As for the food war in later generations, no one has ever experienced it. Naturally, with Zhang Jian's knowledge, he would not have thought of such a thing.

At this moment, he had to wonder whether Su Shi really lost his desire for hegemony after becoming king and only focused on Goryeo.

If so, Zhang Jian would certainly be happy.After all, the survival of Goryeo has no direct relationship with the Liao Kingdom, and the benefits the Liao Kingdom usually gets from it are limited. Speaking of which, this is also the reason why Goryeo is not rich.

But if Goryeo is occupied by Su Shi, the other party can always provide low-priced grain, which will be of great benefit to the Liao Kingdom.

They no longer lack food, so they can train more troops, and then direct their troops to the Song Dynasty or Mengdi and Xixia in the Central Plains.

In short, the entry of low-priced grain is definitely a good thing among good things, and he has no words to refute it.

Zhang Jian had no way to object, and the matter was placed on the shoulders of Prince Yelu Hongji, King of Qin Yelu Chongyuan, and Nanyuan Privy Councilor Xiao Hui, and they still strongly supported it.

Now they are doing business and trading with Su Shi, and they can earn a lot of profits from it in a year. If they really go to war with Su Shi, their losses will undoubtedly be huge.

Even if Su Shi lowers his head, they will certainly support Long Jun in dealing with Yin Yuhu.

Above the court, the three people became the vanguard and made it clear that they would not participate in the war between the Long Army and Yin Yuhu.

Everyone can benefit from the so-called lenient treatment of people and low-priced food, so they will naturally not object at this time.Not only that, the court also approved the purchase of more cheap grain and made adjustments to this year's spring plowing.

Since the price of purchased food is so low, then

There is no need to cultivate so much land.It would be better to liberate the labor force, let them join the army, expand the number of the army, and prepare for the next entry into the Central Plains.

It is a good idea and plan to borrow the low-priced food provided by Su Shi to arm and strengthen ourselves, and then deal with the Song Dynasty.

No one in the civil and military circles of the Manchu Dynasty disagreed, including Zhang Jian, who also thought this was an opportunity.

At least the Liao Kingdom's army has increased. Even if it is not an enemy of the Song Dynasty and Xixia, it has more capital to frighten Su Shi and lays a better foundation for obtaining more food in the future.

Low-priced grain, as a kind of food war, has not yet shown its power.But there is one benefit first, that is, when Su Shi takes care of Yin Yuhu, the Liao Kingdom will definitely stand aside and watch. This is a gain.

Time has come to early March, the land is civilized, and spring plowing begins and ends one after another.

In Xijing, Goryeo, Yin Yuhu finally did the right thing. He led the army to help the people grow food.

Don't think that this is a sign of family ties between the military and civilians.The reason why Yin Yuhu did this was just to free more people under his rule and let them help him transport military supplies so that he could have better capital to fight Su Shi.

One is the newly self-proclaimed Dragon King, and the other is the newly self-proclaimed King of Xijing. The battle between the two kings is about to begin.

For this battle, Yin Yuhu invested a lot of energy. It seemed that he wanted to win in one battle and establish an advantage. He mobilized a full 12 troops and 20 civilians. He was known to the outside world as a 40-strong army. Starting from the distance determination They gathered in Ningyuan City, the nearest city.

The total number of troops under Yin Yuhu's command is 15

That’s all.Only 3 people were left in this battle in order to have sufficient numerical advantage on the battlefield.

He had already inquired about it, and found out that the regular army under Longtian King's command was less than [-] people, and the rest were auxiliary troops, that is, local troops.How is that different from a civilian husband? He is full of confidence in this battle.

For this battle, Yin Yuhu also asked people to inquire about the thoughts of Goryeo and Liao.

It was clear that neither of the two parties had any intention of participating, which made Yin Yuhu even more confident. He believed that after he destroyed the Dragon King, his territory would expand and his population would increase. At that time, his strength would naturally will be enhanced.

The only pity is that although this Dragon King is very young, he is very calm.He originally thought that after he carried out the assassination, he would go crazy and attack him, so that he could take advantage of the danger of the Datong River to defend himself.

Su Shi was so calm, but in the end he lost his composure and had to consider taking the initiative to attack.

As soon as Yin Yuhu moved here, news came from Long Yin, and the six cities under Su Shi's rule began to mobilize.

When it comes to the unity of the army and the people, no force can do better than Su Shi, and no army is as loved by the people as the Long Army.

Just because wherever Long Jun appears, it will bring countless benefits to the people, there is no reason why they should not be recognized by the people.

Knowing that there was finally going to be a war, Long Jun was naturally excited, as this represented the emergence of countless military exploits.Compared with the [-] peasant soldiers, [-] peasant soldiers and [-] auxiliary soldiers, the Dragon Army soldiers were far less excited than them.

This means that the opportunity to join the regular soldiers has come. These three

Thousands of Goryeo people were all very excited, wishing they could go up to the battlefield and fight the Xijing army now.

Ordinary people were also very excited. It was precisely because of the beginning of the war that another wave of recruitment for peasants and soldiers came. As long as there were men of suitable age in the family, there was no one who did not sign up.

Even some people are weak at heart, greedy for life and afraid of death.But if you dare not sign up, the gossips in your neighborhood will drown you and let you know that people's words are terrible and that rumors can kill people.

The registration craze for peasant soldiers is approaching, and there are long queues at the recruitment gates everywhere. It can be said that they are overcrowded.

However, very few people were actually recruited. Su Shi only deployed an additional [-] peasants and soldiers under his rule, and then stopped recruiting.

Originally, Su Shi took the route of elite troops. What did he need so many troops for?

Even the additional [-] peasants and soldiers were used to serve as civilian laborers and transport military supplies.

Although Su Shi has a system that can place all kinds of items he needs anywhere within [-] kilometers around him, but after the territory expands, Su Shi cannot guarantee that he can move around and drop off luggage at any time.

With [-] new auxiliary soldiers, military equipment can be better allocated to ensure that no army participating in the war will have any logistical problems.

Su Shi would not allow the people under his rule to die in battle too much. This represented a lack of faith, which was the most fatal to him.

The men are all going to the front line to fight, and more women, old people and children are left behind in the governance. Under the leadership of Fu Bi, they still live in an orderly manner, even if they are building roads and houses.

Without the slightest delay.

The benefits of Su Shi selling low-priced grain to the Liao Kingdom were also reflected.Otherwise, I am afraid that at this time, Zhang Jian and others will propose to let the Liao army attack Su Shi from both sides. This will undoubtedly be difficult for Su Shi, who has only a small number of troops.

It's fine now. It's just a matter of dealing with the King of Xijing. Su Shi and the Dragon Army under his rule are full of confidence.

The so-called 40-strong army is just a false name.

The real army is only 12.

And among these 12 people, less than half are truly capable of fighting and can be called elites.

Although there are still [-] figures in this calculation, it is not comparable to the Dragon Army with only a few thousand.But don't forget that Su Shi has the advantage of timely communication. For this battle, Su Shi has long been prepared.

Su Shi wanted to see how long the 12 Xijing troops could hold on under his own mobilization, and how long they could withstand several battlefields.

The King of Dragon Heaven and the King of Xijing will eventually fight, and both Liao and Goryeo will set their sights here.

For them, no matter which side wins in the end, it is not a bad thing for them.Especially the Goryeo army, while watching the battle between tigers and tigers, once they find out that the winner of the battle is decided and both sides are extremely weak, they will immediately send troops to find opportunities that are beneficial to them to regain their territory.

In view of the fact that there were people watching from the sidelines, Su Shi formulated a strategy for a quick victory when he convened a meeting with the generals of the army.

In Su Shi's words, if you want to fight, you must kill him with one blow, and resolve the battle before other enemies who want to take advantage have fully reacted.Only in this way can we stand firm

lost ground.

Once they get entangled, it will give the Goryeo Army an opportunity. At that time, the Long Army will probably face a situation where they are attacked from both sides, which is what Su Shi does not want to see.

Naturally, the Dragon Army was absolutely obedient to Su Shi. After receiving the order, all the regiment leaders swore that as long as Su Shi's big hand pointed, they would be invincible and invincible.

During the New Year period, three Dragon Cavalry Legions and three People's Legions, a total of six regiments, all took turns training at the teaching corps of the Black Cavalry Reinforcement Camp. Compared with before, their combat power was at least doubled. promote.

It is no exaggeration to say that there are only 6000 people in these six regiments.Even if you face ten times more enemies alone, you won't have the slightest fear. On the contrary, there is a high possibility of winning the war.

There are elite soldiers like this, which is one of Su Shi's confidence.After he gave the order, each regiment began to mobilize according to the military plan drawn up by Fang Jiugui and Ji Zhu.

The advantages of developed transportation began to show. As long as it was within Su Shi's territory, the speed of mobilization of various armies was beyond the imagination of people of this era.

The first ones to set off were the First Regiment of the Dragoon Army and the First Regiment of the People's Army, which had already received the mission.

Under the leadership of their commanders Feng Yidao and Mu Huan, the two elite regiments plus 3000 peasant soldiers and [-] auxiliary peasant soldiers, a total of [-] people, disappeared in the night.They took fifty hovercrafts and headed southwest from Xianzhou City.

This is a secret marching force. They not only have to avoid the reconnaissance of the Xijing King's scouts, but also avoid being discovered by the Goryeo Army's scouts.

About this

Point, when training before, there was targeted training.With the help of the reconnaissance battalion, it's not a big problem.
