Portable Space Can be Summoned

After obtaining Du Ming's consent, Cao Meng quickly left the border and returned to Chen County, the original headquarters of the Qinglong Army.

Of course, he did not forget to ask Yang Yuan for instructions, and Yang Yuan also agreed to Cao Meng's request and allowed him to return to Chen County.

Yang Yuan had his own reasons for not letting the Qinglong Army return to Chen County from the beginning, because the domestic food was not abundant enough, and the Qinglong Army would not get much supplies after returning to Chen County. It would be better to stay in Cangyang County, where there would be With Yang Yuan's support, there is still no problem with the logistics supply at the Cangyang County border.

When the food supply slows down next year, the Qinglong Army will be able to regain its strength as quickly as possible.

But now Cao Meng obviously couldn't wait any longer and wanted to return to Chen County immediately. Yang Yuan did not force them to stay.

If you want to go back, go back. Anyway, you have to go back sooner or later. If you go back sooner, you can rebuild the Qinglong Army sooner.

There are more and more troops in the Qian Kingdom, but the Sixiang Army is still the most important local army.

Yang Yuan definitely didn't want to see the Qinglong Army sink because of too many casualties in a battle. The Qinglong Army would continue to become one of the most powerful local armies in the Qian Kingdom.

It's just that Cao Meng, who has returned to Chen County now, doesn't get much support. There is no shortage of soldiers and armor, but there may be a little less food and grass, but there is still no problem in supplying 20,000 to 30,000 people.

However, this food is enough for the Qinglong Army to recruit 10,000 new soldiers and complete their training.

Of course, higher-intensity training is impossible. The consumption of a high-intensity training is no less than that of a battle. The consumption of high-intensity training is about two to three times that of normal training.

Moreover, high-intensity training is prone to casualties, and the consumption of injured soldiers will be even greater. At least the nutrition of the injured soldiers must be ensured.

The first thing Cao Meng worried about after returning to Chen County with the Qinglong Army was to find supplies for the Qinglong Army, especially food and meat.

It is difficult to raise strong soldiers by relying only on grains, and there is not enough time.

So meat, eggs, milk and salt.

"General, the food shipped to us by the imperial court is only enough for 20,000 people. Now it's a bit anxious to recruit 30,000 people. We don't have enough food to eat!"

Of course Cao Meng knew that there was not enough food to eat. "If you don't have enough food, you have to recruit enough. If you don't have enough food, you have to find ways to find more food. You should wait step by step for the food and grass allocated by the court to recruit troops. When will you be able to regain your peak strength?"

Cao Meng knew the situation in the country very well. If he wanted to rely on the court's food and grass to rebuild the Qinglong Army, he would have to wait until at least next summer. Cao Meng couldn't afford to wait, and neither could the Qinglong Army.

As long as next year's autumn harvest is over and the grain in the granary is rich, the king will definitely continue to wage war, maybe against Shun in the south or Qi in the east.

This depends on Yang Yuan's thoughts and the reactions of Qi Guo and Shun Guo.

Neither country is very friendly to Qian Guo.

It's weird to be friendly. They robbed other people's territory and killed the two countries in disgrace. They didn't unite to send troops to Qian Country because both countries maintained their dignity as hegemons.

Heshun State (Qi State) joined forces to attack Qian State?

impossible! Absolutely impossible!

Although Shun Guo was beaten to a rout by Yang Yuan, the people of Shun Guo were inherently tough. Even if they had a tooth knocked out by Yang Yuan, they would swallow it all.

Do you want the people of Shun State to take the initiative to submit to Qi State?

impossible.

Before Yang Yuan appeared, the biggest enemies of Shun State were the barbarians and Qi State. Now it is very difficult for the Shun State people to proactively reconcile with the Qi State people.

Of course, smart people understand that the best result is to unite Shunguo and Qiguo, which can at least buy Shunguo some time to recover and develop.

What Shun Guo needs most now is time. Just sorting out domestic relations will take a long time. Old Shun King has only a few breaths left.

King Luo is the most likely to succeed to the throne. The other two heirs are naturally unwilling to accept it, but they also understand that the current Shunguo cannot withstand the turmoil. If the three of them really fight, Shunguo may be gone. If they win, So what?

Fighting to be captured by the Qian people and used as trophies for exhibition?

King Luo has the strongest preserved strength, and his credit may not be the greatest, but as long as he has strong strength, his credit can be accumulated slowly.

But without strength, no amount of credit can save Shunguo now.

The actual situation in Shun State required them to lower their heads and actively seek cooperation with Qi State.

pity!

Shun Guo has not lowered their high heads yet.

There is not much time left for them.

The New Year is about to come, and after the spring plowing tomorrow, Yang Yuan should launch a tentative attack on Shun State or Qi State.

The soldiers of Qian Kingdom have always been prepared, but food is a problem.

A small-scale exploratory attack will not consume too much food, and it can also find out the preparations of the two countries. Which country has greater flaws will become the target of the Qian country.

Pick the soft persimmons and pinch them. It’s also good to save the hard bones for later enjoyment.

...

The fighting on the border between Qi and Qian gradually calmed down, and the people of Qi were unwilling but helpless.

Whether on the shore or on the Cangshui River, they were no match for Ganjun.

What can I do if I can’t beat him?

Bear with it!

Kong Jingzhong has already begun to think about his future.

His performance in Cangde County was really not exciting enough and he lost all face.

He didn't want to lose his position or be laughed at by others after returning to Linzi, so he had to find a way to reverse his image.

This is not difficult. The generals in the north should have experienced the power of Ganjun, and there should be no shortage of Ganjun content in their battle reports.

He just had to be wary of those who were already at odds with him, taking the opportunity to find trouble, fanning the flames, and adding insult to injury.

They didn't care about how powerful Ganjun was. They only saw that Kong Jingzhong suffered a complete defeat in Cangde County. Not only did he not leave the invading Ganjun behind, he also lost troops and generals, making no achievements.

Someone must be responsible for the failure of Cangde County. Is there any more suitable person than Kong Jingzhong?

In order to appease the anger of the king and the people of the country, it is worth sacrificing Kong Jingzhong.

As for the Kong family after Kong Jingzhong’s death, what conditions can be discussed!

Kong Jingzhong is not the only one in such a big Kong family, there may be other Kong family members who want to see Kong Jingzhong suffer misfortune!

Kong Jingzhong knew that the situation in Linzi was very complicated. The word "Kong" alone could not guarantee his safety. He wanted to seek help from more people.

Fortunately, his stay in the capital over the past few years has not been in vain. He has met a lot of people, some of whom are fake and some of whom are sincere.

There are friendships between gentlemen that are as light as water, and there are also entangled interests and mutual calculations.

In short, some people hope that Kong Jingzhong will die, while others hope that Kong Jingzhong will live. As long as he wins over a few more important neutral figures, he will most likely be able to pass safely this time.

If you want to win over others to speak for you, the most direct way is to let them see the benefits, either in the form of an exchange of power or money.

Money is more direct. Don’t think that because you have a high position, you can treat money like dirt. If the money you give is not valued by the other party, it only means that the money you give is not valuable enough!

Not to mention how much money the Kong family has, even Kong Jingzhong has accumulated a lot of money over the years, and it's time to use it.

Those seven or eight big silver balls have been buried underground for several years, and it’s time for them to come out and see the light of day!
