Nine Hundred and Fortieth Chapters Overall Deployment

Using Fusang's army to help them fight the war does not require high military expenditures. As long as they are given sufficient protection, they will not even need a pension if they die in battle.

Using them to fight, Zhang Yu didn't feel any guilt in his heart.

"Take it as a bad debt to the descendants of another time and space." Zhang Yu thought.

Zhang Yu has already decided to recruit one hundred thousand soldiers and horses in Fusang.

If it is useful in the future, Zhang Yu can continue to requisition, after all, there is a large population, reaching tens of millions.

I don't know the exact population, anyway, even if no one is used, Zhang Yu won't feel bad.

Moreover, the men have run out, and there are just a few more women who can distribute the daughter-in-law packages.

Zhang Yu didn't discuss these decisions with anyone, and he made the decision after thinking about it in his study.

There is no need to discuss, because there are many things that Zhang Yu can't say openly, anyway, he has the authority, so he just gives orders.

The next day, when Guo Jia came back, Zhang Yu asked Guo Jia to come into the study.

In the big study room, Zhang Yu spread out the Huaxia version of the map on the table.

Zhang Yu drew a few times on the map with a slender wooden stick and said: "The territory of China has undergone many changes now, and we have to re-plan."

"My lord, let's re-establish several key points of defense. The Jiangdong area is mainly on the edge of the Yangtze River past Danyang County in the west. Wu County, Kuaiji and other counties can deploy a small number of troops and horses, and no one can invade." Guo Jia said.

Indeed, the Jiangdong area, far away from the enemy, does not need too many troops.

Guo Jia also held a wooden stick, and then pointed to the area around Chaohu Lake and said, "The main enemy in this area is Sun Ce. We have deployed heavy troops in Hefei City and Chao County to keep Sun Ce in the south."

"Jiujiang County, where Chao County is located, and Yanzhou and Xuzhou in the north, can cooperate with Xuzhou."

Guo Jia walked a few steps, then pointed to the map and said, "Then the key and difficult point of defense lies in Xuzhou. If Xuzhou is defended, our Jiangdong will basically not be attacked."

"To defend Xuzhou, Xiapi City is a key point. If we can defend Xiapi City, we will have enough time to react and support.

It is very difficult for the enemy to penetrate into our hinterland. "

Guo Jia's strategy is to draw a half circle on the north and west sides of Jiangdong to surround the entire Jiangdong. If it is inside Jiangdong, it will not require much force.

Zhang Yu nodded approvingly and said, "That's right, each of these three places has deployed 100,000 soldiers, plus some surrounding troops, so Jiangdong can be kept safe."

Soldiers and horses should be used in the most critical places, so that they can be used effectively, and there is no need to raise so many soldiers and horses.

Guo Jia continued: "Xuzhou and Qingzhou are closely connected and can be deployed in coordination. Due to the narrow and long area, we deploy some soldiers and horses along the way. It is enough to deploy 50,000 people in each city. We can deploy four cities to block the west. Enemy, some auxiliary soldiers and horses are deployed around each city."

"As for Qingzhou, deploy 100,000 soldiers and horses in Jinan and Dongguan County, both sides can block the soldiers and horses of Jizhou and Yanzhou, and can threaten them, and then deploy a mobile soldier in Langya, ready to attack the enemy at any time, so It can guarantee the safety of the entire Qingzhou."

Calculated in this way, the fixed soldiers and horses used up 800,000 people. These are the main battle troops, and they are all deployed with the city defenders and militias. These are not counted for the time being.

As for Youzhou, Xinbeiping and Shenyang City each need to deploy 50,000 soldiers and horses.

It was originally planned to deploy 100,000 soldiers and horses, but the Huns were driven away and controlled on the northern grasslands. The enemy could not attack suddenly, and Zhang Yu had enough time to react.

To support the areas around the Mahan Peninsula, Zhang Yu did not plan to deploy the main battle army.

In this way, 900,000 troops were used, and there were 450,000 main battle troops left. Zhang Yu planned to deploy 100,000 troops in Bohai County and Fanyang County and Dai County in Youzhou.

The latter two counties are just to the north of Jizhou and can threaten the north.

In this way, Zhang Yu was left with an army of 150,000.

Naturally, this mobile army can be deployed during a war. If a war really starts, there are actually not many troops that Zhang Yu can organize.

Regardless of the direction for the time being, Zhang Yu can use at most 100,000 soldiers and horses in the garrison, two mobile soldiers and horses, one with 100,000 soldiers, and one with 150,000 soldiers.

In other words, if you want to organize more troops to attack one direction, you need to form additional soldiers and horses.

"Oh, this is the disadvantage of the long and narrow land."

Cao Cao's territory is a whole piece, and they can mobilize twice as many troops as Zhang Yu in any direction.

This is an advantage and a disadvantage.

The advantage is obvious, that is, more troops can be concentrated.

The disadvantage is relative. For example, if you are an enemy with Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu can attack Cao Cao in multiple directions.

Cao Cao can be attacked from different places from the north, south and east at the same time.

"My lord, we are mainly dealing with Cao Cao. Now all four states have contact with Cao Cao, but the only one that has contact with Sun Ce is the Poyang Lake area in Jiangdong." Guo Jia said.

"In this way, our current defense against Cao Cao is very sufficient. If Cao Cao attacks us, we can counterattack in multiple places at the same time, making other places become Cao Cao's rear."

Zhang Yu also understood that there were only two enemies left, one Sun Ce and one Cao Cao, and his defense was no problem.

But if he wants to attack, Zhang Yu finds it very difficult. If he concentrates 400,000 troops, Cao Cao can concentrate 600,000 troops. If he concentrates 500,000, Cao Cao can concentrate 800,000.

"It's a headache, is it necessary to resort to military force and recruit an army of hundreds of thousands again." Zhang Yu said.

Guo Jia shook his head silently, obviously this idea was not very good.

It is natural to recruit more soldiers and horses, but it is still too much for now.

Such a huge territory requires too many soldiers and horses.

Zhang Yu also had a headache looking at it, and then said: "Although we are good soldiers, 300,000 and 600,000 will definitely suffer. I heard that Cao Cao also formed a 100,000 tiger and leopard cavalry, and our cavalry advantage has been further weakened. .”

Zhang Yu said again: "We still need to form an army in Fusang, first organize 100,000 people, at least the military expenses will be cheap."

With an army of more than one million, hundreds of thousands of auxiliary troops are needed to defend the city. Not counting the militia, it is already a big burden.

Guo Jia said: "My lord, many of Cao Cao's troops are not elite soldiers. Although he also took the route of elite soldiers, his expansion was too fast, and many of them were surrendered. Our advantage is still obvious."

The advantages are obvious, but Zhang Yu still finds it very difficult to expand.

The problem is that Zhang Yu can't take his time now, he can't afford to be slow, if the unification is more than ten years late, maybe the Roman Empire will come.

Now that the Roman Empire has been in constant contact with the Huaxia region, they already know that there used to be a powerful empire here, and they also know that there is a very good land here. The strongest system to dominate the Three Kingdoms
