Wang fu.

Wang Jian was lying on the bed, dying, his breath was fading, and he seemed to be dying at any time.

On the side of the bed, Xiang Yu sat upright, thinking slightly.

Not long ago, Xiang Yu was going to go on an expedition, but Wang Jian was sick.

Xiang Yu came to visit and gave gifts, but everyone retreated, leaving only two people.

"Old general, Daqin can't do without you!"

Xiang Yu pondered, thought about some words, and said leisurely: "Old general, in the past, he followed Guowu Anjun and fought in Changping. Now, he is the only surviving veteran, and the old general will inevitably accompany him in this battle! ”

Ahem, ahem!

Wang Jian coughed and said, "Son, the old man is old, and if you walk for a while, you will have back pain." Now he can't ride a horse, he can't bend a bow, and he is already an old horseman. There is no shortage of famous generals in my Daqin, Li Xin is very capable of fighting, and with him on the expedition, this battle will be won! ”

Xiang Yu said: "Li Xin, good at scheming, good at surprise attacks, every time he fights, he is either a big victory or a big defeat. But the old general is different, the old general is extremely steady, the battle that can be won will never be lost, and the battle that can be lost will never be won! ”

"As for the state of Chu, its military strength is only inferior to that of the state of Zhao. The state of Chu is dominated by feudal monarchs, and there are many nobles, and when it comes to overall warfare and military mobilization capabilities, it is naturally inferior to my Qin Dynasty. It's easy to defeat the State of Chu, but it's very difficult to destroy the State of Chu, it's very difficult! ”

"There are some countries that are difficult to beat, such as Zhao. Because the army is strong, but if you defeat the army, you can destroy the country. But there are countries that are easy to defeat, but it is very difficult to destroy them. This time we attacked the Chu State, the purpose is not to defeat the Chu State, but to destroy the Chu State, only the old general will come out! ”

The Warring States period was an era of general warfare.

One out of each household, gathered into hundreds of thousands of troops; There were women again, and the old people were in the rear, carrying grain and grass.

Zhao, Qin, Wei, South Korea and other countries have successively completed the general war, forming a huge military mobilization capacity and a terrifying attack capability.

But the state of Chu, because in the south, there are many rivers and swamps, and it is dominated by feudal monarchs, resulting in extremely poor military mobilization capabilities.

The Qin State has captured the borders of the Chu State and occupied a large amount of territory, but the army of the Chu State has not yet been assembled and has not yet been gathered.

Because of the lack of mobilization capacity, it was easy for Qin to defeat Chu.

But the state of Chu is too big, even if it loses Hanzhong, Hanshui and other regions, it is still a vast area and a large population, once the Qin army penetrates deep into the interior of Chu, it will be blocked by rivers, swamps, and the vast strategic depth of Chu, and the strength will be diluted.

It is also because of the unfamiliarity with the geographical advantages, coupled with the strong style of the Chu people, it is easy to suffer a big loss.

Xiang Yu opened his mouth to speak, talking about the attack on Chu State, the climate, geographical advantages, humanities, grain and grass transportation, etc., all kinds of difficult problems, and talked a lot.

Wang Jian smiled.

Gongzi Fusu is a person who knows soldiers.

Wang Jian smiled and said: "If the son leads the troops, how to destroy Chu!" ”

Xiang Yu said: "If I lead the troops and attack the Chu State, I will use protracted warfare, positional warfare, and attrition warfare to constantly suppress the borders of the Chu State, so that the Chu State has enough time to mobilize the army." Then he constantly confronted the Chu army, consumed the grain and grass of the Chu army, and was patient. ”

"My Qin State already has a lot of grain and grass, and it has ten major granaries, and after destroying Han Zhaowei, the grain output is more. In the land of the Three Jin Dynasty, most of them are fields, and there is a lot of grain output; However, the land of Chu is shallow, but it is mainly based on the fields. continues to fight for consumption, and in the end it is the Chu State that can't hold on! After all, it is better to lose food than to lose soldiers' lives."

"If it can't hold on, the state of Chu will inevitably take the risk of attacking, or the transfer of the strategy, but no matter what the choice, the state of Chu has already lost. Xiang Yan was reduced to Zhao Kuo again, and he was able to stage the Battle of Changping! ”

"The Chu people are light, good at surprise attacks, good at sports warfare, surging in blood and blood, good at bloody battles. But the staying power is insufficient, once the morale falls, then the pursuit, the Chu army will be defeated! ”

Wang Jian nodded. But he still sighed: "It's a pity, old and old!" ”

Xiang Yu said: "The battle to destroy Chu will be the last battle. Once the world is unified, the military merit system will be abolished. At that time, the father will canonize more than 100 liehous, most of whom will be sealed in fertile and rich places such as Qi and Chu. At that time, the number of households in the feudal domains of the liehou was at least 2,000, and the number was 30,000. ”

"At that time, I, Daqin, will share the world with many generals, Daqin will not be destroyed, and the generals' wealth will not be destroyed!"

Xiang Yu drew a flatbread and opened the sub-sealing system in advance.

The essence of the sub-enclosure system is the shareholding system.

The so-called Son of Heaven and the nobles share the world, the Son of Heaven and the generals share the world, the Son of Heaven and the scholars share the world, the Son of Heaven and the bourgeoisie share the world, and so on.

Even if it's Ma's father, he has to give shares to some people.

Bill Gates, who is awesome, also has to give up some of his shares to others.

As for those who pursue 100 percent control, they often fail to develop.

Among the emperors of all dynasties, Qin Shi Huang had the most power, he was 100% controlled, and he only had employees and no shareholders, so Great Qin perished.

The dynasty was the company, the emperor was the majority shareholder, the officials were the employees, and the nobles were the minority shareholders.

As far as employees are concerned, it doesn't matter if the company goes bankrupt or not, anyway, they are all wage earners there, and it doesn't matter if they change companies.

But shareholders are different, if the company goes bankrupt, the interests of shareholders will also be damaged. Therefore, shareholders work hardest and do their best to safeguard the interests of the company.

The nobility is the same, there are privileges in the dynasty, but when the dynasty dies, the privileges will disappear, and they will desperately defend the dynasty.

Why did the Qin Dynasty fall?

It is because the Qin Dynasty only has officials, not nobles, and for many officials, it doesn't matter if Great Qin perishes, they still become officials. Having taken refuge in the rebels, maybe they can go further. This is the drawbacks brought about by Qin Shi Huang, who was reluctant to give shares to meritorious heroes and was reluctant to convert some officials into nobles.

Liu Bang is much smarter, after becoming the emperor, he only controls 50% of the equity, the remaining 30% of the equity is given to the clan, and the remaining 20% is given to the founding hero.

With equity and becoming a shareholder, it naturally protects the interests of the Han Dynasty.

There were rebels in the locality, and there was no need for the central government to take action, and the local feudal lords, the liehous took action to destroy the rebels.

The enthusiasm of shareholders is not at the same level as the enthusiasm of employees.

If the company wants to become bigger, it must give employees shareholders, not eat alone, let employees become shareholders, and the company can become bigger.

Similarly, if the dynasty wants to become bigger, it must canonize some officials as nobles, give shares, and share the world, so that the dynasty can last for a long time.

If the Qin Dynasty eats alone like this, it is reluctant to give shares to officials, and it will not last long.

After saying for a while, Xiang Yu left.

But Wang Jian was still pondering.

In digesting the news of the world, dividing the feudal princes, and dividing the clansmen.

These feudal kings, liehous, etc., mainly Qi and Chu, are mixed between the counties and counties, and the power of the feudal monarch is restricted, such as half of the three feudal monarchs of household tax and half of the imperial court; There are also restrictions on the number of troops; In internal affairs, some officials are appointed by the central government.

But even so, the power of the feudal lord is very large.

Wang Jian estimated that with his current merits, he can enjoy at least 30,000 households.

"Childe Fusu, amazing!"

………

About a month later, Wang Jian recovered from his illness.

As his illness recovered, Wang Jian joined the Southern Expedition.

Riding on a war horse, he embarked on the journey again, and when he arrived at the border pass, he deliberately slowed down his speed and gave the Chu army a chance to gather a large army.

All this is commanded by Wang Jian and his son.

Xiang Yu just watched, didn't say anything, and didn't overstep the command.

Although his command level and strategic level were no worse than Wang Qian's, he still chose to remain silent.

Because he is the crown prince and the future emperor, there is no need to do the things of a general.

As an emperor, you must learn to be lazy and let your courtiers have something to do.

As the saying goes, if the emperor is too capable, the courtiers will lose their jobs, and the country will be unstable. For example, Qin Shi Huang, such as Chongzhen.

After arriving at the frontier, the armies of the two sides were converging, confronting, and fighting.

In the defense, small battles are fighting; But a large-scale battle, Wang Jian avoided.

Because there is no need.

can use grain and grass to kill the enemy, why should it consume the lives of the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty.

The confrontation went on like this, and the confrontation continued for more than a year.

The soldiers of the Qin Dynasty were a little bored and wanted to go to war all the time; But the Chu army was tired and demoralized.

After a year of continuous confrontation, the Chu army was a little unbearable.

At the same time, the king of Chu sent an order, hurry up and attack, there is not enough grain and grass in the rear.

Xiang Yu sighed and said, "I'm going to be Zhao Kuo!" ”

But he knew that if he attacked the Qin State at this moment, he would definitely lose.

The only fortunate thing is that Zhao has a small territory and a small strategic depth, so Zhao Kuo can only take the risk of attacking, starving to death if he does not attack, and there is still a chance of winning if he attacks;

However, the state of Chu has a vast area and huge geographical depth, so it can change space and time, constantly disperse the enemy's forces, constantly fatigue the enemy, and then look for opportunities in the movement war.

Xiang Yan led the army and began to carry out a strategic turnaround.

However, as the turn of the war, the Qin army began to attack, and the Chu army changed from strategy to rout.

This also once again exposed another shortcoming of the Chu army, the Chu army had poor military discipline and preferred to fight independently, especially the orders of the feudal lords in various places were not uniform.

Soon the rout continued, and Wang Jian led the army to chase and kill.

The Chu army was defeated, and Xiang Yan committed suicide in defeat.

The pillar of the state of Chu fell.

Looking at Xiang Yan's corpse, Xiang Yu was silent and speechless.

Among the armies of the Seven Kingdoms, only the Qin army, the Chu army, and the Zhao army can really fight.

The Qin army has the best military discipline, the best training of the soldiers, obeys the orders of the superiors, and is the best soldier, but the disadvantage is that the generals lack flexibility in combat, are dull, and do not know how to be flexible.

The military discipline of the Zhao army is relatively poor, but the army has strong attack power, is good at winning and defending the city by surprise, and the defense is first-class, the only drawback is that the food and grass are insufficient, and the national strength is not supported.

The military discipline of the Chu army was poor, and the officers liked to advocate independently, were good at surprise attacks, and were good at sports warfare, but the shortcomings were that they could not do overall warfare, their mobilization ability was insufficient, and their staying power was insufficient. Once the Chu army falls into a protracted war, the soldiers of the Chu army will fall into anxiety, and they will show their flaws and be defeated.

The Zhao army and the Chu army are not inferior to the Qin army in terms of combat effectiveness.

In the same number of army battles, the Qin army won and lost half.

It's a pity that war is never just a simple army contest, and Zhao's national strength is insufficient, and food is insufficient, which is not enough to protract the war; The feudal monarchy of Chu was prevalent, and the military mobilization capacity was insufficient.

The state of Zhao was restricted by the economy, and the state of Chu was restricted by the political system, and after all, it was invincible to the state of Qin.

As for the Han army, the Wei army, the Yan army, the Qi army, etc., are relatively weak.

Of course, even the weak South Korea, Yan State, etc., will be a first-class power in later generations.

When the weak Yan State encountered the Eight Banners Army, it was definitely the destruction of the Eight Banners Army.

When the Mongol army met the Zhao army, it was also the end of the end.

In this era of total warfare, everything is in the service of war, and it is also the era when the military strength of China has been the most powerful. As for later generations, because the enemies around them were too weak, they gradually forgot about the general war, and many dynasties did not even know how to fight.

In the twenty-fourth year of the First Emperor (224 BC), Wang Jian led an army to defeat the Chu army in Yuqi (southeast of present-day Suzhou, Anhui), forcing the Chu general Xiang Yan to commit suicide. Then the Qin army invaded the Chu capital Shouchun and captured the king of Chu. Qin set up Jiujiang County (Shou County, Anhui) and Changsha County (Changsha City, Hunan) in Chu.

In the twenty-fifth year of the first emperor (222 BC), Wang Jian pacified the Jiangnan land of Chu, subdued the king of Yue, set up Huiji County, and the state of Chu perished.
