Section One Hundred and Twenty General Staff

"Xiao Lang, the six armies in the first stage have arrived at Muling Pass." A young man next to Yang Heng said in a deep voice: "But the logistics and supplies have not been able to keep up and are stranded north of Yishui."

"Your friend, what's the reason?" A trace of worry flashed between Yang Heng's eyebrows.

"The road was cut off due to heavy rain and heavy rain in the upper reaches of Mushui. Now the Master is repairing it overnight. It will take two days to repair it,..."

Li Fang, whose courtesy name is Youci, was a student of the Dadao Academy at the same time. Later, he joined the school army again. However, Yang Heng and Meng Chong made their debut first, while Li Fang wanted to go there in the next batch. However, he was also among the best among this group of students. Therefore, after the Wuning Left Army had a short period of training, he was also transferred to the General Staff.

There are many aspects involved in this battle, first of all, the issue of logistics support. If an army of more than 50,000 people wants to enter Qingzhou, transportation is a huge trouble.

There are now two paths to transport food and grass. One is to go to Laiwu, pass the southern part of Zibo and enter Qingzhou, and the other is to go directly north from Muling Pass to Qingzhou.

From Muling Pass directly to the north and attacked Qingzhou, this is a determined route for the army to advance, but the line on Muling Pass is all mountainous areas, and it is extremely difficult to transport materials.

Fortunately, Yu Mingzhen was quite foresighted. After taking over Yizhou, he began to recruit a large number of refugees who went south to repair and renovate the road from Yishui County to Muling Pass through labor-for-relief. The situation on this road is pretty good now, and you can pass a car and a horse.

However, you can't count the line from Muling Pass to Qingzhou. Although this line is a traditional business road, it is difficult to travel on the road, and there are many bandits in the mountainous areas. Therefore, although there are business travelers, don't count on road construction. Qingzhou has never had any plans for this.

But since it is a business road after all, ordinary teams can still pass by, but the speed of travel and transportation volume will be greatly reduced.

A small red flag was inserted into Muling Pass, and then a small yellow flag was inserted into the Mushui waterway between Yishui and Muling Pass. The entire sand table was marked by this small flag. In addition, rivers, mountains, city passes, forests, lakes and squashes were visible, allowing people to understand the changes in the situation on the entire battlefield most intuitively.

Such a grand battle is undoubtedly a rare opportunity for the entire staff. The staff and practitioners under the entire staff are enthusiastic, collecting and organizing information, analyzing and judging, simulation and deduction, and emergency preparation. All of this indicates that this war will be the most critical example since the establishment of the General Staff of the Privy Council of the Huaiyou (Wunning) Army.

If this war can be fought well, it will also mean that the General Staff will officially launch a signboard, of course, the premise is that the planning and deployment of the General Staff plays its due role in this war.

However, both Wang Miao, Yang Heng, Li Fang and others are full of confidence in this.

In their opinion, this process of repeated deduction through the summary of various intelligences, taking into account various unexpected factors can greatly improve the efficiency of the advancement and combat deployment of each army.

Although the war is still in the preparation stage, whether it is logistics preparations and military deployment, it has begun to show the advanced nature of this unprecedented management method. Even if there are still many problems here, it cannot cover up its shining advantages.

"Xiao Lang, Sun Chong and Zhao Zidan have not come back yet?" Zhang Ting, who had been reading the information summary, did not look up and asked directly.

"Sir, Sun Chong and his team went to coordinate the subsequent supplementary matters of mules and horses with the Logistics Department. The mules and horse team collected from Fei County have not yet been in place. There is no explanation in the Logistics Department. It has delayed the military opportunity, so someone will be responsible for it!" Yang Heng's tone was a little angry, "Zi Dan and his team went to the Dao Tibetan Materials Office. The various equipment needed to carry in the second echelon have some defects, and the materials office also needs to send more personnel to the team to repair and maintain it..."

Yang Heng's response was orderly, which made Zhang Ting very satisfied.

To be honest, he was very reluctant to preside over the work when he was suddenly transferred to the General Staff.

It’s not that he looks down on this job, after all, it is also an important task to take overall charge of the overall situation. He is more willing to build the army he leads first, and then consider other things after fighting a few decent wars. However, the orders of the Privy Council are unconditional, so he can only obey.

However, after coming to the General Staff for a while, Zhang Ting gradually adapted to and fell in love with this job.

The performance of these little boys under his command was much beyond his expectations.

Before, he looked down on these little guys who were said to have been with the scholars in Dadao Academy for several years. Although he was not much older than them, most of them had no foundation, mostly from poor families, and many of them were orphans. They only started to collect and learn and fight after the county duke took Gushi.

Just a few years, how lucky can these guys have to be and still be reborn?

But reality soon made him overjoyed.

The performance of these guys is really remarkable, especially those like Yang Heng, Li Fang and Sun Chong. Not only are they quite spiritual and conscious, but they have strong learning ability and ability to learn from other things, but these guys have also been in the army and the army for some time.

It can be seen that these guys did not waste their time in the army, and they also had a deeper understanding of the situation of the Huaiyou (Wunning) Army, which is precisely the most important factor in serving as a staff officer and engaging in the staff.

The position establishment of the General Staff Department is divided into interns, engaging in, preparing staff, and further up, the second seat of the General Staff and the first seat of the General Staff.

At present, Zhang Ting is the second-level temporary staff officer in charge of the work of the General Staff. There is only one staff officer and two reserve staff officers in the entire General Staff. There are no one interns, but there are more than ten people, basically all of them are Yang Heng and others.

"Xiaolang, you should also take some specific situations into consideration in advance." Zhang Ting's eagerness towards Yang Heng and the others was quite understandable.

It is time for the General Staff to finally catch up with such a big war, and they will not tolerate any human factors that may bring uncertainties to the war.

However, the three states of Yan, Yun and Yi were first introduced, and from a legal perspective, the court had not yet recognized Huaiyou's rule over it. In addition, Zhu Mao had neglected the local government affairs of these three states for many years, which made the local management capabilities here almost paralyzed.

Now that Huai You takes over, he suddenly needs to build these things up. How can it be that easy?

This is still the case that Yu Mingzhen had already started some preparations before, changing places or people would be even more intimate.

"Yes." Yang Heng bit his lip.

"Xiaolang, what was the situation in Yizhou before? All counties were almost in a state of erosion and paralysis. You should be clear that in the first time the local government was established, how can the sorting out affairs of all parties be accomplished in one go? Some counties have not even set up their airs, and there are not so many officials to enrich themselves. They lack the people they want, and they dare not ask for anything. They would rather have nothing than be abusive, but it also brought a lot of trouble. Therefore, in the future, we should take all these local factors into consideration in the plan and reserve some room for space. Otherwise, it will be too tight and fall off, which will cause the collapse of the entire plan."

Hearing Zhang Ting's tone there was no resentment, there was a little excuse. Yang Heng felt complicated. After all, his group was still too young. Although he had been practicing in the army for a while, the time was too short, and local affairs were even lacking. Aristocratic families like Zhang Ting had a lot of contact with various officials when he was in Daliang and were not unfamiliar with local affairs. In addition, his family background was indeed not something he could catch up with when he was a beginner for a few years, but Yang Heng was confident that as long as he had experienced it a few more times, he would definitely catch up.

He even made a decision, that is, after the General Staff has been trained several times, he would go to various army to train. If he had the opportunity, he would even ask him to give him some opportunities to go to the local government to polish for a period of time so that he could better understand the operating model of the local government, so that the General Staff could better obtain local cooperation in planning in the future.

"I understand."

"Well, Xiaolang, you have done a good job. In the words of the county magistrate, the General Staff is a new thing. Well, everyone still has to cross the river by feeling the stones and try to come up with something you don't understand or have doubts. You must come up with boldly. Some people are also a novice, but they are a few years older than you, and they have a little more knowledge than you." Zhang Ting paused, "By the way, how is the analysis and deduction of General Staff Gao?"

Such a large-scale military attack by Huaiyou cannot hide it. Whether it is against Haimi or Qingzhou, such a large-scale action, the vassals would have a large number of scouts to spy on the intelligence, and then respond to the situation of each vassal.

Huaiyou attacked Pinglu, and almost all the power that could be used was used. Although it is expected that the first phase of the war can be ended within one month, the subsequent changes are not easy to predict. So once the war starts in full, the attitude of the various vassals must be predicted, and then the response preparations need to be made based on the enemy's attitude.

"The first phase analysis report of Chief Gao and others has come out, and they are still in line with the recent information with Wuwentang. The second phase response strategy is still being deduced, but it should mainly focus on the direction of Nanyang and Caizhou, especially Caizhou."

Although Yang Heng was just an intern, Zhang Ting attached great importance to him. He knew that even the county magistrate admired this son very much, so he naturally had to deliberately train him.

"Caizhou? Why is it Caizhou, not Nanyang? Do they have a basis for prediction?"
