Chapter 3808: Strategic issues

Fuward is now very aggrieved. It's not that he can't beat him. The quality of his soldiers is still better than the Qiang people, but the problem is that Fuward doesn't dare to smash his life like before.

I used to fight on the mainland, and just conscript on the spot after fighting. Anyway, some of them in Guishuang are people, and there are many backbones trained in the mountainous areas of Beigui. After a little training, they will be another army, so there is no need to worry about reserve forces. The problem.

This is the same as that the counties of Liangzhou are not worried about their soldiers at all. Whoever sends troops can produce hundreds of thousands of cavalry, but the counties of Liangzhou can make up 300,000 cavalry, and they all use them. It is the version of Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and its combat effectiveness is stable.

If you can change it to expedition, look at the situation of the Han Dynasty fighting Guishuang and you will know that the expedition and the local combat are two different things. Food and logistics, troop allocation, transfer and conscription, etc. need to be calculated and used. Basically, a hundred thousand troops will be dispatched. Hundreds of thousands of civilians would have to transport grain and grass, and tens of thousands of people would maintain the grain channel. In the end, half of them would be able to participate in the war.

This is also the reason why it is difficult to open up the territory and expand the territory. When going out, it is difficult to have more troops than the opponent. In addition, the opponent has the support of the people, local logistics support, terrain advantages, etc., and you want to win. It is extremely difficult.

To put it the simplest one, suppose that a county-level unit has 300,000 people, and theoretically can support 15,000 soldiers. If it goes to attack other places, the force it can use, taking into account the logistics, has already guarded the grain road, etc. On the one hand, the final force that can be deployed is about 10,000.

It can be defended according to the ratio of male to female, mobilizing the local people to stick to the city. You can use more than 100,000 young people. If you count the young people in battle, the force that can be used can even reach an exaggerated 200,000. This is the meaning of local combat.

However, the Han dynasty basically never enjoyed this kind of treatment, and they often went out for nearly 10,000 li and slashed with others. In this case, the advantages of local personnel could not be used at all.

Incidentally, this is why, once the Han Dynasty wins, the gains are basically tens of thousands, and hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep are captured, because the Han Dynasty wins is equivalent to blasting the opponent's city and can scrape the ground three feet.

Similarly, if the Han family loses a large army, usually ten to twenty thousand, but not 50,000 to death, the reason is that you have gone thousands of miles outside to fight, how can you bring more than 100,000 people.

Conversely, this can also explain why after the early Tang Dynasty to the peak period of the Tang Dynasty, the general gains were tens of thousands, and the number of captured cattle and sheep was extremely exaggerated. After the loss, the loss did not exceed 50,000, even when In the battle of Lianheng Ross, the world history and Tang history gave the largest casualties statistics, counting the friendly forces who stabbed the Tang army back to only 15,000.

To put it bluntly, it is because it is too far away, so far as the deployment of troops has become a big problem, the maximum deployment capacity of the main force is only 10,000 people, and no more than 50,000 people at most.

After the Tang Dynasty passed the Xuanzong peak period, he would lose hundreds of thousands at every turn. By the Song Dynasty, he would lose hundreds of thousands at every turn. The gains from fighting opponents usually did not exceed a few thousand. In fact, it has already shown that offensive and defensive transpositions.

It is impossible to win over one hundred thousand by head-on battle. According to different opponents, it can be divided into killing the opponent's city, directly killing the opponent in one pot, and killing the opponent's royal court, in two ways, but these two types They are all negative textbooks that are lonely and deeply out of touch with their own in the art of war, but the big guys generally don't read such textbooks.

Fuward really wants to talk about combat effectiveness, even if it is limited by the fact that his soldiers have just switched their elite talents, and they have not fully adapted to the plateau climate, the terrain is not familiar, etc., they really want to fight, only six to seven thousand Qiang people are young and strong. Germany can still be played.

Can you solve the problem after playing it? Just like when Rahul didn't have the chain behind him, hundreds of thousands of people would fight Guan Yu directly. Without mentioning whether Guan Yu could win or not, even if he won, it is absolutely impossible for the Han Dynasty to stand firmly in the middle and lower reaches of the Ganges.

The loss of the 500,000 army is nothing to Guishuang, even less than 2%. Relying on the size of the empire, it took less than two years to make blood to recover, but if the Han Dynasty was severely damaged, just The next wave of troops will take two years.

It is equivalent to saying that Guishuangbai had a two-year buffer time. It is really such a fight, and the Han Dynasty is probably still fighting the second Brahish encirclement and suppression.

It can be said that this is the biggest difference between local warfare and foreign warfare. Fuward is now in a situation where he can't afford to win. He can only win big, not small wins, let alone draw and lose.

If it is said that on the Beigui side, Fuward lost 20,000 people and annihilated the 60,000 Qiang people, then it is definitely a big victory and needs to be rewarded. It can be replaced by the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, where Fuward lost 20,000 people and died. There are 60,000 Qiang people, and the Qiang tribes are very sophisticated, but Fuward's strategy has also been abandoned!

This is why in the Battle of Constant Ross, the Tang dynasty cut the Arabs by 70,000, and its own loss of 15,000. The Tang dynasty recorded its own loss, and the big food recorded its own victory.

Because this is not a question of gains, but at a strategic level, after the Tang Dynasty lost 15,000 people, the remaining 10,000 people are no longer enough to continue to maintain the capital of Anxi under the front of the army of 230,000. The territory of the Guardian government extending to the Black Sea does not have the capital to continue to maintain the name of the Sassanian Persian country under the force of the eclipse.

Although this war did not have any impact on the core territories of Arabia and the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty still retained the territory of the Central Asian blockbuster, but this has already shaken the overall hegemony of the Tang Dynasty in Eurasia, and proves that the Tang Dynasty has merged. Not an invincible existence.

After all, the territory of the Tang Dynasty has actually surpassed the extreme wall of empire rule, and it can sustain more because the Tang Dynasty was too strong, so powerful that no one dared to challenge it, and the foreign warfare was too amazing. It flourished in Arabia and played Europe. The humble one, with the Koran in one hand, the cross in the other, world-class generals one after another.

This is the same as that of the Tang Dynasty’s Anxi Daduhufu in six battles and six defeats, and the Anxi Daduhufu’s strength in the early days of Xuanzong accounted for only about one-twentieth of the overall military strength of the Tang Dynasty. During the Kaiyuan period, Xuanzong had a total of 49.8W.

Among them, 20,000 of them fought Eastward Arabia and lost six times. This is why the Tang Dynasty was able to go to the Black Sea to discuss the boundary line with Byzantium, because no one really dared to provoke this monster. The Prosperous Empire has no temper, and this kind of legion has 25 opponents. Is this one level? of course not.

Therefore, the Tang Dynasty had only 24,000 people in Central Asia, but it firmly grasped the important reason for the entire Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate. My 24,000 people and the Arabs won the hammer, and it was six battles and six. Victory, you scumbags can't even provoke Arabs, and dare to provoke giant daddy!

In this case, Central Asia would naturally dare not follow the orders of the Tang Dynasty. However, the defeat of the Tang Dynasty in the Battle of Heng Ross was actually equivalent to shaking the undefeated golden body, which in turn led to the beginning of the border areas. idea.

This is the same as the U.S. World Beacon in 2019. No one thought that the other party could be so bad. In 2021, the U.S. will be like this. I really want to say that the real power gap between 2019 and 2021 may not be much. But the former speaks loudly, and it is known to be quite powerful. In 2021, it will inevitably be a little unable to blow.

As for Song, there is nothing to talk about. The undefeated golden body is in the hands of others, and the city is often broken by thousands of people and then defeated by tens of thousands and captured hundreds of thousands.

The most amazing thing about the Han Dynasty is that if you really want to say how fierce it is, it is actually not very fierce, at least in terms of hard targets. But the most fierce part of the Han Dynasty is that, except during the civil war, it was basically done by others. The family hammered others, and finally won.

It is not important to be embarrassed or not. The important thing is that it looks particularly cruel and lacks hard qualities, but the aura is particularly strong. At first glance, it is a top giant, even if it is down, it cannot be underestimated. The Tang Dynasty is obviously a little weak in this aspect. , A bit too embarrassing.

It's the same as the Chinese army and the same beautiful weapon. The combat effectiveness is completely different. The hard indicators are just hard indicators. Sometimes when you hammer others, you actually look at the hard indicators.

This also makes Fuward look particularly embarrassed now. A mere 40,000 Qiang people are chasing after more than 30,000 Fuward's elites to fight. What is called stubbornness, this is called stubbornness.

In the meantime, Fuward didn't think about turning around and the Qiang people stumbling, but when he thought that he had no spare power to execute the strategy, Fuward resisted this idea forcibly and put the overall situation first.

On the contrary, it was the Qiang people who killed that called a rise. Obviously, their losses were twice as much as Fuward, but their momentum was far better than Fuward, and since they took back more than 400,000 yuan. After the geese, the Qiang looked at the big geese who had lost weight, but the return of the big geese, the fighting power has improved again, and he was shot! Pieces into pieces!

"It's really fast." Lin Dai spit, stabbed one of Guishuang's prisoners to death. He couldn't understand what the other party was saying, and the local product trade was not done well, so he killed the matter.

"Are you still chasing? Boss." The leader of Di Ren hurriedly handed over a glutinous wine, and said to his neighbor Dai. The performance of the nearest neighbor Dai has won the unanimous approval of Qingqiang, Faqiang and Diren. There is a general style that can lead them to the next level, so Neighbor Dai has become the leader of the election, waiting for the Han Dynasty to become the county guard.

That’s right, after Yang Pu’s wicked research, they can actually avoid the leadership of the treacherous minister named Sima Lang. They can form a new county, called Qiangtang County, and then hang under the leadership of Chuanshu. Chen Deng, the governor of Sichuan and Sichuan, was a good official.

This idea is very good, and it can be separated from Sima Lang's rule. Therefore, a group of Qiang people who think that their family has suffered a lot of losses quickly began to recommend them. The neighbors who are not allowed to become reserve county guards, of course, will not be able to be the county guards. The internal affairs of the Qiang people...
