In Meiyang, the newly appointed chariot general Zhang led 100,000 horses and horses from all counties to garrison here, and the rebel camp was opposite.

Dong Zhuo was named the general of the captive. But Dong Zhuo was not happy at all.

"Congratulations General." Li Wei smiled and entered the tent to congratulate Dong Zhuo.

"What's so gratifying. The court was not good. Dong Zhuo said worriedly. As a broken general, his soldiers and horses can be expanded to 15,000 people, but the problem is that the military rations given by the imperial court are extremely small. Some time ago, their military rations were already insufficient. But these times, after the expansion of personnel, their personnel food is even more insufficient. There is no food, the army's morale is unstable, and there is no talk of war.

"The food given by the imperial court is too small. I'm worried about the instability of the military. Dong Zhuo said helplessly. Military rations, of course, were reduced. Zhang Rang intercepted half of the grain originally allocated to them and exchanged a large amount of arms, personnel, and related equipment. Because their Emperor Majesty allowed it. Moreover. Agree with them to make such a change.

"This." Li Wei didn't expect that there would be such a thing, because the attack of the rebels had already shocked the imperial court. So. A large amount of war resources are tilted here.

But by doing so, His Majesty the Emperor transferred a large amount of war resources away. This is for the counterinsurgency army. But it's extremely disadvantageous.

"Alas. In this way, it is strange that there is no major incident. Dong Zhuo scolded. What else could he do without food.

Eldest son. Division Headquarters of the 3rd Infantry Division. Ma Heng moved the headquarters here. In order to facilitate the command. Gather a lot of intel to solve something like this. So. A lot of things can be solved.

"The chief is right. All we thought about at first was the big war. Tens of thousands of people surrounded each other. Eat them in one go, but forget. How we fought before. A lot of things are actively developing for us until our tactics mature. Like what. We've worked out a few things and so on. Ma Heng looked at the telegram from the headquarters and said.

"Sir, isn't it less to annihilate the strength of one battalion of the enemy?" A staff officer said worriedly.

"Not a lot. Is there still less strength in a battalion? In such a situation, there are not many problems that we can solve. This situation is extremely beneficial to us. We should see the vantage point of such a situation. Ma Heng said.

"The commander made it very clear in the telegram that we were going to prolong the attack. In this way, we will have more opportunities for relaxation, and the probability of victory in the battle will be very high. In such a situation, there is naturally a lot that we can do. So, in such a situation, it is actually very beneficial for us, we are not in a hurry, and come at our own pace. Don't look at the strength of a battalion of five hundred people at a time. But if you do this every time, add the time, and you will eat up a lot of enemy forces at once. When the conditions are ripe for our decisive battle. If we had a decisive battle with the enemy, how would we be doing? Ma Heng asked the staff officers.

"That's right. Sir, in this way, we will be able to build up our own cavalry units by capturing them, and they can participate in the battle, and although the scale of the battle is small, our troops have been greatly trained. Such an opportunity is very rare. Our cavalry can also be built up quickly. A lieutenant colonel staff officer said.

"That's right, that's what the chief thinks. And the troops can't be too anxious, this war, you have to have your own rhythm, tune, if the Huns follow our rhythm to fight, we can do any situation. Ma Heng said.

"Sir, how are we going to fight?" One of the majors thought for a moment and asked.

"Although some places are not yet mature, I can let the commander put an infantry regiment and an infantry regiment into a certain area to form a brigade. Let them cooperate with each other to enter the combat area. A regiment, a battalion, such a battle, quite rich. Ma Heng said.

"Sir, I agree." The staff officer said.

"Just agree. This is a good solution that the chief has come up with, and we must find a way to solve this kind of thing. Make the situation even more favorable. In this way, we can become more advantageous. Ma Heng said.

Some of Shangwu's ideas greatly reduced the psychological burden of the front-line troops, and the infantry regiment after the burden was reduced. It can exert greater combat capabilities.

"Send a report to the sir." Ma Heng knew that Shang Wu thought more comprehensively. Therefore, for the above combat intentions, he must find a way to know something.

Lijiazhuang. Arsenal.

Today's arsenals began to have more equipment, such as hot rolling mills, although they were steam engine power, but at least they had their own hot rolling mills. That's a good thing for them.

In addition to this, Shangwu built an old-fashioned hydraulic press, which was mainly used for die-casting some artillery parts. Shang Wu is also actively improving the technology of artillery barrels, such as: The method of winding with iron wire. Such a solution was still thought up by the old craftsmen. That's what he does. It's very advantageous, because the artillery is more close, and they can do a lot of things like this.

"I've finally found you." Jia Xu was out of breath at this time to find Shang Wu and said.

"What's wrong?" Shangwu asked.

"The matter of the steel mill, and other things, telegrams came one by one. Up to one's neck in something. Jia Xu said. When there is no telegram, I am very anxious. But when there are telegrams, telegrams come one by one. That's very busy.

"It's not called a steel factory, it can only be called an iron factory. How about Handan Iron Works? Shang Wu asked.

"Yes, the iron works are under construction at a rapid pace. They have been separated from the arsenal. And not only that, but they also issued shares. There are many, many people who buy newly listed stocks, and the financial aspect has been solved to a certain extent. Plus technical support. The problem is not huge. Jia Xu said. With that, he handed over a telegram. This was sent by Wang Ming. The iron factory was separated from the arsenal, which greatly relieved the production pressure of the arsenal. At the same time, some demand for iron was expanded.

The ironworks were originally part of the arsenal, but by separating the ironworks, they were able to greatly increase their output. Meet some of the needs of other areas, like that. The iron works can solve most of the problems. And that's just the beginning. On top of that, the iron mill can be further upgraded, they can become a steel mill, and many things can be solved from this.

"The next telegram was from Ma Yokobe. And they said, They understand what you mean. They don't put too much emphasis on annihilating the enemy too much at first. Jia Xu said.

"Hmm. In this way, they will be able to reduce some of the psychological burden. They can get things done, too. Shang Wu said.

"Hmm. That's the way it is, most of the things can be solved. Ma Hengbu proposed a specific combat method, and they planned to invest two infantry regiments to annihilate the enemy's battalion of troops, so that the results would be greater. Once we are familiar with the enemy's way of fighting, they will be able to solve most of the problems. Jia Xu continued.

"I agree to do so. After all, there are still many things that we are not familiar with the way the Huns fight, and the difference in terrain can also make the situation different. So, we can't solve this kind of thing very well. Shang Wu said.

"How is Xu Dou? Montenegrin thieves, did they agree to accept the imperial court's edict? We must get troops out of the north as soon as possible. In this way, the problem of insufficient combat strength in the Hedong region can be solved to a large extent. Shang Wu said.

"The situation over there has not yet been telegraphed, but what I know is that Julu and Zhu Jun have already sent personnel to contact them, and I think it won't be long before they will change such a situation. However, I think that the 4th and 2nd Infantry Divisions, we don't need to move, we just need to move the independent brigades. Jia Xu thought for a while and said.

"Mobilize them?" Shangwu asked.

"Yes, it is possible to move them south, strengthen the defenses, and then transfer the 1st Infantry Division, the 2nd. The 4th Infantry Division can start from Zhending, attack and state direction. Jia Xu said.

"Oh." Shang Wu nodded. This is the same idea of Shang Wu from the beginning.

"That's all right." Shang Wu nodded.

"Well, in this way, our affairs have been solved quite a bit." Jia Xu said. Leaving the 4th Infantry Division in place will not only deter the Montenegrin bandits, but most importantly, they will be able to enter the annex from the other direction. This was carried out by Jia Xu according to Shangwu's strategic assumption.

"Hmm. But I think we still have to wait for some situations, so that other things can be solved, and we can do better things like this. Shang Wu said.

"I know, you want us to be dispatched when the Huns attack and annex the state, so that a lot of things can solve such problems, right?" Jia Xu asked.

"Yes. Only in this way can everything be solved. Shang Wu nodded. They can only wait. Because only by waiting, can everything be solved.

Bingzhou is a very important area, and the border warfare of Shangwu has reached there. But if you want to solve such things, you have to wait for the situation to change, and only then can many things change.

"There will be a lot of changes in the situation, and we have to wait quietly, patiently, and only then can we be in the best interest." Jia Xu said.
