[Group Wearing Song Dynasty] The Glory of the Sky

When Qian Fan opened the door, Liu Xun was sitting next to the map, looking at the battle marks along the southeast coast.

"Have you heard?" Qian Fan closed the door casually, looked down at the document he had prepared, and asked again, "What do you think?"

Liu Xun raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, and said slowly: "At the beginning, I decided to be a top player in order to survive the basic defense period, not to mention that when the computer was simulating, I didn't expect these unexpected elements of Yun Qi and now. "

"Well, so it will change with time." Qian Fan put down the document and pointed to the location of Cangzhou and Yingzhou: "Now these two places can't be attacked for a long time, but the central and western regions have basically been eaten away by Song Dynasty, and the Jin Kingdom as a whole is constantly changing. Back off to the north."

On this map, there are two Tokyos and two capitals of the Kingdom of Jin.

The first Tokyo was Kaifeng in later generations, which was also the capital of the original Song Dynasty.

And the second Tokyo is where Wan Yanyong rebelled in his nest and stayed behind in Tokyo while Wan Yanyong was marching south. The location is located in Liaoyang in later generations.

The initial capital of the Kingdom of Jin was set at Huining Mansion in Shangjing, that is, Harbin City, Heilongjiang.

After Wan Yanliang slayed the king and came to power, due to the inconvenience of transportation and his ambition to invade the Song Dynasty in the south, he directly moved the capital to Daxing Mansion, positioning it as the central capital, which is the Beijing of later generations.

To make strategic considerations, one must see clearly what Song State wants and what Jin State is guarding.

The Song State killed from the two wings of the central part, wanting thousands of acres of fertile land and a thousand-year-old city. The central part of the entire continent has now been swallowed up, and the two countries are divided between Yingzhou and Daizhou.

The Kingdom of Jin retreated extremely quickly, and did not love to fight at all—under such circumstances, the densely populated southern territory was like an abscess that could break out at any time. As long as the famine broke out again, it would be too late to suppress it.

But even if the state of song invaded all the way to the central capital, the territory it occupied was only just equal to that of the state of jin.

The reason is very simple - the Kingdom of Jin owns the entire Northern Continent, as far as the Arctic Circle. If the Kret tribe is unified in the future, it may still become the overlord of the Central Plains.

The main reason for the inability of Jin to teach the south is cultural and ethnic differences. Although it can teach customs, it cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

"I have been paying attention to Song's offensive route," Liu Xi said slowly while sitting in front of the map: "They are testing each other's bottom line, and they are also rebalancing their respective countries' resources."

The Song Kingdom has been fighting for more than a year now, and almost all the land in the central part of the country that it wants except the Tokyo area has been snatched back, so the treasury has also been filled a lot. , modified for various purposes.

But Jin Guo pushed very cautiously, only guarding the east and the whole north.

Jurchen was originally a subject of the Liao Kingdom.

Fifty years ago, after Wan Yanmin unified the Jurchen tribes, he sent troops to fight against the Liao Dynasty. It took ten years to destroy the Liao Dynasty, and another two years to destroy the Northern Song Dynasty. The whole nation was more accustomed to fishing and hunting than farming.

Even if the entire southern region is handed over to them, it may be difficult to be scientifically managed, but it will be used as a resource reserve for plundering food, wealth and population.

Now the Kingdom of Jin is trying its best to make friends with the Kret tribe of Mongolia in order to protect itself. The two countries jointly erected a barrier across the west and east in the north, making it clear that they will fight to the end.

Keeping the entire north can not only relieve the population pressure due to the large area and sparse population, but also throw the difficult-to-handle central and southern regions directly back to the Song Dynasty, allowing them to feed the large group of refugees who are not easy to get along with, and can re-strengthen the development of the northern pastures , to raise more powerful war horses.

Although Wan Yanyong did not have the opportunity and was unwilling to study in Yangzhou, he could clearly see a problem.

Although this iron thorn chariot is powerful, it is rare and difficult to produce.

Otherwise, according to Song Guo's rich temperament, this thing should be fully popularized.

Then, the only thing they have to be afraid of is that Lin Guo, whose cards have never been bright, joins the battle.

"And we joined the battle—for what?" Liu Xi subconsciously said, "For the entire Northeast territory?"

"We don't need to wipe out the entire Kingdom of Jin. The northern land is too far away, and there is no need to go to the Arctic Circle to see the aurora." Qian Fan motioned him to look at the coastal area of ​​Zhongdu and the entire land in the Northeast: "Cai Yu Xiao and the people under me have gone to inspect the resources a year ago, and there is a large piece of fertile black soil that can be used for greenhouse farming. If it is done properly, the agricultural output value may be stronger than that of Jiangnan."

"Also," his voice paused slightly, and he said again: "When they secretly went to investigate, they vaguely found oil and gas resources in the north of the old capital, and the reserves could not be determined specifically."

Liu Xi was stunned for a moment, and immediately said: "Let's not talk about whether the Song Kingdom can conquer the Northeast, if this piece of resources is discovered and exploited by those who have different intentions from Linguo..."

It will trigger a more troublesome chain reaction.

Now the core resources of the entire Linguo, such as oil, pig iron, rare earth, etc., are all blocked by the Linguo government.

If someone wants to lead the entire group to betray the neighboring country, they must independently solve the energy supply problem and industrial development problem——

The court of the Song Dynasty would not plan the development process of industry and commerce as clearly as the Senate. After all, they were trapped in a thousand years ago and refused to open their eyes. Even gods could not save them.

But if there are a lot of oil and gas resources in the Northeast, it will be like a time bomb buried there.

Once people with opposing forces start to take advantage of this entire area of ​​resources, the gap will narrow at an ever-increasing rate.

These things might not happen until decades later, but if we make a wrong move now, no one can guarantee whether Linguo will still exist ten years from now.

"Wait," Liu Xi suddenly raised his hand and said, "I understand what you said, but did Xin Qiji's proposal coincide with your idea?"

Qian Fan was still concentrating on looking at the various marks on the map, he just touched his chin and shook his head.

"He's thinking in the other direction, which is also very important."

"Another one? In order to prevent confrontation between the two countries in the future, Linguo must develop on a larger scale?"

"No," Qian Fan turned around and recalled: "What he said on the bill at the time was that in order to promote the development of science and technology, higher-level experimental sites and blasting sites should be given, and a larger land area should be given. To establish a complete heavy industry system."

"What does he mean—" Liu Zi frowned and said, "Launch a satellite?"

"It's not just satellites." Qian Fan knew that he didn't have much time to read the details of dozens of pages of documents, so he simply explained: "At the beginning, we trapped the whole country in Yangzhou City because we thought that the Jin and Song Dynasties would Natural evolution confrontation - but Yun Qi completely disrupted all our expectations."

It was she who sowed dissension between the Jin and Song Dynasties. In order to make the Song Kingdom completely opposed to the Lin Kingdom at the end, she devoted herself to accelerating the decline of the Jin Kingdom and the rise of the Song Kingdom, which further triggered the early start of the Jin-Song War.

"The situation is changing too fast now, and we can no longer use the old way of thinking to think about problems," Qian Fan sighed and said, "But how are Yun Qi and Hu Pingyu connected? I was not mentally prepared at all, and I wanted to live a peaceful life.”

Liu Xi was silent for a few seconds, then slowly said, "I went to see her."

"Really?" Qian Fan frowned and said, "Didn't you kill her?"

"Can killing her stop the progress of history?" Liu Xi asked back: "This matter is easy to deduce. If we kill her now, or Song Guo directly uses this as an excuse to directly instigate against the restless business class in Linguo. Civil strife or even war, or the state of Song loses the intellectual brain it relies on, and begins to actively learn the technology of Linguo at a faster speed——Which of these two endings do you think is better?"

"I'm a little confused," Qian Fan found a chair and sat down, thinking hard: "At the beginning, she collude with the entire Shi Guo government circle and wanted to completely destroy all stakeholders participating in the ZETA project, but because of Long Hui's The operation error caused the whole town to change, so she went to the Kingdom of Jin desperately, and began to think of ways to get revenge on the Long family and even our Jiangyin people."

"But, Long Hui is already dead? What else can she do now?"

Long Hui's death was equivalent to putting an empty pot on the raging fire.

There is not even water that can be used to boil it to a boil. The situation is so incomprehensible.

"The anger and resentment in her heart have been silent for more than ten years." Liu Xun said lightly: "The current situation is that whether she wants to or not, she has been put on the cusp of the business world. , there is no possibility of coming down."

"What do you mean?" Qian Fan didn't expect that things would be connected in this way, and his expression was a little dazed: "No, aren't we talking about the political incident behind it? How did it get involved with the business world?"

Liu Xi lay back slightly, rubbed his slightly sore neck, and explained the ins and outs to him.

Yunqi herself is self-made. She has no military power or political background in the Kingdom of Jin. If she wants to do things, she can only start with business operations.

Because of this, she used the development of the sugar industry to disrupt the rhythm of grain fields in several provinces, and then took advantage of Song State's unruly feelings towards Jin State to buy rock sugar, which made the beet planting industry start to develop crazily, and was stuck in the winter cold food shortage At that time, he absconded and went to Song State, and at the same time, Song State directly declared war on Jin State.

In this matter, all she can use is business acumen and industry knowledge. She has no way to conquer states and counties by force, nor can she use contacts to gain benefits between the Jin and Song Dynasties.

With the development of the matter to the present, no matter whether Long Hui died or not, she would definitely not be able to return to Yangzhou.

"She doesn't return to Linguo, but at the same time, she accumulated a lot of wealth by relying on these things, so she used it to invest in Song Dynasty, which further promoted the development of Hexuanchang Industrial Cooperation Zone?" When Qian Fan realized it, he directly Swearing: "So everything fits together?"

"Whether she and Hu Pingyu are careerists or not, as long as they have the urge to expand and develop, they must overcome the last layer of shackles." Liu Xi poured Qian Fan a cup of coffee, and said slowly: "Do you think, How long can she live if she retires and disappears?"

The moment Qian Fan caught the cup, he suddenly understood everything.

Over the past six years, many people have been unable to choose their circumstances and future.

Yun Qi, as a person with identities in all three kingdoms, Jin, Song and Lin, if he wants to retire and seek an anonymous and peaceful life, his existence will inevitably be obliterated by any of the three kingdoms.

Because she participated in things and knew too many inside stories.

She is now bundling the interests of so many people with herself, promoting the development of multiple huge business plans, and even managing the wealth of a high-ranking high-ranking official. She has become the God of Wealth that everyone admires, just to survive.

After all this, after all visions and obsessions have come to naught,

I don't know if it was Liu Xi's words that moved her, or there are other unknown obsessions.

She wants to live.

Was the collaboration between her and Hu Pingyu accidental or inevitable?

What will eventually arise from the stalemate and mutual control between business and government?

"Call Xin Qiji to the C01 conference hall." Liu Xun murmured, "There are also people from the military department."

"We're going to talk about the expedition to the Northeast."

-

Xin Qiji himself was born in Shandong, within the territory of the Kingdom of Jin. He traveled to many places in the Kingdom of Jin when he was young, and he is relatively clear about the details of geography and various things in the Kingdom of Jin.

He is familiar with the art of war, and also understands the military strength between Lin and Song Dynasties, so he gave such a result in the proposal——

The current State of Song did not completely conquer the northern half of the State of Jin.

In the beginning, the geographical area of ​​the Southern Song Dynasty was about one-fourth that of the Kingdom of Jin. Now that the Jin-Song War was in a stalemate, the area of ​​the Song Dynasty had expanded to nearly three-sevenths of the size of the Jin Kingdom, but it was also reluctant to settle.

If you want to fight all the way to Zhongdu, you have to try your best to attack the city in an environment surrounded by mountains.

The Song Dynasty had developed in a safe corner of the south for decades, and the soldiers were more accustomed to the water and soil in the south. The more they went north, the more they were afraid of the cold. In winter, their combat power might be reduced even more.

If it is to defend the central and western areas, it is obviously quite cost-effective.

The territory of the Kingdom of Jin now looks like an upside-down concave shape. The Linhai area to the east has not been completely captured, but the middle has been cleaned up.

For more than a year, the Central Capital and its surrounding areas have been unable to attack for a long time. For this reason, the morale of the court gradually began to lose, and some people even proposed to sign the peace treaty handed over by Wan Yanyong.

If Linguo wants to capture the sub-core area of ​​Jinguo, it will start from Yizhou, first take away Jizhou and Qingzhou, which are in a semi-vacuum state, and then go all the way north to capture Cangzhou and Jizhou, and then go straight to Zhongdu.

In order to get rid of the population dilemma, the Kingdom of Jin gave up most of the central part, avoiding the loss of troops due to direct confrontation with the conflict.

However, the eastern coastal area is an alluvial plain, because the climate is suitable for the fertile land, obviously the food production is sufficient and other products are also quite rich.

They stick to the eastern fringe, not only wanting to keep the last agricultural area, but also wanting to use it as a starting point for plundering the Central Plains again in the future.

The relevant strategic analysis chart was projected on the big screen, and there were not many people in the conference hall.

Three or four high-level officers of the military department—all Qian Fan's most trusted subordinates in the former police station, have now become ministers of such and such or generals of such and such.

A few second- and third-tier officials also attended the meeting. Deputy Head of State Li was still presiding over the planning of the new industrial zone and the acceptance of the results of the agricultural zone in Chuzhou. Bailu took time out of his busy schedule to listen to the military meeting.

The new official who caused a lot of discussion also came to the conference hall.

He was wearing a navy blue uniform with a serious and calm expression.

Qian Fan was not interested in chatting with acquaintances, and directly marked on the map with an electronic remote control pen, explaining a more detailed analysis of the battle situation.

The purpose of conquering the eastern coastal areas is to expand more resources and establish coastal or unmanned experimental areas.

Maybe in another ten or twenty years, they will be able to launch satellites into the universe of this parallel world.

"One of the differences between modern wars and ancient wars lies in time control." Qian Fan has completely returned to his military status in the past few years, with a serious and firm tone: "March in a hurry, attack at a fixed point and capture the target. If you want to start a war, you must Be the master of the rhythm."

They now have a full set of land-based anti-thermal weapons. In terms of bombardment and deterrence capabilities, they already have epoch-making crushing capabilities.

Although this kind of military strike intensity cannot solve the internal strife caused by the backlash of domestic industrial and commercial development, after all, if the bombardment goes on, they will die together, but it is quite terrifying in terms of attacking foreign enemies.

It took only two years for the Kingdom of Jin to conquer the entire Northern Song Dynasty, which is probably a very worthwhile study in the history of ancient wars.

But in modern warfare, the battle situation cannot be delayed, and the war cannot be delayed.

A conquering war may only take a few hours to a few days from the beginning to the end. This is the result of the joint blooming of multiple scientific achievements.

Qian Fan explained the war concept and related predictions, and then began to talk about the route and speed at which weapons such as gun barrels weighing several tons should be transported out.

The warning lights in the distance suddenly lit up.

"...Member Xin?" He paused, raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you trying to say something about Jin Guo's strategic information?"

"No," Xin Qiji stood up slowly, and said in a deep voice, "There is a more convenient way to capture the east for a few weeks."

"Due to the limitations of technology, their air-to-air capability is about zero, and even stone throwing and archery are limited by the wind."

His voice was stagnant and powerful, not at all like a newcomer who had just set foot in this field.

"I think that the development and use of single-man aircraft and drones can make this war achieve the highest benefit ratio."

Liu Xi glanced at the three words aircraft written on his draft paper, raised his eyebrows and laughed.
