Revisiting Future Path

Chapter 569: Industry (5)

569th Industry (five)

Fortunately, at the critical moment when the defeated army of Jinan County was about to collapse, the Ocean Alliance made a wrong move.

However, the Ocean Alliance used hunger tactics to become addicted. In order to further aggravate the food crisis of the Alliance of the Sacred Gates, they abruptly tried to expel all the people in the occupied areas to the territory of the Alliance of the Sacred Gates. If Jueshengmen accepts these hungry people, the hungry people will consume the only food reserves of the Holy Door Alliance; if Jueshengmen refuses to accept these hungry people, the Ocean Alliance can morally accuse Wei Dongsheng of hypocrisy while using a little grain as bait. Drive the refugees to harm Yuzhou and the northwestern part of Qingzhou.

The Ocean Alliance never expected that Wei Dongsheng was least afraid of such brutal tactics.

Before the Xianbei Wei State of the Tuoba tribe split into the Eastern Wei and the Western Wei, Wei Dongsheng did everything possible to find the whereabouts of Gao Huan and Yu Wentai. It's a pity that the fate is tricky. Gao Huan first died heroically under the name of Guo Huan, and later served as the intelligent animal demon clan under the name of He Huan. Wei Dongsheng searched through the list of immortals and failed to find him.

Looking for Gao Huan and Yu Wentai failed, Wei Dongsheng silently prepared for the future with the worst.

Wei Dongsheng knew the power of the Mandate of Heaven's punishment, and quietly started the grain reserve strategy as early as 530.

But food is not ore, and storage technology is extremely difficult. Under normal conditions, wheat can be stored for 5 to 7 years, rice can be stored for 5 years, and corn can be stored for 3 to 5 years. If it is extended to more than 10 years, the problem of aging and deterioration will become more and more serious.

Second, except for the slightly barren northeast, northern China is definitely not a food-rich region. Moreover, since Jushenmen took office, the national mortality rate has fallen sharply, and the population size has expanded rapidly. It is difficult for the country to draw a huge amount of food for reserves.

The third most critical one is that the scope of the disaster is too wide. Xuzhou to Qingzhou, Yuzhou to Jizhou, Binzhou to Shuozhou, Youzhou to Yanzhou, Xizhou to Congzhou, not only are there famines everywhere, but every year in the past and the next few decades will be unavoidable. There is widespread famine. Gao Qi started in 550 and ended in 577, a total of 27 years; Yuwen Zhou started in 557 and ended in 581, a total of 24 years. When the grain gap is as high as 50 or 60 million per capita, and when a large-scale famine lasts for decades, what about the perfect grain storage system?

Wei Dongsheng foresaw the embarrassment of the Supreme Sacred Sect Alliance.

Wei Dongsheng also foresaw the defeat of Pengcheng County.

Now that it was foreseen, Wei Dongsheng must be prepared: the battle for the fate can be defeated, and the concept of the Absolute Sacred Gate cannot fail. Therefore, the Sixth Northern Expedition 20 years ago had not yet ended, Wei Dongsheng persuaded the Jueshengmen high-level officials to quietly launch the "200 million militia strategy." The great militia strategy is the strategy of all the people as soldiers, desperately creating simple and easy-to-use infantry firecrackers, organ firecrackers, grenades, and light mortars, and at least 200 million militiamen are armed within the western Kyushu region.

In 547, Wei Dongsheng judged that the mission of "finding and cooperating with Gao Huan and Yuwentai" had failed, and ordered the grassroots of Jueshengmen to form a militia with a total of one million people in various states and counties. The Ocean Alliance and the people of Kyushu simply think that one million militia regiments are one million militia regiments, and can only play the role of one million militia regiments at most. Only the top leaders of the Sacred Gate knew that the purpose of forming the militia was not to drive them to the front as cannon fodder, but to train one million grassroots militia officers. Once it comes to the start of the grand strategy that requires 200 million militiamen, one militiaman pulls ten people, which means 10 million militiamen; pulls ten people, which means 100 million militiamen.

Take the infantry firecrackers as an example. The Absolute Sacred Gate used the 200 million infantry firecrackers produced by the Sixth Northern Expedition and the Seventh Northern Expedition of the Resistance to the Ocean Alliance. In the past two decades, with the steady progress of ordnance manufacturing technology and the gradual reduction of manufacturing costs, the subsequent production of infantry guns has been improved several times. However, in order to meet the 200 million militia strategy, follow-up improvements are kept to a certain extent as much as possible, and parts must be exchanged to improve the efficiency of the militia without logistics operations.

As mentioned earlier, the immortal has the tactics of the immortal, and a 20-level immortal with a fist like a shelling and carrying a gun is simply joking. However, the 200 million militia strategy is geared to the largest number of non-immortals. Non-immortals in this world are no different from normal humans in the real world. Real-world firearms and weapons can be reproduced without barriers.

The use of real-world firearms by the non-immortal militia is indeed not an opponent of the immortal army. Imagine such a picture, with several machine guns and several crypts, and the non-immortal militia can lock the forward path. But when they encountered immortals above level 10, the immortal fighters brought light work around to the fortresses, smashed the fortresses with one punch, and all threats were immediately cleared.

After all, the militia is just a militia.

However, the value of the militia cannot be underestimated.

By 556, the total number of immortals in the Western Regions of Kyushu had indeed skyrocketed to 500,000. Regardless of whether the Supreme Sacred Gate Alliance or the Ocean Alliance, they can lavishly form a regular army with all members of the longevity. The 5th level immortal can crush Dongfang Undefeated, and the higher the level, let alone avoid bullets in advance, carry the aura to wrap themselves, and hardly resist bullets. With militias against the longevity troops, most of the time they hit rocks with pebbles.

However, there are only 500,000 immortals in the Western Regions of Kyushu.

The total population of the Western Regions of Kyushu is as high as 370 million, and the longevity regime still needs a large number of non-immortal grassroots officials to maintain stability. Furthermore, the greater the number of immortals, the more the individual immortals depreciate. Many immortals are often lower than level 5 because of the lack of opportunities for killing and upgrading. Once all the people carry infantry firecrackers, organ firecrackers, grenades, light mortars and other militia weapons, even if the Ocean Alliance has captured some counties, it will not be easy to establish a new ruling system that is different from the sacred gate.

When Pengcheng County showed signs of a major defeat, the 200 million militia strategy was already on the agenda. Jue Sage Gate was initially afraid that the rebellious and hungry people would use the 200 million militia strategy for opportunism, so it carefully studied when the 200 million militia strategy was officially launched. Unexpectedly, the Ocean Alliance was eager for quick success and quick gain at this time, and even deliberately tried to drive the hungry people in the occupied area and consume the ammunition of the Holy Gate Alliance.

The Ocean Alliance is dead!

The Sacred Gate has continued to publicize for hundreds of years, and the majesty of the destiny is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. When the people encounter difficulties, they want to compromise and surrender. If the Ocean Alliance kindly reassures the people in the enemy-occupied areas and urgently mobilizes food to improve material supply, I am afraid that most people will accept Gao Qi's fate. At that time, the Absolute Sage Gate can only take advantage of the flaws in the popular system of immortal enslavement of non-immortals in southern China, and give free weapons to the people in the occupied areas to encourage them to resist feudal serf exploitation.

The Absolute Sacred Gate never expected that the Ocean Alliance would die so as to deprive the people in the occupied areas of the hope of survival.

The Absolute Sacred Gate seized the wrong move of the Ocean Alliance and launched the 200 million militia strategy as quickly as possible, sending countless weapons to the desperate and hungry people. In just a few months, southern Qingzhou and southern Yuzhou turned into an ocean of people’s war. Angry hungry people in the occupied areas rushed towards their enemies with guns.

As a result, the Ocean Alliance fell into a quagmire.

The longevity troops are indeed strong, but many ants kill the elephants, and they are exhausted when they are tired. Besides, the militiamen are aiming to survive and protect their homes. They are mostly aimed at sneak attacks by the logistics units of the Ocean Alliance, and they rarely confront the Longevity units head-on. Only when the immortal troops tried to requisition their only living food on the spot did these hungry militiamen fight head-on with desperate methods.

Wang Meng realized that it was not good and hurriedly asked the Ocean Alliance to retreat.

However, this is beyond their control.

The hungry people dragged the Ocean Alliance into the quagmire. At the same time, Wei Dongsheng personally commanded the defeated troops of Jinan County, Liang County, and emergency reinforcements to launch a counterattack. In just three months, the Supreme Sacred Gate Alliance recovered Pengcheng County and surrounded the main force of the Ocean Alliance between Pengcheng County and Liang County.

As a result, the Supreme Sacred Gate Alliance lost first and then won, winning a hearty victory.

Except for a few high-level immortals who hurriedly evacuated, Jushenmen almost completely wiped out the main force of the Ocean Alliance's seventh Northern Expedition. The main force of the Ocean Alliance was lost, and there was emptiness south of the Huai River. Wei Dongsheng decisively asked the frontline troops to pursue the victory and cross the Huai River to attack Jiankang. Unfortunately, Huang Shilong urgently dispatched countless ocean monster races to guard the Yangtze River, and the pursuit troops of the Supreme Sacred Gate Alliance had to regret to stop at the north of the Yangtze River.

In the real world history, the Liang Kingdom of the Xiao clan collapsed across the board due to the Hou Jing Rebellion. The Western Wei Dynasty seized the fertile land west of the Han River, and the Northern Qi Dynasty invaded the fertile land north of the Yangtze River. Reflected in the destiny mechanism, the destiny in the Huainan area already belongs to the Gao family's Qi State. Soon after Jushenmen pushed the front line of the northern and southern borders to the north of the Yangtze River, Gao Yang deprived the Huainan area of ​​destiny on behalf of the Gao family.

Huainan is included in the scope of the Mandate of Heaven's punishment, and the future will surely be aligned with Yuzhou, Qingzhou and other places. Therefore, it has nothing to do with justice, and the people of Huainan collectively resent the rule of the Holy Gate. For Absolute Sacred Sect, once a fatal error occurs in Huainan's policy, Huainan may evolve into a quagmire that drags down the main force of the Eastern Front of Absolute Sacred Sect Alliance.

Of course, the benefits are obvious.

When preparing for the Seventh Northern Expedition, the logistics supply of the 150,000 immortal troops of the Ocean Alliance was concentrated in the Huainan area. The Supreme Sacred Gate counterattacked to seize Huainan, which meant that the ordnance and grain that Wang Meng had painstakingly prepared for many years had all become the possession of the Supreme Sage Gate. Furthermore, there is no destiny to punish disasters in the Huainan area, and the grain reserves of the county treasury are rich. Transporting these precious grains to the Huaibei area for disaster relief, the Supreme Sacred Gate Alliance can at least last another year.

In addition, after the Ocean Alliance invaded the counties in Huaibei, whether it was expelling the hungry people in the first half of the time, or getting into the quagmire in the second half of the time, it directly or indirectly caused a large number of casualties to civilians. To say something that does not fit the positive energy, these innocent people who were killed have also virtually alleviated the food pressure of the Supreme Sacred Gate Alliance.

The short term is positive, but the long term is dark. This is the new situation after the Penengcheng County counterattack.
