Virtue Pavilion.

Wu Nian was wearing a purple robe and was sitting on the throne. On his left and right were two Goguryeo eunuchs with fair faces and no beards, holding whisks in their hands.

In front of him were the three cabinet ministers Liu Zhixing, Li Yong, and Zhang Haiping, as well as the chief officer of the Imperial City Department Chen Jiagui, generals Zhang Sheng, Wang Gui, Zhao Mancheng, Li Yunchong and other generals.

Everyone stood in civil and military positions, and the scene was solemn.

"My lords, the purpose of coming to you today is very simple. I want to take back Huanglong Mansion, fulfill my long-cherished wish to expel the Tartars and regain Liaodong."

Wu Nian raised his head, his eyes were bright, he scanned the crowd and said in a deep voice.

Expelled the Tartars and recovered Liaodong.

Because of these eight words, countless people responded to Wu Nian's call and joined the army. After more than ten years of hard work, the Han Dynasty was finally established.

These eight words seem to have magic power.

Except for Li Yunchong and Zhao Mancheng, almost everyone present was excited.

Immediately, Wu Nian turned his attention to the chief assistant Liu Zhixing.

Liu Zhixing cupped his hands, and then said in a deep voice to everyone: "According to the information from the Imperial City Division, Chunyuan has already made up one million households. His name is Jin Xuanyun. He is a relative of the Jin clan. He is very young, brave and good at fighting."

"We took the time to conquer Goguryeo and swallowed up a land twice the size of Liaodong. We became fat in one bite. But the Mongolians are not standing still."

Zhang Sheng pinched his chin and said.

"In total, we have developed faster. Let's not talk about the money, food and equipment from Goguryeo. Just talking about soldiers, we have two more Goguryeo households, General Zhao and General Li."

While Wang Gui was speaking, he raised his head and glanced at Li Yunchong and Zhao Mancheng.

Li Yunchong is also a talented general, and Zhao Mancheng is a snow unicorn. With ten thousand enemies, he will definitely not be worse than Meng Yuan ten thousand households in a fight.

When Li Yunchong and Zhao Mancheng heard this, they immediately clasped their fists and saluted Wu Nian: "Your Majesty, after this period of training, our army is already elite enough and ready to go to war at any time."

Wu Nian smiled and nodded and said: "Okay. The morale of the two generals is high, which is very good. But there is no need to worry. Now we are just discussing the battle, not sending troops."

"We have to wait a little longer."

Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunchong selected the strongest among the troops surrendered by Goguryeo and obtained two soldiers of ten thousand households. Although the two had outstanding abilities, Wu Nian was still uneasy.

The longer a soldier trains, the more elite he becomes.

"Just now we talked about the military accounts. The Mongolian Yuan Dynasty gained 10,000 households, and we gained 20,000 households. Let's talk about the economic accounts."

When Wu Nian said this, a smile appeared on his face and eyes, and he said: "Before, the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty united with Goguryeo, Fusang, and Chu to ban our maritime trade."

"Now that we have obtained the land of Goguryeo, let alone maritime trade, we have directly organized the commerce of the Jiufu land into a large circle and integrated it."

"Currently, Navy Admiral Li Tianbao and others are also in conflict with the Fuso Navy, and the two sides are winning or losing. Now our maritime trade with Chu is gradually recovering. Various specialties from Liaodong and Goguryeo can be sold at good prices.

"

"On the contrary, the Mongolian people are having a hard time. There are powerful enemies to the west, and the land route to the south is blocked by us. The valuables such as Haidongqing, Dongzhu, and Changbai Mountain ginseng in their hands are either sold to us at low prices.

Gather it in your hands."

Having said this, Wu Nian finally laughed out loud and said: "Now we are blocking them."

Meng Yuan does not have an outlet to the sea, but it does not have an ice-free port. In the long winter, there is no icebreaker, so it needs to be closed.

Moreover, the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty did not have a navy, and now it was blocked by the Han Dynasty in reverse.

This is completely different from the Liaodong Jiangmen period.

At that time, for example, Ban Bian Zhang resold military supplies and grain to the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties. The generals of Liaodong were raising tigers and causing trouble.

Now.

Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi.

Wu Nian grabbed Meng Yuan's neck with his backhand. Meng Yuan's biggest advantage now is their military capabilities.

Economic ability is not worth mentioning.

"Hahaha."

Zhang Sheng was so happy that he burst into laughter.

Liu Zhixing glanced at him and he immediately shut up.

"I have disobeyed you." Zhang Sheng bowed and saluted.

"Okay, they are all brothers." Wu Nian also smiled.

Although he keeps saying that he cannot be a grassroots team, brothers are still brothers.

Liu Zhixing looked at the monarch and his ministers and said nothing more. Of course, Zhang Haiping and Li Yong would not say anything.

After laughing, Wu Nian looked at everyone again and asked: "How is it? Now they have tens of thousands of households guarding Huanglong Mansion. Guard. They still have an advantage. How can we eat this hard nut?"

Your Majesty, you can speak freely. I forgive you."

This question stumped everyone.

Ten thousand households guard six cities, and on average they can be divided into almost two ten thousand households. The combat effectiveness of the Mongolian and Yuan generals of ten thousand households is self-evident.

What's more, defending the city?

They had also thought about how to attack Huanglong Mansion on weekdays. But they came to the conclusion that the only way was to attack by force. And if they attacked by force, everyone could think of it, and of course it was not a strategy.

Li Yunchong looked hesitant.

Wu Nian's eyes were as bright as fire, and he immediately looked at Li Yunchong, and said with a smile: "Uncle Li, don't hide and be clingy, just say what you have to say."

Both Wen and Wu turned their heads to look at Li Yunchong.

Li Yunchong did not hesitate anymore and said: "The king and the Meng Yuan people are hostile, and they are at odds with each other. They are like water and fire. To attack the Meng Yuan city is to massacre the city."

"There are no Mongolian prisoners left on the battlefield."

"I think this is a mixed bag of good and bad."

"The good thing is that it can strengthen the determination of both the government and the public to fight the Mongolian people to the end."

"But the disadvantage is that apart from battlefield tactics, other strategies are not easy to use. For example, alienation, inducement of surrender, and war. The Mongolian people know that there will be a dead end after defeat, and they will persist in the war that should have been abandoned."

"The art of war. Encircle three and one is missing. The besieged city must be given a way out, and the defenders will be shaken."

After finishing speaking, Li Yunchong hugged Wu Nian and bowed his head deeply.

Although Wu Nian just said that he could speak freely and be forgiven, he knew that he had touched a bottom line.

The Mongolian, Yuan and Han dynasties were at odds with each other.

But since he became Wu Nian's general, he had to do his best. In his opinion, Wu Nian's actions of killing prisoners and massacring the city and genocide were very irrational.

This drives everyone to a dead end.

Turned all the Mongolian people into poor bandits.

Poor bandits are not easy to deal with.

It is better to treat the prisoners preferentially and leave a way for the enemy to survive.

In this way, the means of war can be varied.

The smile on Wu Nian's face disappeared, and so did the smiles on the faces of the Han civil and military people present. Everyone else took a breath and looked at Li Yunchong.

This General Li is so brave.
