Dajin picked up a god of war

Chapter 495
Why are they still not firing?
Xie Xuan's bones are crying, and Xie Xuan's head hurts.

Although he was still in his prime, his energy couldn't compare to Wang Mi and the others who were twenty-year-olds.

At this moment, his biggest expectation is to immediately rush to the Jingkou Camp, take a shower, change clothes, and rest comfortably on the bed.

However, young people do not think so.

They look at me and I look at you, obviously they have something to say.

"What do you think?"

In order to leave early, Xie Xuan had to be the first to ask questions.

Behind several generals, the soldiers of Beifu are also looking forward to it, and they also want to go home as soon as possible!
wife!

child!

And that hot kang head!

"General Xie, regarding the arrangement of the soldiers from Jingkou, the junior still has some ideas. I don't know if I should talk about it or not."

Xie Xuan's mouth twitched, revealing a clear look.

Hehe, I know you are trying to make trouble on this matter.

Xie Xuan suddenly admired himself a little bit, right!
It should be said that Wang Mi's speech raised his admiration for him to a higher level.

The old man really is as expected!

"But it doesn't matter."

You can't say no, just look at the faces of those young generals and you can tell that this is their common opinion.

It's just to let Wang Mi, the highest official, the most respectable, of course, the person who can express the most to speak out.

Sure enough, it is still the Jingkou Gang!

It won't change anywhere.

Taking advantage of the moment when Wang Mi was too embarrassed to speak, Xie Xuanjiang could clearly see the expressions on the faces of the several young generals present.

They are all in the same heart as Wang Mi!

There were even some people, such as the slick boss He Mai, who kept looking at Wang Mi with an expression of admiration.

"In my humble opinion, soldiers from Jingkou can rest in Jingkou for a short time, but they cannot be scattered in Jingkou for a long time."

"What does this mean?" Xie Xuan frowned, obviously really confused.

"I don't understand, old man, talk carefully."

He could probably hear Wang Mi's ultimate goal, which was to prevent all the soldiers from Jingkou from disbanding in place.

But the problem is, if Wang Mi and the others have this kind of thinking in mind, it's fine to just say it directly, why do they have to be around the corner.

"My subordinates believe that the soldiers of Jingkou nationality are indeed more capable of fighting, and their style is resolute and sturdy, but once they are allowed to rest in the countryside for a long time, their martial arts will definitely deteriorate, and their physical strength will not be as good as before."

"It is true that when the soldiers return from the war, they must be given time to rest so that they can be reunited with their families."

"However, the subordinate believes that this period of time should not be too long."

"The soldiers from Jingkou are different from ordinary refugees. They are often drafted into the army and have a strong willingness to fight."

"Such soldiers, after a period of rest, it is better to call them back to Beifu for daily drills and familiarity with military affairs, isn't it better?"

"Don't wait until the war is imminent, and then go to recruit soldiers temporarily. Although the soldiers are usually trained before the war, but after all, it is just to sharpen the gun before the battle, the effect is not good, and it also affects the morale of the soldiers."

"How can this be done?"

"Are you saying that Beifu has been supporting these Jingkou soldiers?"

Xie Xuan opened his mouth, and Wang Mi finally knew where the problem he had been struggling with was.

money!
to be honest!
It's all about money!

"Indeed."

Although Wang Mi knew that the Jin Dynasty had no money, and the money that could belong to the imperial court was very small, he still couldn't tell lies.

So far, why did the Jin Dynasty always win less and lose more in the confrontation between the North and the South?
It boils down to one point, because the standing troops of the Jin Dynasty were too few!
The Jin Dynasty was no different from the barbarians in Jiangyou, and their soldiers were always in a state of preparation, always ready to mount on horseback.

Although they would not support too many soldiers for a long time in name, but in fact, it is basically equivalent to long-term support.

Taking the former Qin as an example, although they controlled a vast territory, they could not use all the young and strong men in the territory.

Because more people in the territory are Han people, on the one hand, the Han people are not willing to be driven by foreigners.

On the other hand, the Di people also did not trust the Han people.

Not only did they not trust their loyalty, but they also did not trust their combat ability. After all, the strongest team in this era was the cavalry.

In all fairness, on the horses, the average combat capability of the Han people is definitely not the opponent of the Di people.Since we are strong ourselves, why do we have to go to great lengths to train the Han people?
There are few Di people entering the customs. This is not because they do not want to move to the Central Plains, but because their population base is small.

If they can't gather their strength and suppress them with force, it should be said that if the Di people are scattered and thrown into the Central Plains, the Di people will soon feel the thrill of the mud cow entering the sea.

After the Di people entered the Central Plains, although they gave up their nomadic life and settled down, their basic living units did not change, and they were still dominated by tribal systems.

Just like the tribes of the Xianbei and Qiang people, although they surrendered to Di Qin, they were still the original tribal leaders who led the tribes.

Di people and Xianbei people, their soldiers are always on call, and they can be used, because they basically maintain the combat system on weekdays, and their training has not fallen behind.

More importantly, riding a horse is the way of life of the Di people and Xianbei people. Their men are born to love this, and they have a bow and a crossbow in their hands. It is the norm.

As long as you can get the heads together (which is pretty easy too), get on horseback and you can fight.

But these things, Jin people can't do it at all.

In terms of resident population, there are not many Jin people, but there are too few soldiers who can fight.

Di Qin of Jiangyou could separate farming and warfare. Their warfare relied more on the original tribal soldiers, while farming and provision of food were carried out by the Han people under their rule.

Di people are not good at farming.Once the two sides cooperated tacitly, it would appear that Di Qin's troops were more capable and active in combat.

But it is obviously impossible for the Jin people to do so.

Whether it is in the south or the north, the main way of life of the majority of the Han people is farming, planting in spring and harvesting in autumn.

Even in war, their plunder is limited, not like a tribe, like a locust crossing the border.

Whether to work in agriculture or in the army is an important question that has long plagued the Han-dominated army.

If the army raises too much, it will affect the grain harvest. Similarly, if there are too many farmers, they will be recruited temporarily to serve as soldiers, and the combat effectiveness will be unreasonable.

This dialectical truth, although no one has explained it thoroughly for Xie Xuan, he is very clear.

Long-term training is equivalent to supporting this part of the soldiers, making them professional soldiers and no longer participating in agricultural production.

This is absolutely unacceptable to the Jin Dynasty, which established an agricultural country.
