Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1530 Colonial Policy
Fang Jun did not show the drawings and books to Su Dingfang immediately, but said in a deep voice: "Fan and his son have long been dissatisfied with Tang's garrison in Da Nang, but at that time the Chenla army drove straight to Sangapura Under the city, most of Lin Yiguo's elite troops were annihilated, so they had to suffer a big loss by pinching their noses. But this father and son Jun are not idle people, especially Fan Zhenlong, who is ambitious and ambitious, how can he be willing to give my Tang Dynasty gradually Cannibalize and remain indifferent? Therefore, we must take strict precautions against it to prevent it from inciting the natives of Linyi to launch riots and harm our merchants in the Tang Dynasty.

Fang Jun is very familiar with this kind of thing. In history, the Han people took root in Nanyang countries. With their wisdom and hard work, they occupied most of the social wealth, which made the local regime extremely jealous. All the wealth accumulated by the Han people for generations was plundered.

This method of "shearing sheep" can not only grab a lot of wealth quickly, but also greatly reduce the population of the Han people in a short period of time. Repeatedly, the tragedy is always accompanied by those Han people who travel across the ocean to create wealth through hard work...

Su Dingfang frowned and said: "If you only get rid of the Fan family, it will be effortless, and you will turn your palms on you. But Linyi Kingdom is not as vast as the Tang Dynasty, and it is also a big country in Southeast Asia. If you want to occupy it, The difficulty is too great, just the forces loyal to the Linyi royal family in various places are enough to make us fall into the mud, and we will lose our ground."

Not to mention the mere Linyi country, even if the entire Nanyang countries unite, how can they resist the advance of the Han people?

In the previous dynasties, the armies of the Han people often tortured those aboriginal monkeys to death, and it was easy to conquer the kingdoms.However, it is easy to destroy the country, but it is too difficult to defend the land. Linyi country is far away from the middle land, and the transportation is not smooth. Even if there is a naval fleet that dominates the world today, it is impossible to supplement the army to occupy the entire territory of Linyi.

Once local forces from all over the country in Linyi swarmed up, the Han army would be overwhelmed with one another, unless hundreds of thousands of troops were sent to occupy various places... But how could it be possible to send hundreds of thousands of troops to Linyi?

If so many troops are sent, the country will probably be in chaos...

As a result, when the Han army arrived, the aborigines fled in anticipation, and when the Han captured the city, the aborigines harassed and fought again, giving full play to the essence of an alternative guerrilla warfare...

Therefore, even at the peak of the Central Plains Dynasty, the surrounding countries were just listed as vassals, and they belonged to the monarchs and ministers in name, but in fact there was nothing they could do about them.

Fang Jun snorted, pointed at Su Dingfang, and Dun Dun taught: "You need to be more flexible. What good is it if we occupy Linyi Kingdom? It's just a barbaric land. Most of the places are too desolate and undeveloped. Don’t give it to us for nothing. It’s impossible for Fan’s royal family to have only Fan Zhenlong and his son, right? Kill them, choose a person with royal blood to inherit the throne, and then choose a local force to support him, be it a minister or a bandit, ask for money Give money and equipment, let them fight their own people, and if anyone dares to disobey our order, kill him and replace him with another one. In short, one principle must be maintained, that is, there are endless wars and wars within the borders of Linyi Kingdom. Let them all be tightly united around Datang, otherwise they will be killed by the other party, do you think he will be obedient?"

"hiss……"

Su Dingfang breathed a sigh of relief when he came here, staring at the calm Fang Jun in front of him, a chill rose in his heart.

It's so wicked...

In this way, the people of Linyi Kingdom will suffer unspeakably, and the country will never have peace!

Fang Jun sighed, with a compassionate expression: "As long as it is implemented in this way, Linyi Kingdom is afraid that the war will continue. In ten or eight years, the local aborigines will almost die. By that time, the entire Linyi Kingdom In the world of the Han people, how can there be any need to send troops to garrison everywhere?"

The reason why the tone is embarrassing is because this method was the method used by European and American powers to deal with China at the beginning of the Republic of China. Warlords from all over the country attacked each other. The traitor who is afraid of the future doesn't even bat an eyelid...

Su Dingfang is a general. On the battlefield, the two armies compete for supremacy. This is his strong point, but when it comes to a country's internal affairs, he doesn't understand at all.

Now Fang Jun's method of supporting the puppet has opened his eyes, and he is eager to try while feeling chills, nodded and said: "Okay, as long as Fan and his son have different ideas, the general will immediately act according to Master Hou's plan, no matter what. , Lin Yiguo will also be in the hands of Datang."

Fang Jun nodded in satisfaction.

Since you are a soldier, you should only have victory or defeat in your heart, and you should have no mercy.In the face of aliens defending their own interests, the benevolence of a woman is the most stupid act...

Seeing that Su Dingfang's eyes never left the blueprints and books under his hands, Fang Jun smiled, pushed them lightly on the table, pushed them in front of Su Dingfang, pointed to the book, and said, "This is the book." A book I wrote in my spare time is called "Theory of Sea Power". Discuss carefully."

Su Dingfang looked at this thick book and was speechless for a moment...

It is a big deal to write a book about this idea!

How many world-famous Confucianists spent their entire lives compiling their insights and achievements into a book, and immediately became a figure admired by the world, but the dude in front of him said that he wrote a book "in his spare time"...

Su Dingfang is a martial artist, he knows a lot of characters and has read a lot of books, but in his life, he is most envious of those great scholars who are well-educated. At this moment, he said with fear and fear: "Your Majesty, the last general...how can you dare to fight against me?" Master Hou pointing fingers at the book? You must read it as hard as you can, and if there is anything you don’t understand, I hope Master Hou will not hesitate to teach you.”

Fang Jun didn't know what to say.

His words were not modest. He had read the book "On Sea Power" in his previous life, but how long ago was that?What's more, even if you have read it, it is just a matter of interest, and you can roughly remember the viewpoints and ideas in the book, but how can you remember too much detail?
What's more, "On Sea Power" was written at the end of the nineteenth century, when the industrial revolution in Western countries had already been completed, which was completely different from the current Tang Dynasty. Many places in it needed to be changed and deleted, and there were inevitably omissions.

However, Su Dingfang's reaction was not surprising to him, the aura of writing a book about this idea was too dazzling...

"After this book is edited, it will become the textbook of the Naval Academy. At that time, all officers above the rank of lieutenant in the Navy will go to the Naval Academy to study in batches. They will not only learn the tactics and experience of naval warfare, but also learn naval warfare strategic significance for the country."

In fact, not only the sailors, but also the cavalry and infantry, it is not enough to just have the skills of fighting, and it is necessary to teach those officers the meaning of war.

Know how to fight, but also know why to fight, that is the real modern army!

Su Dingfang took it seriously: "Master Hou is very worried."

Not to mention anything else, just say that the navy is now equipped with more and more artillery, including solid bullets, flowering bullets, incendiary bombs, grape bullets... More and more new equipment means more and more artillery The new style of warfare, following the conventional naval battle experience, has long been unable to exert the combat power of the navy.

Fang Jun pushed the thick stack of blueprints in front of Su Ding again, and said: "This is a warship designed by a certain person, you take this blueprint back to Huating Town, and discuss it carefully with the shipwrights at the Jiangnan Shipyard. How much manpower and material resources are spent to build one."

Su Dingfang quickly responded, in fact, the "scissor" warships used by the navy today were made by Fang Jun. Looking at the design of warships in the Tang Dynasty, no one can surpass Fang Jun. Now Fang Jun Who dares to underestimate the precious and important design of a new type of warship?

As Su Ding replied, he flipped through the drawing, and was stunned by the data of the warship marked on the second page after the title page...

The total length is 76 meters, the waterline length is 46 meters, the keel length is 39 meters, the ship's width is 14.7 meters, the draft is 6.3 meters, the displacement is 1600 tons, 100 artillery pieces, and the crew is 780 people...

Su Dingfang naturally knew that the units of measurement in Jiangnan Shipyard were different from those in other parts of Datang, and he was no stranger to units like "meter" and "ton".

Looking at this set of data, he was almost frightened to death. He looked up at Fang Jun and his eyes almost popped out. Whether it can be made, even if it is made, I am afraid that if it is put into the water, it will have to... what?"

Words such as "wreck" and "overturned ship" are extremely taboo among people who go to sea to make a living. No matter fishermen, sea merchants, or sailors, it is the same. On the unpredictable sea, there is a little wind and waves The sea is the end of a narrow escape, and any taboo words are afraid of being heard by the "Sea God". Even in the later generations with advanced technology, people who live by the sea still maintain this tradition.

So Su Dingfang bit his tongue in time and didn't say any bad words.

But the meaning is very obvious...

Lord Hou, stop making trouble, can you?

Where is this ship?
It is clearly a water fort...
