Chapter 323 Inventory and Goals

Moving is just Ren Ning's private matter, so it's not appropriate to talk about it in this battle meeting.

Everyone asked a few words casually, and then changed the topic back.

"General," a military adviser looked at the south-central part of Baekje with scorching eyes, "Your Majesty's body..."

cough!
Knowing that he had made a slip of the tongue, he hastily coughed to cover up.

"Prince Qi is the most ambitious and extremely ambitious among all the princes, and seems to be the most suitable for our army's style. My subordinates suggest..."

It is recommended to send troops there as soon as possible to ensure his safety and reputation.

Wei Junqian was noncommittal, and his eyes fell on Ren Ning.

"Ren Ning, you have been in Yumu for a while, tell me what you think. It doesn't matter if you make a mistake."

Ren Ning did not refuse.

He went to the map.

"Your Majesty's decree has been issued. We can delay for a while on the grounds of necessary rest, but sooner or later we will have to go to Baekje."

The crowd nodded.

"But how many people will come out, that's up to us to decide."

Everyone in the hall laughed.

"We now have [-] troops, plus Uncle Zhongyong's [-], that's almost [-]."

Speaking of this, Ren Ning looked at Wei Junqian, "General, will Beihai Customs send troops with us?"

Wei Junqian pondered.

"Huang Shitao also received an order from the Ministry of War to send troops. But the order emphasized that they should give priority to guarding the border. Therefore, from the general's point of view, he probably won't move."

"Of course, if we play smoothly, it is estimated that he will send someone to pick up some bargains."

"This bastard..." Everyone shook their heads.

Ren Ning pressed his hand, and his eyes fell on the three counties in the north.

"The restructuring of the imperial county captain has just been completed. Now the three northern counties are unified and guarded by our old friend Mo Canghai, the former captain of Canglan County."

"General, if there is a need, will he respond to us?"

Wei Junqian nodded affirmatively, "Mo Canghai is a good general, and the empire only let him be a mere county lieutenant, which is really overkill."

"He stayed on Canglan Island for a while, and the soldiers he trained are good at both land warfare and water warfare. If we need it, he will go east with his lieutenants to fight."

Of course, the premise is that nothing happened in the three northern counties.

"In the past few days, I will pay a good visit to the county princes who moved here to settle down." Wei Junqian's mouth turned cold, "If they take care of their old age, they will still be nobles. Otherwise..."

The people in the hall should drink tea, drink tea, and those who should read the map continue to look at the map. No one has any objections.

When they went south to Guangxin, Ren Ninglei and Xiao Gang were attacked in Baihua County.

When Guan Luping arrived, he killed one round, and when Wei Junqian arrived, he killed another round...

Now the four counties in the south are so peaceful, everyone including Huangzhuang is well-behaved.

Ren Ning continued to take stock.

"Our Xingluo currently has 6 troops, and we can adjust them later if necessary. Uncle Zhongyong's Pingwa army is almost 13, Mo Canghai's is [-], and there are more than [-] sailors. Huang Shitao may send some troops. This is the present in the north. The total strength of the army is more than [-]."

"The Japanese pirates are constantly coming from the mainland, and the number should be much larger than that of us and Baekje combined."

Having said that, he paused.

"We have few people, but we are all professional soldiers. Most of them have received strict training. There are many Japanese pirates, but most of them are civilians who have just picked up weapons or have been training for a few days. It can be said that each has advantages and disadvantages."

"As for food and grass logistics, both sides are far away from the mainland. Baekje has basically no food to eat after so many years of drought. So it's not the same. We even have a slight advantage."

"Finally, weapons and equipment. Although the north-south post road in Misty County has not been repaired yet, our weapons, armor, war horses, etc. are generally better than Japanese pirates. It is estimated that only the navy's warships are enough for them to eat a pot of."

"In this way, we have the upper hand in terms of data on the surface. But..."

But war is not a math problem, and it doesn't mean whoever is bigger will win in the end.

Since ancient times, there have been many battles where the small fight the many and the weak defeat the strong.

People in the conference hall glanced at each other.

They have all fought battles for most of their lives, so they are naturally aware of this.

Wei Junqian smiled, "Then Ren Ning, in what ways do you think we should increase our chances of victory?"

Seeing that the others had no intention of objecting, Ren Ning could only continue talking.

"First, there is no way for the Japanese pirates to retreat. For them, whether it is the emperor behind or the soldiers on the front line, they can only move forward, no matter how many people die."

"But we are not necessarily. If the battle situation is not going well or even occasionally repeated. It is very likely that Star City will order us to withdraw to the mainland..."

Wei Junqian's face darkened, "I have already arranged for this matter. It's just not to send troops. Once you send troops, feel free to fight boldly. Don't worry too much about the gains and losses of a city or a place in the battle report."

"Yes!" Everyone including Ren Ning nodded quickly.

"Secondly, weapons are weapons, and wars are ultimately fought by people, or the will of frontline soldiers."

"The Japanese pirates have nowhere to retreat. Their will to fight will undoubtedly be very strong. It can be said that they will see death as their home. If we want to win, we must first tell every soldier why this battle is fought!"

On Guangxin's side, Nanfeng has been causing trouble for several years, so there is no need to say anything. ,

It's different here.

"Is it to save the brothers of the Japanese army or save the entire Baekje Dynasty or defend the country? These must be clearly explained to the soldiers."

The generals in the conference hall looked at each other, and couldn't help showing embarrassment.

If it is to save the Japanese army, then there is no need to expand the battlefield to the entire Baekje Peninsula.

If it is to save the Baekje Dynasty, why save this distant and strange dynasty?

Wei Junqian came out to set the tone, "This time we send troops, the first is to rescue the brothers of the Japanese army; second, the situation of the Japanese pirates and Xiliang is roughly the same, there is no way to retreat. Let's practice with them."

"Everyone, go back and think about your words."

"This..." A group of generals looked at each other, their heads getting bigger.

Guan Luping's eyes fell directly on Ren Ning.

"Ren Ning, no matter what you say, you were born in the Grand Master's Mansion. There are four big characters 'Master of the Empire' written on the screen wall at the main entrance."

"We are all big soldiers and can't write any articles. I will leave such troublesome things to you."

The eyes of the others lit up and they nodded one after another.

"That's right, since you kid brought it up, why not write an article about why we fight."

Ren Ning wiped his sweat.

When I was writing the victory report in the south, I didn't see you pushing back and forth.

And Guan Luping was born as a martial arts champion. In addition to being high in martial arts, he must also be able to write good articles...

But no matter how he refused, everyone still pushed him, and finally had no choice but to agree.

"Ren Ning," Wei Junqian signaled everyone to be quiet, "Any other ideas?"

Ren Ning nodded, "The third is logistics."

"If Xingji City is determined to fight to the end, then our rear is relatively stable. The Japanese pirates can be said to have no rear, so they will be more anxious. When they go ashore, they are either eager to plant food or rush to grab food. We can help in this regard. Do something."

Guan Luping smiled, "In a word, we destroy the land they plant. We set up an ambush when they rob the village. Right?"
