Advantages, come on, both Liu Bei and Chen Xi know that when the scale of the war expands to hundreds of thousands, how many excellent army commanders can a big boss who can command across theaters be worth? And the question now is just one , there is no such person anymore.
The command of a large army is very rare. It can cross the battlefield and integrate several lines of defense. It is even rarer to dispatch and command from the scale of a large battlefield. Basically, after rising to this level, even the empire will find it difficult to come up with one. scale.
The only people in the Han Dynasty who can really secure this position are Huangfu Song and Han Xin, who cannot appear at all. The remaining ones, even Zhou Yu, who has sufficient qualifications and proven abilities, are reluctant to fight with hundreds of thousands of troops. Cross-regional coordinated command is basically two concepts.
To put it simply, Zhou Yu can basically do the former with his ability. As for the latter, it will take a long time for Zhou Yu to get started, because in the latter it is very likely that when you are fighting in one war zone, other war zones are still in trouble. No message received.
After the affected area reaches 10,000 square kilometers, the transmission of messages during command will become a problem, not to mention that the length of the north and south defense lines on the Ganges River is probably thousands of miles.
In this way, it becomes very important to coordinate the command, judge the changes in the situation from all aspects of intelligence, and then make response.
In ancient military history, the person who accomplished this best was called Li Jing. He could judge the situation perfectly, and then coordinate the entire front line covering thousands of miles to exert its due combat effectiveness.
At this level, to be honest, even if all of the ten corps commanders who do not belong to each other can fight, and each of them is a top warrior, they will definitely be easily crushed to death by a big boss who can coordinate operations in such a vast area. , because the defense zone is so big that if a single legion is lost, you may not receive any news for a short time.
The great thing about the boss is that I can use these time differences to integrate the forces under my command. After hammering one of your legions to death, I will disperse them and pretend that nothing happened. Finally, when you wait for the decisive battle, I will find out. The opponent's main force is complete, and you only have one left...
However, to be honest, there are no big bosses of this level in the Han Dynasty now, and even Han Xin cannot reach it. There is no way that everyone is good at it and not good at it. Han Xin’s military is terrifying, but in cross-regional joint command, cross-region In terms of cooperation in combat, save it, Han Xin can just go there and beat the opponent to death, so what else is there to cooperate with?
In the entire five thousand years, the only one who could complete this kind of coordination to the extreme was Li Jing in the Tang Dynasty. The others were still some distance away from this inhuman level.
Of course, Chen Xi also believes that even if Rahul is strong, he can barely play a rigid cooperation on the front line of more than a thousand miles. If you want to coordinate with each other, save it. No one can do it now. At this time, no matter what Whether they are alive or dead, pull them all out and count them one by one, from Sun Wu and Han Bai to the famous generals of the Han Dynasty.
After all, this era is still about commanding large armies rather than cross-regional coordination. If the former can be considered a World War II tactic, the latter is almost a tactic from the 1970s.
"Who should I send?" Liu Bei was also confused. He didn't think he had a small family before, but now before the film started, he found that there was no one available in his family. There was no one available in China.
"In this case, only you two can go." Cao Cao pointed to Liu Bei and Chen Xi and said, "There used to be Zhou Gongjin, but now, I think if Zhou Gongjin goes to the Ganges River, our navy will Can you survive two months?"
Although Cao Cao's words were a bit excessive, the previous naval battle between the Han army and the Kushan army did remind Liu Bei that his own navy really couldn't defeat the Kushan army. What's even worse is that even if he couldn't defeat the Kushan army, he still had to drag him on. The Guishan Navy lives in Guishan. In this case, if Zhou Yu runs away, maybe it will be like what Cao Cao said, and the navy will be finished within two months.
"I can't go. I went over there. Even if there is a plan to stay here, I'm afraid it won't work. Even if Liu Zichu is transferred back, I'm afraid it won't take long before there will be a funding break, which will affect the entire logistics system. Collapse." Chen Xi said helplessly.
Nowadays, a large part of the steady development of the Han Empire is due to Chen Xi's reliance on the credit system. If Liu Ba is allowed to take over, the credit system may collapse.
"Then you go?" Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei and said, and before Liu Bei could speak, Cao Cao sighed, "You can't move either. At least one person needs to be left in the Central Plains to manage the military affairs of the main body and maintain the stability of the military system. For other people, it would probably take a lot of people to do this thing, but if you say it..." Cao Cao gritted his teeth at this point!
If it is said that maintaining the stability of the military system under normal circumstances requires the cooperation of many prestigious generals, if it were replaced by Liu Bei, it would be nonsense. All the money from the upper levels would be taken away, and I would be able to identify all the middle levels by myself.
Cao Cao has always felt that Liu Bei was cheating. It is because of this that Cao Cao has basically given up on himself. Liu Bei, please take a look. I, Cao Cao, am not afraid of shadows. I am just working for the Han Dynasty. What do you want to say?
"There is no one suitable here." Liu Bei sighed and said, "You go to Central Asia to take over military affairs and suppress the northern nobles. Well, in this case Kong Ming will be free."
"The qualifications are not enough." Jia Xu raised his eyebrows and said what Pang Tong wanted to say, but then Pang Tong realized that the other person was talking about qualifications, not ability.
"It's better than having no one to use it." Liu Bei was also helpless. He still had no qualifications until now.
As expected, there is Rahul on the Kushan side. This guy can securely command a large army. After the scale of the war rises to this level, Rahul's value will increase greatly. Once they are unable to come up with countermeasures, when the time comes, If you don't do well, you will be overthrown by the other party.
Thinking of these things, Liu Bei has nothing to say. At least there is still someone who can use him. It's better to be young than to have no use at all.
"I'm afraid Kong Ming won't be able to move for two or three years." Chen Xi pressed his temples and said, "We have to take over Anxi, which involves the resettlement of millions of people, the suppression of bandits, and the relocation work. All the major families will go out together. This matter The difficulty is similar to what Wenru did over there. At most, Wenru will inevitably need to take action, but the safety here is slightly higher."
"..." Liu Bei had nothing to say. This matter requires at least a civil servant of Xun Yu's level, and Xun Yu's team needs to cooperate with Cao Cao to suppress half of the Kushan land strength, which is still the kind of imperial cemetery. The deceptive environment did not provide Cao Cao with enough advisers. Both Chen Xi and Liu Bei were afraid that Cao Cao would capsize.
Although Liu Bei and Chen Xi were very ruthless in their calculations against Cao Cao, in this situation, it would be more meaningful to kill Guishang first and then say other things.
At least after Kushan was killed, even if Cao Cao caused trouble, his flesh would be rotten in the pot. Now if the capital given to Cao Cao is not enough and Cao Cao capsizes in the imperial cemetery, then the manpower itself is not enough, let alone Enough.
"How about Wen Ruo go to Congling and bring Kong Ming back?" After Liu Bei hesitated, he tentatively gave Cao Cao some advice.
Cheng Yu's eyes lit up when he heard this. However, he thought that Xun Yu was involved in the heavy government affairs at Anxi and couldn't spare his hand. If something unexpected happened to Cao Cao, even if it was a rush, Xun Yu would have to be there. Yu's wisdom and situation judgment are very important to Cao Cao. After all, there are not many Cao Cao's subordinates who are good at strategic situations.
"Then you might as well go to the south." Cao Cao said with a dark face. It sounds good for Xun Yu to go to Congling. The problem is that Congling is a public frontier fortress. What's more, Cao Cao still doesn't understand. Whoever is in charge of Congling will receive no less assistance.
The current situation is that it is clear who wins and everyone has something to eat. If he loses, then maybe a century-old plan needs to be moved. Is it mentally retarded to be able to sit in this position?
"We can't really not send a general." Liu Bei said with a big head. It was a joke to say that he didn't send a general and everyone fought in their own way. Without this, there will definitely be problems when the time comes to coordinate and cooperate in operations. Don't look at Guan Zhang. They have a very good relationship with Zhao. When they go to the battlefield and fight, as long as no one is in charge, there will definitely be cooperation problems due to personality issues.
"Look, what's happening here, we can't even get a commander together." Chen Xi said helplessly, "Why don't we send Zijing to Congling and transfer Kong Ming back."
"Who will do Zijing's job?" Liu Bei glanced at Chen Xi and said, and if you really want to say it, Zhuge Liang is indeed not suitable.
"It's also a problem." Chen Xi touched his chin and said, "Look and see if there are any recommended candidates. There are not many requirements. They just need to be able to coordinate across regions and cooperate within five or six hundred miles. You can recommend anyone at will. Bar."
The whole audience was speechless. There was such a powerful person. He must have risen to prominence during the Yellow Turban War. How could he still be around now?
"How about I go to the south and liberate Li Wenru." Zhong Yao said hesitantly, "My work can be shared between Jiang Gongyan and Pang Shiyuan. I can barely manage the relocation of millions of people and the resettlement and scheduling. As for I am sure of resolving any local conflicts that may arise, so Li Wenru can barely be considered as my personal choice."
Liu Bei and Cao Cao were stunned by Zhong Yao's suggestion. Then the two looked at each other and nodded silently. This is indeed a way. Although Li You is actually not suitable, if Wen Ru is the deputy, he can coordinate and direct the problem. Not much, not to mention that if it lasts for a while, one or two large army commanders should be trained.
