In addition to the three major military divisions, there were 50,000 imperial troops in Lin ‘an Sanya, 20,000 in the early stage of the war, 30,000 in the late stage of the war in northern Zhenjiang, and about 6,000 soldiers in the back and forth water army. In summary, this war did not count as the last war in Lin ‘an, and a total of 103,000 troops participated in this war in Dasong.
According to the specific forces dispatched by the corresponding attacking army, after the signing of the peace treaty, the general Zhou Xiang told the 50,000-water army with a total strength of 63,000, which is almost equal to one-third of our army.
We don’t know the battle damage of the army at present, but the battle damage of our army can be counted. In this battle, except for 10 thousand people guarding Yangzhou, Huainan and Jiangnan were destroyed respectively
Of the 50,000 imperial guards, 20,000 were defeated by the commander-in-chief of Zhenjiang, and another 30,000 were defeated by Huzhou. In addition to the current statistics, the total number of three armies was less than 5,000, and 10,000 defenders from Yangzhou returned to Jiangnan.
According to some routed troops, Jiankangfu army almost didn’t fight head-on with the army except for the destruction of 4,000 people in Jiangning City and the navy division in Shuijiankang, and the army was scattered.
In Chizhou, Li Xianzhong’s 10,000 troops retreated after attacking Jiankang Fujun. He reported a loss of about 2,000 yuan, which guaranteed the main office of Chizhou Dutong Company. If he had not lied, Chizhou Dutong Company was still intact.
That is to say, Jiankang Dutong Company and Chizhou Dutong Company lost more than 69,000 people together, and the number of Zhenjiang Dutong Company and Sanya Imperial Army lost more than 144,000 people in the First World War. "
Chapter 72 Zhao Shen ambitions
After reporting the overall report, Shi Hao didn’t go on to say that he consciously set it aside to remind the emperor and his ministers of the problems reflected in this data.
Sure enough, I went to Zhao Shen to edit the minutes of the Privy Council. Han Yuanji and Lu You all looked very bad
Han Yuanji and Lu Youlai stopped writing directly after hearing this number. They looked up at each other with incredible faces and looked at the nearby throne emperor and senior officials of the new court.
They can’t accept the fact that one hundred thousand troops defended in the Southern Song Dynasty, but they were screened by sixty thousand troops.
What is even more frightening is that this is almost a bureau that has been defeated by the army.
More than three times the strength of the army was defeated by the army, and the army went all the way to the capital to block the defeat of the Southern Song Dynasty. Few troops dared to confront the army head-on and fled without seeing the wind.
It can almost be said that the army base of the Southern Song Dynasty was a group of waste, and it was impossible to protect the country and defend the country. So many troops ate so much food but raised a group of waste.
This makes them feel good?
It is true that the situation of Jiankang House is not true, and there are no 70 thousand troops, but even if his king eats 40 thousand troops, the fact that he lost 100 thousand troops in World War I is irreversible
One hundred thousand soldiers were lost in the first world war, which is a quarter of the number of troops rated in the book of the Song Dynasty, and a quarter of the number of troops owned by the country
In less than two months, the army mobilized 60 thousand troops and wiped out a quarter of Song Jun’s army.
At present, the total number of military forces in China is about 400 thousand, which was dispatched quite a few times in the Southern Song Dynasty. The total number of troops is about seven, and it is very small for the country to be mobilized.
The military gap between the two sides can be seen at a glance. This horrible gap made the monarch and his subjects in the Southern Song Dynasty swish from the top of their heads to the soles of their feet.
This situation is almost comparable to that when Jin Junnan invaded the Northern Song Dynasty.
At that time, Jin Jun was so sharp that millions of troops in the Northern Song Dynasty were beaten out of their wits by Jin Jun and finally lost the capital, the emperor and the royal family, and half of their underwear.
Nowadays, it is a little better than that in the past. It is not necessary for China to conquer Lin ‘an and destroy the ruling class in the Southern Song Dynasty. The goal is to repair the Yellow River with a sum of money.
Judging from their present performance, they really don’t have any other goals. From the beginning, they really wanted to spend a sum of money to repair the Yellow River.
However, in the Southern Song Dynasty, the situation of paying some new year’s money to repair the Yellow River was abruptly turned into a situation of paying tribute to the country and cutting land. It is not a divine exercise
After the initial shock, the emperor and his ministers all came back to taste.
Realizing that the current situation must be changed, if the army continues to be so ruined, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Zhang Jun is undoubtedly the one with the biggest anger.
"Some sinners must be punished, and the killing must be made as an example. It is urgent to rectify armaments and train the army! Otherwise, it is not far from the money needed for a national repair of the Yellow River. "
Zhang Jun’s words were supported by some people in the venue, and they made suggestions and contributed their ideas to self-improvement and self-respect in the Southern Song Dynasty
There are indeed many things that have substance in words, and Zhao Shen heard the surge of emotion as if a new and powerful Da Song empire would appear in the near future 2.
He can lead hundreds of thousands of troops back to the north to recover lost ground, return to Kaifeng to worship and comfort their ancestors, and let them know that he has returned. He has achieved thousands of people but failed to achieve great things.
He is really looking forward to that future.
And Shi Hao is the only one who is calm in such a frenzy.
"Although your ideas are good, every idea needs money. Before that, you can’t treat Dasong as not only paying the country 6.2 million yuan for direct compensation, but also paying 250,000 silver and 250,000 silk cloth coins every year. This is not easy for Dasong."
When everyone made suggestions and suggestions to train a strong country, Shi Hao was very "disappointing" and paid for it. It was like everyone here had a strong fire, and he suddenly pulled his belt and peed and put it out.
That feels really strange.
The atmosphere of a warm and powerful country suddenly stagnated and then slowly dissipated. Everyone was surprised to look at this Shi Hao, even Zhao Shen. He felt that Shi Hao could not read his breath and didn’t see what kind of atmosphere everyone was in.
But in the end, they had to return to reality and realized that Shi Hao’s statement was very reasonable.
Strengthening the army and strengthening the country needs money, but what the Song Dynasty lacks most now is money. There are many ways to strengthen the country and strengthen the army, but making money is the most important thing.
"It is not only to compensate the country and the old currency, but also to restore the pension for the dead in the post-war places. There is also the problem of official salt. The army has destroyed many large saltworks. Once the official salt can’t be smuggled, the salt tax revenue of Dasong will be greatly reduced.
Not only that, but also the maritime trade, in advance, the navy division Suzhou Ocean intercepted merchant ships and plunderers to drive away merchants, which greatly affected the trade in the Song Dynasty, and even the prices in Lin’ an rose sharply. Today, the people complained that these are all problems. "
Shi Hao sighed and looked at Zhao Shen’s face. "The veteran knows that he is eager to strengthen the country and strengthen the army, but he must rectify the bureaucracy, rectify the salt administration and rectify the maritime business before he can strengthen the army and strengthen the country."
Zhao Shen looked ugly with his head down and said nothing.
Zhang Jun is a little sit still.
"Governing the country is of course important. I know that the salt tax on maritime business is of course important, but I don’t agree with the issue of history."
Shi Hao looked at Zhang Jun.
"Is Zhang Shumi knowledgeable?"
"Let’s talk about it. No, I mean, when everything that the Historical Affairs Office wants to do is needed, if it is needed by a strong country and a strong army, and if it is needed later, is it given to you by Congress?"
Zhang Jun looked back at Shi Hao.
Shi Hao shook his head.
"What does Congress do? I don’t know that Zhang Shumi doesn’t know that there is an emperor who knows that what we know is that China is planning to build the Yellow River and change it back to its original course.
Such a large engineering country must make every effort to repair the Yellow River and go to war at the same time. Even if the country is strong, it can’t be done. When the country starts to repair the Yellow River, Dasong is an. "
Zhang Jun shook his head.
"Is that your country can’t do that? As before, we all recognized that it was impossible for the army to reach Linan with 60,000 troops. What was the result? The country’s 60 thousand troops broke through Dasong and humiliated Dasong!
We don’t know that there are too many things, and the soldiers can’t be ignored, and the division of history and xianggong must be carried out at the same time. "
Shi Hao slightly calculated a slow opening.
"DaSong financial situation now if you want to pay reparations and old money at the same time for political and military affairs is bound to be stretched, and at the same time the country can’t appear natural and man-made disasters, otherwise DaSong will have no money to deal with natural and man-made disasters.
Therefore, I still think that we should be safe, first stabilize the country’s situation, and then rebuild the army and practice the army to enhance its military strength. "
Zhang Jun still doesn’t recognize it.
"The truth is that the dead are alive. How can you be confined to the truth of death and stand still? History "xianggong" I know that you handle a safe political affairs, and naturally it is up to you to run it. We are all at ease, but the military is urgent. "
Shi Hao couldn’t convince Zhang Jun to make a request to Zhao Shen instead.
"It is very difficult to promote military innovation and local restoration at the same time in the current financial situation of Dasong. The old minister’s war has just stopped and the country will not easily start again. Dasong should strive to restore local stable finances and then strengthen the military?"
Chapter 721 Su Yonglin’s Sandwich Martial Arts
Shi Hao, who has just been defeated, knows that Zhao Shen must want to avenge himself, but he still hopes that Zhao Shen can calm down and see clearly the huge gap between the Southern Song Dynasty and China, which cannot be explained in a few words.
Perseverance is needed when needed, and perseverance is needed.
Zhang Jun also looked at Zhao Shen and waited for Zhao Shen’s decision, looking forward to hearing Zhao Shen’s willingness to develop its military strength as soon as possible, which was very meaningful to him.
He always thinks that only by winning the battlefield can he prove that Dasong is strong and win an opportunity for peaceful development for Dasong, otherwise, what will you do if your country is developing here and you are upset and call again?
After developing so much and earning so much money, didn’t it all get cheaper in the end?
Their opinions are quite tit for tat.
Zhao Shen looked up at Shi Hao and then at Zhang Jun in a tangle.
He thinks Shi Hao is right. It’s an old-fashioned and serious statement to restore and develop the economy when the Song Dynasty really needs it.
But he also felt that Zhang Jun was right. If he couldn’t prove that he was strong and developed, wouldn’t he be slaughtered like a pig?
