Chapter 728 The First Battle of the Southern Expedition

There is no shortage of examples in the history of Zhongzhou where the weak defeated the strong and the small defeated the large. But if future generations think about it carefully, let’s explore their thoughts.

Are they really willing to fight more with less?

Who is willing to use 80,000 to fight 200,000?

Who is willing to pay 500 to 100,000?

It's just that there is no other way.

If you can directly crush the enemy with your troops, then you will be willing to fight with fewer troops than the enemy!

The Shenwu Guards rested in Dongting County for ten days, maintaining daily training while waiting for other troops to arrive.

Yang Yuan took this opportunity to inspect the work of Dongting County officials.

Dongting County was one of the last counties seized by the Qian Kingdom, even later than Chengan County.

After all, Cheng'an County was further north than Dongting County before, and that was the core of the battle between Qian and Shun.

On the Dongting County side, only local soldiers and horses who were still militia at the time faced off against the Shun army.

Both sides were very restrained. Dongting County was not the main battlefield, and not many troops were invested.

Everyone is messing around, and whoever moves first is more likely to reveal flaws.

At that time, the main force of the militia was in the hands of Zhao Long. The generals of the militia in Dongting County wanted to make meritorious deeds, but unfortunately they had no chance.

There are not many soldiers and horses in hand. They cannot be considered elite. They can only be said to be qualified. They do not have an overwhelming advantage when facing the Shun army.

Although Shunguo has many problems, its soldiers are still very powerful.

The most critical thing is that the militia generals have too little food and grass supplies to support a fierce battle.

At that time, the state of Qian was fighting a decisive battle with the state of Shun in Cheng'an County, while occupying the northern counties.

There are too many places to consume food and grass. If Yang Yuan in Cheng'an County had not secretly taken out the food from his pocket as a supplement, how could the Divine Guards have the capital to confront the Shun Army for so long!

Why did Yang Yuan have to take action to win this southern expedition?

It's not that he has great commanding ability, nor that he has the power to defeat tens of thousands of enemies.

Instead, he has an endless supply of food, armor, and even soldiers and horses in his hands.

This is the reason why Yang Yuan is indispensable!

Half of the officials in Dongting County were officials and students of Shun State.

After the war, those loyal to Shun Guo had already fled to the south.

Those who stay in this county are those who do not want to leave their homes and have other ideas in mind.

The Divine Guards also urgently needed a group of management talents to help them manage the counties.

The speed of cultivating talents through political schools and other methods could not keep up with the expansion of the territory of the Divine Guards.

Now the Qian Kingdom has been established and gradually stabilized.

The imperial court center also formulated many policies that benefited the country and the people.

There should also be some changes in Dongting County.

Yang Yuan used the opportunity of gathering troops to inspect Dongting County, just to see whether the officials in the county were vigorously promoting the court's policies and whether they were corrupt and perverting the law.

Moreover, he also wanted to see whether the court's policies were suitable for the local conditions and whether they had been deformed.

The implementation of the New Deal was still short, and the imperial court did not send anyone to conduct intensive inspections.

Moreover, many of the policies in the New Deal have been implemented in Cangyang County and the other three northeastern counties. Many ministers believe that as long as they manage the administration of officials, they don't need to worry about other things.

Since ancient times, 70% or even 80% of the failures of the New Deal have been blamed on local officials.

They distorted and distorted the policies of the New Deal, either for their own benefit or because of political differences.

The people are actually not interested in the new or old policies. They will support whichever policy can make their lives better.

New policies are often well publicized, but then begin to change after one or two or even six months after they are implemented. As a result, people's lives are even harder than before.

Can this new policy still be said to be good governance?

Yang Yuan understands very well the principle of adapting measures to local conditions. Even if the new policy is implemented well in Cangyang County, it may not be applicable to other counties.

In addition to different people, the environment is also important.

The environment between Dongting County and Cangyang County is very different.

Cangyang County is more mountainous, while Dongting County is more watery.

Thirty percent of Dongting County's area is water, and the remaining 70% and the remaining 30% are mountains and low hills.

There is relatively less cultivated land, fewer farmers, and more fishermen.

Cangyang County's new policy has many benefits for farmers, but there are no specific provisions for fishermen.

According to Yang Yuan's thinking, agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, and fishery should all be considered a class. What the New Deal should guarantee is their most basic interests, and then the interests of more and more common people.

But there are still big differences between the four in Zhongzhou, especially in the eyes of the government.

Among the four, only farmers are relatively important, and the rest are not very important.

Some local officials even believe that too much of the latter three will affect the governance of the county. Not only do they not support it, but they also suppress it.

Compared with farmers with land, fishermen, hunters and herdsmen are more likely to go to extremes, or have a greater chance of becoming helpers.

In addition, the New Deal does not clearly recognize that fishermen must be the same as farmers, so there are still some problems in the implementation of the New Deal in Dongting County.

Don’t be afraid if there is a problem, just solve it.

But Yang Yuan doesn't have time to solve Dongting County's problems personally now.

He recorded the problems he had observed in the past few days in detail on a piece of paper and prepared to hand it to Liu Qi, the governor of Dongting County.

This is an old subordinate of Yang Yuan and his follower.

When Yang Yuan was chatting with Liu Qi in the tavern, he discovered that he had great experience in managing a place.

He seemed to be an official in his own world, but Liu Qi was very taboo about his situation in the original world and did not want to mention it more, and Yang Yuan did not ask further questions.

However, his ZZ talent is indeed very good, and he once served as chief officer in Cangyang County and Chicang County.

Recently, Liu Qi was transferred by Yang Yuan to the newly occupied Dongting County as the county governor.

Overall, Liu Qi did a pretty good job, and Liu Qi cannot be entirely blamed for the problems with the New Deal.

Liu Qi immediately set out from Chicang County after receiving his order to become the governor of Dongting County. Shortly after arriving in Dongting County, he received a secret order from Yang Yuan to prepare for the southern expedition.

Liu Qi is a follower of Yang Yuan, and Yang Yuan will not hide this kind of thing from him.

Yang Yuan must march south. Wouldn't it be better to give Liu Qi an order in advance so that he can prepare early?

Although Yang Yuan can provide all the supplies for the army's expedition, preparing supplies is very tiring.

A large part of Liu Qi's energy was involved in the Southern Expedition, and it was inevitable that there would be some oversights in Dongting County's government affairs.

You can't ask one person to do two big things at the same time!

The Southern Expedition and the government affairs of a county are all complicated and require full concentration. Trying to do two major things well will only result in not doing one well.

Yang Yuan handed over the results of his inspection to Liu Qi, "You can put the matter of the southern expedition aside for now and take more care of the government affairs of Dongting County.

Those people under you are going to heaven when they see that you have no time to take care of them! "

Of course, this is a bit exaggerated, but God is not so bad, and there are quite a few people who have their tails raised.

Yang Yuan's arrival freed Liu Qi and allowed him to do his job well.

Liu Qi said: It is my job to fulfill the king’s orders!

When Yang Yuan inspected Dongting County, he ordered the Shenwu Guards to train in Dongting County.

But are the Shenwu Guard generals people who can live in peace and quiet?

Your Majesty won't let us all enter Shunguo's territory, why don't we go to the head office less often?

How can we not send scouts in advance to gather information during a war?
