Chapter 312: Grain
Weng Ming, a famous doctor in Youzhou, hurriedly knocked in with a medicine box. He was a regular guest of the Zhang family and Zhang Zhongwu's best friend. He didn't have to avoid anything. He went straight into Zhang Zhongwu's study. After entering the door to see the ceremony, he was not polite and stripped Fei Zhong's clothes and re-checked Fei Zhong's injuries.
Zhang Zhongwu took advantage of this loophole and walked to the wall, staring at the huge map on the wall, and Zhang Zhongwen also stood beside him.
"Gao Pian's physical condition is not good. It seems that we can accelerate our strategic focus from Hedong to Wuwei." Zhang Zhongwen said: "At this moment, the Hedong army will inevitably be unstable. Even if we know that we withdraw our troops, I am afraid they can do nothing."
"Brother is right. If Gao Pian is safe, he will naturally have no doubt about his control over his command. But now that his physical problems are in trouble, it is hard to say the arrogant soldiers and generals under him. Especially now that Li Ze has become the chief general of the Northland marching. Nominally, he has become their chief. It is not easy to convince these people to be a Huangkou son like Li Ze. "
"But Gao Pian is not dead yet. What if we withdraw our troops on a large scale, what if Gao Pian orders to pursue?" Zhang Zhongwen asked.
"The pursuit will definitely be pursued." Zhang Zhongwu said lightly: "But with the current situation, it is not certain whether those generals will do their best. With the disobedience of the Yin and Yang, the space we can operate is even greater. Maybe we withdraw our troops, and the generals of the Hedong army will breathe a sigh of relief. Strategic vision is not something that everyone can have. Some people only focus on their own one-third of the land."
Zhang Zhongwen nodded.
"We want to increase troops to Yingzhou on a large scale and fight several major battles in Yingzhou, so that Li Ze mistakenly thinks that our next focus will be on recapturing Yingzhou." Zhang Zhongwu pointed to Yingzhou and said, "Let Deng Jingwen lead his troops to support Shijiabao to ensure that we are not lost, the largest stronghold in Yingzhou, and at the same time, we must wait for an opportunity to launch a counterattack."
"Liu Chenglin is a powerful general, not counting the soldiers of Yingzhou Prefecture. There are 5,000 soldiers under his command. This is the elite force drawn by Li Ze from his troops. In addition to the thousands of Rangers led by Li De, it is afraid that Deng Jingwen's troops in Mozhou alone will be difficult to fight."
"In addition to Deng Jingwen's Mozhou troops, 10,000 Khitan cavalry were recruited as auxiliary troops." Zhang Zhongwu said, "In this way, we have an absolute advantage in both infantry and cavalry."
Fei Zhong, who was on the other hand, interrupted: "Jie Zheng, you must be very cautious in the use of Khitan cavalry. The Yeluqi incident set a very bad precedent for the Khitan tribes. The reason why Li Ze treated Yeluqi's troops well was to point directly at the Khitan tribes."
Hearing Fei Zhong's words, Zhang Zhongwen smiled and said, "General Fei was too worried. After the Yeluqi incident, Ji Shuai was also reflecting on his strategy for the Khitans. Although it is not easy to change the course, the treatment for the Khitan tribes who are willing to fight for Lu Long has been improved."
"Oh? Is it the past few months?" Fei Zhongsi gasped in a cold air, looked down at some of Weng Ming's actions on the wound under his ribs, and then said, "I wonder what regulations does Jieshuai have?"
"First, there is a heavy reward." Zhang Zhongwen said: "After taking over Daizhou, the general of Jieshi rewarded the Khitan cavalry who made great contributions to the interweaving battles. Of course, this is just a temporary measure. The most important thing is that Lu Long cuts the Khitans' taxes, and the troops who sent troops to fight will also provide military funds and food. Now, Li Ze wants to dig our corners, but it is not that easy."
Fei Zhong nodded and praised: "This is a long-term way. But we must still be careful of the Khitans, especially not letting a certain person appear among them. If such a person appears, they must immediately extinguish him. Let them fight each other and control each other, and they have to rely on us."
"These strategies were originally planned by Gongsun Changming back then, so of course they would continue to implement them persistently, but they would slightly improve their treatment so that these Khitan tribes could live a better life. More importantly, now the Uighurs are gradually rising and have become the enemy of the Khitans. The Khitans have no other way out except to take us as their backers." Zhang Zhongwen said with a smile.
"But in this way, we will be under great pressure on the economy." Staring at Weng Ming's remedy and bandage, Fei Zhong said worriedly: "Deng Jingwen took the lead in launching a war in Yingzhou, and the logistics pressure will probably be great. The large army was transferred from Hedong to Wuwei, which was also a huge expense."
"This year, Goryeo is very familiar." Zhang Zhongwen said with a smile.
Fei Zhong was shocked: "You should not open the second battlefield at this time."
"It's necessary to fight there!" Zhang Zhongwen smiled: "Jie Shuai sent Yelu Yuan to Yingzhou, and at the same time, he asked Yingzhou Governor Wang Xiu to send an envoy to the King of Goryeo to ask them for food and grass."
Fei Zhong suddenly realized: "Although Yelu Yuan performed poorly against Wude, he asked him to go to Yingzhou to threaten the Koreans. He is a good candidate. So, we have already succeeded?"
"Of course, the King of Goryeo promised to offer us a million burses of food and grass. Of course, we will not force him to jump over the wall. Apart from this million burses, we will use military armor to exchange for the rest. The King of Goryeo is not having a good life now. The powerful minister of the country is aggressive. The King of Goryeo is eager to strengthen his strength and compete with Tan Daoji. He even told Wang Xiu's envoy that as long as we send troops to help him pacify Tan Daoji, he is willing to offer us a million burses of food every year."
"This is a good business, but now we don't have a large number of troops to go to Goryeo. If we really want to fight that place, we need to do our best. It's a muddy water. It's really hard for us to get into it now. But it's okay to send some soldiers and officers to help train the army."
Zhang Zhongwen smiled and said, "The heroes' views are similar. This is how I ordered Wang Xiu. Not only that, he also sent someone to warn Tan Daoji to let him know a little, otherwise the heavenly army would be destroyed as soon as he arrived."
"Then Tan Daoji must be timid, but in fact he will speed up the rebellion."
"If that's not the case, how can we get continuous benefits from the Korean people? Only by making the King of Goryeo anxious can we squeeze more benefits. As for his life or death, who cares? Even if Tan Daoji kills him, will Tan Daoji not cooperate with us in the end?"
"That's the reason!" Both of them laughed loudly. When they laughed to the point of laughter, they touched the wound. Fei Zhong couldn't help but breathe a little cold again.
Weng Ming, who was packing the medicine box, said angrily: "General Fei, your wound itself is nothing big. It's just that after being injured, you are still running around for a long time, which makes the wound unable to heal for a long time. Now it's a lot of trouble. What you need to do now is to have a good rest and avoid being overjoyed. This way, the wound can heal as soon as possible."
"Thank you, Mr. Weng, I remember it. After I got home, I lay on the bed and stopped moving until the wound healed?" Fei Zhong bowed and smiled.
"The genius believes you!" Weng Ming smiled and shook his head: "Change the medicine every three days. As for the medicine you take on internal medicine, our prescription has been prescribed. General Fei also knows medicine, so he will go back to prepare his own. Jieshuai, General Fei has nothing to do. The important thing is to have a good rest. I will say goodbye now."
"It's Mr. Lao Weng." Zhang Zhongwudao.
"Mr. Weng, please stay!" Fei Zhong reached out and grabbed Weng Ming and said, "I have something to discuss with Mr. Weng."
"What else does General Fei have?"
Fei Zhong pondered for a moment and said, "Mr. Weng, you are a famous doctor in Youzhou, so there is no point in saying anything about medical skills. But no matter how high Mr. Weng's medical skills are, he only has one person and two hands. And with your disciples, he has limited manpower after all. I wonder if Mr. Weng knows Jinyuan in Zhenzhou?"
Weng Ming nodded.
"With Li Ze's support, this person opened a school in Zhenzhou to teach medical skills. His disciples now only stay in the school for one day every ten days, and also teach apprentices at the school at other times. As far as I know, in one year, about one hundred disciples have graduated from this school."
Weng Ming said disdainfully: "What good disciples can be taught like this? Needless to say, they are all quack doctors who harm people!"
"Mr. Weng, that's not what these people learn in a year. However, I still understand ordinary diseases. My people have also investigated. The focus of this school professor is on how to treat trauma."
Weng Ming was stunned, and after a moment he suddenly realized: "These people were sent to the army."
Fei Zhong nodded. "Not only that, Zhenzhou will edit all the prescriptions for any disease and any prescriptions to be used. The editor-in-chief is also Dr. Jin, and all the doctors under Li Ze have given their own prescriptions. These books are all written by those who have completed their studies in the clinic."
Hearing this, Weng Ming's face changed slightly.
Every doctor has his own specialty. If you print out these prescriptions, wouldn’t you throw away the guy you eat?
"I need to think about this matter!" He hesitated.
Fei Zhong smiled and said, "It's okay for the second thing. I also want to ask Dr. Weng to lead the way. We will also open such a clinic to teach some quick-acting doctors to the army. This will greatly reduce the casualties of our soldiers. I wonder if Mr. Weng may be."
Weng Ming was relieved to hear that he didn't have to offer his own exclusive secret skills. It doesn't matter if he only taught some trauma to treat some trauma, it's just a little harder.
