"So we should not only not increase troops, but also reduce the defenders near Yanshan to less than 40,000.

This can greatly reduce the pressure for the logistics department. We should not add more water and more water.

Instead, we should focus on how to use the minimum force and expenses to firmly defend this Yanshan defense line!”

When this person said this, Shi Tianze looked at Shen Mo in surprise!... Of course, he knew that the combat staff at the meeting were all young people around the age of 20, and they were a group of reserve forces being cultivated in Shen Mo's army.

But even these young and low-level officers thought about the problem, they had a vision and mind that only a rank-in-law official had! In other words, this must be included in the Mongolian army, and they were thinking about the problem that only King Bolu of the Grand Tutor would have thought of! But this young man said in one word that the Yanshan Mountains were arranged under heavy troops, and over time, it would cause serious consumption of national use.

This shows that this young man can really be called long-term vision and insightful.

After hearing this, Shen Mo raised his eyebrows, and then signaled Shi Tianze to continue listening.

At this time, another person stood up and said, "I think what Lao Yu said is indeed reasonable."

"The reason why the Yanshan Mountains were thrown away in the hands of the Jin people was because the Jin people only knew to keep the blindly defending.

They dullly displayed the soldiers on the Yanshan line, and even wanted to build a willow wall that was exhausted and damaged, so as to completely seal the Mongolians."

"You can think about it, what situation will this cause?

Facing this line of defense, the Mongolians can choose a point to break through with all their strength at any time."

"Before the attack, the Jin defenders did not receive any warnings, nor did they block and interfere with the enemy's advance.

In other words, no matter how heavy the shield is, the other person concentrates his efforts on attacking him with a spear, which is enough to pierce him!"

"What about your opinion?"

At this time, Li Muyuan said lightly: "Did I ask you to state the problem?

Tell me the solution, this is the military rules of our previous battalions!”

"Of course I have a plan!"

The young staff officer who only listened to the speech said: "We should set up a small number of elite troops in the Yanshan Mountains to defend, and at the same time release a large number of sentries to monitor the movements of the Mongolian troops at any time, so as to know which point they are going to attack... Listen to me!"

When this person talked about this, he only heard the sound of tables, chairs, benches and benches in the house. Several staff officers around seemed to have caught the loophole in his words and were about to refute.

I saw the man hurriedly continuing: "My solution is to set up Rangers outside the pass as early warning, and a general reserve team should be left inside the pass, ready to support key points in all places at any time."

"In this way, there will be no situation like the Jin Kingdom, with 700,000 or 800,000 troops arranged on this line of defense.

However, once the war started, only 50,000 or 60,000 people at one of the important barriers were attacked by the Mongolian army.

But the other troops didn't dare to move, so they could only do it there!"

"In other words, I just need to leave a reserve team of 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. I will block wherever there is danger... that's fine?"

… “Don’t forget that the Mongolian army is best at vocalizing and attacking the world, and their movement speed is very fast.”

At this time, some other people had already raised rebuttals in the house.

They just heard them say verbally: "At that time, this reserve team will be tempted by the Mongolian army, and will be moved back and forth, and will be exhausted in Yanshan... What will you do then?"

"That's better than the heavy army arrangement. One point being attacked is not strong enough and the others are doing nothing!"

At this time, the staff adviser who made the suggestion began to refute loudly again.

Looking at the room, there was a quarrel.

… “The solution is often caused by these quarrels.”

At this time, Shen Mo took advantage of the chaos in the room and laughed at Shi Tianze: "The more you argue, the more you become clearer. If these children can't argue, they will go to the sand table to conduct actual deductions. Often, they will come up with the most reliable method after a few times."

"Then these people will brainstorm and improve this best method to the best level... This is the function of the Tongzhou Military General Staff."

Speaking of this, Shen Mo raised his eyebrows happily.

Looking at him, he was very proud of the expression of the piglet he raised when he had grown up to be able to eat cabbage everywhere.

Seeing the commander's appearance, Shi Tianze couldn't help but laugh, but at the same time, he was secretly shocked.

If we talk about the qualities reflected in these children, Shi Tianze really opened his horizons.

At this moment, he really wanted to stuff both of his sons into this conference room.

Even if they are allowed to listen here every day, under such influence, it will not be difficult to become a famous general in the future!... In fact, the general staff system set up by Shen Mo is a very complete military system evolved after the baptism of war in later generations.

Its core is what Zhuge Liang, a master of military strategy during the Three Kingdoms period, said in "Teaching and Military Commander and Military Commander": "Those who participate in the office gather together to think about the whole world will benefit the people."

It was this sentence that evolved into the idiom "branching ideas" in later generations.

Such ideas are reflected in the use of troops, which has completely changed the situation of war.

Originally, in ancient times, it was entirely up to the generals' personal abilities to fight.

A person's wisdom is ultimately limited, and it will inevitably lead to omissions and mistakes.

On the contrary, the General Staff system has gathered the wisdom of many people, making it difficult for the army to be destroyed by a person's mistakes.

As for these young staff members, they are elite talents carefully cultivated by Shen Mo.

In Shen Mo's hands, the training of military talents has never stopped.

A three-level training system has even been formed in total.

The first level here is of course Shen Mo's sharp blade camp.

This small military academy was taught by Shen Mo at the beginning, and the first session was a small military academy composed of only twenty or thirty students. Now it has become a junior college for studying military affairs.

After the first phase of the Blade Camp, Shen Mo no longer taught the students from beginning to end, but occasionally played guest appearances in the military academy.

After the third phase of the Little Blade Camp, their recruitment target was not only based on the orphans rescued by Shen Mo, but also selected children of seven or eight years of age from the people, and recruited them to military academy for systematic training and learning.

Of course, since these children also have families and parents, they no longer have their names given by Shen Mo as Tianjiao Period, just like the first period of Tianjiao, but instead use their own real names.

So when these children are on the battlefield and become young officers or combat staff, they have actually gone through a long period of professional military study.
