The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire

Seeing those relatives reunited, the parents looked at the son, the wife supported the husband, and the child hugged the father's thigh. The happy scene of the family is full of happiness on their faces.

There was also a happy smile on Zhong Yu's face. He knew from the beginning that many people would not die in this expedition, and there might even be no casualties. Of course, some bad luck but exceptions.

Then why did he have to be so heavy and serious when he set out on the expedition? I just want to run in those troops through such an expedition and let them understand the cruelty of war.

And during the march, train them slowly so that they can grow up quickly. It is better to say it a hundred times than to do it once. It is better to train them for dozens of days than to bring them to fight a battle, even if the battle is bloodless. .

As for the people, they can also use such a war to make them think that they will inevitably lose a heavy war, that they will lose their relatives, and that their families will be broken.

Through this feeling of despair and helplessness, when they brought their family back intact, they were between great joy and great sorrow. At the moment of despair, because of themselves, they saw the light and hope from the despair.

Then their loyalty to themselves, their sense of identity, will increase infinitely, and their sense of belonging to the territory will increase infinitely. He will also treat himself as a real person from this other world, and settle down completely.

With those janitors, they quickly returned to the lord's mansion. After passing through several winding corridors, I came to the study room all the way.

He changed his black samurai uniform and put on more comfortable white casual clothes. Zhong Yuming's servants made a cup of carefully prepared strong tea, and immediately drove all the servants out, ordering that no one could come in without his own order.

Kneeling alone in front of the case, watching the mist in the tea, the mixed thoughts in my heart slowly calmed down.

When he was a little irritable by himself, he always had a habit of sitting quietly in the study, thinking quietly, and sorting everything out until his mood was completely calmed down.

After I figured out a few questions, I will summarize it thoroughly. What have I gained from this war? What have you not thought about?

First of all, the total population of 2,500 people obtained by myself has completely reached the upgrade task of the territory, 1,000 households and 5,000 people, and you can follow the system prompt to upgrade later.

Then, he established four gathering points in the Aisen tribe, which is the west of Luoyang City. There is also a small city in it, which can provide supplies for its own army and then go west. You can also provide strong support for a place of forty miles in a radius of 40 miles.

Moreover, with the experience of this expedition, what I will do next is the sweeping of the north of Luoyang City, that is, the direction of the Mengla tribe, which can provide very useful experience, so that I don’t have to be so panicked and overwhelmed.

Finally, it is also a very important thing, that is, after this time of running-in, the Han army under my command and the Han people have greatly improved their sense of belonging and loyalty, and they can make their future rule, More stable, not so easy to shake.

The harvest has been finished, so let's talk about the places where you have some thoughts!

There is nothing else to say about it, the main thing is that I am a little short of troops. Out with all the armies. There are no necessary people left to defend the territory, which makes the defense of the territory very empty. A few dozen or one hundred people can break through.

Furthermore, I was a little too greedy for merit and had insufficient strength in my hands. When I couldn't absolutely suppress the savage servant army, I continued to lead people to sweep those tribes, which almost led to a mutiny.

But fortunately, he passed a battle in a timely manner and showed his strength, so that those careerists did not dare to act rashly, and promptly eliminated such a turmoil that was likely to greatly damage his strength.

In the future, I can't take risks like this anymore, and every time I go out, I have to leave some people to guard my base Luoyang City.

If the expedition failed, there is nothing to worry too much about. As long as your Luoyang City is still there, you can recruit a new batch of troops and horses at any time to fight against those enemies.

There is an example in ancient times, which tells Zhong Yu this truth realistically. That is when Chu and Han were fighting, and Han Gaozu Liu Bang and the overlord Xiang Yu fought a battle of unification that lasted for eight years.

That war was extremely tragic. At the end of the Qin Dynasty, there were about 30 million people in the country, but in these short eight years, it was reduced to 8 million. Even the emperor's car was looking for eight horses with the same coat color. Can't find it.

In the battles between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, there were several battles involving hundreds of thousands of people, and there were countless small battles involving tens of thousands or less.

In the most famous battle of Pengcheng, Liu Bang's army of 560,000 was completely killed by Xiang Yu's 30,000 cavalry.

But in just one or two years, he pulled out his army of several hundred thousand, and once again confronted Xiang Yu in the area of ​​Xiangyang.

In the early days of the war, Liu Bang's battle was still very unfavorable. The dead were counted in thousands, and the losses were very fast. However, his fundamental, Shudi and Guanzhong have not suffered any war.

Under the dispatch of his subordinate Xiao He, men of the right age were organized one after another, and those with a little training were sent to the battlefield, becoming cannon fodder that can be consumed without money.

As for Xiang Yu, his place is the largest and the population is the largest, but it is surrounded by enemies. There are rebellions and beacon smoke everywhere in the territory, and no place is peaceful. The people under his rule are very disappointed in him.

Therefore, within his own territory, he can't recruit a few soldiers, and can only rely on his previous foundation to slowly consume and gradually die.

This is a good illustration of how important a stable rear is! Zhong Yu himself estimated that in the next two years or so, the political center and economic center of his ruling center will be concentrated in Luoyang City.

This will be the hub of one's own territory, just like the heart of the human body, it will continuously provide fresh blood for the future development of one's own territory, and provide continuous power and resources for its future expansion.

With this Luoyang City, located in the innermost part of his territory, with the endless forest as shelter at the end, no one will be able to penetrate his abdomen.

As for himself, in addition to leaving some necessary troops to maintain law and order, and suppressing some possible rebellions, he will be able to take his own troops to expedition without any scruples.

The land around Luoyang is flat and fertile, and hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land can be developed. This fertile land will grow enough food to support its conquest and expansion year after year.

I can completely imitate Cao Cao of the Three Kingdoms, and cultivate the fields around Xudu, the capital of my own country, and open up wasteland to expand the land.

At that time, 23/10 of the wealth in the world will come from this; 2/3 of the food in the world will come from this; this. I am afraid that those enemies, or those who have a plan, will have to sigh: Oh, the essence of the world is gathered here, how can we do it?

At that time, as long as there is no chaos around the country, even if there is fire everywhere in the country, you will have the capital to come back again.
