"It's just that this Penglai is not the other Penglai!" Wang Lun changed his tone, "The Penglai you are talking about refers to the first county of Dengzhou. Everyone here knows this. But my Penglai County is the first county in "Liezi" Penglai is recorded in "Tang Wen Pian": "There are five mountains in the east of the Bohai Sea. One is Daiyu, the other is Yuanqiao, the third is Fanghu, the fourth is Yingzhou, and the fifth is Penglai." This is what it is talking about. Penglai. This island, formerly known as Kyushu, is located on the sea southeast of the Koryo Peninsula. It covers a vast area, almost equal to the combined area of ??our three major states, Jingdongdeng, Lai, and Mi. Now the northern part of the island has been included in the Yangshanbo Andong Protectorate. territory, but the southern part of the island is still in the midst of a fierce battle with Japanese pirates.¡±
After listening to Wang Lun¡¯s explanation, the new leaders present all had their mouths wide open. What is the concept of the combined land of Deng, Lai and Mizhou? It firmly occupies half of Jingdong East Road! In this way, it is equivalent to saying that the land half the size of Jingdong East Road has firmly become the rear area of ??Liangshan, and will never be threatened by foreign enemies.
And Liang Shanbo successfully extended his power to the Japanese islands. The benefits are not only limited to this, but also have very important significance. That is, even if Liang Shanbo fails in the competition with the Central Plains in the future, he can still retreat overseas and become wealthy and self-sufficient. If you advance, you can become a hegemon, if you retreat, you can become a prince. It's a perfect situation of sitting back and watching one!
But then again, who would have thought before that that Liangshan was not only filming in Jingdong and the Song Dynasty, but was also engaged in another national war to conquer the Japanese country? It is said that a cunning rabbit has three burrows. Liang Shanbo is simply more surprising than a rabbit. Wang Lun is really capable of surprising people!
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The new leader, who originally held the "teaching and learning" seal and was a little bit dissatisfied, suddenly had more thoughts in his mind. No wonder Liang Shanbo kept recruiting surrenders and rebels along the way, as if he wanted to pack up all the people in Jingdong and take them away. Feelings are a newly conquered place that needs people to cultivate! And when more fields are cultivated, it is natural to set up a government to collect taxes. To establish an official government, you must at least have officials. When it comes to being an official, who is more skilled than them?
Even the least positive people are interested. One can imagine the attitude of others. At this time, the leaders' enthusiasm for the new Penglai County suddenly increased, and now it was not just the new leaders who were making noises. Even many old leaders of the field army were also very excited, because everyone was temporarily transferred to the Jingdong battlefield, and all their energy was occupied by heavy affairs. They did not know much about the Japanese war in which the Korean soldiers played the leading role. Therefore, the new and old leaders unanimously requested Wang Lun to introduce the war in Japan.
Wang Lun was originally planning to break up the meeting, but when he saw that no one had any intention of eating, they all became interested and secretly thought that it would be a good idea to speak out to cheer everyone up. Immediately he cleared his throat. Let¡¯s talk about the war in Japan.
Opening up new territories has always been the interest of warriors, and many of Wang Lun's views that transcended the times are quite attractive. The leaders sat down and listened very seriously. Wang Lun continued to talk casually for half an hour. When he stopped to drink tea, the leaders came back to their senses.
It didn¡¯t matter that they came to their senses this time, the sound of discussion almost burst the ceiling.
"In a place that's a little bigger, 100,000 Korean soldiers were dispatched. Isn't this group of people fighting too sparsely?! They have only managed to make half of it now, and half of the island is still in the hands of the Japanese pirates. Here! Mr. Xu is so lucky to be able to go to the front and teach these people how to fight!"
Although Xu Jing became the focus of the tent, he always smiled and said nothing. Although he also had unlimited expectations in his heart to go into battle. But this time he was going to defend the rear and protect food routes, which meant that he did not receive a front-line combat mission. Xu Jing has lived for such a long time, so he can naturally understand Wang Lun's love for the copycat armed forces. To fight a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye, it is better to leave it to the intolerant Koreans. In this kind of thing, there is really no one who can do it better than them at the moment.
Xu Jing can sit firmly on Diaoyutai, but Xue Tianxing and Wen Qin can no longer wait. After all, they were the closest to Penglai County among the generals, but they were just a little short of being able to follow Xu Jing and take office. At this moment, the two of them were seen hanging their heads. Xianggu sighed and said, "Don't ever end up in the situation where you can't catch up with one step or every step!"
"So. The role played by the navy this time is really irreplaceable?!" When it came to logistical support, many leaders who had almost ignored the navy gradually began to change their views.
"No. I thought that this Japanese country rarely saw foreign enemies landing on the island, and the country must be extremely rich. These guys are like stones in a cesspit, smelly and hard, and they also like to have sex! The war led to this It seems that the enemy's plan for food was completely in vain, and more than 90% of the supplies still had to be transported across the sea from Korea (Jeju Island). Fortunately, the village had taken precautions and purchased a lot of food and grass from Hunjun in advance, otherwise it would have been captured. No matter how much gold or silver you have, you can't use it to fill your stomach!" Zhu Wu sighed and continued:
"at presentTo resettle the people, the requirement for food and grass is not a simple amount. However, the final battle in Penglai County, as well as the future wars in Fanghu County and Yingzhou County, will definitely not be ended in a short time. Alas, it would be great if we could fight the big war two years later! By then our immigrant life will be stable, and our self-produced food will be able to grow on a large scale, which will definitely greatly alleviate the food shortage situation faced by the village! "
When everyone heard this, they had personal experience. They didn¡¯t know about other places in Liangshanbo, but they still knew a little bit about how much food was consumed in Shamenzhai every day! According to their private estimates, if the three to four million stones of grain that everyone had worked so hard to move to the island from the Jingdong states were used at the current consumption level, they would be able to eat every last drop of rice in just three months. Maybe in less than two months, Liangshan will not only transport fresh water from Lichengjiang River from Goryeo, but also food will account for the majority. This shows how great the logistical pressure Liangshan faces!
As Zhu Wu just said, although this huge crowd of immigrants will definitely turn into a solid cornerstone to ensure the development of Liangshanbo in the near future, the question is, do you have to be able to survive until the "future" first? If everyone starves to death along the way, what solid foundation is there for us?
At this moment, everyone was silent, including the rebel leaders who most expected the Liangshan army to fight back. They also lowered their heads. Although the group of surrendering generals just now were afraid of death, there was some truth in what they said. This time if Liangshan returns to Jingdong, we can no longer expect to seize much food from the state capitals!
"Lord! What Commander Zhu said makes sense. There is a war going on over there in Japan. Shouldn't we delay the war to regain Jingdong for two years? At least it won't be too late to wait until the folks we recruited can pay taxes before fighting! "The main war faction took the initiative to soften its position under the constraints of objective conditions. "How about we concentrate our efforts to open up the Beiqing River channel and rescue Xu Junshi and others who are trapped in Liangshan Po?"
Wang Lunjian said, he looked at Zhu Wu and said solemnly: "It's not that Guanzhong failed to withdraw in time, but it was like a wedge that took the initiative to nail the heart of the Song Dynasty. And the great war I am talking about The battle is not to fight the Hunjun in Jingdong and fight to the death, but to withdraw the main force from Shamenzhai and march to Lelang County to drive the Jurchen barbarians who are approaching Cao County (Pyongyang) from the Yalu River!"
