Is it difficult to fight the party item? Before the first battle of Sanduchuan, Xu Ping's heart was not bottomless. In the history of previous lives, in various literature, film and television works, each of these rebellious ethnic minorities was able to fight well, the leader LinkedIn was clear and martial, and the soldiers were not afraid of death. Xu Ping got the impression from this, if it weren't for the fact that the Central Plains Dynasty had a lot of people in the land, he would have died many times.

How is it actually? Of course not. The party's military strength has always been at a disadvantage in the face of Shaanxi all the way. The Song Dynasty was dragged down by the party, first, the command system lost its strategic and campaign command ability, and second, the army lost its ability to maneuver, and it always formed a situation in which the party was beaten more and less locally. The Song Dynasty was not defeated by the party, but was killed by itself. There are historical and practical reasons for the formation of this situation, and it cannot be explained clearly in one sentence.

Re-estimating the strength of the two sides, in Xu Ping's current opinion, after completing the army training, as long as he has 150,000 soldiers in his hands, he can destroy the withering and decaying and sweep away the party. Yuan Hao's mobile forces were about 150,000 on the eastern front, including the Hengshan Qiang Division, while on the western front there were only 100,000 mobile troops. The 100,000 Central Army plus several soldiers and horses stationed in the Military Supervision Division were only 1670,000. With the regular army against the tribal army, the strength of the same force, one attack and one defense, one soldier and one soldier can also consume the party to death.

Sitting back on his seat, Xu Ping looked at everyone and said with a smile: "This battle against Yuzang Huama is a small test for us." All armies should not be complacent because of the victory, but should use the next free time to carefully find their own shortcomings. After occupying Yuzhong and Huichuan, we are no longer facing the Fan Fallen Army, but the Dangxiang Army. This time, there are 3,000 'Bubazi', and most of them were actually killed by the people of Yu Zang Huama, not by us, and there will be no such good things in the future. The difference between the regular army and the Fan Fallen Army has been seen by everyone from the three thousand 'foot soldiers'. In the end, surrounded on all sides, we charged and killed with heavy cavalry, but still more than 400 people died, and most of the soldiers who died in this battle were there. - Of course, victory is victory, war merit is war merit, and you don't have to be heavy to find your own shortcomings, and if you win, it will make the soldiers unhappy, of course that will not work. Those who draw lessons and find out their own shortcomings are limited to officers and men above the command level and below to celebrate their achievements in accordance with the normal situation. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Ping said to Chong Shiheng: "General judgment, you first pay 100,000 yuan from the Shuaifu, don't do anything else, only exchange wine and meat, and let the soldiers participating in the war eat and drink well this month." How to distribute wine and meat You have to arrange it, and every soldier, even if he is cooking and feeding the horses, must ensure that he has a big bowl of thick broth to drink every day. There is a deviation, but you ask! ”

Chong Shiheng promised, and thought about it: "100,000 yuan to buy wine and meat, will it make the price of cattle and sheep in Qinzhou rise?" ”

"It's good to go up. Seeing that it is winter, the Tibetan herdsmen can't raise so many cattle and sheep in the winter, we don't buy them, the price will inevitably fall, this is the practice of the year. We came, this year we harassed a lot of the Tibetan tribes around Qinzhou, and they were divided into villages, and the households were all together, which made many people worried. When they are in trouble, it is difficult to win people's hearts by showing their kindness. As the saying goes, the icing on the cake is not as good as sending charcoal in the snow, and we are now collecting a large number of cattle and sheep, which is to send charcoal in the snow. In addition to buying in the army, the marshal's government came forward to allocate money, and then openly collected cattle and sheep. Taking advantage of the cold weather in winter, he pickled it and made it into salted meat and sold it to the Central Plains. Or just wait for the Wei River to freeze in a few days, and use large ice cubes to transport fresh meat to the Central Plains. Let the people of the Central Plains eat cheap meat, and Qinzhou can earn the money they need, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? On the shepherd's side, don't just think about what you want your people to do, but think about what you can do for them. With the heartfelt support of the people, it will be much easier to fight. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Ping said to everyone: "It is often said that meritorious deeds are rewarded, the battle is over, the battle is won, and now is the time to reward meritorious deeds." Do not take it lightly, but do a good job in this matter, so that this battle can be consummated. The deputy commanders of the various armies must especially work this, and if they do not do it well, the marshal's office will make trouble for him! ”

When it came to rewarding meritorious deeds, everyone's mood relaxed. This was the first big victory in the war against the party, and according to the convention, the imperial court would inevitably reward it heavily, and every official present was promoted by one or two ranks.

At this time, the burden on Chong Shiheng's shoulders was the heaviest, he was in charge of the reward department of the Marshal's Mansion, and at the same time, he was also the general judge of Qinzhou, and he had to take into account both military and political aspects. Speaking of rewards, now Xu Ping has enough money in his hands, but Chong Shiheng doesn't dare to sprinkle money directly, he worked in Xu Ping's transfer envoy department when he was in Luoyang, and the concept of economy is very clear. The issuance of a large amount of money at once will inevitably lead to a shortage of materials, cause prices to skyrocket, and good things to bad things.

How to do it not only satisfy the soldiers who participated in the war, but also minimize the impact on the local economy of Qinzhou, Chong Shiheng must take care of the proportions. For him, the battle has just begun.

Xu Ping asked the soldiers to serve tea, let everyone chat, and relieve the suppressed emotions in the past few days.

Since a few months ago, knowing that Yuzang Huama was going to attack, Qinzhou began to prepare step by step, because Xu Ping attached great importance to it, everyone felt that they had a thousand catties of burden on their shoulders. In the end, the decisive battle was akin to a farce, and no big battle ended there. Now that I think back to the days of the previous months, everyone thinks it's funny.

After drinking tea for a while, Xu Ping said to Wang Gongchen: "Jun Zhen, this time we have captured a lot of Tibetans, and we will not put back the prisoners of war, so as not to cause further incidents in the future." Are you still short of people in your field? If there is a shortage of people, pick some strong bodies and a respectful attitude to fill in. If there is no shortage, I will send all of them to the south to transport grain. ”

Wang Gongchen said: "Let's let them go to transport grain, the camp and fields are full of Han people, everything has a certain rule, and if you bring in some Tibetan people, you may cause some trouble." There is really a shortage of people, or recruit from Sichuan and Shu, and we will save a lot of trouble. ”

Xu Ping nodded: "That's fine." After this battle, many places around it were vacant, and there was a shortage of manpower in the camp and field, so they could only be recruited from Sichuan and Shu. This time, all the Tibetan tribes who participated in the war, even those who did not come to Sanduchuan, had to raze their clan tents, and those with a respectful attitude merged into villages, and those who were not obedient had to be sent to the prison cities of various prefectures, or to the south to transport grain. Then the land of their tribe will be vacated, and you will send people to check it out, and if it is suitable for the cultivation of the fields, you will be subordinate to the camps. ”

Wang Gongchen agreed with a smile. Most of the fields suitable for cultivation in this area are in the valleys, and not all places are suitable for farming, and the plots that are too small can only be used to build villages, and it will lose money to the farms. The land of the camp is changed, and when some places become uneconomical, the camp will give up and sell the land. Especially in the Central Plains, after the land has been reclaimed and matured, many of them will give up, and the field workers who have started a family will directly become local households.

The limitation of productivity, when the population increases, and the fields cultivated by each person are small to a certain extent, the cost of managing the field increases, and it is not cost-effective to continue this pattern. The real suitability of the camp is still in the frontier tuntian.
