Chapter 730 is all improving
The cold wind blows punctually at the beginning of November, and even if the wartime map is ever-changing, it will be affected by the snow and ice from this month onwards.
On November 1st, the second wave of volunteers in Shu also came to Yangping Pass, this time it was also 200,000, led by Deng Yu, and according to their words, a batch will come every week this month, and there will be next month, and finally about 1.6 million people will be invested - hearing this news, the generals of the two families of Jiang Mo in the northwest were completely shocked.
"This is Master Xinlan's instructions, let's not rush to support the central part of the country, and solve the problem of the western border first. Jiang Ai explained.
I have to say that the plan to build a road into Kunlun has worked, under the persuasion of Yuanba, there have been many demon tribes who have expressed their willingness to follow the Great Song Dynasty, because the plateau is not suitable for ordinary people to live, Xinlan agreed to divide the plateau people and the demon tribe in this place The autonomous management area, and suddenly some Kunlun aborigines also took refuge in them.
It is worth mentioning that these aborigines are actually the plateau people enslaved by the demon clan, and the rise of Tubo can be regarded as liberating them, but Tubo not only cannot change their material life, but also cannot change their spiritual outlook, and the two are complementary to each other, and the result is that these plateau people are extremely numb to the feeling of changing hands.
"Not everyone has a hymn that goes straight to the heart, but we do, so we can do anything. ”
This is the idea in the hearts of Jiang Ai and others, and it is also the actual situation, Tubo's previous harassment strategy is correct, but the Great Song Dynasty has Xinlan, and the technology brought by Xinlan improves the material life of plateau people, so that Tubo can now be said to be the general trend, that is, leaving Xinlan and Xiahou Zun can stabilize the situation, so there are Jiang Ai, Zhao Chong and Deng Yu and other important generals who have successively left Shu to operate.
As for the east, Xinlan made it clear that the volunteers who were too rough would not be able to play a role there, so she let the remaining 1 million troops continue to train.
As for the 400,000 soldiers planned to support Nanyun Province, Ma Yuan was also preparing to set off in the next few days.
However, the northwest generals were surprised not by these, these arrangements were somewhat unexpected, but the instructor was Xinlan, there was no problem, they were surprised that they thought there were not many volunteers, but there were three million...... There was gossip, but they all took it as a joke, until 400,000 came to the Northwest Territories so really.
These 400,000 people directly doubled the strength of the Northwest Army, even if the quantity and quality are not equal, but the Northwest Army does not have so many wounded soldiers - besides, the reason why they stopped when they counterattacked to Tianshui Chencang was that the fundamental reason was that the troops were not enough, and now when they think that there will be at least one million to join in the future, why not drive away the Huns?
Then again, the reason why the Huns retreated so quickly was related to the fact that they forced their way deep into the enemy area without capturing the big cities in the northwest and spent too many troops on maintaining stability, of course, these are already in the past...... Some people think so.
"No, I don't think the Huns gave up. Huo Changsheng said.
In fact, the ominous aura in the air weakened for a while, but on this day it suddenly became confusing...... There is a good saying, compared to being able to feel the strength of the opponent, the opponent is so strong that you can't figure it out at all, that's really scary.
However, this terrible report was soon passed on with the new report.
"It's a big deal!"
Everyone was shocked, but when they learned that the Xiongnu had begun to kill on a large scale again, they smiled.
"Perversely, the Huns are not far from defeat. ”
"The dog jumped off the wall in a hurry. ”
"The occupied areas are in danger. ”
Hearing this last sentence, everyone looked at Huo Changsheng in unison, but the latter did not hide behind the generals of Shu as usual, and it could be seen that he had changed.
Huo Changsheng has indeed changed, and he is not opening his mouth with the mentality of saying his feelings about side effects, so Jiang Ai and others will believe it, and Mo Si and others will understand, but it is not enough to convince more people.
"It's a matter of mentality......"
If you think that the Xiongnu just became cruel again, then it is really a big mistake, the Great Song Dynasty did not know the mood changes brought by the Xiongnu Shan Yu, so they could analyze this "perverse" from other angles.
At first, the Xiongnu attacked, and the "cruelty" that they heard and saw in fact aroused the will of the people of the Great Song Dynasty to "resist to the end", and this will intensified when the Xiongnu wanted to rule them by means of appeasement, and all kinds of underground organizations and rebellions were brewing and constantly breaking out, giving people the illusion that the people and the country would live and die together.
Well, yes, delusion.
The people, ordinary people have too many things to care about, food, clothing, housing, transportation, and livelihood problems are about to squeeze out their little time, at first they can still squeeze out a little energy and time to "the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband", but soon, to be precise, the disadvantage of the war, long-term entanglement can easily wear out their enthusiasm.
The life goes on, unless even life is endangered.
Maybe you will say, isn't it time for the Huns to go on a killing spree again?
"Huns...... It's not civilians who kill, are they?"
Most of those who really have the leeway to find new masters, or talk about their ideas, or go out of their way to patriotism, are mostly intellectuals and middle-class people, who have a little money and can devote more energy to their livelihoods, and will fight to ensure their "status" slightly stronger than that of the lower classes, while racking their brains for promotion to the upper class, which is always the least number of people.
It is this part of the people that the Huns killed, they don't need the middle level that has been influenced by the Great Song Dynasty civilization, or in other words, they don't need those people who want to replace the upper class of the Huns and vainly try to change their masters to continue to speculate and work.
So what will happen to the remaining lower layers?
"Probably...... They will miss the days when the Xiongnu implemented the appeasement policy, right?" Jiang Ai said, his expression a little helpless.
Even if he loves the people of Shu the most, he has to admit that ordinary people have always had a not very good character because of poverty.
That is, let's say you're much stronger than him, and you suddenly go over and punch him, and he's going to get angry.
If there is no follow-up, even if you are still happy with him and scold him, he will suspect that you are trying to do wrong.
But if you keep hitting him and suddenly stop fighting, he will be grateful and weeping.
In the same way, if you start beating again after you have not succeeded, he will sweep away his previous doubts and regret why he didn't obey in the first place.
Now this is the situation, and the situation is similar to the situation of being good and being bullied, it is foreseeable that the reign of terror of the Huns will achieve a completely different effect than before, and even the number of troops used to maintain stability will decrease.
Yes, that's how the people are, carrots and sticks are not easy to use alone, but they work together incomparably......
The meeting ended quickly, and the relevant countermeasures were not discussed, not because there was nothing to be done, but because the enemy was not repelled and the territory was recaptured, there was no way to deal with it.
But keen people have already perceived that the change of policy under the rule of the Xiongnu is only an outpost, and the real killing is still to come, after more than a month of loss, both the Great Song and the Xiongnu regard each other as equal opponents who will continue to improve.
"So, I want you to continue to take over that force. Mo Si said to Huo Changsheng.
Since the 400,000 soldiers brought by Shu could only operate with new tactics, the original Shu generals returned their respective soldiers and changed to command the volunteer army.
Mo Si didn't let Huo Changsheng continue to lead the remnants of the army, which were already less than 20,000, but just like the enemy was constantly seeking change, Mo Si hoped that the Mo family could also continue to improve, so he decided to replenish his troops and let Huo Changsheng take that army to see the world.
"Moreover, the way you fight, it would be more convenient to have an all-round army, right?"
Compared with the specialized troops in Shudi, all the troops in the world can call themselves "all-powerful", but Mo Si's words are not wrong, Huo Changsheng really needs such troops, this is due to his style.
No matter how the world changes, it will not change the style.
Speaking of this, I have to mention the Ban Dynasty who has awakened the power of the Star Dream, which is different from the forcible explanation of the Xiongnu Cosmic Knight, even if it returns to this world that does not belong to the management of the Xiongnu system, the Star Dream can still be stimulated.
Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs.
Obviously, they are in this world, sorry for this sentence.
"Why do I think we're the villains?" Jiang Ai laughed.
