Chapter 449: Battlefield Situation
……
In the fortress in the south of Luzhou in the Chinese Empire, Mu En, the general of Zhengnan, was wearing a right Chinese costume and looking at the battle report on the front line.
The generals of the Chinese Empire are very interesting, they usually do not wear battle armor very much, and even sometimes they command in the rear of the front line in literati clothes.
The generals of the Chinese Empire were not pure military generals, and most of them were both civil and military under the influence of the first emperor.
During the period of the first emperor of the Chinese Empire, it was stipulated that military generals must study, and even most of the military generals were civil servants in the early stage.
Before the establishment of the Chinese Empire, 100% of the literati were able to fight on horseback and govern the country when they dismounted, even if they all had their own shortcomings.
But I have to say that they all relied on their military exploits to get their current status.
If they didn't have the ability and didn't know how to fight, how could they be able to occupy a high position in the Chinese Empire.
Even Li Xueru, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites who advocated peace and a small war, was able to be in a high position now because he and the first emperor resisted the northern Norse people because of his military exploits.
In the fortress, Mu En looked at the battle report in his hand, and he was very puzzled in his heart, why the army of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire was so vulnerable.
It stands to reason that the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire was also considered a powerful empire, why was the army so unbearable.
Because the current offensive of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire is not considered a real offensive, because the Eastern Roman Byzantine Emperor Basil. Macedonia is now busy killing his son.
Basil. Macedonia wished that its two sons, Constantine and Leo, would die in battle, so that they could preserve their own reputation and that of their two sons.
It also allowed Princess Anastasia to succeed to the position of Emperor of the Byzantine Empire of Eastern Rome in the future.
If it was before Basil. Macedonia is still afraid that its own family's world will become someone else's, but since the alliance with the Chinese Empire.
Basil. Macedonia came up with a brilliant idea for Anastasia's future husband to choose to get married.
That's right, although the West has also had this concept before, but Basil. After Macedonia finished reading the books of the Chinese Empire, he found that he could play so much6.
Although it is very embarrassing in Chinese books, even in Chinese culture, the son-in-law is regarded as a heinous person.
But it doesn't matter, Basil. Macedonia was willing to do so, and when the battle with the Chinese Empire was over, Basil. Macedonia went back to make arrangements.
The general of Zhengnan, Mu En, really looked at the battle report, and at this time, a scout came in to inform him that the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire and the Kingdom of Bulgaria had sent troops to attack again.
Mu En frowned, he was very helpless, his army defending the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire and the Bulgarian Kingdom was tired.
Mu En even felt aggrieved, the Chinese Empire didn't know how many years it hadn't experienced this kind of defensive war.
Although the defensive war was not difficult for the southern general Mu En, because the soldiers who came to attack were very vulnerable.
But Muen was still tired of it, because he couldn't slack off in the midst of war.
Mu En was familiar with the art of war, and in his heart, even the generals of the Chinese Empire remembered what the first emperor said.
Strategically despise the enemy, tactically value the enemy.
This can be said to be something that all generals of the Chinese Empire must know, and Mu En does not think that it is wrong.
Because of this, Muen felt tired, and the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire often sent people to attack as if it did not know the slightest tiredness.
But often the army sent by the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire cannot be called an army, or even a militia.
These armies often did not have any decent armor, and the soldiers of the Chinese Empire were accurate with one sword.
Mu En did not think that the army of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire would really be so weak, and the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire was a large country in the south.
If the army was so weak, I am afraid that the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire would have already perished, and Mu En thought that this was just the enemy confusing him.
In fact, the army of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire did have a sense of deception. Macedonia wanted nothing more than its children to die in battle.
Anyway, Basil. Macedonia wanted the death of its two sons, and their death in battle was much more valuable than being killed by themselves.
On the one hand, their death in battle could make the army of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire more powerful.
It is more able to win a good name for himself, and it is better for the soldiers under his command to know his determination, and it can also let the Bulgarian king at both ends of the rat see his determination.
Another battlefield of the Chinese Empire, that is, the Eastern Battlefield of the Chinese Empire, the Rouran general Qi En was attached to the territory of the small chieftains of the Chinese Empire.
Of course, most of the people here were sent to the territory of the Huaxia Empire by Qi En, and Qi En couldn't bear to let these people die in vain!
These people are the population! What the Chinese Empire wants most now is population.
As a general of the Chinese Empire, Qi En naturally knows the strategy of the Chinese Empire over the years, and the Chinese Empire has encouraged more children over the years.
Because the food of the Chinese Empire can fully afford to support these children, on the other hand, in this period, the population is the greatest wealth.
Even in the future, the population is also wealth, otherwise why would the country open the second child when Gao Yang Yajun crossed.
Population is the greatest productive force, so the Chinese Empire advocates assimilation, not too cruel slaughter.
Of course, if it was really slaughtered, the court of the Chinese Empire actually didn't care so much, at most, it would be fined three glasses of wine, not an example.
Otherwise, what else could the court of the Chinese Empire do, and let these soldiers who slaughtered the people of the enemy country fail to pay for their lives?
But the generals also know that if they can, they won't kill them, and the population is also a military merit, and the living are worth much more than the dead.
Now the Chinese Empire is frantically building roads all over the country, and now that the northern Finland region is pacified, the Chinese Empire still needs the population to build roads and cities.
The culture of the Chinese Empire is infrastructure in its bones, and even the Holy Son of Heaven shouted out such straightforward words as building roads if you want to get rich.
But it has to be said that the roads of the Chinese Empire did make communication between the whole country more convenient.
The water and land routes of the Chinese Empire allowed the grain of the Chinese Empire to be transported quickly to all parts of the country, and the supplies of the army could also be transported quickly along the roads.
The Chinese Empire not only built roads at home, they even built roads in the vassal Kingdom of Poland and Lizhou.
The Chinese Empire closely linked the Kingdom of Poland and the State of Lizhou with itself by building roads.
Most of the people who built the roads were prisoners of war, and of course the treatment of the Chinese Empire was still good, at least with food.
Therefore, the population is really very important, and the general Qi En, who was the leader of a tribe before, can understand this more clearly.
Rouran General Qi En was frowning and looking at the battle report in his hand.
The handwriting on the battle report is the handwriting of Qi Yi, Qi En's son, who said in the battle report that he had annihilated more than 1,000 enemies and captured more than 4,000 enemies.
Fortunately, Qi Yi's next words made Qi En's face turn pale.
