Chapter 456 New Mission

Wei Bian.

Yunzheng received the news that Beihuan's tribe and army had fully retreated.

If they wanted to capture prisoners in Beihuan now, they would have to travel far and wide.

Now, the original territory of Arutai and the entire Muma Grassland are in their possession.

The battle is over for now.

But something even more troublesome for Yun Zheng came.

They captured the territory.

The question now is how to occupy these territories permanently.

If they send a large number of troops to occupy these territories, the supply line will be stretched very long.

Even if we farm on the spot, we can't go too far. At most, we can do it around Sanbiancheng.

In addition, although the rain on the grassland is not abundant, there is also a short rainy season.

Once the rainy season arrives, there is mud everywhere and supplies will become difficult.

There may be fewer people sent, and we have to worry about being attacked by Beihuan.

But if they leave a large piece of rich land to look at, what's the point of conquering it?

Moreover, they had to build a bridge over a tributary of the White Water River.

A bridge needs to be built on the tributary close to the Arutai site, and a bridge needs to be built on the tributary close to the Muma Grassland!

Otherwise, if something happens to both sides, it will be too troublesome to provide support!

The two tributaries are not very wide, so it is relatively easy to build a bridge. You can do it first...

Yun Zheng stood on the broken city wall of Weibian, thinking constantly in his head.

"This battle is over, why are you still looking sad all day long?"

Yun Zheng was so lost in thought that he didn't notice Shen Luoyan and Miao Yin appearing behind him.

"Just because the war is over doesn't mean things are over."

Yun Zheng turned around and said, "Some things are more troublesome than fighting..."

When fighting a war, everything you consider is in the service of the war.

But once the battle is over, there are more things to consider.

Otherwise, what do others say? It is difficult to conquer a country, but even more difficult to defend it?

Moreover, this battle is not over yet!

It can only be said to be a temporary truce!

After the army rests, they and Beihuan will definitely continue to fight.

Beihuan was just disabled!

He hasn't been beaten to death yet!

By killing Beihuan, they can safely and boldly garrison the grasslands without worrying about Beihuan's attacks.

Listening to Yun Zheng's detailed talk about the Ling Ling Zong Zong, the two women couldn't help but have a headache.

It feels like these things are indeed more troublesome than fighting!

"Okay, neither of you are meant to worry about these things, so don't worry about it."

Yunzheng shook his head and smiled, then asked Miaoyin, "Have you picked a suitable candidate?"

"A dozen people were picked out."

Miaoyin replied: "Those people are all people whose families have several members in our hands. However, I am not yet confident about them, and I want to observe them secretly for a while."

"That's fine."

Yun Zheng nodded slightly and then ordered: "When the time is right, you can send him out to do simple things. There is only a difference between doing this once and countless times. As long as they become spies once, it will be difficult to turn back in the future... "

Miaoyin thought for a while and looked at Yunzheng angrily, "You are really cunning!"

Yun Zheng laughed and walked towards the city wall with the two girls.

Later, Yun Zheng summoned the generals on the border and told them about the current problems.

After listening to Yun Zheng's words, everyone also started to have a headache.

What Yunzheng said is really troublesome.

Now that Beihuan has fully retreated, it is really unreasonable for them not to seize such a large territory.

But occupying these territories is indeed not as easy as imagined.

Duguce thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "We can leave the other places alone, but we must take over the Muma Grassland!"

Dugu Ce's words were also recognized by everyone.

"Yep!"

"Muma Prairie must be snatched over!"

"We just don't have a good horse ranch..."

"As long as we occupy the Muma Grassland, we will have no shortage of excellent war horses in the future!"

"Yes……"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

They have been coveting the Muma Grassland for a long time.

How big is Moyang Racecourse?

One horse herding grassland is equivalent to several Moyang horse farms.

From the founding of the country to the present, Daqian has suffered too many losses without war horses in the war against Beihuan.

Six years ago, after decades of accumulation, Da Gan finally created a powerful cavalry unit.

As a result, after the first battle, he was beaten back to his original form!

Now that they have this condition, of course they are reluctant to give up the horse herding grassland that is within easy reach.

If possible, they would all like to seize the largest Qinlin grassland in Beihuan.

After listening to everyone's words, Yun Zheng couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

"We must occupy the Muma Grassland!"

Yun Zheng made the final decision and suddenly changed the subject, "However, we have to build a bridge over the river on the west side of Weibian! Otherwise, it will take a long detour to get to Muma Grassland."

When Yunzheng was on the city wall, he originally wanted to get some gunpowder at the source of the tributary and blow up the cliffs on both sides to block the tributary, so that he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.

But he thought about it and gave up that idea.

It is precisely because of the existence of that tributary that the Muma Grassland was born.

If that tributary dries up, the Muma Grassland will soon disappear.

Why bother?

"no problem!"

Dugu Ce said: "The bridge is more than ten feet long. Send more people and it will be completed soon."

If there is a bridge over thirty feet tall, it will definitely be difficult to build a bridge.

But that distance is still very simple.

Yunzheng nodded slightly, "Then leave this matter to General Dugu's supervision!"

"Yes!"

Duguce immediately took the order.

Yunzheng continued: "In addition, we will send another elite army to station near Bailang Lake."

"White Wolf Lake?"

Yu Shizhong thought for a while and immediately realized: "Standing there, not only can we keep an eye on Beihuan, but if any part of the Three Sides City is attacked, we can quickly provide support! Moreover, the supply distance is not too far."

"Well, that's what it means."

Yun Zheng nodded and said: "Yu Shizhong, go to Zhi. You two will lead nine thousand fine cavalry and bring supplies to garrison there! Yu Shizhong will be the main general and Qu Zhi will be the deputy general!"

"Yes!"

The two immediately took orders.

After that, Yunzheng ordered the generals to take the soldiers of Sanbiancheng to open up wasteland and farmland in the area of ​​Sanbiancheng.

It’s not too late to sow food this season, but you can still make some attempts.

If not, it would be good to grow some vegetables.

Looking back, he also planned to ask Zhang Xu to find some experienced Tian soldiers to build a large kiln here.

If the bricks are fired, the guard and clear edges will be repaired.

However, this matter depends on whether the coal on the Arutai site is good or not.

As long as there is enough coal, the kiln and factory will be easy to handle.

After everyone left, Yun Zheng called You Jiu over.

"Has the staff been replenished?"

Yunzheng asked.

"It's all replenished!"

Youjiu nodded.

"That's good!"

Yun Zheng nodded slightly, "You guys take a break for ten days first, and then select the best horses among the captured horses. After ten days, go to Beihuan to train with the battle leader!"

"There are no reinforcements or supplies, it's all up to you!"

"This king has only one request for you, and that is to make the enemy army fear you!"

"If you need any weapons, tell me, and I will ask someone to make them for you as soon as possible!"
