Section 194 Restrictions

Tian Hao gently stroked the curved vein on the surface of his right hand with his left hand and replied calmly: "The Pig tribe seems powerful, but in fact it is in chaos. I got the news that the Pig King is seriously ill and probably won't last long. The reason why I sent troops to attack the Kuangya Department was because the King of Madya was the eldest son of the Pig King, but many people in the Pig tribe opposed his successor to the throne. From the overall perspective, I gave me a hundred courage and did not dare to mess with the united Pig tribe. As long as they were separated, no branch would be my opponent."

This is very serious, with a hint of obvious coldness.

Zong Gu lowered his head and looked at his hand, and his index finger and thumb slowly rubbed: "There are still too many people in the Pig tribe. 300,000... Especially the headquarters of the Pig King, in addition to the capital Fangya City, there are two other sub-cities under the command of the Pig King Lichi, each with more than 30,000 people, which together exceeds 100,000."

He raised his head and his thick eyebrows frowned in the middle: "What you said makes sense. We will be sure to win if we attack any Pig tribe branch alone. But if the Pig King ordered troops from three directly affiliated cities at the same time, at least 50,000 troops could be concentrated in a short period of time... Don't forget that Pig people are natural warriors, and their women can fight more than our men."

"I won't give him such a chance." Tianhao said, pushing away the bowls and chopsticks on the dining table, picking up three cups and placing them separately, forming a word "六": "This is Fang City, and these two are Chitose City and Broken Tooth City. Separating alone, no city is our opponent, but as long as the connection between them is blocked, the chance of winning this battle is very high."

Zong Gu focused his attention at the three empty cups on the table, thinking: "I understand your idea. First solve the remaining three branches of the Pig tribe, and then deal with the direct part of the Pig King?"

Tianhao smiled: "So it is not enough to rely solely on the existing power of Panshi City and Mishui City. We must ask the clan leader to send troops."

Zong Gu was still not very relieved: "Ahao, are you sure to block the contact between these three cities?"

"As long as the Pig King is critically ill, there is no problem." Tianhao pointed to the cup representing Fangya City with his finger: "Once the capital of the Pig tribe falls into chaos, we will already win half of it."

Zong Ju's heart moved slightly: "So, have you arranged an insider in Fangya City?"

Tianhao did not directly answer: "That's right! As long as you act according to the plan and connect all links, the pig race is not our opponent."

Zong Ju looked at Tianhao and didn't speak for a long time.

This young man has thick eyebrows like himself, his eyes are bright and bright, his cheeks are as hard as rocks, and his thick lines make his nose look tall and straight. He has a sense of awesome sense of perseverance, he will never give up until he achieves his goal, but it is not unfounded arrogance, but also a kind of delicateness that wanders in it.

Such people will not be afraid of difficulties, and there are always various ways to solve problems.

Zong Ju remembered his father and the great ancestors in the legend of the Cow Tribe. They broke through all obstacles, built villages among the mountains and ridges, and then developed into cities. They conquered mountains and rivers, and nothing could stump them. In the dictionary of such people, there was only "success" or "failure" and no third choice to be in the middle.

Even if it fails, it is a kind of training for them, which means accumulating strength to start again.

What is it that you lose? As long as you have a strong will, you will win one day.

"Okay, you convinced me." Zong Ju smiled satisfied: "Now let's talk about the details, one by one. Let's talk about the troops first. Mishui City can mobilize 70,000 people, including 5,000 elite soldiers and 25,000 ordinary soldiers, which add up to three."

Although Zong Gu made a positive reply, Tianhao did not follow his words. After thinking for a few seconds, a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes: "Seventy thousand people... Zong Gu City Lord, how much food is there in Mishui City? Can you maintain such a huge army?"

"It is impossible to send troops now, and you have to wait until autumn." Zong Ju admitted: "Mishui City has opened a lot of new fields this year, and the grain harvest will be higher than last year. Two months... no, three months, when the troops are sent, I can maintain it for three months."

Tian Hao shook his head: "That's not how it is calculated. You should count the captives of the pigs. After this battle, you can get at least 50,000 civilians of the pigs."

Zong Ju raised his hand and patted his forehead gently: "Yes, yes, I forgot this."

"There are also these people who left their original territory. If there is not enough food, they will not be able to walk into Mishui City." Tianhao's expression was very serious.

Zong Ju's brows that had just stretched out frowned again.

He neglected.

Mishui City has never been able to expand, and food is the biggest constraint.

Under normal circumstances, Mishui City can ensure a year-round supply of grain.

In the dictionary of the northern barbarians, "food supply" is not the same as eating fullness. It means that the rationing system is fully implemented, calculated based on the head, and according to the grades of strong labor, women, children, and elderly people, it provides a ratio of 40% of the normal ration quota, or even lower.

Calculated by a middle-aged man’s daily rations (rice or noodles, not including meat and fat), he can only get one kilogram in the food supply state. This number is definitely not enough to eat enough, and hungry people can only find ways to do it themselves. Hunting, planting short-term mature vegetables, catching insects, or killing people.

The grain supply system will only be activated when there is extremely helplessness. Most of this happens during disasters. All ethnic groups have their own grain warehouses, and the reserved grain is never used easily. They are replaced with old grain every year to ensure that there is enough food to maintain basic survival and avoid large-scale famines. However, if you are not full, you will always feel panic and will also lead to malnutrition.

Zong Gu calculated that with the harvest in Mishui City this fall, it can indeed maintain the normal consumption of 70,000 troops within three months. However, if 50,000 pig captives are added, from this winter to next autumn, the grain supply system can only be started, and no one can eat enough.

No prisoner will obey the arrangements and obey orders in this situation. At that time, even if this battle is won, it will be meaningless to Mishui City.

Unstable people's hearts are a sign of civil unrest.

After hesitating for a moment, Zong Ju turned his gaze to Tianhao: "Do you have any good suggestions?"

Tianhao spread his hands: "There is not much food in Panshi City, but there is one advantage here, and there is fish in the sea."

Zong Guang had been to the fishing grounds east, and he couldn't help but interrupt: "Ahao, do you mean to increase the amount of fishing?"

"This is our only and best source of food supplements at present." Tianhao picked up a wine glass and slowly turned it on his fingertips, as if he was enjoying a work of art at a close distance.

Plans always change with the actual situation.

The original idea of ​​not sending troops within one year was forced to abolish the special social structure of the northern barbarians, which determined that the king had irreplaceable importance. Both the new king and the old king could play a crucial role in stabilizing the tribe. The seriously ill King of Pig was still struggling, and Tianhao was not sure that the penicillin he provided could play a great role. Although he had installed people in the palace of Fang City and controlled the princess to some extent, it was only an auxiliary, not a decisive force.

After all, the princess is a woman. The Pig tribe's thinking of favoring boys over girls is deeply rooted. She cannot maintain this advantage for a long time with her son ascending to the throne. "Persistence from behind the curtain" has always been criticized and even hated by men. The kings of Lieya, Fengya and Blackya cannot tolerate the position of the clan leader being controlled by a woman for a long time. Even if they are forced to recognize the young new king for various reasons, the Queen Mother cannot maintain a noble position. She either stays away from the core of power or dies.

No matter which of the above situation occurs, it means that all forces within the pig race have reached a reconciliation and tend to be balanced and stable.

This is definitely not good news for Panshi City.

The dying Pig King can make people have infinite associations. All the kings of the divisions think that they are the most qualified heirs. In addition, the princess is desperately trying to win over the growing strength. There are now four forces within the Pig tribe fighting for the throne. They are fighting each other and there will be no decisive voices before this life-and-death struggle determines the outcome.

The pig tribe needs time, and Panshi City also needs time.

The Crazy Teeth Department has just been swallowed, and the entire city needs to rest. At present, the number of pigs in the city far exceeds that of the cattle tribe. Judging from the population structure, it has reached an extremely dangerous edge. If there is not enough time to digest and assimilate, various contradictions will easily expand and expand in full.

Fortunately, Tianhao has a special thinking from the civilization era. The "political commissar" has never appeared in the history of the northern barbarians. They played a crucial role in the stability of the situation in Panshi City.

The more important constraint is still food.

From Panshi Village to Panshi City, the land reclamation area this year has reached an unprecedented level. Tianhao calculated that using last year's harvest as a reference standard, the grain harvested this year is enough to feed 200,000 people.

The "fostering" mentioned here refers to the true meaning of eating, rather than the concept of "maintenance" of sects.

Tens of thousands of pigs rushed into Panshi City like a tide, and the ore and peat production buried in the northern mountains reached historical highs. The scale of the pack horse team has four times, frequently traveling to and from the territory of the lion and tiger tribes, continuously transporting bags of heavy potato flour and cornmeal.

Panshi City is not short of food. The current surplus can maintain the normal needs of the whole city for three to four months. The reserves in the warehouse can meet the annual consumption of 40,000 people.

It’s not that Tianhao has considered using all his strength to suppress the situation in Fang City.

However, the news sent back from various channels is not very good.

The effect of the earth-making penicillin can only be said to be average. Rather than saying that the ancient drug that Tianhao vacated to improve the condition of the Pig King, it is better to say that the giant gene has a strong resistance to the bacteria that invade the body. But the Pig King is old and weak after all, his current situation is more like a return to the light.

The cook's influence on the princess was not as great as she imagined. She was no longer a little girl. As a king, the woman gave her rich experience in court struggles that were asymmetric with her age. In her opinion, love had long become a fairy tale, and her own safety forced her to have a strong desire for power.

What is a mere cook?

That's just a prop to relieve loneliness when you're bored.

Well, I believe you do love me very much. I racked my brains to break through the heavy obstacles and stole the palace in disguise and sneaked into the palace to get close to me. I touched my feet like Ximen Qing dealt with Pan Jinlian, and then forced a kiss... Everything that should have happened, and I felt very comfortable and satisfied, but what could this happen?

The cook is the cook, you are just one of my toys. I can meet certain requirements of the toys when I am interested, provided that these requirements are insignificant, at least they cannot interfere with my plan. I can also play a weaker lover, lying in your strong arms and returning to the role of an innocent girl, acting cute and pretending to be stupid, but that is a self-entertainment act. If you take it seriously... Haha, do you think you are the king and control the whole world?

In short, now is the best time to attack the pig race.

The enemy's difficulties are their own convenience.

This is an iron rule.

The grain reserves determine the future development level of Panshi City. However, due to various factors, the grain reserves in the city have not been increased and can only be maintained within a range that Tianhao can barely accept.

He can only implement auxiliary support from other aspects.

The most critical source of new grain is the sea to the east of the city.

Tianhao's concept of geographical logic for this world comes from the civilization era. Whether it is the map obtained from the great master Wu Peng or the satellite surveillance model obtained from the old lady, it shows that the world is still surrounded by the ocean.

With the progress of the times and civilization, the northern barbarians will eventually leave the land and conquer the blue area on the surface of this planet.

Even at the worst time, Tianhao never drew the craftsmen from the dock. They failed repeatedly in the development of Galen sailboats and accumulated rich experience.

To the east of the dock is a timber factory, where there is a large amount of boards stored.

The wooden fishing boat with the highest proficiency in the Panshi City Dock is currently about 200 tons of water discharge (full load). As long as Tianhao gives the order, enough auxiliary personnel will be added. In one month, all ships can work day and night, and at least 160 ships can be built.

"If there are enough people to help fish in the sea, I can provide enough food." Tianhao's words were full of confidence. He was very serious and carefully considered the words: "I suggest that Mishui City send troops now, divided into two parts. First, send the strongest combat soldiers and auxiliary personnel, and they can start production immediately when they arrive at Panshi City. The subsequent supplies are mainly weapons and equipment, and the speed can be slower. The total force is 70,000, and the number of people arriving at Panshi City in advance cannot be less than 50,000. Only in this way can the fish yield steadily increase and become our grain reserve for troops to be sent in late autumn and early winter."

Zong Ju thought about Tianhao's words carefully, and he couldn't help frowning: "But Ahao... my people don't know how to catch fish!"

"I can't learn it." Tian Hao waved his hand: "I will disperse the current sailors of boats and dispatch them to the newly built ships. There are currently not enough ships to allow 60,000 people to go into the sea at the same time, but the speed of shipbuilding is very fast, so they can get on the ship in batches to follow. There will be more and more ships, and the same is true for fish."
