According to Li Jun's estimate, the prince's wedding was a huge matter.

Including all kinds of pre-preparations, it is impossible to actually hold it in less than three to five months.

Taking advantage of this rare gap, he can show his strengths with confidence and boldness.

After all, he also fulfilled Wu Sansi's wish to accept the Wu family's daughter as his concubine and expressed his willingness to give in.

Even if Wu Sansi was dissatisfied with him, he would have to wait until he held his wedding before he could harm him.

Li Jun won time again.

Time, time is simply too precious.

This is true in the court, and even more so on the battlefield.

News on the border gradually came back to Luoyang through Wuming's shop.

Li Jun had noticed that Tubo intended to cooperate with the Turks before.

But he didn't expect that they would unite so quickly.

According to the news from Du Rao, the Turkic Mo Chuan Khan had already begun to increase troops towards Dingzhou.

He intends to form a striking force with the Tubo army.

Is there still a way out for my Tang Dynasty?

Fortunately, Li Jun traveled over at this time and brought new weapons and new military theories, otherwise the Tang Dynasty would be in danger!

A map was also placed in front of Li Jun and Yao Kui. Although the accuracy was better than that used by the Turks, it was not much better.

The territory of the Tang Dynasty was divided into several major prefectures and counties and ten interviews and disposal commanders in this picture.

Fortunately, in the era of Emperor Zhongzong of Tang, the border military governor system that harmed the world had not yet become a disaster.

The rough map of the Tang Dynasty mark and the modern and precisely measured map coincided in Li Jun's head.

He pointed to Ganzhou and said to Yao Kui: "We have to start from here."

Since Ganzhou in ancient times belonged to the modern Gansu territory, this area has always been a place that must be fought for by military strategists with its unique geographical location.

The continuous mountains create its narrow and long terrain.

If we can create a world of sky in this area, the power of the Tang army will be further consolidated.

But, it's difficult!

This area is full of people and difficult to manage.

In addition, the terrain is rugged, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it has always been very difficult for the Middle-Turkish army to conquer and effectively manage it.

And Ganzhou was another place where the Tang Dynasty had to compete for protection.

There are great ranches with a vast area.

The water and plants are abundant. Only in Ganzhou, there were ten large horse farms in the Tang Dynasty. Under them, there were dozens of small horse prisons.

In addition, Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi once actively encouraged herdsmen to raise horses by themselves, and they were acquired by the government.

In this way, there were as many as 20,000 war horses in Ganzhou alone.

In today's era, war horses are combat power.

And horse farms are life.

After the Anshi Rebellion, the territory of the Tang Dynasty was repeatedly occupied by Tubo and Turks, and it was also because the horse farm was lost, the war horses withered, and they were unable to fight against the grassland.

As the saying goes, strong soldiers and horses are strong.

Before the war started, Li Jun first thought of the issue of logistics supply.

Let the soldiers and war horses have enough food.

"How many military warehouses are there in Ganzhou?"

"Only one!"

Yao Kui changed the map of Longyou Road, and this one became more detailed.

In the center of Ganzhou, there is indeed a granary named Yongfu Cang.

This is not enough.

Li Jun knew that during Li Xian's period, Yongfu Cang was already a regular military Cang.

His grain storage level is about tens of thousands of tons of grain. Although it seems to be a lot, according to the information provided by Yao Kui.

The granary in Ganzhou is also responsible for supplying nearby Guazhou and Liangzhou.

Grain reserves are often tight, and during the Wu Zetian period, memorials have systematically explained this matter.

In the Zetian era, the situation reported by the inspectors sent by the imperial court to the local area showed that although the grain storage capacity of Ganzhou was several times larger than during the Zhenguan period.

However, it is still often not enough to make ends meet.

This involves many problems.

There is a relationship of insufficient food production and frequent wars.

Since Emperor Gaozong's era, the Tang Dynasty has managed more land, towns and more conflicts with foreign races in the northwest region.

The military warehouse worked hard to store grain all year round, but could not resist the consumption of wars that could be fought at any time.

The inspector found that although the amount of grain storage in Yongfu Warehouse in Ganzhou was considerable, it met the requirements of the court.

But a large part of this grain does not come from local military farms in Ganzhou.

Instead, it comes from cities and counties around Ganzhou, or even further away.

The warehouse closing was originally a reserve unit established by major prefectures and counties to stabilize the market price of grain. However, in order to cope with the heavy supply of military rations, the military warehouses in Ganzhou also began to retract nearby warehouse closing grains to make up for shortcomings.

In addition to war, there are also fewer grain growers.

Since its inception, the people who are mainly responsible for reclaiming fertile land near the military warehouse are not only ordinary farmers, but also border soldiers who are both military and agricultural.

These soldiers do not need to prepare their own rations, nor do they need to wait for the transport of the sanitary grain to be closed. They are all self-sufficient.

How much to plant, how much to harvest, part of it is used for your own use, part of it is hoarded.

This itself is a perfect military farming system, but by the Wu Zetian period, it had already exposed its shortcomings.

Ganzhou has vast land and countless fields to be reclaimed.

However, there are only a limited number of soldiers who can actually participate in the military farming industry, and the number is extremely short.

It is already very hard for soldiers to not only endure heavy military training but also cultivate the fields in daily life.

Once you go to the battlefield, you will inevitably suffer casualties.

After a while, fewer and fewer soldiers actually participated in grain cultivation.

Of course, during the Wu Zetian period, it is fortunate that no matter how difficult the situation is, the warehouse manager in charge of Yongfu warehouse still tried his best to keep the grain storage within a reasonable range.

But what about now?

His father Li Xian has a bad control over the government, and his mother Wu Zetian is not as good as his mother.

I don’t know how long it took for the granaries in various places to be verified.

Now, Tubo is ready to move and can only find a way to deal with it first.

Li Jun decided that after the war was over, he would definitely rectify the Tang Dynasty's grain reserve system.

"Your Highness, what should we do?"

Yao Kui saw that he had been staring at the map and looked worried, and hurriedly asked, maybe he could come up with an idea.

"If there is not enough food in the military warehouse, you can also put the grain in the charity warehouse first to relieve it."

"The grain in the charity warehouse cannot be moved!"

"Not only can't move, I will build a few more charity warehouses when I finish this battle."

The so-called charity warehouse, as the name suggests, is a granary built by the government to provide relief to the victims.

In ancient times, people had very low resistance to natural disasters. Generally speaking, there was a flood and plague, which was that hungry people were everywhere and hungry people ran everywhere.
