Xie Xuan's bones were screaming, and Xie Xuan's head hurt.
Although he is still in his prime, his energy is not as good as that of Wang Mi and others who are twenty years old.
At this moment, his greatest expectation was to rush to the Jingkou camp immediately, take a shower and change clothes, and lie on the bed to rest comfortably.
However, young people have no such idea.
They looked at me and I looked at you, obviously they had something to say.
"What else do you think?"
In order to start early, Xie Xuan had to take the lead in asking questions.
Behind the generals, the soldiers in Beifu also looked expectantly. They also wanted to go home as soon as possible!
Wife!
child!
And that hot bed!
"General Xie, I still have some ideas about the arrangements for soldiers from Jingkou. I don't know whether to talk about it or not."
Xie Xuan twitched his mouth and showed a look of understanding.
Haha, I know you want to make trouble on this matter.
Xie Xuan suddenly admires himself, isn't it right!
It should be said that Wang Mi's speech raised his admiration for himself to a higher level.
I am indeed a god at predicting things!
"But it doesn't matter."
It's okay not to say it. Just look at the faces of those young generals and you will know that this is their common opinion.
It's just to let Wang Mi, the person with the highest official position, the most honorable status, and of course the most expressive person, speak out.
Sure enough, it’s still the Jingkou Gang!
It won't change anywhere.
Taking advantage of the moment when Wang Mi was still embarrassed to speak, Xie Xuan could clearly see all the expressions on the faces of the young generals present.
They all have the same heart as Wang Mi!
Some people, such as the slippery chief clerk He Mai, kept looking at Wang Mi with an expression of admiration.
"In my humble opinion, soldiers registered in Jingkou can rest in Jingkou for a short period of time, but they cannot be scattered in Jingkou for a long time."
"What does this mean?" Xie Xuan frowned, obviously very confused.
"I don't understand, please explain carefully."
He could probably hear Wang Mi's ultimate goal, which was to prevent all the soldiers from Jingkou from disbanding where they were.
But the problem is, if Wang Mi and the others have this kind of intention, they can just state it clearly, why do they have to beat around the bush.
"My subordinates believe that the soldiers from Jingkou are indeed more capable in combat and have a bold and tough style. However, once they are allowed to rest in the countryside for a long time, their martial arts skills will definitely deteriorate and their physical strength will be greatly reduced."
"It is true that when soldiers return from war, they must be given time to rest so that they can be reunited with their families."
"However, my subordinates believe that this period of time should not be too long."
"Soldiers from Jingkou are different from ordinary refugees. They are often recruited into the army and have a strong willingness to fight."
"After such soldiers have rested for a period of time, wouldn't it be better to call them back into Beifu for daily drills and familiarity with military affairs?"
"Don't wait until a big war is imminent before recruiting soldiers temporarily. Although soldiers are usually trained before the war, after all, it is just to sharpen their weapons before the battle. The effect is not good and it also affects the morale of the soldiers."
"How can this be done?"
"Are you saying that Beifu should always support these Jingkou soldiers?"
Xie Xuan opened his mouth, and Wang Mi finally knew what the problem he had been struggling with was.
money!
to be honest!
It’s all about money!
"Indeed."
Although Wang Mi knew that the Jin Dynasty had no money and that the money allocated by the court was very little, he still could not tell lies.
So far, why has the Jin Dynasty always won less and lost more in the confrontation between the north and the south?
It boils down to one point: the Jin Dynasty’s standing military resources were too few!
The Jin Dynasty was no better than the barbarians on Jiangyou. Their soldiers were always in a state of preparation for war, always ready to mount their horses.
Although they will not support too many soldiers for a long time in name, in fact, they are basically equivalent to long-term support.
Take the former Qin as an example. Although they controlled a vast territory, not all the young and strong men within the territory could be used by them.
Because more people in the territory are Han people, on the one hand, the Han people do not want to be driven by foreigners. Even if they reluctantly go to the battlefield, they will not work hard and are unwilling to fight hard.
On the other hand, the Di people did not trust the Han people either.
Not only do they not trust their loyalty, they also don't trust their combat capabilities. After all, the strongest team in this era is the cavalry.
To be fair, on war horses, the average combat ability of the Han people is definitely no match for the Di people. Since we ourselves are strong, why do we have to go to all the trouble to train the Han people?
There are only a small number of Di people entering the customs. This is not because they do not want to move to the Central Plains, but because their population base is small.
If you can't gather strength and suppress it with force, it should be said that if you scatter the Di people and throw them into the Central Plains, the Di people will soon feel the pleasure of being thrown into the sea.
After the Di people entered the Central Plains, although they gave up their nomadic life and settled down, their basic living unit did not change, and they were still mainly tribal systems.
Just like the Xianbei and Qiang tribes, although they surrendered to Di Qin, their original tribal leaders still led the tribes.
Di people and Xianbei people, their soldiers are always available when called upon, because they basically maintain their combat preparations on weekdays, and their training has not fallen behind.
More importantly, riding horses and hunting is the way of life of the Di people and Xianbei people. Their men are born with a love for this. It is normal for everyone to have a bow and crossbow and hit the target with perfect accuracy.
As long as you can get the heads together (which is quite easy), you can fight on horseback.
But Jin people simply cannot do these things.
In terms of permanent population, there are not many Jin people, but there are too few soldiers capable of fighting.
The Di Qin of Jiangyou could separate farming and warfare. Their fighting relied more on the original tribal soldiers, while farming and providing food was carried out by the Han people under the rule.
The Di people are not good at farming. Once the two sides cooperate with each other, it will appear that Di Qin's troops have stronger combat capabilities and are more active.
But it is obviously impossible for Jin people to do this.
Regardless of whether it is south or north, the main way of life for the vast majority of Han people is farming, sowing in spring and harvesting in autumn, with one reward and one reward.
Even in war, their plunder is limited, not like a tribe, like locusts passing through the border.
Whether to farm or to serve in the army is an important issue that has long troubled the Han-dominated army.
If the army raises too many people, the grain harvest will be affected. Similarly, if there are too many farmers and they are temporarily recruited as soldiers, the combat effectiveness will be terrible.
Although no one explained this dialectical truth thoroughly to Xie Xuan, he was very clear about it.
Long-term training is equivalent to supporting this part of the soldiers so that they can become professional soldiers and no longer participate in agricultural production and labor.
This was absolutely unacceptable to the Jin Dynasty, which was founded on agriculture.
