Chapter 1191 Turning the Difficult into the Easy

Su You said again: "Officials have their own governing style, some are lenient and some are strict, and if the system allows, make appropriate adjustments according to the people's feelings, in fact, it is nothing." ”

"But for thousands of years, there has been no reason to 'punish without teaching'."

"I heard that the people were on the side of the road, and the deputy envoy and Li Ji co-created the envoy to pay 'money for encroaching on the street', right?"

Richard hurriedly said: "This is a measure to inspect the main roads in Shaanxi and ensure the smooth flow of land traffic at the request of the Central Committee and the Military Aircraft Department. ”

Su You said with a smile: "The deputy envoy doesn't need to explain, when I was in Bianjing City, it was stipulated that mule carts need to bring dung pockets when entering the city, otherwise the fine will not be harsher than yours?" ”

"But the measure has to be effective, what if the people pay the money for the street invasion? Is it a matter of course that the main road is encroached upon? ”

Richard stopped talking.

Judge Lu Changheng was a little angry: "Is Guogong quite dissatisfied with our Shaanxi government?" ”

But isn't it, from the chief and deputy envoys of the transfer department to the envoys of the economic strategy, they were all scolded by Su You, and it is quite reasonable to say that they are dissatisfied.

Su You didn't even raise his head, continued to record in his notebook, and said: "Judge Lu has thought too much, I just said, this meeting, everyone can speak freely, so as to find the lack of governance in Shaanxi." ”

"When someone else puts forward an opinion, I usually analyze whether he is right or not, and I don't care about the identity and position of the other party."

"If the problem is him, then I don't have to care, if the problem is me, then I am not afraid to correct it."

"Just now, Judge Lu thought that I was dissatisfied with the governance of Shaanxi, but in fact, I misunderstood. On the contrary, I am very satisfied with the governance of Shaanxi. ”

"Shaanxi was originally a backward region, since five generations, it has withered to the extreme, and then the rise of Western Xia, repeated invasions, made Shaanxi even worse."

"Now that the frontier has been consolidated, the Fan Yi is obedient, the Western Xia does not dare to wreak havoc anymore, the people's livelihood has been greatly restored, and the population has broken through from 4 million to 10 million, which is inseparable from the efforts of you and your predecessors."

"But now that Shaanxi is facing a new situation, we need to summarize the new situation and find a new way out."

"The plan proposed by Lu Gong and Deputy Envoy Li is also a plan, and I just list the irrationalities of the two plans. In the same way, you can do the same with the plan I propose. Only in this way can a plan be negotiated that is as complete as possible. ”

"I have this way of doing things, Lu Gong may know it in the South China Sea, and please judge Lu don't think too much, let's go back to Shaanxi."

"Everyone has a very sharp eye for the problem, and knows that once the West is in a big way, the most important thing is logistics, and the Transshipment Department cannot escape the responsibility of transshipment."

"The military strength of Shaanxi, the old army plus the volunteers, the township archers, the upper army, and the brave, in fact, is not less than 200,000. Now, after many layoffs and careful selection, 60,000 have been left. ”

"If these 60,000 people go out and are supplied locally in Shaanxi, it's not a big problem, right?"

Fan Chun breathed a sigh of relief: "This is no problem, Yi Yong, township archers and the like, if you defend the soil, in fact, you don't consume grain." ”

"The warehouses in Shaanxi are now abundant, and if there are only 60,000 people attacking, there will be no problem with the supply of grain and straw."

"But this transfer ......"

Su You recorded it in his notebook: "I will verify the quantity with Brother Fan in a while, then the first problem will be solved, the grain and grass of the 60,000 people of the old army will be supplied by the Shaanxi Road." The second question is Uncle Gao's new army. ”

Richard said: "The treatment of the new army is too good, and it is a little difficult to supply Shaanxi all the way, unless the treatment is reduced to the same as the old army." ”

Su You shook his head: "This is impossible, fortunately, I have agreed with Uncle Gao Guo that the logistics of the new army will be the responsibility of the new army itself, and even after the old army leaves the country, it will be coordinated by the new army." ”

Lu Huiqing was overjoyed: "If this is the case, Shaanxi Road can be obliged to reward some more military supplies, Fan Yunshuai, don't you say?" ”

Fan Chun said: "Exactly! If Mingrun can guarantee that the people of Shaanxi will not be allowed to leave the country with the army, then my Shaanxi Road Transfer Division can provide 40,000 stone of grain free of charge! ”

"The two of you are a good plan." Su You was happy: "But ...... I agree in principle. ”

"The opinion of the Military Aircraft Department is to send grain to the four advance bases in advance, namely Langdu, Weizhou, Yanzhou, and Linzhou. Shaanxi is the middle road and the most important road, so the food prepared is also the most. ”

Fan Chun asked, "How much?" ”

"400,000 stones."

As soon as the numbers came out, everyone was shocked, where is this 100,000 army, this is ...... The attrition of the 500,000 army in the First World War!

"So much?" Richard was a little worried: "400,000 stone grain, 100,000 troops a year, 400 catties per capita?" Need so much? ”

Su You said: "Be prepared, our goal is not only to defeat the Xia people, but to achieve long-term occupation. ”

"In order to prevent the Xia people from attacking the wall and clearing the wilderness, it is necessary to ensure that our army will persist in occupying it for more than a year when it is unable to supply on the spot."

"According to this calculation, 400,000 stones may not be enough."

Fan Chun was dumbfounded: "This is ...... It's ......"

Su You said: "Occupy Monan. It's not the kind of fighting style that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty expelled the Xiongnu, what the Great Song Dynasty wanted was to permanently occupy the entire Monan! ”

Fan Chun was even more worried, while Lu Huiqing, Richard, and Lu Changheng were happy, and the opportunity for meritorious service came!

Fan Chun said: "Da Song now, does it have this strength? That's the land of dozens of states. ”

Su You said: "I won't talk about the specific strategy, now I will only talk about the responsibilities of the Transshipment Department." Xingluocang has now hoarded 700,000 stone of grain, and the follow-up is still endless. And these grains will be shipped to the four states in the spring. ”

"I hope that within half a year, the Shaanxi Road Transit Division will be able to complete the task of storing 400,000 stone of grain in Weizhou, and if possible, even move further north and reserve it in Ningxia City."

Lu Huiqing said worriedly: "With such a big move, the Xia people will definitely know about it, so won't the direction of our attack be exposed?" ”

Su You said: "There is indeed this possibility, but now that we have the confidence, the four roads began to hoard at the same time, so that the Xia people could not figure out the direction." ”

"And we still have great confidence in transmitting the wrong information to Western Xia. To be honest, even I still don't know which place is the main direction of attack, let alone Xia Ren? ”

Although Richard treated the people cruelly, he was obviously experienced: "Since the time of Song Zhenzong, Cao Gang has been customized. Light ships with 250 to 300 materials are transported from the north of Chuzhou to five times a year; Those who travel from the north of Luzhou are transported six times a year; ”

"For large ships with more than 400 materials, the number of shipments is slightly less, four and five times respectively."

"The Jing River can only travel 300 light boats, the journey is about 1,800 miles, and now with the help of the sails, the waterway is also more clearly explored, and it is only six times a year to reach the limit."

Su You praised: "Deputy Envoy Li is so capable! According to this calculation, a 300-material ship can carry 2,000 stones at a time, and 400,000 stones is 200 ships. Three shipments in half a year, a fleet of 60 ships with 300 materials can be completed. ”

"I can coordinate this capacity problem, but when the grain arrives in Weizhou, the trouble will be left to you."

Fan Chun said: "This is handed over to us, it is just to build more warehouses, Shaanxi has a dry climate, which is conducive to grain preservation, not afraid." ”

Lu Huiqing was already pondering the credit: "But there are some troubles in the two hundred miles from Weizhou to Pingxia City......

Su You took out a drawing from his bag: "It's not impossible, this is a thing designed by Shen Cunzhong, with it, we can also use water power." ”

Fan Chun took the drawing and drew a small boat on it, with stabilizing fins at the bottom of the boat and hooks at the front and back, which could be connected together.

Below the drawings is a diagram of dozens of small boats connected together, some of which are drawn on either side by mules and horses, who walk on either side of the waterway.

Lu Huiqing applauded when she saw it: "Wonderful! If this method can be used, Jingqu can be used, even if this kind of ship can only carry 50 stones at a time, and ten ships are connected, it can transport as many as 500 stones! Jingqu can reach Longshou Village, which saves hundreds of miles! ”

Lu Changheng hurriedly said: "For the remaining 100 miles, my Shaanxi Road Transfer Division uses a new type of Taiping car, and the people's mules and horses can be completed!" Two thousand miles of heavy labor has turned into a hundred miles of light labor, wonderful! ”
