Chapter 342 Argument
Fu Bi said: "Now it is too late to save the situation, Jun Shi. As long as Shaanxi is brave, Xixia will definitely know that the Song Dynasty has added 200,000 troops, and will definitely not dare to invade again! This is the strategy of making a sound first and then taking action as the art of war says!"
Sima Guang sneered and said: "How many days can there be between one and the other?! How can this be a statement before the truth? It is obviously a statement before the truth!"
"This strategy can only deceive Xixia for a while, but it will be discovered in a blink of an eye. Although it will benefit 200,000 soldiers, it is not useful. Ten days later, when the Westerners know the details, will they still be afraid?"
Han Qi suddenly interrupted: "Wait a minute, you are absolutely right. You said that Xiangyong is useless, but Mingrun used it in Kuizhou, and it achieved great results! How can it be postponed because of the accident in the previous dynasty?"
"If the local brave is not available, how can Mingrun defeat the Konoha barbarians and stabilize the Kuizhou road?"
Su You's head was turning like an owl, watching the two sides going back and forth like a table tennis match in later generations. As a result, strange peaks appeared, and everyone suddenly focused their attention on him, and they suddenly felt a little stupid: "Huh?"
Han Qi said: "Mingrun, tell me about your strategy for rural bravery in Kuizhou."
Su You was very embarrassed: "My lord, I'm sorry, but actually I think... what Sima Dajian said is reasonable."
Fu Bi was very angry: "Mingrun! Didn't you rely on Sizhou Township to defeat the enemy bravely? The previous victory in Kuizhou was not a lie to the emperor?!"
Su You smiled bitterly and bowed, "How dare you do this? However, Your Majesty, Privy Council, Kuizhou Township Yong, is really very different from Shaanxi and Hebei."
"First of all, the Kuizhou Xiangyong only occupy the quota of Kui, Zhong, Kai, and Da four prefectures. They are not really drawn from the peasants of the four prefectures."
"Among the two thousand and four hundred people, the backbone is composed of hundreds of people from the Dun'an Army and the He Control Army."
"The two armies fought bloody battles in the southwest. They first pacified Shama, then controlled the Luman, then conquered Peng Shixi, and later borrowed troops from Dali to participate in quelling the rebellion of the Yang family and consolidating the Dali royal family."
"Four campaigns in ten years, plus sporadic battles, it can be said that the battle will last forever."
"Whenever a soldier from Erlin kills a person, a line of red paint will be added to his armor, which is called a 'note of honor'."
"The brave soldiers in the army, those with as many as fifty honors, need to be courteous even if they meet the generals of Fuyuan. Therefore, the Dun'an army is proud of every victory, regardless of skill and morale, it reaches its peak."
"The Dun'an Army was formerly the barbarian soldiers of the Erlin Tribe. It is located in the mountains and forests, in the place of the Four Wars, and it is in the company of tigers and bears. Its combat power is already strong, no less than that of Xixia Bubazi."
"Since the discovery of fine iron, its combat power has been upgraded to a higher level. A tribe of soldiers. Their equipment includes leather armor, bow boots, leather goods, detachable cold steel armor, and rattan shields; weapons include a Miao knife that is four and a half feet long.
, plus five soft-tail throwing spears.”
"Including luggage, water bottles, and a complete set of equipment, the amount is no less than 30 guan. A hoarding army of 3,000 people, with equipment alone, can reach as much as 90,000 guan."
Han Qi, Fu Bi and Zhao Shu could not help but take a breath of cold air. They have a mine at home, so they are really willful!
"Let's talk about the Crane Controlling Army. The equipment of the Crane Controlling Army is slightly simpler. Except for the lack of armor, each person has a crane-shin crossbow. The team is led by veterans, who often carry double crossbows with forty-five arrows. They also have a leather backpack, a water bottle, a first aid kit, and a helmet.
Waiting for equipment."
"Their equipment is less, but it is more expensive than the Dun'an Army. The cost of the crane-shank crossbow is more than seventy pieces!"
"In the past, the short weapon of the Crane Control Army was the bayonet. After several battles, they felt that the engineer shovel was more useful, so they switched to the engineer shovel as their standard equipment."
"The composition of the two Jisizhou sergeants is different from that of the Song Dynasty. In the Erlin tribe, in terms of military merits, in addition to gold and silver rewards, fields, cattle and sheep, there is another important point. The warriors have the highest status and the most important military merits.
This is quite similar to Qin Fa."
"In Jiangyang City, the soldiers are miners from all over the country. The miners work together in teams. They have some military qualities and are used to military life. In addition to military merit rewards, if one person joins the army, the whole family will receive many preferential treatment."
"Not only are household labor taxes exempted, but officials also send gifts and condolences during holidays and festivals. Those who have achieved great success in war, such as those who have won the imperial examination, are beaten by gongs and drums, deliver good news, and boast to their neighbors."
"Every sergeant has a large amount of insurance, which is managed by Sitong Bank. On weekdays, a small part is deducted from the military salary. Once the war is over, the sergeant's family can receive a hundred times the compensation, because his military salary is already high, so this amount
The money is at least a hundred dollars or more."
"To hold and control the two armies is not worthy of assassination. However, every time we recruit troops, various villages compete for quotas. When there is a person who fights with weapons, there is no one else. He has a profit ear and a glory ear."
"It is said that under a heavy reward, there must be a brave man. This is not only related to local folk customs, but also related to the policies of local leaders."
"Officials and privy councilors use these two moons as the starting point for an army that is well-equipped, well-trained, battle-hardened, and eager for meritorious deeds, and is used as an analogy to give two liters of rice and three hundred salt and vegetables per month.
It is simply unreasonable to recruit Shaanxi Xiangyong who have never been trained to fight at short notice. Even the regular military households issued with tattooed faces are difficult to match. "" If you can barely compare, only the Northern Prefecture of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the First Zhou Dynasty
Controlling cranes can be called..."
A group of big guys were dumbfounded. They only knew that these two armies could fight, but they didn't know that there were so many things underneath that could be fought.
Is this made by piles of money, or piled up continuously for many years... It is impossible to replicate it in their hands.
The topic returned to Ci Yong's matter.
Sima Guang spoke sincerely: "Your Majesty, when your Majesty came to the throne last year, I asked you to pay attention to preparing the border. The so-called preparation is not only to add troops and horses, to store grain and grass, but also to select generals and build military and political affairs."
"Today's generals who are not talented are not heard to be improved, and those whose military and political affairs are decadent are not heard to be improved." "When emergencies arise, people who cultivate mulberry fields without any reason are recruited to serve as soldiers. This... this is
'Kill without teaching'! This is not what a benevolent person would do!"
"In the Kangding and Qingli years, people from Shaanxi were village archers. At first, they issued an imperial edict, saying that they only needed to protect the countryside and would not send regular troops to garrison the border." However, the imperial government did not accept the imperial edict.
Ci Zhichong Baojie commanded and ordered the border guards to be garrisoned. "At that time, I was in Dingyou, Shaanxi Province, and I can still remember what happened. This is a breach of trust by the people, and it is also not the behavior of a benevolent person!"
"Your Majesty, the people have grown up in peace and do not know about gold and leather. Once they are mobilized as soldiers, from the west of Shaanxi, every family will be mourned and every household will be plundered." When people are recorded in Dingkou, they often escape and are imprisoned by officials.
He is his parents and wife, so we are hunting him down urgently, and at the same time, we are selling his farmland to pay for the reward!"
"Your Majesty, after the assassination, the military commanders profited from their family wealth and were tortured and tortured. Officials were unable to support themselves with food and clothing, so they had to be supplemented by additional subsidies. The local warriors who were garrisoning on the border had to be provided by their families thousands of miles away. Parents' property
, the family's savings are disappearing with each passing day, until they are all gone, Your Majesty..."
Sima Guang's face was filled with tears as he spoke: "Your Majesty, the only things the villagers have learned in their lives are mulberry trees and grass, armor, crossbows, and crossbows. How can they be proficient in it if they are taught for several days a month? When facing the enemy, as soon as there is something,
If there is an opportunity, I will first think about escaping. Not only will I lose my life, but I will also implicate the army..."
"Your Majesty, later on, the officials realized that they were useless, so they made a large number of people, gave them public possessions, and ordered them to return home. However, these children have been idle for a long time and are unwilling to do the work of farming anymore. In addition, the fields are empty and they return home.
There is no hope, everyone is homeless and frozen, and they don’t know where they are..."
"Your Majesty, the elders of Shaanxi have spoken so far, and everyone has cried bitterly. The tragedy in the Qingli Year must never happen again today. Your Majesty, just listen to me, it is absolutely impossible to do this. I look forward to Your Majesty Zhen Nian Sheng
People, please go to bed early!"
After saying this, he took off his hat and said: "Your Majesty, if you think that what I have said is too broad-minded and cannot be implemented, it means that your knowledge is ignorant and dark, and you cannot taint the list of remonstrances for a long time. I hope you will choose talented people to replace them."
Following Lu's instructions, the remonstrators acted in unison: "If your majesty does not accept it, we are ashamed to be in the stage to remonstrate, so please stop banishing us!"
Han Qi's hair and beard were all bulging: "How can this be true! How can we be so arbitrary when we are just discussing things now?! You all know how to love the people and be kind, don't you know that I don't know?"
Take your time, the crime depends on the severity!"
"If we don't mobilize the country's bravery, what should we do if Liang Zuo comes to the west and joins His Majesty in hunting at Bianqiao? Do you want the alliance under the city to reappear today?!"
Fu Bi also advised: "Your Majesty, illnesses have different priorities and different treatments. All women and children know that slow medicine should not be given for acute illnesses."
Today is different. "Today I am brave, I only sacrifice for a moment, and I just hold on safely. If your Majesty shows mercy, I only need to slowly make up for it later."
"Last year, Sima Junshi impeached Zhang Fangping for raising police in Weizhou, which led to Fang Ping's resignation. Later, when he was appointed magistrate of the state, he did not dare to guard the state, so he allowed Zuo to join the invaders, plundering more than 10,000 people, and killing countless people. It is not clear at a glance which one is right and which is wrong.
?"
"If the regular army is absolutely available, who would be willing to act righteously? Your Majesty, this is the lesser of two evils..."
