After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 270 Meeting in Huai City
Obviously, Sun Wu immediately thought of the application of these crossbows, so Meng Di said.

"These crossbows were intended to be equipped with cavalry at the beginning, so they are relatively lightweight and are still being improved. If they are finalized in the future, they can be large or small, and then they can form a crossbow array."

"At that time, once they confront each other on the battlefield, after a shower of arrows, they will definitely be able to deal a serious blow to the enemy. If there are enough people, they will be able to guarantee continuous attacks on the enemy."

"As long as the opponent's morale is low, it is likely that they will collapse instantly under the blow of the arrow rain. At that time, we will cooperate with cavalry and infantry to fight together. At least in today's world, no army from any vassal state can compete with our Han army."

Sun Wu nodded after listening, then lowered his head and thought for a while, then said.

"The infantry under the Marquis of Han are selected extremely strictly and well-equipped. This is to resist the impact of cavalry and chariots. If this is the case, then they can be demoted to another group of infantry."

"When fighting, they can wear light armor and crossbows, and they can move quickly when marching and fighting. Only in this way can they achieve unexpected effects on the battlefield, and when they are on the ground, they also have the power to resist."

"So we need to train now, and we can install it in the future. However, archers still need to be trained in case of emergencies. Then this infantry needs to be proficient in bows and horses. No matter whether they cooperate with cavalry or infantry, they will not have it." question."

Meng Di felt that what Sun Wu said was very reasonable, so he immediately agreed.

"In this case, after Sun Wuzi arrives in Feiyi, he can start to build such an infantry. If there is any need, he can directly discuss it with Mr. Bai. I will tell Mr. Bai to support you with all my strength."

After receiving the order, Ji Ran also rushed to Huaicheng. This time, Meng Di, Ji Ran, Sun Wu, and Bai Gui began to discuss the next arrangement. As Ji Ran who had been coordinating the overall situation, he naturally did his part and spoke first.

"If you want to attack the State of Song, you must go all out and use the shortest time to win this battle. At that time, you can divide your troops into two groups and send Yang Hu from Tancheng to attack Pengcheng directly. Wait until the Lord's army arrives. after."

"Yanghu will attack Xiao County immediately, and my lord will lead the army to attack Shangqiu, but in order to reduce our pressure, let Lu and Zheng send troops first, so that Song's troops will be exhausted. , so as to have unexpected effects.”

"In addition, we need to organize a special team. Recently, there have been many Song people who have fled to Han. We can let them speak out and tell the people of Song about the benefits of Han, and escort a large amount of food with them. , to save the people of Song State."

"As long as we can win the hearts and minds of the people of the Song Kingdom, it will be easier to govern in the future, and it will even attract more people from other vassal states to join us."

After he finished speaking, Bai Gui nodded, and then added.

"In addition, you can immediately recruit soldiers after taking Pengcheng and Xiao County. The number does not need to be too large, and the conditions for recruiting soldiers cannot be lowered. The most important thing is to let the people of Song Dynasty see the benefits. After all, the effect of word of mouth is not too obvious. .”

"After all, ordinary people are profit-seeking. Only when they see the real benefits will they be convinced. At the same time, there are many workshops around Huaicheng, so they can also send people to go there. Recruit people."

"Since the area around Pengcheng and Xiao County will fall under our control in the future, we will implement our Han policy from the very beginning, and Song is quite rich. Under such circumstances, we will win over some of the Song officials. support."

"After all, the State of Song regards itself as orthodox. I am afraid that they will maintain a hostile attitude towards the State of Han at that time. This must be guarded against. My opinion is to be gentle with it, and at the same time use thunderous means, so that the people of Song can return to their hearts. "

Meng Di also knew very well that Song Guo was also a descendant of the Shang Dynasty, so he had a natural sense of superiority, which was unavoidable, and thus created extreme cultural confidence. Song Guo is not a good thing.

He suddenly thought of Zuo Qiuming who was opening a lecture hall in Huaicheng, so he immediately had an idea, so he said.

"When the time comes, those doctors of the Song Dynasty who are unwilling to cooperate must be full of economics, so let them move to Huaicheng, and it happens that Mr. Zuo is also giving lectures. If this is the case, then let them talk about their ideas. .”

"As long as what you say is meaningful and there are no presumptuous words, then don't pay attention to it. The more the so-called reasoning becomes clearer, there are some different voices. I think it's a good thing. Listen to it occasionally, maybe there is something else. inspired."

With Bai Gui's ability, Meng Di was quite relieved to put these people under his nose.

At this time, Sun Wu heard the two of them finished speaking, frowned and pondered for a moment, and then spoke.

"The policy of the Han State is to win the hearts of the people. Under such circumstances, it is necessary to use the hearts of the people rationally. The people of the Song State will benefit from it, and they will naturally be willing to support the Han State. Under such circumstances, you can set up country soldiers."

"Since the system of counties and counties is implemented in the Han Dynasty, each county can be used as a division to send people to garrison, and then set up township soldiers in each box. Firstly, to picket illegal, secondly, to monitor suspicious persons, and secondly, to monitor suspicious persons. In times of danger, there is power to fight."

"In this way, even if there are doctors with ulterior motives who want to cause chaos, they are powerless under such restrictions. The most important thing is to win over those slaves. These people have been oppressed for a long time."

"For those nobles who have resentment, if they can get effective protection in Han, then they will definitely follow Han Hou wholeheartedly. Using these people to control the town soldiers will have a better effect."

After hearing this, Ji Ran showed admiration on his face, stroked his beard and said with a smile.

"Sun Wuzi's law is very good. In this way, not only can a martial atmosphere be formed in the village, but also the nobles can be greatly restrained, and then restrained by the law of the Han Dynasty, two prongs."

"In this way, it only takes a few years to stabilize the Song Dynasty, and the capital of the Song Dynasty is quite prosperous, and the number of craftsmen it has is second only to Linzi. These are the people we urgently need, and we must fall in It's under our control."

After a few words, the future strategy and goals for the Song Kingdom have basically been determined.
