Chapter 102: On the Three Kingdoms
"It's hard to say, it depends on the situation, when you look at the first fire, how many people will end up in person, and hiding behind it doesn't count!"
The children of the family, where are the congenital conditions, and they are not suddenly rich, even if the older generation favors a junior, not to mention that there are people on the head of the older generation, and there are a group of brothers around them, under the limitation of resources, the children of the family will enjoy themselves for twenty or thirty years, and after this stage, people will be abolished.
The Li family, as the pillar of the Xungui Group, guards Guangchang, and always bears the pressure of the Jurchens to defend them, pampering is not love, but indulgence, and destruction, the more you have to spoil children, the more things they learn from childhood.
Judging from the current distribution, the Li family brothers failed to enter the border post as they wished, although they are not in the list of the group that the family focuses on cultivating, but if people can come to Tai'an City and enter the three major battalions, the status of the family will not be low.
"Our teacher once said that the battle between great powers is often fought with time and resources, and when they come up, they first meet each other in a short fight, and then enter a state of confrontation, obviously looking for the other party's loopholes, and secretly because of logistical drag!"
After a short hesitation, Li Yannian quickly picked out a comparison, "For example, our dynasty has advantages and disadvantages in releasing infantry because of heavy cavalry, which has advantages and disadvantages, the advantage is that the regular soldiers often ride one horse and two horses, and the elite corps can do one horse and three horses, and carry the baggage with them, so they can get rid of logistics in a short period of time, coupled with the strategy of eating and other places, the thousand-man battalion goes out to fight, and the area of three or four hundred miles around the battlefield is no problem to hold on for a month or two!" ”
"The disadvantage is that within a month or two of going out, the intelligence is not smooth, the results of the thousand-man battalion, and their own injuries, all depend on the general's own ability, the requirements are too high, and it is difficult for ordinary people to control, but the body of the veteran is often unable to bear, every time there is a big battle, basically one or two thousand-man cavalry battalions are ambushed, and the losses are great!"
"Similarly, after returning to the camp in the future, even if the logistics are replenished, the personnel and horses will need to be adjusted in about a month, and the logistics will be replenished and dispatched next time, it may be two or three months later!"
The equation nodded his head to show that he understood what it meant.
Fighting a war is logistics, and if you can't get it in one blow, you will be dragged into the sinkhole of logistics anyway, and then you will have to fight for national strength and consume financial resources, and no one on that side will be left first, either looking for an opportunity for a decisive battle, or giving up the will to fight, but as far as people's hearts are concerned, most of them will have to fight in the end.
"This situation is not only us, the Song Dynasty, but also the Ming Dynasty!"
"The Song Dynasty has money, but the consumption is greater, we rely on horsepower and brains to fight, the war promoted by the Song people is purely by money to smash, the trump card of the Song Dynasty is the shooter battalion, divided into heavy crossbow battalions, light crossbow battalions, rapid-fire battalions, generally with Hunan soldiers as meat shields, before the war rapid-fire battalion moves first, arrows are full of sky, a wave of starting is six consecutive shots, thirty or forty thousand arrows will fly out, followed by heavy crossbows flat shooting, light crossbows waiting for the opportunity to move, a big war down, the consumption of arrows at least four or five hundred thousand!"
Li Yannian smacked his lips, disdain to disdain, but the way of the Song people is really fierce, "If you win, you can take back a little, but if you win ten arrows, you can take back only one or two, and you can maintain it, if you lose, you will smash tens of thousands of taels of silver into the water!" ”
"The key people still dare to smash, there are statistics, more than 100 years ago, the Song people wanted to seize Zaozhuang, Tai'an section of the canal land, cut off the Grand Canal from it, control the canal up and down, and successively formed four 300,000 large corps, and the decisive battle with the Ming Dynasty, more than 6 million arrows were shot in the first battle!"
When Li Yanting said this, his expression was strange, his eyes were envious, and his face looked a little melancholy.
A rapid fire of 300 arrows, more than 100 Wen, a light crossbow arrow 150 Wen, a heavy crossbow strike, more than 300 Wen.
Even if the Song Dynasty had developed craftsmanship and terrifying manufacturing capacity, did the wood of the arrow body not cost money, or did the iron of the arrow be free?
More than six million, and a million silver are gone.
It's not good to have this money to do anything, it's used to smash people, and the party that is smashed has nothing to do.
Touching his chin, he didn't want to say anything, who saw this kind of rich man's practice of throwing money and who had a headache, "The Song people are shooting, and the Ming Dynasty is used in gunpowder?" ”
Hearing this, Li Yannian shook his head like a pug, "The Ming Dynasty magic machine is powerful, but there are many restrictions, first of all, the distance, his magic machine shooting distance is not as fast as the Song people's light crossbow, rapid fire is not faster than the Song people's rapid-fire battalion, in terms of damage, I only need to top a heavy horse in front, when the light horse is tested, the person adds a round shield, and the horse is covered with a scale armor in front of it, and you can cut it in if you resist two rounds!" ”
Syllable!
Li Yanting snapped his hands, "If the Ming army only relies on divine machines to fight, and I fight against the Ming Dynasty, it is like being afraid of mosquitoes, and my hands hurt a little, but once the opportunity is caught, mosquitoes will definitely die!" ”
"The Ming Dynasty is a multi-arm combination routine, but also the most popular program in Kyushu, but the Ming army is well equipped, but the better the equipment, the greater the logistical pressure, plus for the multi-arms combination of routines, there are corresponding examples in history, so compared to the routine, the Ming Dynasty is more of a steady and steady idea, if the Song Dynasty is a hedgehog, then the Ming Dynasty is Xuanwu Pingtui, you can't smash the turtle shell once, then wait to be run over by the turtle shell, and at the same time you have to avoid fighting a positional war with the Ming Dynasty!"
I understand, after listening to these general explanations, the equation is completely understood, the preparation for war of the three countries, the military model, all reached the peak of the cold weapon war, but the direction is different, and the corresponding solution is either broken, or dug out of the long river of history, and no one can help anyone.
Instead, it has moved towards a long-term confrontation, and the military cannot achieve victory, so it will compete for financial resources and who will make mistakes first.
No wonder the Song people have so much patience, and they would rather spend time playing Yin than have a ruthless fight with you with a famous gun.
"Theoretically, you can't fight a quick war, but in reality there will always be opportunities, just like these two Huai riots, isn't everyone's opportunity coming?"
With two Huai points to explode the Kyushu pattern, this hand is not clever, after all, where are the drawbacks, how much pressure is the Ming Dynasty is under now, and then the force to draw back must be doubled and doubled, after this slap is pumped, Mars is not going to splash anywhere.
"The Ming Dynasty, the Song Dynasty ended, we must follow, the three sides will fight, Xuzhou will inevitably be beaten into a pot of porridge, we have the Jurchens behind us, the Ming Dynasty has Chu by its side, the Liao State has always wanted to expand its power to the Guanzhong region, all parties have their own purposes, sir, you ask me how long the war will last, three years to start, ten years to limit!" Li Yannian smiled bitterly.
