Chapter 326 (1/2)
In fact, Wei Ran still has some worries. At present, he is only 4000 people. Although he consumes a lot, he can afford it only with the accumulation of the Cheng family.
After defeating Tubo, Wei Ran planned to expand his troops to at least 14000, reach a complete establishment in the art of war of Wei Gong, and then at least separate kuozhou or Hezhou.
It can be divided into two places. To the west, it can be based on the vast plain at the end of dafichuan and Hunan, Qinghai. It is suitable for grazing and raising horses. To the south, it is the hometown of Tuyuhun. The land can be used for farming and grazing.
Moreover, Tuyuhun's hometown is a rare area in this plateau area that can cultivate and develop agriculture. Barley, corn and beans can be planted. At the same time, the war horses produced are very excellent. The famous green horse comes from here, which is also the one Wei Ran is riding now.
At the same time, there is no shortage of copper and iron ore here. The weapons are used by the original soldiers.
Therefore, the separation of kuozhou and Hezhou is of great significance to Wei Ran. It means that there is a place where he can make blood by himself and sit on the silk road.
Relying on handicrafts, animal husbandry and trade, he can feed 14000 troops and horses under his name. With these 14000 troops, if the imperial court wants to deal with the Li family, Wei Ran even dares to go east and take all the States and counties in the east of Longyou. With him, the reputation and foundation of the Li family in Longyou road can be digested immediately after being taken down.
Then go east and cross the Qinling Mountains, you can go directly to the Guanzhong Plain and forge ahead in Chang'an!
Of course, now Wei Ran has another thing to deal with, that is, the affairs of the Jianghu.
Looking back, when his own soldiers moved 42 chapters from the library room, Wei Ran began to crack the secret letter according to the content in his memory.
After the words were cracked one by one, the content of the letter was to inform the Tubo generals in michuan county that they dared to kill more than 1000 people in the camp to make a surprise attack to the West.
It also describes in detail the strength, equipment and the amount of grain and grass carried by the Death Squadron. Wei Ran described in detail all aspects of the general's character and ability.
It even gave suggestions to arrange personnel to ambush on both sides of the Yellow River. When the dare to die camp passes, it will be blocked in front of it, and there will be no one left!
After reading it, Wei Ran sat at his desk and looked out of the window at the stars. He was silent. His face gradually became as gloomy as water. At the same time, ideas and thoughts flashed through his mind.
Chang Xuanyi... Before the next battle with Tubo, I will kill him!
When Wei Ran interpreted the Forty-two Chapters, a Li and bu Lanshan were in the same room.
A Li deliberately took out different books and compared the contents of the letter according to the Yin Fu Sutra, but pretended that he had no intention of putting the Forty-two Chapters in a place not far away.
Bu Lanshan felt that a Li's practice was naive and ridiculous, but he had nothing to do. He would play with the children, turn over the Forty-two Chapters and translate them according to the ciphertext of the letter
At the beginning, he translated a smooth sentence. Bu Lanshan was very surprised and thought it would be such a coincidence?
Then continue to decipher, and the result is to decipher the whole content directly! Looking at the complete contents of the letter, it is normal to think that Tubo worshipped Buddhism and used the Forty-two Chapters of Buddhist classics as the original ciphertext.
So he hurried to find Zhuo Lancang and told her about it. After seeing the contents of the letter, both teachers and disciples were in a cold sweat.
