Chapter 138: Military and Political
If he was really telling Li Hang about this, it is estimated that he would wrap himself in.
"Then the idea of establishing a military town there will not work?"
"It's not that it can't be done, it's just that where there is military power and money, it's not good!"
Li Hang pointed his hand forward, to the west of this Beiping county.
"If you really want to build a military town like this, I think this place will be better!"
If you want to talk about important military towns, there have been many since ancient times, such as Luoyang!
Even if Dong Zhuo burned Luoyang during the Three Kingdoms period, this place was still rebuilt.
Why? Is it because people are nostalgic?
That's because this place has a completely different meaning!
That's the military-strategic significance!
Whether it is a few nearby Xiongguan passes, or its dangerous terrain, this is quite terrifying.
Because this kind of place is more secure, this is the best place.
"Luoyang?" Emperor Win Wu's face showed a bit of caution.
At this time, looking at Li Hang pointing at Luoyang at this time, Ying Yun kept blinking on the side.
This guy can't be a, right, actually discharging himself?
Li Hang looked strange, but looked at this Luoyang curiously, nothing strange, nothing strange!
Lei Xiao smiled bitterly, this Li Xiucai is really a showman, I don't know this, I still want to make Luoyang an important town?
As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but walk to Li Hang's side, and then nodded to the top of Luoyang City. "Li Xiucai, the Great Jin Dynasty was founded here, and this is their national capital!"
Countries!
Li Hang's face changed, and only then did he know why Emperor Yingwu's face was so strange.
Because Emperor Yingwu knew that this place was the old capital of the former dynasty, that is to say, this ghost place was the place where the remnants of the previous dynasty were most concentrated, if it was said that a military town was established in this place. So before the remnants of the previous dynasty are not resolved, this is a very dangerous thing, after all, if it is really the remnants of the former dynasty who grasp the military power, then what will happen?
Li Hang even thought about it with his toes, they didn't have the army before they could use this disaster to carry out large-scale destruction and occupation, but if a large number of military personnel were stationed in Luoyang, although there was no problem in a short period of time, but if they were stationed for a long time, it was easy to be corroded by the remnants of the previous dynasty!
Once the army is mastered by the people here, then this thing is going to be bad.
Li Hang's face was a little embarrassed, after all, he was just talking now, and they were still a little embarrassed.
"This ...... It's just a purely geographically speaking, and I'm not involved in politics! Purely military point of view! Pure! ”
Li Hang's expression was slightly embarrassed.
Emperor Win Wu was stunned, and then laughed. Laughing happily!
Indeed, as Li Hang said, if you only talk about military affairs and not politics at this time, this place is indeed good, but if politics is involved, then relying on the Great Wall for defense is the best choice at this time.
"Beiping County, I'm going to ask the imperial grandson to send someone to help defend it!" Emperor Win Wu frowned, this method is actually to build momentum for the crown prince, on the other hand, the prince's people can monopolize power over there, and the Zhao family can also stabilize the position in the future without saying that the throne is unstable.
If there is a real change, this army stationed here can go directly to the border!
After all, the imperial grandson is the son of the crown prince, no matter what, this armed force is in the hands of the imperial grandson, which is equivalent to being in the hands of the crown prince.
And at this time, all the people are paying attention to the situation in Jinling City, so no one will care about the situation in the north at all, even if the emperor is in charge of the army, even if they have mastered this army of only a few hundred people, at most they have the ability to protect themselves, and these troops stationed in this place are definitely not the kind of non-professional soldiers who train in winter and harvest and farm in summer, but need real professional soldiers.
If you want to raise elites, you need money.
And the money for raising soldiers in this place requires a lot of provisions.
This is not something that Ying Yun can afford, and most of the land over there is in the hands of the family, if Ying Yun is really sealed up, it is estimated that he will not be able to support many elite soldiers.
Li Hang only reacted at this time, this Emperor Yingwu is afraid that he has already calculated some things, let himself run this tribute with them, and then wait until his fiefdom is rich, he can directly drive the economy of Beiping County, and then the two of them can drive a large number of people to make a fortune, and then the taxes can also be raised, raising a real professional army.
You must know that even in the hands of Emperor Yingwu, most of the army is semi-professional, and it can be said that more than sixty percent of the army is the product of the tuntian system, and at this time, the real professional army is the backbone of the army everywhere, and it costs money to feed these professional soldiers. You must know that many times of soldiers are like this, and there are even many armies in the Song Dynasty who are still doing technical work, such as carpenters, which is simply terrifying.
Having roughly understood Emperor Win Wu's intentions, Li Hang's expression was extremely strange.
"If this Beiping county wants to garrison troops, I have an idea, develop maritime transportation!"
Shipping is the real high-level transportation that can transport more things, and in this year's shipping, Li Hang really didn't expect them to really enter the rough sea, to be able to go along the coast to this side, with the help of the wind of the sea, it is estimated that it is much faster than the sea, and the sea draft is deeper, and there is still enough capacity. Coupled with the ability to radiate the surroundings, this is quite useful, and if you are willing to develop business, Beiping City can become the best business node!
"If Your Majesty wants to raise an army, then just use the things in this Donglin port, just to transport things to this Beiping County, plus if you can develop shipping at this time, then the transportation capacity will be greater, even if there is a war in the north, you can send troops up in a few days or even ten days, and the north and south can communicate with each other on weekdays!" Li Hang said as he looked at Emperor Yingwu, as the most powerful emperor of this era, this emperor had the keenest sense of military affairs.
"Shipping, those steppe barbarians are just nomads, and our development of cavalry is the right way......
Right! Cavalry cavalry is king, but ah...... Ten years of the Army, one hundred years of the Navy!
Nowadays, there are ships that can enter the ocean, but there are not many such ships that can withstand the stormy seas.
In addition, when many people were still confused at this time, Li Hang was extremely sober.
