Section 114 Extraction
What is going to start?
Of course, it is necessary to start to officially face the entire Oriental world, in fact, it is tens of thousands of miles from East Africa to the hinterland of Central Asia, but at most it is a glimpse of the scenery, it is a bit far-fetched to say that it is a tourist, at least senior tourists will also investigate the so-called folk customs and the like, Lao Luo at most is in Constantinople to focus on staying.
As for the collection of the Sylvan Tang people and the Han people living in Central Asia, it can only be regarded as a matter that coincides with their hands, and of course, there is no lack of preliminary planning for the future settlement in the East, not to mention any use, and the two sides or parties can be regarded as mutually beneficial to each other. As for these Turks and Qarluqs along the way, Lao Luo didn't want to entangle with them more, because it didn't make sense, at least now the time was not right.
Speaking of the Qarluqs, no one has been able to find out what the Qarluqs are planning to do, and no one has received any news from the Turks, Li Zheng went to Samarkand once after the Spring Festival, and all he heard there was some disturbing and chaotic news, which had nothing to do with military affairs.
So from the time the snow began to melt, until the Dragon Boat Festival, Kuzak City was quiet for three months.
In fact, it is said to be quiet, but there is no outsider attack, and Kuzak is restless every day.
From the day I started to move in, the first was the training of the soldiers of the garrison battalion, and then the whole people were dispatched except for serious illnesses who could not move, and there were always rehearsals and drills every day, and there were also large groups of powerful guys wielding knives or stabbing spears, and occasionally there were crisp shouts of the women's army, the knives used by the women were lighter, in addition, some people with better talents also practiced throwing knives and the like, and the women who lived in Central Asia since childhood were not much worse than the men.
With the passage of the Qingming Festival and the opening of the Syr Darya, the snow on the ground gradually melted, and Kuzak's external traffic was fully restored, but the team still could not leave for the time being, because every spring windy day came, and the south and north winds staggered back and forth every day, and the floating cars could not be allowed to move forward.
There was no good solution, so Lao Luo had to agree with everyone to start after the Dragon Boat Festival.
Of course, this also has an advantage, after a long period of training and running-in, these more than 80,000 people can now be called all soldiers. The results of the training of the civilians were gratifying, not only did they rob a lot more on horseback than before, but they were also able to operate the side vans operated by the soldiers of the garrison battalion.
Otherwise, time is the best weapon, not only to consume everything, but also to evolve everything.
Of course, the key is to grasp it, otherwise it may slip from your fingers at any time like fine sand.
Two months before the Dragon Boat Festival, Kuzak began to prepare for the continuation of the road. This has become a routine work, and everyone is familiar with it. Lao Luo stared at the training of the soldiers everywhere, and the rest of the purchase of food, maintenance of equipment, and maintenance of horses were completely taken care of by others, which finally freed him from trivial matters.
After all, the army is Lao Luo's main job, isn't it?
Half a month before the Dragon Boat Festival, some unimportant woodcarvings began to be dismantled - the wood was cut, anyway, Lao Luo's space was huge, and more wood was nothing, so it wouldn't stay and sell the city again, right?
In fact, Lao Luo has already put this place in the direction of future development, just like he once said to Li Xuan, he will come back one day.
As for whether the baby space is too luxurious to use to hold wood and the like, Lao Luo never considers it, practicality is the best, he wants to install titanium alloy space station substrates, and he has to have it. What's more, the vegetation in the Yellow River Basin was not rich after going east, and even if there were still ancient trees in this era, it was better to keep some of them.
The day after the full moon in May, the weather was fine, in fact, there were no windy sunny weather for the last few days, the horses, camels, carts, vans, floating cars were all in place, a team drove outward, the front end of the team had begun to turn west to north, and the four-wheeled cart at the end of the team was still in the final commissioning.
The city of Kuzak had been demolished, and the timber markings of each woodcarved corrugated building were numbered and trapped together, and Lao Luo walked by casually, and the piles of timber disappeared in an instant.
"Every time I see the general's method, I don't feel like a human being......" Stan, the logistics chief of Lao Luo, who stayed at the end, and a bunch of "bookkeepers" under him. At this moment, Alki, the henchman next to Stan and Lao Luo, is counting the numbering order of the cars one by one.
"What do you want to do so much? It is not our concern to take care of the Lord's affairs, but to do the things at hand well. Speaking of scheming, Olqui was much stronger than Stan, and he glanced at the big man next to him, "In the future, there will be more and more people around the general, don't you notice that now those Seris people are a little dissatisfied with the general always keeping us around?" ”
"Seems to be, right?" Stan is most concerned about all kinds of treasures, what other people think, he never cares, "What's the matter with us?" What the Lord will do, of course, will decide for himself, and no one can interfere. ”
“…… You ......" Alki was choked by Stan, "go, check your baby, you bear head." ”
"Hey!" Stan didn't care what Alki said, he really didn't bother to care what others thought, not because of his low emotional intelligence, but because he really didn't care, in his opinion, if his own general was really so easy to be swayed, I am afraid that he would have stayed in Rome as a general a long time ago, how could he have to walk thousands of miles to run here?
It is impossible to survive in the tragic gladiatorial arena with only developed limbs, no sharp vision and extraordinary mind, and the Roman Colosseum is only worthy of making lion food, so Lao Luo collected more than 100 in Athens at the beginning, and he definitely picked up a treasure.
Although the conversation between the two people was not loud, the distance between Lao Luo and the two was not far, and with his ear, he could naturally hear it clearly. couldn't help but smile slightly, Lao Luo Xin said that those guys who looked rough at the beginning were actually not given in vain, in fact, no matter what the people below thought, how could he not know?
It's just too lazy to say, not to mention that there is urgency when there is comparison and competition, so he won't be lazy, what he needs is the best fighter, and it's not good to play with qualifications next to his old Luo.
However, at least at present, there are no lazy guys among the soldiers around him, but they compete with each other very fiercely, because Lao Luo is not allowed to fight with weapons within the army, and if he is unarmed, he is not allowed to be fatally disabled, and the fist frame is still okay, the problem is that the fist frame may be a thing for ordinary people, but it has no effect on a blue nose and swollen face in the army. So in the end, the result of the competition is that everything is based on the record.
This is a virtuous circle, for army management, the most taboo is actually a piece of stagnant water, although Lao Luo has the experience of later generations, but in this era can only be said to be crossing the river by feeling the stones, after all, he is the main general, not to do organizational work.
What's more, the army with cold weapons is completely different from the army with hot weapons, and the physical requirements for soldiers are only higher.
Civilians were trained to be used as militia or reserves.
The regular soldiers are even more outstanding, after a winter of tempering, the cavalry school that was originally hastily formed in Sylvan has grown, if it was originally a rough piece of pig iron that has just come out of the furnace, now it can be said to be a piece of steel.
Now that this piece of tempered steel is in need of a strike, I just don't know if the Qarluq people and the Turks have the heart to cooperate.
After all the piles of wood were gathered, the city of Kuzak was once again flat, except for the pits that dotted it, and the original well was resealed and buried.
"General, it's time to go." Alki came to Lao Luo's side and said respectfully.
"Think about if there are any omissions, when I come back again, I don't know how many years later." Lao Luo is a little reluctant to stay in this quiet place for a winter, but at the moment, it is better not to think about this.
"The well has been camouflaged, the original underground passage has been sealed, and the stone that was blocked yesterday in the cave workshop has now been arranged...... For the rest, there should be nothing missing. Alki muttered and counted them, and found that there was really nothing to worry about, so he asserted.
Lao Luo looked back, in addition to the original "temple" and the surrounding walls, they were still in good condition, and he had taken them away, along with the gate. As for whether anyone will settle here in the future, he doesn't care, this year's fist is the truth, and when he comes back in the future, even if someone dares to settle here, he must abide by his rules, but there is nothing worth caring about.
This return to the east to take the northern route of the Silk Road, the road is a bit detoured, but the mountain road to the east straight into Kashgar is too difficult to walk, not to mention that there are Qarlu people entrenched there, after spending it, you will also face the Gobi desert in southern Xinjiang, although the desert terrain can be walked by floating cars, but don't think about heavy vehicles such as partial vans, and the terrain that is difficult for horses to cross, it is better to bypass.
There is Alke in charge of exploring the way, Gonzas is in charge of the forward campaign, Cheng Shouru is in charge of the order of the entire team, plus a group of people in charge of civilian affairs, Lao Luo, the person who stayed at the end, is responsible for the finish, which can be regarded as a beginning and an end.
After all, he was the first to look for settlements, and he was the same one who stayed at the end to be responsible for the finish.
"All on the horse, let's go!" No longer hesitating, Lao Luo took the reins of the black cloud from the hands of his own soldiers, turned over on his horse, and with a shout, the black cloud neighed for almost the whole winter, and the huge horse's hooves began to hit the ground.
The last group of dozens of four-wheeled carts started at the same time, starting to move along the previous ruts, rolling up countless dust and grass clippings from the early summer......
