Since everyone is extremely agreeable, then Wanhua naturally does not procrastinate, I saw Wanhua wave his hand, that is, he said: "Okay, since this is the case, then we will take Yan'an Mansion!" ”

Wanhua's words can be said to be the final word, and it also set the tone for the development direction of the defense team in the future.

Of course, before that, Wanhua still has to finish the hand and tail after the war, the meritorious players will be rewarded, and the dead soldiers will be buried, and these Wanhua will not dare to be sloppy!

After Shirong, Guozhen, Wang Er and other officers left, only Wanhua and Tangshan were left in the big tent.

At this time, Tang Shan couldn't help but say: "Leader, today our defense team killed 321 people and wounded 86 people, plus the losses in the battle of Suide Majiadian, our defense team has suffered as many as 634 casualties!"

With such a large loss of combat power, I am afraid that if I want to occupy the entire Yan'an Mansion for a while and exercise effective control over all parts of Yan'an Mansion, I am afraid that the troops will be insufficient!

Therefore, the students thought that we should expand the recruitment of soldiers again! ”

When Wanhua heard this, he naturally nodded in agreement, no one can occupy this territory, if there are not enough manpower, they can't develop all over the place, and they can't provide combat power for the defense team, so what's the use of occupying it!

Now don't look at the security team, excluding the dead and wounded, there are nearly 6,400 people, but when these more than 6,000 people are released to 16 counties, where can they still see people!

If something happens to you temporarily, and you don't even have enough soldiers and horses for emergencies, wouldn't it be a setback!

Thinking of this, Wanhua can be regarded as having experienced the difficulties of the Ming Dynasty, hey, there are great difficulties, it is really true!

Wanhua pondered for a while, that is, said: "In Mr.'s opinion, how many soldiers and horses should we recruit this time?" ”

Tang Shan naturally had already made up his mind, so he replied: "The students think that when we recruit another 10,000 troops in Mizhi and Qingjian, in this way, we can make our defense team not overstretched!" ”

Wanhua couldn't help but think for a while, if he recruited 10,000 troops in one fell swoop, and then filled up the vacated positions of those dead and wounded players, then there would be 17,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, so that he would really become a real prince-like existence!

couldn't help but feel hot in Wanhua's heart!

However, after the excitement, many questions were also put on the table, and Wan Hua said: "The number of 10,000 people is enough, which is enough for our security team to form a controlling position in various parts of Yan'an and lay a solid foundation for the vigorous development of various places."

However, these 10,000 horses have not been trained, disciplined, and have no combat power, this is a trouble, and if this is not solved well, things will backfire! ”

Yes, this suddenly recruited 10,000 horses, so many people, it would be nothing in normal times, but now that the time is urgent, they will immediately start to take over the territory of the counties of Yan'an Prefecture, and these people will also follow to garrison.

These people are pure recruits, they don't understand anything, if they are put in the place, they cause something, it will not be to discredit the guards!

In addition, their combat strength is not talked about for a while, if there is a local counterattack by the big clans, once they are defeated, the bad impact will undoubtedly be very huge!

One of the very important reasons for this is that the security team has won many battles, so that the people and local clans respect and fear the security team.

If there is a mess somewhere, and the security team cannot be pacified in time, but instead gets a fiasco, then those landlords and squires who have confiscated their property, wealthy families, they will have to think about it, and this thought together may start to move!

This situation can't be guarded against!

No matter how many troops there are, if there is no solid foundation, it will be a flower in the mirror, a moon in the water, you can see it, you can't touch it!

Just like Li Zicheng in history, his soldiers and horses were known as a million troops in his heyday, but he fought a battle with the Tartars in a stone, although he was defeated, but he didn't die much.

But just this defeat, Li Zicheng couldn't be beaten over, and he was beaten back to his original form, and it didn't take long for him to say goodbye to the historical stage completely!

This bloody lesson, Wanhua can't turn a blind eye!

Tang Shan listened to Wanhua's words, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought, yes, 10,000 soldiers and horses who have not undergone any training, if something happens, it is not a trivial matter!

After pondering for a while, Wan Hua said: "Sir, I think we should think about the problem in a different way, that is, we can't solve the future with the current experience!" ”

When Tang Shan heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised, Wanhua's words were the first time Tang Shan had heard of them, and Tang Shan couldn't help asking: "Dare to ask the leader what he means by this?" ”

Wan Hua smiled slightly, that is, he said: "The reason why we feel that seven thousand soldiers and horses are not enough to control the entire Yan'an Mansion is because once we go out to fight now, we always have to leave a brigade of five hundred men at home to keep them to watch over the house."

So we naturally think that there are a total of 16 counties in Yan'an Prefecture, and the number of people and horses who care for the house alone will be 8,000, plus those who can be pulled out at any time, the soldiers and horses must be at least 17,800 to be enough!

But that's not the case, and we've fallen into the trap that we don't need to have enough people everywhere! ”

As he spoke, Wan Hua stood up and walked to the map hanging on the wall of the big tent, pointing to the map, Wan Hua continued: "Sir, please see, this brilliant Ming Dynasty is so big, connecting the heavens and the earth, spanning tens of thousands of miles, but where are the soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty placed?"

Almost all of them are at the border passes, and there are two capitals and central capitals, and most of the soldiers and horses stationed in the rest of the places are guards.

It is such a kind of troop arrangement, but it has allowed the Ming Dynasty to come over for two or three hundred years, so why don't we arrange it in the same way! ”

After speaking, Wan Hua walked back to his seat, and then said: "Bing, most of the time it only plays the role of deterrence, it lets everyone know that you have soldiers in your hands, as long as he moves, the soldiers will arrive, and as soon as the soldiers arrive, he will kill his head, just this role, he doesn't need to see soldiers all the time, he just needs to know that soldiers exist, so that's it!" ”

When Wanhua said this, how could Tangshan not understand what Wanhua meant.
