At present, the main force of the Ming army's southern expedition was concentrated in the Danan Pass area, which is not appropriate.

Su Yonglin ordered a 35,000 army to stay in the Danan Pass area, and all the remaining troops retreated, actively shortened the logistics distance and reduced the logistics pressure, and instead transported all the food and fodder that can be mobilized to the Danan Pass area, and all the custodial troops of 35,000 people were supplied.

The list of this guard troops is the 19th Army of the Seventh Corps directly led by Zhao Yucheng, and the 5,000 people from the Second Swordsman Battalion directly under Su Yonglin, all of which are handed over to Zhao Yucheng. In case of a war, Zhao Yucheng will be in charge of command.

If the Li family of Nanyue really planned to go against the Ming Dynasty, or wanted to test the Ming Dynasty's bottom line, Su Yonglin would let them know what the style of a great power is without hesitation.

After the order was issued, on the third day of the second month of the ninth year of Hongwu, Su Yonglin personally led the Second Battalion of the Shenji to Danan Pass. On the eighth day of the second month, Su Yonglin led his army to Danan Pass.

Danan Pass appeared as early as the Western Han Dynasty. It was originally called Yongji Pass, and later it was called Jieshou Pass.

The era has passed down to this day, and the name Danan Pass, which has been passed down from the Tang Dynasty, is more familiar to Su Yonglin. The name it owned after Zhu Di sent troops to the south - Zhennan Pass.

On the left side of the Guan Building is the Zuobi Mountain City Wall and on the right side is the Youfu Mountain City Wall, just like a giant python connecting the foothills of two mountains. It is majestic and has been a major transportation route from Guangxi to Nanyue since ancient times, and has always been valued by military strategists throughout the ages.

After Su Yonglin arrived at Danan Pass, he met Zhao Yucheng and Zhang Yuejing, who was arranging troops to various places to deploy defenses and fight public security wars.

Zhang Yuejing has not met Su Yonglin for some years. When the old brother meets, he naturally has a lot to say. He was quite excited and said a lot to Su Yonglin.

After that, Su Yonglin called Zhao Yucheng and Zhang Yuejing together and held a small meeting, telling them what they would make in the future.

In fact, it is also very simple. It will later turn Guangnan East Road and Guangnan West Road into Guangdong Province and Guangxi Province of the Ming Dynasty. Then the First Corps needs to be stationed in Guangxi Province, and the Seventh Corps will be stationed in Guangdong Province.

The two main corpses are under great pressure on the local area, so at that time, several other provinces will be arranged to help each other to provide the logistics needs of 200,000 troops.

But it makes sense for them to be stationed here.

The land of Lingnan has just become the territory of the Ming Dynasty. Not to mention that some landlords and powerful people have not been solved through revolutionary methods, there are still some problems of local chieftain tribes that are more difficult to solve. These require the army to deter them and then be solved one by one by one by administrative means.

If it really doesn't work, the army will be the final solution to the problem.

There is also the response to the Dali Kingdom and the Li family in Nanyue.

This is not enough to rely solely on the establishment of the Sichuan-Shu area, which has just been decided to establish and has not yet fully formed its combat effectiveness. The First Corps, the most qualified elite main battle corps of the Ming army, needs to be stationed in Guangxi Province, and give Dali a certain amount of pressure from the east to share the pressure of the Sichuan-Shu Eighth Corps.

The Seventh Corps serves as the general reserve team, stationed in the relatively stable Guangdong Province. Once war breaks out on the frontier, the Seventh Corps can be mobilized nearby.

In addition, arranging some troops to be stationed here can also help local construction. Su Yonglin planned to let the army develop a rotation mechanism and take turns to help local governments do some construction work when manpower is insufficient.

However, this requires these two main combat corps to stay in Lingnan for a long time. If war happens in the future, they may have to go south further.

"I am not worried about our soldiers' fighting and fighting will, and their ideological awareness is absolutely reliable. It's just that homesickness is still a common human relationship. It's difficult for us to stay with our family for a long time, so I have some ideas.

First, we will develop a system for family members to visit relatives, so that the wives and children of soldiers stationed far away from their hometowns can go to the garrison site to accompany the soldiers to live with them for one or two months, and the cost shall be borne by the army.

Secondly, we can also slightly improve the family leave system. The further away from our hometown, the longer the family leave time, and the rotation system between each other requires some calculations to make it smoother.

Third, it is also a relatively important point. I want to implement the rotational garrison system of the army. After an army has been stationed in one place for a long time, it will be stationed in another place, to the mainland, and to a place closer to their hometown to visit relatives. What do you think?"

Su Yonglin, Zhang Yuejing and Zhao Yucheng initially explained their views on these issues, and they were agreed by both.

They also believe that long-term soldiers will have some psychological problems in places far away from their hometowns, so it is worth paying attention to.

"It's okay for the Seventh Corps. The main people's hometowns are all in Jiangxi Province. Not long after they left their hometown, their thoughts and emotions should not be very strong. However, the main combatants of the First Corps are all in the Central Plains. They are in Shandong and Henan, and they are indeed far away from home. If there is a specific implementation of family leave, please start with the First Corps."

Zhang Yuejing hoped to seek some benefits for his subordinates, and Su Yonglin also recognized this suggestion. The First Corps did work hard and contribute greatly, and was mostly composed of veterans of the Restoration Army. His hometown was indeed far away from Lingnan.

However, the most important thing in this system is not the soldiers' family leave, but the rotation of the army. No matter what army it is, it will inevitably contact some people or groups in the local area after being stationed in one place or fighting for a long time.

Whether it is emotional or economic connection, it is very unfavorable for the army.

The longer the station is, the closer the connection is. If the court wants to move them, it means that the interests of more people will be affected, and the greater the obstacles will be. Once something is wrong, it will be warlordization.

At that time, if a coffee cup worth a thousand dollars per one, a goat worth a few hundred thousand dollars per one can be tossed out, then something will be a big deal.

So at this moment when the world has not yet been settled, Su Yonglin must set the rules in advance.

After these things were said, Su Yonglin began to talk about some of the current things.

"There is no abnormal movement in the Li family in Nanyue at present, but I think we are prepared for any trouble and it is necessary to prepare for the war in advance."

Zhang Yuejing had no opinion. Anyway, this battle had nothing to do with him, and he had something else to do.

However, Zhao Yucheng thinks this matter is worth discussing.

"Does the Li family in Nanyue dare to violate the majesty of the Ming Dynasty?"

"Compared with the Song State back then, Nanyue is still a weaker side, but they still invaded Guangdong and Guangxi many times. It can be seen that the Li Dynasty has quite an idea of ​​Guangdong and Guangxi, and lions fight rabbits and do their best. We must not relax."

As he said that, Su Yonglin looked at the Danan Pass under the sunset and slowly said, "Dannan Pass has not been repaired for a long time. I think it is necessary to repair it. We can also place our artillery at the Danan Pass to enhance defensive firepower in case of emergency."

Although Zhao Yucheng did not think from the bottom of his heart that the Li Dynasty in the South Vietnam had the courage to invade the borders of the Ming Dynasty, since Su Yonglin said it, he would do what he wanted.

He is used to this.

He began to arrange troops to repair the city of Dananguan, and according to Su Yonglin's suggestion, he arranged artillery on the city of Guancheng and some dangerous places to enhance the defense of Dananguan.

Zhang Yuejing soon left with the army and went to other places to do business, while Su Yonglin took a look at the captured Southern Song bureaucrats and landlords.

Especially the Southern Confucius Sect.
