583 What is the Age of Peace?
After entering the territory of Quyang County, the soldiers of the Quyang New Army and the Xiao Cavalry Army began to go crazy collectively-
Looking up and down the Chu army, cheers came and went...... Frightened, the farmers working in the fields by the roadside stopped to watch.
No wonder.
At the beginning, Sima Cuo's 300,000 army invaded the state of Chu, and the first king was defeated, and the enemy army drove in and rushed into the capital of Ying...... The form is extremely bad, and the outside world thinks that the state of Chu is bound to fall, and the only suspense is how long it can last.
At that time, the fiefdom of the four counties, although they still had full confidence in their own lords, believed that the invincible little princes would eventually be able to turn the danger into victory and defeat the enemy......
However, the soldiers are also ready to make great sacrifices for this.
Before leaving the army, all the sergeants reluctantly said goodbye to their families...... Everyone believes that what awaits them will be a bloody battle that will not survive one in ten!
Fortunately, now, everything has settled - Quyang Hou has a strange plan to break the enemy army!
And his own Quyang soldiers did not pay much price.
After a year, the soldiers set foot on the land of Quyang County again, how can they not have mixed feelings?
"Haha! Came back alive! ”
"After a year away from home, the youngest son in my family should also grow up......"
"A few days ago, I exchanged the loot for a lot of copper coins in the Langya market - I want to teach my father and mother to be happy!"
"I already knew that if I followed the prince, I would win!"
"Without a little lord, how can there be a rich life today...... the soldiers cheered warmly.
Whether it is the Quyang New Army or the Xiao Cavalry Army, they have always been known for their strict management of troops and strict military laws - like now, those who make loud noises on the march will be severely punished in the past to clarify military discipline.
But today, it's clearly different.
Xiong Wuliang on the bronze chariot was also in a good mood because he had returned to the fiefdom. The eyebrows that had been furrowed just now because of what he thought of were now stretched out - in short, he didn't mean to blame the soldiers.
Even Shaohu, the commander of the Quyang New Army, grinned widely, looking happy.
The main general is like this, and the generals and colonels at all levels are naturally too lazy to restrain military discipline, so let the officers and men of the three armies cheer!
Only the commander of the cavalry army, Ge Suyi, had a sad face and an indescribable expression.
Xiong Wuliang was keenly aware of the sadness of this cavalry general, and immediately shouted: "Ge Suyi? ”
Ge Suyi came back to his senses and arched his hand: "Master." ”
Xiong Wuliang narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly: "After Benhou ascends to the throne, he will definitely raise troops to the Northern Expedition, sweep the world, unify the six countries, and extinguish the sword soldiers forever...... It also teaches the people of the world to enjoy a peaceful and prosperous world. ”
Hearing this, the surrounding soldiers were all excited, and after looking at each other excitedly, they cheered together: "Peace and prosperity!" Long live the prince! ”
Peaceful and prosperous?
What is the age of peace and prosperity?
For hundreds of years, the princes of the world have attacked each other, and the sword soldiers have continued.
For all of us, from the moment we are born, and even for generations to come...... 'war' is innate, and it seems that it will continue forever, and it will not be broken off for future generations.
Numbness!
Hundreds of years of repeated tug-of-war have become the norm for everyone.
On the contrary, it is peace that is a small episode in the long history of wars of countries - in fact, short-lived peaces are often the result of countries accumulating strength and preparing for war.
Peace is to prepare for war, ordinary people have children to become soldiers, food is grown for military food, and the fundamental purpose of all national policies is to better strengthen the country's army...... In short, everything is for the sake of war!
What is the Peaceful Age?
What is Peace?
The 'eternal extinguishing sword soldier' described in the mouth of his own prince...... What exactly is the concept, everyone doesn't seem to understand.
But anyway, everyone was excited!
Xiong Wuliang continued to laugh and said: "Ge Suyi, Ben Hou knows - you are also homesick." ”
"When the world is unified, Benhou will divide a large pasture for you and your people...... You can graze freely on the grassland, and the generations are Chinese fences. ”
"At that time, the powerful Great Chu Empire will provide you with grain, iron tools, and tea...... The powerful Great Chu army will also be the backing of you. ”
"The Ru clan must be loyal to Dachu for generations, and Yongzhen is in the north!"
Ge Suyi was excited-this brainless grassland reckless man had been smashed into a daze by the pie drawn by Xiong Wuliang.
"The last general is willing to be a prince and die for generations!" Gsu Yiang said.
Several of the officers of the Xiao Cavalry Army around him were also members of Ge Suyi's clan, and they all swore an oath: "Die for Da Chu for generations!" Generations of generations to serve the prince and serve the prince! If you violate this oath, may you be punished by the gods! ”
Xiong Wuliang laughed a few times and helped the generals up.
……
Don't you really say-
What Xiong Wuliang just said to Ge Suyi is really not an unscrupulous boss who is irresponsibly drawing cakes.
Since ancient times, the border troubles in the north have been a headache for the Central Plains Dynasty.
It is said that in the Warring States Period, the grassland peoples in the north could only be regarded as petty fights - even the weakest Yan State could hang them to fight.
But at the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu had fought the unified Han Empire.
Regardless of what the Huns took advantage of the chaos - anyway, for thousands of years after that, the nomads in the north were the nightmare of the Central Plains Dynasty.
Even Han Wu and Li Tang ...... When these martial virtues are abundant and their military strength is unprecedentedly strong, they can only guarantee that they will not be overwhelmed by foreigners in a short period of time.
After all, the Central Plains Dynasty will always have a time to decline.
And the steppe tribes, sooner or later, will make a comeback.
How can thousands of years of blood and tears at the border be resolved?
From the perspective of God in later generations, Xiong Wuliang believes that whether it is Han Wu or Li Tang, their practices are wrong!
Simply trying to conquer foreign races by military might, or even trying to exterminate foreign races physically...... In the end, it's impossible.
How vast is the grassland, can foreigners kill all the evil?
No matter how hard you kill, you will break the courage of foreigners...... Time is the medicine that dilutes everything, and after hundreds of years, there will always be a day when the courage is raised again.
To kill the solid edge, kill inexhaustibly - it is not desirable.
If you want to have long-term peace and stability at the border, it is impossible to kill all the foreigners, and it is only a temporary expedient measure to turn the foreigners into China - after all, new foreigners will always appear.
The only way is to win over!
Don't get me wrong-this so-called 'wooing' does not refer to a certain big court, not only sending money, food and women every year, but even dishonoring himself in the name of the emperor.
What Xiong Wuliang wanted was to control a strong enough force to subdue all the later careerists of the grassland...... At the same time, they are loyal to the tribe that bows down to Dachu and is driven by the emperor of the Central Plains!
Wooing foreigners - it refers to letting foreigners be dogs to Da Chu, not letting foreigners be Da Chu's fathers!
So, how does this work?
