Chapter 654 Military Focus
In the cold winter month, the New Year is coming again, and the storm that lasted for a year ended quietly.
Although the storm ended, the contradiction between civil and military affairs has been deeply rooted in the entanglement of more than a year.
But as I am in power today, this contradiction can only be hidden deep and waiting for the next opportunity to break out freely.
But it is obvious that big news is hard to see, but small actions and hidden arrows are indispensable for hurting people...
The emperor naturally knew all this that although the year of civil and military competition caused considerable turmoil, it also cleaned up a large number of borers.
The most important thing is that civil and military officials tear their faces apart and hold on to the opposite side will inevitably lead to a deep estrangement, and supervision under the estrangement is barely considered a virtuous cycle.
Of course, the premise of this virtuous cycle is that the emperor can suppress civil and military affairs.
Otherwise, it would be the party struggle in the late Ming Dynasty, which changed the soup and did not change the medicine.
It’s just that the party’s targets have changed from civil servants to civil servants.
Time passed by little by little in this calm, and the world entered the seventh year under Zhaowu's rule.
According to the Daheng system, there will be major discussions at the end of the year to summarize the development of the year for the court.
There were also major discussions at the beginning of the year to formulate national policies for the new year and to formulate development plans.
These plans are often phased supplements to the major strategies implemented by the country in previous years.
For example, migration strategies, such as engineering disaster relief, financial, tax and land reform implementation, etc., will all make plans at the major discussion at the beginning of the year and then implement them. At the same time, there are also extremely clear basis for evaluation.
And these are just matters at the level of civil servants' governance, and there are also major issues to discuss on Wu Xun's side.
Such as the restructuring and addition of the Navy, such as the strategic process of the southwest, northwest, and grassland...
But these are not matters above the big discussion, but the separate court discussions of important civil and military officials.
Although Daheng's focus is on domestic development now, it is obvious that the emperor's desire to expand territory has not weakened at all.
In recent years, the strategic actions of the northwest, southwest, grassland, and naval reforms have all clearly revealed the emperor's intentions.
All this is naturally something that officials and generals know well in the court and the country.
Compared with the stability of most provinces in Daheng, in addition to Daheng, these three important areas are obviously much more chaotic in the northwest Tibet, the northern border grassland, and the southwest Yunnan and Guizhou.
For example, the northwest Tibet has been difficult since Zhou Yuji commanded the heavy troops in Shaanxi to erode the northwest Tibet.
The power of Daheng's military lies in large-scale frontal wars. The terrain of the northwest Tibet should not be too steep and there is no foundation for large-scale combat. It can only be attacked and eroded by small elite troops.
And this is the simplest question.
After all, the sphere of influence of the tribes such as Junggar, which are now entrenched in the northwest Tibet, has not yet spread to the northwest border of Daheng.
What Daheng is facing is only some local tribes in the border areas. Before they reach the core of the northwest Tibet, they will not have too much conflict with the northwest Tibet tribes.
What is really difficult is the terrain and the road!
Daheng's erosion of the northwest Tibet naturally has strict strategic goals.
According to the strategic plan formulated by the General Staff, in time, Daheng will definitely do his best to make every effort in one battle!
That is... one battle to determine the grassland, one battle to defeat Tibet!
This core goal is also the current Daheng erosion of the northwest Tibet and its fundamental guidance for the northern border grassland.
For the northwest Tibet, we are walking slowly and steadily. The fundamental purpose is to prepare for a large-scale march to Tibet in the future.
Building roads, troop stations, migrating people, and eroding from Shaanxi and Sichuan, several places were placed in the direction of Tibet.
Compared to the difficulties of Tibet, it is much simpler to the northern grasslands.
Since Lin Danhan went south and was forced to withdraw his troops, the border trades that used to maintain the grasslands have been completely closed and have never been opened yet.
The imperial court used the fundamental purpose of differentiating and encouraging grasslands, causing civil strife in the grasslands to be endless, and eliminating the vitality of grasslands.
After the closure of the mutual market and soliciting so many years, the entire grassland has completely changed the situation compared to the past.
Lin Danhan, the uncrowned king of the grassland, now does not have the power of the past. With Daheng persisting for sowing differentiation for so many years, the situation on the grassland has already returned to the era of heroes competing.
Lin Danhan can only be said to be a Mongolian Khan who still holds military power, and he has no ability to control the situation on the grassland.
After all, the most fundamental point is that the grassland supplies are scarce. Many times, you must go south to fight for the autumn wind, or trade with the southern dynasty.
Nowadays, the mutual market is closed and going south several times, and each time it is bloody.
In the crisis of survival, or before he, Lin Dan Khan, could not solve the survival crisis of his tribe, he, the great Mongolian Khan, would have been useless.
He could only sit still and watch the Mongolian Empire, which he had finally created, collapsed and ended up fighting against each other. What's more, he became a complete Erwuzi, secretly attracted by Daheng, provided support, and stirred up muddy waters in the grassland.
In addition, the Iron Cavalry of the Daheng Bian Pass was not pulling the side frame, plowing the courtyard and sweeping the caves again and again, and catching the strong men and prisoners for entering Tibet, which made Lin Dan feel so angry that he felt so angry.
It is obvious that the situation on the grassland, under the careful manipulation of a unified dynasty, will inevitably continue and become increasingly chaotic.
Just wait for Daheng to accumulate energy in the future, he can step on the grassland and do his best in one battle.
The southwest Yunnan and Guizhou areas are obviously very different from the northwest Tibet and the northern border grasslands.
After all, the northwest Tibet and the northern border grassland are all veritable overseas. They can do whatever they want. The iron cavalry of the border ran to the grassland to catch slaves and build roads, and no one said anything, so they could see how inhumane Daheng was to outsiders.
But the places in Yunnan and Guizhou are obviously completely different. In the Ming Dynasty, although there are still many chieftains now, in a sense, it is considered a serious province in the Han area.
Those endless chieftains, under the intimidation of Daheng's military power, were also obedient to Daheng on the surface. Before the rebellion, they were the people of Daheng.
In addition, the focus of Daheng's military use is now on the management of Yunnan and Guizhou in the north and southwest China. Under these concerns, it is obviously difficult to move forward.
But Yan Shun, who was in charge of Yunnan and Guizhou, was in the same dilemma as Zhou Yuji, who was in charge of the northwest.
After all, whether it is Yunnan and Guizhou, Tibet, or the terrain, it is steep and rugged.
In this way, the two have obviously the same purpose.
That is, no matter what the situation is, you will be busy building roads!
When you encounter stones and blow stones, or build bridges when you encounter water, you are determined to build a smooth road.
Therefore, after taking office as the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, Yan Shun and the governors of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces, reported to the Ministry of Works, formulated a road construction plan.
Over the past few years, road construction projects can be seen everywhere in Yunnan and Guizhou.
From Guangxi to Yunnan and Guizhou, from Sichuan to Yunnan and Guizhou, and the internal roads of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces...
The purpose is very simple, completely unblocking the roads between Yunnan and Guizhou provinces and other provinces in the world.
Only when the road is unobstructed, all the problems that are now troubled are no longer a problem in the face of Daheng's military power.
