls, Liu Yan also set up a camp next to the glue, which means that Xiami City, satellite city and Castle become an irregular triangle and become the most stable corner.

"Ah? Oh!" LV Yi was called several times before he came back to his mind. He immediately said, "Mi township is like before. There are troops in Duchang."

Mr. Gong Tao also appeared in Duchang. He took a group of scholars or people who didn't know where to come from. After arriving in Duchang, the army began to gather there.

The Ministry of Han brought Donglai academy and captured a large number of students and important figures of various families. Is it almost equivalent to friction with most of Qingzhou? But those guys went to Laishan to discuss the partition of Changguang county and Dongmou county. Did they deserve to be caught?

LV Yi is already fully aware of Liu Yan's idea, otherwise the line commander Shi Ke can't go on. He still didn't understand why he wanted to fight a passive defensive war, and he didn't understand how the so-called "continuous source of troops" should come. Seeing that Liu Yan easily turned most of Xiami's garrison into a new attached army, he began to think in the wrong direction.

The new attached army is not only played by the Han Dynasty, but also by those Hu people who established the state. Liu Yan still learned from the Murong family when he engaged in the new attached army, but only selected those with families in Xiami, which is a new attempt.

Next, with the continuous expansion of the Han Dynasty, the scale of the new armed forces will inevitably become larger and larger. It may no longer be limited to having family members, but the new armed forces with family members will become the backbone to restrict and supervise those new armed forces without family members.

Of course, Lu Yi's understanding was that way. He thought Liu Yan wanted to constantly absorb prisoners of war and become a new attached army. He just has more wisdom. If Liu Yan doesn't speak, how can he know that there is a "system".

For Liu Yanlai, LV Yi doesn't need to know too much. As a marching long history, he makes a layout according to the needs of the chief General. As for how the source of troops comes, it doesn't matter at all. Just need to know that there will be a continuous source of troops.

"According to the dynamic of war preparation, only when there are about 60000 troops gathered in Duchang will they close down." LV Yi looked around. It was just like that outside the city. There were many soldiers walking around the city: "if they were more cautious, they might need to gather more than 80000 troops. They even suspected that they wanted to rely on the city to fight a defensive war."

Liu Yan was stunned. What the siege pays attention to is "ten times the enemy", that is, if there are 10000 garrisons in the city, it needs 100000 to siege. Those guys of Donglai academy are literati. Is it really possible to completely follow the military book?

Fucking literati unifying the army is a disaster. It's very powerful, but those who are cute and stupid are extremely cute and stupid. No matter whether Mr. Gong Tao is powerful or cute and stupid in unifying the army, it's not a good thing for the Han ministry.

"Is there any way to attract the enemy in Duchang immediately?" Liu Yan frowned and said, "what's the probability that they won't come in Duchang?"

LV Yi smiled bitterly, pointing to the satellite city under construction outside the city and the walled city already established: "it depends on you."

So, in order to fight a good defense war, making defense facilities a drag? Will it frighten the literati not to lead the army to attack?

It's really a very possible thing, but it's also impossible to stop Liu Yan's arrangement. If the enemy doesn't come, the Han ministry doesn't really have much so-called. Anyway, now it has captured Donglai County, which is equivalent to Liu Yan's mastery of three counties in houzhao. It should take some time to integrate and digest.

"Sir, in fact, we can't afford it." LV Yi seems to have kept a bitter smile for a while? He pulled his finger: "the Yao family must look back on Donggu after solving the trouble. Then Shi bin will come back after the northern expedition. Then... Our expedition will hinder Shi Hu's' female mining 'and exploitation in Qingzhou."

There is one thing, Liu Yan is the Sheriff of houzhao. Of course, he also received the order issued by Shi Hu, that is, to select beautiful women among the people, he also has to pay more taxes than in previous years.

Liu Yan didn't ignore Shi Hu's orders. Didn't they just come back from Chaoxian Peninsula*** The selection of a number of cross payments is that the tax is increased by 30% according to the proportion in previous years.

"Maybe... Too many people want this war to drag on?" LV Yi seemed a little worried: "once the imperial court thinks that the king's opening of the war hinders the 'collection of women', I'm afraid the consequences will be unpredictable."

Liu Yan didn't think so much before. When Lu Yi reminded him, he suddenly said, "those guys will push everything on my head?"

LV Yi nodded: "inevitable."

"Ha ha..." Liu Yan grinned again: "ha ha!"
