"From here to Xiangping in eastern Liaodong, there are three main rivers. and two secondary rivers, we need to build five iron bridges, otherwise the train will stop here and not move. Bridge engineer Guo Tai said.

"Yes. That's right. Li Hang nodded and said.

"The construction of the whole railway is not very difficult, but the difficulty is the five iron bridges. It's just that is it difficult to build this iron bridge? Li Hang asked.

"As long as there are enough engineering raw materials, it's enough." Guo Tai said.

"The construction project is not very difficult, and most importantly, the width of the river is not very large, which is suitable for the construction of iron bridges. If the river were wider, we wouldn't be able to build such an iron bridge. The strength of iron has exceeded its limits. Guo Tai said.

"The construction of these iron bridges is very fast. They can all be machined directly from the iron factory and then spliced together using a large number of screws. The problem will be solved very quickly. This is in line with the requirements of the military. Guo Tai said with a smile.

"Yes, this is in line with the military's requirements, but our construction speed cannot keep up." Li Hang said worriedly.

"Why?" Guo Tai asked puzzled.

"Well, you can take a look at the Yan people who have been recruited, whether they are highly motivated to work." Li Hang looked at Guo Tai and said. Guo Tai quickly looked at the Yan people who were hurrying up to work, their slow workers, if it weren't for the whipping of those soldiers on patrol, the progress of the project would be even slower.

"I've seen their food. They only have two meals a day, and they work very hard, and they work sixteen hours a day, and I have seen cases of eighteen hours. Li Hang said worriedly.

"I'm very worried about building such a railway with such a high level of efficiency." Li Hang said.

"Well, but we can't help it, our job is to plan the route of the project and solve the problems that may be encountered. None of this is something we can solve. Guo Tai said.

"But don't forget. There is also a military issue involved, and the coalition forces are currently on the offensive. They need a huge amount of logistical support from the railway, which is related to their logistical supply, and if we can't speed up the project because of these people, it will have a very big impact on us. Li Hang said to Guo Tai.

"What do you think?" Guo Tai asked.

"My view is that by reflecting this matter to the above, at least let them solve the problem. Otherwise, our logistical supplement is a problem. If the military blames it, our problem will be big. Li Hang said. Hearing this, Guo Tai nodded in agreement.

Qi Binhai District.

"Those are all Goguryeo?" A stevedore in the coastal area was wiping his sweat and suddenly saw several people dressed very strangely, but he still recognized these people as Goguryeo, because he had seen these Goguryeo costumes before.

"What's wrong? Quick to work? A middle-aged man slapped the stevedore on the back and said.

"No, not much. I'm just wondering, what are these Goguryeo people doing here? The stevedore said suspiciously.

"What, of course I'm here to buy something. These people, they will only buy things, they will not do anything else. The middle-aged man said self-righteously.

"Buying something? What can they buy, take the ginseng in exchange? The stevedore asked.

"Nonsense, you kid read the newspaper a lot, haven't you heard those who say the newspaper? Now the Goguryeo people are fighting with the Yan people, this munition is very expensive, it is impossible to expect these Goguryeo people to make it themselves, they still have to import from us, import a large amount of ammunition, muskets. We're just going to make this kind of deal, and here comes the deal. We can get to work. The middle-aged man said disdainfully.

"Oh. I understand. The stevedore nodded in understanding.

"It's just, isn't this helping the Goguryeo people to fight our own people?" The stevedore asked, skeptically.

"The people of the Yan Kingdom are the same as us, if we sell arms to the Goguryeo people, aren't they the ones who let them beat us?" The stevedore asked.

"Don't think about it. Hurry up and get to work. These things are not something you and I can figure out. The middle-aged man said.

"Yes." The stevedore hurried to work, and although he was surprised by the Goguryeo people who appeared on the docks in the coastal area of Qi Kingdom, he didn't say anything because he was just strange. As the middle-aged man said, this matter is not something he can manage.

In fact, trade between Qi and the Goguryeo people was restored, and the Qi State imported a large amount of leather, ginseng, and other goods from the Goguryeo people. And the Qi people bought a large amount of arms from the Wei people to sell, mainly ammunition. Ammunition is expendable. The ammunition consumption of the Goguryeo people was staggering, but there was no place to replenish it, and it was not enough to capture it on the battlefield. In order to solve this problem, the Goguryeo people could only buy these ammunition with a large number of specialties in their hands.

In addition to ammunition, there were also a number of muskets, which came from Korea, but they were still relatively expensive, so the trade volume of muskets was smaller, but the quantity was still considerable, and these goods brought great benefits to the tight finances of the Qi country. But Qi didn't care at all about the allied military operations between Qin, Zhao, Korea, and Yan. In their opinion, it doesn't matter at all.

"If the issue of the railroad is not resolved, the situation of the war will be unfavorable to the coalition forces." Li Mu said solemnly as he looked at the map on the wall.

"At present, the Yanguo Railway is proceeding very slowly, and the problem is very big." Li Mu said.

"Prime Minister, I think the problem is still the problem of people." Li Zuoche said.

"Why do you say that?" Li Mu asked.

"The people of Yan are lazy, they are not willing to contribute, so the progress of the project is very slow." Li Zuoche said.

"Hehe, I don't know where you heard that. But I don't think that's the problem, it's the money. Li Mu said.

"The Yan government has no money, and those people are all recruited, not only collected, but also not paid. What do you do in such a situation? Li Mu said.

"So, the problem is not in the people, but in the money, if the people of Yan have enough funds, the construction of this railway will be accelerated." Li Mu said.

"But the problem of money is not something we can solve, and it needs to be solved by all countries." Li Mu said.

"But the logistics are really important." Li Mu said worriedly.
