"drive!!!"

The strong sound of shouting and the sound of horse hooves was very excited. Wu Nian and Tie Niu and more than ten riders rode their horses to reach the city gate.

The "Wu" symbol on the city gate tower is flying in the wind and making noise. A team of strong and highly morale soldiers stand with weapons and hold their heads with their heads raised.

The city gate is open.

Liu Zhixing, Li Yong, Wei Ru, Liu Wu, Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng, Chen Jiagui and others led the officials in the General's Mansion of the Sui Han Dynasty to welcome him in two rows.

"Everyone, I'm back." Wu Nian stopped the horse, but exerted too much force, and the war horseman stood up.

It neighed to the sky before it stood firm again and sneeze. Wu Nian laughed loudly and turned over and dismounted.

Liu Zhixing and others looked up at Wu Nian. The empty heart that had been empty for several months was landfilled again and began to become full.

This is [Soul].

Without Wu Nian and the others, they were just a pile of loose sand. With Wu Nian and the others, they were called Beishan Fort.

"General."

Everyone was convinced and bowed to Wu Nian together with Liu Zhixing.

"Everyone get up. Let's go to the general's mansion to talk." Wu Nian had too much to say in his heart, but after looking at the situation at the city gate, there were many soldiers, causing trouble to the people entering and leaving the city gate. He waved his hand and ordered.

"yes."

Everyone responded loudly, each of them turned over their horses, surrounded Wu Nian and entered Beishan Fort, and came to the long-lost General Supplementary Han Mansion.

After dismounting, everyone went to the main hall to sit down.

Wu Nian was not feeling comfortable sitting with the armor and couldn't help but twist his waist. At this time, the personal soldiers walked in with tea cups.

"Is it the wild camellia tea from our Beishan Fort?" Wu Nian raised his head and asked his personal soldiers with a smile.

"It's this year's wild camellia tea." The personal soldiers also smiled and bent down towards Wu Nian.

Wu Nian couldn't wait to pick up the teacup, blew a few breaths, then took a small sip, and a comfortable look appeared on his face. He looked up and said to everyone, "What a long-lost wild camellia tea."

"Everyone, let me drink this cup of tea before talking about it."

As he said that, Wu Nian squinted his eyes and tasted the tea.

The Han people did not need to cultivate tea. However, Wu Nian was not a person who was particularly particular about tea, but after the dragon fought in the wild, he returned to the dragon's nest.

Drinking your own wild camellia tea is a long aftertaste.

Everyone naturally had no objection to Wu Nian's small request, and they all started to drink tea.

Some people are chewing peonies, and some people are chewing peonies.

After drinking a cup of tea, Wu Nian breathed out, smiled in his eyes, looked at Liu Zhixing, and asked, "Shi Liu. What's the situation in our Beishan Fort now?"

Liu Zhixing certainly knew what Wu Nian meant. He smiled and clasped his fists and said, "General. Now our Beishan Fort, Mangya Mountain City, Chengtian Fort, and Tiancheng Fort are already overcrowded. I decided to split some people and settled them in the empty castle that the general and us. In some mountains, we also installed civilian villages."

"This is a map. There is also a population roster."

Liu Zhixing, who was prepared, took out a folded silk map from his sleeve and a booklet. He came to Wu Nian, bent down and handed it over, and then sat back.

Wu Nian reached out to take the thing, put down the booklet first, expanded the topographic map and took a look.

The four castles, Beishan Fort, Tiancheng Fort, Mangya Mountain City, and Chengshan Fort, are located in the center of the map. They spread outward, and there are a total of nine castles.

This includes Zhang Guangbao, which he personally conquered.

There are also some civilian copycats, including Zhang Jin's former seclusion Phoenix Mountain.

Although the other side of Phoenix Mountain is remote, there is arable land.

According to this layout, even if there are nine castles at present, the population is too large, it cannot be settled, and the area of ​​arable land is too small.

That's why I set up a mountain village on the mountains with arable land like Fenghuang Mountain.

There are many castles on this mountain, but with their current situation, the nine castles are already at their limit.

Other castles are not connected, or are too close to the county town, making it difficult to defend.

Wu Nian's eyes flashed across the map, revealing a thoughtful look. He knew all these castles and also knew what terrain.

Depending on the terrain, many things can be evolved.

Wu Nian put down the topographic map, picked up the population list on the coffee table and looked at it. Expand the booklet, there was only one line of words.

There are 172,365 men and women.

After staring at the lines of words for a long time, Wu Nian let out a long sigh.

Although it is a little more realistic.

But population is the key.

Just have enough food and grass to eat.

No matter how much gold and silver are snatched, it is not meaningful to spend it at present.

Iron armor, weapons, battle bows, arrows. This time they attacked from both ends and seized a lot.

There are seven or eight hundred war horses.

A population of 170,000 can be summoned to recruit twenty thousand households.

The original population of Beishan Fort was only more than 70,000.

There are only seven thousand soldiers.

Doubled.

After a long time, Wu Nian, who had recovered from peace, put down the booklet, raised his head and looked at everyone. He said, "I have a lot of ideas, but I don't know how to start."

"By the way. Right. Right. Let's start with the population."

"These populations are all directly under our Beishan Fort?" Wu Nian raised his head and looked at Liu Zhixing and asked.

This sentence is a bit subtle.

The generals are all unrelated to their own affairs.

Liu Zhixing and Li Yong showed a thoughtful look.

"Yes." Liu Zhixing nodded and said.

"Calculate the population of the mountain villages within the nine castles. We used to encourage the people of the mountain village to join the army and encourage them to pay the food."

"On the one hand, it is to win people's hearts, and on the other hand, it is because I am not powerful enough."

"Now I have fought with four Montenegro households and escaped unscrupulously. Weide has been established. And the war will definitely be even greater."

"When I send troops again, I will occupy the county town instead of seizing the supplies and leaving. We need more soldiers."

"The people in the mountain village are also from the Han people in Liaodong. If they do not want to be ruled by the Mongols, they cannot stay out of the matter."

"They have to give out food and people."

"Shi Liu, please send someone to count the population of these mountain villages and collect food. The taxes are set to be lower. As for the war soldiers, we should focus on publicity."

"Even if you can't fight, you have to do manpower to build water conservancy, build fortifications, etc."

"Then we expanded the war soldiers to twenty-one thousand households. Each captain commanded three thousand households."

"In addition, find a talent who can lead cavalry. I want to form a heavy armored cavalry of six hundred households, which is also known as a thousand households."

"In addition, the jurisdictions of each captain must also be changed."

"There is no need to send troops to guard a safe castle, and the castle that needs heavy troops to guard the periphery needs to be guarded by the captain himself."

"We will discuss the above based on these."

After saying this in one breath, Wu Nian raised his head, curled his smile, and said seriously and in a deep voice.

This time.

Regardless of civil servants or foreign generals, they all took a breath.

Adding a heavy armored cavalry, a complete force of twenty-two thousand households is a complete force of twenty-two thousand households.

Calculate based on a complete thousand-house troops and about one thousand two hundred people.

The size of the Beishan Fort war soldiers reached about 26,000.

This is an extremely huge military force. Even if the population of the surrounding mountain villages is still a military force.

True military force.

King Fuchai of Wu may feel ashamed of himself after seeing it.
