Three Kingdoms, at the beginning of the game, recognize the thief as the father, hit the spectacle,

That being the case, Zhang Yan didn't plan to intervene in this aspect any more, but handed over everything to the other party with confidence.

After all, Kuai Qi also told him before that after two days, all these matters will be handled properly, then he only needs to trust the other party.

……

Compared with these trivial matters, Zhang Yan has more important things to deal with.

……

This time, Zhang Yan sent people east to attack the Danyang Shanyue forces where Da Zulang was located, which exposed a huge problem, that is, when the army is out on an expedition, whether it is Wancheng or the Lujiang area where Wancheng is located, The ability to defend against foreign enemies will drop to a very exaggerated level.

If it was in normal times, there would naturally be special troops to set up defenses on the periphery, and there would also be special defenders inside the city.But once there is a war and these people are pulled out, the entire Lujiang River will become as if it is defenseless.

This is a problem that Zhang Yan must face up to, and it is also a problem that must be resolved as soon as possible.

In the past, Lu Su naturally handled work in this area on his behalf. Zhang Yan hadn't directly handled anything related to the army for a long, long time.

But now, Lu Su was leading his men to fight in Danyang and Shanyue, so the task of mobilizing and arranging the defenders fell back on Zhang Yan.

=========================

……

Walking in the courtyard of the government office, Zhang Yan subconsciously shook his head.

Today's Lujiang has a total of more than 100 million people, supporting more than 6 soldiers, which is already a very exaggerated proportion.

If the military is further expanded, both the impact on the population structure and the tax pressure on ordinary people will become extremely huge.

Furthermore, a large number of ordinary video screens can only serve to fill the battlefield after all.Now is no longer the period when the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when the number of people was paramount, the policy of elite soldiers is undoubtedly the correct choice——

The previous battles proved this point.

……

But if we don't continue to expand the army... what should we do in the future?

This time he walked very close, and Danyang and Lujiang River were also close to each other, but in a little over two days, he rushed back from Danyang... But if in the future, he sent troops to go far away, and his hometown was stolen, then But it's not something that you can come back when you come back.

In the ancient art of war, the reason why there is a strategy of "encircling Wei and saving Zhao" is because in this era, the backward army's mobility is not enough to ensure that during large-scale operations, one army shuttles back and forth to defend two different areas.

If you want to defend your hometown, your offensive momentum will inevitably be affected.

He arrived in time yesterday, what about the next battle?

Calculating the time, his good brother Cao Cao will start to write an appeal against thieves in the spring of next year, and then he will definitely go all out to participate in the big event of the princes begging for Dong.

When others were in Luoyang, if Lujiang was stolen, how could he make it back in time?

Chapter 62 The host is not inferior to the trash of the military command, is it?

Don't you see, in the original Romance, the only two great warlord Gongsun Zan who could compete with Dong Zhuo was because his hometown was attacked by the Huns, so he had to entrust Liu Bei with his [-]-step cavalry, and he himself took the white horse Yi Cong, I rushed back to my hometown in Youzhou from the Hetao area all the way.

It is precisely because of this that he missed the best development period for the princes to challenge Dong, and failed to get the opponent's reward when Dong Zhuo failed to differentiate.

You know, whether it is Er Yuan, or Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others, they all made their fortunes at that time!

Zhang Yan, who had already made many preparations to challenge Dong, naturally would not allow himself to make the same low-level mistakes as Gongsun Zan.

After contemplating for a long time, he didn't make a decision until the sun was high, and he thought of a way that didn't work out.

……

"Well, it seems that we should look back and see how the later dynasties solved this kind of thing..."

……

Sighing silently, Zhang Yan looked a little helpless.

According to the historical process and laws, in this era, or in the next 1000 years, neither China nor the West has actually solved this problem well.

In China, most of the dynasties would allow the formation of additional troops in addition to the troops controlled by the royal family itself... This is actually a non-solution method, a compromise of the royal family's financial situation.

Take Dahan as an example. From the original Sanhe No. 6 School to the later Xiyuan No. [-] School, this is the army directly under the emperor. If it is placed on the current Zhang Yan, it will be compared with the [-] troops in his hands. Almost in control.

And the locality has local troops.

The county prefects of each county are real military and political leaders. The more than 100 counties and cities of this big man all have their own troops, more or less.

In addition to the sixteen generals with the four titles of Zheng, Zhan, Ping, and An, as well as the miscellaneous generals below, if you really count them, the military strength of these armies may not be worse than the army in the hands of the emperor. .

At the end of the dynasty, the strength of these troops would even overtake the Forbidden Army.

……

In the past, Zhang Yan never wanted the counties and localities under his command to form their own armies, because the shortcomings of the local armies were too serious.

On the one hand, the local army is supported and governed by the local government, and it is not easy for the leaders of the power to intervene directly. In the process of mobilization, problems are prone to occur... On the other hand, the supervision of the local army is also a very troublesome matter.

If you don't give money from the government, then the source of finance for these local armies will fall on the people.People in poor places who can't afford it will starve to death due to heavy taxes, while places where they can afford it will gradually become obedient because of the military's financial independence.

To solve this kind of problem, the emperors of various dynasties naturally supported these local armies with power during the heyday of the dynasty, and the price was the constant cutting and elimination of all kinds of corruption and corruption, which caused a little negative impact It is not smaller than the financial independence of the local army...

After thinking about it, Zhang Yan only felt that under the current situation, there was no good way to solve the problem of defense in non-combat areas during the war.

Not to mention the classical empires of Qin, Han, Tang, and Ming, even in the later modern society, when wars broke out in many countries, the safety of ordinary people would be threatened by military mobilization?

Whether it is an air-raid shelter, or those large-scale underground defense measures, tunnels, etc., they were all built and perfected gradually in order to defend the rear from being attacked by the enemy.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yan's mind gradually became distorted.

……

"Could it be that those large-scale defense institutions should be built at this time?"

"Then it's better to simply build the walls of every city to be indestructible, so that the other party can't even pose a threat to us, which is more reliable!"

……

You know, in the long river of history, there are really some places where this is done.

For example, in Western Europe in the Middle Ages, and in the period when Fusang in the east was relatively poor and backward, they chose to build a huge castle or fortress that could not be breached. Once a war broke out or was attacked by the enemy, all The subjects are all "received" in the fortress.

In this way, it is possible to avoid any huge human losses caused by frequent wars...

What you need to know is that Huaxia is not Western Europe, let alone Fusang.

In Lujiang, any small county has a population of at least tens of thousands, or even 10,000+, and Wancheng has tens of thousands of people in one city. This is not a problem that can be solved by building a castle.

And as it is now, using a semi-enclosed city wall for protection... It is inevitable to reserve a large number of defenders.

This is almost unimaginable for financial pressure.

After seeking fruitlessly in these feudal empires, Zhang Yan had to turn his attention to a later time period.

It was that period of history that made the whole of China great again.

……

"Hi, system, are you there?"

……

After several months, Zhang Yan finally found out the system he carried with him again.

If the calculation is not bad, it has been more than two months since he last contacted his system, almost three months ago.

In the past three months, whether it was Lujiang's solution to the disaster situation, military exercises, or the army's attack on Shanyue... many things took up Zhang Yan's energy, and he didn't pay attention to himself for a long time The construction of the wonders is progressing.

It wasn't until today that Zhang Yan found this "old friend" out of the corner again after he encountered a problem that was difficult to solve and he was unwilling to compromise.

……

"System, system, you said, how did those countries in the later days not allow local support for troops, and at the same time ensure that they are not attacked by the outside world during foreign wars?"

"In my impression, in the two counterattacks against Tianzhu and Annan, almost none of them were hit on the country's land by the other side?"

"It's different from being surrounded by enemy troops at every turn, or stealing houses in ancient times... It seems that after modern warfare, there are very few enemy troops other than the air force breaking through the front line and sneak attacking the rear."

"How the hell is this done?"

……

【…】

In response, I don't know whether the system is too speechless about this question, or it is too speechless about Zhang Yan's pragmatic attitude.

After a long silence, a piece of lukewarm news appeared in front of Zhang Yan.

……

[It is recommended that the host read through books related to intelligence warfare, and stop asking such mentally retarded questions in the future]

[The Statistical Bureau of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government knows to obtain information on the Fusang Kingdom to monitor the relevant movements of the Fusang Army...]

[The host is not even as good as the waste of the military command, is it? 】

……

Chapter 63 Reliable Systems

I don't know why, but today's system is particularly aggressive.

However, this also reminded Zhang Yan that in many cases, "prevention" is more important than "solution".

Instead of concentrating on how to build one's rear into a solid and solid one, it is better to think about how to fight the intelligence war and learn about the military arrangements of these hostile forces in advance.

As long as the movement of the surrounding forces is grasped in advance, the least amount of troops can be used to achieve the greatest effect. In this way, the cost problem caused by recruiting a large number of troops can be said to be easily solved.

What's more, the maintenance and operation cost of the intelligence department is far lower than that of the military department. Under the same budget, it is not too difficult for Zhang Yan to maintain the existence of the intelligence department for a long time.
