Chapter 62: Logistics
Pro~ The domain name of this site: the abbreviation homonym of "166", which is very easy to remember! Good looking highly recommended: "Well, these things will be left to you for the time being! In addition to water facilities, these captives could do other things. This Huayin land is not ordinary, we have to make good use of it! Li Xin thought for a moment and said again.
"Just do what you say!" After the two discussed, many things were decided in this way.
After leaving the county office, Li Xin returned to his home, and he didn't come back for many days. Sure enough, once inside, the inside was still as clean.
"It seems that I really have to find a time to thank Zhou Ting!" Li Xin smiled and said secretly in his heart. Walked straight into the room and began to write down his plan.
This thing he wrote is a note of his experience over this period of time, and every time he thinks of an idea, he will record it before saying it, so as not to forget it after a long time. As he stayed in this era, he found that he had become more and more integrated into this era, and many of the original things might be forgotten in the end.
The words written on it are all simplified, and ordinary people can't read them even if they hold them in their hands. However, even so, he still put this thing on his body, and only took it out when he wanted to use it, and others didn't want to see it.
"The development plan is agriculture-oriented! I don't have to worry about this, Wang Meng should know how to do it, he is an expert in this regard! However, the soldiers suffered heavy casualties before, but they gave me a reminder that there are iron mines in this Huayin area! During the Han Dynasty, there were also iron officials here! Shouldn't it be mined, in this case, it can completely make the Huashan Army self-sufficient! Especially the problem of armor, you have to find a way to solve it, this thing is really life-saving on the battlefield! ”
"We also have to build our own weapons, and it is best to build a batch of sophisticated ones, so that the combat effectiveness of our army should be improved a lot. When the two are combined, it should be able to play the role of winning more with less! ”
"There is also everyone's food and clothing problem, it seems that we have to find a way to solve it! There is nothing wrong with the weather now, but what can I do in winter? Especially if the enemy comes by then, and we are too cold to move, then how can this battle be fought? ”
.........
Li Xin talked to himself while writing, but he wrote for a while, but found that the more he thought about it, the more he made his head dizzy. In the end, he had no choice but to give up, put down his pen, and paced irritably around the room.
"Huh? What was that? As he pondered his questions, a sudden noise came from outside the room, disrupting his thoughts. Stunned for a moment, he put the pamphlet away and walked out of the room.
"Hey, Han Tang, are you back? I thought you weren't there! There was a person standing in the lobby, it was Zhou Ting. Seeing him come out of it, I couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Oh, I just got back! Are you....? Li Xin smiled and replied.
"I thought I hadn't been here for a few days, and I was afraid it would be too dirty for you to live in when you came back. I came to take a look at it today, I didn't expect you to be at home! Zhou Ting said as she began to scrub it. Actually, it's not too dirty, at least in Li Xin's opinion.
"Well, you've been cleaning for me for so long, and I haven't had time to thank you yet!" When Li Xin heard this, he hurriedly said.
"What to thank, it's all simple things. Grandpa asked me to take care of you, saying that you often fight outside alone, and someone has to help clean up the house, just a little thing. I'll just come over when I'm free, and I don't usually have anything to do anyway! Zhou Ting smiled at him and said.
Li Xin didn't say anything more, and it would be too hypocritical to be polite. After all, I have been under the care of their family these days, and if I want to say thank you, I should have thanked him a long time ago!
"By the way, are the villagers all right down from the mountain?" After thinking about it, Li Xin asked. The people who came down later on the mountain were basically old, weak, women and children, Zhou Ting was very familiar with them, and asked her if she was right.
"That's good! Everyone said that it was thanks to you that you led everyone to win the battle, otherwise, everyone would have to nest in the mountains to blow the wind! Zhou Ting said with a smile.
"It's everyone's efforts, and it's not my own work! By the way, I have something I want to ask you! I don't know if you'd like to help! As he spoke, Li Xin suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said.
"Tell me what's going on!" Zhou Ting listened and looked at him curiously.
"That's right, there are more than 5,000 people in our Huashan Army now, but everyone's clothes have not been settled. If you want to say that you have been fighting a war all the time, there is no way to do it. But now, there may be a period of stability. So, I thought that everyone could wear the same clothes, but you have to do it, after all, how can we big and rough people make clothes! Li Xin hurriedly said.
Hearing this, Zhou Ting understood, in fact, they had done this at the beginning. However, at that time, it was just to let Huashan Army have clothes to wear, not to say that they wanted the same style.
Basically, many of the Huashan troops who had just come down from the mountains had homes on the mountains, and their families naturally helped to sew and mend their clothes. Even some people who don't have a family will basically help their neighbors. But now that the scale of the Huashan Army is large, that way is obviously not suitable.
"I understand, I'll discuss it with the others when I go back." For this matter, she happily agreed. After all, it is not a difficult thing for a woman of this era.
"Okay, then you go back and tell everyone that as long as there are people who are willing to do this, we will all be paid at that time, and each of you will be given a roll of cloth. Our current conditions are not very good, and we can only do this! Thank you for your understanding! Li Xin said gratefully.
In today's warehouse, there are a lot of cloth and silk that were seized at the beginning, but they have never been useful, and they are not only wasted but also occupy space when placed there. It's better to take it out for everyone's welfare, so that it can be regarded as a happy thing for the soldiers of the Huashan Army.
After that, Li Xin found Wang Meng and handed over the matter to him and asked him to arrange it. And he himself rushed to the old horse's craftsman's camp.
"Old Ma, how is it going? Can you still be busy? "Lao Ma's craftsman camp is actually not far from the county government. In this case, once it is a weapon, it can be put into the arsenal next to the prefectural government office nearby, so that it can be called at any time.
"Thankfully, you added a lot of people to me last time, otherwise I wouldn't have been too busy. But the kind of weapon you're talking about! I've tried for a long time, but I can't get it. Although it can be said to create a shape, it is either too brittle or too soft. Once you use it, it's not as good as the one we use now! The old horse was sweating bare-chested, and was striking iron, and when he saw him coming, he handed over the work in his hand to the apprentice on the side, and said.
"Don't worry, in short, just try more! I'd rather be slower, but I'd rather find the best ratio. To tell you the truth, I'm very useful for this thing, so you have to keep it a secret! I can't say that in the future, this thing can bring us a huge surprise! Hearing this, Li Xin was a little disappointed, but he didn't blame him, but comforted him.
"Good! By the way, there is another one, that is, we don't have many materials anymore, and the things you sent over before have basically been used. Not to mention the fact that I had so many farm tools before. If you don't think of a way, I'm afraid this craftsman camp will only be able to do carpentry work! Seeing that he was not angry, Lao Ma couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and hurriedly said.
"I've thought about this question for a long time. Since you are from Guanzhong, you should know that Huayin has an iron mine a long time ago! We've had a lot of prisoners here lately, and I'm going to allocate 300 men to mine, so you shouldn't have any problems, right? Nodding, Li Xin said to him.
"If that's the case, that's great, as long as there is a steady stream of iron ore coming in, we can produce more weapons and farm tools!" Hearing the news, Lao Ma immediately said happily.
After the two talked for a while, Li Xin left. After turning around, especially after inspecting the defense of Dongcheng, I was relieved. Originally, he was going to go out of the city again to have a look, but Wang Meng sent someone to call him back.
"I have always ignored a problem before, that is, if we are besieged, I am afraid that the lives of the people will be greatly affected! For example, if you don't have salt, it will have a great impact on everyone over time! As soon as he sat down, Wang Meng spoke.
"That's what I thought about! How much salt do we have in the warehouse today? When Li Xin heard this, he couldn't help frowning and asked.
"It's not much, it's thanks to the batch of salt that Di Qin brought before. Even if we save a little money, with so many people, I'm afraid we won't be able to last long. You see, what should be used to solve it! Wang Meng shook his head and said with some concern.
"There are very few places where salt is produced in the Guanzhong area, and even if there is, it is not under our control. Unless we can cross the north bank of Weishui, we may be able to get salt, but in the current situation, this is obviously not possible! Just put up with him for a few months! Let's try to save as much as possible, and give priority to ensuring combat soldiers. As long as you survive these three or four months, it shouldn't be a problem! Li Xin thought for a while, finally shook his head, and said helplessly. 166 Reading Network
