Helian Bo and Ling Foxyi nodded silently as they strolled forward, they didn't know the key to this, the northwest and northern Luzon seemed to be vast and rich in resources, but the weak economic foundation determined that the economy of these two places was not enough to support a large army in a short period of time. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Although the northwest has developed extremely rapidly in the past few years since Li Wufeng took over, the frequent wars have consumed a lot of financial reserves, and without the financial support of the empire, I am afraid that it would have gone bankrupt long ago. The situation in North Luzon is similar, it has been weak in the past 100 years, and there is not even a central city in Northwest Luzon, let alone economic development. Fortunately, after taking over North Luzon, many measures to stimulate economic development were quickly taken, so that the entire North Luzon was like a long-dormant machine, which finally began to start, gradually accelerated, and moved forward with difficulty on the road to take-off.
"In any case, we still have to thank the Luzon people, at least during their occupation, our northern Luzon did not suffer much damage, and our northwest Luzon is still developing and operating according to the established plan, and in this regard, we cannot but admit that the Luzon people are still quite sensible. Helian Bo nodded slightly, and although he hated the Luzon people, his words were still fair.
"Well, the Luzon people are quite smart in this regard, but there are a considerable number of Andeans in Northwest Luzon, and they also have to consider that if they act excesses, they will also harm the interests of their own people, so I am afraid it will be even more difficult for them to gain a foothold here. Luhmann explained with a smile.
kicked the stones on the side of the road out of the distance, and Ling Fox Yi also echoed thoughtfully: "At present, the surface of our west is basically quiet, but our defense force has weakened a lot, and the Northern Luzon Reading Infantry Division of the mountain pillar has now become an infantry division stationed in the Western Regions, not three or five years, I am afraid it will be difficult to come back, and the first division of Boss Liang is still staying in Wusun, it is said that it will probably not leave until the Western Regions are completely stabilized, and it is estimated that the possible surname to stay in our west is not too big, after all, the situation on the eastern front is still unclear." The strength of our division is now greatly damaged, and once Boss Liang and them leave, our side is really enough to choke. β
"I have a suggestion, isn't there a self-defense force of the five clans in Mingzhu Town now? Since the garrison force is now short of staff, it is better to supplement the self-defense force and enrich it, and after some training, it can also come in handy. Lu Man spoke slowly, thoughtfully.
"Lao Lu, I think the combat effectiveness of those self-defense forces is still better than our double-stacked reservists? Not to mention that Mingzhu Town is located in a remote area, and it is also inhabited by five ethnic groups, so it also needs a self-defense force to guard against it. Didn't you also advocate the formation of a self-defense force at that time?" asked Helianbo, a little puzzled.
"At this time, we were not on a firm foothold at that time, it was located on the edge of the green sea swamp, and the Indicians were disturbing to the west, and there were Luzon people in the south, and we couldn't take care of it at all, and there was no way out. Now the situation is different, the Indicians have been intimidated by us, and the Luzon people will not turn against us anytime soon, and it is not appropriate to retain this armed force that is outside our control. Lu Man smiled faintly and lowered his voice: "Master Li has long said that all armed forces must be in our own hands and must not be controlled by outsiders. β
"Could it be that the five clans still have any different intentions?" Helian Bo realized, but he couldn't help but ask.
"That's not true, but the area inhabited by the five tribes is located in the marginal area, and the people have always intermarried with the Indean and even the Komini people, if the children of the five thousand tribes are included in our garrison force, it can not only enrich the garrison force, but also strengthen the control of the five tribes, and prevent it from happening. A cunning glint flashed in Lu Man's eyes, "If necessary, Helian you will send a wing to garrison Mingzhu Town, but these five thousand children of the five clans must be scattered and placed in the entire division." β
Helian Bo and Ling Huyi glanced at each other, and sighed secretly in their hearts, the former comrades-in-arms have completely completed the transformation from officers to political axe officials, and everything is considered according to how to ensure the stability of the place, fortunately, they are all working for a master, but there is nothing, just some emotion. However, what the other party said was indeed reasonable, and Helian Bo and Ling Fox Wing both nodded silently in agreement.
"Old Lu, you seem to be very sensitive to the joining of other ethnic groups. , but there are several Gaoyue divisions under the command of Master Li. Ling Fox Yi smiled and broke the embarrassment.
"Gao Yue people are different. First of all, the Gaoyue people are actually deeply influenced by our Tang culture, and many customs and habits have gradually moved closer to our Tang people, and our advanced culture and way of life have deeply penetrated into the Gaoyue people, which is very different from the situation of the five ethnic groups, and now the Gaoyue people under the command of Master Li have been serving for many years, and the iron discipline of the army has trained them to become soldiers who are loyal to the orders and discipline of their superiors, and officers at all levels have been trained in the political and military training of the military academy, I am thinking that even if their elders order them to oppose Lord Li at this time, I am afraid that they will refuse to carry it out after thinking twiceγ Lu Man shook his head and smiled.
"One of the most important reasons is that the fate of the Gaoyue people has been firmly tied to Lord Li, so far there is still no political axe and force on this continent who is willing to recognize the equal status of the Gaoyue people even on the surface, let alone in the bottom of their hearts, Lord Li's supreme prestige has been deeply ingrained in the minds of all Gaoyue people, not to mention in the army. Lu Man had a look of reverence on his face, you must know that although Li Wufeng broke this taboo and was strongly hostile to the conservative forces in the empire, he conquered the hearts of the entire Gaoyue people in one fell swoop.
"Well, just look at the performance of this kid Shanzhu and his gang of men, it is easier to make them betray Lord Li than to make them commit suicide. Ling Foxwing grinned and nodded in agreement with Lu Man.
"Let's think about our own practical problems first, even if we are to integrate the Five Clans Self-Defense Force and replenish the reservists, the combat effectiveness will not be restored in a day or two, and it will take a lot of work to achieve results. Helian Bo sighed a little, "But after a bloody battle with the Luzon people, hehe, our army did not disgrace us, and also played the prestige of our double-pile garrison division!"
"Well, don't think about it so much, since Lord Li's main goal is in the east, let's honestly guard the west for your lordship, you step up military training, I'm working hard to develop the economy, I'm thinking that once the war in the east is over, hehe, our good show in the west is about to start." Luhmann agreed with Helenbo.
"Yes, the forces of all parties in the east are not weak, and if you really can't intervene, it is better to concentrate on the west to expand the territory. Even if the Luzon people reconcile with us, what about Loulan and Kuqa in the Western Regions? These two countries have always been unwilling to be lonely, and they will never be able to solve the problem without giving them a little bit of strength. There are also Indean people, fertile fields, large population, the best thing is that a huge Indean kingdom is divided into several major races and countless small tribes, civil strife, it is a good time to intervene, if you can support one faction to fight the other gang, hehe, this Indean will be more chaotic, it will be more beneficial to us, fishing in troubled waters, it is our Master Li's forte. Ling Fox Wing's words fluttered, and the two listeners also listened with great interest.
Seeing that Helian Bo and Lu Man were very interested, Ling Hu Yisuo was enough to show off: "The Indians have frequent civil strife, although the population is large, but the combat effectiveness of their various armies is indeed not flattering, and the combat effectiveness of the Punjab escort army among the Indians we defeated in the early stage is indeed not bad, but as far as we know later, this is already the most elite force among their Punjabs, and the guy named Mosso is one of the best brave generals among their Punjabs." Although the Hyderabad tribe is now in decline, after all, it has held the power of the central government of Indean for decades, and the foundation cannot collapse in a day or two, and there are still many small tribes behind the Hyderabad tribe that are closely related and friendly with them. β
"Now that the two sides of them have become inseparable, it is said that the Punjabs have counted the last time we ambushed the Hyderabad tribe, believing that the Annihilation planted in the Punjabs in Hyderabad betrayed the information, and deliberately designed this trap to seduce the Punjabs to take the bait, and now the contradictions between the two sides are even more acute. Ling Fox Wing smiled and groaned, "If we can help add firewood and fan the flames at this time, then Indean will be really lively." β
However, Helian Bo slowly shook his head and said thoughtfully: "Linghu, what you said may not be all right, the Indean people are definitely not good for us, but it is too chaotic to have a large-scale civil war, and it will not be of much benefit to us now." β
"Oh, Helian, what do you say?" asked Lu Man before Fox Wing could speak.
"It's very simple, if we are strong now, of course we can make them more chaotic and better, and we can also profit from it, but now that we are like this, where do we have the spare energy to think about other things? Helian Bo shook his head and smiled bitterly, "The Indean people have always been experts in civil wars and outsiders in foreign wars, and they can fight upside down internally, but when they encounter foreign enemies, they will be defeated, and a huge kingdom of tens of millions of people has been beaten again and again by the Luope people, and they have to pay tribute every year and pay astronomical sums of money to the Luope people, it is really hard to imagine how they endured it." β
"Also, I'm wondering if there is any other intention behind the fact that the Cormini and Luzon have also been reconciled?"
