In Hexi Prefecture, Deputy Trade Minister Tru has been busy recently, and he feels that his body has decreased a lot, because there are too many orders, and the Huns want to buy too many things. And merchants from Hedong, Luzhou, and even Jizhou are constantly transporting all kinds of materials, they need to bring more cattle and sheep back, and even have to deal with more things, in short, things are very, very much.

It's not just businessmen from these regions, but even the military.

The Republican Army led by Shang Wu is strong in terms of tactics and logistics, especially after the large-scale promotion of firearms, if such firearms and ammunition problems cannot be guaranteed in time, many things will not be able to continue. Therefore, Shangwu has committed the same mistake as the M army in dealing with the problem of logistics, and would rather have more than pile up more than less.

As if the republican army had an endless amount of money, a large amount of real combat materials were concentrated in the temporary military brutality established in Hexi Prefecture, for example, there were more than 150,000 sets of military overcoats. This is an extremely staggering number, these 150,000 sets of military coats, there are thin ones. There are thickened models, there are many styles, although the style is basically the same, but the origin is different, and there are various labels.

In addition, they made more than 100,000 pairs of boots, foot wraps, sock covers, and more. When it comes to munitions, the Republican Army is extremely generous. These orders can greatly stimulate the economic development of Hedong and Luzhou, and many women have found their own work, and they can specialize in production. Under such an incentive, the supply of such military supplies in a relatively short period of time can greatly meet the needs of the Republican Army.

But there's more. It is also a waste, for example, the Republican Army needs a thin military coat in the Luzhou area. Thicker sections are only needed in extremely cold conditions. At the same time, the IRA also developed a woolen trousers made of camel hair. This can greatly ensure the warmth of the soldiers.

The military supplies in various places are basically saturated, and the military supplies in the military warehouses in Hexi Prefecture will become a burden, even if they are transported to various regions in the south, it is also extremely unrealistic; first of all, it is difficult for the people in the south to digest such a large number of military supplies, and the reason is very simple, their purchasing power is seriously insufficient, and only rich people will consume them. The Republican Army is still inadequate in this regard, because the Republican Army seems to be biased towards military products, single, and can be mass-produced, and for fine clothing, the Republican Army is extremely lacking in this regard.

Under such circumstances, the military handed over the batch of military supplies to the Hexi Prefecture Trade Department, hoping that they would deal with it.

Tru is still very capable, and the Huns in the north quickly liked such military uniforms, and they especially liked large military uniforms, because they were not only warm to wear, but also could be waved at will, which was simply the most advantageous point for them, but the problem was that in such a situation, many of their things actually changed a lot. For example, the price of military uniforms is not cheap, and there are military boots, although they are very warm and very comfortable, but the question is, how do they deal with such a situation, or in such a situation, they do not have the money to buy them.

Tru unfortunately encountered such a problem, the quality of military products can definitely be guaranteed, Tru at the time of introduction. The Huns knew that this was a good thing, because they had wanted to take such clothes off the corpses of the Republicans, and now the Republicans actually sold them such uniforms, which was a very good thing, and the price seemed very fair. One hundred and fifty yuan for a military coat, and the price of boots is fifty yuan, which does not seem very expensive, and such a price is very fair. Because the Huns knew that in the northern weather, being able to have such military coats and military boots would definitely guarantee their combat effectiveness. The price is also fair. It's much better than those silks and stuff like that.

But the problem is that they don't have money, they buy salt, buy iron pots, all kinds of weapons, iron horseshoe, an iron horseshoe is not expensive, but five yuan or four. But the problem is, the number is huge. With the addition of arrowheads, the processed leather armor was a mess, and the Huns had already hollowed out their homes. They really don't have any money. Some chiefs have begun to consider an indisputable fact. That is, they absolutely go to war against the Wuhuan people in the north, or the tribes that attack them rob the population.

Anyway, they're starting to do many, many things out of the ordinary.

Things for the southerners were good, but money was needed, a lot of republican dollars, and paper money was already completely accepted by the Huns. They don't seem to have such a habit of saving money for paper money, and they habitually start the mode of buying, buying, buying, and buying, which can easily spend all their savings, and finally leave them with nothing.

Now the problem is that the Republican stuff is good, but they don't have the money. If he can become rich and buy such things, this question makes Tru, a vice minister of trade, feel very embarrassed, and he has thought of many ways.

Soon, his boss, the Minister of Trade, came up with a good idea, that is, to borrow money, as long as they find the bank to borrow money, they can solve such a difficult problem, but the problem is, if you borrow money from the bank, you need a mortgage, and these mortgages come from all sides? In other words, what to use as collateral, this makes Tru very embarrassed, because he can't think of a good way to solve such a problem now, and if he can come up with it, naturally there will be no such thing.

Luoyang, Beijing. Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai got together to drink, and Cao Cao could rest assured about the things in the barracks.

After the republican officers and soldiers competed, those soldiers immediately understood what the gap was, and how big the gap would be, and even how amazing the problems they would face under such a gap.

The officers and men began to calm down, starting from the queue, the military posture, and they did not use sticks at all, and they knew what to do, because they felt that they could do it themselves.

Their determination is good, but there are still many things that need to be done, for example, they still need to do a lot.

The basis of the queue is the military posture, there can be no all kinds of small movements, they must maintain the appearance of soldiers, this way, is extremely boring, their enthusiasm is quickly worn out, in order to allow them to understand the weapons in time, into battle, the instructor also has to personally teach them a variety of weapons knowledge, such as, how to maintain their weapons, how to clean up, how to deal with some small problems, when fighting, matters to pay attention to, etc., these are all small things, but the Republican Army instructor carried out a detailed dismantling, And everyone was assessed, and those who did not pass the test could only eat after passing the test. Those who pass the test will be rewarded, a large piece of pilaf. The rewards are all very straightforward.

This greatly encouraged the soldiers, but before them, they first learned one thing, washing their hands before eating and after using the toilet, which is the most basic, and in doing so, it can also minimize non-combat attrition. But this is not enough, because some soldiers still fall ill and leave the battle every day. Sanitation is still needed to solve this problem, and a variety of research is needed from the Republican Army Medical College. They want to be able to achieve new development in some ways like this.

The advisory group is equivalent to Cao Cao's staff group, and with such helpers, Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai can concentrate on other things. For example, they noticed some new reports in the newspapers.

"What is this railway? Although I don't know what this thing is, the amount of iron needed for this is very large, and what I do know is that a large number of weapons, domestic iron, are obtained from the Republican Army, and the demand for iron will increase greatly. And the iron of the Republican Army can be used to pave roads, which is really a luxury, too extravagant. Cao Cao said after taking a sip of wine.

Although Cao Cao didn't know what a railway was, and he hadn't seen it, being able to use a large amount of iron to pave the road was an extremely unbelievable thing in itself. Because the price of iron is still not cheap, and most importantly, the production of iron is also unbelievable, and under such circumstances, the fact that the Republican Army can accomplish such things at once is simply a result that they cannot believe. Faced with such things, they simply don't know how to deal with such a situation.

"This only shows that the IRA has mastered a way to produce iron on a large scale, and iron is not very important to them, and I think it is a very important business, and if we can get such a business from the IRA, iron can bring us a lot of benefits." Xi Zhicai said.

He got some news from this information, and his reaction to this news was that the amount of iron needed by the Republican Army was quite large, and he had to know that a railroad was about to come out. The demand will be very large.

"Well, but we don't have any money, I'm concerned about borrowing money. The imperial court is borrowing money, Dong Zhuo is also borrowing money, many people are borrowing money, why can't we borrow money? Cao Cao thought for a while and said. Lack of money is a problem that most warlords encounter, and without money, they can't do anything. In such a situation, borrowing money is the best solution to all problems. Because only by solving such problems can their problems not be problems. In this way, their situation can become more advantageous.
