Chapter 578: It's Not Easy


Officials can't get used to it, or the more they get used to it, the more bastards they become.

Liu Yan not only doesn't want to get used to Lu Ru, but also has the same thoughts for anyone.

He knew that now was the best time to destroy Zhang's Liangguo, and in the face of Xu Zheng's dead face and wanting to lead the army to a veto, he planned to let Xie An, who was closest to Zhang's Liangguo, take action.

"Xie Aitun still has some hands in Rouran Mountain, but the troops don't need so much."

Liu Yan was also unable to turn the corner, and he still had some clue about the gains and losses of this in-depth grassland operation: "Leave more than 10,000 left, and the Praetorian Guards will call back." ” It should be said that this time the goal of going deep into the grassland was still achieved, although it only captured Zhang Chonghua alive and let Tuoba Shi Yijian, Murong Jun, and Fu Hong escape, but it destroyed the alliance of the kings, and also found out the details of the Rouran people.

The matter on Rouran's side can be put aside first, and whether or not Bati can be used by the Han State needs to be fought for.

If Rou Ran can respond from the north, it will certainly be beneficial for the Han State to conquer the Tuoba Dynasty and Murong Yan Kingdom, and it depends on whether Xie Ai has the ability to persuade Bati.

Zhang Chonghua was captured, and Zhang's Liangguo fell into a chaotic situation of leaderlessness, and the Han State next planned to take three steps. can make Zhang Chonghua succumb, and then order the Zhang Liangguo to surrender, this is of course the most ideal.

Zhang Chonghua can't be allowed to succumb, and Han Guo sent fake news to Zhang's Liangguo in the name of Zhang Chonghua that he had yielded, and the effect was whatever effect it could achieve.

The second is to instigate the ambitions of Zhang Zuo and Zhang Tianxi, at least to plunge Zhang's Liangguo into civil strife.

The basis of everything is to prepare for the conquest of the Han army, and what kind of fruits can be harvested depends on force.

Xie Ai, who was located in Guanzhong, did not have many troops at hand, a standing army plus 50,000 county soldiers, and basically relied on the Weishui line in Qinzhou as a basis for garrison.

Xu Zheng needs to figure out one thing: "Your Majesty, is the Praetorian Guard calling back to the center, or" Xie An went on the defensive with the limited forces at hand, facing at least 50,000 Zhang's Liang army and 130,000 multi-ethnic coalition troops led by the Di people.

It was Zhang Zuo who commanded Zhang's Liang army to invade Guanzhong, and the deputy general was Zhang Chong.

Most of this batch of Zhang's Liang army belonged to the original Jincheng garrison army, and the rest were recalled from the Western Regions.

Jincheng, as the military town of Zhang's Liangguo in the east, should not be much worse than the troops that can bear the garrison, they have been fighting with Liu Yao's former Zhao, Shi Le's Hou Zhao, and Shi Hu's Hou Zhao for a long time, and they have always defended Jincheng as impregnable.

The group of Zhang's Liang troops that Zhang Chonghua transferred back from the Western Regions, they have been in the Western Regions for a long time to conquer and fight in the West, since they can conquer and open up most of the Western Regions for the Zhang's Liang Kingdom, their combat effectiveness will definitely not be low.

Fu Hong is currently missing from the Han State, and the person who commands the Hu coalition army in Guanzhong is Fu Hong's fourth son, Fu Xiong.

The multi-ethnic coalition army with Fu Xiong as the commander, the main helpers are of course the Di people, and some Qiang people are also deeply used, and the Hu people who were gathered are basically suffering from the Han state, especially the Qiang people are full of energy to avenge Yao Yizhong.

Overall, Xie Ai's ability to stabilize the front with far fewer troops than the enemy army showed the center his military talent, but holding the line with limited forces does not mean that he can counterattack with far fewer troops than the enemy.

"The Battle of Yanmen is over, and the Battle of Youzhou has also stalled" Xu Zheng spread his hands and said, "It doesn't mean that there are troops to reinforce Xie An." ” If we count according to the era, it is now the autumn of 347 A.D., and the fifth year of Yuan Shuo.

Since the beginning of the third year of Yuan Shuo, the territory of the Han Kingdom is expanding every day, if you really want to compare, the territory of the Han Kingdom has recovered to the point that it is similar to that of the Western Jin Dynasty, and it has a large territory in the southwest less than the Western Jin Dynasty, and at the same time lacks the territory west of Qinzhou in Guanzhong.

I can't transfer the map now.,Or the honor will send the map.。

In just two or three years, the territory of the Han State has expanded several times, but the territory is not conquered by the army.

Let's put it this way, the Han State now has seven standing cavalry corps and six infantry corps.

Six of the cavalry corps were aimed at Tuoba Dai and Murong Yan, and one was under Xie An.

However, two of the infantry army were under Huan Wen's tent, one was used as an emergency infantry army to mobilize and suppress the rebellion, and the rest were naturally in the Tuoba Dynasty and Murong Yan Kingdom battlefields.

The total number of soldiers in the counties and counties serving at the same time in the country was about 500,000, of which more than 300,000 were transferred to the northern front, 50,000 were used under the Huanwen account, and the rest were in various states and counties.

Don't look at the total strength of the Han State now, there are more than 700,000 troops, but the Han army also has many fronts, and there is no shortage of garrisons in the country, and there will be losses in the battle, so it is really impossible to draw many troops to Xie An.

If you want to destroy Zhang's Liangguo, it's one thing to make preparations before the action, and if you really start the operation, you must be fast, ruthless, and accurate, and after the war breaks out, you should maintain rapid progress, and you must not let Zhang's Liangguo have a chance to breathe, or you will lose the best opportunity.

According to the center's previous discussion, the Praetorian Guard should be transferred back to the center after completing the combat mission deep into the grassland, and then be put into the battlefield against Murong Yanguo, but the current situation needs to be changed.

"The area where Murong Xianbei is located has been cold for a long time, and in recent years, the climate has tended to be early in winter and late in spring, and the time suitable for combat is less than four months."

Xu is the Tai Lieutenant, he didn't suggest who would come, so he said: "Since now is the perfect time to destroy Xiliang, it is better to transfer the Praetorian Guard to Xie An's command." ” The Praetorian Guards are notoriously capable of fighting, and the climate requirements for combat are not so high, Xu Zheng really thinks that the climate should not be warmer, and he should ignore the bitter cold, so he will directly cook Zhang's Liangguo in the late autumn and winter of this year.

Liu Yan thought about it carefully, and finally looked at Ji Chang.

"This year's autumn harvest is complete."

Of course, Ji Chang knew what Liu Yan meant when he saw it, and immediately said, "It is completely possible to support the opening up of the battlefield in Xiliang." ” The war against the Tuoba Dynasty and Murong Yan will be temporarily slowed down due to the influence of the climate, and the consumption of grain and straw will be greatly reduced when the army is in a non-war state, which can be relieved for the Han State that has received grain but is still generally short of grain.

"Southwest" Liu Yan thought of the war on the Southwest Peninsula, and when he saw that the discussion had already reached a result, he diverted the topic: "What is the situation?"

At the beginning of the fourth year of Yuan Shuo, the Han army landed in Jiaozhi and launched an invasion of Linyi, and the Han army now fought with Linyi several times on the southern side of Japan, and later made a full landing on the coastline, forcing Linyi to abandon the coastline and stick to the interior.

The regular army of the Han State had recovered the old land that Lin Yi had previously looted from the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and after reaping the first fruits, there was no good way to cut off the coastline and inland mountains, so the regular army temporarily died down and opened the door to release many families.

"The sons have crossed the mountains and entered the forest."

Yu Yi came to participate in the discussion, most of the time with ears and no mouth, of course he was happy to have the opportunity to show his presence: "The loss is a bit big, but the gain is also good." ” Yu Yi's so-called over, it is really a painstaking climb over the mountains, there are few people who are lost in the fight, but there are many people who die from the natural environment such as poisonous insects and miasma.

The armies of the various families were released, and they belonged to the family as much land they had laid on the other side of the mountain, and even if it was not owned by the family, they could contribute to the country in exchange for titles and rewards, and they were desperate to make a difference.

How great a person's desire is, how resolute the determination of the officer will be, if it is said to be with great determination to break into the deep mountains and dense forests, waiting to go in, even if it is regretted, it is too difficult to move forward and unwilling to retreat, and it can only be hard to continue to move forward.

"Oh" Liu Yan really didn't pay much attention to the movements of the various families, and asked with great interest: "Tell me, what is the good harvest." ” Yu Yi is the public spokesperson of each family in the center, which Liu Yan expressly allows.

The reason why he became an official in the Han Kingdom was to a large extent to guarantee the development of various families in the Southwest Peninsula, and since Liu Yan was interested in knowing, he would naturally work hard to introduce it.

If you want to say that the most things that each family has gained after going through thousands of hardships to cross the mountains and mountains, it should be to find out the weather in the southwest peninsula, of course, and to open up the path, and the experience of dealing with poisonous insects and the like is also accumulated enough.

They went deep into the interior, crossed the mountains and did not encounter too many wild people, and re-entered the flat land to find bananas everywhere, and monkeys and elephants were everywhere.

"Ha" Xu Zhengle said: "What do you eat for three meals?"

Yu Yi said, "Banana fruit." ” By the way, people living north of the Yangtze River are really unfamiliar with bananas.

Then, bananas are now indeed called banana fruits.

"There's no way to do it, it rains at both ends of three days, especially in the autumn and it is a long rainy season, and the dry food I carried was soaked in water and quickly rancid, and it happened that it was the season when the banana fruit was ripe."

Yu Yi's face was not good-looking when he spoke: "I have eaten too many banana fruits, and the children have more serious diarrhea, so they can be sent back to Jiaozhi for treatment and recuperation, and they can also pick up their lives." ” What if it can't be sent back to the area controlled by the Han army in time, the answer can be obtained from Yu Yi's ugly face.

Liu Yan knew very well what the situation was on the Southwest Peninsula.

Before he crossed over, he didn't watch some extreme survival shows, compared with some foreign survival shows, some domestic variety shows began to play survival challenges, which is simply child's play.

Compared with some foreign survival programs, there are really no modern tools to survive in the wild, especially to survive in an extremely primitive place like the Southwest Peninsula, fighting with the sky, the earth, and anything, it takes more than courage.

What kind of society is it now, there are not so many scientific and technological products in modern times, with the development of Chinese civilization, at least the flint has been made, but at least dry firewood is needed to make a fire, the problem is that there will be a rain from time to time on the southwest peninsula, and it is really not easy to get dry firewood.

The trouble for people in the Southwest Peninsula, especially for people who are not used to being wet and humid all the time, is that it is difficult to stay dry, which is fatal, and people with slightly weaker physical fitness cannot stay dry, and getting sick is a matter of minutes.

Therefore, for the armed forces of all families, it is excellent not to get sick, whether they can bear it when they are sick is the key, or whether they can get timely and effective treatment is a matter of vital importance to human life.

"The price is very high" Yu Yi's face was gloomy at first, and he probably didn't expect that it would be so difficult to open up the southwest, and then he changed his expression to sacrifice and gain, and said: "That side is indeed suitable for farming, and it is not a problem to grow three or four times a year."

In addition to grain, the local minerals are very rich, only two open-pit gold mines have been found, and there are gems and fragrant wood everywhere. ” Under the premise of sufficient benefits, sacrifice is of course acceptable, especially the sacrifice of most of the people is a lowly servant of the family, they have paid and gained, but they are not willing to be taken up by the dynasty for those gains.

"Dog's head gold and jadeite or something" Liu Yan was actually a little unsure, so he asked: "I found those things, do you have the labor to develop them?"

What Liu Yan knows is that there are not too many gold mines in the southwest, but on the other side of the mountain range, there is a large silver mine and several large coal mines, and there are even iron ore and copper mines that can be counted in Asia, among which the coal mines have anthracite coal, which is unique in Asia.

Anthracite may not be a big deal now, but in the age of steam, steam turbines have been developed, and ships have been equipped with steam drives, anthracite is a very precious strategic material.

You must know one thing deeply, France, which occupies the southwest peninsula, because they have anthracite coal mines in their hands, but they can't do it in Europa, and their faces make the first power on the earth a little unbearable.

"The minister has obtained the paperwork, and he is already dredging the Jiudejiu River, if this river across the mountain range can be used" Yu Yi's answer was somewhat unanswered, but the reason was there: "With today's dependence, transportation is the lifeblood." ” The so-called Jiude River, the word "De" is actually to remove the "彳" next to the double and replace it with three points of water, but the simplified Chinese character has long been gone.

This naming should be traced back to the Western Han Dynasty, after all, the Chinese Miao descendants were first pioneered to this place in the Western Han Dynasty, and some names were of course named when they were pioneered.

"The outnumbered will let the local garrison cooperate."

Liu Yan didn't mean to be perfunctory, and added cautiously: "If there are other needs, Yu Qing can also speak." ” Yu Yi immediately saluted, and his face was rarely moved.

For Liu Yan, the continuous development of the Han Kingdom is to open up the territory, but how can it not be that the living space of the nation has been expanded, and anyone who opens up and explores outward, he will strongly support it, how far can he open up is one thing, and the adventurous spirit of the nation can be cultivated, which is definitely a great cause for the descendants of the present generation
