Chapter 339 Immigrate to the Northeast
PS: It's a change today
Northeast, black soil, fertile land.
In later generations, the Northeast was a treasure land, a commercial grain base, and a heavy industry base. It's just that in today's Great Song Dynasty, the Northeast is just a wild land.
Poverty, embarrassment, desolation, nothing.
At this time, the Tohoku region was full of uncultivated raw soil, and it took a lot of time to convert it into cooked soil that was easy to cultivate. It is necessary to develop early, shoot early and harvest early, and shoot late to harvest.
Historically, the Khitan people rose from the northeast, thinking about going south day and night, thinking about invading the Central Plains; And the Jurchens also wanted to go south day and night and invade. And Zhao Pu wants to do the opposite, develop the Northeast, and immigrate to the Northeast.
Compared with immigrating to Southeast Asia, exploring the Americas, Oceania and other places by sea, immigrating to Northeast China is less difficult and more rewarding. You can also fight and operate at the same time, set a nail in the heart of the Jin army, contain the Jin army's strength, and even counterattack the Jin army at a critical moment.
In the Northeast, the territory is too vast, and the Jurchen forces are only near the Liao River and a few big cities near the Songhua River. In many areas, in the vacuum of Jurchen power, rule is extremely weak.
In addition, in addition to the Jurchen people, there are many ethnic minorities in the Northeast, such as the Khitans, Bohai people, Xi people, etc. Some of these races have a deep enmity with the Jurchens, and they only temporarily succumb to the Jurchens, and once the Jurchen forces are weakened and show a trace of fatigue, they will bite away and deal a devastating blow to the Jurchens.
It is very important to immigrate to the Northeast, as long as you find the key point, you will get unexpected benefits.
First of all, a strong navy is needed to form a strong maritime capacity for thousands of miles of transportation for the development of the Northeast. Provide good material support. This is now almost bigger, in Quanzhou, Fuzhou, Hangzhou and other places, forming a number of powerful shipyards, as long as he wants, a powerful warship, transport ships, will be quickly baked.
Secondly. It is necessary to take the island or the harbor as the center to form a radiation force, cultivate and train troops in peacetime, and attack in wartime. Erosion of the Northeast step by step. It's not that difficult. In this era, the importance of sea power is not realized at all. There is no such thing as an island chain. On the ocean, Song Jun is still in a childish state, and the Jurchen is even more in a baby state.
With the island as the center, it is not difficult to build a strong fortress to resist the attack of the Jin army.
At this time, some islands near Liaodong. And Vladivostok in the north is the best choice. Once the scale is formed, it will become the eternal pain of the Jin Army.
Again, and the rarest. There is no better leader than a leading general.
In the northeast, relying on the island, the formation of a situation to contain the Jin army, although there is a navy to help, but more importantly, hanging alone outside the territory, fighting alone, there is always the danger of annihilation, and Zhao Pu has no plan to be sure.
Going to the Northeast to establish a base requires a fearless spirit and the courage to survive in the dead. It is also necessary to have flexible diplomacy, constantly disintegrating the enemy, isolating the opponent, and winning over the allies.
The generals who go to the Northeast must be both civil and military, and they must be very strong both militarily and politically.
It is not easy to choose at this point, Zhao Pu carefully counted the generals of the Song army, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Liu Guangshi, Wu brothers, etc., and flashed their faces one by one. Just qualified members, not one.
"Where's my class?" Zhao Pu sighed leisurely.
Counting the achievements of the past year, Zhao Pu's heart is full of pride.
Compared with the past, Zhao Pu's political skills are more mature, his methods are more sophisticated, and his control over his courtiers is more superb. There are still many courtiers who deliberately oppose and deliberately block the way, but they can no longer hinder the continuation of the reform. The imperial court did not justifiably talk about changing the law, but on the whole, major changes were taking place.
Each prime minister, each performing its own duties, plays its own role.
And he, the emperor, is more of a supervisor, and once there is something excessive, or inappropriate, he will correct it in time.
At this time, the Jin army is fighting, it will not be like last time, it is embarrassed, and it has enough strength to repel the Jin army, and even hit it hard.
…………
"The road is long, the road has just begun, there can be no slackness!"
Zhao Pu put away a trace of pride in his heart and secretly admonished.
"Your Majesty, you're awake!"
"Wake up!"
"Your Majesty, what are you thinking?"
"Thinking about the Northern Expedition. I can't wait to destroy the Jin army and immediately go on the Northern Expedition, but I know that I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and the Northern Expedition is not a joke, and there is no room for negligence. A slight negligence may ruin ten years of work, and I can't afford to lose. The Northern Expedition has only one chance, and if it fails, there will be no more! ”
Zhao Pu said quietly.
"The big war is more of a clash of morale, one blow of strength, then decline, and three exhaustions. If you fight three times in a row and haven't played yet, you're completely losing. ”
"It's like the Jin Army, which is militarily powerful, but politically it is extremely idiotic. The first time he fought the Song Dynasty, he defeated Bianliang, and the compensation for the land was withdrawn; The second time he broke through Bianliang, captured the two emperors and left; The third attack reached the Huai River, and then retreated; The fourth time, after a long attack, he also retreated. ”
"Attacking the Song Dynasty four times in a row, winning again and again, it seems to be magnificent, but in fact it is extremely stupid."
"It is better to cut off one of its fingers than to hurt its ten fingers."
"You should chase the poor bravely, and you can't sell your name as a scholar!"
"As the saying goes, cutting grass does not remove roots, and the spring breeze blows and grows."
"As the saying goes, kill people and kill them, save people and save lives."
"The Jin army is very strong, but in the attack, it attacked in many ways, dispersed its troops, and every time it was about to completely defeat the Song army, it retreated, leaving the Song army a chance to breathe. It seems that I have gone south again and again, and the harvest is huge. In fact, if you fail strategically, you will leave room for the enemy, that is, you will cut off your own way of living. ”
As a result, the current confrontation has become a trend, and after a few years of savings, the Song army can even go on a northern expedition. The tide of battle is gradually turning against you! ”
Zhao Pu couldn't help but feel sorry for Jin Jun, and he was also glad for his fate.
God, I still care about Da Song, otherwise how could I let Jin Jun make mistakes again and again.
On the contrary, the Qing army in history was much smarter, from entering the customs to capture Beijing, to going south to Yangzhou, the speed of advance was extremely fast, and the speed of quickly eliminating the Ming army and the peasant army was so fast that it was staggering. The rapid advance made the peasant army and Ming Jun have no chance to breathe at all, and they can only keep running away and be annihilated in the run.
The Jin army divided its troops and advanced slowly, these two major shortcomings caused the Jin army to lose the opportunity to destroy the Song Dynasty, lose the opportunity for great unification, and also left Zhao Pu with the opportunity to counterattack.
In short, Jin Jun is making mistakes, and Zhao Pu has a way to live.
Otherwise, Zhao Pu may really want to go into exile overseas and organize a government-in-exile.
The mistakes made by the Jin army, he will not make them again.
Wang Wuyue said: "Your Majesty, I feel sorry for the Jin Kingdom!" ”
Zhao Pu said: "In the past, I always felt that God was not good to me, there was a lot of suffering, and there was a lot of trouble, in fact, God was good enough for me, but I was confused by fear and couldn't see!" (To be continued......)
