Volume 3 Swinging the Sword and Fighting the Clouds Section 3 The Fierce Dog, The Fierce Tiger
Jiang Feng's words of great affirmation finally mobilized the generals' emotions to the extreme. Even Qin Zaidao and Zhang Yue, who were in poor health, were inexplicably excited, and people like Ge Han and Li Tong couldn't help but be ecstatic.
For these officers from Daliang, Gushi is of course different from those old soldiers. They are not just trying to make a living, but they have greater ambitions and goals, which are to get promoted and make money, be granted a wife and a cute child, and then build a family business and seek a prosperous future for future generations and even families.
Xuzhou? Xuzhou!
The difference between prefectures and counties is too big. Once a prefecture is established, it means that it will face the imperial court directly. In a sense, even Daliang and Yuzhou are on an equal footing position.
Because the Li Tang regulations mean that prefectures and counties are administrative regions, while the like-dao level mainly refers to supervision areas, while the Jieduo refers more to personal integrity, which has greater military significance, but has never been upgraded to a first-level administrative region in terms of legal principles, so the real administrative region should still be defined by prefectures and counties.
"Han Feizi·Xian Xue" says well that powerful generals must be born in the army of the army, and prime ministers must be born in the provincial department. This provincial department actually refers to the original prefectures and counties, that is, the current states. In other words, if you really want to make a fortune, you basically have to get up from the provincial department of the army of the army of the state.
For generals like Yang Kan and Ding Man, a Gushi County Army could obviously no longer meet their requirements. If they could appear as the Junzhou Army, it would mean that they could have greater military power, participate in larger and more intense wars, and also gain more merits and benefits. This is more attractive to generals than anything.
Especially before, Jiang Feng had clearly expressed that he would fulfill his promise before the war, and even ordinary soldiers could receive rewards including money and land. So what about these senior generals who took greater responsibility and made greater contributions?
Once the state of Wu is established, it is expected that they will receive more rewards for their choices.
Seeing that the generals were all happy, Jiang Feng was also very satisfied, and this was the effect he wanted.
Now the Gushi Army is facing a good period of opportunity, but the Gushi Army's strength is limited and time is also limited. Once this opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to find such an opportunity in the future. Therefore, Jiang Feng understands that he may face another extremely adventurous and difficult choice, but he has no choice.
Since that's the case, he can only use all the power he can use, and take another big adventure, or gambling.
In the eyes of many people, perhaps the Gushi Army should be resting and resting now, and staying to watch Daliang and Caizhou Army fight to death, but Jiang Feng knew that Daliang might be difficult to kill Caizhou, a wolf with extremely strong vitality this time.
The surrounding Taining Army, Jin Army and Insurgent Army will not allow Daliang to do so. Even Nanyang, which is now actively seeking to improve relations with Daliang, may not be willing to see this happen.
Perhaps Nanyang can still be ambiguous when the situation is unclear, but when Daliang really wants to pose a life-and-death threat to Caizhou, Nanyang may change his course, not to mention that there is a Guanzhong Li family who can play the role of threading needles at any time.
It can be said that all the vassals around Daliang are welcomed by the Liang-Cai battle, but they will never allow Daliang to form an overwhelming advantage over Caizhou. This is the bottom line. They hope that the battle between Liang-Cai can cause both sides to suffer losses, or form a deadlock, and even Jiang Feng is the same in his heart.
Only in this way can the neighboring vassals gain the greatest benefit, such as Nanyang invading Anzhou and planning to build the Qingzhou by himself.
Jiang Feng had already realized something. Daliang, the number one vassal lord known as the overlord of the Central Plains, had actually fallen into a dense net.
Whether it is the Great Jin, the Taining Army, Huaibei, Caizhou, and Nanyang and Guanzhong, except for the Great Jin, other companies are unwilling to show up and act as the vanguard of attacking Daliang, and they hope that others will take on the burden, but they will never tolerate any of the forces in the middle being destroyed by Daliang.
The Great Jin is an exception, because as the only strong vassal who dares to compete with the Great Jin, the Great Jin does have the ability to fight against the Great Jin. Of course, the Great Jin only has this challenge ability.
Fundamentally speaking, the regional population and geographical location of Dajin determine that it has the ability to fight Daliang alone, especially because it is born with the advantage of obtaining excellent war horses from outside the Great Wall and obtaining support from Zahu to form an iron cavalry. However, with its huge strategic depth and population economy, Daliang will be difficult for Dajin to truly defeat Daliang from the front.
If you want to completely defeat and destroy Daliang, unless the other families can give Dajin full support, once Dajin destroys Daliang, will Dajin become another vassal vassal vassal that is more terrifying than Daliang? This is probably also a question that other vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal
It is precisely because of these complicated psychological factors and conditions that the vassals coexist and attacked endlessly, but there was a situation where it was difficult to see the clues of the situation for decades.
During this period, Daliang was not unaware of this, and he also relied on his own super strength to start wars. However, as long as one of them is truly facing the situation of destruction, the other companies will help them and make them unable to do so. This can be seen from the clues of Liang Cai’s battle for Chenzhou three years ago.
The knowledgeable people inside Daliang are increasingly aware of the signs that Daliang is becoming increasingly unfavorable in this lasting showdown. It is an extremely dangerous sign since the Caizhou rebellion a few years ago.
The ally, who was originally attached to Daliang, suddenly backfired and suddenly became a vanguard of counterattack Daliang. It was nothing more, because they realized that Daliang's current decline and bureaucratic slowness were the first step to seize Nanchenzhou.
It was precisely because Daliang was slow to react and did not make a strong counterattack that Caizhou sucked Guangzhou in one go. If it weren't for Caizhou's actions being too fierce and too big that Du's family was scared, and Du sent troops to intervene, I'm afraid that the entire Guangzhou now belongs to Caizhou. At that point, the situation in Daliang would be even more worrying.
Therefore, when Jiang Feng was in Bianliang, he ridiculed Li He and Li Gu and others, saying that Daliang actually had to rely on the help of a Huang-Huang Du, who was not in the sky or even in the middle of friendship. Daliang himself was still so slow that he was ignorant of Caizhou's movements. He didn't realize how much strength would expand after Caizhou swallowed Guangzhou and how much threat it would be to Daliang in the future. It was ridiculous to think about it.
These words really made Li He and others feel ashamed.
Daliang is not without people who are aware of it, but Daliang is sometimes too arrogant and too conservative, which makes its efficiency seem particularly low. However, after Jiang Feng pointed out this, Daliang Zhengshi Hall and Chongzhengyuan realized that the emergence of Gushi was indeed an opportunity, an opportunity to penetrate a nail and a wedge behind Caizhou and Huaibei.
The function of the nail is to make Caizhou and Huaibei thorns on the back and cannot deal with the beam with all their strength. The function of the wedge is more important and can be used to pry changes in the situation in this area.
For Daliang, the situation in the area between Huaibei, Huainan and Caizhou is already so bad that it cannot be broken. As long as the Gushijun, a slightly immature but growing rapidly, is quickly catalyzed and strengthened, let the area act recklessly and restrain the energy of Caizhou and Huaibei, it will only benefit Daliang and not harm it. Moreover, it can be said that the stronger the Gushijun is now, the more beneficial it is to Daliang.
It is precisely because of these factors that Jiang Feng believes that the Gushi Army can be bolder and more demands on Daliang, because this is in the interests of both parties.
It is in Daliang's interests to capture Huoshan and the prosperous Tang Dynasty, establish Wuzhou, and make the Gushi army a more powerful Wuzhou army, and become a fierce dog that can truly compete with and restrain Caizhou and Huaibei.
Jiang Feng didn't mind being a fierce dog on Daliang, because the current status of Gushi Army determined that it could only be a dog now, and had not yet developed to have a tiger that could have its own will. With the support of Daliang and the opportunity created by Daliang and the ant thief, he spared no effort to strengthen himself in all aspects and find a development path that belongs to Gushi Army. This is what Jiang Feng wants to do now.
"Everyone is at ease. If we want to turn Gushi into a Zhouzhou, we still have a lot of things to do here. I said just now. The most fundamental thing is whether our own army is strong enough. If even ant thief can't defeat, how can you win the prosperous Tang Dynasty and control Huoshan?" Jiang Feng's words began to enter into substantial problems. "So our top priority is to build a strong army that can fight tough battles and win battles. But now our Gushi army is still far from this standard. We need time, but we will not have much time left for us. The situation changes step by step. If we follow the steps, maybe when we feel that we have the conditions, but the external situation has changed and we have no chance."
"Mr. Commander, how can you do it with just one word? We dare to go to the sea of swords and fires. No matter what the ten major bandits of Yiluo or ant thiefs, our Gushi army is coming to get the territory. If you dare to come to the tiger's mouth to seize food, we will destroy him!"
Ge Han was the first to slap his chest, with a firm word. The battle to defend the city in Gushi City was the most depressing thing for him. Yuan Wenjin and Yuan Wenhuai joined forces to fight four people, but they were suppressed by others and had no record at all. So he kept holding his breath and wanted to open up the situation for himself in Gushi Army as soon as possible.
