Chapter 911 Leave Wei Yan to preside over the military(1/2)
Qin Qi did not expect that Xun You would value Wei Yan so much. On the other hand, Wei Yan was indeed excellent.
"Gongda, how many cavalry do you think Ile City needs to garrison?"
Qin Qi said.
"Lord, the area of Ile City is vast, and there are no human beings within hundreds or thousands of miles.
Once a race comes to immigrate, it will not be a small race, but basically a large tribe. If the number of garrison troops left is not enough, it will not be a deterrent.
If the lord wants the garrison to keep advancing, a certain number of soldiers and horses must be left behind. After weighing my humble position, I think it would be appropriate to consider reorganizing a cavalry division."
Xun You said.
Qin Qi nodded, confirming what Xun You said.
"Mr. Gongda, if you build a highway, where do you think it would be better to build the traffic first?"
Qin Qi said.
Xun You stood up and walked to the map.
"My lord, first solve the supply problem of the garrisoned army. The road from Yilie City to Suiye City must be built.
Let the two places be connected as soon as possible. Even if something happens, the two places can support each other as soon as possible.
After a period of development, we will consider building transportation to Kangju City, Mulu City, and Haolat City.
Let them be connected together. However, the passage from Suiye City to Loulan City and Yumen Pass must be opened as soon as possible."
Xun You said.
"Gongda, where is the appropriate place for our cavalry division stationed in Ile City to expand to the west?"
Qin Qi said.
"Lord, Aral Sea! I think that as long as the army does not cross the Aral Sea, we will all be safe.
Once we cross the Aral Sea, going west will cause conflicts with the Roman Empire, which is not in the interest of us Central Plains people."
Xun You said.
Damn it!
Aral Sea!
That’s the European region!
"My lord, I have sent out scouting horses to conduct reconnaissance on the Aral Sea and other places. That place is indeed a good place. As long as it operates well, it will become the main food-producing area in our Central Plains region."
Xun You said.
Damn it!
Is that Er Xiong’s territory?
Erxiong is a major food-producing area. No one will doubt this. The land in that area is indeed fertile and suitable for growing food crops.
"Lao Dian, go and call Chief Wei Wen. I want to listen to his opinion."
Qin Qi said.
"As you command!"
Dian Wei Dao.
"Gongda, if this plan is implemented, Xu Huang's army must advance westward and cannot stay in Kangju City. This will easily lead to conflicts with the Parthian Empire, and may even turn into a war."
Qin Qi said.
"Lord, for safety reasons, the troops under Xu Huang's tent cannot continue to advance westward for the time being to avoid friction with the Parthian Empire.
It will take some time until the traffic situation in the entire Western Region is completely improved before Xu Huang's regiment can attack."
Xun You said.
Qin Qi nodded.
This is indeed the case. We cannot move forward until the traffic is improved. Otherwise, there will really be a conflict with the Parthian Empire.
"I've met my lord!"
Wei Yan cupped his fists.
"Chang Wen, please take a seat."
Qin Qi said.
He picked up the wine bottle and poured it for Wei Yan, then pushed the wine glass onto the table.
"Thank you, lord!"
Wei Yandao.
"Chang Wen, I want you to stay and be stationed in Ile City to take charge of military affairs and cooperate with the civil servants to handle local affairs. After three years, I will definitely transfer you back to the Central Plains area to serve as the governor of one side.
."
Qin Qi said.
Very direct!
Qin Qi said it directly, giving Wei Yan time to think.
After all, Ile City is too far away from the Central Plains.
To be honest, Qin Qi was not sure what Wei Yan was thinking. If Wei Yan disagreed, Qin Qi would have to do the ideological work of Zhang Liao or Tai Shi Ci.
Qin Qi was unwilling to force it.
You must make the other party wholeheartedly willing to stay in Ile City, only then can you create greater value and be enterprising.
"My lord, please obey your lord's arrangements, resolutely guard the safety of Ile City, and annihilate the invading enemies."
Wei Yan stood up and cupped his fists.
good!
good!
"Chang Wen, tell me carefully if you have any difficulties, and we will try our best to meet your requirements."
Qin Qi said.
"My lord, as long as we solve the supply problem, I will take care of other matters."
Wei Yandao.
"Chief Wen, don't worry about this. When I leave, I will leave hundreds of thousands of stones of food here, enough to feed a reorganized cavalry division for several years.
Leave some more food and grass to settle people of various races for you, so that you can send troops, continue to advance westward, and secure a territory for me.
However, it is best for the army to stop at the Aral Sea, and not to advance further west, as it will cause panic in the Roman Empire."
Qin Qi said.
Wei Yan's eyes lit up after hearing this.
With hundreds of thousands of stones of food, it is completely enough for the cavalry division to conquer for several years and completely solve the supply problem.
"Lord, I promise to complete the mission!"
Wei Yandao.
"Chang Wen, if the soldiers want to start a family here, I will not object. However, the soldiers must abide by their own wishes and cannot engage in forced buying and selling. This is a matter of principle."
Qin Qi said.
"Lord, I understand my humble position."
Wei Yandao.
"For soldiers who want to start a family here, first, they can become professional soldiers and stay in the army for a long time.
Once converted into a professional soldier, the military allowance will increase, which is enough for the soldier to support his family and will not give him any worries.
Second, you can retire locally and stay as a local official in the field of internal affairs. When you retire, you will be given a part of the resettlement allowance.
When serving in this place in the Western Region, both soldiers and officials will receive special military stickers, so don't worry about this."
Qin Qi said.
"Thank you, lord!"
Wei Yandao.
"Chang Wen, Ile City is a bit far away from our Central Plains. When you work here, you must remember to have good relations with local officials.
Cooperate with each other and discuss and resolve any problems. If unexpected situations arise, do not be anxious.
First understand what happened and then deal with it. Don’t jump to conclusions easily, let alone blindly draw conclusions.”
Qin Qi said.
"As you command!"
