Chapter 899: : Have southerners eat your rice?

Counting the past dynasties in detail, only the Qin State in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period was the only one who could achieve the best mobilization.

After the Qin State became the Qin Empire, only Qin Land was enjoying the fruits of the past reforms. The population registration and management system ensured the foundation of mobilization ability. The rest of the territory for expansion was laid down as the later the mobilization ability and management became worse.

The population of the dynasties of Zhu Xia has always been much larger than that of the surrounding areas, but the large population does not mean that the war potential is high, and even the national power cannot use more than 30%.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the population was about 50 to 60 million, but the troops that can be called the Ming army have never exceeded one million. The relevant data shows that it is 800,000. But in fact, this data is very fictitious, even just data. At that time, the army had no combat effectiveness long ago, and the real combat effectiveness was what the generals called the "jiading".

According to the economic strength at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the funds received by the center accounted for less than 6% of the total commercial output value. Therefore, it is really difficult to understand whether the central government can maintain the country's shelf, or maintain the country's operation under the current situation of internal and external troubles.

"From now on, we need to prepare for big battles and tough battles." Liu Yan needs to save some snacks. It is not certain that one day Constantius II and Shapur II will convulsions together, uniting more countries and Han to make it difficult: "The ridiculous thing about Ma Fang Nanshan will never happen to the big man, and the training of soldiers in the village community can't absolutely stop!"

Liu Yan kept repeating these words. The military attache listened very energeticly, and the civilian officials also knew that national defense is not a trivial matter.

Their generation has experienced the darkest moments, and everyone knows the importance of military strength.

It took five tragic turmoil to make everyone understand the tragic end of the lack of self-protection. It is also the common aspiration of officials and people to ensure national defense capabilities. That is why Liu Yan has been supported by military force.

However, Liu Yan is not really aggressive, but often ignores people's livelihood.

"Perhaps it is time to get rid of the two, and focus on dealing with Rouran, Xigao and Donggao." Xu Zheng said that the two are the Murong Remnant and Tuoba Remnant who have been fighting and stopping: "It also made them gasp. Long enough."

Ran Min immediately became interested: "If it is to launch a decisive battle, please make sure to make Min a general."

Liu Yan looked at Ran Min, just smiled, thinking about whether Ran Min should finish it.

It is not easy to say how many real generals are in the Han State. The Han army's guarantee of combat effectiveness is never dependent on a certain general, but strictly trained officers supporting the military's shelf.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the structure of the Han army designed by Liu Yan, the existence of commanding generals is only as decision-makers. Their greatest role is to coordinate the direction of the army’s offensive. It will never cause the army to fail because of the lack of excellent generals. Will fight.

The contemporary Han army does not rely on the charm of a certain general to have high morale. Soldiers may not know what they should do, but officers are very clear about what duties they should perform.

If there is no commander to lead the command, the army will become stiff and sluggish because there is no commander to coordinate in time. The offense may be insufficient, but the defense is definitely more than enough.

In the current Han army, the senior generals who can fight have a very distinctive background.

Taiwei was born in the north, and General Hussar was also a northerner. General Zhengbei and General Zhengnan were also northerners.

General Zhengnan and General Zhengxi were southerners, but they were given the rank of general later, and there was no sense of their existence at all in the early battles.

Liu Yan later arranged Xie An to go to the Western Regions and Huan Wen to the Asan Continent, mainly because he wanted the two generals from the south to have a sense of presence, and that was also part of the balance of the imperial court.

Not only the high-level balance, the army also needs to be balanced. For example, most of the soldiers who set off on the three continents came from the south.

Balance is everywhere. As a ruler, we must know how to ensure balance. Otherwise, it will not be verbal abuse of "map guns" between each other. The discrimination between the North and the South has evolved into a barrier between different regions.

In many cases, because balance is not emphasized, a small seed planted may grow into a towering tree that overwhelms the balance and leads to the country's subjugation.

The various dynasties of Zhuxia have been in a very long period of time, because the main threat comes from the relationship in the north, and the people who participated in the war in person were basically the northerners, and it was difficult for the war to have any direct relationship with most southerners. But the southerners are not without any contribution, that is, the resources that the southerners pay and produce are used for national defense.

Road restrictions make it difficult for southern troops (including humans) to appear on the battlefield where they should appear in a short period of time, even if they are deliberately mobilized.

Many times, the war was over before the army from the South arrived on the battlefield.

This is the most frequent, and in the end, the country is not easy to mobilize troops from the south. Repeated mobilizations have not come in handy. The waste of military expenditure is one aspect, and it has also caused a great blow to production.

Either the army in the south is still halfway through, and the national defense in the north has been breached. The war is no longer fought at the border of the country, but in the hinterland. The southern army that has gone halfway is dismantled to various cities as a city defense army.

It was taken apart! The geographical label is instantly weakened infinitely. Then the chief officer of each city must not be the leading southern officer, either the city’s guard, or the northern generals who are temporarily transferred to get acquainted with the northern enemy. Whether they lose or win, the southern army is inseparable. A dragon's fate.

In history, there are not many examples of the power of the southern army. The most famous but tragic one is the Danyang soldiers led by Danyang people under Li Ling.

The southern army was also full of tragedy. Both the Beiwei army and the Qi's army were filthy and obliterated by the national center.

So if you count it ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ you can really fight when you are born in the south. The key is that all three legions were killed by the court.

The war in the early Han Dynasty was nothing like the southerners. It was when Liu Yan and the Hus headed by the Jie clan were smashing, and the south of the Yangtze River was still under the rule of the small imperial court.

The Han army fought for unification in the sixth year of Yuanshuo. For a long time after the settlement of the small imperial court, the wars with Tuoba Daiguo and Murong Yanguo did not use the southern army.

At that time, the southern army was either commanded by Huan Wen to clean up uncooperative families and tycoons, or they were fighting the southern barbarians.

Even now, there is actually no established army from the south in northern Xinjiang. The army that belongs to the south is either in the Indochina Peninsula or is transferred to the Asan Continent.

"This time, Huan Wen has played a majesty in Asan Continent." Xu Zheng couldn't help being a little bit sour. There are already two countries under the direct command of Huan Wen, and they are not even a country with a big booger: "One shot. With four Tinghou, two townships, and one county, the number of princes is as many as twenty-four, which can be compared with Li Guangli's expedition to Dawan."

Liu Yan was taken aback when he heard it, and compared Huan Wen with Li Guangli. Is Xu Zheng vilifying or cursing Huan Wen?
