    ?Favod is feeling very aggrieved now. It's not that he can't defeat them. The quality of the soldiers under his command is still better than that of the Qiang people. But the problem is that Favod doesn't dare to fight as hard as he did before.  In the past, when fighting in the local area, we just recruited troops on the spot after the battle. Anyway, they have a lot of people in Kushan, and there are also many cadres who have been trained in the mountainous areas of Beigui. If they add more people and train them a little, they will form another legion, so there is no need to worry about reserve troops.  problem.  This is just like the counties in Liangzhou don't worry about soldiers at all when fighting in the local area. No one can send hundreds of thousands of cavalry, but the counties in Liangzhou can put together 300,000 armored cavalry, and they can all be used.  It is the version of Xiliang Iron Cavalry, with stable combat effectiveness.  But if it were to go on an expedition, if you look at the situation of the Han Dynasty fighting Kushan, you will know that going out for an expedition and fighting on the mainland are two different things. Food and grass logistics, troop allocation, transfer recruitment, etc. all need to be calculated and used. Basically, it is a hundred thousand troops.  It would take hundreds of thousands of civilians to transport food and grass, tens of thousands of people to maintain the food roads, and only half of them would be able to participate in the war.  This is also the reason why it is difficult to expand territory. When going out to fight, it is difficult for one's own troops to be more powerful than the other side. In addition, the other side has the support of the people, local logistics support, terrain advantages, etc. If you want to win really  It's extremely difficult.  Let¡¯s talk about the simplest one. Suppose a county-level unit has 300,000 people. In theory, it can support 15,000 soldiers. If it goes out to attack other places, the number of troops it can use, taking into account logistics, has to protect grain roads, etc.  On the other hand, the final number of troops that can be used is about 10,000.  But for defense, according to the male to female ratio, mobilizing the local people to stick to the city can mobilize more than 100,000 young men. In addition, including the young men fighting and the strong women transporting grain and grass in the city, the number of troops that can be mobilized can even reach an exaggerated 200,000.  This is what homegrown warfare is all about.  ??However, the Han Dynasty basically never enjoyed this kind of treatment. They often traveled nearly ten thousand miles to fight with others. In this case, the advantages of local personnel could not be used at all.  By the way, this is also why once the Han Dynasty wins, the harvest is basically tens of thousands, and hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep are captured, because winning the Han Dynasty is equivalent to blowing up the opponent's city with a hammer, and you can scrape the ground three feet away.  ??Similarly, if the Han Dynasty loses an army of 10,000 or 20,000, it can only survive 50,000. The reason is that you have gone thousands of miles away to fight, so how can you bring hundreds of thousands of people with you.  In turn, this can also explain why after winning a battle from the early Tang Dynasty to the peak of the Tang Dynasty, the general gain was tens of thousands, and the number of captive cattle and sheep was extremely exaggerated. After a defeat, the loss did not exceed 50,000, or even  In the Battle of Lianheng Ruosi, the largest casualty statistics given by World History and Tang History were only 150,000, including the friendly troops who stabbed the Tang Army in the back.  To put it bluntly, it is because it is too far away. It is so far away that the deployment of troops has become a big problem. The maximum deployment capacity of the main force is only 10,000 people, and no more than 50,000 at most.  After the Tang Dynasty passed the peak period of Xuanzong, it often lost hundreds of thousands. By the Song Dynasty, it easily killed hundreds of thousands. The gains from defeating the opponent usually did not exceed a few thousand. In fact, it already showed that the offensive and defensive positions were changed.  To gain more than 100,000, it is impossible to rely on a head-on battle. Depending on the opponent, there are two types: kill the opponent's city and directly kill the opponent in one pot, and kill the opponent's royal court and kill the opponent in one pot. But these two  They are all negative teaching materials in the art of war about going deep alone and being out of touch with one's own side, but the big guys generally don't read this kind of teaching materials.  Fuwo really wants to talk about combat effectiveness, even if it is limited by the fact that his soldiers have just switched to elite talents, have not fully adapted to the plateau climate, are not familiar with the terrain, etc., but if they really want to fight, only 60,000 to 70,000 Qiang people are strong and strong Fuwo.  Germany can still be beaten. ???????????????????? Can the problem be solved by calling it?  Just like back then, if Rahul didn't have the chain behind him, hundreds of thousands of people would directly fight Guan Yu. Regardless of whether Guan Yu could win, even if he won, it would be absolutely impossible for the Han Dynasty to stand in the middle and lower reaches of the Ganges.  The loss of half a million troops to Kushan was nothing, not even 2%. Relying on the size of the empire, it would take less than two years to recover, but if the Han Dynasty was severely damaged, just  The next wave of troop deployment will take two years.  It is equivalent to saying that Kushanbai got two years of buffer time. If they really fought like this, the Han Dynasty would probably still be fighting the second Brahmas siege.  It can be said that this is the biggest difference between domestic operations and foreign operations. Fulward is now in a situation where he cannot win. He can only win big, not small, let alone draw or lose.  If on the Beigui side, Vowod lost 20,000 people and annihilated the 60,000 Qiang people, it would definitely be a great victory, and merit must be rewarded. But on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Vowod lost 20,000 people and killed them.  ?There are 60,000 people in the Qiang tribe, and every family in the Qiang tribe is plain, but Fulward's strategy is useless!  This is also the reason why the Tang Dynasty killed 70,000 Arabs and lost 15,000 in the Battle of Henglus. The Tang Dynasty recorded that it lost and Dashi recorded that it won.  Because this is not a matter of gains, but a matter of strategic level. After the Tang Dynasty lost 15,000 people, the remaining 10,000 people were no longer enough to maintain the capital of Anxi in the face of the 230,000-strong army.  The territory of the Protectorate extended to the Black Sea, and it did not have the capital to continue to protect the name of Sasanian Persia under the attack of the Great Eclipse.  Although this battle had no impact on the core territories of Arabia and the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty still retained a large territory in Central Asia, it had shaken the Tang Dynasty's overall hegemony in Eurasia and proved that the Tang Dynasty did not  It is not an invincible existence.  After all, the territory of the Tang Dynasty has actually surpassed the limit of imperial rule. It can be maintained mainly because the Tang Dynasty is too strong. It is so powerful that no one dares to challenge it. In addition, its external operations are too amazing. Arabia is at its peak, and it defeats the European continent.  The kind that has no beginning, with a Quran in one hand and a cross in the other, world-class generals one after another.  This is the same as the Tang Dynasty's Anxi Protectorate's six defeats in six battles. The strength invested by the Anxi Protectorate in the early days of Xuanzong only accounted for about one-twentieth of the Tang Dynasty's overall military strength. To put it simply, the Tang army that overwhelmed Arabia was  During the Kaiyuan period, Xuanzong had a total of 20,000 people who defeated the eastward-moving Arabia six times. This is why the Tang Dynasty was able to go to the Black Sea to discuss the border issue with Byzantium, because no one dared to provoke such a monster anymore.  A legion beats a prosperous empire without temper, and there are twenty-five such legions. Is this the same level?  Of course not.  Therefore, the Tang Dynasty only had 24,000 people in Central Asia, but it firmly held the entire Anxi Protectorate. The important reason why I defeated the Arabs with 24,000 people, and it was six out of six battles.  Sheng, you scumbags can't even afford to offend Arabia, but you still dare to offend the giant father!  Under such circumstances, no one in Central Asia dared to disobey the Tang Dynasty's orders. But the defeat of the Tang Dynasty in the battle of Hengrus was actually equivalent to shaking the undefeated golden body, which in turn caused the border areas to begin to have troubles.  idea.  This is like the beacon of American imperialism in the world in 2019. No one thought that the other party could be so bad. This will be the case for American imperialism in 2021. To be honest, the real strength gap between 2019 and 2021 may not be that big.  But the former speaks loudly and the public knows that it is quite powerful when it is blown. In 2021, it is inevitable that it will not be able to blow it.  As for the Song Dynasty, there is nothing to talk about. The Invincible Golden Body is in the hands of others. Tens of thousands of people often break into the city and then defeat tens of thousands and capture hundreds of thousands.  The most amazing thing about the Han Dynasty is that, if you really want to say how fierce it was, it was not very fierce, at least in terms of hard indicators.  The family beat others, and they all won in the end.  It doesn't matter whether he is embarrassed or not. What is important is that he looks extremely ferocious and lacks hard skills, but his aura is extremely strong. At first glance, he looks like a top tycoon. Even if he is down and out, he cannot be underestimated. Tang Dynasty is obviously not good in this aspect.  , it¡¯s a bit too embarrassing.  It¡¯s just like the same squadron, the same beautiful weapons, the combat effectiveness is completely different. The hard indicators are just hard indicators. When attacking others, sometimes what you look at is not the hard indicators.  This makes Fulward look particularly embarrassed now. A mere 40,000 Qiang people are chasing more than 30,000 elite Fulward troops. What does it mean to be frustrated? This is called frustrated.  During this period, Fulward had not thought about turning around and fighting with the Qiang people, but when he thought that he would not be able to implement the strategy if he won, Fulward forcibly resisted this idea and put the overall situation first.  The Qiang people, on the other hand, were killing so hard that they obviously lost twice as much as Fulward, but they pursued them with far greater momentum than Fulward, and since then they have snatched back more than 400,000 yuan.  After the goose, the Qiang people looked at the big goose who had lost a lot of weight but had come back again. His combat effectiveness had improved again, so he filmed him!  Pieces into pieces!  "You run really fast." Lindai spat and stabbed a Guishan prisoner to death. He couldn't understand what the other party was saying, and the souvenir trade was not done well, so he killed him.  "Are you still chasing me? Boss." The leader of Di Ren quickly handed over a glass of Nang wine and said to Lin Dai. Lin Dai's performance recently won the unanimous approval of Qingqiang, Faqiang, and Di Ren. He thought Lindai  With the style of a general, he can lead them to a higher level, so Lindai has been elected as the big leader, and he is waiting for the Han Dynasty to appoint him as a county guard.  That¡¯s right, after Yang Pu¡¯s evil-minded research, they can actually ignore why the man named SimaUnder the leadership of Lang's treacherous ministers, they could form a new county, called Qiangtang County, and then hang it under the leadership of Sichuan and Shu. Chen Deng, the governor of Sichuan and Shu, was a good official.  This idea is very good, and it can break away from Sima Lang's rule. Therefore, a group of Qiang people who think that they have suffered a lot quickly began to recommend their neighbors to become reserve county governors. Of course, there is a high probability that they will not be able to become the county governors. The county governor needs a lot of  The internal affairs capabilities of the Qiang people
