Chapter 658: The Impatience of the Big Guys


"Those fools, always clamoring for military spending, but they don't see the expansion of territory in a few years, and they don't see the threat of alien extinction.

The military can only use two standing armies, which is a heavy yoke for any military bigwig.

The two standing armies, that is, 30,000 soldiers, will have attached county and county soldiers, but the number of standing armies used is too small to do much at all, and the use of less than 100,000 troops is a small fight in the eyes of any military boss.

The current marquis of the Han Kingdom has only just reached double digits, and under the national policy of not being a marquis without military merits, there are many warriors who are eager for military merit and marquis.

The group of people who are already marquises, they don't think that a marquis can mess around, and there is either a prince at the top, or no one dislikes their fiefdoms no matter how big they are, the more households under their command are naturally the better.

How did the feudal and the household come about, of course, it will not be a person sitting at home, but a few brothers who catch the enemy and beat them for a while, and the more ruthless they go, the greater the credit, and the more generous the reward they get.

"What do you say that the big man is no longer a threat" Ran Min drank all the wine in the wine cup, slapped it heavily on the case, and the wine cup was directly broken: "If you want to say so, non-Han people, all of them are threats." ” Ran Min has been looking for books to read recently, especially history books.

The history books are divided into biography and national history, and the other is the emperor's book.

Not everyone can read those history books about emperors, and the same is true of national history, but the biography is not so particular.

The biography is the biography of famous ministers in history, and it is divided into official and non-official history.

Those who can leave a legacy in history are all heroes of the moment, either who have made great contributions to the country and the nation, or have had a profound impact on a major historical event.

Chen Sheng, as the first person to openly shout "The prince will have a kind of Xiangning", don't care that he has been brewing an incident for a long time, and he found an overdue demagogue to rebel together, which belongs to having a major impact on major historical events, and has his own biography.

In fact, according to Qin Law, there is a hierarchy in the punishment of overdue forced labor, which does not mean that you will be beheaded if you are overdue.

The Qin law stipulates how many days overdue the sentence is, how severe the punishment is, and how much flogging is carried out under the time limit, and there is really no provision that if you are overdue, you will be beheaded.

Therefore, Chen Sheng said that it was a kind of intimidation to be beheaded if the conscription expired, and he coerced the entourage to start an incident together.

The contribution to the country was affirmed by Zhang Liang and Han Xin, both of whom had people who specialized in the biography, Zhang Liang was the biography of the Marquis of Liu, and Han Xin was the biography of the Marquis of Huaiyin.

When writing the biography of Han Xin, Sima Qian must have been extremely troubled.

Han Xin was first canonized as the king of Qi, and then he was made into the king of Chu, among which there are too many black histories of the old Liu family, how can it become more black history of the Marquis of Huaiyin, how can it not avoid the fact that Han Xin laid down two-thirds of the territory for Liu Bang, let alone the fact that Han Xin made such a great contribution but had a tragic ending, resulting in too many vague and ominous places in the biography of the Marquis of Huaiyin, and tampering and embellishment are inevitable.

Because Liu Bang defeated the Xiang family, the name, the word feather, the historical definition of the Xiang family, especially the courtiers of the old Liu family, it is not too extravagant to be fair or anything.

In ancient times, not everyone could call the table, except for the elders and friends, it was a kind of contempt to call Xiang Yu directly, and later generations called those Western Chu overlords were called Xiang Yu, and even the official name was called Xiang Yu Benji, in fact, this is the biggest insult.

The Xiang Ji will be this Ji, that is the fact that the old Liu family can't change it, Liu Bang is divided into Han Zhongdi, and both sides are princes and kings during the hegemony period, so it must be this Ji instead of Liebiography, and Liechuan is a minister.

There are not too many legends that Ran Min can see, and there are only so many that can be passed on in the past, with the first Han being the most.

In fact, there are few that are worth writing about, and Ran Min's favorite are those biographies that have a history of bloody wars with foreign races, so they are the biography of Meng Tian and the biography of Li Mu.

"Pre-Qin, except for Zhuxia, they are all enemies, they are Rong people, Di people, Yi people, Zhu barbarians, and Zhu Yue."

Of course, Ran Min has not seen the relevant history of the Xia Dynasty and the Shang Dynasty, and there is no reason for them to be beheaded when digging graves in such an era, but there is no archaeology, but there are many related legends.

Regarding the records of the pre-Qin period, Ran Min has read part of the Zhou books, including the part where the Zhou family moved the capital under the persecution of foreign races: "Facts have proved that when you can eliminate all visible alien races to the point that none of them exist, you must not be soft." ” During the Western Zhou Dynasty, the princes and kings of the Zhou Dynasty were actually more obedient, and the kings of the Zhou Dynasty would order the princes and kings to dispatch troops from time to time to suppress and beat the surrounding foreign races.

The Western Zhou Dynasty was forced to move eastward, not that the princes and kings began to be disobedient, but to say that the "beacon fire drama princes" is a politically correct argument, and it should be that the binding force and influence of the Zhou family on the princes and kings have declined indefinitely.

Nation-to-nation confrontation is always fighting for living space, and if it is strong, it will seize more land for ethnic groups to multiply, and if it is weak, it will naturally lose its territory, reduce the living space of ethnic groups, and even be wiped out.

When it comes to farming nations in later generations, there will always be arguments that farming nations are not aggressive, defensive nations, sheep races, etc., but in fact, those are bullshit During the Xia Dynasty, the living space of Zhuxia was only a corner of the east part of the mountain, but to the Shang Dynasty began to march into the area called the Central Plains in later generations, and to the Zhou Dynasty due to the large-scale division of the feudal is to enter the development period, after the establishment of the Qin Empire is not to stop the pace of outward development, the Han Empire will be able to be used for agriculture of the surrounding land is to occupy a place.

To say that the farming nation is not aggressive, those Rong, Di, and Yi who have been wiped out to the point that there are no residues left will cry to death again even in the underworld, and the barbarians and Zhuyue, who have been suppressed until they can even take a breath, will inevitably shout that whoever defines it like that is blind.

Later generations always talked about the "fighting nation", and when it came to the "fighting nation", they would say that it was a woolly bear, probably because they had seen too many hairy bears and were prone to drunkenness when they drank too much If you want to say "fighting nation" or something, a person who has stood in the forest of the world for thousands of years has not been destroyed, has gone through countless bloody battles from a corner of the land, and has played a hegemonic position, and the civilization has been at the top of the world for a long time, Zhuxia is more qualified than any other nation to say that he is a fighting nation It's not nonsense, since the existence of Zhuxia, there have been countless races destroyed, and although there are twists and turns, they have been passed down.

There has been countless Roman countries and ethnic exterminations, only the Italian Zhang Guan Li Dai, who is not a Roman, has actually been lying in a coffin.

History is not only the foundation, even if it is slightly backward, it can be spurred under the glorious deeds of the ancestors of the past dynasties, and soon re-establish itself at the peak of the world's nations.

Ran Min read the history books and felt that he had risen to another level, and he wanted to show off when he seized the opportunity: "No one in Zhuxia is the first warrior who disagrees, but he is a big husband who knows the threat of alien races."

The first warrior of Zhuxia that Ran Min said is really not Meng Tian, he is talking about Di Xin.

Di Xin is the king of the late Shang Dynasty who was defined as the "King of Zhou" by the Zhou Dynasty, but he is really not as unbearable as defined by the Zhou Dynasty.

After he succeeded to the throne, he attached great importance to the expansion of territory, sent troops to attack Dongyi Zhu, conquered Li in the west, and expanded the territory to the later generations of Shan1 Dong, An1 Hui, Jiang 1 Su, Zhejiang 1 Jiang and Fu 1 Jianhai, which was more ruthless than the most crazy Wuding before.

The most pertinent evaluation of Di Xin is "Unified Shenzhou Zhao", but Di Xin was hacked as a "tyrant" by the Zhou family and has been hacked for 3,000 years.

Even Taizu rehabilitated Emperor Xin, and the sentence "It is wrong to regard King Xu, Qin Shi Huang, and Cao Cao as bad people, but in fact, King Zhou is a very capable person who can write and martial arts."

But it is clearly written on Mao Xuan.

After the king was defeated, Di Xin mobilized all his troops to the border to fight with foreign races, but there were princes and kings at home who rebelled.

Ji Zhou gained the right to rule, and in order to commend his correctness, he was not allowed to put Di Xin to death.

In fact, the system that can be hacked is the system, that is, slavery, the problem is that Ji Zhou himself is also a slave, which is very embarrassing, so it doesn't matter what kind of person Di Xin is, it's right to be black in death anyway.

"Such a person" Huan Wen knows history better than Ran Min, and seeing that Ran Min has begun to ignore nonsense, he nodded: "There is a beginning emperor." ” During the reign of Emperor Sin, the army was mostly fighting against foreign tribes on the frontier, and only a very small number of troops were left in the hinterland.

After the First Emperor ruled the world, the vast majority of the army was also fighting bloody battles with foreign races on the frontier, and the hinterland was led by a small number of Qin people to lead the conscripts of the six countries.

What Huan Wen said was that the army fought bloody battles with foreign races on the border, and there was no time to mobilize the domestic rebellion to quell the rebellion.

Ran Min's expression froze when he heard this, and he froze obviously.

Everyone knows that alien race is a threat, but the premise is that the alien race can be stable internally, or the alien race is caught and killed, but the internal rebellion has subverted the country, and how much has been done to open up the living space of the nation, and it will be smeared by no bottom line, and no one can stand it.

With the "lessons from the past", all dynasties since the Qin Empire have basically arranged strong armies in the center and adopted a policy of strong cadres and weak branches.

When the central government does not move, even if there are border troops in the frontier, the number will not be large, resulting in loopholes in the defense line and constant invasion by foreign races.

Putting a strong army on the border to confront foreign races, no matter what the reason for the rebellion in the country, it happened in the Ming Dynasty after the Qin, and the Ming Dynasty also lost the country under the internal and external difficulties.

When it comes to reading, Huan Wen definitely reads more than Ran Min.

Knowledgeable people have a lot of ideas, and he is reminding Ran Min not to make stupid nonsense, such as advocating to Liu Yan that the side wall is thick and the hinterland is weak.

"The construction of internal affairs is a major matter, and it is also a thing that must be done."

Huan Wen was reasoning, which made Ran Min very unhappy to hear it, he said some reasons why it was necessary to develop internal affairs, but then he said from the perspective of a martial artist: "Stopping fighting for martial arts is not to strike the war and not to levy, but to fight until the enemy can't hold weapons."

The major affairs of the country are in the worship and fighting, and it is not advisable to use military force, but it is even more dangerous to forget the war.

Some people think that it is reasonable to stop at five standing armies. ” "Spray it."

Ran Min was full of encouragement: "What are you talking about here, go and spit on the prime minister and the others, use your reasoning to spray them down, and there will be fewer obstacles to convince the king." ” Huan Wencai was reluctant to talk nonsense, and explained: "The Han Dynasty is short of grain, and local output alone is bound to be insufficient, and it is not enough to take grain from the Indochina Peninsula.

When the general said that he went out to plunder, the king was already moved after hearing it.

However, we have to choose a target, and if we want to fight across the sea, we should always know how to go and how to fight. ” Most of them are people who have experienced bloody battles on land, even if Huan Wen understands water warfare, but it is also in inland rivers, and there is no understanding of naval warfare.

They heard Liu Yan talk about some of Ah San's history, the Peacock Dynasty has long been ancient, and what they noticed is that the navy over there has always been not weak.

It is relatively clear that there are no conditions for going to the Asan territory and taking the land, and that it is far more reliable to fight across the sea than to travel long distances by land, so they have to discuss the battle at sea, that is, no one can say anything.

To take the land route from the Central Plains to the Asan territory, one is the route of the plateau, and the other is to take the South Asian jungle.

The Han State included Bashu into the scope of rule, and Shu was connected to the plateau, but the problem was that the army could not go up on a large scale at all, and there were too few people who could adapt to the plateau climate, and less was equivalent to being unable to take a large-scale invasion.

It's hard to go up the plateau, and even if you find a route that can enter the territory of Asan, it doesn't seem to be of much use.

South Asia is not much more difficult than the plateau, the density of primeval jungles is amazing, there are mountains everywhere, and the most casualties in the past colonial casualties are not in the battle with monkeys, but in the natural environment.

The 100,000 troops marched in, and it is estimated that they have not yet set foot in the territory of Ah San, and they have suffered more than half of the casualties first.

After all, it is almost the only feasibility to invade the territory of Asan and take the sea route, but this is actually wrong, and it can also be invaded from the Western Regions from north to south, but from the Western Regions, you have to gnaw Kashmir first, and you have to gnaw all the way for hundreds of miles to hit the Ganges River Valley.

Therefore, with the goal of looting grain, it is really relatively reliable to take a cross-sea landing operation.

"It's definitely not wrong to find out the route first."

Xu Zheng had been listening silently, waiting for him to finally get to the point, and had to speak: "The strait has been discovered, but the route has not yet been figured out." ” Even if the route is clear, it doesn't mean that it can be passed, the Chinese civilization pays attention to military affairs is to know that the other side can survive a hundred battles, and their understanding of Ah San's side is limited to Liu Yan's occasional chatter, which cannot be used as evidence, it must be to first understand which countries are over there, what is the sea power, and finally what to do after landing.

"Touch, touch."

Ran Min took it for granted: "Issue a strict order, there must be a feasibility report within three months, cut the chief official within the time limit, and reward you for completing the task" Ran Min felt that it was unnecessary to spy on Ah San's countries and how strong those countries were on land, and he firmly believed that as long as they were targeted, none of them would be invincible, and the difference was just how big the price was
