I seek economic hegemony in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 270 The power of the people is the vast ocean!

Wang Zhi's head was hung in front of the camp.

In the evening, the Wei army's front troops slowly retreated, but they were still stationed in Xicheng.

Xia Houru summoned the generals to discuss.

After Xia Houru's analysis, he came to a conclusion: the Shu army has a long-range weapon that can disturb the cavalry, but...

However, the main infantry of our army is stronger than the Shu army in frontal combat.

Although the unknown long-range weapon made Xia Houru feel a little uneasy, Xia Houru still felt that the battle could be fought.

Because he had previously speculated that the elite Han army was in Guanzhong, Li Heng was leading temporary recruits.

It now appears that this conjecture is correct.

Weapons that can harass cavalry from a distance are never the only factor in winning a war, and sometimes they are not even a key factor.

War is very complicated, and it is by no means like what is said in the novel, where someone can use one trick to win the overall situation.

The victory of Liu Bei and Sun Quan in the Battle of Chibi was largely due to chance and luck.

A very typical example is the early Tang Dynasty.

But there is too much luck involved. If the participating commanders cannot understand that a large part of the reason for their victory is luck, they will misjudge their own strength.

On this road to power, even all warmth can be a political means.

After Cao Cao retreated, Liu Bei and Sun Quan fought for Jingzhou. Liu Bei relied on his top generals to stabilize Jiangling, but Ji Han's foundation was actually very weak.

War is a systematic thing.

Many people accuse Sun Quan of being treacherous, but this is not the case.

In other words, the basic quality of the army is the basis for ensuring victory.

This is also the difference between Liu Bang and Liu Bei.

The real combat power of the Han army is actually quite different from that of the Wei army. Today, the former army is still supported by people like Luo Xian who are not afraid of death.

The biggest advantage is that your own combat effectiveness is stronger than the enemy. On this basis, if you set up a good strategy, the probability of winning will be greatly increased.

Most of the famous generals in the early Tang Dynasty were good at commanding battles with large armies and were also good at long-distance raids.

Guan Yu went north to attack Xiangyang, which was a one-step suicide strategy.

The Three Kingdoms!

Everyone is doing it for their own interests. No matter how high-sounding they say, they are all a group of nobles fighting for the world for their own interests.

Of course, returning to the Jingzhou battlefield, Xia Houru's judgment of the situation can be said to be relatively objective.

These two points have very high basic requirements for the military.

Is there any army that is weak but wins in the end?

Of course there are, such as using terrain, using fire attacks, etc.

Viewing issues from the perspective of interests is the most basic political common sense.

Only after realizing this can we compete for the world.

The most typical one is Liu Bei.

Do you really expect others to fully cooperate with you?

Why?

Moreover, the Han army's armor was much better than that of the Wei army. Even so, they were almost defeated.

In this way, Wei Jun does have a huge advantage.

Also in the evening, Li Heng was inspecting the military camp.

Although the Eight Ox Crossbow was used to repel the Wei cavalry, one cannot really expect the Eight Ox Crossbow to wipe out all the tens of thousands of Wei troops, right?

"General, the morale of the camp outside the city seems to be a little low." Lu Zhi said.

"I know, this is normal." Li Heng said, "We conquered Jiangling within seven days because we took advantage of Wu's army to move north and used heavy weapons to succeed quickly. If we think that is the truth of our army, Combat power, this is a big mistake!"

"Most of our troops have never been on the battlefield and are not familiar with the battlefield. When killing enemies, their reactions are slower than those of enemies who have experienced hundreds of battles. This is completely normal!"

"But this does not mean that our army is weaker than the enemy's army. We just lack some experience in killing the enemy on the battlefield. This experience can be quickly acquired in the future to make up for our shortcomings!"

Du Yu and Lu Zhi, who were following him, nodded repeatedly.

They could all feel in Li Heng the calmness that kept his face unchanged despite the collapse of Mount Tai.

Li Heng has a calmness that belies his age.

"The general is very good at nourishing qi." Lu Zhi couldn't help laughing.

"The premise of Qi-nurturing Kung Fu is to see the essence of things clearly, otherwise you will be incompetent and furious." Li Heng pulled the reins and gestured to Ma Yong, "Gather the three armies and build me a half-foot-high platform. I have something to say. ." "Here!"

Li Heng arrived at Luo Xian's camp first.

"General, I am guilty, please punish me, General!"

Only then did Luo Xian take off his armor.

His armor was covered with dense scratches, and even a small piece was broken in some places. If he hadn't been as strong as an ox, he might have been left on the battlefield.

The atmosphere was somewhat solemn.

Li Heng helped Luo Xian up and patted his shoulder: "You have done a good job, and many soldiers in the former army have also done a good job."

"But the general failed to defeat the Wei army!"

"Don't deny yourself because of one or two bad things!" Li Heng said with sharp eyes and a loud voice, "Those who are going to achieve great things must not be impatient. Today's battle has just begun!"

After saying that, Li Heng glanced around and stopped at everyone he saw.

Among them were generals, military officials, guards, and soldiers.

There are also many Jiangling locals newly recruited into the army, who bear the responsibility of transportation.

After looking around for a week, Li Heng climbed to the high platform built by Ma Yong.

"Where's the paper?" Li Heng gestured.

Ma Yong immediately folded it and handed it to Li Heng.

This is a primitive amplifier.

"Those of you who are locals in Gangneung, raise your hands!"

The sound spread through the crowd.

The crowd started talking quickly, and then some people raised their hands.

"It has been less than a month since Master Wang arrived in Gangneung. I know that you have been drafted into the army. Some of you have complaints. You want to go home to be with your wives and children. You want to sleep well so that you can see the sun when you wake up tomorrow morning." , you don’t ask for much, just have enough to eat!”

The expressions of those who raised their hands changed slightly.

"Your request is to have enough food for you, so that your children can also have enough food! Our purpose here is also to let you have enough food, so that your children have enough food!"

"So, I gave you the fields I took from the big family!"

"Now that you have a field, you will farm it well in the future and give your children more food to eat!"

"But I want to say that I not only want to let your children eat, but also let them study. Jingzhou University has been set up, and some of your children have already entered school! They can also read and write!"

"Is this all good?"

Li Heng looked around.

A man in his thirties said: "Okay! These are benevolent policies!"

"Yes, these are benevolent policies! But now there are two groups of enemies who want to destroy the benevolent policies established by the imperial court in Jingzhou!"

Speaking of this, Li Heng's voice became louder, more resonant, and extremely penetrating.

"You used to work hard in the fields, could you have enough to eat?"

No one answered.

"Can you?"

"No!" Another person said angrily, "We work hard every day and turn in most of the food. We can only live hand to mouth and often starve!"

"Then who made you become like this?" Li Heng asked loudly.

No one answered his question now.

"It's Wu and Wei thieves! They have now sent out a large army to attack the royal master and take back the fields assigned to you by the imperial court! Will you give it to me?"

"No! I won't give it! That's our field!"

In an instant, dozens of people shouted at the same time.
