Sometimes mentality is very important, Lu Zhe thought carefully after listening to Kuaitong talk about the worst outcome, and it seemed that the situation was like that.

In the three counties of Nanjun, Hengshan County, and Cangwujun, the head of Qiantou has nothing to be dissatisfied with Lu Zhe's rule, although Lu Zhe's rise is only a matter of two years, but no matter how Lu Zhe clears the war and restores peace, he has the grace of life for quite a few people, what reason do they have not to feel love for Lu Zhe?

More importantly, Lu Zhe has improved the law, removed a lot of evil laws that cause people to be disabled, and many people usually rely on some of Lu Zhe's work to have income to support their families, and have improved the method of forced labor, which is not something in other places, what else can the leaders be dissatisfied with?

Today's people are still quite simple, the goodwill of the ruler will basically not be regarded as a wolf's heart, what is emphasized is that others will respect a foot and return a foot, the so-called kindness must be revenged, if Lu Zhe really needs to shout for help, some are guys who go up and work hard.

Kuaitong was obviously very aware of the popular support that Lu Zhe had won under his rule, so he was so sure that he could hold on to at least three counties, not Jiujiang County, Changsha County, and Lujiang County, including the newly occupied Minnan County and Nanhai County, which could also be preserved. To tell the truth, how many drops of water Lu Zhe scattered out in Nanjun, Hengshan County, and Cangwu County, how big the spring gushed out was, depending on the universal law of "the grace of dripping water, the spring reciprocates".

Guessing that the situation would become quite bad, Lu Zhe naturally had to be fully prepared, he no longer had the luxury of expecting that this trip to the alliance would be unfazed, and he was already well prepared to withstand the stormy seas.

Some administrative orders were quickly written by Lu Zhe, and in addition to personally explaining to Xiao He, who was in the camp, and writing down the orders in writing, some documents to be sent to the counties were also written. In terms of military preparations, there will not be too many directives for the standing army, and what is needed is a set of wartime mobilization that is in line with reality, and the most direct thing is to extend the service period of the quarterly soldiers in each county and county. At the same time, at the same time, all counties and counties are ready to concentrate the quarterly soldiers in Nanling at any time, or receive equipment, or replenish food, and wait for orders to participate in the war anytime and anywhere.

Xiao He originally wanted to say that this would have an extremely bad impact on the development of internal affairs, but he pondered it carefully, and it seemed that the order issued by Lu Zhe would not cause too strict turmoil in the society, it was nothing more than to speed up the manufacturing of weapons and other equipment, so that all localities could concentrate the scattered grain and straw in Nanling within a certain period of time, and it was not unheard of before the extension of the quarterly army and the preparation for war. The difference is that this time it is not a drill, it is really possible to fight.

Regarding the rectification of Yuecheng, Lu Zhe was already doing before he set off to go to Huimeng, and this round of instructions was that the old Yuecheng was still rushing to produce military equipment, and the construction of the new Yuecheng had also begun, and the difference between before and after was to stop and not to stop.

It is not a big deal to concentrate grain and straw in Nanling, Nanling, as the center of Lu Zhe's side, has always been a concentration of resources in the territory, and this time it is just to mobilize grain and grass from the granaries that are usually hoarded in various places.

Figuring out what those orders were about, Xiao He had a new feeling. He felt that the administrative system run by Lu Zhe was really novel, as if he had already made all the preparations for war that should be done in peacetime, and when the war really broke out, from the administrative order, it seemed that there was a little bit of a rumor and a soldier. But the impact on the people is really not much.

This administrative system is very similar to the Qin State, but fundamentally it is different, Xiao He is also in power, and he has his own views after seeing more and participating more.

Xiao He probably heard Lu Zhe talk about the "wartime system". That is to say, without everyone knowing, they are doing their own things with one administration after another, one ring after another, and they are already operating in normal times. After receiving the order, the whole system can be quickly operated. Because they are already doing it, they don't need to be in a hurry after the order is issued, so it seems that the officials have become busier, not the kind of busy work that usually does nothing and waits for things to come.

There are not enough talents, and the plan prepared by Lu Zhe is not very complicated to put it bluntly, that is, to establish scattered warehouses, and when paying taxes, the local government will pay as much as they want, and the warehouses near a certain theater of operations will receive orders from the center to provide grain to the nearest army during a local war. This is meant to reduce the waste of transportation costs, and of course to transport the grain left behind in normal times to the central government when necessary.

Kuaitong put forward several more constructions, the first is that the quarterly soldiers of Nanjun are concentrated in Nanling, the quarterly soldiers of Cangwu County and Hengshan County are moving to Lujiang County, and the quarterly soldiers of Jiujiang County are moving closer to Shouchun (Zhifu); The second is the quarterly soldiers from Cangwu County and Hengshan County, and the quarterly soldiers of the two counties can properly pose an offensive posture with the local garrison and quarterly soldiers of Lujiang County; The third is to include the Northern Army, the Eastern Army, and the standing army, auxiliaries, and quarterly troops that were transferred from Nanling, and the positions do not need to be hidden and listed in a dignified manner.

"Including the standing army, garrison, quarterly soldiers, and even the Tuntian soldiers when necessary, we will use a total of 1.4 million troops to put them in the light," Kuaitong raised his hand and clenched it into a fist: "Look which of them dares to ignore our anger." ”

Intimidation tactics? Put on the strongest battle, make the most ferocious posture, and clearly tell the nations that Lu Zhe is not afraid of a big war, so that those who want to make trouble will not dare to act rashly?

However, in this way, except for the 200,000 troops in the south who were fighting the Lingnan Campaign, almost all of Lu Zhe's troops were on the northern and eastern fronts, and the defense of the Qin State formed a vacuum!

Kuaitong only "tsk" twice in the face of someone raising such a question, as if he didn't want to answer the question of IQ so much.

"The Qin State will wage war against the nations, and in the current situation that the Qin State is facing, it will not fight with us alone." Lu Zhe is a king, Kuaitong can disdain to answer, he wants to make it clear.

In order to form the situation that Kuaitong needs, Lu Zhe naturally can't continue to march towards Shen, he needs to stop and let the rear move, at least wait for the quarterly troops to complete the dispatch, forming a preliminary situation before it is suitable to continue to move to Shen.

There is one thing that Lu Zhe must figure out, that is, how much food will be consumed by such a big movement, and how long can the previous food hoarding last after the real outbreak of the war.

"One million and four hundred thousand, and the supply of 200,000 troops from the southern legion......" Xiao He's face was more worried: "It can probably last for five months." ”

Five months? Lu Zhe asked again: "Is the autumn harvest counted, or is it just the current grain hoarding?" ”

If it is necessary to include the grain after this year's autumn harvest, Xiao He is not only worried, but should be crying with a sad face.

"Then if the autumn harvest is included, how long can it maintain the grain of 500,000 to 600,000 troops?" Even if he really fights, Lu Zhe can't really arm more than a million people to fight hard at one time, that is an act of destroying himself, how can he leave the necessary substitute soldiers, and at the same time, the internal affairs labor force that should be there can never be exhausted.

Xiao He breathed a sigh of relief, except for the Qin State, which had maintained the cultivation and warfare system for two or three hundred years, who in the world today could support the supply of grain and grass for a million-strong army for three or four years? He replied: "If 600,000 yuan is counted, including this year's autumn harvest, it is conservatively estimated that it can be supplied for two years." ”

Lu Zhe also breathed a sigh of relief, the role of maintaining that tuntian army was revealed, if there was no such tuntian army constantly opening up farmland, and the output of the new extreme increase in a very short period of time, which force that had only risen for two years would dare to raise hundreds of thousands of troops?

In fact, it is not nothing, there is no armed base area in history, and their subordinates are tens of millions at every turn, but they are all like locusts to fight and eat, and they will continue to plague the next place when they are empty.

The food is guaranteed, and the military equipment will not be cut off if Nanjun does not fall, and Lu Zhe, who is sure of these two points, is confident enough, he discussed it with everyone, and sent envoys to the countries according to the attitude that should be there.

Sending people to the nations is not to say "good brothers", but simply to go and ask them with a vicious attitude.

It's just an alliance, and it means that bringing a hundred thousand troops to protect the king means that the Qi country wants to send 400,000 troops!

What does it mean that Yan Kingdom, a country far away in Liaodong, sent 130,000 Yan troops south across thousands of miles, is it here to cause trouble!?

Chu? The state of Chu that dispatched an army of 100,000 was not much this time, and Lu Zhe even "kindly" asked people to inform the kings and ministers of the state of Chu that hundreds of thousands of countries had come to hulala, and only 100,000 in the state of Chu was far from enough to protect the king and important ministers, so he should bring a little more.

On the Zhao side, Lu Zhe sent someone to ask if he had brought enough grain and grass for the 300,000 army, and if not, Lu Zhe could sell a little, but the priority was to pay for it with war horses.

For the first time, Lu Zhe also took a very tough attitude towards Meng Yi's side, telling Meng Yi that he could only take 10,000 Qin troops to the meeting place, otherwise Lu Zhe would send troops to help Meng Yi "passively" reduce his troops.

After sending envoys to all parties, Lu Zhe still stayed in thought, he issued so many orders, how could he be completely busy.

Many of the people sent by Lu Zhe arrived at the parties, and the reactions of the nations were also different, but one thing was the same, all of them stopped and continued to march cautiously towards the meeting place.

Si period is less than ten miles away from Jiujiang County, and there is a section of the route arranged by Lu Zhe for the Chu army to pass through here, and when the envoy sent by Lu Zhe arrives at the Chu camp, the Chu army is exactly fifty miles away from Lu Zhe's 250,000 army.

At this time, the Qin army was about thirty miles south of Ruyin in Chen County, about thirty miles away from Shen, Qi Yan was about forty miles away from Shen, north of Xia Cai, and Zhao's army was still not moving on the side of Teng County...... (To be continued......)
