You must master the vertical posture well. You can easily calculate it through calculations of the vertical posture no matter how many digits it is." Li Chen said in the classroom.

These students are extremely intelligent, although they have never been exposed to vertical calculations. But when Li Chen taught them vertical, they almost understood them at all.

"Dong, dun, dun." The classroom door was opened with a crack, and Wang Jian waved to Li Chen and signaled him to come out.

"Elder General, what's the matter?" Li Chen asked.

"Your Majesty summoned me and something happened to Baiyue." Wang Jian said earnestly.

"But Tu Sui was defeated." Li Chen asked tentatively. Assuming that the wheel of history was still on the right track, then it should be no different from the moment Tu Sui was defeated in his previous life.

Li Chen had already reminded the First Emperor that the mobilization of the 300,000 army could not be solved overnight. Sure enough, the defeat of the Qin Dynasty still came.

"This damn Tu Sui, I have warned him not to trade. But he is fine. He doesn't count on his death, but he has ruined my 200,000 troops in the Qin Dynasty. Now there are only 100,000 defeated soldiers in the Baiyue land, and even Wu'an Jun is still in his lifetime, it is difficult to save this situation." Wang Jian said that Tu Sui was gritting his teeth.

There are 5 million people in this Baiyue land, and more than a hundred small countries. Among them, Yuechang, Luoyue, Ouyue, Oua, Qiou, West Ou, North Bian, District Wu, and Puju are the strongest.

Now, it is the head of these nine countries that have sent more than 500,000 troops to jointly fight against Qin.

The failure of this war was like the thunder in early spring, slashing on the giant Qin Dynasty, and in the hearts of all the old Qin people.

"Everyone, who will give me an explanation?" Li Chen heard the plain voice of the First Emperor from afar.

Yes, the First Emperor's voice was very dull and there was no trace of anger. Perhaps as the tycoon in Shanghai in his previous life said, this top-level person has the ability but no temper, the second-level person has the ability but no temper, and the last-level person has the ability but no temper.

"Your Majesty's tone should not be angry. Wei Xiaozi, otherwise you can go in first." Wang Jian said in a low voice outside the hall.

"Why would the Marquis go in first? The two old men are not straight and just walk in slowly." Wei Liaozi said.

"I believe you to the ghosts. You two old men are very bad." Li Chen said to the traitor and slick two men.

"Bang."

"Come, take off his official robe and go out." Li Chen just raised his foot and was about to go in when he heard a angrily scolding from the hall.

When the First Emperor heard the news of the destruction of the 200,000 army, he was not so angry, but after hearing this person speak the peace talk, the First Emperor was so angry.

"Your Majesty, I don't accept it. I'm for the sake of the Qin Dynasty."

The man was crossed by the guards and shouted and struggled all the way.

When Li Chen looked at this kid, he must remember his appearance. Next time he would be far away from him. This kind of slaughtering skill should be as far away as possible.

The First Emperor attached much importance to the frontier than anyone imagined. Li Chen knew that the war with Baiyue was afraid that it would have to fight.

"Come in." The First Emperor said to the three men who were dressing up at the door.

"I tell you today that I have to fight this battle."

"I, old Qin, have blood flowed and dried up to death. I, old Qin, have never had such a trend before." The First Emperor looked at the civil and military officials in the court and said in a remarkable voice.

"This is a national war, and it must be a long-lasting war. The surplus grain in the national treasury is still sufficient, so your Majesty does not need to worry about the logistics and food," said Zhili Neishi.

Since Li Chen popularized potatoes and sweet potatoes, this kind of output has been huge. The grain that can be harvested in a few months has occupied the dining tables of the people of Daqin. The food and grass are no longer the problem of Daqin.

"Your Majesty, this battle is hard to fight, there are no soldiers in the country." Wei Liaozi said with a tough bullet.

Wei Liaozi was the national lieutenant of the Qin Dynasty. In theory, the first official of the Qin army was responsible for controlling the military of the whole country.

"Yes." The First Emperor replied softly.

The atmosphere in the court was a little awkward for a moment. This was a war that only a few civil servants supported fighting since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, but military generals believed that it was unbearable.

War should be something that experts do. The reason why civil servants are willing to fight this war is because there are plenty of warehouses and their pockets are magnificent. These literati don’t have to worry about the logistics of the army. As for who to fight the war, it has nothing to do with them.

As for the generals, they knew the embarrassment of the Qin Dynasty at this time. Years of war had caused the proportion of young and strong Qin to decline rapidly. The crops could ripen every year, but a young man would take more than ten years to grow. The source of troops has now become a problem that Qin urgently wants to solve.

A good general cannot win a battle without a rice cooker.

"I plan to recruit 300,000 troops again and send a hundred Yue troops." The First Emperor pondered for a few seconds and said.

"Your Majesty, don't force the robbery." Before everyone could speak, Li Chen retorted.

The Qin Dynasty raised nearly two million troops with a population of about 30 million. The ratio of people to soldiers has reached 15 to 1, which is already a very dangerous number.

War is not as simple as 15 people raising a soldier. The number of civilians who need to transport food and weapons in one single order is probably much larger than the number of soldiers.

Once the proportion between the military and civilians is too disparity, it will inevitably drag down a country.

"Your Majesty, the army cannot be conquered." Li Chen looked at the First Emperor again, shook his head slightly, and his face was full of solemnity.

How rich was the Great Sui Dynasty in later generations? It was precisely because Yang Guang, the three campaigns of Goguryeo, exhausted his national strength and finally ended up being destroyed by a country.

Fighting, recruiting troops, and consuming food and grass is a cycle. If you can fight one battle and use war to support the war, it will naturally be better.

But if the war is stalemate, it will fall into a vicious cycle that can drag down the Qin Dynasty. War requires the labor force for the middle-aged people, and the lack of labor force for cultivation will reduce the harvest of the Qin Dynasty. Food and grass are the key to the left and right, and the lack of food and grass will make the war situation even more stalemate.

Therefore, the current Daqin army is absolutely unavailable.

"Weidiao, how many soldiers can be mobilized in China now?" asked the First Emperor Chongwei Liaozi.

"Your Majesty, the army of Meng Tian and General Wang Ben cannot move. The new army cannot move either. If we dig out the garrison corps in various places, the maximum number of soldiers we can move is only 100,000." Wei Liaozi pondered for a long time, then said slowly after making a draft.

"One hundred thousand, Baiyue still has 100,000 remaining soldiers, but who is sure to defeat Baiyue with 200,000 Qin troops." The First Emperor looked at the civil and military officials in the court and said slowly.

For a moment, the court fell into an awkward atmosphere again, which should be the most embarrassing court meeting since the founding of the Qin Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, this..." Wei Liaozi seemed to want to say what to write.

"Your Majesty, Baiyue trees are high and deep. They drilled into the forest, and we had no choice."

"I said that the whole people of Baiyue are soldiers, and this population of 5 million wants to conquer with a total of 200,000 troops. I am afraid..." Seeing his old friend's embarrassment, Wang Jian rescued the siege.
