In October, the weather in Longyou Road became colder and colder.
It even started to snow in some places.
Although there was no snow in the vicinity of Jiuquan County, the weather was getting colder and colder. In the past month or so, the politics and economy of Jiuquan County had undergone tremendous changes. It could be said that the government was in harmony with the people. The government issued many government decrees to benefit the merchants, causing all the unreasonable situations to be rectified and corrected.
Du Qi saw all this and was quite satisfied. Ye Daosheng was a good person.
He was quite capable.
On this day, in the study.
Du Qi's study was burning charcoal to dispel the coldness.
While Du Qi was reading, Liu Zhengxi pushed the door open and entered. Liu Zhengxi bowed to Du Qi and reported, "Your Highness, the construction team in Chang 'an has arrived in Jiuquan County."
"The one leading them is Xia Lie."
"In addition, we've found a suitable mining site for the cement factory in Jiuquan County. We've started to build the factory. In a few days, our factory will be able to produce cement in large quantities. "
Liu Zhengxi said, "It's too troublesome to transport cement from Chang 'an, and the transportation cost is huge. But now, we can produce it ourselves. "
"Good, good!"
Du Qi nodded and said, "Although the cement factory was stationed in Jiuquan County, the storage of cement was limited. After all, it's not easy to transport cement over a long distance. "
Liu Zhengxi said, "Your Highness is right. This is our current shortcoming. It's what we lack. But with Xia Lie's arrival, everything will change. We won't be constrained anymore. "
Du Qi said, "Since the cement factory has started to build, we can start to build roads. Ask the cement factory to build a concrete road outside the factory as they build the factory. It'll be a model road. "
"Next, we'll build roads in Jiuquan County. Although Jiuquan County is not our final foothold, it's connected to Longyou Road. To some extent, it's also connected to Chang 'an. So, we need to build roads too. "
Du Qi said, "This model road is for everyone to observe."
Liu Zhengxi said, "I'll arrange it as soon as possible."
Du Qi nodded and said, "I'll wait for your good news. As for the cement factory, make early arrangements."
"Yes!"
Liu Zhengxi agreed and stood up to leave.
"Reporting!"
At this moment, a soldier's voice sounded from outside the study.
Du Qi said, "Come in."
The door was pushed open with a creak. A soldier came in and said, "Your Highness, Xue Rengui and Xiao Yuan Qi want to see you."
"Please!"
Du Qi ordered.
After a while, Xue Rengui and Xiao Yuan Qi came in together.
The two of them bowed to Du Qi at the same time.
Xiao Yuanqi took the initiative to say, "Your Highness, we are here for the bandits occupying the Golden Mountain in the west of Jiuquan County."
Du Qi said, "Do you have any ideas?"
Xiao Yuan Qi looked at Xue Rengui and motioned for Xue Rengui to speak.
Xue Rengui didn't hesitate and said, "Your Highness, we have 800 elite soldiers under our command. Now the soldiers' strength has increased, but they still lack the experience of war."
"Without the baptism of war and experience of war, this army will always lack combat power. So our plan is to attack the Golden Mountain to train the soldiers. "
"What's more, now the winter is approaching, and the weather is getting colder and colder. Sending the soldiers in such a difficult environment can be more effective in training the soldiers."
Xue Rengui said, "So, I think that we can not only train the soldiers, but also have a chance to destroy the Golden Mountain bandits. It's a great opportunity."
"That's true!"
Du Qi smiled.
After a pause, Du Qi continued, "Since you plan to attack the bandits in the Golden Mountain to train the soldiers. What do you need for this battle? "
Xue Rengui shook his head and said, "Your Highness, we don't need anything. We just need your support. With His Highness's support, our 1,600 elites will be enough to achieve victory. Even if the Golden Mountain bandits have some combat power, they are nothing to be afraid of. "
Du Qi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait for your good news."
"Yes!"
Xue Rengui and Xiao Yuan Qi nodded at the same time.
The two of them were here to ask for Du Qi's support. Now that Du Qi had agreed, everything was easy. They came in a hurry and left in a hurry. After asking for the order, they left and went straight back to the camp.
Inside the main tent.
Xue Rengui and Xiao Yuan Qi sat opposite each other.
There weren't many soldiers in the army.
Only the two of them were in charge. As for the other staff officers, generals, and generals, they weren't equipped yet. It wasn't that they weren't equipped, but that there were no such talents in the army, only the two of them.
Xue Rengui said quickly, "Old Xiao, we decided to attack the Golden Mountain bandits on the spur of the moment, so we went to see His Highness. Now that His Highness has agreed, we can discuss the details of the deployment. You've been sending scouts to investigate the topography of the Golden Mountain. Tell me, how should we arrange this matter? "
Xiao Yuan Qi stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Don't. Although I've thought about it, you often go to see Mr. Liu, and you're good at military tactics. You also know the map of the Golden Mountain."
After a pause, Xiao Yuan Qi said, "Don't talk nonsense in front of me. Don't be modest. Just tell me what we need to do and what we need to do. If it's suitable, we'll do it. "
Xue Rengui smiled and said, "I'm just trying."
"Say it!"
Xiao Yuan Qi said.
In fact, Xiao Yuan Qi admired Xue Rengui. Because during this period, Xiao Yuan Qi had fought with Xue Rengui several times, but without exception, he was defeated in the first round.
Now, Xiao Yuan Qi was defeated more and more cleanly, and Xue Rengui's strength was getting stronger and stronger.
Even though Xue Rengui was young.
But Xue Rengui's strength couldn't be ignored.
It was shocking.
What's more, Xiao Yuan Qi and Xue Rengui often talked about military tactics. Xue Rengui could talk freely every time, and quoted the classics. The most important thing was that Xue Rengui's military tactics were not conventional, which made Xiao Yuan Qi admire him.
In short, Xiao Yuan Qi admired Xue Rengui.
That was why Xiao Yuan Qi asked Xue Rengui to make the strategy.
Xue Rengui said, "Old Xiao, you and I both know that the Gold Mountain is not a special steep mountain. Of course, it's not an ordinary mountain, so it has some advantages. "
"That's why the bandits of the Gold Mountain are entrenched there. According to the information we've gathered, we can attack the Gold Mountain from the front from Jiuquan County. "
"That's one way."
"There's another way, which is to go to the back of the Gold Mountain and climb the mountain from the northwest side. But the northwest side of the Gold Mountain is steeper, so it's not easy to climb. "
"After all, there's a cliff, but once you climb the mountain, you can go straight to the top."
"Those are the two ways to the Gold Mountain."
Xue Rengui's eyes flashed with wisdom, and he said seriously, "What I mean is, Old Xiao, you take people to the foot of the Gold Mountain and pretend to attack, and even negotiate with Shen Biao, the leader of the bandits, to buy time for me. I'll lead a small number of soldiers to climb the mountain from the back and take down the base of the Gold Mountain bandits. In this way, we can win in one go. "
"Old Xiao, what do you think?"
Xue Rengui put forward his suggestion.
That was his plan to break the Gold Mountain.
