Chapter 1894 Learning Direction
The current state of Li Mo is exactly one of the purposes of Haihan's official organization to edit and write this set of books. Instead of getting the answers to the questions, they will realize more new problems beyond their cognition.
Of course, Haihan's rapid rise did not rely entirely on military power, it was just one of the many means in the hands of the crossing people, but in the eyes of outsiders like Li Luo, the effect of military means is indeed the most intuitive. Coupled with the incomplete understanding of Haihan, it is easy to fall into the misunderstanding of "military means are omnipotent".
But Li Luo himself also knows that this may not be the key to solving all problems. If Haihan can really solve all problems by military means, then why spend so many resources to establish trade routes, and specifically find some sparsely populated areas to develop overseas colony.
Then Li Luo realized a problem. This set of books described in detail a series of advanced operations of the Haihan people after they landed in Sanya, but hardly mentioned the reasons why these methods were implemented.That is to say, readers can only know what Haihan has done, but they cannot know the reasons for making these plans and means.If there is no accident, the follow-up part that I have not read must be the same. After reading it, readers can only admire Haihan's bold and efficient methods, but if they want to emulate it, there is no way to learn, because only Haihan's senior management knows. When should these special measures be implemented.
This is also one of the wonderful points of this set of books. After reading it, people will not have the erroneous concept of "I can do it too", but will induce readers to work hard in the direction of how to emulate Haihan's successful way .When readers find that their knowledge is not enough to understand and imitate these means, they either have the idea of giving up, or go to Haihan to seek opportunities for in-depth learning.
And Li Luo belongs to the latter group. The road of studying abroad has already been paved under his feet early. He seems to have the opportunity to touch the things he wants to learn after he arrives in Sanya. He has no reason to give up.It's just that what content should be learned from Hai Han is the most beneficial to the future development of North Korea, but Li Luo still does not have a clear goal at the moment.
At first, he thought about military affairs, but leading troops to fight was too exciting for him, a layman who only watched the excitement, and this time he specially selected a group of young and strong officers with excellent military qualities from China to learn military knowledge , there is really no need for him, the heir to the throne, to join the ranks of learning how to dance spears and sticks.
As for the fields of navigation and trade, Li Wei is relatively not that interested. He subconsciously believes that he should not engage in these clumsy or vulgar jobs in his own capacity.
Perhaps only matters related to state governance are suitable for his status. After all, he will take over the throne sooner or later. The good ways of governing the country learned from Haihan may help maintain the stability of North Korean society.But the question is, will the training content for studying abroad arranged by Haihan really have such content?
When discussing the arrangement of studying abroad with senior officials of Haihan in Seoul, Li Wei was also present. At that time, the two parties did not explicitly talk about the content of "governing the country" in the course arranged for him to study abroad. Haihan believed that Students should be taught in accordance with their aptitude. When Li Min arrives in Sanya, he will arrange corresponding training courses according to his interests.That is to say, Hai Han gave Li Min the full right to choose independently, and the North Korean side agreed to Hai Han's proposal to study abroad largely because of this.
But Li Luo never thought that this point that his side had taken a fancy to at the beginning would become a problem that troubled him instead.Before that, he was more optimistic, thinking that with his intelligence, he might be able to dabble in many fields in two years, learn all the advanced things of Haihan, and copy the original version after returning to China.
However, after visiting several colonies ruled by Haihan, Li Mo is no longer so optimistic about his learning ability. Even if senior officials of Haihan are willing to show him and provide detailed explanations, he still can't figure out many things. Understand its principle.Learning can be learned, but it is difficult to say whether it can be mastered.
Secondly, Lee Min now has to consider the actual needs of his country. What to learn during his study abroad can best help North Korea’s development. This is one of the issues he feels confused at the moment.With limited time, it is impossible for him to learn everything, and before going abroad, Li Jing also told him that the subjects he chooses at that time should not be too ambitious, and should be suitable for his own country as the first choice, instead of spending two years learning everything that is useless Earth's dragon slaying technique.
"Perhaps after discussing with Li Xi after arriving in Sanya, there should be a more suitable choice." Li Luo, who can't find his way now, can only pin his hopes on Li Xi, the only Haihantong in his country.Before going abroad, Li Yu once said that he should discuss with Li Xi more when he is indecisive, maybe he also thought of the current situation.
This day's dinner, You Yihan didn't show up again because he had other business, but he just sent his secretary over to have dinner with Li Luo.Li Luo didn't pay attention to eating, he hurriedly finished his dinner and returned to the station, continuing to light up the lamp and read.Although he knew that the book might not contain what he was looking for, he couldn't help but want to know more about the historical events of Haihan.
The beginning of the second volume of "The Rise of the South China Sea" is the combat experience of the Haihan Armed Forces in Annan, which was still based on the militia at that time. Although the force was limited, but because of its excellent equipment, it played the role of a surprise soldier on the battlefield at that time.
Almost at the same time, Haihan opened up two maritime trade routes between Guangzhou and Fujian, and set up an office in Guangzhou. In the middle of the year, it secretly dispatched troops to Lijiazhuang, Panyu, to help its business partner Li Jifeng repel the bandits. Fighting on Dangan Island at the mouth of the Pearl River, expelled a group of pirates from Shibazhi.
By the second half of 1628, Haihan's foreign wars continued, mainly in Annan to assist the northern court in fighting.In August, they attacked Hoi An City, and in September they attacked the Zhengjiang defense line. The participation of the Haihan Army allowed the Northern Army to play triumphant songs all the way, and the front continued to advance to the south.At the same time, Haihan also exchanged a large number of immigrants from Annan through military assistance.The Portuguese were overwhelmed by the force of the Haihan army in Annan, and they also took the initiative to express their goodwill to Haihan in the second half of the year, choosing to establish diplomatic relations and cooperation with Haihan.
The Haihan army, which has been fighting for almost a whole year, will deal with the pirate Liu Xiang's armed fleet in the last battle at the end of the year.The battle at the Pearl River Estuary caused almost all of Liu Xiang's main warships to sink into the sand. As a result, Shibazhi lost control of the waters of the Pearl River Estuary, and Haihan took over control instead.
Li Min finished reading the second book in one breath. During the period, his subordinates brought him tea and water, but he didn't know it at all, and was completely immersed in the world of the book.
He roughly counted the battles that the Haihan army fought in overseas regions in this year. There were at least six large-scale battles, mainly concentrated on the coastline of Annan Kingdom and the Pearl River Basin in Guangdong.The characteristics of the Haihan Army's amphibious operations in coastal areas were already highlighted at that time.
North Korea's war this year has completely consumed the national treasury, and Li Mo still knows how much money the war costs.Haihan had such financial resources to support its frequent overseas military operations back then. Li Wei could only link this performance with the maritime trade routes operated by Haihan.Although the details of the trade at that time are not mentioned in the book, it is presumed that Annan, Fujian, and Guangdong have all become Haihan's trading partners and provided him with a source of funds for the war.
At the same time, Li Lu also realized another thing. The other allied troops who sent troops to North Korea with Hai Han this year, almost all of them belonged to forces that formed a close relationship with Hai Han during this year.With the military cooperation that has lasted for several years, it is no wonder that these troops can cooperate well with the Haihan Army on the battlefield.
However, while the Haihan army was attacking everywhere, Haihan had not even occupied the entire Hainan Island during this period, but only kept its main control area in the southeastern part of Hainan Island.If you compare its record with the area under its rule, Li Wei believes that this is enough to make any country's army feel ashamed.In particular, Daming remained silent after being occupied by Haihan, and the Haihan army actually sent troops to the inland areas of Guangdong to suppress bandits for Daming, which showed that there was a huge problem in Daming's control over the southern coastal areas.
The content of this second book vaguely fits Li Wei's previous idea of "solving all problems with force". Haihan cleared a large area of sea from the Pearl River Estuary to the Beibu Gulf with several battles, showing his strength to various forces. muscle.
But obviously, such an operation method is of little reference to North Korea. If North Korea has the ability to bloom more overseas, then this year, there is no need to spend a lot of money to ask Haihan to send troops to resist the Qing army for itself.
What Li Min thinks is worth learning is not Haihan's fighting style, but seizing the opportunity to establish a solid diplomatic relationship with many parties.With a few more allies, Haihan also has a few more trading partners, which may be more beneficial than military.On the other hand, looking at my own country, the countries that established diplomatic relations before Haihan were Daming and Houjin, and the diplomatic relationship with Houjin was barely reached by people pushing their heads to the ground.He once heard senior officials of Haihan claim that there are many alliance partner countries in the South China Sea. If North Korea can have more powerful and reliable partner countries like Haihan, then maybe there will be no need to worry about the invasion of the Qing Dynasty in the future.
Of course, several allies who accompanied Haihan to North Korea this time have shown great interest in establishing diplomatic relations with North Korea.Even on the Fujian side, Xu Xinsu personally expressed his attitude that he is willing to maintain close exchanges with North Korea in trade, military affairs, and culture.If nothing else, these parties will become North Korea's partner countries in the future—or North Korea will thus enter the international alliance built by Hai Han.
Li Luo didn't know how long it took him to finish reading the second book, but he really felt a little hungry. The food on the table had already cooled down, but he didn't care, and he didn't bother to bark anymore. I took it to heat it up, and then I ate it.The food replenished his calories, and his sleepiness also subsided a lot. He planned to fall asleep after eating, but when he saw the stack of books on the table, his mind became active again.
"Forget it, I'll go to sleep after reading two or three chapters." Li Wei sighed, adjusted the length of the wick of the windproof oil lamp on the table, and thought that it's time to go to sleep after burning this small wick, and then picked up "The Rise of the South China Sea" The third volume of .
Haihan in 1629 still started with war, and participated in the Annan Civil War from the beginning of the year. At this time, the local war has entered the most critical stage. The southern rebels gathered their troops to the front line of Hue, hoping to use a strong city to resist The offensive of the northern army.This tactic has indeed achieved certain results. Even with the participation of the Haihan Army, the attack on Hue City can hardly be described as smooth.From the attack on Hue City in late February to the end of the Hue Battle at the end of March, it took more than a month to end the battle here.And if it weren't for the direct participation of the Haihan Army, it would be really difficult to predict the direction of the First World War in Hue. At least the northern court would have to invest more troops and time to hope to end the war.
The end of the Battle of Hue also symbolized the end of the Annan War, Haihan finally put his energy back to Hainan Island, and started the Shilu Iron Mine Project in June.Regarding this large project that has invested thousands of laborers from the beginning, the book introduces its general situation and the significance of mining the Shilu Iron Mine in more detail. In the past, he didn't calm down to think carefully about Haihan's intention to develop a large iron mine at this time.
In the second half of the year, Haihan launched two more overseas port construction projects, one is Da Nang in Annan, and the other is Hong Kong where Li Luo is currently located.Finally, he read the place he knew in the book, and Li Luo cheered up again.
At that time, Hong Kong and its surrounding areas were still nominally the territory of the Ming Dynasty. Haihan also used many means to gradually squeeze out the Daming Navy who was stationed in this area symbolically, and then stationed its own armed fleet to take over. Control of the sea in this area.However, the history of this period in the book is relatively brief, and its position is obviously biased towards Haihan, saying that the Ming army stationed there "ignored pirates, did not do military affairs, and fished the common people", while Haihan represented an image of justice On the stage, in order to maintain the tranquility of the region and the safety of the country's merchant ships, troops were stationed in this area.
Of course, Li Lu would not fully believe such an argument. He believed that there must have been a lot of conflicts between you and me during the period. In the end, Daming had no choice but to take Haihan, so he gave up this place.After all, according to the book, the naval forces of the Ming Dynasty in this area are useless, and many places only retain the establishment system to facilitate the army to pay for it. The Haihan Army is completely different. At the end of this year, the Haihan Navy's The main battleship Majesty was officially commissioned, and it was also the most powerful warship in the South China Sea at this time.
