Today's 14 states of the Han Dynasty (Liaodong and Goguryeo are combined into Pingzhou), Youzhou, located in the north of Xinjiang, is undoubtedly the richest state, not only in the governance of the Qingming, people's livelihood is stable, in many infrastructure construction, it is better than the rest of the states, to the outsiders who have been here or study or business, to them the most impressive is that in addition to the wealth of the metropolis, it is necessary to talk about the spacious and smooth roads in Youzhou, almost all the roads connecting the counties can be parallel five or six carriages, This is already extremely good at the end of the Han Dynasty! "If you want to be rich, build roads first." Although this saying is superficial, it is extremely profound, it is with these smooth avenues, the various materials in Youzhou can pass unimpeded, Liu Yi's annual investment in it is huge, and there is also a special piece of financial revenue in each county to repair bridges and pave roads.

Now this habit has been extended to the states under Liu Yi's rule, every year is not a busy time for farming, many people will also participate in the construction of roads under the organization of the state capital, although this kind of income is not much, but the benefits of smooth roads they have long felt, said that Liu Yi is not an expert here, and it can even be said that he does not know anything, but as the Lord, he does not need omnipotent, omnipotence is God, he only needs to put forward according to his own requirements, and then let the officials under his command brainstorm, you can get good results, Moreover, in the late Han Dynasty, there were few tofu slag projects.

In addition to the commonly used official roads, Youzhou also has a special post road, his scale is much smaller than the official road, but it is better than no interference, such a post road often every forty or fifty miles will have a team of county soldiers guarded, usually dedicated to transmit military information or emergency when the material transport, for example, when the previous Youzhou blizzard, Tian Yu transported to the counties of a lot of relief goods are on this road, it is very convenient and fast. And now Gao Lan's Tiger Guard and the second battalion of the state and Yan Gang's white horse battalion are running and up, and the state battalion is led by the deputy commander Hou Cheng, and the march is temporarily listening to Gao Ran's deployment, and after arriving in Desizhou, he will return to his own position, and Fan Chou is also around Luoyang at this time.

The battle array is often the most brilliant are those commanders, ministers, generals and loyal soldiers, but before that, the preparation of ordnance, grain and grass and the collection of people are all logistics work, they can be called behind-the-scenes heroes, there is no logistics support in place, the combat strength of the troops will be reduced by at least three percent, Liu Yi is convinced of this, there was a marshal in later generations who attributed a battle that decided the life and death of both sides to the people's wheelbarrows, although it is slightly exaggerated, but the importance of logistics is real.

Tian Yu, who is the general manager of the whole army, is by no means under those generals in Liu Yi's heart, if he wants to do a good job in logistics, in addition to the rich material reserves, the ability of the leader is indispensable, he must not only have a good overall view and precise coordination ability, but also have a deep understanding of the military, such talents are very rare, and Tian Yu is just one of the best, so the logistics department in Youzhou Academy has always been led by him.

This expedition is not only fast, but also extremely secretive, easy to say, but it is extremely difficult to achieve both, and Xi Zhicai completely handed over this responsibility to Tian Yu in the planning, which can also show the status of this person in the army! Tian Jiming gave an order, and all the counties and counties moved, and the patrol soldiers who were originally only forty or fifty miles away were already ten miles at this time, and the soldiers selected everywhere were all county soldiers who were born and raised in Youzhou, and all the regulations were also formulated according to wartime.

At this time, although it was getting late, there were still several long military formations on the post road, and on the left side of the road were the white horse cavalry of one color, they marched in a single column of horses, and the speed was extremely stable, and in the middle was a large group of carts, each of which carried a soldier, and their speed was also controlled in parallel with the cavalry! And on the right side of the road are two parallel columns of green shirt soldiers, each of whom has a tiger character in their hearts, at this time they are not light and strong, except for the blade of the carry, there is no other weight, which is also the biggest reason why they can keep up with the two columns of soldiers on the left and never fall behind!

At the end of the queue was a group of even more huge mule carts, on which the grain, grass and ordnance were piled up, which was obviously the weight of the army in front, which was the best formation to speed up the march, but it could only be used in the territory of the two states, otherwise the mule cart queue carrying the baggage would definitely be placed in the military formation by the generals of the unified army.

On the post road under the night, the flow of 70,000 troops and tens of thousands of people is majestic, but there are few noisy sounds, if this situation is seen by Cao Cao Liu Bei and others in the eyes will be sincerely admired, they should know how difficult it is to do this, the Tiger Guard Battalion and the White Horse and the Second Battalion have always been the elite of the army, but those people can be so shocking? Tian Yu's ability can also be almost perfectly reflected at this point!

Liu Yi in this world has always pursued the strategy of elite soldiers, the ratio of his soldiers and the people under his rule is extremely reasonable, he used the most troops in the battle of Jizhou last year, a total of 340,000 horses and sailors were dispatched, and more than 70,000 people were strong, you must know that he has nearly one-third of the population of the Han Dynasty in his hands, the number of the year before last was more than 6.6 million, if Liu Yi is exhausted, then the million army can also be recruited, but this is for him to dry up and fish, then the people are overwhelmed, and social production will also be greatly affected, the most crucial point is that the territory of the Han Dynasty has always been a whole in his eyes, and he disdains things that are transformed by war.

It is precisely because of this premise that the combat power of the Youzhou army can stand at the top of the Han Dynasty, except for the command of Cao Cao in Yanzhou, there are no princes who can be equal to it, the old fourth battalion, the iron cavalry battalion, and the second battalion of the dragon and tiger guards are even more famous in the world! But the so-called elite soldiers are by no means just these main soldiers, all states, counties and people must be strictly trained, but they are not as good as the main battle battalions, except for the Yanzhou army, Liu Yi believes that the soldiers of the counties and countries under his command and the men and horses everywhere will have the power to fight, and they are definitely not some rabble used for security patrols!

With Tian Yu's logistical support, the generals have no worries about sending troops, so even Gan Ning, Zhao Yun, Zhang He, Xu Huang and other generals are extremely polite in front of Tian Yu, of course, not for the sake of materials, in this regard, he is as iron-faced and selfless as Xi Zhicai to implement military law! And for those people, chariots and horses, the degree of care he is not inferior to the lord's treatment of soldiers.

At the front of the queue, there are two generals walking side by side, the person on the left is forty years old, with a yellow face and a long beard, and his appearance is very majestic, it is Yan Gang, the commander of the White Horse Battalion, and on his right side, he will ride a big Wan good horse, plain robe and silver armor, white face and slight beard, face like a square, eyes are bright, and he is younger than Yan Gang in terms of age, so he is naturally Gao Tingxuan, the deputy commander of the Tiger Guard Battalion.

When Liu Yi burned the Ferris Ridge to defeat Gongsun Zan and went down to Beiping, all the generals under his command were all effective, and now the highest status is this Yan Gang, only under the four generals of Gan Zhao Xu Zhang, and because of his age, he was the first of the generals in Liu Yi's army, of course, Yan Gang relied on more than just age, for Liu Yi, he was another surprise in addition to Zhang Hu, at first he did not attach much importance to this almost dragon role, but this person soon surprised him with the talent of leading and training cavalry, and he and Zhao Yun led the army to reinforce the first battle. And broke the enemy army under the pass, even Zilong also made it clear that he had learned a lot of experience from Brother Zhongfu, and he and Gan Ning had a little meaning of not knowing each other, but since that time, Xingba took the initiative to show goodwill, and the two have become more harmonious.

The attitude towards Gao Ran Yan Gang around him is more cautious, keeping this appropriate distance, of course, he will do his best to cooperate with him with the military commander, but it will take time for him to recognize this person in his heart, this is not because Gao Tingxuan is a general, Yan Gang himself is, just want to be recognized by his comrades, this person still lacks a good record, maybe this battle of Sizhou will be an opportunity, no matter how powerful his marching drill is, as a general, he still has to prove his worth on the battlefield after all, It is also the best way to be recognized by your colleagues.

Gao Ran also knew this truth in his heart, this time he went to Sizhou he was holding back a lot of strength in his heart, the main army division and General Zhang are extremely trusted, the elite of the generals can rest assured with him, if he can't make meritorious contributions, it can only mean that he is mediocre, in addition, Ju Yi has gone to Qingzhou with General Xu Huang, and he can't lose to this old comrade who joined him to serve the lord.

For Yan Gang's faint coldness, he was not annoyed in his heart, this person has a very high status in the army, and his qualifications are far deeper than his own, so he does have the qualifications to wait and see. And there is one thing in the Youzhou army that Gao Ran appreciates the most, no matter what the personal relationship is, once the military order is issued, they will cooperate seamlessly on the battlefield, he is not worried that Yan Gang will not cooperate with him because of this coldness, and this situation also makes him understand why the Youzhou army has such a strong combat power.

The team is marching neatly and silently, and suddenly there is a rapid sound of horses' hooves in front, it is impossible to encounter enemy attacks in Youzhou, and there are only three people to ride, Yan Gang and Gao Ran, who have been in battle for a long time, can easily hear the number of riders from the sound of horses' hooves, the two of them raised their right arms almost at the same time, and the soldiers behind them also stopped immediately, the long line was not chaotic at all, and the distance between the front and back played a huge role in canceling out the inertia of the march!

"General Gao, the front is the messenger soldier of our army, listening to the sound of his horse's hooves is very urgent, I think there must be an urgent military situation, I will wait and come forward to greet him!" Yan Gang can even hear the origin of the other party from the sound of horses' hooves, the good horses produced in Youzhou Horse Farm and Wuhuan Xiliang and other places will meet the needs of the communication camp in the first time, and then it will be the turn of the iron cavalry battalion, Liu Yi has always attached great importance to the speed of information transmission, and Yan Gang is familiar with the frequency of running of these good horses.

"Well, just act according to General Yan's words." Gao Ran bowed his head slightly when he heard this, this can be regarded as a gap in experience, it seems that he has to try to integrate into the Youzhou army faster, and after speaking at the moment, he and Yan Gang took more than a dozen cavalry guards to meet him! If it is an important military situation, at this time, only he and Yan Gang can know in detail, and everything must be cautious!

By the way, I admit that when I saw the name of the "G Ruthless Man" book friend in the morning, Xiao Zhuge was evil in his heart, and then he reacted, it was really impure, and the avatar of the Rubik's Cube sub-version is very similar to Liu Huan in my mind.
