Chapter 437: Remembering Two or Three Things in Two or Three Years—16
However, what Suning did not expect was that Dalian testified on the battlefield on the Western Front, opening up a greater survival for Chinese civilization, but neglected the management of the core area, so that some people began to disobey his orders. Just when Suning decided to limit the number of people leaving the country, they secretly gathered a group of Praetorian Guards, after all, Suning himself is not in the core area of Liangzhou, and these Praetorian Guards usually have no tactical tasks, so in addition to training, they are to act as a verifier of new weapons for those technology groups, for which they even bought several insurances, and they are worried that they will die in the process of verifying new weapons, after all, Suning has not built a similar welfare system within the system, So they had to rely on their own relatively high income, in addition, with some kickbacks given to them by those technology groups, to buy these security guarantees privately.
If when the new order was conveyed to them, they found that the original boring life could finally end here, so they were all excited and inexplicably counted the equipment, and used all the skills and tactics accumulated in the training, even if it was a simple inventory of guns and ammunition, they had to use several methods, as if only in this way could they awaken the combat consciousness in their hearts.
In fact, this is just a kind of show-off, a kind of show-off that does not take the enemy to heart, they know that the weapons in their hands have far exceeded the enemy's imagination, and as long as they appear on the battlefield, they can bring great trauma to the enemy. Therefore, there is no need to take this battle too seriously, it only needs to be regarded as a drill, and since it is a drill, of course, it is necessary to systematically integrate what you have learned and practiced in ordinary times.
So when they were stuffed into the carriage, there were still many soldiers chirping crookedly reviewing the essentials of tactical movements, they were not nervous before the battlefield, but just learning from each other, and looking forward to the coming war with a relaxed atmosphere.
But their journey is destined to be full of various controversies. Due to Song Jiang's emphasis on the supervision system and the early deployment of the intelligence system, he quickly learned from other sources about his subordinates' disobedience, and also knew that the most elite army he had trained was on its way to Hanzhong at this time.
He knew that the army was only 2,000 people, but it was very likely that they would face an army that was more than ten times more than their own, although in the military history of the Liangzhou system, there had also been a feat of 600 people resisting 20,000 or 30,000 people, but after all, it was a fluke made by Suning many years ago.
Yes, now he has regarded the feat of the year as a fluke. For no other reason, there are not many people today who can replicate the miracle of those years. The ancestors ten years ago despised the regular army of the Han Dynasty very much, so they gave Suning such a big opportunity without checking, but today's Liangzhou system has long been famous, in the face of such a strong army, which opponent will take it lightly?
Therefore, he could not help but publicize the achievements of that year as a fluke victory, and the purpose was very simple, that is, to clearly warn young people not to take it lightly because of their military strength.
But it is obvious that his painstaking efforts are not understood by too many people.
Otherwise, there would not have been such a thing as this 2,000 men going south to win hundreds of thousands of enemy troops when the army was ordered to go south.
It's a pity that even if Suning has mastered relatively mature radio technology in his hands, there is no way to notify the army that has entered the war zone at the first time, their actions are so fast, just like the training they usually receive, to achieve the basic requirements of rapid response, and now Suning, there is even reason to believe that this army can reach any frontier of the empire within five days, and pour its own bullets in front of the enemy, but this time, Suning was not prepared to use them to participate in the war in Hanzhong County.
The reason is actually very simple, he is not ready to let hot weapons change the historical course of the land of China, if this army carries its own broken pistol and shows off its might on the battlefield, no matter what the outcome of the war is, they will change the course of history.
In that case, Suning would have to face a more complicated Central Plains war situation ten years later, and at that time, even if he had opened up a wider territory for the Chinese Empire, he would have to concentrate more troops to participate in this battle to ensure that the final victory would not fall into the hands of others.
But in reality, on the Western Front, he also faced an even more formidable enemy, although the Roman Emperor Commodus had just died, and the vast empire would soon cross into the famous third-century crisis, and until Diocletian's reforms, he was as vulnerable as a fragile giant, but it was undeniable that the rapidly expanding Han Empire was diluting the loyalty and all the military forces that could be mobilized within the empire, and if it were not for the advanced productive forces, it was guaranteed to rule with pillboxes and barbed wire. I'm afraid that Suning will face a series of rebellions from within the empire.
There is no such pessimistic situation here, and Suning also needs to be on guard at all times. And if a large-scale war with the Roman Empire were to be launched, it would inevitably increase the burden on the lives of the people within its borders. In this way, it is easier to cause large-scale rebellions, so even if the war situation in the Central Plains is tense, Song Ning can only leave most of his troops on the Western Front, and he needs to spend more than 200 years to nurture a region like his homeland for Chinese civilization.
In such a comparison of forces, no rear hand can be easily taken out to show people, so as not to be guarded in advance by hostile forces, but this time, the yang and yin of his subordinates disobeyed, but his carefully prepared flintlock pistol appeared in front of the enemy. Although Suning's two systems and the mastery of gunpowder technology have long been known, the kind of thing with explosive power and this major threat equivalent to bows and arrows are obviously incomparable to those of all princes.
Yes, some things are over if you think about it for a while, but if you can continue to strike at a long distance, like a bow and arrow, it will also cause a huge shock to the morale of the army, and the number of soldiers killed in battle is far worse than the number of soldiers caused by explosives packs.
What's more, those young soldiers may not be able to gain an advantage in war.
Every time they hold advanced weapons in their hands, but they don't understand the atmosphere of war, there are some things that can be taught without strict training. The thick smell of blood can only be felt on the battlefield. If we are not mentally and technically prepared for this, then defeat is inevitable.
