After talking to the old man for a while, even if he resigned, the matter on Wuzhuang's side was finished, and Yang Meng should leave for western Yunnan.

Yang Meng arrived in Wuzhuang, Ding Taichen, Ge Shiyang, Liu Yitie, Jiang Shuxian, and a group of men, women, young and old, were all waiting in Wuzhuang!

"Lao Jiang, why are you here? Didn't you teach at Minghu Academy? ”

I was a little surprised to see Jiang Shuxian, this is also a hero of the Yang family, I haven't seen him for a few years, this Jiang Shuxian is a little old!

"Alas...... The third master, it is not easy to do this teaching, today I heard that the third master is going to build a road in Yunnan, this is the move of Ze by the people, Lao Jiang's family has arranged it properly, the teaching of the academy, there are also disciples to take responsibility, today, Lao Jiang is here to sell his life!

The two major rivers in western Yunnan have left the inscription of the old river, which runs through the road of Yunnan, and the name of the old river is missing! ”

With a few coughs, Jiang Shuxian also put out his arrogant words.

"This is a pestering job, can you carry it with your bones?"

Look at Jiang Shuxian's appearance, he is already a little sick, this is a talent! You can't die easily!

"Don't hide it from the third master, Lao Jiang is seriously ill, and this time he is here to play with his life! We will also die on the construction site of the road, this time to survey the road conditions, I carried the coffin on my back, where to die and where to bury, it can be regarded as living up to the grace of the third master! ”

It's a little sad to say this, this Lao Jiang is desperately supporting the younger generations!

"Done! Go ahead! If you survive this time, after the deed is completed, the third master will carve the mountain as a monument to show your merits! A mountain can protect your children and grandchildren for three or five generations! ”

Jiang Shu played his life first. Yang Meng is not harsh. Carved mountains as monuments. People like Lao Jiang are qualified!

"Borrowing the auspicious words of the third master, in order to carve the mountain as a monument, Lao Jiang will not be able to hold on for a while no matter how long it is!"

As Yang Meng thought, Jiang Shu got seriously ill first, and in order to earn some capital for his children and grandchildren, this time, the geographer who is known as Yunnan Xingsheng is hiding in his chest, is also ready to play with his life.

"Hmmm! The disease should be cured, and it must be cured! Taechen. How's it going? ”

Jiang Shuxian's appearance is just a small turmoil, the rules are like this, your contribution is there, you can have privileges.

Seeing that Yang Meng didn't ask Ge Shiyang a question for the first time, Ding Taichen also had a score in his heart.

"Third master, this is the most neat person in ten miles and eight towns, weaving straw shoes, what do you want, just tell them directly."

Time is limited, and Ding Taichen is not looking for many people. But it's good to have a look, and that's the other thing. Next, it's time to hand it over to the stewards of the Yang family.

Yang Meng did not hesitate, according to the shape of his feet, he drew a mid-waisted full-body straw sandal shape on the ground.

"Taichen, do you wear straw sandals over there in western Yunnan?"

After drawing the appearance, Yang Meng asked Ding Taichen again, this straw sandal was just thought up by himself, and whether it can be used depends on the actual situation.

"The mountain road is slippery, most of the people wear straw shoes, wear cloth shoes into the mountain, one is to pay for shoes, and the other is easy to rot feet after wearing it for a long time."

Ding Taichen is also from a big family, and he doesn't know much about this, so he asked the following steward before giving the answer.

"I wear straw sandals on weekdays when I go up the mountain, and I also ask them to make a few pairs according to the shape of my feet and those of the guards."

Although the new shoes are good, there must be a process of adaptation, the southern Xinjiang side, after arriving, there will be a war, and there is not much time left for Yang Meng to prepare, and some things can only be settled.

"Third master, these are leggings, most of the mountain people here are tied with black cloth, and the same is true in western Yunnan."

Yang Meng looked at the leggings, they all looked similar, only one was short in length, wide and narrow.

"Hmmm! Let the shoe factories rush to produce a batch and equip the new army in western Yunnan. ”

The rush basically relies on the legs, the usefulness of this leggings is not small, it can be used as military supplies, and if you choose a similar one, this leggings will be even if you have it.

"Liu Yiti, do you have a problem there?"

"Third master, most of the medicines are only about 1,000 people, and 100,000 people have to be allocated for at least one or two months. At this time, it is also the time for the replacement of new and old medicinal materials, and it will take more time to get it wrong! ”

Liu Yitie also told the truth, this list was too hasty, and it was unrealistic to complete it immediately.

"Hmmm! Let's do it as soon as possible! Ship to western Yunnan while configuring, remember! The medical hall should also leave a batch of spare potions. ”

This matter is not done with encouragement, Yang Meng didn't ask for anything, and he answered the sentence.

"Master Ge, how are you over there?"

All that remained was the carriage for maintenance and supply, the wooden carriage itself was bulky and loaded with less goods, and Yang Meng put his hope for transportation on the iron carriage.

"The thing has been brought, just in the back of the martial arts arena, can you go over and take a look?"

Ge Shiyang didn't say much, and took Yang Meng and ran to the martial arts arena behind.

"Master Ge, do you know about the chain bridge? Do you have any questions over there? ”

"It's not a big problem, the connection method you said is very good, the people in Xishan have estimated, if the iron cable is transported, it will not be a problem to erect a chain bridge in January.

With the assistance of the people of the gun factory, the problem of casting iron cables is not big, but this bearing capacity, do you have any requirements? ”

The chain bridge is the key, and Ge Shiyang's answer also made Yang Meng's pressure a lot less. Yang Meng thought for a moment and really made a request.

"If you follow the lock specifications of Jihongqiao, it can be too heavy. Cannon? ”

Walking, walking, it's not a problem, heavy. The transportation of the cannon is the big problem, in case this bridge is built, it will not be able to go heavy . cannon, the role of the bridge is greatly reduced.

"If you only walk a fire of about three thousand pounds. Cannon, the iron cable specifications of Ji Hongqiao are a little high, and the iron cable buckle that is twice as large can support a team of about 10,000 catties, which is the result of calculation.

And this is still based on ordinary cast iron, if the new cast iron of Nishiyama is used, the iron lock that is twice the size should be able to carry more than double the weight, but this is only the result of an estimate.

One and a half times the iron lock, although feasible, is risky! ”

Calculating the carrying capacity, this is the Western technique. In the Great Qing Dynasty, there is only one estimate. Ji Hongqiao was built during the Chenghua period. It has been more than 300 years ago, and although Jihongqiao is a miracle, it is certain that it is a waste of materials.

"It's still twice the size! This is more secure, although it is used temporarily, but it may not be used in the future, it is better to be strong!

According to the appearance of Ji Hongqiao, make an iron lock that is twice the size of Xishan Iron Works. How many decks can be made in a month? ”

Speed is what Yang Meng wants, but production capacity is an absolute constraint, no matter how good he thinks, it is in vain if he does not have enough production capacity.

"The lock of Jihong Bridge, around ten catties, a bridge has more than 5,000 iron locks, if we make double the size, the weight is about fifteen catties, in terms of the width of the carriage, the bridge deck is enough.

The bridge deck of Jihong Bridge is one zhang three. Considering the problem of coming and going, the two-zhang bridge deck should be sufficient. Three thousand iron locks for a bridge should be enough.

3,000 iron locks, the weight is 45,000 catties, and the iron locks required for 20 bridge decks, although Xishan Iron Works is a little reluctant, it should be able to do it.

There is no difficulty in on-site installation, as long as the focus point is selected, more than 50 chain bridges should be erected in half a year. ”

Production and erection, there is also a time period in it, half a year to produce 120 bridges of iron cable buckles, erect 50, which is already fast in Ge Shiyang's opinion.

"Master Ge, don't forget, with the erection of the bridge, the transportation time will be greatly shortened, and the technical content of the bridge is not very high, right?

Let the students of Xishan Academy get some more things, and explore while erecting, and each student who builds the first bridge can take dozens of strong men and form another support bridge team, so that if you push it down, you can erect as much as Xishan Iron Works produces!

Master Ge, you're doing a good job! ”

After mentioning a word, Yang Meng didn't forget to praise Ge Shiyang, it only took a day for him to leave Xishan, and Yang Meng felt very relieved to be able to give such an answer.

"That's the priority! This is a four-wheeled wagon and a two-wheeled manned carriage. ”

Priority! The two words also contain Ge Shiyang's resentment, he, the lord, really uses people as livestock!

"Huh...... There's no way, it's just such an era! How much weight can this four-wheeled carriage carry? ”

It's not just that Lao Ge has grievances, Yang Meng's grievances are not small, he lives again, he is busy chattering, if there is another choice, Yang Meng would rather be born in the peaceful years.

"Two thousand pounds up and down! However, it cannot be produced in the near future, and the production of iron locks will occupy most of the production capacity of the Xishan Iron Works. ”

What do you have to say, although this iron carriage is good, but the production capacity is limited, the iron chain bridge and the iron carriage, you can only choose one of the two.

"This wheel is bearing, right? Those who can make bearings are masters, right? Make a single bearing, transform a wooden carriage! ”

"Alas...... My lord, I really admire your eyes, they are so sharp! ”

"Master Ge is so forgiving, in extraordinary times, helpless! That's it, go get busy! ”

After a snort, Yang Meng turned around and left, the burden was too heavy, and Lao Ge's resentment was also a little heavy, why did he bother to ask for this boring?

"Liu Yiti, don't be busy walking, there's something to do!

You have recently studied the food of tsampa and smoked meat, and look at those that have been preserved for a longer time, not limited to these two things, it is convenient to eat, and there are vegetables and meat that are not bad for three or five months, which is the standard! Lao Tzu doesn't have a suitable military ration yet! ”

"Zhilu said! Anything else? ”

Listening to Yang Meng's instructions, Liu Yitie also scratched his head for a while, his own third master, has become more and more unpopular recently, and he will be burdened when he meets, counting the time of the past two days, he has a lot of tiring livelihood in his hands, and it seems that it is better to leave early.

"Let's go! Let's go! Lao Tzu has been ugly during this time, and his face is hateful, isn't it? ”

"Your appearance, the Heavenly Court is full and the earth is round, how can it be a hateful face?"

"Fuck off! What to do, what to do! ”

scolded Liu Yiti, who was saying witty things, Yang glanced at Ding Taichen, this product was also timid, shrunk his neck, and his eyes immediately began to wander away.

"Okay, don't pretend to be cowardly, Lao Tzu still has to go to southern Xinjiang to fight! Lao Tzu didn't coerce, what are you coercing? There's no other errand, wait for these straw sandals to be ready, do you know what to do? ”

Yang Meng thought about it for a while, and he also felt a little funny, he was in a hurry recently, this ghost world is forcing people to be livestock!

"Zhilu said! How do you get to western Yunnan this time? How many horses do you need? ”

Looking at his eyes, he knew that there was still something in the stomach of the third master, Ding Taichen was really afraid, it was only a few days of hard work, and the burden that the third master had pressed down was more than in the past two years, and in the past two days, Ding Taichen had not slept seriously, taking the burden during the day and going back to arrange it at night.

A line of small words on the notebook, maybe you have to work tens of thousands of people to be busy, including the four provinces, talking about the atmosphere, listening to the comfort, but who knows the hard work of doing things behind the scenes?

For the third master, Ding Taichen has also admired the five-body throw to the ground in the past two days, you can remember everything, you start and he knows the end of the road, this western Sichuan has just been pacified, and he is going straight to southern Xinjiang, tired is not tired alone, and the burden of the third master is not light!

"Run! Isn't this making straw sandals? ”

"What? Running? ”

"How can you get there without running? Riding a horse can't be driven continuously, the situation in southern Xinjiang is not known how the road is, five days to run to western Yunnan, three hundred miles a day, should be bearable!

See how the straw sandals are doing, and try whether the straw sandals are suitable on the way! ”

The war is about to start, Yang Meng also needs to recover his physical fitness, in the past two years, although his fists and feet have not been put down, his foot strength has been greatly reduced, and it is time to move.

"Make the soles thicker, make the uppers stronger, the third master has to travel thousands of miles!"

Okay! The one who is at the helm of his own house is ruthless to the enemy, ruthless to his subordinates, and even more ruthless to himself. (To be continued......)
