Nine hundred and ninety-fifth chapter temple calculation (1)
Even the Qin and Han Dynasties were like this.
Although the Qin and Han Dynasties implemented a farming and war policy under a militaristic system.
Under this policy, every county and every pavilion in the empire was a military camp.
In the vast land of China, the martial arts that emerged since the Warring States Period is still strong today.
Even if Qilu is corrupt and degenerate in Liu Che's eyes, it is only the upper echelons of Qilu that are corrupt and degenerate.
In the grassroots pavilions, heroes and heroes still emerge in endlessly.
What is missing is a wise master who discovers and appoints them.
Apart from that, now, the Colonel of the Reclamation Regiment of the Thorny Clan Army, the face of the Thorny Clan Army, and the Captain of the Thieves of the Anton Protectorate, Tojian.
Five years ago, he was just a so-called Linzi hero who only knew how to bully people, bully people, and extort money.
Today, Tobirama has become a well-deserved hero.
The great chivalrous person serves the country and the people!
Tobirama's actions are in line with the true spirit of chivalry.
As a result, he not only had the nickname "Timely Rain" among the Andong vassals.
With Liu Che, he is considered registered.
And does Qilu only have one sword room?
Liu Che felt that, looking around, Qilu's cities and neighborhoods were full of swords.
The reason why they haven't come forward now is just because they don't have a chance.
If the opportunity comes, they will be like their predecessors Ying Bu and Ji Bu, the carp leaping over the dragon's gate.
And Liu Che decided to give them this opportunity.
In fact, this was one of the reasons why Liu Che decided to use Mo Dao soldiers.
Southerners are not good at riding and shooting.
But he is good at technical warfare.
Back then, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the swordsmen of Wu and Yue attracted worldwide attention.
The gentlemen of Qi and Lu walk with swords in hand, and are respected by everyone among the nations.
Even China's military strategic thinking originated from Wu, Yue and Qilu.
Sima Xiangji, Sun Wu, and Sun Bin took over the baton one after another, making the military strategist finally shine.
If you speak truth and fight in formation, who should Qi, Lu, Wu and Yue and the vast number of southern men be afraid of?
In the battle of Julu, it was the children of the old Chu from Jiangdong who charged forward first and overturned the powerful Qin army.
Even in the era when cavalry was king, there were still five thousand Danyang soldiers led by Li Ling who dismounted on foot and used bows and crossbows to teach the Huns how to behave.
In that battle, five thousand versus eighty thousand, and the eighty thousand Huns cavalry were helpless.
It's a pity that the southeast and south are limited by the transportation and messaging conditions of this era.
It is difficult to use effectively.
During the reign of Emperor Wu, the army in the south fought against Mitsukoshi and destroyed the southwestern barbarians.
The only time he was organized into an army, trained into an elite, and was buried among the mountains of Qilian Mountains.
Of course Liu Che cannot tolerate such a situation happening again.
How many young people are there in the entire north?
With the mobilization power and mobilization conditions of the feudal era, mobilizing two million young men to join the war was already the limit.
After all, Han is not Qin.
It is not as terrifying and powerful as Qin's mobilization ability.
It is even more impossible to replicate the miracle of the Qin State during the Changping War between Qin and Zhao, when everyone from the Qin State to eighty years old and ten years old, regardless of gender, old or young, served the war.
However, the vast world in the south has a lot to offer.
Among other things, Liu Che felt that it was achievable to recruit and train a combat force of 300,000 people locally.
And, of course, the best weapon of this army is the Mo Dao.
After all, Liu Che did not have the time or manpower to spend six or seven years training five thousand Danyang soldiers into cavalry like Li Ling did.
As for Mo Dao, a unit that is easy to learn and at the same time powerful, it has naturally become the first choice.
At the same time, transferring soldiers from the south to the north can increase the feelings of the people in the north and the south and make the country more united.
After all, if the war is fought by the northerners, the southerners only need to watch the show with their hands behind their hands.
Then, the south would be excluded from the ruling class of the Han Dynasty.
The interests and differences between the North and the South will cause fractures and even cracks.
Therefore, for the expansion of the Yulin Guard and Huben Guard this time, Liu Che deliberately selected the source of most of his soldiers from the south.
But, what is the quality of the soldiers in the South? Can they adapt to the war needs of the new era?
Liu Che felt more or less unsure.
After all, the south is not like the north, especially the counties of the Great Wall.
In the north, especially in counties near the Great Wall, there are strict reserve military training and even large-scale militia performances every year.
In the south, peace lasts for a long time.
Except for the Wu-Chu Rebellion five or six years ago, gunpowder smoke has not been seen in the area for decades.
Even if Wu Chu rebels, it will still be decided in March.
The actual fighting time was only two months.
"Your Majesty, everything is well!" Yi Zong replied with a smile in the hot spring nearby: "The soldiers selected this time are all selected from the families of the soldiers and generals of Huaisi County, and they are all Lao Yu
In the army, we must have regular soldiers who know the rules and laws of the army. In addition, Your Majesty cares for you and selects capable officers from the prefectures and counties as generals. If the whole army is properly trained, it should be ready to form an army before July!"
Liu Che felt relieved after hearing this.
"In this case, I'm relieved!" Liu Che stood up, and immediately a eunuch came over to dress him.
Putting on his clogs, he walked to an attic and wrapped himself in a loose bathrobe. Liu Che looked at Yi Zong who was still soaking in the pool and said, "Soldiers of Huaisi, please give me strict supervision. Don't worry about my face!"
This is another area where Liu Che is worried.
This recruitment not only recruited troops from Danyang, Xiapi and other places, but also recruited five hundred soldiers from the real home base of the old Liu family, Fengpeng.
You know, the rich men, since Liu Bang, all have eyes on their foreheads.
Originally, Liu Che did not want to recruit troops from Fengpei at all.
But as soon as the wealthy elders heard that the emperor was going to recruit troops, they wrote letters one after another, requesting to recruit their own sons.
Liu Che had no choice but to hold his nose and ask for five hundred.
"No!" Yi Zong also climbed up on the desk, put on his yukata, and said respectfully: "Since the day the Habayashi Guards formed an army, it has been their bounden duty to serve His Majesty and serve as a wing for the country. There is no mercy in the Habayashi Forest.
Everything should be done on the basis of talents and used only by those who are worthy of their talents!"
"Good!" Liu Che clapped his hands and praised, "That's exactly what it should be!"
Yi Zong's attitude finally made Liu Che feel relieved.
To be honest, in fact, the best source of soldiers in the world is still abundant.
After all, that is the Liu family's true hometown and headquarters.
The local scholar-bureaucrats, nobles and farmers have been the retainers of Emperor Liu for generations.
This is what Liu Bang stipulated: He will use Pei as my Tangmuyi, restore his people, and have nothing to do with him from generation to generation.
The local people and gentry's support for the Liu family is absolutely amazing.
But because of this, the local soldiers have become a constant problem since Taizong.
Soldiers with rich backgrounds cannot be beaten or scolded in the army.
It's all meat on a hob.
Do you dare to punish them?
They can directly take the case all the way to the imperial court, to the generals with five sense organs, and even to the emperor.
Liu Che has always been worried that these uncles joined the Yulin Guard and the Huben Guard, relying on themselves as the emperor's retainers and not paying attention to military law and discipline.
In the end, he, the emperor, was unable to behave as a human being.
Now it seems that the abundant disciple soldiers are quite disciplined!
Putting aside the matter of Modao's new recruits, Liu Che looked at Yizong and asked: "In your opinion, what is the best time to attack in the Hetao battle?"
This is also a headache that Liu Che has been having recently.
For China, if it can choose.
Then, the best time for the war is after August and before March.
In this way, harm to farmers can be avoided, and the country's strength and resources can be mobilized to the maximum extent.
But the problem is, the Huns are not stupid.
Everyone knows that after the autumn harvest, the Han army is as energetic as the children in Fangjiewa.
We will definitely be more vigilant after the autumn harvest.
Moreover, it was the habit of the Huns to graze their animals on the grasslands in northern and western parts of the country in spring and summer, and then return to the south to spend the winter in autumn and winter.
If the war starts in autumn and winter, the Huns will be stronger and better prepared.
Therefore, historically, when Huo Qubing and Wei Qing first left the fortress, they chose summer, when the Xiongnu tribe was far away from Munan.
But the problem is that doing so will do great harm to the social economy.
Hundreds of thousands of civilians abandoned production and joined the war.
Agricultural production and life in the north will inevitably be seriously affected.
Therefore, Liu Che extensively solicited the opinions of the generals and princes.
However, the views held by everyone are contradictory to each other.
This made Liu Che hesitate.
After all, he is just an otaku who has never been to the battlefield and lives in Weiyang Palace.
He gained his knowledge of the army and war through reports from ministers and records in books.
There was no other way, Liu Che had no choice but to further seek opinions from more people.
When Yi Zong heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Reporting to your Majesty, I thought..."
He gritted his teeth, looked up at Liu Che, and said, "October next winter is the best time to attack!"
Hearing this, Liu Che touched the light beard on his chin and asked, "Please tell me..."
"First, in October of winter, the river will be frozen. Our army can take Ziling and go straight to Gaoque. There is no need to forcefully cross the river and risk it!" Yi Zong said.
Liu Che nodded noncommittally.
Will the Beihe River in Hetao freeze in winter?
This is something that the Han Dynasty cannot understand now.
Moreover, even if it freezes, the thickness of the frozen glacier is also a problem.
Of course, in winter, it is certain that the water in large rivers becomes shallower and the flow speed slows down. This is also the view of those who advocate marching in winter.
However, this is not enough reason to march in winter.
In winter, venture into a strange world and fight with enemies in the wilderness.
It placed strong demands on the logistics of the Han army.
After all, the roads are slippery in winter, and if it snows again, the army's supplies may be affected.
Moreover, in fact, the Huns were more adaptable to fighting in winter than the Han army.
They are used to the severe cold weather in winter and know how to survive and fight in such weather.
But the Han army had not yet experienced fighting the enemy in the severe cold of winter.
Liu Che has not forgotten the lessons of the Battle of Pingcheng!
The Han army was trapped on Baishan Mountain for seven days, and only a few hundred were killed.
However, after the war, twenty-three out of ten soldiers were forced to have their limbs amputated due to frostbite! (To be continued.)
