Chapter 1698: To be rich is to be capricious

Regarding fighting, Han Yi is really not good at it, but he is a psychological brick, and psychological warfare is just a relatively high realm at the tactical level, what is the basis for surrendering without fighting, in fact, it is psychological warfare, and Han Yi seeks stability, as long as he wins, these expenses are nothing, so sooner or later, he really doesn't care, but if he loses, this account will be very difficult to get.

He hopes to be able to stabilize and stop being impatient, so as not to lose more than he gains.

Ren Yaxiang frowned and said: "But the difficulties brought by winter are not only the grain and grass, but also the cold weather, Goguryeo has burned down all the houses, where does our army live?" ”

Han Yi said with a smile: "First of all, this is just a psychological war, we don't necessarily have to fight until next winter, we just want to let the other party know that even if we fight until next winter, we are not afraid of them." In addition, we have been preparing supplies for the soldiers for the winter early in the morning, and it is coming soon, we want our soldiers to know this, we are invincible, even if we spend the winter here, it will not be any different from home? Then the soldier will calm down. ”

Pang Xiaotai was surprised: "Do we have so much food? ”

He is not in Chang'an, and he doesn't know much about the situation.

Han Yi said: "At present, we haven't used a grain of grain from the treasury, and I'm thinking more about it now, what should I do with this grain after the war?" Because when the class teacher returns to the court, the cost of transporting so much grain back to China will be much higher than the price of grain, and maybe we will have to give alms to these Goguryeo people at that time. ”

"Haha!"

Everyone burst out laughing.

The corners of Li Ji's mouth also showed a slight smile.

Han Yide's words did go beyond the tactical level.

He held a meeting in the Chinese army to stabilize the morale of the army, but Han Yi's words basically stabilized the morale of the army.

No matter how bad it is, the enemy can be consumed to death, not afraid of no food, not afraid of no clothing, isn't it winter, who is afraid of whom?

It is equivalent to declaring that the Tang Army is invincible, and with this guarantee, everyone will naturally calm down, and there is no need to count the days to fight, how painful it is.

Li Ji nodded with a smile and said, "You have also heard it, appeasing the ambassador has made us invincible, and what we generals have to do is to see if we can add icing on the cake to this victory." ”

"Haha!"

Laughter erupted in the tent again.

The soldiers outside heard the big guys laughing inside, and they also wondered in their hearts, now that their attack was blocked, why were the big guys still so happy, maybe they had a plan to break the enemy.

After this meeting, the Tang army began to unite its troops and move closer to the Chinese army, and the ancient communication was like that, Li Ji was also afraid that there would be a mistake like Pang Xiaotai again, and his mind was hot, and the lone army went deep, which was very possible, and in the war, he was often hot-headed, and if he joined the army, it would be easy to command.

And Han Yi didn't know if he was shouting, he quickly put his words into practice.

Because the peninsula is in winter, the sea may freeze, so it is necessary to deliver winter supplies before the arrival of winter. But it's not that the logistics will be very busy, in fact, it's relatively easy, because Han Yi's plan is to use the island as a transfer station, which is similar to the Caoyun restructuring, in fact, the logistics have been moving during this period, but it is just transported from Laizhou to the island, and then from one island to another, and then sent here, every day.

After the Tang Army's front was stabilized, a large amount of supplies began to be delivered to the docks.

There were not only grain and grass, but also winter clothes, bedding, and so on, and this was the first time that cotton should be used in the military.

But the current output of cotton production is still limited, although it has been preparing, but it is impossible to use cotton from head to toe, cotton is mainly used in socks and gloves, and winter clothes, basically the same as before, is to wear a little more, mainly hemp, because hemp in today's Tang Dynasty, is overcapacity, because the emergence of cotton, resulting in the price of hemp plummeted.

But hemp is not very good at keeping out the cold, which depends on silk cotton and animal fur, but the beauty of freedom Those clever designers, from the experience of being poor in the past, came up with a very money-saving way, they sew some silk cotton rags and broken fur on the inner layer of the clothes, as an inner liner, increase the thickness of the clothes, and do not affect the beauty of the clothes.

More importantly, this helped Han Yi save a lot of money, and he couldn't guarantee that every soldier would wear the best silk cotton, which was unrealistic.

But the beauty of freedom will produce a large number of rags every year, these rags are lost is a pity, you must know that the owner of the beauty of freedom, Zheng Shanxing is a very "stingy" guy, donate money, he is very generous, but he is very economical in terms of materials, his designers are better than him wearing, his clothes are really plain, but his fame also makes these things irrelevant, so the designer of the beauty of freedom, always have to use their brains, think about how to use waste, otherwise, The boss will be unhappy, who can think of a way to reuse waste, Zheng Shanxing will reward him very generously.

However, the underwear is still brand new, and the underwear must be comfortable and warm.

The emergence of cotton, the surplus of hemp, coupled with the rise of the textile industry, and Han Yi was preparing for this a long time ago, resulting in the Tang Army being able to face the arrival of winter very calmly, no longer like before, soldiers still have to prepare their own winter clothes, and the country simply can't make so many clothes.

In addition, there is oil, now the coal must not be burned, but there is firewood on this side, it is said to be a scorched earth policy, but it is impossible to burn the mountains here, of course, it is more cost-effective to burn wood, oil is only an auxiliary, he can make the wood burn longer, it is also a very big help for the fire.

The soldiers of the Tang Army are not stupid, a large number of winter supplies have been delivered, which is obviously to spend the winter here.

And for soldiers, it is very cold where to spend the winter, and if you are well fed and warmly clothed here, you will spend the winter.

At the same time, Han Yi also promised the soldiers very arrogantly that as long as they won the war, everyone would be rewarded, and the pension would be three times that of previous years, and the imperial court would let their children study in Zhaoyi Academy within five years, and help the soldiers who were in difficulty find jobs in the city.

The soldiers of the Tang Army were excited when they heard the news, although Han Yi only promised, but Han Yi is a golden signboard, no one doubted Han Yi's words, Han Yi threw away thousands of weapons and equipment for thousands of soldiers, without blinking, people can lie for this money. Moreover, now that it has reached the Yalu River, success is close at hand, and the imperial court has given such a heavy reward, even my family and descendants have been taken into account, and Goguryeo must be destroyed!

The barracks were filled with joy and a peaceful atmosphere.

Because the Tang army and Goguryeo are now in a confrontation, the two army camps are not far apart, the situation of the Tang army, the Goguryeo soldiers are all in the eyes, even the prisoners who surrendered in front of them, have added a few clothes, because the Tang army soldiers get some new clothes, some unwanted, after sewing, they will give these prisoners to wear, although these prisoners do not eat as much as the Tang army, they eat inferior rice, but it is better than the Goguryeo soldiers, at least not hungry them, hungry who will do these hard work, Han Yi's logistics pay attention to fighting to support war, and his logistics army is mainly based on elites and businessmen, which is different from recruiting people to serve in the past.

The soldiers of Goguryeo thought to themselves, we who fought at home, dressed like beggars, and every day when we had a meal, we still had to smell the fragrance of the Tang army's food to appetize.

At the same time, Goguryeo is gradually feeling the pressure inside, although the Tang army has been resting recently, in the army, not as fierce as at the beginning, but the problem is that the Tang army is obviously going to spend the winter here, that is to say, the war will take a long time to end, because Goguryeo's tactics are one, defense, there is no counterattack, as long as the Tang army stays here, they have to defend for as long, which will definitely have a negative impact on Goguryeo's morale.

......

......

"Brother Han, Brother Han."

When Han Yi was sitting in the big tent and checking the distribution of materials dizzily, Brother Xiong ran in sweating profusely and said, "Brother Han, guess who is coming?" ”

Han Yi was pleasantly surprised: "It won't be your big sister, right?" ”

Brother Xiong blinked, then shook his head and said, "That's not it." ”

Han Yi said angrily: "Why are you not so excited?" ”

Brother Xiong scratched his fat cheeks in embarrassment and said, "Yes--- Uncle Yang is here." ”

"Uncle Yang? Which Uncle Yang? ”

"It's Guan Guogong!"

"Guanguo Gong?"

Han Yi was surprised: "Why did he come?" ”

Before the words fell, he heard someone outside the tent: "I hope to appease and forgive the subordinate official for the crime of leaving his post without permission!" ”

While speaking, I saw Yang Sixun walk in.

Han Yi was stunned, then stood up and arched his hand: "How dare you, how dare you." Guanguogong, please take a seat. After Yang Sixun sat down, he asked again: "But Guan Guogong, why did you come?" Did you encounter any difficulties? ”

Yang Sixun hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "It's because I encountered some difficulties." ”

"What's so difficult?"

Yang Sixun's face was unspeakable.

Han Yi hurriedly said: "Guan Guogong, what is the relationship between you and me, there are no outsiders here, you have something to say, but it doesn't matter." "If Yang Sixun has an accident, it is a logistics accident, and he has to be responsible.

Yang Sixun said: "Pacify the envoy, can we change it?" ”

"Change?" Han Yi looked at Yang Sixun in confusion.

Yang Sixun said: "It's not a secret, I rarely deal with merchants in my life, and I won't negotiate with them, but now Baekje is full of merchants, and there are many problems in the middle, and I get dizzy every day, and I really don't know how to deal with some problems, so I want to come here to take care of logistics." ”

The implication is that you go over there to deal with merchants.

Yang Sixun is a noble family with a strong Miao Hong, the Yang family is the royal family of the Sui Dynasty, although the society is progressing, but after so many years of being a nobleman, many thoughts cannot be changed, before Han Yi, he has never met with businessmen at all, and he does look down on businessmen, and now the merchants are piled up in Baekje, because Han Yi's plan was taken over by merchants after the war, and it is safer over there, Baekje has perished, and the royal family is on the way to Chang'an, and it is not very safe here, Merchants are not afraid to come here to pick up land.

He deals with businessmen over there every day, he can't hide, he talks about the benefits every day, he really can't bear it, he thinks this side is more suitable for himself, this is the place where soldiers should stay, his father Yang Gongren is a general, both civil and military, of course, he also wants to make contributions, not to lose his father's face, instead of discussing with businessmen every day how much an acre of land is worth.

Han Yi pondered for a moment and nodded, "Okay." ”

Yang Sixun didn't expect Han Yi to agree so happily, and he couldn't react, "What about you agree?" ”

Han Yi nodded and smiled: "It's true that I didn't think it through, as far as I'm concerned, I'd rather deal with those merchants than direct traffic here." ”

Yang Sixun was overjoyed, hugged his fists and said, "That's really thankful." ”
