283 marches are difficult

"Yes." Shang Wen replied.

"How to accomplish it is your business, I am only responsible for logistics and supply." Shang Wen said.

"That's right. General Wang, it is best to complete the assembly in seven days. In this way, the potential of the new army can be tapped. Shang Wen said.

"Seven days?" Wang Jian exclaimed again.

"Yes, seven days. You just have to give orders, and it's up to them how the army assembles. Shang Wen said.

"This, this I'm afraid." Wang Jian said eagerly. From Xianyang, to Tiger Prison. A large army reached in seven days. It's basically the limit. When it comes, it won't have any combat power.

"I know, General Wang, there are some things that don't force you to know how much potential they have. You know what I saw on my way back from the north. I Daqin appeared a lot of carriages almost overnight, how many of these carriages, I don't know, in short, there are still thousands, if it is applied properly. There should be no problem in moving a large army, and how to command is the business of those commanders, which is called entrusted management. Shang Wen said.

"Delegated management." Wang Jian asked.

"Yes, don't worry, boldly put the burden on them. It's urgent. You can think of anything. Shang Wen said.

"Well, well. I'll give it a try. Wang Jian said.

The order was quickly sent to the newly formed 1st Musket Division, the 1st Musketeer Cavalry Brigade. The order has just been given. The whole army was in an uproar. Seven days. From Xianyang to Tiger Pass.

"Isn't it crazy up there? How is it possible in seven days. I also let myself watch it. "When a battalion commander received the order, he almost jumped up.

"Even if you fly, you can't fly so far." A company commander complied.

"The cavalry has horses, but we are infantry. Infantry. That's it. As he spoke, another company commander patted his thigh and said.

In such a situation, these grassroots officers quickly executed it mechanically. They first assembled their own companies. Then an order was given to prepare the whole army. Open immediately.

The First Musketeer went into battle in such a hurry. Logistics has not yet had time to be managed. I didn't even know who to look for, and the whole army was pulled out. The first is the soldier's personal gear.

Because the whole army was armed with muskets. So, the amount of equipment for the entire soldier was very light. All the soldier had to do was carry a gun on his or her back. Although it carries more bullets, it is much lighter than the previous armor. And the armor has been completely discarded. The new uniforms did not match the previous armor at all. The soldiers were almost lightly armed.

The order was given in the morning. At noon, the army was on its way in a hurry. It didn't take long for the problem to arise, noon had arrived, and the army needed to start a fire on the spot to cook, but logistical supplies. No one greeted or reported, because the whole army was busy with dotting. It's time. There is nothing to eat.

Meng Wu was the military commander in charge of the exercise. This is the military commander. Nor did he encounter anything like this. When he received the order, he was first surprised, then shocked. I don't think it's stupid. Or maybe it's crazy. Reach the Tiger Prison Pass within seven days. In a hurry, it was a last resort. The order was given urgently, and then the whole army quickly moved out. The problem of logistics was forgotten by the rapid march.

The problem was quickly reflected to Wang Jian here. Wang Jian shook his head. Shang Wen happened to be there. Shang Wen was dragged to the staff headquarters by Wang Qian.

See this issue. Shang Wen also shook his head.

"It is imperative that these logistical issues be resolved as quickly as possible. As for the question, I will talk about it later. Wang Jian said.

"There are several big cart and horse shops in Xianyang, so they can arrange vehicles to transport grain and grass. That's it. Shang Wen said.

"Yes. OK. I told someone to do it immediately. Wang Jian said.

said. Wang Jian immediately ordered.

"Old general. It seems that no. The General Staff has to play its part. Shang Wen said.

"Oh. Is there a good plan for you, sir? Wang Jian asked.

"That's all there is to it. First of all, we must ask whether the several carriage and horse shops in Xianyang can arrange for the carriage and horses to be responsible for our logistics, which is the most important thing, and we will adopt the method of competitive bidding to let them be given priority to our military rations. Then, to see if they have any extra carriages, arrange for our army to go in carriages. Shang Wen said.

"Yes, is this possible?" Wang Jian asked.

"It should work. At present, many carriages and horses in Xianyang City use heavy-duty four-wheeled carriages, transporting eight soldiers at a time, and they try to squeeze as much as possible. There should be no problem. Shang Wen asked.

"Okay. I'll give it a try. Wang Jian said.

"But the bid?" Wang Jian asked. "That is, we give money, and we will use whomever they offer at the lowest price." Shang Wen immediately asked.

"Oh well. This matter has Mr. Lao Qin. Wang Jian said.

"But these problems have not been solved yet." Shang Wen said.

"It hasn't been solved yet. Oh. I understand. Wang Jian first looked at Shang Wen in puzzlement, and then suddenly realized that the main purpose of this exercise was to see the problems exposed by the Qin army.

"Sir, please." Wang Jian clenched his fists and said.

"First of all, this army of more than 10,000 people did not set up a staff department at the beginning, and in peacetime, it arranged and planned some specific marching routes. Just in case. Now suddenly give the order. The whole army was overwhelmed. Shang Wen said.

"Yes, yes. It's not enough to have this staff alone, there should be sub-offices below. Wang Jian said.

"In addition, the army should not be biased towards attack power, and should also work logistics, and specially equip some chariots and horses for the army. Supplies can be transported in peacetime, but also a large number of combat personnel can be transported in emergency situations. Shang Wen said.

"Yes." Wang Jian nodded thoughtfully.

"There is also the army's emergency supplies, which should always be kept in reserve for a certain period of time, so that they can be mobilized all at once. There's no need to be so troublesome, and we have to arrange for temporary personnel to be transferred. This also gives us a certain amount of time to react. Shang Wen said.

"Yes, yes." Wang Jian said.

"However, a question will come back soon." Shang Wen said.

"What's the problem?" Wang Jian asked.

"Traffic. Such a large army ran out at once, the cavalry maneuvered quickly, the infantry could not keep up, and a road was blocked at once. In addition, from Xianyang to Hugaoguan, there was no highway at all. This time. Something must be wrong. Shang Wen said.

In fact, this question has already arisen. Commanded to be reached. The cavalry was okay to say, leisurely preparing. The infantry hurried on the road, waiting for the cavalry to travel. The infantry was already waiting on the side of the road to eat. Plus artillery artillery was placed on the side of the road. The problem came out all at once.
