Judging from the news received before, maybe after the Yuezhi group hacked to death the Brahmin executives and released the backbone elite army in the north of the Yuezhi, will the main force of the Han Dynasty in the Ganges have an advantage? question.
In this case, a group of people present silently pushed the Yuan family aside and decided to concentrate the remaining troops to attack Kushan. The Yuan family would be supported by those who had previously supported it. General Huangfu must be able to resist it. Live, probably, maybe...
After all, at this point, the national strategy of the Han Dynasty is clearly to kill Kushan as soon as possible, and Kushan's strategy is to delay the period of weakness as much as possible. Although compared to the time when they were holding each other back, the current Kushan Maybe even stronger.
However, the war potential of the Dayue clan, which was unable to integrate the south in a short period of time, actually declined sharply. If the Han Dynasty did not fight desperately at this time and directly defeated the Kushans, then after a few years, Vesutiva I If Kuishang is integrated as a whole, even if there are hidden dangers, the combat effectiveness will be far greater than it is now.
This is why Cao Cao and others will directly judge that once they use their main force to fight against Rome at this time, not to mention whether they can defeat Rome, even if they defeat it, China's best development period in thousands of years will be affected by this. Come to an end.
There is no way. Once the Kushans are completely integrated, even if they are weaker than the Han Dynasty, relying on natural dangers and exaggerated national power, fighting on the mainland will be enough to drag the Han Dynasty into the quagmire. At that time, the outcome will be inevitable. It’s up to the Han Dynasty.
After Cao Cao set the tone with one sentence, everyone naturally avoided the Yuan family. They can't save it now, and they can't save it. The support they gave before was already at the maximum level. If it continues to expand, it is very likely that it will It became a war that should not have started at this time and was also very inappropriate.
After all, the distance between Rome and the Han Dynasty is too far. At this level, let alone life and death, it is not easy for both sides to compete. For the Yuan family, the Han Dynasty and Rome have to fight for a long time. A war that consumes one's own potential.
To be honest, even if Chen Xi had an imperialistic mindset, he wouldn't be able to do it.
"So our mission now is to concentrate all our combat power to fight the Kushans and destroy the Kushans as quickly as possible." Liu Bei said sadly, thinking that the Yuan family had become so mixed that they needed to look at the opponent's thoughts to survive. , Liu Bei also had to feel embarrassed.
After all, they are all from the Chinese lineage, and they also identify with the Xia Dynasty. From the perspective of blood culture, everyone is the descendant of Yan and Huang. Therefore, when it comes to opening up and expanding the territory, Liu Bei has always tried his best to recognize the identity of everyone. It's a pity that things have developed to this point, and Liu Bei has no good solution. After all, he is not strong enough. The essence between countries is still a contest of power.
"Yes, we must concentrate more than 80% of our country's strength to destroy Kushan within five to ten years." Chen Xi said with a long sigh, "As much as possible, although we have the advantage, but against this level of No one is absolutely sure of the opponent, so those who have the ability should use it as much as possible, for themselves, for the country, and for future generations."
Cao Cao and others did not speak when they heard this. The previous decisive battle between Rome and Parthia gave them a wake-up call, and the subsequent urgent report from Kushan also let this group of people know what kind of opponent they were facing.
"Get ready. Let's go when it's time to go in June. The next war may determine our destiny for the next thousand years. If we win, we will be able to easily cope with any challenge in the next thousand years. If we lose, , we may need to go back and reincarnate again in the Central Plains." Liu Bei said with an excited expression.
If they were just stuck in the Central Plains all their lives and had no direction to expand, they would not be like this. But if one day they fight out, but fail again, and thus stifle their best expansion opportunity in thousands of years, then all contemporary people They won't let themselves go.
Liu Bei didn't say anything else. Most of the civil and military officials left the Political Yuan soon after with their thoughts on their minds. After all, what happened before made them know clearly what they were about to face. They were no longer the kind of people in the country who only had one state. They are not just small local warlords and local emperors, but a real empire, the kind of empire that has no shortage of wisdom, strength, and capital.
Therefore, once a full-scale war breaks out, the shirt will be stained with blood, and people will inevitably die on the battlefield. More importantly, when history has reached this point, everyone understands that the next ten years will be a turning point in the millennium and become China's escape. The cyclical law of dynasties that starts and starts again will not cause any big problems for at least the next thousand years. If it fails, it will be empty talk.
This heavy responsibility has clearly appeared on everyone's shoulders at this moment. Even Zhang Fei, a carefree general, feels a lot more solemn at this time. There is no way, when a person clearly feels his own historical responsibility. , when you make a choice, you will inevitably need to be responsible for history and future generations.
When one's own death not only affects oneself, but also affects the country and the nation, even an irritable person will calm down when needed.
Chen Xi knocked on the table and motioned for Xun to help control him. He had something to do and he went out. Xun silently glanced at Chen Xi without saying anything, then Chen Xi closed the official document and chased him out.
“Mr.
"Zichuan, what's the matter? Is there anything else?" Liu Bei asked in confusion. After all, he had been with Chen Xi for a long time, and Liu Bei also knew how to tell Chen Xi's current state of mind from Chen Xi's face, and it was obvious that Chen Xi was now There is something on my mind.
"Well, there are indeed some things." Chen Xi sighed and said, "Mr. Xuande, are we taking too big a step, or advancing too fast? If this continues, our domestic operations will be unable to meet our expectations. Due to the situation, manpower has begun to be lacking.”
"There is nothing we can do about this." Liu Bei was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he thought for a moment and then slowly said, "When the time comes to rest, we can't do nothing, so it's impossible not to invest people there. , the base in Congling is also the frontier fortress that we must build when we go out, and the Yuan family also has to sit in the west."
"But this kind of operation is already struggling. It is difficult for us to continue to support it. Speaking of it, it is no longer just the top management that is lacking, but the middle management is also beginning to be vacant." Chen Xi sighed. He said in a tone, "When Cao Sikong leaves, we are afraid that hundreds of middle-level positions will be vacant."
"Even if this is the case, we can't stop." Liu Bei said without hesitation after hearing this, "We have reached this point, our people, and others, as long as they are still sitting in this position, they all know that next is Huaxia A huge change in the past millennium will lead to even more exaggerated results than when Shang Yang entered the Qin Dynasty. It is impossible for us to stop."
"I also know that we can't stop. If we stop now, there will be no difference between us and failure. What I mean is that our internal self-blood production capacity is no longer enough. How many officials are needed for a country with almost 20 million square kilometers? To govern, how many grassroots officials are needed?" Chen Xi sighed and said, this country is too big.
"Let's start the course." Liu Bei said calmly, "At this level, don't worry about moral issues. We will settle the accounts later. Recruit people first. All the hundreds of positions that Cao Mengde took away will be taken out. Whoever is needed, we will What kind of professional question is there?"
"..." Chen Xi's face darkened. Liu Bei was probably the craziest high-ranking official in history who offered up two thousand shi of official positions as optional positions.
"It's too radical, and opening up a subject to get a degree is not the best way. You should be able to see the drawbacks. The purpose of this is to guide people to learn, but it is very likely to bias the social atmosphere." Chen Xi He shook his head and said.
"Anyway, it's a plan. Use it first when there is no other way. After a while, you can get through this period and then calculate the general ledger. Moreover, our admission process has never stipulated which level of official position is at which time. , and more importantly, there is no accurate time for when to open the subject and get the scholarship." Liu Bei also knew the disadvantages of this thing, but compared to the despairingly slow way of the examination and examination system, this kind of disadvantageous method, at least it can be continued.
"Forget it, let me just say what I mean. Can you please stop opening the battlefield? If we open the battlefield again, there will be no one left." Chen Xi said with a smile. The Han Dynasty is very strong. The problem is that in the face of the current situation, The battlefield extends directly from Eastern Europe to Southeast Asia, and World War II was on this scale.
"This is beyond our control. Neither Rome nor Kushan will let go easily." Liu Bei shook his head and said, "We have no way to control our opponents from opening up new battlefields, and we have no way not to curb this kind of thing. occur."
"But the result is that we are very likely to fall into a quagmire." Chen Xi said sadly, "The scale is too big, and we are already short of manpower. It can even be said that if the people under the southern Brahmins were not enslaved To that extent, we may not even be able to make use of it just to suppress it."
"Zichuan, there is too much meaningless writing. It is true that we are in difficulty, but the other side is not much better. We have opened so many battlefields to fight, and the other side absolutely needs to invest troops in those battlefields. The battle of empires No one can win easily, you told me this." Liu Bei patted Chen Xi on the shoulder and said.
