Chapter 689: Relocation of the People's Army
There is one thing to say, Chen Yi this idea. It's a bit simple, but if you get it right, it's really bad.
The big families are not so easy to deal with, it's not that you want to provoke their relationship, they will be fools.
These people are thieves, and their vision and experience are no worse than those of ordinary local officials.
But if Zuo Fengyi's family and people moved to Youfufeng, those Zuo Fengyi families really didn't have the confidence to rebel.
In today's Guanzhong, most of the families left behind are crooked melons and cracked dates that cannot be put on the table, and they have long been without the strong and powerful in the former Han Dynasty, and even dare to confront Emperor Xiaowu.
In other words, migration is a feasible and provocative thing. I'll just talk about it later.
It's just that if you move like this, it's a bit of a problem.
It's August now, and it's almost September, and it's been about half a year since the war was calmed down and the people returned to their hometowns.
Seeing that winter is coming, Liu Bei's group can't learn from the example of full pets, and force the people to set off with a ring knife, which is bound to carry out a certain degree of mobilization, which is not something that can be done in two or three months, if you add winter, this migration time may be as long as half a year.
The current Zuo Fengyi adds up, but there are more than 10,000 households, more than 70,000 people, and it doesn't seem to be a difficult thing to consider from this point of view.
Zuo Fengyi's people and family are really a little too few.
Zuo Fengyi's size is comparable to that of Rightfufeng, which is equivalent to the size of Anding County and Beidi County combined, but now there are only 18,000 households and more than 70,000 people in Dingkou. That's the total population of thirteen counties.
Although there are inevitably some people who have not come out of the mountains and forests, as well as Dingkou who have been hidden by the family, but even so, the population is indeed pitiful.
Even if it is not "a thousand miles without a rooster crowing", it is estimated that there will be no more than 20 people in an average village.
After the right Fufeng next door has been relocated with full pets, there are still 50,000 households left, 220,000 Dingkou, so in comparison, Zuo Fengyi is indeed too small in the number of Dingkou, migrating to the right Fufeng and enriching the population of the right Fufeng, which is completely the right choice.
Again, the geographical location of Zuo Feng Yi is a little different from that of Zuo Fufeng.
Youfufeng is located on the south side of Chang'an, which can directly connect the three counties of Shangyong, and has Weishui as the backing, and it is 500 miles away from the Wuguan occupied by Cao Wei, which is convenient to defend.
Although Zuo Fengyi is also backed by Beidi County and Anding County, and also has the Jing River as a backing, it is only 300 miles away from Tongguan.
And the geographical location of Tongguan is not the same as Wuguan, Wuguan that place, the key to the dangerous terrain lies in the mountains and forests, to enter Wuguan or send troops from Wuguan, first of all, you must pass through a long Wuguan Road, and Wuguan Road is completely in the mountains and forests, easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it is also inconvenient to enter and exit.
Therefore, even if Cao Wei wanted to send troops from Wuguan to attack Guanzhong, Liu Beifang only needed to watch Wuguan Road and carry out key defenses.
But Tongguan is on the edge of the Yellow River, although the terrain is also very dangerous, but this advantageous side of the terrain is always for the hinterland of the Central Plains in the Guannei.
To attack Tongguan in Guanzhong, we must first overcome the harsh terrain environment, and then consider how to conquer Tongguan, but when we send troops from Tongguan to attack Chang'an, people just give up the danger to defend, and they want to send troops, and they can go out at any time.
Otherwise, where did so many stupid emperors come from in history, and the main general would have to abandon Tongguan and take the initiative to fight, I don't think the advantage is mine, and I really can't beat it, and we can come back and continue to hold on.
Although the brain circuits are somewhat strange, it seems that on paper, there is no room for such operations.
In addition, attacking Guanzhong from Guannei, in addition to sending troops from Tongguan, there is actually another way, that is, to follow Cao Cao's method of pacifying Guanzhong, cross the river from Pubanjin of the Yellow River into Guanzhong, and directly take Zuo Fengyi.
Therefore, for Zuo Fengyi, to defend the Wei army in the pass, it is necessary not only to guard against the direction of Tongguan, but also to defend along the Yellow River. Just rely on Zuo Fengyi's 70,000 Dingkou now to defend a wool.
The people are insufficient, no one cultivates the land, it is impossible to support the supply of grain and grass required by the garrison in the local area, all the grain and grass supplies must be transferred from Chang'an, which is tantamount to artificially lengthening the logistics supply line, once the Cao army really sends troops from the Yellow River or Tongguan, there is no need to send too many soldiers and horses, only need to send about 3,000 rangers, specifically responsible for harassing the grain and grass supply line of Zuo Fengyi's garrison, this Zuo Fengyi can not hold on.
No matter how you look at it, Zuo Fengyi's defense method cannot copy the key defense method of Right Fufeng, and the deployment method must be reconsidered.
And Chen You's other purpose of suggesting that the people and families of Zuo Fengyi be migrated is also here-Chen Yi suggested that the military camp be implemented in Zuo Fengyi.
On the one hand, the advantages of the military cantonment can meet the needs of Zuo Fengyi's defense, and on the other hand, it can also allow the soldiers to be self-sufficient, cultivate on the spot, and hoard the military rations needed for the garrison.
And according to Chen Yi's estimate, whether it is the Han Dynasty or Cao Wei, the two major wars in the past five years are times when it is in urgent need of recuperation, even if Cao Wei's size, facing two or even three-line battles in a row, it is not so comfortable, and in the short term, it is unlikely to take the initiative to launch a strategy against Guanzhong from the direction of Tongguan or Pubanjin.
At this time, it is the most appropriate time to move the people and arrange military cantonments.
By the time Cao Wei eased up and wanted to attack Guanzhong, Zuo Fengyi's people should have already completed their migration, and even the military tun should have formed a certain scale, and at that time, there would be no need to worry about the supply of grain and grass for the time being.
You have to say that Chen You's suggestion is really a good suggestion for killing multiple birds with one stone.
But, after all, it's just a suggestion.
Chen You's talent is indeed outstanding, but in the end, his time in politics is too short, and many things are considered to be a little lacking after all. The idea is a good idea, but when it comes to implementation, there are a lot of troubles.
Not to mention anything else, Zuo Fengyi's territory is too big, and it is a well-known mature cultivation area in the world. Where did so many soldiers come from to build a military camp?
Taking Youfufeng as an example, the 220,000 Dingkou plus the 70,000 Dingkou who migrated from Zuo Fengyi totaled nearly 300,000 people, which can probably ensure the effective use of cultivated land.
And Zuo Fengyi, which is about the same size, if it is all used to build a military camp, then how many soldiers must be arranged to work here so that all of Zuo Fengyi's cultivated land will not be wasted? !
How many soldiers are there in the Han Dynasty, do you have to wait until Zuo Fengyi to build a military camp? !
Even in Cao Wei, the size of the military tun has not been too large, and the actual efficiency of the military tun is not too high if there is no Mintun as a supplement. In the entire Zuo Fengyi Army, if Cao Pi in Luoyang can sleep soundly, then he will have a virtue with Sima Zhen.
One more. In the past, Ji Han did not engage in any form of tuntian.
Liu Bei knew what the people wanted.
In these years, whether it is the people or the family, the obsession with the land is the deepest.
There is no way, who let the productivity of these years and months be like this, and encounter troubled times, the grain grown in the land is the most valuable hard currency in these years.
Therefore, the strategy of Liu Bei's group has always been to meet the people's demand for land as much as possible, so that more people can become free people, rather than semi-serfs bound by tuntian.
This is not only responsible for the people, but also responsible for the state's taxes and servitude and other financial revenues.
Similarly, this is why Liu Bei Group has not been too close to the family and has always suppressed the family. It's really not for the little bit of land in the hands of the family, the key is the large number of hidden dingkou in the hands of the family, which Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and even the later Chen Yi reign can't tolerate.
Now, Chen Yi suggested that Zuo Fengyi should engage in Tuntian, and it is really difficult to figure out what Liu Bei's attitude is towards this strategy.
Although it is said that the initiative of Juntun is controlled by the state, and Juntun is mainly done by the army, if Liu Bei really doesn't want to do anything in Tuntian and doesn't want to start this one, then even Zhuge Liang may not be able to convince Liu Bei.
In addition, once Zuo Fengyi is to relocate the people, divide the military cantonment area, and arrange for the non-commissioned officers to change the defense tuntian, this is also a lot of government affairs, and the adjustment of military affairs is not so easy and simple to solve with a single order.
Chen Yi is a little younger and inexperienced, so he thinks about things a little more simply.
But this can't be blamed on him, his duty is to assist Zhang Xi in handling government affairs, since he has an idea, it is impossible for him not to put it forward, as for how to implement it after it is proposed, how to improve it, this is a problem that needs to be discussed and solved together.
Therefore, after carefully thinking about Chen Yi's suggestion, Zhang Xi felt that it seemed to be a bit of a trick, and immediately sent someone to find Jiang Wan and Wei Yan to discuss the possibility of this military camp from both military and political aspects.
After discussing with these two people, Zhang Xi sent another letter to Zuo Feng Yi and Right Fufeng, recruiting Zuo Feng Yi to guard Hu Fen, Jun Cheng Zhao Lei, Right Fu Feng to guard Liu Yin, and Jun Cheng Zhang Yi to come to Chang'an to discuss the practical possibility of relocating people and military tun.
After these people discussed and came up with a roughly feasible report, Zhang Xi took the report and went to meet Liu Bei in person, together with his own recital, to elaborate on the plan proposed by Chen Yi to relocate the people to the army.
These things must be decided by Liu Bei personally, and it is not for Zhang Xi to make a decision alone.
