Chapter 172 (1/2)
Although after nearly two years of tempering with blood and fire, both soldiers and equipment are no longer the mob of that time, but fighting the regular army, except Dixon and his lineage, from top to bottom, are playing drums.
After all, the victory of the slave uprising army in the past two years relied more on Dixon's tactics, and the result of confrontation with the regular army led by the Mayu army was not particularly good.
The root cause of the slave uprising at the beginning broke out completely in its heyday.
Starbuck and Dixon, no matter their origin or experience, decided their way of life, there was a great difference.
In the beginning, when the slave uprising was in a precarious situation, they could suppress their personalities and work together to tide over the difficulties.
However, when the external threat becomes smaller, with the position and weight, their personality will not only be displayed incisively and vividly, but also magnified to a certain extent. After all, they can influence a group of people now.
”Starbuck doesn't really believe in the negotiation table, nor does he really believe in Philip and patrim's promises. I prefer that this is one of his means, a means to check and balance Dixon.”
”I don't need to say more about Dixon's reputation. We have studied his battles over and over again. Under all conditions, we can't say that he is the best. At least, no one here can do it. This is a rising general star. His reputation may have spread to Byron league with brilliant achievements, and no one can fight for his slaves He was born as a scholar and despised his tactical talent
”But all this is not necessarily what Starbuck wants to see. Earlier, we have analyzed the character of Starbuck. This is a typical schemer who can no longer be typical. The slave uprising army is only a tool for him to be promoted to a higher position. He has only great ambition and talent. From the beginning, he did not use this double-edged sword well, which far underestimated the leading slaves and slaves of the Manyu army The contradiction between the government and the Lord greatly underestimated the ability of Dixon, and eventually he was unable to get off
”In the past year, the strong rise of Dixon has greatly marginalized Starbuck. If it goes on like this, it will not be long before the whole slave uprising army will only know about the bloody storm general Dixon, but not tarbac. He must take corresponding measures before that.”
”In my opinion, in the next period of time, the biggest enemy of the slave uprising army will no longer exist outside, but inside. If their leadership can unify their consciousness and ideas, they may be able to achieve more brilliant achievements, otherwise they will turn from prosperity to decline, be trapped at home and abroad, and will fall apart at any time. I hold a pessimistic attitude towards this, so we need to Be well prepared. ”
”If the slave revolts succeed in going south, we can just sit on the mountain and watch. Philip and patrimer have a civil war to fight against. Not only do they have no time to pay attention to us, they may offer us olive branches to stabilize us for the time being.”
”If the slave uprising army fails to go south and disintegrates, we have something to do. Is it the crucial moment to pull them in? Or the biggest piece of cake from them? ”
This analysis of bull Erikson, the first military staff officer of Yongye group army, received a burst of warm applause.
This is the regular military meeting of the military staff of the Yongye group army.
It has become a routine practice to use the information in hand to analyze the world and the surrounding events.
They have already seen the dividend brought about by the macro perspective. As long as they grasp the opportunity, they can also reap great benefits even in unrelated events.
This time, the Mayu army led the outbreak of the slave uprising army, which was full of victims. Only the Yongye group army was full of oil. Others should remember them well, especially the slave uprising army.
At present, the middle and low-level soldiers in the slave uprising army have a natural preference for the Yongye group army. After all, a large part of their own equipment and food are produced by the Yongye group army. They are full of yearning for a relatively stable and prosperous life there.
Only those who suffer from the scourge of war will understand the value of peace.
In the past two years, the slave uprising forces have been moving around, rarely staying in the same place for more than three months, including when they were neighbors with the Yongye group army.
Over time, many people will inevitably feel tired of war, especially those soldiers at the bottom.
Compared with the vagabond and precarious life, it is human nature to yearn for a stable and prosperous life.
In addition, the slave uprising army began to use the population to exchange materials from the Yongye group army at the beginning, even if it was found that there were great disadvantages in this trade and it was urgent to stop it.
Even so, the soldiers of the slave uprising army still fled to the Yongye group army.
In this regard, the high-level of the slave uprising army was very angry and made a strong protest to the Yongye group army, demanding the repatriation of the runaway soldiers.
What's more, it involves a diplomatic attitude.
The response of the Yongye group army is quite tough. Since all the people who enter their territory belong to their leaders, they have the obligation to protect their safety. However, for the sake of friendly relations between the two sides, the Yongye group army will give certain material compensation to the slave uprising army as appropriate.No matter how much resentment they have in their hearts, the slave uprising army can only recognize it by the nose. After all, they have much dependence on the Yongye group army now. If they lose this line, their life will be many times more difficult.
The only thing the slave uprising army can do is to strengthen its own management and close this loophole with severe punishment.
However, as long as we are close to the Yongye group army, there is no way to stop this kind of thing.
The attitude of the Yongye group army towards the slave uprising army has always been neutral, neither hostile nor unconditional.
Any decision-making is based on their own interests and the pursuit of maximum interests, which is the instinct of an interest group.
This is also the attitude towards the defeat of the slave uprising army.
There is no dispute within the Yongye group army.
Whether the slave uprising army was defeated or not had both advantages and disadvantages for the Yongye group army.
The advantage is that with the slave uprising army as the big target, the Yongye group army can develop itself calmly and strengthen its strength.
Had it not been for the turmoil they had brought about, the development of the Yongye group army would never have been so smooth. In the gap between the leader of the Manyu army and the Chengzhai alliance, it was struggling to survive. The pace of development was definitely not as fast as it is now.
Even southward, there is a good side to it. Now the trade-off model can still be maintained. If the slave uprising army takes the place of the Yongye group army in disguise, it can search for wealth.
The only drawback is that the two sides will no longer be directly linked to each other, and the transaction process will be a lot of trouble. At that time, perhaps we will have to rely on the power of anjibena and let the other side scratch the skin in vain.
If the slave uprising army is defeated, the Yongye group army can also benefit from it, and their scattered soldiers are precious wealth.
In these days, the most valuable thing is people. Only if there are enough people, can we cultivate more land, open more workshops and create more wealth.
For those lords who always deprive their leaders of their lives and oppress them cruelly, the Yongye group army is the most despised, because it is the most incompetent performance.
The conclusion of the routine military meeting is still unclear.
The main reason is that the current situation of Manyu Army leaders is complex, and their interests are entangled with each other. After they have talked and formulated countermeasures here, the situation will suddenly change tomorrow and the situation will reverse, and their plans will become a pile of waste paper.
