1191 Tradition
With the end of the emergency meeting in the Xuanzheng Hall, Datang's decision was directly made. The people who left the Xuanzheng Hall were in different moods, mainly because they were shocked by Datang's new communication technology, but since His Highness said to keep it secret, then Of course they can't discuss it.
But everyone knows that in addition to these officials with missions, other people must also control the relevant material support. Although the supply of logistics materials is stored in various places, it is definitely not enough, so the transportation and deployment from other places must be increased.
These must be the affairs of Shang Shusheng, but Li Ke gave 1000 million guan, which must be enough. A war will not cost 1000 million guan anyway.
The reason why Wei Zheng said that he was militaristic before is because for all dynasties, food and grass are always the most expensive thing to fight. Although food and grass are very expensive, as long as there are no natural or man-made disasters, there must be food and grass to support tens of thousands of people in the past dynasties, and food and grass are not the most expensive.
At worst, learn from the champion Hou Huo Qubing.
Could it be that everyone thought that Huo Qubing's war was the logistics of the big man's support?How could it be possible, with Champion Hou's speed of strategic transfer and tactical penetration back then, they could only bring dry food for a few days, how would they get the rest of the food?
Of course, as the nomads have always done, grab the enemy's!
Therefore, there are no guns or cannons, and the enemy made us have inheritance.
Armaments are always the most expensive things to fight in the past dynasties. Weapons, armors and horses are the most expensive places to spend money. These are also the things that often drag down the treasury.
Once a large amount of weapons and equipment are consumed, more people must be recruited to assist in building equipment. This is not only a problem that requires a huge amount of money, but also affects the livelihood of the people. The war time is too long. This is a vicious circle.
This is why throughout the dynasties, the longer the wars are fought, even if they keep winning, the poorer they will be.
The impact of the deployment of logistics personnel on the country is huge.
But now, the news these generals got from Li Ke made them feel more confident. Indeed, the current Tang Dynasty is not any previous dynasty, and there is no comparison.
There is no problem supporting 30 elites in continuous operations for 20 years. What kind of confidence is this?And there is no problem with the food. Since the Prime Minister has said so, it means that this matter is absolutely true.
As for the transmission of information, they don't need to care about it, but now, do they still need to think about it?Just hit it!
Even, this matter does not need to go through the court, or what His Majesty said is to fight directly without letting this matter pass through the court.
The army directly mobilized the troops on the front line, and His Royal Highness paid for the supplies himself, so what's the matter?
It's like when His Royal Highness's navy captured Linyi and let the king of Linyi come to Datang to plead guilty, did he pass the court?not at all!
When these ministers went home to consider how to carry out the follow-up, the Ministry of Intelligence had quickly sent the relevant information to Kunming and Guangzhou by radio.
Li Hong, who has been waiting here for more than an hour, is not in a hurry, because he knows that even if the news can reach Chang'an in an instant, Chang'an's Majesty and the others still need to discuss it, and there may even be a result tomorrow. It is also normal.
But tonight he and Director Lin had to guard here no matter what.
What Li Hong didn't expect was that in just over an hour, the sound of horseshoes came from outside. Hearing the sound of horseshoes, Li Hong and Director Lin stood up directly. Although Kunming Mansion doesn't have a tall city wall, there is also a curfew here, and only relevant personnel can gallop at night.
Sure enough, within a few minutes, a member of the intelligence department rushed into the hall, and the other party saluted directly: "I have met Li Lishi, Director Lin, Chang'an urgent call."
After speaking, the other party directly handed over two blank papers, and Li Hong took them directly. He saw that the top blank paper was a verification instruction, that is to say, the password on this blank paper was the same as the one he had just seen. If the password is correct, it proves that the message was sent from Chang'an.
Because the paper was written very clearly, even the people in the intelligence department didn't know the pair of passwords.
Li Hong immediately followed the instructions above and opened another large envelope sealed with wax wax. After pulling out the top sheet of paper, Li Hong took a deep breath, because the white paper that the other party sent in just now The password written on it is exactly the same as the password on this piece of paper inside.
Only then did Li Hong read the following content.
"Order Li Hong, the governor of Kunming, to write the Qin King's order on his behalf, and hand over the temporary soldier talisman to Zheng Yuan, the commander of the Yunnan Prefecture theater, and deploy [-] elite soldiers from Yunnan Prefecture, led by Hou Junji and Zhang Liang, to attack Mangbu and Wangbu, aiming at completely destroying the opponent."
"Before Hou Junji and Zhang Liang arrived there, Li Hong could raise all the military supplies needed to dispatch the [-] local army." The signature below was Li Ke, King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty.
It was only after this that Li Hong discovered that there was actually a blank imperial decree with the names of His Highness and His Majesty signed and stamped in the big envelope. He only needed to write the relevant content on it.
Li Hong took a deep breath. He never expected that in just over an hour, the orders from Chang'an City, which was four thousand miles away, had already arrived at him.
However, Li Hong quickly prepared the pen and ink, and started writing directly on it.
After finishing writing, Li Hong handed over the relevant imperial decree to Director Lin, and the temporary soldier amulet on the content of the telegram that Director Lin called just now is in the hands of the Ministry of Intelligence.
The temporary soldier talisman cannot mobilize the army to attack casually, but it can make the army enter the first level of combat readiness, and make preparations for defense and related troops.
Afterwards, Hou Junji, Zhang Liang and others came with official military symbols and related orders.
Although the procedure is cumbersome, Li Hong knows that this is necessary.
This kind of active military mobilization must have certain restrictions. In fact, the military chiefs in their border areas have a certain degree of independent decision-making power, but this independent decision-making power is conditional, that is, different conditions such as discovering enemies and foreign invasions, and saving the people.
After receiving the imperial decree handed over by Li Hong, Director Lin saluted Li Hong directly, turned around and walked out.
The military camp is still outside Kunming City, so he has to go to the military camp to announce the order.
