Take the city to the Warring States

Chapter 27 Proposal for an Expedition to a Medium Tribe
There was a sound of footsteps, and Zhang Liang, Xiao He, and Han Xin bowed to Zhao Wuming: "I don't know if my lord is urgently recruiting ministers, what should I do?"

"When I came to Seoul alone, I found good timber and edge trees brought by Wei Guo outside Handan City. It is estimated that the time when Wei Guo sent troops is not far away."When Zhao Wuming talked about this matter, he felt worried.It would be great if I could stay in Seoul all the time, but unfortunately this is just a luxury.

The three of Xiao He fell into deep thought, and when they thought of the situation Zhao Wuming was facing, they became distressed again.After a while, Zhang Liang raised his head and looked at Zhao Wuming: "My lord lives outside the city of Handan. If the Wei State raids Handan, I'm afraid it will be the most detrimental to my lord."

"What I am worried about is not Wei's army, but some people in the city."Xiao He seemed to think of something, looked at everyone, and finally turned to Zhao Wuming.

Hearing Xiao He's worry, a thought flashed through Han Xin's mind, and he asked subconsciously: "The prime minister is worried, Zhao Wang of Zhao State, Zhao Yu and Zhao Fan?".

"If they learn that the army of the Wei State is besieging the city, send dead soldiers out of the city to hunt and kill the lord, and then push the blame to the Wei State, then everything will be fine."As Xiao He spoke, his brows gradually frowned, obviously this crisis was not easy to resolve.

Fan Kui listened to the discussion of several people, and blurted out subconsciously: "There is a way that soldiers come to cover up water and earth. They have soldiers in Zhao and Wei. Don't we have soldiers in Seoul?".

"What General Fan said is reasonable. Liang and the lord discussed it at the beginning. If there are a large number of personal soldiers accompanying this matter, it should not be difficult."Hearing Fan Kuai's words, Zhang Liang smiled when he thought about the discussion with Zhao Wuming.

Xiao He seemed to have thought of something, and shook his head again: "Even if the lord has a large number of personal soldiers, how can he settle down and explain it? You must know that it is Zhao Guo after all."

"The prime minister doesn't know that, in order to punish the orphan, the king of Zhao once moved the people with a radius of 12 miles to another place at one time. If the soldiers are scattered and hidden somewhere, it shouldn't be a big problem."When Zhao Wuming talked about relocating the people, his mouth was full of bitterness.A [-]-year-old child was driven out of the city with a green bird.Zhao Wang was still not at ease, and his intentions were really good and hard to relocate the people within a radius of twenty miles at one time.

Sensing Zhao Wuming's bitter heart, the City Lord's Mansion was silent for a while.After a while, Han Xin looked at Zhao Wuming: "Since there is a place to settle the guards, the remaining thing is to try our best to upgrade the city and expand the scale of the guards."

"If it wasn't for the general's reminder, Gu would have almost forgotten to watch the information after the city upgrade."Han Xin's reminder made Zhao Wuming come to his senses.Quickly picked up the official seal on the table, and a virtual interface slowly opened.

City name: Seoul, level: small city with two levels, land area: 200 (one point is equal to one square kilometer).The current resources are full, the prosperity is full, and the city can be upgraded.

Population ceiling: [-], current population: [-].

Army limit: [-], current number of troops: [-].

Upper limit of copper coins: 20, currently 20 copper coins.

Upper limit of stones: 20, the current number is 20.

Timber upper limit: 20, the current quantity is 20.

Bronze upper limit: 20, the current number is 20.

Food upper limit: 20, the current quantity is 20.

Servant Army Forces: There are six small Xiongnu tribes, with a population of 24 and a force of 16.There are two small Donghu tribes, with a population of 40 million and a force of [-].The total population is [-] and the force is [-].

Zhao Wuming blinked, and blinked again in disbelief: "Why are the resources and prosperity full?".

"During the absence of the lord, the minister made his own decision. The 30 sheep and 30 horses in the treasury were used as the price to exchange these resources and copper coins."Shen Wansan was a little proud when talking about this matter.

Thinking of the time when I was cheated by merchants when I left Seoul last time, I just feel a little depressed: "At the beginning, I used only 20 sheep and [-] horses each, and only exchanged for [-] various resources. Thinking about it now, I really feel ashamed." .

"My lord, there is no need to blame yourself. After all, the price fluctuates from time to time, and these are normal."Shen Wansan reassured that the prices of sheep, horses and various materials are actually uncertain.Get slaughtered once, let him spit it out next time.

A question that he was most concerned about appeared in his mind, and instantly suppressed the matter of being slaughtered.Zhao Wuming watched carefully on the virtual interface, but in the end he still didn't see the information he needed most: "Why didn't Gu see the size of the personal guard?"

As soon as the words fell, another virtual interface opened.Due to the upgrade of the city, Sun Buer's command value has increased to [-] (you can go to the military camp by yourself and select your own guards).Han Xin's command value increased to [-].

Zhao Wuming suddenly realized, and smiled at a few people: "So, why does the general only see that the command value of you and Sun Buer has been improved."

"Did the lord forget? It's out of privacy considerations. If others don't want to show the lord, then the lord can't see it."Han Xin reminded Zhao Wuming, and then his mind moved.Regarding his command value, it will also be hidden.

Watching Han Xin's command value disappear on the virtual interface, Zhao Wuming tapped his hand on the virtual interface, and the virtual interface turned into nothingness: "Since the city can already be upgraded, it's better to upgrade alone first, and discuss other things."

"Wait a minute, my lord. Upgrading the city requires me to leave the city lord's mansion. It's better to finish the discussion at this time, and it's not too late to upgrade."Seeing that Zhao Wuming was about to upgrade the city, Zhang Liang quickly dissuaded him.

Zhao Wuming looked at several people suspiciously: "Oh, what is so urgent?"

"There is a medium-sized Xiongnu tribe located in the north of our city, and there are four small tribes around it, three of which were captured by our city. At this time, the letter suggested that after the lord upgrades the city, immediately send troops to attack the middle-level tribe in the north. In this way, I will upgrade Seoul to a large city as soon as possible."Han Xin quickly told Zhao Wuming what he had discussed with Zhang Liang and the others during this period.

Zhao Wuming obviously didn't expect this, slightly surprised: "How about the comparison of troops? What are our chances of winning?"

"The medium-sized tribe has 20 people and [-] troops. In addition, it can mobilize its subordinate small tribes to join the war. Excluding the three that were surrendered by us, the middle-level tribe in the north can also mobilize the strength of a small tribe, which is about [-] in total. Thousand Hun cavalry".Han Xin talked eloquently, and he had a long discussion with Zhang Liang about this matter.If Zhao Wuming came a little later, it is estimated that this medium-sized tribe has already been captured by him.

Zhao Wuming thought about it, and thought of the information about Seoul just now, he nodded slightly: "I have [-] soldiers in Seoul, and [-] servants can give it a try."

"Since the lord agrees, the ministers will go to prepare immediately."Han Xin was overjoyed, so his hard work was not in vain.

Zhao Wuming nodded, Xiao He looked at Cao Shen and Shen Wansan, and then bowed to Zhao Wuming: "Since the Lord agrees with this expedition, the ministers will also go, prepare food and supplies, and leave first."

"Food and supplies?".Zhao Wuming was taken aback by what he said, he didn't seem to need these things last time.

Xiao He nodded, and explained to Zhao Wuming: "That medium-sized city is more than 1000 miles away from our city of Seoul, and our army has more than [-] soldiers. How could it be possible that we don't need food, grass and supplies?".

"So that's the case, I'm sorry for you."After thinking about it, Zhao Wuming felt that it made sense. At the beginning, the army was only five thousand, and the battlefield was only hundreds of miles away. Naturally, he didn't feel the follow-up supplies and the like.But now that the [-] troops are dispatched, if the battlefield is thousands of miles away, there will indeed be big problems if there is no follow-up supply.

Han Xin, Fan Kui and others saluted, then turned and left to prepare for the expedition.
