[You can't change it every day, you have to work hard. 】

Han Gang felt that five thousand to ten thousand should be almost the limit of both sides, just as Zhi Keshi speculated, it was not very likely that more or less.

"Be as the scripture says."

Zhe Keshi's eyes were lowered, hiding the surprise that flashed in his eyes. Although Han Gang's judgment came from himself, after listening to the analysis, he got the answer in an instant, which shows that he has a deep understanding of military affairs, and he is the so-called famous and solid.

"Yes...... Could it be that the divination people sneaked in to help in private, but they were bribed by the thieves and did not get Yelu Yixin's permission? Huang Shang's questioning was a little lacking in confidence at first, but after he glanced at Zhi Keshi, his momentum rose inexplicably: "From this, the number of troops of that gang of thieves can also be explained, and the reason for hiding their heads and tails can be found." ”

"This may not be ruled out...... If that's the reason, it would be great. Han Gang smiled, Huang Shang seemed to be targeting Zhi Keshi, this literati's contempt for martial artists seemed to be almost deep-rooted, "...... Still, things have to be prepared for the worst. At least it doesn't get any worse no matter how it changes, and it wouldn't be nice if it were the other way around. ”

Huang Sheng was silent for a while.

"Those Divination tribes don't have that much courage!" Zhi Keshi glanced at Huang Sheng with three points of dissatisfaction and seven points of coldness, if he wasn't Han Gang's staff, what qualifications did he have to intervene in this matter? Huang Shang is Han Gang's staff, and he really has to save three points of face, but Zhi Keshi can't bear it, and it's just a trivial matter, how can such a militaristic matter be said by a nerd: "If it was just a few small tribes who blocked the divination and sent troops to help each other privately, they would not come to attack Fengzhou, which is close to Xijing Road." Otherwise, once the incident happens, they will have to die dead. It can only be Yelu Yixin, the old thief who steals the country is cunning and obstructs the appearance of diviners, but it is just a means he uses to blackmail the court. ”

As soon as Han Gang saw that Zhe Keshi was-for-tat, he sighed in his heart, this Zhe Keshi was really young and vigorous. was about to make a round, but saw Huang Shang arch his hand, bowed his head to Zhi Keshi and said, "Huang Shang has been taught." ”

Huang Shang's sincere and teachable attitude is very personable, but from the perspective of adaptability, it is tantamount to adding to his blockage. However, Oshichiro, who was born in a family, is still very good at dealing with such a scene, and immediately returned the salute, "Thank you Xiucai for your guidance and pointing out the omissions below." ”

The two of them said one sentence and three or two sentences, as if they had resolved the mustard between the two, and they laughed and laughed.

Han Gang saw everything in his eyes, and he admired them a little bit, if they fought against Mai Mang, it would be disappointing, but fortunately it was not like this. But it's time to stop, Han Gang doesn't have time to chat with the two idlers, and he just wants to hear the details of the Fengzhou Massacre case, not to ask for Zhe Keshi's opinion.

Regarding the current war situation in the northwest involving all three countries, it would be too much to talk about it, and this is not a topic that Zhe Keshi and Huang Shang are qualified to mix. Even if Han Gang wanted to deal with this, he should have summoned the main officials and generals of the Hedong Road Economic Strategy Division to discuss the matter, and then suggested it to the imperial court. Gathering the wisdom of everyone is the right way, but it is not just a matter of just finding two people to discuss a few words, patting their heads and making a decision.

He summoned his subordinates to come in and ordered soup. After drinking the drink, he got up and said goodbye. This is to order soup to send off guests.

Zhi Keshi left, Han Gang sipped on the warm incense, frowning and thinking about the current situation. Huang Shang didn't dare to disturb and quietly stood aside.

At present, I don't know what kind of reaction the Daodao Imperial Court had to do to the appearance of the diviners, this is definitely to be reported by writing a chapter, and even having to ask for guilt in the chapter - Fengzhou and Linzhou were both under the rule of Hedong, and the villages were slaughtered, and Han Gang could not escape the blame.

Raising his eyes, he instructed Huang Sheng and said, "Mian Zhong, you help me draw up a petition form, I have to give an explanation for the affairs of Feng and Lin." ”

This is the right reason, Huang Shang didn't say much, stood up, and said yes, but went to the inner hall to find pen and ink to write the seal.

Han Gang was the only one left, and the calm smile that had been maintained on his face finally couldn't be maintained. Gritting his teeth, a voice burst out from between his teeth: "Lu Huiqing! Xu Xi! ”

After confirming that Xu Xi was going to guard Yanzhou, Han Gang wrote a note of exhortation despite the fact that he was only a Hedong Jinglu rather than an official in Shaanxi, hoping that he would have time to save the situation. But now that the obstruction has appeared, Han Gang understands that the situation is like a rushing flood that breaks the embankment, and it is no longer just a few sandbags that can be plugged.

If it weren't for Lu Huiqing and Xu Xi's greed, there would be no need to worry about thousands of obstructors. Han Gang was not even worried that the Liao people would send troops to help Western Xia attack Xiazhou and Yinzhou - the logistics system of the Dangxiang people simply could not support too many troops. And the longer the supply line, the more likely it is to be attacked in the middle.

When there is not much difference in combat power between the two sides, logistics is everything. Placing the key point of the war in Yanzhou is tantamount to exposing its shortcomings. But at this time, it doesn't make sense to regret or complain.

Han Gang and Zhe Keshi's inference about the divination blockers, after the other kind of people found them, they would definitely be able to make the same judgment. But do you dare to take the risk? Will he be able to convince the generals below to take the risk? Han Gang was not at all sure about the seeds.

When the Khitans tried to loot the villages on the periphery of Xicheng Village before, if the Song army guarding Yanmen Village had the courage and strength, they could go out of the village to face the battle, and smashed the ambitions of the Khitans in a dignified manner, and Xiao Shisan, who was far away in Shuozhou City, could not be rescued. It's a pity that even Han Gang can't give this order, he has no confidence in the soldiers and horses in Hedong, and the people below probably don't dare to obey.

…… That's right, come to mind. Han Gang suddenly realized that the news of blocking the people going south, did he know the Dao or not? In case they haven't bumped into yet, there's still time to get them ready. I have to send someone to inform Yan Yanlu as soon as possible, I don't know if Lu Dao can still be in time. In addition, the urgent military situation report sent to the capital should also be written and sent out as soon as possible, and there should be no further delay.

But back to the current battle situation, we can only look at the follow-up for the time being. The key to this battle may have to return to Yinzhou and Xiazhou. Han Gang thought.

The petition form to the capital and the urgent report of the military situation were sent out at the same time, and the urgent letter reminding the seed was also sent to Yanyan by horse. In addition, the military states on the east and west sides of the river were told to take precautions, and Han Gang also arranged for it at the same time.

As soon as a few things were done, for a while, Han Gang seemed to be idle, and for two days in a row, nothing major happened in government affairs and military affairs.

Although there are still a lot of things at hand, after the busy past few months, Han Gang's work is on the right track, but ninety percent of his previous energy is biased towards the military aspect. The government affairs of Taiyuan Mansion still have many places that urgently need his attention.

Needless to say, the autumn tax and this year's winter sowing must also start preparations - the key is to rationally allocate and deploy manpower. A month or two later, when wheat cultivation began, the war was likely to be at its most intense, and at that time, a large number of people had to be mobilized in Hedong. Don't be ready in front of you, and when the time comes, you'll be in trouble. In case of a big reduction in taxes in Taiyuan next year, the first one who can't help but settle accounts after the autumn may even be the Son of Heaven.

But the use of the people is inevitable. It is indeed not difficult to transfer grain and grass when there are ships in the south, but Taiyuan, where the roads of the Quartet always turn in the mountains, can only rely on manpower. Every time Hedong is in battle, there will always be people who flee or leave with their families. On the road of transshipment, more recruited people have to struggle on the death line every day.

Han Gang didn't want to drive the people like this, the efficiency was too low. He was also thinking about how to use as few conscripts as possible as a support. Right now, there's a ready-made solution – orbit.

The east of the river is a mountainous area and a basin, and if the track is to be laid here to achieve the purpose of connecting the north and the south, Hangang does not expect to succeed in ten years. However, if the track is laid in the basin, and then the old mountain road is used in the mountainous area, in this way, the people recruited for logistics and transportation can be concentrated in several sections of the mountainous area, which can save a lot of manpower and animal power.

However, Han Gang gave up after thinking about it, such a track can only be used by the military, and the cost of civilian use is too high to be compensated for with commercial income. Moreover, if you want to build a long-distance track, you need at least a year to conduct a preliminary survey, determine the route, and make a budget plan. There has been no movement in the Hebei track so far, on the one hand, it is affected by the war, and on the other hand, it is also because the preliminary survey has not been completed. But there is no way to come in handy in this war, and wait until after the war to build the track, it is better to spend some time and try to lay it together with the mountain road.

In the case that the Hebei track has not yet succeeded, and there is a lack of sufficient experience and talents, the matter of the Hedong track can only be put aside for the time being. Han Gang is now in government affairs, in addition to the obligations of a prefect, he also pays attention to the coal and iron in Hedong.

Grain production is limited by the amount of land and cannot be changed for a while. But in primitive industry, the situation is much better.

Steel is the key to industrialization, Han Gang hopes that more than a dozen roads in the Great Song Dynasty can have a coal and steel complex, at least in a few large areas, there is enough steel output - this is still very promising, the steel plant with an annual output of 10,000 tons in the future is the goal of shutting down and turning, but at the moment, it is a country's annual output. With a 10,000-ton coal and steel complex, the demand for ore and coal is not high, and suitable places can basically be found in the southeast, northwest and northwest of the Great Song Dynasty.

Shanxi is floating on coalfields. Later generations Han Gang heard this sentence more than once. When he heard the name Shuozhou, Han Gang remembered the Pingshuo open-pit coal mine in later generations. It's a pity that Shuozhou is now with the Liao. The volcanic fire pit in Datong, Han Gang has heard about it several times here in Taiyuan, and many people regard it as a strange thing. The phenomenon of spontaneous combustion of coal seams proves that there are also open-pit coal deposits near Datong, but unfortunately it is also occupied by the Liao State. But here in Hedong, there is still coal and iron, and there has long been production, although the scale is not large, but it is not difficult to expand.

Han Gang hoped that when he left Hedong, he would leave behind a large enough steel factory. If there is more money, it is a fat sheep, and if there is more steel, it is a weapon to deter neighboring countries.

Just when Han Gang ordered people to collect information on the iron ore of Hedong Coal Mine, Li Xianzhong returned to Taiyuan.
