Jiang Pengji said this because there was a similar library in the previous dynasty called the Golden Scale Library.
The Golden Scale Library was proposed by Prime Minister Huangfu Xiu of the previous dynasty. Its original purpose was to benefit the scholars of poor families.
However, since Prime Minister Huangfu's death and his body was dismembered and cooked, the Golden Scale Library became a place that only the nobles were qualified to enter.
Jiang Pengji now proposed to build a library similar to the Golden Scale Library. Presumably, all the scholars of poor families in the world would respond.
"Previously, I said that I would help people write books. With the consent of the people involved, the samples they leave behind will also be added to the library. Or, we can specially open such a place for people to communicate and discuss. " Jiang Pengji was sure that if these three things were done well, Wanzhou would become the holy land in the hearts of the scholars of the world. When that time came, she would slowly choose and not worry about not having enough talents.
After saying this, Jiang Pengji began to select people.
Qiguan Rang and Feng Zhen went to Chongzhou. Yang Si went to Hu County. Xu Ke and Feng Jin stayed behind to manage Wanzhou.
Liu She agreed to retreat behind the scenes and give all power to Jiang Pengji, but whether she could completely conquer Chongzhou would depend on her ability.
Qiguan Rang was from Chongzhou. He was very familiar with the situation there. Feng Zhen looked unreliable, but in fact, he was very scheming.
When the two of them worked together, it would be difficult for others to take advantage of them.
The local nobles in Hu County had been beaten by Liu She, so it was relatively easy to conquer. Yang Si could handle it alone.
Xu Ke and Feng Jin had a tacit understanding. Jiang Pengji was very relieved to let them stay in the base camp.
After talking about "management," let's talk about "stationing the fields."
Since ancient times, before the troops and horses moved, provisions and fodder came first.
With sufficient provisions and fodder, there would be confidence in fighting a war.
Jiang Pengji said, "Stationing the fields has begun to show results. Before Zixiao went to Shangjing, he gave me many suggestions. I think it is feasible. I plan to open up a wasteland of fertile farmland in Chongzhou and station troops there on a large scale. In this way, not only will we be able to relieve the pressure on our supplies, but we will also be able to shorten the length of our supply lines. "
Qiguan Rang and Feng Zhen had already heard Wei Ci talk about the matter of Chongzhou's farming. Naturally, they had no objections.
The others secretly calculated and agreed with this proposal.
If they didn't farm, they wouldn't have been able to raise such a large army.
After many rounds of recruitment, Wanzhou now had sixty thousand soldiers and horses, and the size of the female battalion had also expanded to seven thousand.
This was the result of Jiang Pengji deliberately raising the bar.
If they did not reject anyone, their military strength could reach more than a hundred thousand.
Within the borders of Dongqing, Jiang Pengji was the undisputed ruler of the north.
Li Yun asked, "Is there any ownerless wasteland in Chongzhou that can be cultivated?"
Because of excessive land annexation, a lot of land is private property of the wealthy families.
This time, the scale of the farm should be quite large. If there isn't enough land, I'm afraid it won't work.
Jiang Pengji smirked. "We'll talk about it when the time comes."
The location of the field can only be decided after a field inspection.
If the local tyrants were smart, she didn't mind a win-win cooperation. If they were not sensible, she could only "seize the field by force. Originally, Wei Ci was in charge of it."
However, Wei Ci had already gone to Shangjing to supervise the construction of the provincial government. Now, he was divided and unable to do anything.
Jiang Pengji thought about it and named Li Yun. She asked him to take on the role of Chongzhou's military officer of agriculture and specifically deal with this matter.
Li Yunkai happily agreed.
There were only so many details about the field. Jiang Pengji changed the topic to "training soldiers."
When it came to training soldiers, the group of generals seemed to have been injected with chicken blood. One by one, they were full of energy.
Jiang Pengji asked them about the progress of the training of new recruits one by one and received satisfactory responses.
"In five years at the latest, we will go to war with the Northern Borderline." Jiang Pengji started talking. The generals couldn't help but perk up their ears and listen attentively. They were afraid of missing a word. "I think everyone is clear about the strength of the Northern Borderline's cavalry. They move quickly and deploy their troops flexibly, but they also have obvious disadvantages. I intend to take advantage of this disadvantage and specially train the army to restrain the cavalry. I have proposed this before, but the scale of the training is too small and the results are not great. Now, we will really implement this and officially divide the army! "
The Northern Borderline relies too much on the cavalry. The army is very monotonous.
Their speed is indeed very fast, but they are not invincible. They also have fatal weaknesses.
First, their defense is not strong.
Second, the army is too monotonous. Once they encounter a specialized army, there is almost no way to turn the situation around.
Jiang Pengji intends to officially divide the army into different types and increase the diversity of the army. This will also allow more flexible deployment and command on the battlefield.
In order to restrain the cavalry, Jiang Pengji came up with a lot of targeted plans.
There are military formations, army types, defensive equipment, and more insidious traps.
Everyone turned the page of the booklet in their hands. Suddenly, they felt a chill down their backs. There was only one thought in their minds —
How difficult is it for our lord to get along with the cavalry?
Looking at the content written by Jiang Pengji, they thought about it a little and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for the Northern Borderline cavalry.
First, let's talk about military formations. The booklet drew a simple fish scale formation. The heavy infantry were to hold shields and spears and form a square formation similar to fish scales. Jiang Pengji had led more than a hundred soldiers to sneak into Jiamen Pass and break out of the encirclement. The military formation they used could be regarded as a small fish scale formation.
However, the Northern Borderline cavalry is mostly light cavalry in cloth clothes or rattan armor. They are very mobile.
If the enemy is not surrounded, this kind of fish scale formation is not very effective.
Then there is the spear formation that everyone is more familiar with.
The advantages of the spear formation are obvious, but so are its weaknesses.
However, Jiang Pengji previously proposed to divide the army types and let the different types cooperate to make up for each other's shortcomings.
In this way, the spear formation is not without merit.
Speaking of military formations, there are also ferocious crossbowmen. They use the improved crossbows that Jiang Pengji has improved several times before.
Jiang Pengji's original troops all used the improved crossbows. Over the years, she has developed many ways to cooperate in battle. It is quite effective.
In addition to the improved crossbows, the army also has the ballista.
It has a long range, great power, and high lethality. It can cause great damage to the charging Northern Borderline cavalry.
In addition to these, there are other "gadgets", such as the barricade spear and the iron caltrops.
The barricade spear can be arranged in front of the army to block the charging horses and prevent the cavalry from charging.
The iron caltrops have four sides. No matter how you look at them, there will be one side facing up. They are sprinkled on the enemy's charging path and slightly covered with grass and trees. If a horse steps on them, the iron caltrops will pierce into the horse's hooves, almost crippling the horse.
In the booklet, they also saw two new weapons with new designs.
One is shaped like a sickle, specially used to cut the horse's legs. The other is thick and mighty, named Zhanmadao.
Jiang Pengji intends to train special forces, about 5,000 of them, to fight against the Northern Borderline's warhorses.
Compared to the ability to fight on horseback, the Northern Borderline cavalry is not good at fighting on foot.
