Three Kingdoms: I Have Unlimited Gifts

How to do?

The Prime Minister of the Southern Song Dynasty was also worried.

It is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

But now that the emperor has asked, he, the prime minister, must answer.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there are only two options now, one is to cut down the army in front, the army in front is less, and the materials needed will naturally be less.

The Prime Minister said.

"No, it is absolutely impossible to reduce the army! The big Han only used 200,000 to 300,000 troops to destroy the one million army of the Jin Dynasty. Now the front line of the Southern Song Dynasty has assembled more than one million troops, and the five million troops are worried that they are not enough. Can you cut it!

Zhao Yun immediately shook his head.

Historically, the Southern Song Dynasty did not have so many troops.

At its peak, it was about 1.5 million.

But now things are different.

In the half year 987 of the Han Dynasty's demise of the Jin Dynasty, the Southern Song Dynasty had time to start desperately recruiting troops. Who made the military strength displayed by the Dahan so terrifying?

"What about the second way?"

Zhao Yun asked.

"The second way is also very simple, that is to let the war break out as soon as possible."

Although the Prime Minister didn't say the second half of the sentence, Zhao Yun also understood.

Fighting is killing people.

Doesn't rations decrease when people die?

"But now the army is under-trained, and most of them are recruits. How did they get on the battlefield?"

Zhao Yun said worriedly.

"Your Majesty, if you don't start the war now, then you won't have to wait until the spring of next year, I'm afraid it won't take three months, and the land of the Southern Song Dynasty will be covered with smoke, and the people will be rebelling everywhere. 35

"Furthermore, our army has an advantage in numbers, and Meng Gong, the commander-in-chief of the front line and the middle route army, is a once-in-a-century fodder. We are not without a chance to win. Once we win, our army will invade the land of the Han Kingdom, and the army will be able to support the war by fighting, which will greatly alleviate the situation. Rear shipping pressure..."

"And no matter how much the soldiers practice, they can't compare to one battle. Even if we can't win, after the battle, the five million army can still leave two or three million veterans with strong combat power. This will be very important for future combat. It's also very beneficial..."

The prime minister persuaded.

"Meng Gong, commander-in-chief of the Central Route Army, commander-in-chief of the West Route Army, and Commander-in-Chief of the East Route Army... orders them to immediately attack the Great Han Kingdom, there must be no mistake!"

After a while, Zhao Yun finally made up his mind.

He didn't want to be overthrown by the rebellious people before the battle ahead.

a time.

The front-line generals all received the imperial edict of Zhao Yun.

"Active attack? What are you kidding? This is for soldiers to die! 35

Meng Gong was stunned when he heard this.

But soon he also wanted to understand the truth.

But he was a general who commanded the army, and he couldn't do it by letting him watch these untrained soldiers go to death.

"I will be exempted from military orders abroad!"

Meng Gong gritted his teeth.

However....

"General, this is His Majesty's eighteenth imperial decree. If I don't send troops again, I'm afraid..."

In the council hall, the generals of the Southern Song Dynasty looked at the eighteenth imperial decree with bitter expressions on their faces.

It is still vivid in my mind that Yue Fei was recalled by twelve gold medals.

It is undeniable that Yue Fei's refusal to obey the previous emperor's eleven gold medal recalls also intensified the emperor's suspicion.

The situation is similar now.

You Meng Gong hold an army of more than 1.4 million, almost one-third of the army of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Now you don't listen to the emperor's decree, what do you mean? Do you want to support your troops, or do you want to rebel?
