Those who care about military strength and Zhuge Liang's recent look
I see that there has been a lively debate among you recently about the issue of military conscription. I can only say a few words.
First of all, if a point of view is raised once, it is very fresh. If it is repeatedly entangled, it is meaningless.
Secondly, before talking about it, it is best to read this book again. Do not skip reading, and do not confuse the contents of other books with this book. Liu Ming never stopped conscription. This article also mentioned it many times
When it comes to military school and recruit training, however, recruiting and training new recruits takes time. Moreover, Liu Ming's elimination of Gongsun Du and several head-to-head encounters with Dong Zhuo also resulted in a serious loss of troops. Just constant replenishment.
How many new soldiers are there? If you add up the soldiers who have died in battle, how many soldiers has Liu Ming recruited? Have you ever calculated?
In addition, the military system in Chapter 376 stipulates the scope and scale of Liu Ming's future military conscription. If you don't understand, please read it again. Don't ignore what I have written and talk to yourself.
Finally, Liu Ming's current military strength can indeed destroy the combined forces of Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo. But what happens after they are destroyed? How many of Liu Ming's troops will be left? You must know that in the era of cold weapons, killing a thousand enemies will only result in self-destruction.
Eight hundred. This is an objective law that cannot be changed. Unless tactics such as water and fire are used in special terrain, some casualties can be reduced. But if it is an siege, casualties cannot be avoided. And the party attacking the city will only suffer casualties.
It will be bigger. At this time, the world's structure is not just Liu Ming, Cao Cao, and Dong Zhuo. Once Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo are eliminated, everything will be over, and you can develop with peace of mind.
As long as Liu Ming attacks Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao, the alliance between Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo will definitely become closer in order to survive. And if other princes do not get Liu Ming's guarantee and are wary of Liu Ming's edge, they will also help the weaker Cao Cao.
and Dong Zhuo. This is an inevitable trend in the development of group power and cannot be changed due to personal likes and dislikes.
And if Liu Ming spent all his money and wiped out Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo, wouldn't other forces covet Youzhou's wealth? Instead, they would be stupid and wait for Liu Ming to regain his strength before destroying them? This is definitely not the case.
realistic.
Even when Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, it was only achieved through the efforts and accumulation of many generations of Qin people, rather than Qin Shihuang starting from scratch. And in history, Cao Cao unified the north from 184 to 208.
Years, then it was roughly completed. How many years did it take Liu Mingcai in the book now?
Moreover, in history, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the population had reached more than 50 million. However, at the stage of the stalemate between the Three Kingdoms, the most populous state, Wei, only had more than 9 million people. And the incomparable benevolence of Liu Bei, under the leadership of the peerless genius Zhuge Liang
With help, the population is only 900,000. This is the benefit of years of fighting.
As for the theory that as long as the monarch is benevolent, even if there is no benefit to joining the army, the common people will enthusiastically join the army. I don’t know what factual basis it has. In history, Zhuge Liang’s benevolence in Shu can be said to be unparalleled. Even if
Many years after Zhuge Liang's death, the people in Shu still remembered Zhuge Liang. However, it was Zhuge Liang who made the people so grateful. History records that Zhuge Liang still had to recruit troops by capturing them. And after recruiting troops, he still had a good life.
Soothing, and knowing the benefits. This way no soldiers ran away.
In addition, having more soldiers is not necessarily a good thing. When the Song Dynasty had more than 4 million soldiers, it was difficult to win many battles. However, the heavy expenditure on troops and horses severely oppressed the central government's finances. And the famous La Zhuang Ding in the national army
, anyone with some knowledge should know that. The man pulled up the horse very quickly. But as for the ending, I don’t need to go into details.
In addition to these, Liu Ming's recruitment was based on merit, which was also a problem that limited the speed of military expansion.
Think about it, when Gongsun Du attacked Youzhou, Liu Ming was not in Youzhou, just Guan Ning and others. In a very short period of time, how many troops were gathered? I have explained it before, so I won’t go into it here.
.
But the question is, is it beneficial to recruit soldiers casually and want everyone?
There is a saying among our people: Good iron cannot be hammered into nails, and good men cannot be soldiers. This is a very terrible concept, but why is there such a concept?
That's because our feudal society has a very serious shortcoming, that is, the family of soldiers and bandits! The common people are not proud of being soldiers, but feel ashamed of them!
But why do people think so?
That's because the imperial courts of the past dynasties have put some prisoners, ruffians, and idle members of society into the army. This is called distribution. How can such low-quality officers and soldiers treat the people well?
What's more, in order to prevent them from escaping privately, the imperial courts often put marks on their faces, which further persecutes their dignity and distorts their hearts. How could they not vent this on innocent people every chance they get?
On the common people?
Now Cao Cao's soldiers have this problem. Does Liu Ming, a man with modern education and military honors, want to accept everyone? After all, high-quality soldiers are always in the minority.
After talking about conscription, let’s talk about Zhuge Liang.
To be honest, it is really pointless to talk about Zhuge Liang now. The great god Zhuge Liang has been mentioned so late in my book. There is not even a trace of him. Now let’s talk about who he should follow. Where do we start talking about it?
Does Zhuge Liang have to appear? History has changed, wouldn't he die in the rebellion? Wouldn't he be among the grassroots of Liu Ming's army now?
There are too many variables. When you think about Zhuge Liang, don't judge it by other books or history. The most important thing is the rationality of Zhuge Liang's appearance in this book.
In addition, although online novels are fast literature, I don't have the ability to write classics. However, I don't want to write some stupid books. And this book I wrote is the Three Kingdoms, the Three Kingdoms in my heart.
, is a description of a group portrait, not just one person. In my opinion, as a Pei Jiao, it should also have its own rational development. Is Pei Jiao doomed to be an idiot? Pei Jiao is doomed not to develop.
?Or should we say that Pei Jiao was favored by God at all times, and had soldiers whenever he wanted, and generals when he wanted, and then was cruelly ravaged to death by the protagonist?
A few words at the end.
1. Liu Ming led countless civil servants and generals, recruited millions of troops, wiped out Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo in one fell swoop, unified the world within two months, and occupied the world within half a year. With only time, place, and events, thirty pieces were completed.
This book. Does anyone read a book like this? At least I don’t. That’s not a book, it’s an outline of a work and a madman’s diary.
Second, Liu Ming, with his five tiger generals and ten great advisers, fought against Cao Cao who had nothing for several years, and was stopped by Liu Bei who was also mentally weak and had nothing for several years. Then what happened to Liu Ming's men?
?Does anyone read such a book? At least I don’t. It’s rubbish and an autobiography of a fool.
The above are some of my little feelings. I hope you will enjoy reading the book and continue to criticize. I just hope that everyone can try their best to find arguments and flaws in this book to help me improve this book. Instead of holding any other
It’s a pointless argument based on the book’s point of view. After all, even the classic Romance of the Three Kingdoms, 60% of it is fabricated. It’s made up with fabricated comments, which is really meaningless.
Of course, if you have any hopes, such as the development and attribution of the characters, you are very welcome to mention them, but I hope you can also put forward their rationality and balance.
