Chapter 447: There will be action
Yanyun's eighteen rides are mysterious, Li De understands it, the reason why this guard is so mysterious is because they all wear masks, so that people can't see their expressions clearly.
Perhaps it's because the color of the visor is dull and dull, giving it a sense of calm and mystery.
"Governor Li, Yanyun's eighteen cavalry and five thousand soldiers rushed to support Youzhou."
Luo Yi came to Li De with people, and it seemed that he had no intention of taking back the defense of Youzhou City.
Li De wanted to know what Luo Yi thought.
"General Luo, now that Youzhou City has Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry coming, the city defense affairs will get twice the result with half the effort, I don't know what you want to do next, these guards will stay?"
"Li Dudu doesn't know that every time the Luo family's guards go out, they have to defeat the Turks to get supplies for repair, and after the war, they need to be repaired even more if they need supplies."
Luo Yi's meaning was obvious, but he was embarrassed to speak when the words came to his lips.
"In this case, all the military supplies are sent by the vanguards, so that the guards can repair them properly."
Li De simply said the matter of the materials.
After a great battle, Luo Yi and the Li family brothers have obtained a lot of materials one after another, but compared to the capture of the vanguards, it is too small after all, and they cannot supply the five thousand guards at all.
Li De saw Luo Yi's difficulties, and according to what he said, the style of this Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry should be purely to raise war with war.
Now that all the captured supplies have become their vanguard, supply is a very important issue, and how far this guard can go depends entirely on the Turks.
It is somewhat stressful to increase the supply of 5,000 people, after all, the situation in Youzhou City has gone through several twists and turns, and now it is even more deserving and destroying half of the city.
The cost of regenerating energy can be astronomical.
For this reason, he didn't worry too much, but felt that this time he really made money.
Regardless of whether the eighteen cavalry of Yanyun were as powerful as the legend, at least the strength of this good guard of 5,000 people was certain, and even the original most elite soldiers of the vanguard only had more than 2,000 personal guards.
Now that this combat power has been added, of course, you must be happy.
Luo Yi saw Li De so happy, and his impression of Li De was better, he was able to focus on the overall situation, and he was good at formulating battle plans.
He liked this kind of division.
"Governor Li, then I'll leave first."
"General Li walks slowly, I won't send it."
Li De didn't say anything polite to Luo Yi, if he sent it to everyone, he wouldn't have to do anything else for a day, and it would take up all his time to send it every day.
"Governor, the preliminary budget for the construction of Youzhou City has been calculated, and it will take 800,000 yuan."
When Yang Yuer came in, she saw that there was no one in the house, so she said it directly.
Li De thought a little in his heart, what kind of concept is 800,000 yuan, if it is used for the northwest soldiers and horses, it will be enough for at least three years.
If you want to collect so much money, you need a whole year of heavy taxes in the northwest to barely make it up, and it is still very unpopular to do so.
If Youzhou City wants to have 800,000 yuan, it is thought that the people in the city may not be able to accumulate it in ten years.
"Governor!" As soon as I thought about it, I heard Gao Cheng's voice.
Then he saw Gao Cheng come in and said, "Dudu, the number of captured Turkic soldiers has been counted at a total of 42,000, and they have now been placed in several places in the city, such as the southeast, the northwest, and so on. ”
"Shoot more people, they have lost their fighting spirit now that they have become captives, and they cannot be taken lightly." Li De instructed.
Now is the time when there is a shortage of manpower, and more soldiers are assigned to guard these people, and Gao Cheng feels that it is really not necessarily a wise choice to keep these people.
"Yes, I'll go and send men according to the Governor's wishes." Gao Cheng couldn't figure it out, but he would firmly carry out the task assigned by Lu.
Gao Cheng left, and Li De continued to talk to Yang Yuer about money.
"Lord Yujun don't worry, we will have money sooner or later, after the crisis in Youzhou City is resolved, our cement will continue to bring us wealth."
Li De just said it casually, and his tone was very peaceful, and it was really the attitude of talking to this woman in the family, and the lord of Yujun sounded a little weird, and he said it like the vanguard Youzhou City was theirs.
"Dudu, the city gate is seriously damaged and needs to be repaired, this expenditure alone accounts for a lot of expenses, and it will take at least two or three months to complete it completely, and now the Turks are fleeing some, but according to the news of the scouts, there are at least 20,000 soldiers and horses left in the Turkic camp, and then we will be passive in building the city."
The Jade County Lord reminded Li De that he had no skills in battle yet, and they still had a lot of things to do to be able to fight, so they couldn't take it lightly.
"In terms of money, first from the accounts of the cement business, some money will be used to repair the city, and other matters will be held in a combat meeting to continue to discuss."
Seeing that Li De did not relax his vigilance, the lord of Yujun finished talking about the things she was responsible for and left, she still had a lot of things to do.
Far outside Youzhou City, the movements of the fleeing Turks and Northern Barbarians are under the surveillance of the vanguard scouts, and through the information collected, it can be concluded that these people will definitely not leave easily.
It is likely that they will find an opportunity to rescue the Turkic captives in the city.
After a while, Shi Huaiyi and Ding Qilin came over at the same time.
"To make a long story short, now that the Turkic horses have been captured, I want you to train 20,000 cavalry for the vanguard from now on, and you can be confident that you can do this task well." Li De asked.
The two of them had just been supervising the cleaning of the battlefield outside, and as soon as they came back, they heard that the governor wanted to see them, so they hurriedly came to the governor's mansion and arranged errands when they met.
"Don't worry, we will be able to do a good job." Shi Huaiyi said.
"Twenty thousand cavalry, isn't there thirty thousand horses that are not injured?" Ding Qilin said.
"Captain Ding, don't you know about the capture of the vanguards, although there are 30,000 horses that can equip the vanguards, don't forget that our war horses need to be repaired, and it is the limit to be able to train another 20,000 cavalry."
Ding Qilin grabbed his hair, thinking that he was a little anxious.
"Leave the things in your hands to others to do, and the top priority is to train the cavalry well for me, and increase the overall strength of the vanguard so that it is possible to have more guarantees in the next battle." Li De continued.
After the two left, Wei Li, Wei Xun and others came back one after another to ask for advice.
"Dudu, the Turks have no intention of leaving, can you let me wait to bring some soldiers and horses to the night attack." Wei Li asked.
"No, what we have to do now is to hurry up and repair, it is not so easy for the Turks to recover, at least we have three days." Li Dedao.
Wei Li, Wei Xun's eyes lit up, and he knew that there might be action next.
