Li An is not worried that other Congresses will come up later and step the Great Tang Empire under their feet. Nowadays, all high-tech and talents are concentrated in the Great Tang Empire. For many cutting-edge talents, the Great Tang Empire is specially protected. Will allow them to leave the Great Tang, and even will not allow them to leave the capital. For example, the talents of the Research & Development Center can only choose to live around the capital, there is basically no opportunity to go out, otherwise if they are caught, they will They are regarded as fugitives, to be precise technical fugitives. After all, it was the Great Tang Empire who trained them. Therefore, they must always serve Great Tang. The remuneration can be very high, but they must not leave their jobs or serve other countries.

Similar to the protection of talents, the Great Tang Empire ’s blockade of technology is also at the highest level. All technologies that are critical to the development of the Great Tang are to be blocked. They will definitely not be mastered by other countries, and many of the highest level The technical information is in the hands of Li An. As long as Li An does not treason, these technical materials will not flow out, and Li An has a lot of escort protection when he goes out. There is no possibility of being kidnapped. At the foot of The Son of Heaven, nobody There is such a big capacity.

Under such circumstances, Li An naturally does not have to worry about the Great Tang being surpassed by other countries. It is not so urgent to promote firearms in the army on a large scale, but Li An continues to develop and manufacture a small number of firearms or it will not stop. It’s time to accumulate the technology first, and if it is necessary in the future, it is also too late to carry out large-scale production.

After considering these circumstances, Li An decided to pour cold water on Guo Ziyi, so that he should not be so attached to firearms, or let the craftsman make some matchlock guns, and let him experience it, and he will not do it immediately. , At least for a while.

In many countries in the later generations, some secret killing move weapons will be hidden. These weapons have a great formable power and are generally not publicly displayed. Therefore, when they are suddenly put into combat, they can cause serious damage to the enemy. Blow.

The Great Tang Empire is strong enough that no country can be an opponent of the Great Tang Empire. Therefore, it is not meaningful to deliberately prepare secret weapons. It is better to illuminate these secret weapons to deter the surroundings and show the Great Tang Empire. Military prestige.

In addition, there are too many foreigners in the Great Tang Empire, especially near the capital. Hu people with different skin colors can be seen everywhere. It is not realistic to secretly prepare secret weapons in this environment.

But if Li An secretly hides secret weapons, it is not easy to be discovered. For example, the rifle that Li An has researched and developed has only a few. This average person is really not clear, even Research & People in the Development Center do n’t know. After all, Li An Research & Development disperses the rifle parts to different craftsmen. These craftsmen belong to different sections, and there is basically not much communication between them. Naturally Can’t figure out what the parts that Li An asked them to research, and didn’t dare to ask casually.

Since the rifle has been successfully developed, it only needs to set up industrial production, and it can quickly be mass-produced. It is still no problem to equip a few 10000 elite Armed Forces, but after weighing the pros and cons temporarily because there is not much need, Li An still I do n’t think it ’s too anxious. Anyway, the technology is in my hands. You can use it as you want. Now you ’ve crushed the surrounding power. It ’s too bullying to continue to upgrade the equipment. The one-sided game is not exciting. As for sacrificing the lives of the border guards, this is inevitable, as long as the casualties are not large, it can be accepted. If you can casually annihilate a few hundred enemy without loss, that is too easy. So, how can the noble children It is not easy to go back to the border and plate a layer of gold. In this way, how to select talents, mediocrities can command the soldiers with absolute strength to win the battle, and then it must be good.

“Lao Guo! This thing can theoretically come out from Research & Development, but it also takes time. When you return to Beijing next year, you may be able to get it out. You do n’t have to worry. Also, I know that Lao Guo is distressed. The lives of the soldiers, however, there are always people who sacrifice their lives for the country to join the military. Now, in the past few years, the number of soldier deaths reported by the Ministry of Defense each year is less than 1000, and many of them are sick and accidental. Casualties can’t hurt the foundation of Great Tang. Lao Guo should not be too distressed. “

Li An said.

“Okay, you can do it, you have to try it. Last year, our soldiers lost the most. There were more than 300 people. These horse thieves who come and go without a shadow or trace are really annoying, except for the cavalry. With decentralized deployment, I really can’t find a very good solution. The horses of these horse thieves are better than the horses of our soldiers, and it is very difficult to deal with. “

Guo Ziyi complained.

It can be seen that in the area of ​​Shuofang, the horse thief’s problem is still quite serious, and it can actually cost the elite frontier so much.

“How can there be so many horse thieves in the Shuofang area? Isn’t there already a mutual market? These horse thieves are who. Why do you have a good life, but you have to be a horse thief.”

Li An felt a little strange and asked.

Guo Ziyi called out and replied: “The mutual market is naturally beneficial. The Great Tang 100 surname and northern Turks can be traded fairly, but not everyone can do business, and some businesses are inevitably monopolized. In this way, those who do not have the opportunity to do business will take risks to become horse thieves, and the more places there are merchants, the more oil and water they will rob. Those who do not have the ability to do business specifically rob these merchants, and our Great Tang soldiers have the responsibility of guarding the soil and maintaining law and order. As long as there are horse thieves, they must be deterred by the garrison. “

Obviously, in the northern border zone, through the inter-city, many businessmen have become wealthy, but the businessmen have become rich, but it can not drive the ordinary old 100 surnames to follow the wealthy, because the businessmen control resources and leave all opportunities to make money Owned, so, they can make a lot of money, but people nearby who ca n’t make money through the mutual market are easily jealous. The gap between rich and poor is very terrible in any era. The psychological imbalance of the surname, some bold people will take the risk without hesitation, to do things to rob the businessman.

Moreover, in the border zone where the folk customs are tough, many people are strong and robust men. They will have this strength as long as they have this heart. They are not weak scholars, as long as they are given a horse and a blade, they can Become the most difficult horse thief.

Especially the poor among the nomadic people, they are born with horse riding genes, they must learn to ride horses at a very young age, so riding in adulthood is bound to be extremely superb.

The soldiers under Guo Ziyi had to fight against these difficult opponents. Occasionally they suffered defeats, and it was inevitable to lose some soldiers.

“Old Guo! Are these horse thieves Turkic? Riding skills are superb?”

Li An asked.

Guo Ziyi shook his head and said: “Of course not all of them are Turks. At most, there are our border people in Great Tang. There are also a lot of Tiele and other tribes. If their riding is not superb, where dare to be a horse thief. They still have detailed work among us. As long as our officers and men are mobilized, they will be able to know in advance that they will deliberately avoid places where our army is strictly deployed and choose to rob businessmen in places where our army is weakly deployed. , They will take away their finances. If they encounter officers and soldiers, they will sprinkle gold and silver soft and cargo, leaving all the bulky, and only take the most valuable ones. So that the horse thief escapes, and even some schools and horse thieves have reached a consensus, as long as the horse thieves leave most of the property, they will not pursue, and some will be bought by the horse thief’s careful work, thus everywhere the horse thief is convenient, these scum I have also killed a few, but under the temptation of the horse thief, there will still be a few soldiers who can’t stand the temptation and become a scum. “

After listening to Guo Ziyi saying so much, Li An was lost in contemplation. Lao Guo should say the truth, not to mention in the era of Great Tang, even in other eras, no one can bear the money And the temptation of wealth, if someone is not tempted, it is that the benefits are not enough and good enough.

It may be said that there is a suspicion of knocking down a group of people, but alternatives are always destined to be a minority, and most people can’t stand the temptation. After all, what are the hard work of others, is the dedication? Such a noble quality can only be possessed by talents made with machines.

For such a situation, Li An is also helpless. This situation is so common in any era. Corrupt officials many as dogs are common to all eras. As long as there are enough bones, no dog can withstand such temptation. .

Although in recent years, the Great Tang Imperial Court has carried out several rounds of salary increases for the border soldiers, but even if the salary is raised even higher, where can it go. These salaries are simply one hair compared to the benefits given by the horse thief. From nine oxen, simply can be ignored.

For example, in some dynasties, the salary of County Magistrate rose from 5000 a month to 10000 a month. Salary doubled, which was a big increase, but the County Magistrate with power in his hand can be greedy casually. A few 100000000, a money greedy can last a few hundred years, or even a few thousand years of salaries, how long a County Magistrate can live, in the face of such a big temptation, there are several County Magistrate that can withstand, it is estimated that many will Become a borer of money.

The situation is also the same at the Great Tang border. The military pay available to the soldiers is very limited. Even after several rounds of salary increases, there is not much to go, and the horse thief who robs the businessman can bribe it all at once. Great Tang soldiers for ten years, even 100 years of salaries, so, which Great Tang soldier will not be moved when he meets, and when chasing a horse thief, the horse thief abandons part of the gold and silver soft, the Great Tang soldier who is responsible for chasing, naturally more willing Stopping to pick up the money, and not willing to risk the mortal danger to continue to pursue the horse thief, this is a disaster for himself and the horse thief.

Even if the horse thieves ran away, the Great Tang soldiers who were in charge of chasing would justify and say that the horse thief ran too fast and simply couldn’t catch up. What could be done?

Of course, it is not excluded that some soldiers have the thought of raising their own weight. If all the horse thieves are eliminated, what significance do they have for these officers and soldiers, even if they are not laid off, the treatment is impossible as good as it is now, and If there is no horse thief, it means that no one robs the businessman. So, almost all of the wealth has gone to the businessman ’s pocket, and what can these big-headed soldiers get, the businessman will actively give the money to the big-headed soldier, which is of course impossible.

In any era, only when turmoil and danger occur, can the importance of the army be highlighted and the social status of the soldiers can be improved very well. In a peaceful era without threats from foreign enemies, the status of the soldiers will inevitably decrease, or even deteriorate For the lowest level of society, this has to be said to be sad.

When all the teenagers of an empire are unwilling to join the army, it can be seen how sad the military status of the empire is. Once suddenly encountering foreign enemies, the battle strength of the empire is bound to be difficult to reach, and even hurt. All of them are there. Even if it is a huge Great Empire, if it does not pay attention to armament, it is very likely that it will be beaten by a small country.

Since the founding of the Great Tang, the status of soldiers and generals has not been low, or even very high, especially when the founding of the country, many honorables are military generals, which is enough to reflect the importance of Imperial Court to military and generals. Degree, but with fewer and fewer places to use troops, this situation has undergone some changes, and the military ’s social status has been reduced to a certain extent. Among the honorable personnel, the proportion of civilians has gradually increased. The trend that is above the generals.

Of course, in the era of Great Tang, the boundaries between civil servants and military generals are not too clear. Some civil servants who have brought soldiers to war will also be counted in the ranks of military generals. Military generals who are prime ministers and other civil servants are not at all in the Great Tang Empire. Freshness is a common thing.

Li An should be regarded as a civil servant now, and he is also a civil servant. However, Li An has also led soldiers and fought in battles, so it can also be regarded as a military commander. The boundaries are really too difficult to distinguish.

Looking at Guo Ziyi, who was filled with indignation, Li An said comfortably: “General Guo should not be angry, there are individual scum everywhere, just grab one and kill one. As for the problem of the proliferation of horse thieves, there will always be a solution. , We just think slowly, do n’t worry. “

“Don’t worry, my old Guo is not worried? One day, all these horse thieves will be solved.”

Guo Ziyi said confidently.

Li An nodded with a smile, instructed: “Come here, hurry up and prepare the dishes. General Guo came from afar, he had to eat a meal and go.”
