Chapter 405: The General Is Right
Who in the world doesn't know that His Majesty cares more about the people?
What is the purpose of army reform?
The emperor's original intention was to increase the combat effectiveness of the army through the professionalization of the army, and at the same time reduce the excessive burden on the people caused by the conquest.
This burden refers to the conscription that needs to be levied as a result of the war.
Qin Shi Huang of that year did not say that because of the war, there was less conscription.
He just opened one or two fewer projects, and the people would not accumulate so much resentment, and they would not directly kill Daqin after his son took the throne.
The current emperor is still young, and the youngest of their generals is nearly twenty years older than the emperor.
Although the general will not accept the orders of the foreign monarch, Wang Li still does not dare to move on some issues of principle.
The knowledge edification of the Wang family is a joke?
Wang Li had to substitute his grandfather and father at this moment.
If it were them, what would they do now?
'Oops, I forgot to ask Your Majesty for benefits...... Wang Li suddenly thought of a fatal mistake of his own.
Before, I only thought about more soldiers, and forgot the essence of the Wang family's dog technique.
How can a general be reassured by having so many soldiers outside?
The ancestral secret recipe of the Wang family is to ask for more benefits, and then leave all your family members with the emperor, and only take the people you must bring to go out to fight.
What is a must-bring person?
It was Wang Jian who took Wang Ben, and Wang Ben was not to keep the foundation of the Wang family, but because Wang Ben was really capable of fighting.
Including the later Wang Ben and Wang Li, they are all the same.
When Wang Jian went to destroy the Chu State, Wang Li was a hostage at home, and he respected his grandfather's orders, and made some disturbances in Xianyang from time to time.
Big mistakes can't be talked about, they are all trivial things, as a former witness, Wang Li felt that he had unbelievably forgotten the core content of the Wang family's dog technique.
"Since the Huns have retreated, our task has been completed, and it is too risky for the infantry to pursue the cavalry, but the situation in the city is getting worse and worse, and we can't continue like this!" Wang Li decided to use the Wang family's dog technique.
Because of the current situation, he had to do it.
Because Wang Li can't grasp it well, Wang Bu is hungry and will kill heroes in the future.
Judging by historical experience, there is a high probability that it will.
Although many times it is the result of the death of those heroes themselves, it turns out that many people were deliberately ordered by the emperor.
Of course, there is another important factor.
That is, these heroes are younger than the emperor, or, when the emperor is older.
Why did the emperor kill the heroes?
said 1,000 to 10,000, or to pave the way for his son.
Once the old emperor is gone, and the new emperor ascends the throne, can he suppress these people?
All of them are the elders of the new emperor's uncles, and they have great military exploits.
The same mistakes, the old emperor dares to fix them, does your new emperor dare?
Therefore, in his later years, the emperor will generally liquidate a group of old ministers, and then leave a few of his most trusted people to assist the new emperor, these people are the Dinghai Shenshen Needle of the imperial court, the kind of people who can help the new emperor through the dangerous period.
It stands to reason that Wang Li doesn't need to worry about this, because according to his age, he feels that he must go ahead of Wang Buying.
But the identity of the Wang family is too special, and with his status as a general, if the credit is too great, it will inevitably cause more trouble.
So, Wang Li continued: "All the people who entered the city from outside the city have left Yuyang, and there is no need to migrate long distances, and I will be worried that the Huns will kill them at any time, so we will be passive." ”
"Just let them stay at the edge of Yuyang City, these days food and clothing are provided by the government, and it is not a way to continue like this."
"Let's let them help build the defenses, anyway, if they are idle, they can't just eat and not work, right?"
"Well, the scouts were sent out more, the distance of reconnaissance was farther, and if they found that the Huns had any abnormal movements, the people immediately entered the city, and at that time, Yuyang's defense was even more perfect!"
Yingbu: ......
Zhou Bo: ......
Lu Juan: ......
Fan Xu: "Dog, Zhente Niang's dog, Lao Tzu has never seen anyone who is more dog than you Wang Li, it's just a turtle with a shrunken head, it's too shameless......
Wang Li, who was despised by everyone, didn't care at all.
There is nothing to care about either.
His task was to prevent the Xiongnu from going south, so chasing them out was the same as guarding Yuyang.
Besides, he was an infantryman and a new soldier, and he rashly attacked to fight a field battle with the Hun cavalry, and the loss could only be himself.
If you don't go out in Yuyang, at most it will be useless, but you will never have it.
Even if he loses the fighter, it doesn't matter to him.
Because the emperor didn't plan to let him attack at all, and there were no fighters.
And Guan Ying and Han Xin are still in the depths of the desert, with their equipment and troops, they will definitely be able to teach the Huns a profound lesson.
In front of these two Han generals who are well-rooted, isn't his little credit no different from nothing?
Whoever wants to be this bird, anyway, it's not appropriate for me to leave the king......
"General, isn't this too conservative?" Zhou Bo asked with a frown.
Wang Li's method is safe, but the problem is that these soldiers basically can't get any war achievements.
Zhou Bo is better, at least 2,000 heads have been earned.
Although he did not personally command, he did lead it, and this credit cannot be escaped.
Yingbu and Lu Juan had just assembled their troops in the back and were about to go over to steal chickens, but they were recalled by Wang Li.
The worst thing is Fan Xu, everyone is ready at the west gate, just wait for Wang Li's order to go out of the city and kill the Quartet, but until the Huns retreated, he couldn't take a step out of the city gate.
"Yes, General, although the Hun cavalry has high mobility, we are not completely without a countermeasure!" Lu Juan also nodded after him.
They were the generals who had surrendered and been entrusted with important tasks.
What is most needed now is to use military exploits to prove one's ability and prove that one is qualified to be a general.
Otherwise, after the end of this war, how would they still raise their heads in the army?
So, Lu Juan continued: "General, now we have enough vehicles, we can go out to fight with the Huns in the field, and when the time comes, we can directly put out a chariot formation to resist the impact of the cavalry, if there is enough time, we can even arrange to reject the horses, and let them attack the ......."
"What if the Huns besiege you and don't attack you? How much food do you have to consume in the wild? Wang Li looked at the generals.
The hardest part of being a general is that when you think about dogs, you have to care about the emotions of your subordinates.
Otherwise, if you fight in the future, there will be no soldiers willing to fight with you.
Although this problem did not exist in the Han Dynasty, because all the soldiers under the generals were temporarily assigned before the expedition.
Everyone is trained from a set of patterns, and they are all a template.
No one knows where the upper limit of the troops assigned to you is, but the lower limit can be controlled.
I have to admit that this military reform of the Han Dynasty has made the generals a lot more comfortable.
The lower limit was determined, familiarized with it on the way out, gradually improved cognition, and then determined a suitable position for the troops under him.
Therefore, Wang Li needs to be dog, but he can't lose it, after all, the name of the old Wang family is too loud.
Cultural people naturally have to do something that cultural people should do.
So, Wang Li continued: "The Great Han is now in the stage of strategic defense and strengthening itself, and it is comfortable to go out and fight randomly, but what is the result? What if it fails? Have you ever wondered why the Han is so short of troops now? ”
"Isn't it because His Majesty is unwilling to increase the number of recruits, which will affect the normal life of the people?"
"That's why there is a five-year military service system, which is divided into five years to completely complete the planned troops, and in the sixth year, a complete cycle can be carried out."
"In other words, it will not be until the sixth year, that is, three years later, that Dahan's strategy will gradually change."
"Now we have more than 100,000 people here, but these more than 100,000 people are all recruits this year, and they haven't even conducted a joint training once, so they go to fight the Huns at this level, where do you get the courage?"
"If something goes wrong, have you ever thought about the outcome?"
"In the whole north, there is no defensive force to speak of, and the Huns can plunder as if no one was in a no-man's land."
"They can even stay here and trap our people in the city, ten days and half a month are okay, but after a long time, and there are no reinforcements, do you think the people in the city can still stick to their original intentions?"
"Let's talk about the second one, if these more than 100,000 recruits are reimbursed, the strategy that can be changed in three years must wait until four or five years later, and in two years, what will the Huns develop to?"
"Do you think that General Ben doesn't want to lead his troops out and fight the Huns fiercely?"
"Of course General Ben wants to, and he dreams about it, but no matter what General Ben thinks, it's just General Ben's own thoughts."
"As a Han minister, as a general who is responsible for the safety of the northern border of the Han Dynasty, when we make decisions, we can only choose the most secure way, and everything must be in the interests of the Han Dynasty first."
"The current Han doesn't need you to get much military exploits, as long as the north can be stable, as long as the Huns can not go south, the rest, naturally, the smaller the loss, the better."
"Bear with it for a while now, and in the future we will have more confidence in fighting the Huns......
The king left Balabala one after another.
Looking at the expressions on everyone's faces, Wang Li finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It's not easy to fool Zhente Niang, and I'm about to believe it myself.
Zhou Bo looked at Wang Li with a little doubt in his eyes, a dog is a dog, where did so many crooked ways come from?
It's so grandiose, do you really think I haven't read a book?
Or do you think we don't know that Han Xin is on the grassland?
Zhou Bo snorted coldly in his heart, and said: "What the general said is that if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan......"
