said that it was a discussion, in fact, Zhou Lei said that Yuan Fang listened, Yuan Fang really didn't understand anything about logistics, this is not just as simple as sending materials to the front line, including the deployment of various materials, the scheduling of vehicle transportation, the temporary deployment of urgently needed materials, etc., all require rigorous planning and emergency plans, otherwise there will definitely be such and such problems, such as sending unwanted things to the front line, and the things urgently needed by the front line are still in the rear warehouse, and for example, the vehicle deployment is not timely, It's not that a lot of grain is sent in one go, and there is no place to put it, or that the beam trucks are all on the road, and the soldiers on the front line have no food to eat, and they are hungry to fight.

Yuan Fang didn't understand, but he would listen, and after listening to Zhou Lei's plan, Yuan Fang admired him more and more, and at the same time, he was also glad that he didn't miss such a genius because of personal grievances. In the end, Zhou Lei hesitated for a moment and said, "Doctor Yuan, I came here this time mainly to ask you for help." ”

Yuan Fang filled Zhou Lei with tea: "If there is any difficulty, just ask, we are all working for the empire, and we don't help anything." ”

Zhou Lei took a sip of tea and said: "This time our target is the two continents west of the Yuanhe Empire, a total of five counties, I don't doubt our combat effectiveness, on the contrary, I am a little worried that the speed of advance is too fast, and the logistics can't keep up, we are not temporarily occupying this time, but a long-term occupation, so that there will be more materials and personnel to be invested in the occupied area, and the logistics pressure is very great, so I want you to help and transfer more transport airships to me." ”

Yuan Fang was embarrassed and said, "I really want to help you, but I don't have that thing." ”

Zhou Lei sneered and said: "You don't have it, but the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce has it, and there are also a lot of Air Force Academies?" I'm not greedy, I don't want everything, I just want half, half. ”

Yuan Fang squinted at Zhou Lei: "You kid originally had this idea." ”

Zhou Lei smiled and said: "Isn't there really no way." ”

Yuan Fang thought for a while and said: "It's hard for me to say on the Chamber of Commerce, people also have their own transportation tasks, so they can't stop doing it because of this business, the Air Force Academy can transfer some of it, well, in this way, twenty transport airships, how about it?" ”

Zhou Lei thought for a while: "Twenty planes, barely make do, it would be better if there were more, by the way, you can also help solve it together, pilot, my manpower is really not enough." ”

Yuan Fang was stunned and said, "You are still short of manpower for logistics?" It's unlikely. ”

Zhou Lei said with a bitter face: "There was no shortage before, didn't this all go to the Air Force Academy to learn to fly an airship." ”

Yuan Fang was helpless: "Okay, I'll do my best to get you as many airships as possible." ”

Zhou Lei got up with a smile: "Then it's decided, I'll wait for your good news." ”

When sending Zhou Lei out, Yuan Fang asked, "Where is your old man?" How is everything? ”

Zhou Lei smiled bitterly and said: "He, since he resigned and came to the imperial capital, he has been uncomfortable all day long, no, he really can't stay, he went to Xizhou to find Yan Dutou two days ago, saying that he was reminiscing about the old days, I am really worried that they will fight, after all, their previous relationship was not very good." ”

Yuan Fang smiled and said: "How old are you, those unpleasantness have long passed, last time Uncle Yan didn't have an urgent matter to go back in a hurry and said that he wanted to find your father for a drink, don't worry, it's okay." ”

Seeing Zhou Lei away, Guan Xiaoyun looked at the sky and asked, "Dean, almost all of this is here, are you going to go?" ”

Yuan Fang shook his head and said: "It's early, Chen Xin and they only left today, and it will take at least ten days and half a month to get to the border of Dongzhou, plus logistics and intelligence collection and sorting, well, it will take about twenty days." ”

Guan Xiaoyun was a little dissatisfied and said: "The Yuanhe Empire is the same, knowing that it is not an opponent and still resisting something, it will not be possible to surrender directly, and it will save so many people from dying, and they will not get any benefits, why bother." ”

Yuan Fang smiled and said, "If only they had you so understanding." Speaking of this, Yuan Fang felt that he had caught something, but it was not very clear, he stopped and closed his eyes to ponder, Guan Xiaoyun found that Yuan Fang did not follow, and when he looked back, he was startled, and thought that Yuan Fang was wrong, seeing that he was thinking about things, Guan Xiaoyun closed his mouth and stayed by Yuan Fang's side.

After a while, Yuan Fang opened his eyes, his brows were tightly locked, and Guan Xiaoyun asked, "Dean, what's wrong?" ”

Yuan Fang said in a heavy tone: "We seem to have overlooked an important issue. ”

Guan Xiaoyun looked puzzled: "What's the problem?" ”

Yuan Fang shook his head: "Let's go, let's go back." ”

Back at the villa, Yuan Fang found everyone, everyone gathered in the living room, Yuan Fang expressed his worries: "I was reminded by Xiaoyun just now, I thought of a question, the Yuanhe Empire faced the siege of our three countries, not only did not surrender, but also did not actively exert diplomatic power to sue for peace, and according to intelligence, they are preparing for war, which they know cannot be done and force it, do they have any conspiracy?" Everyone looked at each other, Xiaomei and Yan Yue didn't understand this, and the two of them looked dazed.

Yu Jingqiu pondered for a moment and said, "Brother-in-law, could it be that they want to fight to the death with us?" ”

Yuan Fang frowned and asked, "Even if there is no cholera incident and the vitality is not damaged, do you think the Yuan and Empire can fight against our three countries on their own?" ”

Yu Jingqiu shook her head and said, "No." ”

Yuan Fang spread his hands and said: "This is the crux of the matter. ”

Ye Qingru disagreed: "Brother-in-law, are you thinking too much?" Let's put ourselves in their shoes, what if, I mean, if we're besieged by three powerful countries and we don't have an air force, what do you think we should do? If the peace cannot be sued, will it give up resistance and surrender directly? ”

Yuan Fang was stunned for a moment, scratched his head and said, "I shouldn't surrender, if I don't fight until the last moment, there is still hope." ”

Ye Qingru spread his hands and said: "Maybe people think the same way, besides, the army in the eastern part of the Yuanhe Empire is complete, and it is not without the strength of a war, in the face of the two countries that would rather and Wen'an, they can at least delay for a while, if there is no air force to help attack, it can even be delayed for more than half a year, and if they persist until winter, they can buy a few months of respite." ”

The thoughts in Yuan Fang's mind became clear, and he asked, "Then what?" ”

Ye Qingru said embarrassedly: "Then I don't know." ”

Guan Xiaoyun retorted: "What Sister Qingru said is not very reasonable, even if the Yuanhe Empire can block the strong attack of the Rather Empire and the Wen'an Empire, then what about us? What do they use to resist? ”

Yu Jingqiu analyzed: "With the current military strength of the Yuanhe Empire, it is the strength of the Rather Empire and the Wen'an Empire to fight, but if we divide the troops to resist our Dongsheng Empire, it will be impossible, and the transfer of troops from the east to the western border is a long way, and the transportation of materials alone is not a small problem, unless they have enough supplies in the western region." ”
