In their position, the power is not too small, but they are still in charge of some things and do not have the power to make decisions on the spot.

"Quickly, quickly, go to Langjun's house in the south of the city!"

After leaving the captain's mansion, I turned around to find the person who could make the decision. Suddenly, the streets were filled with chaos.

Zhang Xingyi turned through the first gate, instead of going to the Secretariat, but continued through the second gate and entered the backyard.

As soon as no one outside could see her, she immediately picked up her skirt and ran all the way. How could she still look as steady as she did in the meeting hall?

"Sister, sister!"

Guan Ji was sitting in a big room, drawing on the map with a pen.

Next to the large table with the map spread out, there is also a large sand table.

Centered on the miniature Longshan Mountain, it runs from the Weishui River in the south to Chencang Road, then to Guanlong Avenue, and finally to Huating Road in the north.

There are five or six roads, large and small, and the most critical strongholds, such as Linwei, Lueyang, Jieting, Longguan, etc., are all clearly marked.

Even the terrain has been restored as much as possible.

It can be seen that this extremely fine sand table took a lot of time, manpower and material resources to make.

When Guan Ji heard Zhang Xingyi's cry, she didn't look back, but just warned: "Keep it down, Shuangshuang and Ah Chong have just fallen asleep."

Hearing this, Zhang Xingyi looked at the inner room separated by a screen, stuck out his tongue, then stood on tiptoes and walked softly to Guan Ji:

"Sister, it's done."

Although Zhang Xingyi's words were a bit confusing, Guan Ji understood them.

She finally put down the charcoal pen in her hand, turned around, and raised her eyebrows:

"It's done so quickly?"

Zhang Xingyi nodded repeatedly, with a smile on his face as if he was asking for credit:

"Although we haven't calculated the statistics yet, looking at the looks on those people's faces, I think we can collect a lot of money and food in the future."

After hearing this, Guan Ji breathed a sigh of relief with a smile on her face:

"Very good!"

Then he said to Zhang Xingyi, "Fortunately, I have you in this house, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do about the food issue."

Although the Huqiang Xiaowei Mansion has been on the right track in the past two years, the food reserves are still weak after all.

After all, there was a severe drought at the beginning, then they tried to win over the Qiang and Hu, and finally they marched into Longxi. The battle for Jincheng was never stable for a year.

The money and food were scattered like water.

That is to say, Alang has built a solid foundation over the years to be able to support the palace of Protecting the Qiang Colonel.

If it were anyone else, how could he be so capable?

After conquering Jincheng, I originally thought I would be more stable this year, but I didn't expect to encounter this problem again.

It's August now, and the food hasn't been fully stocked yet. If we really want to start another war, this food is the first priority.

Without food, the army cannot move.

What's more, compared to a well-prepared battle such as the recapture of Longxi Jincheng, this time we faced hundreds of thousands to two hundred thousand Cao thieves in Guanzhong.

Moreover, the march is a long way, and we have to climb mountains. If there is really going to be a fight, the food preparations for the Qiang Colonel's Mansion will definitely not be enough.

Who knows what the fight will look like?

Unfortunately, Feng Yong was not around at this time, so Guan Ji was not inferior to others in handling military affairs.

But when it comes to such difficult government affairs, they are a little helpless.

Now that I heard that Zhang Xingyi had solved some of the food problems, naturally he was not hesitant to praise him.

Zhang Xingyi chuckled: "I am the secretary of the Qiang Colonel's Mansion. This kind of thing is my duty."

Guan Ji rubbed her head as a sign of praise.

Zhang Xingyi pouted in protest and leaned over to look at the map, "Sister, are you studying military affairs?"

Guan Ji nodded, picked up the pen again, and drew across Yacheng, Chencang, Qixian, and even Yuezhi City, Chang'an, etc. on the east side of Longshan.

Finally, he pointed to Anding County and said thoughtfully: "The movements of Cao's thieves are unknown. I'm wondering whether they want to attack Hanzhong or Longshan."

Zhang Xingyi looked at the symbols marked by Guan Ji on the map and blinked, trying hard to understand what they meant.

In the end, I gave up and turned to the sand table.

"Didn't you say that Cao Cao wanted to attack Hanzhong?"

Guan Ji shook her head: "It's just a possibility. It's not confirmed yet. We have to wait for news from Hanzhong."

"And even if they want to attack Hanzhong, they will definitely increase their troops on the Longshan side to prevent Longyou from diving into Guanzhong."

"What's more," Guan Ji looked at the map, and the pen in her hand unconsciously scratched around the various cities in the east of Longshan, with a gleam in her eyes.

"If Cao Cao really wants to attack Hanzhong with all his strength, we may not have a chance to test An Ding."

Zhang Xingyi's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, "Sister, do you want to attack Anding County?"

"It is too difficult to travel from the Weishui River to Chencang, and the maximum number of soldiers is only five thousand. And from Guanlong Avenue to Qixian County, it is a place heavily defended by Cao Cao's thieves."

"Only Xiaoguan can go south as well as west, which is the most convenient. What's more, Anding County is located above Chang'an, so you can go down by the river, and Chang'an can be reached below Anding."

As Guan Ji spoke, her eyes fell on Xiao Guan involuntarily:

"Even if it is difficult to get to Qian County in the south, Yuezhi City may not have no chance. After all, Yang Tiao was the most familiar with Yuezhi City."

"Xiaoguan and Yuezhi City echo each other. If Yuezhi City had not been lost, the Cao thieves would have had at least 30,000 to 50,000 troops stationed in Anding. It's just a pity..."

At that time, Yang Tiao used the name of the Han Dynasty to threaten the thieves' self-respect and was unwilling to let Zhao Guang send troops into the city.

However, his ragtag group was attacked by Cao's thieves at night, Yuezhi City was lost, and Xiao Guan lost his power.

While listening to Guan Ji's analysis, Zhang Xingyi lay on the sand table and searched for a long time before finding Yuezhi City. She fell into deep thought and said for a long time:

"Sister, this Yuezhi City was originally set aside by the Han Dynasty for the Hu people to live in. To the north is the place where the Hu people live in the desert."

"In the past two years, I heard that the reputation of brother Zhang family has spread over there. If we send someone over to persuade them to respond in the north, do you think it will be effective?"

Guan Ji looked at the terrain and shook her head:

"Coming from the north, we have to climb mountains and cross rivers. I'm afraid it will be difficult. Besides, even if Alang's reputation has spread over there, how can the barbarians there not be obedient if they don't get any benefits?"

As to why the Longyou Hu people were so tame, Guan Ji naturally felt like a mirror.

That is based on letting them get benefits, or at least see hope.

The desert to the north of Yuezhi City is really too far away from Longyou.

But when it comes to matters in the military, even ten Zhang Xingyi cannot defeat Guan Ji.

But when it comes to political intrigue, even the ten Guan Jis cannot be compared to Zhang Xingyi.

I saw Secretary Zhang rolling his eyes, "I heard that in the past two years, someone has explored the way to the north. If it can bring some benefits to those families, I may not be able to give it a try."

"Um?"

When Guan Ji heard this, she looked at Zhang Xingyi.

Zhang Xingyi narrowed her eyes. This was her expression when she was calculating time. She raised her head slightly:
Chapter completed!
