Chapter 698: How to conquer Ah 3

Although the number of non-system Han warships of A Sanyo has been increasing repeatedly, it has never exceeded four hundred. Such non-systematic warships are already the limit of the Han nation. It is not that more warships cannot be built, or the navy is not enough. Even if it is re-recruitment, it will take time for training.

"We will have more warships." Huan Wen said that a large number of system docks have been built, and warships have begun to be launched: "In terms of number, we will not be less than Ah San, and can even be several times more!"

Li Mai's status is not as high as Huan Wen's. Some secrets that are not secrets are not known to him. After hearing this, he was relieved, but had to ask: "General, when can the reinforcements arrive?"

Huan Wen would not say that reinforcements do not need to arrive at all. There is already a fleet of more than 500 warships in the rear (Dawei), and there will be more and more.

"For the time being, I will spend it with them first." Huan Wen is still aware of his own disadvantages: "We need more maritime combat experience."

Li Mai has already got the answer he wants, and he strongly agrees with Huan Wen's accumulative maritime combat experience.

After the Gupta dynasty also formed a formation to deal with the Han army's attacking formation, Li Mai clearly reported to Huan Wen that his side was indeed inferior to the Gupta Navy in terms of experience in naval battles, and that it was completely better for his warship to be better than the Gupta. ferry.

It must be said that there is actually only one serious maritime war in Han, and the opponent is still the fighting Gupta dynasty. Prior to this, Han hadn't encountered any opponents at sea, and its expansion in the Pacific could only be regarded as enclosure rather than conquest.

Before Liu Yan established the Han Kingdom, none of the previous dynasties had experience in naval warfare, and they were fighting inland water wars. The experience of inland river water warfare bluntly puts it in two levels with sea water warfare. The water flow above the sea is not one-way, and the battle site is far beyond the Hanoi water system.

The reason why the Han Navy has repeatedly avoided a naval battle with the Gupta Dynasty is that the number of warships stationed at the Pingman Captain's Department is far less than that of the Gupta Navy. Another aspect is that the Han Dynasty cannot play the battle level now. Of naval battles.

"We have been using raid warfare to accumulate naval warfare experience, and we are also cultivating more qualified and even excellent seafarers with warfare." Li Mai said the reason why Han has been maintaining raid warfare since it did not want to fight economic warfare. : "Recently, Ah San formed a large formation to deal with it. Our three warships as a group of destroying formations have been difficult to play a role, and even the phenomenon of being surrounded and annihilated."

After all, no one is stupid. Knowing the mistakes and continuing to make mistakes is difficult to appear at the national level. It must be modified according to the situation. The Gupta Dynasty found that Han had repeatedly avoided naval battles, and would inevitably find that Han was not enough warships, or Han has no confidence in winning the great battle.

After the Gupta Dynasty discovered that Han did not want to fight a sea battle, their internal voice was concentrated on a large number of ships, and it should be replaced by them blocking the Han warships on the coast. This opinion was not agreed. The reason was that even if the Han warship was blocked on the coast, the Gupta dynasty would not be able to land before it was ready. It would be better to release the Han warship to find an opportunity to destroy it.

That's right, the Gupta dynasty will not give up because of a failed landing operation. They know and understand that if the Han army base entrenched on the coast of the country is not occupied or destroyed, even victory at sea will not be considered a success.

On the other hand, isn't the Gupta dynasty unblocked along the coast? Their knowledge of Asanyang far surpasses that of the Han people, and ships have already detoured to the Malacca area to spy on them, and they found that the Han country is running Malacca on a large scale. This discovery shocked the Gupta dynasty. If the brains were not broken, it was clear that this war was no longer a trivial matter, and should be prepared for a long-term battle.

"Inevitable." Huan Wen said that the Gupta dynasty discovered that Han was operating Malacca: "The news sent back by Xizuo has repeatedly shown that Ah San is already mobilizing the southern part of the country."

The Han and Gupta dynasties entered a state of war, but the two sides established a channel of communication. The reason was that a large number of Asan nobles were captured on the Han side, and soldiers were captured on the Han side, and both sides wanted to redeem themselves. The person must have a channel of communication.

Speaking of prisoners of war, Huan Wen did not treat the captured Asan nobles too harshly, and gave Asan relative preferential treatment to those captured nobles, but he would not be completely used to those Asan nobles, such as exaggerated requirements for residence. There are so many beauties waiting for you. However, he knew that the captured soldiers of his side received exaggerated preferential treatment as long as they had a knighthood, and even one of them had lived in Ah San's palace. He felt dumbfounded and at the same time incomprehensible.

For Zhu Xia Civilization, being captured is an unacceptable thing, no matter what the reason is, it is a shame to be captured. After being captured, even if you are released, you will not be able to raise your head for a lifetime. Quite a lot of civilizations don't think there is anything wrong with surrendering after doing their best. After being captured, they can still be regarded as heroes if they go back alive.

Ahsan had a lot of exchanges with many civilizations of Europa, and was influenced by many European and Roman civilizations. For example, the nobles could pay a ransom for redemption after being captured. The reason why they arranged the nobles on the Han side in the palace was that they did not want to fight with the Han at the beginning, and wanted to rely on the captured nobles of the Han to find a peaceful channel. After really determined to fight, although Ah San still guaranteed the treatment of the nobles of the Han country, he really didn't want to ask for more.

"They are indeed setting up defense lines along the coast." Yuan Qiao has done intelligence sorting, and said: "Except for Queketak, some areas are stationed with heavy troops while building fortifications. The number of troops is known to reach 200,000."

At the present stage, the expeditionary generals, including Huan Wen, are no longer ignorant of the Gupta dynasty. During the battle, it was discovered that the Gupta navy was indeed rich in combat experience. They also knew that the Gupta dynasty was the overlord of the region. There is no doubt that the dynasty can arm millions of people.

"Their untouchables have the same status as livestock." Yuan Qiao meant that the senior officials of Gupta did not regard domestic untouchables as human beings: "Asan's untouchables have not undergone any militarization training. They are only armed in large numbers."

Without any joking, Ah San's untouchables are really not regarded as adults. Their social structure determines that only a small part of untouchables can own their own land, and most untouchables do not have their own land.

Han has not yet figured out how Asan’s untouchables should obtain living supplies if they don’t have their own land, but it’s enough to know that Asan’s untouchables are not regarded as people, it means that the Gupta dynasty really doesn’t care how many untouchables die, they What to face is the endless armed untouchables.

"Asan's elite is the Kshatriya Legion." Yuan Qiao has studied the caste system of Asan, and has already figured out what is going on: "The so-called Kshatriya is a warrior, equivalent to our professional warriors in the pre-Qin era. ."

Then there is nothing wrong with saying that, in the ancient and pre-Qin period of Zhu Xia, there existed such a class, that is, a warrior who did not work all his life but only practiced killing skills. They themselves or their ancestors established war exploits to obtain land rewards. They will have a varying number of slaves as labor. They usually train again and again. When they are called, they will bring their own weapons to join the national army. This is not only to complete military service, but also to establish new war exploits to continue the family's prosperity.

The others do not know what happened to the professional warriors in the pre-Qin period because of their limited knowledge. People from big families like Huanwen and Li Mai knew that after they learned that there was a class in the Gupta dynasty, they were actually No worries.

I have been training martial arts since I was a child. I will only practice killing skills if I don’t participate in labor all my life. If I have enough resources, I will learn the knowledge of "the enemy of ten thousand people." People who know what is going on will definitely feel jealous of this class.

Having said that, Zhu Xia civilizations disappeared from recruiting civilians onto the battlefield. However, the so-called family of generals appeared again, which means that this class has never really disappeared, but has just moved towards a more high-end route.

The warrior class has become a general system in the Zhuxia civilization. The Persian civilization has actually evolved into a general system similar to the Zhuxia civilization. However, many other civilized warriors have always existed and continued, such as the Kshatriya of the Asan civilization. , For example, the citizens of Rome, as for the warrior class of Japanese people, also continued.

According to Huan Wen, the number of Kshatris in the Gupta dynasty is very large. The last time the Gupta dynasty dispatched 40,000 troops, there were thousands of Kshatris. He has seen the performance of Gupta's Kshatriya on the battlefield, and he has seen that those Kshatriya are at least good at killing people, but for the time being, he has not seen what Kshatriya has made in commanding operations.

"Except for the royal family, each of their castes has its own status and rights." Yuan Qiao explained the four major levels in the caste system, and said with certainty: "Each level has its own status and rights. It has its own obligations and responsibilities."

The first-level Brahmins are mainly monks and nobles, who have the privilege of interpreting religious scriptures and worshipping gods and the right to enjoy dedication. They are mainly responsible for education, the audience Kshatriya, and they are responsible for monopolizing cultural education and reporting on the farming season and the interpretation of religious discourse.

The second level of Kshatriya is the military aristocracy and administrative aristocracy, the audience of Brahmin thought, they have the privilege of collecting various taxes, and they are in charge of the army and are responsible for guarding the Brahmin class for life.

The third level of Vaisha is an ordinary Aryan. There are no political privileges. The first two levels must be supported in the form of charity and taxation, and the main business is.

The majority of the fourth-level Sudras are conquered aboriginals and belong to non-Aryans. They are composed of high-level servants and craftsmen who serve meals and cooks. They are the most populous caste. Is considered a lowly occupation. In the caste system, the offspring of both parents from different castes are called hybrid castes.

A group of generals sounds like "tall, big and good". A group will learn those things for a lifetime. As long as they are not stupid like pigs, they will definitely achieve something.

Today's Zhu Xia civilization does not have a system of "skills, agriculture, industry, and business". After hearing what Yuan Qiao said, many people think that this system of Asan is very advanced.

Even Huan Wen came to many conclusions after understanding the caste system of Asan. For example, as for Asan under the caste system, the country must be very stable. He believes that if each class can shoulder the responsibilities of its own class, the country does not want to It's hard to be strong.

In fact, I’m not kidding, if Ah San’s caste system has not developed "crooked", every class is committed to its own responsibilities and obligations, and the ruler who leads the country is brilliant and magnificent. Ah San’s caste system is still true. It has considerable advantages (not the other way around), that is, the system is very good, but the people who implement the system are not good.

There is no absolutely perfect system in the world. A system is established by people and executed by people. The same system will have different results when used by different people.

In fact, Zhu Xia civilization does not have a caste system similar to that of Ah San. The taxis, agriculture, industry, and business that appeared later are just like that. Even the craftsmen and businessmen are restricted from changing jobs, and the "skills" with the least number and the greatest power control everything. However, it gives the most "farmers" room to make progress, and proves that the people who came up with this system are at least rational, knowing that they should draw a cake for the "farmers", the most numerous class.

"If Ah San allows upward progress, it is almost a system of strong nation." Huan Wen pointed out the fatal flaws of the caste system. He said: "Now I know why Ah San is stable in the country. Apart from caste, he is the religion. "

The reason why they are talking about this is not already discussing the details after landing. They must first figure out the object of the conquest, but they can't just bump into it without knowing anything.

"Zhi has tried to instigate rebellion..." Yuan Qiao paused with a wry smile: "Almost no effect."

At least until the secret history of the court of "My Great Qing" ~lightnovelpub.net~ The history of Zhuxia is actually a history of war. It is no stranger to the use of tactics, on the contrary, there are too many methods.

Yuan Qiao was responsible for buying up the nobles of the Gupta Dynasty, but just as he said, he didn't know if the method was wrong or something, it really didn't work.

"Huh?" Huan Wen was a little unbelievable: "How could this be?"

If Yuan Qiao knew the reason, it wouldn't be ineffective. He continued to smile wryly, not knowing what to say.

The Han state rebelled against the captured Gupta nobles, and it was nothing more than coercion and temptation. The executable Yuan Qiao really didn't understand one key point. Of course, all of Ah San's nobles were not all loyal to the emperor and patriotic. It was because the Han army did not really invade Gupta. In the native land, according to Ah San's thinking, any promises that did not reach their native land are false.

It’s not that difficult to get Asan to serve himself. They attacked their homeland and carried out occupation, showing that they are absolutely capable of overthrowing them. At this stage, you don’t have to take the initiative to promise any benefits, as long as you are willing to continue to implement the caste. The system, to a certain extent, abide by the customs of Asan, and then retain the original privileges of each class, just wait for Asan to scramble and be willing to serve.
