This is not a fantasy world where one person can kill 10,000 people, but a real ancient time, without the power of that terrifying 10,000-strong enemy, there is no way to have a complete impact on the battlefield.

Otherwise, it's basically better than someone's army.

Li Hang nodded at the border. "This is our border guard, think about it, how many soldiers are in a border guard, almost hundreds of thousands of soldiers are distributed in these border areas. How many steamed buns can be eaten by more than 100,000 people every day is converted into flour, how many catties of flour do you think this is? ”

More than 100,000 people, each person eats 6 big steamed buns every day, which is at least two or three catties of flour consumption, which is still light, you must know that in this era when there is no oil and water, many people eat steamed buns are estimated to eat more than 10.

That is to say, at least five pounds of flour, if you multiply this number, then what will happen?

Hundreds of thousands of pounds of flour.

As soon as he calculated it, he was dumbfounded.

"A carriage can only pull a few hundred catties of goods, do you calculate, how much food does these border troops need to consume in a day, how many wagons and people need to be mobilized, and how much do they need to consume in a year?"

Hundreds of thousands of catties need thousands of carriages, and if it is a people's husband, at least tens of thousands of people's husbands must be able to ensure that there is food every day, and if it needs a long-term supply, at least hundreds of thousands of people are needed to replenish it.

Counting the food and clothing of the cattle and these people......

Heheda, it is estimated that the prepared grain will cost one million catties to calculate.

Combined, it is equivalent to about fifty tons of flour.

And that's just flour, not anything else, if you count supplies and other things.

"Think about it for yourself, you only need to think about fighting in the front, but how difficult it will be to get these supplies in the rear." Li Hang said that he almost made this kid understand. "If there is a boat, this is okay, a boat can transport hundreds of catties of things, and there is no need to eat, which is much better than mules and horses, and this must also be troublesome, so do you still think this is simple?"

Yinglu was dumbfounded.

It's not a lot if you don't count it, but once you really count it, how much power it will have.

To support a border army, how much support is needed, which he still does not understand.

"Besides, the cost of conscription, pensions, salaries, equipment, and repairs for various fortifications, raising an army is astronomical!" Li Hang sighed after speaking.

In ancient times, it was actually very painful, because you had to ensure a large number of border troops, not to mention tens of thousands of troops, if the central army did not have enough troops maintained locally, then it could only be decentralized, which led to the growth of those squire families, relying on the high degree of autonomy of the local grassroots to carry out the promotion. In reality, however, when it is time for self-government, it becomes a pit in the full sense of the word.

Because of this, taxes were high in those years, especially on grain.

Yinglu was completely dumbfounded.

At this time, Li Hang was completely stunned when he said this.

His math is not so good, but from Li Hang's statement, it is simply terrible, because as soon as this kind of thing is calculated, as soon as he breaks his fingers, he quickly finds that his family's property does not seem to be able to supply the burden of a border army, and the consumption of this border army is almost borne by the state.

"If you want the south to carry out scheduling, and the north does not carry out construction, then it will be very troublesome, so this is why you want to dispatch in Beiping County, and this is also the reason why you want to develop shipping, if a big ship can transport hundreds of catties of things, then if it is that kind of sea ship, then it is not for nothing to transport thousands of catties or even tens of thousands of catties." Li Hang said, then picked up the two notes that were placed on the table, and then put them in the oil lamp in the room and lit them.

Frightened by the firelight, his face looked even more strange.

"Then Li Hang, your knighthood is just a move of His Majesty?" Ying Lu gasped, if it weren't for what Li Hang said, it is estimated that they would not be able to think of it even if they wanted to break their heads, and they still thought it was something given by Li Hang.

Then the child immediately reflected. "But why you? You ......"

In Yinglu's eyes, even if there is a family that is more suitable than Li Hang to sit in this position.

At least they have all kinds of strength in manpower, and they can easily solve the problem of building this kind of fiefdom, Li Hang is almost not alone, almost relying on the border army to support the entire vein, you say let him control the territory?

The next day, Yinglu was silent.

It's like you're thinking about something.

"Why, do you think we're going to find the Black Tiger, and it's going to be very troublesome?" Li Hang joked about this Yinglu.

"Didn't you say someone was going to kill you? Why are you still so calm? Ying Lu looked at Li Hang curiously, if he knew that someone was going to kill him, he estimated that he would hide at home, and then let the guards at home guard the door until that person died.

"I'm moving now, if the other party wants to kill me, they must follow me, and at this time, as long as they want to follow us, they need to follow all the way, not only Wang Dali, but also your two are vigilant about whether anyone is following us, so they will not choose this time if they want to kill me." Li Hang had a reassuring expression on his face, and then looked ahead.

This black tiger is very close to this Qiaoling Town, and the village where he is located is only a day's journey away from this town, and it is estimated that it will take three or four days if someone beats him.

As soon as the group arrived at the gate of the village, Li Hang saw the black tiger with someone to greet him.

"Mr. Li!" The black tiger threw his hand at Li Hang, he was very grateful to Li Hang, after all, Qiao Wanli came for him that day.

At this time, Li Hang stood up, and they were all preparing to clash on both sides.

But in the end, he was fooled by Li Hang with his name.

At this time, when he saw Li Hang again, he was naturally more polite.

"Black Tiger, I also want to ask you something this time." Li Hang frowned, and then spoke.

"That guy named Qiao Wanli, why did he want to trouble you, why did you ambush there that day, and who did you receive?"

The black tiger's face was slightly red. "This Qiao Wanli must be for the money in our village, you must know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wanted to send a lot of money, saying that it was to help us get through the difficulties, but Qiao Wanli didn't send it all when he took it at that time. When I went to get it, I beat his men to get it. I guess he wants revenge, but this ambush ......"

After speaking, he took out a piece of paper, and this piece of paper was different from what Jin Feng gave him at the beginning.

Not the handiwork of one person!
