Sweep the World

Isn't this another Little Ice Age in the world? The current extent of the Arctic Circle is about 1.5 times that of the 21st century AD, and there are many areas that have been in ice and snow for many years.

The current navigation of the Han Kingdom has gradually developed. After the countries of the Wo Lie islands were included in the vassal state system, there were ships that continued to explore north. They used stargazing to maintain their routes, but on the north side of the Wo Lie islands they were endlessly covered. The ice and snow blocked the way.

Of course, the Bering Strait is to the north of the Wa Islands, but the sea area is no longer called by this name, it is named "Ice Plain Sea".

At present, there is indeed no such place as the Bering Strait. It is not even the sea at all, it is in a state of being frozen in a large area.

After Liu Yan received the report, he was already recruiting warriors, intending to try to walk through the ice and snow, and wondered if he could go directly to the American continent.

Some modern scientists have discovered through research that the appearance of the earth is not permanent, and that the various continental plates have slowly evolved from the original concentration into separate continental plates. They don’t know what methods were used. Assuming that the birthplace of mankind is in Africa, after tens of millions of years of migration to various continents, the reason why there are white people, yellow people, black people, and brown people , That's because human beings adapt to the local environment in the process of evolution.

Biology, because of the difference in the environment, genes will always adapt themselves. It’s like some people speculate that after the interstellar age, as humans migrate to various planets, the appearance of humans will change due to the differences of each planet. For example, planets with lower gravity will generally be taller, and planets with high gravity will generally be taller. The short stature, the other is that humans living in low-gravity planets look tall but have very weak bones. Humans living in high gravity look small but have extremely strong bones.

If there is a kind of people in one place, Liu Yan knows that the Arctic is not completely unpopulated. There are a group of Eskimos living there, so people must be able to adapt to various environments. The difference is that they need to be extremely cruelly eliminated.

Now I think there are a lot of people migrating north. Tuoba and Murong in Xianbei have already started operations. What Liu Yan knows is that Tuobagu is already operating the Xianbei grassland, but he doesn’t know that after Murong Xianbei also went to join in the fun, Tuoba Xianbei and Murong Xianbei developed peacefully together, or played out a unique tribe.

The Xianbei grassland is now considered to be in the Arctic Circle, with the North Sea (Lake Baikal) as the middle line, and the north is affected by the Little Ice Age. The land is in the season of ice and snow for more than five months in a year.

Six months of the year are winter. It is destined that there will not be enough living supplies. The nomads are still extremely dependent on the pastures. Liu Yan can be sure that if the weather does not pick up, even if the Xianbei can live there again, the population will definitely decrease. Rather than increase the state.

Sufficient food is needed to multiply more people. This also makes Liu Yan agree with the need for the development of internal affairs, but he doesn’t like the sound of complete suppression. For some people who have solved the neighboring countries, they should make swords and plows and put horses in Nanshan. His remarks are even more disgusting.

"Launch the offensive in early May." Liu Yan has been standing in front of the mountains and rivers map, watching a group of standing generals at this moment: "The widows have already mobilized the imperial guards, and they will first invade the country of Yan from the rear."

Xu was shocked immediately, and immediately said: "That's really good."

Not only because of the well-known warfare and toughness of the Imperial Guards, but also because the invasion of Murong Yan from two directions is the appropriate method of tactics.

Many people are always wondering why they should be divided into multiple paths to expand from different directions, because they clearly have enough forces. They think that it is the correct way to concentrate their forces in one place, and they can effectively fight with superior forces, but they have not Thinking about the consumption of the army, I never thought that the larger the force, the greater the pressure on logistics. Furthermore, multi-channel offensive actually serves as a containment function. It is also used to disperse the enemy's forces. There is more insurance. After all, as long as there is a way to open a breakthrough, the defensive party must be more passive.

Of course, war is not static. The ability of commanders should be taken into consideration. It is more important to understand the quality of the army. Otherwise, the correct method of warfare uses the wrong people, or the army does not have the required qualities. The tactics that will win are the result of defeat. The tricks of the Republic of China

The land of Murong Yan State is not too large, that is, it occupies a considerable area of ​​Yuyang County, Youbeiping County, Liaoxi County, Liaodong County, Xuantu County in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and naturally there is also a considerable area of ​​grassland.

In comparison with the territory, the territory of the Kingdom of Murong Yan is also a prefecture of the Kingdom of Han, with a population of about 1.8 million. According to intelligence, there is an army of more than 300,000. Tuoba Shiyijian brought Tuoba with him. Xianbei went to seek refuge and added about 30,000 friendly troops to Murong Xianbei.

After all, it should be the stage of Murong Xianbei's rise. If there was no such a spoiler as Liu Yan, it would take them about ten years to smash all the neighboring countries except Shi Jie Zhao and gain wealth. It cannot be calculated, and the population has also increased considerably.

A country that is in the ascendant stage and a country that is going downhill, the war capabilities presented by different states are absolutely incomparable. Most of the history of the world is looking at countries with small territories and small populations, but they can win consecutive battles when challenging behemoths, and even swallow the elephant with a snake. That is the spiritual outlook and spirit of the two countries from top to bottom. The result.

Murong Yan’s army, which has continuously won victories from beating neighboring countries and forces, is in its heyday. Murong Yan’s army is also the only one who fought with the Han army and did not appear to be weak. It can even be said that the Han army has failed many times. In the middle is to miss in the hands of Murong Yanjun.

In terms of morale, there is no gap between the Han army and Murong Yan's army...

The development of the Han nation from scratch is to go from one victory to another. The confidence that the army should have has long been cultivated, and the country is completely better than Murong Yan in terms of territory and population.

In fact, Murong Yanguo also went from one victory to the next. They learned of their strength from the weaker enemy. What slightly affected the morale of the army was that they could not bully the weak from the power when facing the Han army. The worry is that he cannot afford to lose but the Han army can afford to lose.

"The big man has 13 standing armies and 50,000 imperial guards. It can summon no less than 700,000 soldiers from counties and counties. There is a need to form a million army of the next echelon!" When Xu Zheng said this, his face was red. , The next sentence is: "How many people are in the country of Yan? If the 300,000 army is defeated, it will be gone. If you want to kill you, you can make up another forty to 50,000 people. We will destroy them!"

It sounds very encouraging, but it shouldn't be the lieutenant of a country.

There are thirteen standing troops in Han, but only six are on the battlefield of attacking Yan. In addition, they are scattered in multiple positions.

There is only one Dingxiang left in Shi Jie Zhao Kingdom, which is actually destroyed. The difference is when Liu Yan ordered to capture alive or kill Shi Hu who did not know his health status.

Because of Tuoba Shiyijian, Tuoba Daiguo was frightened and disintegrated on its own. Shengle was captured by the Han army earlier, and the grasslands in Monan also belonged to the Han kingdom.

Zhang’s Liangguo thought about peaceful mergers because of his lack of confidence. He joined the big family of Han to share the dividends of the winners. Now he has entered the negotiation stage. If Liu Yan did not want to kill him, he might leave one behind. The future troubles... or it is called a legacy of history, but Zhang's Liang Country is destined to disappear as a country.

At present, the front line that Han has to deal with has been decreasing. In addition to maintaining sufficient forces in the northwest to deter Xiliang, most of the Fu clan in the basin is under surveillance, which means there is no need to invest much more troops here, and they can even be deployed. Used on other fronts.

The Huqi shogunate entered the final stage of the grave because of Shijie Zhao. The center has already included the dissolution of the Huqi shogunate in the process. At the time, some troops were left as garrisons in various places. Will be limited.

The south includes the Shu area. After a long period of suppression by Huan Wen, hostile forces that do not obey the rule are either killed or feared. The next step is to garrison the county soldiers. In order to continue to build up his military exploits, Huan Wen has begun to request the central government to go south to the Indian subcontinent, and find Lin Yi and Funan unhappy.

Regarding Huan Wen's request, the center is still hesitating for the time being, believing that Lin Yi and Funan don't need two standing armies at all. At most, they can complete the goal of destroying the country and occupying land by deploying one standing armies. And just the next standing army to the south does not need to be at the level of General Zhengnan. The highest level is to lead the army in the army, or to dispatch only one general.

With the reduction of the front line, there are many new problems that need to be solved. For example, several generals at the level of "Zheng" will most likely have to live on their merits in the future. Should the generals at the level of "town" be ruled out? Established to become a new problem.

Huan Wen, the General Zhengnan’s recent depression, was that his opponents in the south could not use him. He sought to lead his troops to the south and there was no reply. He wondered whether to bring the ocean under the jurisdiction of the shogunate. Since there is no opponent, find an opponent.

There is no need to worry that those who have no opponents are those who are conquered by General Li Tan in the North and Xie An, General in the South Zhonglang, Li Tan and Xi Gaoche in the northern grasslands. Xie An needs to make necessary plans and preparations for the invasion of the Western Regions. One is that General Lv Tai of Zhengdong still has Xianbei grassland and Donggaoche after solving Murong Yanguo. It is a bit difficult to determine whether Rouran should be in charge of General Zhengbei Shogunate or General Zhengdong Shogunate.

"How long will Meiyanghou come?" Liu Yan said that Meiyanghou was Ran Min. He got the answer and then continued: "The Huqi shogunate was disbanded. Meiyanghou participated in the invasion of Yan and no longer established an independent shogunate. Peking’s first offensive was handed over to him."

In Han, there is no fixed organization under the command of any general. They all establish the shogunate under the permission of the central government, and how many troops are transferred into the command system of the shogunate according to needs. This is actually to avoid the emergence of a military town, so although there are generals with the word "town" level, no generals of that level have been appointed.

Liu Yan is very aware of the hidden dangers of a long-term general under the fixed command of the army, and is already thinking about whether necessary reforms should be made instead of establishing some powers and not making appointments.

To be clear, in the framework of the national system, especially what official position is appointed now, it may not be accidental that the official position will be taken to death by a certain person, or even if a certain official of this generation dies, the next generation will heir. To inherit, the appointment of many positions really needs to be cautious.

Liu Yan's strength has left many of the official posts that clearly existed but no one is there. Although no one dares to have any objections, the hidden dangers have not been eliminated. His plan is to make necessary changes to the national system after the surrounding threats are removed, and the military system will also undergo substantial restructuring, such as the abolition of the generals such as "levying", "town", "ping", and "fu." Change to a general number that is not specifically directed.

Many modern countries will set up theaters (front armies). In fact, the cold weapon era has long existed, such as the frontier armies of the Central Plains in a certain direction. In Liu Yan's series of plans, an offensive country does not need the existence of a frontier army at all. Anyway, it just keeps going out. It can only be a real-time theater or a targeted front army.

There are thirteen standing armies in the Han State. These standing armies will not fix which standing army should have a long-term expectation. This is the foreshadowing that Liu Yan laid in advance.

Liu Yan's plan is that no matter how many standing troops there are, they will be attributed to the national defense force. These standing army will not have a fixed frontline commander besides the generals of the army ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ and the generals will rotate for many years. When necessary, how many standing armies are deployed to form a group army, and a person appointed by a certain center will serve as the commander of the group army. If the size of the group army is not enough, it will become a corps.

Group army, corps... Does it sound modern? However, in fact, regardless of the group army or the corps, it is actually called the cold weapon era, and records can be found in the East or the West.

Actually... Liu Yan wanted to create a system of major generals, lieutenant generals, generals, and marshals, but doing so would be a matter for the upper ranks of the military alone, and a series of reforms would also need to be carried out from the grassroots.

[Perhaps it is really going to be done like this...] Liu Yan has already said what he should say. How to arrange an offensive against Murong Yan Guo only needs to grasp the general direction. The details are those of the generals and the long history (that is, the staff). thing. He once again walked and thought: [We are about to enter the age of firearms. Although cold weapons will not be completely eliminated for a while, it is absolutely necessary to reform the military system first. 】

Liu Yan said that in the age of firearms, it is not just that the system is about to be upgraded. In fact, the gunpowder research that he has personally grasped has already yielded results, but he felt that the timing was wrong and did not enlarge it.
