724 amateur spy
Jingshi, Luoyang. Firefox is compiling intelligence, yes, compiling intelligence, Firefox is unlikely to have access to the first information. For example, the movement of front-line troops, the transfer of grain and grass, and so on, these information have a lot to do with the republican army's movement of relevant aspects, and in such a situation, what they need is to make some constant adjustments, which come from her own knowledge of history.
Unfortunately, the influence of the butterfly effect is still relatively large. Especially the Republican Army, which has sprung up, they are simply demonic beings.
A lot of history has been broken back into its original trajectory. But history, after all, has its own inertia. This inertia remains. For example, history still inevitably saw power struggles between eunuchs and relatives.
That's the information Firefox is compiling.
The advantage of the great general He Jin is very great. Although the emperor constantly suppressed the other party, for example, in the army, Jian Shuo was equivalent to the commander-in-chief of the three armies. But in fact, the person who held the actual control of the army turned out to be the great general He Jin. For example, in the Xiyuan New Army, the general He Jin controlled six of the eight captains. There is also a neutral one, and Jian Shuo is basically isolated. Jian Shuo's order. If there is an order of the emperor. It was okay, but there was no order from the general. It is still not possible to mobilize.
This is in the center. In the local area, many local generals have taken refuge in the general's command, hoping to be protected by the general. For example, Ding Yuan in Bingzhou belongs to the descendants of He Jin's lineage in the Great March. And Dong Zhuo, who is still the head of the local warlords, is also very speculative and takes refuge under the door of He Jin. Cao Cao, not to mention Yuan Shao.
Therefore, the He Jin Group is a large political group that has the most control over the central group.
However, Firefox knows the historical role of He Jin, this person, is too confident. But sometimes, it's too hesitant. In short, this person's shortcomings will be infinitely magnified in historical events, and eventually lead to his own tragic end.
At the same time, this person is too prejudiced and still does not have a good opinion of eunuchs, which directly leads to future events.
As a direct result of these factors, the internal part of the He Jin Group is not unified and united.
Yuan Shao, for example, represents the ideas of those bureaucrats. They just see this kind of defection as a speculative, bureaucratic speculative trick. Cao Cao was still an idealist at this time. They hoped to achieve their political ideals through the great general He Jin.
And He Jin's younger brother, He Miao. The idea turned out to be different from that of his brother, which led to the conflict between the two becoming public. This does not bode well.
And there are different opinions among local generals, for example, Dong Zhuo belongs to ambitious people, although He Jin and others can't see it, but Firefox can be clear that this is usually not visible. And he is obedient and obedient, it seems to be a very good follower, but in fact, it is the biggest disaster, because Dong Zhuo is ambitious, and there is no lower limit to his approach, otherwise he would not have molested the emperor's concubine. You know, Dong Zhuo can do anything.
Filthy harem, this is the most tasteless thing, Dong Zhuo can actually do it. Hey, there's no way, but they come from a small number of nomadic tribes in the northwest. Such a thing, probably, is normal for him. Maniacs are never normal. Therefore, when the firefox was summing up, he put the biggest threat on Dong Zhuo.
In the intelligence, Firefox added some of its own opinions, which are all recognized by history. At the same time, she also paid special attention to the emperor's physical condition, the emperor's health has deteriorated very much, and there may be greater changes next year. He wanted things to get noticed.
In this way, Firefox guessed and deduced that she hoped that her information would attract the attention of the other party. Otherwise, he himself would not know what would have happened. This was the first time Firefox had teamed up with the IRA as an amateur spy.
The Republican Army is desperate to know more information about Luoyang in the south, but their intelligence network has been deployed on the periphery, and although Zhang Rang has a certain role, his role is decreasing, and the information transmitted is becoming more and more difficult to explain. Therefore, the IRA can only expand its intelligence from other angles.
Republican Army, War Department.
"The rail thing, I think so, bad weather tells us that we can't meet our needs by road transport alone. At the same time, this is only some bad weather on the front line, and if this is the case in the rear, we will not be able to transport more supplies. Jia Xu said worriedly. He himself was very much in favor of the bankers' proposals for the construction of railways, although railway transport was not very mature, and even had some characteristics that did not shed its experimental nature. But this does not hinder the advantages of the train.
"I understand some of these situations. However, the crux of the matter is not here, and there will be no roads and railways in the future where the war zone will take place. "Shangwu habitually looks at the problem with the view of the world in later generations, and has a great understanding of the kind of large-depth combat that can easily advance hundreds of kilometers, but in ancient times, it was impossible to achieve such a situation, and if you want to advance in greater depth, you can only rely on cavalry troops, but the development of cavalry is relatively slow, and they need more horses, and this kit limits their development. That's the hardest thing for them.
"We understand this, but if we control the scale of our operations, and advance a distance of eighty to one hundred miles at a time, it will be the best for us. Because it is very beneficial for us to adopt the method of parallel advancement and encroach on the other side little by little, we do not have to invest too much in our troops, and we do not have to worry about greater risks, and our supply lines can be replenished at any time. That's where we come in. Jia Xu said excitedly.
Technology provides a good technical advantage for the advance of the Republican Army, even if the carriage is used, it still needs to take into account the problem of attrition on the battlefield, and at the same time, the concentration of a large number of resources will also bring some other effects. But in contrast, train transportation solves such a problem technically, and it produces almost no losses. The most important thing is speed, they can provide unlimited transportation methods to solve problems, and in Jia Xu's view, the advantages brought by technology are huge. And the Republican Army can advance little by little with unlimited logistical supplies, and they use their advantage in firepower to strike their enemies, so that the enemy simply cannot cope with their opponents, and this is where their advantage lies, and the Republican Army only needs to expand such an advantage.
"In my opinion, another advantage of the railway is that it is built very quickly, as long as enough manpower is recruited, there are a large number of war victims in the area to deal with the operation in the future, for example, and the chaotic situation gives us such a condition, if we do it to such a point, the railway is completed, we provide materials, quickly arrange the railway, and the supply will continue to follow our team, and the other party will not be able to pose a great threat to us at all. Because from the railway, we can quickly send reinforcements from the rear, and we can't do much damage to our logistical supply lines. Jia Xu said.
Jia Xu was very excited, because the technical characteristics of the Republican Army allowed him to find a logistical problem that was difficult to face in any previous war, but this problem was successfully solved here by the Republican Army.
"Well, I understand. We're doing that, for example, we're cooperating with Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo is also building their roads, and although the efficiency is very poor, they're doing it after all, and if we can work with each other to solve such a problem, it's going to be very beneficial to us, right? Shang Wu said.
"Yes, that's the case. This will be very beneficial for us. Jia Xu nodded and said.
"Now let's talk about funding, the key to building a railway is funding. Banks need to use a lot of money, and if they don't have enough profits, and profit prospects, I don't think those investors will invest a lot of money in this, believe me, a lot of investors will definitely think so, and what we need to do is buy their bonds, stocks, and use liquidity to help them. In this way, we need to issue more banknotes, which will inevitably affect the problem of prices. So, we also need to think about how to balance prices. Shang Wu said.
"I understand. I understand. Jia Xu said.
The secret of banknotes is no longer a secret. When paper money was used, Shang Wu had clearly told Jia Xu the advantages and disadvantages of such a secret weapon, and the reason why the Republican Army developed so quickly was because they were able to use paper money, because paper money got rid of the natural properties of metal money. It's a step forward. The progress that comes with this kind of progress is significant.
"The only way to sell prices is to import a lot, or we can influence other local economies to become our dependencies, so that other regions can rely on a single material export and become our economic vassals." Jia Xu said. Jia Xu is very much in favor of the use of economic weapons, and the economy is also a kind of weapon, and Guan Zhong in the Spring and Autumn Period used such weapons. Therefore, Jia Xu will never oppose such a thing.
"If that's the case, I'm very much in favor of that."
