"It's a bit like surrounding a point to call for reinforcements." Guan Yu thought for a moment and then said.
"It's different. This move is more to consume Kushan's foundation and buy us more time. To be honest, the east of Huashi City we captured can only choose to operate as a local, and we can't move domestically.
We need a sufficient population, and to support the expedition, the food here is indispensable." Guo Jia sighed and said.
This is the biggest problem of the Han Dynasty now. The Han Dynasty itself also had a population problem. In addition to facilitating management and administration, Chen Xi gathered villages to determine the true population of the Han Dynasty. However, the final data obtained,
Chen Xi was helpless.
Counting the naturalized populations of the Qiang, Nanman, and Wuxi Barbarians, the population under the Han Dynasty was only 47 million, which was a decrease of about 10 million from the 56 million during the reign of Emperor Huan.
, not to mention that the population during the reign of Emperor Huan was still purely the population of the Central Plains.
Chen Xi's new statistical method incorporates the family's private soldiers, private slaves and naturalized population. In fact, when it comes to the population, at the lowest point in the past few decades, more than 15 million people may have evaporated.
This is a fact that makes Chen Xi very helpless.
It takes twenty years or more to cultivate an adult, but it may only take one knife to kill them. The speed of loss and the speed of cultivation are two completely different difficulties. Even though the Yellow Turban Rebellion lasted only a few years, it was so
Over the years, Chen Xi may have been able to make up for the population that was lost in the first year of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, but maybe not even...
In fact, Chen Xiyou talked with people like Li You, Jia Xu, and Guo Jia. After the development of the south of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the black land outside the Pass, the land in the Central Plains actually does not exceed 50 million including the current naturalized population.
It was more than enough for the Han Dynasty.
It can even be said that if Chen Xi had not merged villages, specialized and scaled agriculture, and continuously cultivated cattle of sufficient scale, in fact, after the development of the north and south of the Han Dynasty, there would not have been enough manpower for farming.
Li You and the others have one opinion on this. They are unfounded worries and stupid. Sooner or later, there will be people with land. If we don’t take advantage of the fact that we are strong enough to quickly lay down the basic foundation for future generations and lay the foundation of the world, I am afraid they may not be able to do this in the future.
Chance.
However, because of Chen Xi's clear explanation, ruthless characters like Li You extinguished the series of extermination policies in their minds that could be called crazy.
After all, Chinese civilization has never been based on pure blood as the core of the series. Culture, ideas, etc. are combined with blood and are eclectic. To put it simply, the sea is open to all rivers, and tolerance is great. It does not exclude the integration of other outsiders, it is just the priority.
Very clearly distinguished.
Therefore, after confirming that Chen Xi was not joking, all the extermination policies were eliminated, including military conquest and civilized education. As the most advanced civilization in the world, the Han Dynasty had absolute self-confidence. No one could take away the meat they swallowed.
Not going.
This is why Guo Jia immediately ordered Chen Chi to start farming after he determined that he could take over the east of Fahrenheit City as soon as possible. The Han family would not do anything false. They would talk about other things when they were full. They would just treat this place as a local business.
We can cultivate fields and engage in construction. When the army comes later, we won’t have to bring food and grass from home.
Even Guo Jia did not have such a big tone to swallow up an empire in one go. Although Guo Jia despised Kushan in terms of strategy, even if he adopted a strategy that would destroy Kushan's national power no matter how he played it, Guo Jia still did it.
Be prepared for a protracted war.
I really thought that Jialan God’s slogans were to deal with you Kushans. No, we were more trying to win over people’s hearts at the beginning, so that these guys would not mess up, buy enough time, and then carry out a wave of crazy construction to destroy this place.
Become a base camp.
When the time comes, there will be no need to calculate and calculate like this. In fact, the higher the level of a wise man, the more he hates calculations. There is nothing more worry-free and labor-saving than crushing, and what Guo Jia is doing now is perfecting crushing.
Preliminary conditions for pressure.
Guan Yu didn't say much. He also knew about the situation in the country. He also knew that the country was probably very worried about the problem of moving here. No one could stop the movement of troops, but moving the people was not that easy now.
.
"How to solve the problem of education?" Xu Shu pushed open the door and asked.
"If you have a solid warehouse, you will know the etiquette; if you have enough food and clothing, you will know the honor and disgrace." Guo Jia smiled and said, "This matter is very simple."
"It's not simple. If you don't believe me, you don't know the problem of Brahman. The method you chose to create gods means that there will be another problem of gods before these. From what I see now, it seems that here
It's completely different from the Central Plains." Xu Shu shook his head and rejected Guo Jia's words.
"Don't worry, God Jialan will be destroyed and become a god like us in the Central Plains." Guo Jia said calmly, while Guan Yu had an indifferent expression. He is who he is, and God Jialan is just a decoration.
"If this side can't accept it, there will be chaos." Xu Shu sighed and said.
"Let's let Mrs. Lu come then. She will naturally have a way to solve this kind of thing. What we want is stability in the early stage, and someone will solve it in the later stage." Guo Jia's eyes flashed with brilliance, and the longer he stayed in Kushan,
, Guo Jiayue understood how terrifying Ji Xiang was.
When the Jialan God is destroyed and Ji Xiang takes over, even if there is turmoil, it will naturally be stable. Although some less harmonious methods will inevitably appear, according to Chen Xi, if the attacks are not so brutal, it can actually gradually recover.
of.
Besides, based on Guo Jia's many years of experience, women's personalities will change after having children. Even if Ji Xiang has an evil nature, after a few years, she won't be as good and evil as she once was, anyway.
Even if Lu Su is a little weak, it's not like he can't do this. If so, Guo Jiazhen will look down on Lu Su.
"..." Xu Shu was speechless, and after a while he said, "Just be prepared. Some things have to be prepared for backlash after you use them."
"Don't worry, I'm usually ready for backlash when I strike." A cold light flashed across Guo Jia's eyes. He was really backlashing against himself this time. By now, Guo Jia has learned to use his spiritual talent.
Judge the future.
"Brahasi City is left to you. Just surround it and attack it." Guo Jia told Xu Shu. In fact, there was no need to say anything more. He used Yu Jin's ability to surround Brahasi City and create a
It is not difficult for the Han army to attack here with all its strength.
"How about I go." Xu Shu thought for a moment and sighed. Guo Jia and Chen Xi were the weakest among the group. Although Xu Shu only listened to half of the content, he almost guessed what Guo Jia wanted to do.
.
"The opponent is not that easy to deal with. I will work with General Guan and we will just show off every opportunity." Guo Jia waved his hand and said, "Although I am not in good health, I am not exaggerating to the extent you think."
"Is the plan you mentioned before the real plan?" Seeing Guo Jia's expression, Xu Shu knew that the other party was paying attention, and asked with a little depression.
"Who knows, although the plan is made, since I made it, of course I will make different modifications due to different situations." Guo Jia said matter-of-factly. Xu Shu pressed his temples after hearing this. His intuition
Tell him that what Guo Jia did is really too dangerous.
"Can you tell me what exactly you want to do?" Xu Shu said after a while, "I heard part of your plan. It is indeed very implementable and interesting, but I don't think it is your style."
"..." Guo Jialiu was a little silent, while Guan Yu was thoughtful.
"I suspect you are gambling on your life." Xu Shu said with a gloomy face, "Although I don't know what you want to do, I can guarantee that you are definitely gambling on your life. A probability of 1/2 or something is enough for you to gamble.
A handful, even though I don’t know anything.”
Guo Jia had a slight headache, and then he reached out and drew two strokes on the map. Xu Shu fell into silence, then slowly raised his head and looked at Guo Jia, "Are you crazy?"
"No." Guo Jia made two more empty strokes on the map, "Well, that's it, we haven't been exposed. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
"What if we fail to penetrate Brahasi City?" Xu Shu looked at Guo Jia solemnly and said, "If we fail to penetrate Brahasi City, you will be trapped in a tight siege. As a general and military advisor, how can you
Such an adventure.”
"If you can't even capture the city of Brahmas, then I can only say that I think highly of you." Guo Jia said with a smile, "Yuanzhi, take some responsibility, you are not young anymore, the victory is yours."
Let’s put it into good use.”
Xu Shu couldn't remember how he was persuaded, but the next day, except for leaving a few troops to defend Huashi City, everyone else led their troops to Brahasi, and then under Xu Shu's gloomy eyes
The troops were divided into three groups.
Zhang Ren and Ji Ling relied on the guidance of destiny, disguised themselves as God Jialan, and carried out the flowering strategy with the west of Brahmas City to attract Kushan's attention.
Lidas then led the believers to bypass Brahasi and convey the glory of God Jialan in the essence of Kushan. He ensured that before the will of God Jialan's trial was passed down, the southern part of Kushan and close to Brahasi would be first conveyed.
Make four or five cities your own.
This one is basically not difficult. The Brahmins are probably grasping this life-saving straw and trying hard to negotiate terms with the royal family to ensure their own interests, and this time is enough.
Guan Yu led an army of 30,000 troops and attacked Peshawar from the south of the Himalayas.
As for Yu Jin and Xu Shu, they led an army of 60,000 and besieged Brahasi City as if Guan Yu was still in the camp. Well, this disguise will be exposed in a short time, but it is not important, this matter
It's not intended to be used to hide the truth from the other party.
