As the autumn color gets thicker, the coolness in the wind is better than day by day, and the single clothes of the soldiers are gradually changed to long clothes and robes that are more suitable for the weather.

The so-called "Hutian is snowing in August", at this time, the snow has begun to fly outside the north of the Saiwai.

In the rear, my request for an additional 11,000 plush winter coats, the same number of thick velvet cloaks, and 20,000 felt blankets has also been sent back.

Because it is very likely that the need to spend the winter in the north, the current situation of the army's armament is still a little thin and slightly underprepared, because at the beginning, only the basic needs of carrying three battalions were considered, but the reality of such a drastic expansion of the contingent was not expected, almost several times over.

Winter coat is my reference to the mature design and existing conditions of the later generations, and the shape of the special requirements, taking into account the maximum economic and applicable scale cost, the use of three layers of material and two layers of sandwich, the fabric is a wear-resistant dense thick cloth, the compartment is a kapok cage cloth, the lining is relatively breathable and soft cotton cloth, and the two layers of filling are from the cotton spinning processing scraps, recycled broken cotton wool.

There are also closures and buckles between the legs, feet and necks to prevent air leakage, and at this time, as a by-product of the expansion and development of Eucommia ulmoides rubber products, something similar to a rubber band comes in handy. Although it has formed a scale of mass production, the price has reached 3,500 yuan a piece.

The cloak is a rubberized canvas surface and a warm felt inside, which can be used to prevent rain and snow soaking, or to maintain body temperature for a longer time in the snow.

The felt blanket is the simplest, that is, a handmade product made of animal hair pounded and glued, as a cheap alternative, mainly for those auxiliary troops and baggage people, although some bulky and thick and breathable, but it can be used for many purposes, both can be used to set up tents and make artillery shelters, or as sleeping mats and covers, when needed, it can also be wrapped around the body, and temporarily warm when traveling.

Therefore, the demand for felt is also the first to get feedback from the rear, indicating that it can be directly allocated from the smuggling project in the north and appropriated first.

In addition, there are some needs for thick-soled warm shoes and socks, etc., just because of the elongation and loss of the front front, the rear supply line has also become a little tight, even if there are enough corresponding products, if you want to reach the front of the army, you also need the corresponding dispatch quota and capacity.

Before that, we can only consider raising some fabrics, cotton and linen on the spot, and make an emergency transition, which is the so-called digging three feet into the ground and searching for households.

In addition, it is to instruct the Jiangdu camp left behind to spend money to buy from the rear, whether it is silk cotton in the south of the Yangtze River, white slips in Fujian, kapok and cage cloth outside the mountains, and island cotton overseas, as long as they can keep warm.

Then hoard a large amount on the spot, whether it is for personal use or expected short-term speculation, it can come in handy, and maybe you can also make back the investment in additional winter clothes.

Along with the first batch of felt, there were also new letters from the family, mainly the development status, income and expenditure items of various livelihoods under the name of the recent period.

In the business of trafficking in the army, the plates are a little too large, and the daily maintenance expenses are still secondary, and the manpower of the corresponding management is somewhat unable to keep up.

The focus of the traffickers tends to be on the basic occupations of masonry, carpentry, and metalworking, which can be used immediately in the locality, or are specialized personnel who produce corresponding value, even if they are apprentices with some experience.

Of course, it would be better for more high-end doctors, scribes, scholars, etc., which had a direct gain effect on my family's reclamation of the outer islands.

Nowadays, the breeding industry near Jilong Mountain in the north of Yizhou is also booming, including not only general grain fruit and vegetable products, animal feed, pig raising, chicken raising, duck raising, rabbit raising, and sheep raising. It even has its own fleet of offshore fishing vessels as a major source for the canning industry.

It's just that behind the glamour of career prosperity, there is always a little dark side,

In the new letter, it was mentioned that someone seemed to have set their sights on some of the technologies that our family had mastered, and actually spent a lot of money to bribe the internal personnel in an attempt to secretly send some things out.

Although with Bo Fu's cooperation, the outstretched claws have been cut off, and a medium-sized trading company has been set on fire, killing many people from top to bottom.

But under the temptation of lucrative profits, what kind of moths will come out next time, therefore, the mysterious creature intends to plan and purposefully leak some specious things to let the other party take a detour.

In addition, with the increasing prosperity of smuggling by sea and land, there is also a potential hidden danger of my family on the sea route, and the absconding sea lord - Nanhai Shisanlang has been unable to trigger it, which makes people a little faintly worried.

The underground business that developed on the old crab's side, although it is very rapid and large-scale, but after all, the time is still shallow, and it has not been able to touch the root of the maritime smuggler group headed by this thirteen langs for a while.

No matter how prosperous the smuggling business on land and sea is, it is a thorn stuck in the heart, as the saying goes, "there is only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no thousand days to prevent thieves."

However, the north-south sea route traveled more and more, and finally in the Yizhou-Borneo joint ship regiment, a group of relatively reliable skilled sailors and escort armies were trained one after another.

Then, there are the enigmatic creatures, the daily chores that have recently given their own nicknames to the girls in the family

For example, my cheap sister Ah Lu has become what she calls "Luo Rolling", a title full of national treasure style, to commemorate her daily life when she likes to hold something and roll on the wooden floor when she gets upset.

And squatting with her head in her arms has become a "cute bun", because she encounters any difficult problems, and the expression of her bitter little face is easy to look like a puffer fish, or a hamster that has eaten too much, puffing out her little cheeks,

As for the stupid Luo Ameng, it is not surprising that it is still the "snack goods".

Then there was the strong reaction to me sending the woman back.

I can almost imagine her baring her teeth and claws, making a Führer roar, something like "you poke someone and send them home."

"My mother is learning human resource management, not harem management",

"You provoke trouble outside, you are cool for a while, and you will throw a woman to me, what do you mean, don't you think the old lady is not busy enough?"

In the following days, the so-called east and west are sandwiched, cut off from inside and outside, Chuqiu, Shanfu, Yucheng, and Yangshan in Songzhou have been agitated down one after another, and many of them have arrived only to find that the defenders have fled, and the city has taken advantage of the chaos to plunder the scene.

During this period, Zhang Xian turned to the north, and also fought a battle outside Chengwu Town with the coalition forces from Caozhou and Hunzhou from the north.

"The rest of the Hedong Army in the territory is gone......"

When our army only used a regiment of vanguard to capture the stronghold near Haozhou, Xiayi City, I received such a reward.

Tong guò confessed that the Hedong soldiers captured in Song City, the state, they were originally subordinate to the guest army, the original Hantai Department of Jiuyuan Town, Hedong Province, this name made me have some mixed feelings, and I was awe-inspiring and vigilant,

This was the first unit of the Northern Army with decent combat effectiveness that we encountered after crossing the Huai, and their dense and tenacious offensive and orderly tactics left a deep impression on us.

If not, our army occupies the geographical advantage of waiting for work and preemptively presetting the battlefield, and I don't know what price and result it will have to pay.

It's just gone, is there any conspiracy and change in this?

At the same time, Pengcheng, Xuzhou,

At the regular meeting of the Frontier Military Division, several bigwigs gathered together to review the gains and losses, discuss the deployment, and then with the establishment of the dispatch and distribution of various departments, someone who was newly in the limelight once again became a new topic for these high-ranking commanders.

After all, compared with most of the troops who gathered in Xuzhou to fight and die, an army that was free on the periphery accidentally opened a world across several states.

"The left wing of the new army has taken Songzhou? ……”

"They've run so far......"

"What should we do about the defense of Chenzhou and Xuzhou...... Do you need us to transfer someone to fill ......?"

"Entering the army without authorization, and the battle line, involving and destroying the overall deployment of the commander,"

"This felony of disobedience, I finally can't get rid of it......"

"Say it's disobedience......"

"Their battle line, it's hard to understand, shouldn't it be in the state...... At least it's hundreds of miles westward."

"Besides, after all, it's an unintentional move that doesn't know Shuaiji's intentions......"

"As a handsome minister, I can't rashly do things that are not taught and ......punished."

"How can anyone let this generation lead the commander to go, wouldn't he encourage the ministries to be arbitrary,"

"Where is the system of the country, and where is the majesty of the commander...... No police can be effective unless severely punished......"

"The right wing of the new army, isn't it from the order of the commander to move outside......

"If it is serious, I am afraid that the officers and soldiers of all armies will be afraid of war......"

"It's good to be independent and win the land of three states for the dynasty......"

The consequence of the court dispute being brought to the Military Department is that the specific disposition of the parties and the department has been fruitless and continues to run aground in a dispute that does not give in.

But for some people who are obsessed, there are actually other indirect ways and means to achieve the goal.
