The Human Emperor Chapter 1165: The meaning of war!
Chapter One hundred and sixty-five
This has always been a confidant of Moutassem III, and sometimes it is difficult to fall asleep at night. But now if you think about it, even though those Tang Peoples are menacing, they have successfully attracted all hidden remnant and insurgents. Just like High Priest said, as long as they are appeased, wait until Great Army arrives, maybe they can beat them all, once and for all!
If you can use them to kill and clean them up, even if these Tang People are detained, extortion of one billion taels of gold will not be unacceptable.
—— This is a real double bird.
In a split second, the pupils of Moutassem III shrink, and they suddenly become quiet. His eyebrows moved slightly, his head bowed, and a look of consternation appeared in his eyes.
"Hullar, how long does it take for military force(s) in each place to arrive?"
Caliphate Harry, Moutassem III suddenly turned his head and looked at His Royal Highness. A Caliphate Governor, who was kneeling on the ground like steel, had not spoken.
"Empire White Corpse", Hullar!
Although it is not as powerful and famous as Caliphate War God Qutayba, it is also a prestige cast in battles. Because the complexion is too pale, like a corpse, it gets its name.
However, in the eyes of the entire Caliphate Empire, as well as the surrounding countries, the reputation of Hullar is not worse than Blood and Iron Governor Abu Muslin.
His coldness, Iron Blood, and bloodthirsty are, to a certain extent, more powerful than Abu Muslin. Most of the opponents who fell into his hands were dead.
This time, the Qutayba died. The entire Baghdad, the governor who was called, is probably the most famous "Empire White Corpse".
If you want to deal with the two hundred thousand * and the rebel army of Khorasan, Hullar is definitely Commander-in-Chief, which is not to be let down. This is why Caliphate Caliph, Moutassem III asked him subconsciously.
"Your Majesty, if you are fast, you can actually gather Great Army in seven days. But they are all ordinary military force(s), which can not pose too much threat to the thick Urds City. If you want to gather enough people and top Great General, It will take at least fifteen to twenty days to completely destroy the enemy forces of Khorasan!
Hullar thought for a moment, finally stood up and said.
"A night march, up to ten days, all Great Army must be rushed to Khorasan, I will never allow these Eastern pagans to stay in Khorasan for an extra day."
Caliphate Caliph, Moutassem III turned his head abruptly, no doubt.
"humble general obeys!"
Hullar only hesitated for a moment, immediately without hesitation.
Although time is short, it is almost impossible to bring enough military force(s) from other theaters of Caliphate and get to Khorasan in enough time. For the Empire white corpse Hullar, although time is tight and Quest is difficult, as long as it marches day and night, it is not impossible, and it only needs to kill and wound some people.
—— Because for Hullar, these are not his concerns at all.
Boom!
It's just like a huge war machine, the fiasco in the east, the death of Qutayba, the fall of Khorasan, and the threat of Wang Chong's ... all of these made the entire Caliphate Empire anger, and quickly carried out military force(s) transfer. The atmosphere of war has not weakened, but has become more intense.
...
"Sir Protectorate, Caliphate People's next city is only dozens of miles away, and there is no air defense there. As long as we are willing, two hundred thousand military force(s) can cross that Tigris River, and we can occupy that city without any hesitation. And Bakrham General also said, From there to the west, there are more than a dozen cities, and there is no danger between the city and the city. If we want, we can quickly occupy these Caliphate territories. Why do adults stop at this time? , Order Great Army to take a break in place? "
In the dome hall of Khorasan, the fourth character Lou Shiyi of Anxi Protectorate Army couldn't help asking.
Caliphate People's palace splendid and magnificent houses, the domed roof is full of various detailed vine-like patterns, and the smooth floor paved with marble is completely different from Central Plains. The floor was even inlaid with many pearls and agates, the level of luxury was shocking. But at this moment, in the hall, no matter whether it is Gao Xianzhi, Cheng Qianli, Xi Yuanqing, or Li Siye, Black Armored Imperial Guard, Su Hanshan, Xue Qianjun, etc., all of them have no interest in this, and everyone's attention is focused on Wang Chong.
There are more than ten Caliphate cities. As long as everyone is willing, all are within easy reach, but Wang Chong stopped the pace of war at this time, which makes it difficult for everyone to understand.
"hē hē, I ask you, we marched all the way, from Talas to Samarkand, and then to Khorasan, what caused so many people? What is it for? Is it just for war?"
Wang Chong smiled slightly.
Hearing this sentence, everyone in the hall was stunned. No one expected that Wang Chong would throw this problem. There are basically generals in the hall. Isn't don't tell me born for war as a general? The significance of all this existence, isn't don't tell me to win this war?
At this moment, everyone couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Wang Chong takes everyone ’s reactions into account and laughs. War is an art. It is a means rather than a purpose. Every war, you must understand its purpose and significance. This is the strategy of war Level thinking. Judging from the reactions of everyone in the hall, this war concept is clearly beyond this era.
"The duty of the general is to win the battle, but now that we have defeated Caliphate People with already, do we still need to continue fighting? already was injured and injured more than 100,000. Will we fight to the last person next?"
Wang Chong glanced at everyone.
After hearing Wang Chong's words, everyone was speechless. The war between Great Tang and Caliphate ended in the victory of Great Tang and hit Khorasan all the way, penetrated into the hinterland of Caliphate Empire, and was not far from their empire Baghdad, directly threatening this huge Empire, but Great Tang also paid At a huge price. For the general, you should lead Great Army to win the battle. If soldier(s)'s role is not this, what can it be?
The purpose of war is not to kill or fight for war. Everything is for the benefit. As long as it is profitable, a war can go on, and it can help the national economy and the people's livelihood, not a burden.
Historically, war was criticized for purely killing people. It was called poor soldiers, and even the entire country was dragged down. Great Emperor Han Wu conquered the North and the South, and Wenzhi martial arts was the first in the world. It was called the emperor of ancient times, but it was criticized in its later years. It was because of its weak national strength.
"The range involved in the war is very large in all aspects. Various human, material, and war equipment, as well as military force(s), and food and grass, are costly, so Confucian School will be attacked in all ways. That's why. If a war can't bring benefits to Empire, no one will support it. "
Wang Chong looks at everyone behind him, gravely says.
The conflict between military officials and generals has a long history. Throughout each history and dynasty, each outbreak will trigger the shock of Royal Court, and even cause the collapse and fall of a Empire. If you look carefully, the root cause is not the difference between the generals and military generals on the surface, nor is it a literary gentleman. The generals are rude. The root cause is that a war cannot bring any benefits to a Empire.
It's not just Wen Chen. In everyone's eyes, war is a kind of consumption. It consumes a lot of warhorses, livestock, food and grass, and countless lives. All of it is negative. Once a war broke out in the frontier, the generals expeditioned, carried out a defensive counterattack, and finally defeated the enemy and won the victory. It was just that they did not lose points, but they were not enough to add points.
On the whole, the impression of the army and war is always negative, and it is always with Death. Or, according to a certain statement, once the war begins, it means the excessive collection of military force(s) and food and grass, causing a panic among the people.
But if war can bring benefits, but also huge benefits, and benefit the people, then everything is completely different.
If you do not change this problem from the root, the conflict between civil and military forces will never end, and the war will again and again enter the dead end of the poor soldiers.
In the hall, there was a dead silence, everyone was silent, and even Gao Xianzhi showed a thoughtful look.
The words Wang Chong are really a problem that even Gao Xianzhi never thought about. soldier(s) already is accustomed to war. Once it has the upper hand, the most important thing to do is to continue to expand the results while smithing is hot. Rather than embarrassingly like Wang Chong, he can obviously attack more than a dozen cities in succession, but Great Army is constrained instead of preparing for battle.
But at this time, I made a request to Caliphate, and used a dozen Caliphate cities as a weight to file a war claim.
This form of war, let alone Central Plains with a history of thousands of years, has been in never even in the history of the entire continent. I have to say that in Wang Chong, there will always be a lot of new and interesting things.
"But Wang Chong, a billion taels of gold is such a huge number, will Caliphate People really agree?"
Aside, Cheng Qianli frowned slightly and couldn't help asking.
This letter was led by him personally, and Lou Shiyi caught the pen, and he sent it after reading it, and he knew everything. The figure of one billion taels of gold, even when he saw it at first, was so horrible that so much gold piled up, I am afraid that it is really a mountain, and you can buy a lot of cities directly. Caliphate People will really promise such a sky-high asking price. ?
At first, Cheng Qianli thought that this was just a strategic strategy of Wang Chong's, for some bigger strategy, but now it seems that he is completely serious.
"Ha Ha Ha, why not?"
Wang Chong looked at the crowd in the hall with a look of self-confidence:
"Although there are many billion taels of golds, they are not unbearable for Caliphate. This Empire's Imperial Family is much richer than we thought, and this matter can't help them not agree. As you can see That way, if Caliphate refuses, we can quickly cross Tigris River and go straight to other cities. "
