Just like the martial arts warriors that the Cui family has completely mastered, if the Yuan family really wants to say that, it is actually just the talent smelting that has mastered a part of the elite legion.
It can be said that these legions are the foundation of the Yuan family. Even if Huangfu Song makes it easy, an existence of Huangfu Song's level is a treasure for the Han Empire.
Therefore, the transaction between Yuan Tan and the Cui family was essentially a question of teaching him to fish or teaching him to fish. After Cui Jun received the receipt, he only thought for a short time before choosing to teach him to fish. After all,
The situation of the Euphorbia has made Cui Jun understand that without a complete training plan and smelting skills, even if he gets the legion, he cannot fully master it.
The upper limit of the Yuyang Assault Cavalry is very high. Maybe the Yuan family is not the only one in the Central Plains who has mastered this legion smelting technique, but there are basically no ones willing to share it with the Cui family.
What's more, compared to ordinary smelting methods, even if the Yuan family's method is not orthodox, it is still an excellent one. After all, talent smelting, different smelting for different legions, is itself a kind of knowledge.
To a certain extent, it is a win-win situation for the Cui family to obtain a full complement of dual talents, and the Yuan family to obtain a Imperial Guard army. It is better than consuming a Imperial Guard army that cannot perform due to the general environment.
In the battlefield below the talent level.
However, after this incident, it means that both parties have completely canceled their accounts. Cui will most likely guard the Caucasus and take advantage of the current gap period to train his own martial arts warriors first, so that at least the strength will be fully controlled by his own body.
, and whether it is used or found a way to advance to the Imperial Guard, at least there is a clear way to record it.
To a certain extent, the Cui family has ended the novice village era and entered a real stage of development, with enough strength to face other impacts.
"Actually, the main problem now is that the military strength of the major families has collapsed due to their initial opportunism." Guo Jia looked at the information in his hand with a dull expression.
Changes in the weather are the biggest test. Whether the soldiers under your command are trained by you or mixed up, you can tell almost instantly.
Being trained means that you at least master the true structure of this legion and know how to adjust this legion so that you can continue to develop even if you encounter a blow.
But it's different for those who came out. Tianbian smashed all the bastards.
They don't know how to train this legion and how to maintain its combat effectiveness. They only rely on veterans to lead new recruits. As the veterans collapse, the new recruits are completely hopeless.
This is the situation faced by most aristocratic families, and those who can survive the changes in the sky at least show that these families are not sneaky in this regard. They control the weapons they use, and they have certain adjustment and improvement capabilities.
We have worked hard on this aspect.
To put it simply, it is the difference between hard work, self-reliance and comprador.
All major aristocratic families have veterans who have been detained, or relevant knowledge harvested during the times when they were in power. However, the problem is that just because you get knowledge, it does not mean that you have mastered it. It is not that easy to become self-taught.
Therefore, in the early days, major aristocratic families studied the military units they had inherited and had complete routes on their own, and at the same time used veterans procured from other places for free to copy these legions that they did not master but could use.
This is true for all aristocratic families. It just depends on which side has more. The reality of the changes in the sky has made Chen Xi and others see that there are too many shortcuts and too few self-reliance, such as the Wang family in Taiyuan and the Pei family in Wenxi.
There are very few families that can cultivate their own army.
"Can they really afford it?" Liu Ye asked with some regret, full of distrust for most aristocratic families.
"From a fair point of view, they can really afford it. It can only be said that the early mentality has not been completely reversed. After the accident, none of them gave up." Li You said a rare fair word.
Although to a certain extent, Li You hates these aristocratic families very much, it is better to throw the aristocratic families abroad than these people causing trouble at home, and these people are at least struggling abroad.
, Li You should consider suppressing it to some extent.
"Just wait and see, if you force them, there will be results." Zhuge Liang also gave his judgment from a neutral perspective.
Liu Ye didn't say much after hearing this. Thinking about the situation in the country, without the aristocratic families, there were fewer constraints. If you think about it this way, no matter what the situation of the major aristocratic families is outside, it is not a bad thing for the Han Dynasty.
"Perhaps from your point of view, the development of major aristocratic families in Central Asia is not worth the resources they consume. Even if it were replaced by our own country, it would push the entire Central Asia flat, and it would not be like this. But in reality
If you put those aristocratic families in the country, our disappearance would probably be the limit." Lu Su also disagreed with Liu Ye's words.
The corners of Liu Ye's eyes twitched. He also knew that what Lu Su said was true. If the major aristocratic families were still wasting their time in the country, there would be enough things for the Han Dynasty to drink just by holding them back.
But what Liu Ye actually meant was that since those families had gone out, there was no need to continue investing resources of that scale in them.
As far as the level of development of the major aristocratic families is concerned, in Liu Ye's opinion, they are not worthy of the resources provided by Chen Xi. Even the most developed Yuan family, in Liu Ye's opinion, those personnel handed over to the Han Dynasty will not be allocated under Chen Xi's unified deployment.
Next time, we will only do better than the Yuan family.
"Because it's impossible to do that." Zhuge Liang sighed and said, "Essentially, this is a deal that benefits both sides. At most, the country will get the lion's share, but if we don't take this opportunity to continue to promote it, we will probably
You have to go back to the original route."
It's not that the original route was not good enough, but that Zhuge Liang can feel more vitality with the current route. If the country kills those aristocratic families, the Yuan family, Cao Sun, and implements a unified model of management, Zhuge Liang estimates that Central Asia will
The probability will be given up.
Even the Yuan family cannot follow the detailed westward expansion plan made by the Yuan family and take over the entire Eastern Europe in three to four generations.
Because theoretically speaking, the mainland of the Central Plains is enough to support the Central Plains people. Even if there is a need to harvest, I am afraid that the Ganges River Basin will be harvested. I am afraid that other places are really not necessary for the Central Plains people.
The Chu land was not a necessary place for the Zhou royal family. Later, it became an integral part of the Qin Dynasty. Later, it became the core area of economic development during the Tang, Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties.
But this kind of prosperity does not exist naturally, but has been developed by generations of people. As Chen Xi and Zhou Yu chatted, the behavior of the Chu State was a provocation to the Zhou royal family, but for the entire China, it was actually a challenge for hundreds of generations.
the foundation.
Similarly, those places in Central Asia have to be developed by people. Without those aristocratic families to deal with the development, the Han Dynasty will not be able to occupy it even if it is conquered, because for the country, maintaining such a distant garrison is actually of little significance, and
Management costs are too high.
The simplest ones are Jiuzhen and Rinan in the south of Jiaozhou, and even places in the west of Liangzhou and Ailao in the south of Yizhou. In fact, during the Eastern Han Dynasty, they all discussed whether to give up at the court meeting. The reason was not that they could not be defeated.
Even though the Eastern Han Dynasty was a little weaker, it could still kill foreigners.
The reasons why this was mentioned during the court meeting were mostly due to remoteness, high management costs, and too little output, etc. These reasons were actually exactly the same as the evaluation of Chu during the Zhou Dynasty. They were due to the development of the times.
Has the country’s mobility become stronger? The cost of managing Chu Land has become lower? The army can move over at any time?
No, even if there is a certain difference between the mobility of the Western Zhou Dynasty and the mobility of the Qin and Han Dynasties, there will not be such a big distance. In essence, the output of the Chu land is enough to supply, so the Chu land has become an inseparable part of the Central Plains.
Part of it.
This is the most realistic point. According to the estimates of Zhuge Liang and others, if enfeoffment is not carried out, at most one or two generations of the Han Dynasty will give up the foreign land west of Congling. The southern part will be reserved to Luzon at most, and the southwest will be reserved to
Ganges River.
As for other positions, I definitely give up on them all because they can't be managed.
Just like how they quickly gave up on Central Asia after the Jutang incident, it was not that they wanted to give up, but they had to give up after comparing their output.
Just like the Yuan family has no energy to attack Central Asia, even without Rome, Yuan Tan has no desire for Central Asia. Just a westward expansion plan is enough to consume several generations of the Yuan family to death. The only way is to completely eat them.
After getting down to this place and digesting it for nearly a hundred years, you can have enough energy to deal with other things.
Reality is not a game. If you click with the mouse, even if there is sand all around, there will always be garrison troops there. In fact, the national management system also has to consider costs, and it is impossible to sink an area infinitely.
If you want to completely win over the outer areas, the best way is for someone to build those places into elite areas first. Just like what the King of Chu said, the ancestors cut the blue roads to open up the mountains and forests, and turn the wilderness into fertile soil. Then the winner will
We have inherited this fertile land and will naturally not give it up.
Otherwise, the current situation in Central Asia is really tasteless for the Han Dynasty, and it is a pity to abandon it. But I can honestly say, is that place bad? It is not bad. It is simply that the locals are too poor to build.
A place that can support an empire means that it can develop, no matter from which perspective.
What Chen Xi wants are families like Chu, Qi, and Qin that are pioneering in the wilderness. They are not afraid of losing some money, because when they succeed in pioneering, they will return it sooner or later.
If you want to occupy a certain place permanently, in addition to your own strength, the place must also have sufficient value.
