The straight-line distance between Yunzhou and Fengzhou is about 500 kilometers, that is, the distance from the left corner of the Yellow River to the right corner.

In later generations, it was probably like driving for five or six hours, but in this era, it is thousands of miles away...... But I can't prevent [Wujimen] from having a fleet of steamers!

After receiving the information that the Chai Shao Turks came to help, Bai Yuqi settled the affairs of Yuanlou Town, took his disciples on the steam ship used for transportation, and went straight to Yunzhou in a bare state.

I have to say that there are [Tiangongmen] all kinds of unscientific construction methods, which are more terrifying than the industrial age of later generations, and shipbuilding is faster than dumplings.

The only limit to the speed of shipbuilding is the output of the more elaborate steam turbines, which in turn are limited by the speed of mining.

During the time when Bai Yuqi put on a vest and rushed to Fengzhou.

The shipyard under the name of [Tiangongmen] not only provided enough ships for the "Inland Water Caoyun Joint Stock Company" to transport grain south.

Moreover, he used the surplus production capacity to create a private fleet belonging to [Wujimen] to cooperate with Bai Yuqi's "Jiuli Brothers Rescue Plan".

Before sending beef and mutton to the Tang Army, the Lao Army brought it over by the way when transporting supplies to the rear through this fleet.

Although due to the water conditions of the Yellow River at this time, the speed of steam turbines was a little slower.

But it can't resist it, no matter the wind or the water, it can travel 24 hours a day, even if it runs an average of 20 kilometers an hour, it can run four or five hundred kilometers a day.

So Bai Yuqi, who was too lazy to build a road to Yunzhou by himself, naturally chose to take a comfortable boat over...... He wouldn't admit that it was too hard to cast spells and build roads in the [Ao Neng Vacuum] environment, and he didn't have the pleasure of dying obsessive-compulsive disorder, so he didn't bother to do it!

It's nice to take a boat, just sit on it and wait for it to move on its own.

And in order to speed up the voyage, he also released a [wind-making technique] on the sail from time to time, and the steamship that blew in a daze soared out of the speed of the ships of later generations.

Adding sails to a steamship is mainly to save fuel, so that it can run faster when the wind is downwind, which is a simple design.

But when he met Bai Yuqi, who mastered all kinds of unscientific spell skills, the sail he installed became a good tool for him to open the steamboat.

The directional airflow created by [Wind Making], under Bai Yuqi's legal control ability, can lock the area of the sail, and the headwind can give you the effect of blowing a tailwind.

And if it weren't for the fear that the wind would be too strong, the one-piece King Kong bamboo hull would not be able to carry it, Bai Yuqi felt that adding wings to the hull would be able to blow the boat into the sky!

In this way, when the time comes, you can consider adding a crew member who specializes in [wind making] to the fleet, because the speed is not enough to make up for the wind, and it can improve a certain shipping efficiency.

Of course, if you think about it, if you want to improve the efficiency of shipping, you can not only solve the problem by increasing the speed of ships, but also need to repair the river, which is no less than building a land transportation network.

Bai Yuqi, who had experienced a runabout in later generations, didn't think how fast the boat was with the [Wind Making] downwind buff.

But the speed at which the bow of the ship was cocked scared all the old boatmen recruited, and they didn't do it all the way.

The steamboat, which could sail against the current on its own without oars, was incomprehensible enough to the old boatman who had rowed a small fishing boat in his life.

was added by Bai Yuqi with this tailwind BUFF, and he was stunned to give Bai Yuqi all the way to contribute faith.

Although he was very sympathetic to his plight, for the sake of his +666, Bai Yuqi had no choice but to raise the [Wind Making Technique] by another wind level, and he soared to Yunzhou in half a day.

Facing the curious expressions of Chai Shao and Xue Wanjun, who rushed to greet them, Bai Yuqi said expressionlessly: "It's okay, I'm used to spitting and spitting!"

It's too embarrassing, you can vomit all over the ground when you take a car, and you will vomit all over the ground when you take a boat, and if I get out of the plane, are you still ready to spiral in the sky?

Chai Shao and other Tang generals didn't dare to ask more, but while sending people to take care of a few bigwigs who couldn't live anymore, they explained to Bai Yuqi the military situation in Yunzhou.

"General Chai doesn't have to be polite!"

"How to march and fight, naturally, is based on the strategy of generals such as you!"

"Nowadays, this 'mercenary system' is only the beginning, and the organized 'mercenaries' are not so much soldiers as armed villagers. ”

"Whether it is discipline, combat power, or obedience, they are far inferior to the elite soldiers under the command of the general. ”

"If you need to escort baggage, transport grain, inquire about information, follow the army to chase downwind, or something, you can leave it to the mercenaries to be responsible. ”

Bai Yuqi smiled politely and said: "So you can fight how you want, the mercenary guild side will not give you a finger at the army, if you need help, the general and the winged heavenly general and the left and right spirit will discuss with each other." ”

When Chai Shao and Xue Wanjun heard this, they couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

The identity of this Xuanqi Xingjun is really sensitive, and they were originally ordered to assist him in the "Jiuli Rescue Plan".

The attack on the Liang division was only temporarily caused by the change of situation, so I had to refer to his opinion in this regard, but I was worried that he would interfere in the military strategy indiscriminately.

In addition, this person's methods are really scary.

Arrived in Fengzhou less than two months ago, it did not cost the Tang Dynasty a single soldier, a penny or a grain.

As if playing, the Turkic steppe was emptied, and more than a million laborers and millions of mules, horses, cattle and sheep were harvested.

By the way, he also built a north avenue and a round building town at the border of Yongzhen, which is not to say that there is no one to come, but also absolutely unprecedented.

The most terrifying thing is that I heard that only this trip [Wujimen] has made tens of thousands of profits, and I am afraid that it is worth paying taxes in Datang for decades, which is really incredible!

No one dared to inquire about the detailed number, but from 10,000 dragoons alone, he owed the Mercenary Guild 50 million yuan in advance expenses.

You can judge how much they have earned this time, and the millions of Turkic laborers and millions of cattle are equivalent to giving them to [Wujimen] for nothing.

Whether it's the Dragoon Guards or those civilian mercenary organizations, not to mention working for the [Mercenary Guild] for nothing this time, I still owe a lot of debt!

But the problem is that after this divine operation of Emperor Wuji, the Tang Dynasty not only disintegrated the Turkic plague without spending a single soldier, a soldier, a penny or a grain, but also picked up a piece of borderless land that was still expanding...... The Turks have been captured, isn't that a borderland?

Therefore, the Tang monarchs and ministers in the court all looked confused, and they couldn't understand whether this transaction was lost or earned?

Trouble said

On the last day of this month, there is still the support of the monthly pass, it is so difficult to fight over the fierce people on the monthly pass list, just don't fall out!
