Chapter 1049 Big Map

After saying these words, Zhongjie looked ashamed, and Su You softened his tone: "Our court treats military ministers well and transfers quickly, which is incomparable with literary qualifications."

"The military ministers should not think that the civil servants have been too restrictive. They should turn around and take a look at themselves - have they made achievements that convinced everyone? Are they worthy of the salary given by the court?"

"As a soldier, you must first ask what you have done for the country, not what the country has done for you."

"As the saying goes, every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world."

"So not only do we need to change our culture, but we also need to change our martial arts, and we also need to strive to be the first to change!"

"What can our soldiers do? It's very simple, just to train a strong army and compete with the big powers!"

"But to achieve this goal, we need a grand system, including clear strategic planning, strong logistical support, efficient command structure, and a large number of military talents."

"In a moment we will be able to see what the Military Aircraft Department looks like and what responsibilities it has to fulfill."

"I took the initiative to ask His Majesty for this task, and I also asked Your Majesty to invite you. In addition to paying tribute to the heroes, the burden on your shoulders is not light."

"Dazhi, Xu Xi and Wu Lang are in Yan'an, and they have written a letter saying that Xixia is not enough. I have already written to them to report their strategy and military strength."

"I hope what they say is true, but if it's not true, don't blame me for writing."

Everyone present here is an old Western Army soldier. They all know the combat strength of both sides very well, and they also understand Su You's character. Zhong Ji quickly handed over: "Wu Lang is reckless, Shao Bao, don't blame me."

Su You sighed and said: "Thousands of troops are easy to get, but one general is hard to find. I originally had high hopes for Wu Lang... The Military Aircraft Department also has a function, which is to allow His Majesty to have a calm view of the national, financial and military power of the Song Dynasty."

Accurate judgment and an overall understanding of future national strategies.”

"Let's not talk about understanding others first, let's understand ourselves first."

Several veterans nodded silently. It seemed that their visit to Beijing was not just for enjoying the blessings.

After breakfast, Su You led them to Wuqi Temple.

Wu Qi was considered one of the ten philosophers of Wuchengwang Temple in the Tang Dynasty. As a result, at the beginning of the founding of the Song Dynasty, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin visited the Wuchengwang Temple and looked at the famous generals painted in the two galleries.

What's the point of enjoying this?" He ordered people to leave.

Then Zuo Shiyi Zhi Zhizhi made Gao Xi Shangshu, arguing that Wang Sengbian could not die well and should not be among those worthy of sharing.

Therefore, Taizu ordered Zhang Zhao, the Minister of Civil Affairs, and Dou Yi, the Minister of Works, to make a special ruling and ensure that his achievements were always flawless.

Later he was promoted to Han Guanying, later Han Gengchun, Wang Ba, Ji Zun, Ban Chao, Jin Wanghun, Zhou Fang, Song Shen Qingzhi, Later Wei Li Chong, Fu Yong, Northern Qi Duan Shao, Later Zhou Li Bi, Tang Qin Shubao, Zhang Gongjin, Tang

Twenty-three persons were Xiu Jing, Hun Yao, Pei Du, Li Guangyan, Li Su, Zheng Wei, Liang Ge Congzhou, Zhou Dewei of the Later Tang Dynasty, and Fu Cunshen;

Retired from Wei, Wu Qi, Qi Sun Bin, Zhao Lianpo, Han Xin, Peng Yue, Zhou Yafu, Later Han Dynasty Duan Jiming, Wei Deng Ai, Jin Tao Kan, Shu Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Jin Du Yuankai, Northern Qi Murong Shaozong, Liang Wang Seng Bian, Chen Wu Mingche, Sui Yang Su

, He Ruobi, Shi Wansui, Tang Li Guangbi, Wang Xiaojie, Zhang Qiqiu and Guo Yuanzhen were twenty-two people.

After seeing it, Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty made some supplements and ordered the statue of Guan Zhong, the Prime Minister of Qi, to be erected in the hall, and then ordered Wu Qi, the prefect of Wei Xihe, to be painted in the verandah.

Liang Zhouhan, the secretary of the Langzhi History Museum at that time, said: "All the famous generals are heroes, and they are eager to point out their flaws. Who can be considered innocent? Once you are removed from the divine position, it seems inappropriate to complain about the faults of different generations and blame the evil of the ancients.

I am confused."

Don’t report it.

However, Wu Qi's views on the art of war believe that politics and military must be combined, civility must be cultivated internally, and war preparations must be made externally. Both must be given equal emphasis and cannot be neglected.

On the premise of paying equal attention to politics and military affairs, we must also pay attention to political education, govern the army and the people with Tao, righteousness, etiquette, and benevolence, adopt a prudent attitude towards war, and oppose militancy.

These war theories are also very consistent with today's governance requirements. Therefore, although Wu Qi's status has been reduced, his military skills are still a must-read for Jinshi.

Wu Qi was a Wei general. Although he died in Chu, his descendants built a tomb in Daliang City for him.

During the Warring States Period, Daliang, the capital of Wei State, was today's Kaifeng. Next to this tomb, an ancestral hall was later built, which later became today's Wuqi Temple.

The famous general of the Warring States Period had an unquestionable status in the minds of several veteran generals, so everyone first went to offer incense to Wu Qi, and then came to a nearby courtyard.

There were no signs in the yard, but it was heavily guarded. There were New Army guards on both sides of the door. When they saw a few people arriving, the guards on both sides suddenly stood at attention. They held the magic gun with a bayonet in their left hand and performed a chest-thumping salute with their right hand.

Su You returned the military salute and entered the courtyard with several senior generals. Turning around the screen wall, he saw countless bookkeepers coming and going in the courtyard.

A scribe and a lieutenant-general came up and saluted: "Cai Jing, the Liaison Office of the Military Aircraft Department, Tong Guan, the Secretary of the Military Aircraft Department, have met all the generals."

Zhe Jizu looked at the house numbers hanging on the two rooms, which were divided into four halls: logistics, education, liaison, and miscellaneous affairs. The names of the principals and other personnel were also written. He couldn't help but nodded: "It is much clearer than the Ministry of War and the Privy Council."

Su You smiled and said: "Let them be busy, let's go to the inner hall to talk first."

Passing through the courtyard on the first floor and entering the office area on the second floor, there is the Machinery Department on one side and the Strategy Department on the other. The number of people is obviously much smaller, but the atmosphere is obviously much colder.

The bottom is the main hall. On both sides of the main hall are the dormitories and the capital hall.

Entering the main hall, there were no plaques or paintings of auspicious animals that symbolized majesty in other yamen, but a large picture came face to face, which made several veteran generals excited.

"Complete Map of Kyushu Kunyu"!

This is the biggest secret of the Song Dynasty today. Su You led the scientific and engineering talents and spent twenty-seven years perseveringly. He combined it with Shen Kuo's "Tianxia Map of Prefectures and Counties" and added longitude and latitude measurements to draw this map.

Accurate map.

The map has a scale of one hundred thousand to one and occupies an entire wall of the capital hall.

The map includes the entire territory of the Song Dynasty, as well as Dali, Qingtang, Xixia, Liao, Korea, Japan, the South China Sea Islands, and parts of other countries.

All states, counties, mountains, rivers, islands, and passes are clearly visible on the map.

It is also drawn from warm to cold colors from high to low, so that people can see the height of the terrain at a glance, and the passages and gullies in the mountains are clearly distinguishable.

Even the roads are divided into three types: blue and white thick solid lines, medium solid lines and thin solid lines.

There are also various illustrations and explanations in the lower left corner.

Guo Kui saw the mystery at a glance. One hundred and fifty miles from Zhengzhou to Kaifeng were divided into fifteen sections. One section of the road represented a distance of ten miles. He couldn't help but praise: "This map is so exquisite that it can be compared to

Called a military treasure!"

Zhong Ji looked at the mountains from Yongxing Military Road to Hehuang, his eyes a little wet: "For generations, we have fought bloody battles just to defend several gateways in the northwest. Looking at this picture today, it is not a waste of effort."

Zhe Jizu looked at the protruding part on the map that was flanked by the Xijing Road of the Liao Kingdom and the Shenyong Army Division in the left wing of the Xixia Dynasty. There were Fengzhou, Fuzhou and Linzhou that the Zhe family had guarded for generations. He also sighed with emotion: "Back then, Li Jiqian sent

He sent a spy to Liao to lure him into invading the border, Liao general Han Dewei led a large army to invade, and my grandfather Yu Qinggong went to war despite being ill."

"Later, his illness worsened, and my great-grandmother sent someone to take him home to recuperate. The family ancestor said: 'I have received the favor of the country, but the border bandits have not been eliminated. How can we abandon our soldiers and take care of ourselves when we are facing a powerful enemy? He died in the army.

Soldiers have their duty, and I hope my mother will not worry about her. Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot have both ends." After saying this, I burst into tears and died in the army the next day. He was only thirty-eight years old."

"In September of the second year of Xianping, the rebel Qiang from Hexi led Zhao Baoji to Wanhu Valley in Koulin Prefecture and entered Songhua Village."

"My uncle Wei Changgong and his uncle Weixin Gong led their troops from Uncle Hai Chaogong to resist the war in the city. The Xia soldiers were very energetic, so my uncle led his troops to fight back hard."

"He was struck by an arrow and fell from his horse, but was rescued by his subordinates. Hai Chaogong and Weixin Gong died in the battle."

"In less than a month, Xia's army invaded again. My uncle ignored his pain and sorrow and set up an ambush at Mijing Peak to defeat them."

"In the seventh year of Dazhong Xiangfu, my uncle was ill and was traveling in the wind and sand to protect food. He died of illness on the way. He was only thirty-seven years old."

"Since then, Western Xia Dynasty has been strong and raids have often occurred. Counting from my grandfather, in the eighty years since my grandfather, there have been hundreds of battles in Lin Mansion, large and small, and countless fathers, brothers, and children have been killed and their bones buried in Quye River and Tumao River.

"

After saying that, he glared at Zhong Hui who was sighing on the side: "Xiao Wuzi is so arrogant! Look at this map, how can the Xia people be easy to live with?!"

"The Henan Army, the Baotai Army, the Jingsai Army, the Jianing Army, the Xiangyou Army, and the Zuoxiang Shenyong Army occupy many favorable positions. Now the Song Dynasty has more than enough to protect itself but not enough to attack. How dare you make such nonsense?
