Chapter 70 Everything is ready

Seeing that Lou Qian seemed to have an unspeakable appearance, Zhao Ta was anxious, thinking that he had encountered something big, "What is going on with Lou Qian, is there a problem at home?" Zhao Ta leaned over and asked softly.

"The king... Wang Ye, the little one drank too much and bragged about it, saying that he was very familiar with the Wang Ye" Lou Qian secretly raised his eyelids to see if the Wang Ye was angry, outsiders knew that the Wang Ye was kind, but in the pro-soldier team, if the recruits made a mistake and were punished, the words on the lips of the veterans were, 'When we trained, if the Wang Ye saw you like this, hum, you would be miserable' So although the recruits did not experience the punishment of the prince himself, they were both respectful and afraid of the prince under the yin authority of the veterans.

"That's it, then you don't have to run to the door of the prince to make noise, right? A lot of words" Liu Sheng patted Lou Qian's shoulder and said funny, it is normal for young people to brag, he drank too much and said that he had slept in the same room with the prince, but he slept standing at the door, and the prince slept lying in the house.

"But they took it seriously and made a request," Lou Qian said timidly with a bitter face.

"What the hell are you blowing, who are you talking to?" Liu Sheng became vigilant when he heard this, the prince went south this time to offend the sea of people, if he took the opportunity to disadvantage the prince, it would be a bad dish

"The little one should be damned" Lou Qian was frightened when he saw Liu Sheng's serious face, knelt on the ground and said, "The prince has a holiday to let us go back to get married, the little mother-in-law's family is from Waizhuang, yesterday I went to discuss the marriage, drank a few glasses of wine, and the little one bragged a few words, and their family took it seriously, so they made a request..."

"What nonsense are you talking about, do you want you to ask the prince for more dowry?" Liu Sheng slapped him on the head and said viciously.

"No, no, the little mother-in-law's family is a responsible person, no money and no land, just want me to borrow the prince's carriage to pick up the family on the day I get married, they said that the daughter from the family married the prince's side, the face is bright, and there is face in front of relatives and neighbors" Lou Qian honestly recruited, that day he didn't know what evil was in the road, in front of the mother-in-law's family said that he was the prince's coachman, the prince treated himself like a brother, but there was nothing to ask, people mentioned such a ' Xiaoxiao's request, when he woke up after returning home, his intestines were repentant, he was just a driver of a baggage team, he never even approached the side of the prince's carriage, and used the prince's car to pick up relatives, it was not a fool's dream, but the cow had already blown out, if he couldn't do it, his own people would be lost, so he broke into the palace today.

"Hey, you really don't know how many bowls of rice you eat at a time? Tomorrow, don't catch the car, you go with the cannon, the prince's carriage is also borrowed casually, don't say it's you, you inquire is when the court is in charge of him dare to use the prince's carriage, it's really two or two horse urine to drink, don't be afraid of anything Take the prince's car, then you don't need to do a happy event, just do the funeral..."Liu Sheng's mouth was originally damaged, scolded, slapped him, in fact, what he said was true, the ancient Chinese hierarchy was strict, and the system of official cars used as part of it reflected a kind of prestige, It is also the embodiment of the distribution of political interests of officials of all sizes, and the categories and grades of the cars taken by officials at different levels are different, which is used to show the difference in status and level, and the car cannot sit blindly, otherwise it will really lose its head.

"Okay, Liu Sheng, you are not as good as him if you drink too much, do you want me to tell me about your 'glorious' history?" Zhao Tan kicked Liu Sheng and said, Liu Sheng smiled and stood aside, Lou Qian now knew that his disaster was too big, and he knelt there and didn't dare to say anything

"Lou Qian, when will you get married?" Zhao Ta pulled him up, patted the soil on his knee and asked.

"Lord Wang, the little one is scheduled to get married in two days" Lou Qian was frightened by Liu Sheng, he didn't dare to raise his head, and answered honestly.

"Well, apart from using the king's carriage, do you have any other requirements from the mother's family?" Zhao Ta nodded, calculated the next day, he could stay until then.

"Lord Wang, no, there is nothing else except this request" Lou Qian said with a sad face, this request is about to kill him, what else dare to ask.

"Okay, three days later, this king will personally drive to greet you in person," Zhao Ta said.

"Lord Wang..."As soon as Zhao Ta's words came out, all the people present were stunned, what level did the prince have to take the car, the face given by the prince was too big, and the big people couldn't believe it. …,

"Lou Qian, don't be stunned, go home and prepare quickly, the car will use the house, although it is not my car, but it is also from the palace, so I will find you some face" Zhao Ta said with a smile.

"Lord Wang, how can the little one let the prince drive himself, isn't this killing the villain?" Lou Qian didn't expect his rude request to be the result, and knelt down again and said.

"Why not, are you afraid that I will drive the car to the ditch, my skills are no worse than yours, and besides, where do you only borrow a carriage to show that we are close, I drove to see which of them dares to underestimate you and say that you brag" Zhao Tan patted his chest and said.

"Lord Wang..." Lou Qian kowtowed three times and left crying.

Two days later, the prince drove as promised, and the Tsing Yi hat dressed up as a coachman and really drove the car to pick up the bride, playing whips, moving stools, lifting the sedan curtain, helping the newcomers to get into the car, and taking out red envelopes, meticulous that is called a professional, if he is not followed by a group of guards, no one will believe that this coachman will be the prince. And Lou Qian's wedding has become the most beautiful wedding in the house, and even from Xiangyi to Gongzhou, there are crowds of people on the way to pick up relatives, I don't know whether to see the bride or the prince...

As soon as this matter spread, there were praises and disadvantages: what was praised was the benevolence and righteousness of the prince, who loved the people like a son, and drove the car for his groom regardless of identity; What is derogatory is that a prince actually disregards his identity to be a coachman, which is unseemly and even more detrimental to the royal majesty. No matter what others say, there is an endless stream of people who propose marriage to the prince's personal guards, not to mention finding a daughter-in-law, even if they are willing to be concubines

．．．．．．

A few days ago, Zhao Ta took the time to inspect the combat readiness again, and it was gratifying to see that 2,000 rifles and 500 revolvers had been produced, and there was a sufficient reserve of wearing parts. ten wheeled Gatling guns; 20 Furlong cannons and 10 projectile mortars; 1 million bullets and 50,000 catties of gunpowder; In addition, more than 3,000 sets of winter and summer clothing and bedding, 2,000 sets of leather armor, 500 sets of iron armor, 2,000 sets of saddles, 2,000 sabers, and more than 100 four-wheeled baggage and special purpose vehicles are reserved; The food factory has successfully trial-produced compressed dry food, with a daily production capacity of 500 servings, and some air-dried meat and salted meat reserves, which can ensure a month's supply; It's just that the number of horses is not satisfactory, but there are also 3,000

Ancient and modern wars have one thing in common, what they fight is the economy, and what they fight is logistics, and the logistics support in ancient times was much simpler than now: it was mainly responsible for grain transportation. In the era of cold weapons, there was not much consumption of weapons, mainly arrowheads. However, the requirements of modern warfare for logistical support have increased dramatically: the main thing is that the speed of firepower projection is fast and the consumption is fast, and he roughly calculated that in a fierce battle, a gun fires an average of 100 rounds of ammunition, and according to the calculation of 1,000 people, it will need 100,000 rounds of ammunition, and this is not counting those machine guns, and the current reserve of one million rounds of ammunition cannot support it for long. In the future, when going to the battlefield, the transportation of gunpowder and bullets will be restricted, and if the musket runs out of bullets, it is not as good as a saber.

Now the battle of Song and Xia, which he is about to plunge, has become a competition between the two sides for logistical supplies, and whoever can ensure the food supply of the front-line army will win the initiative in the confrontation; Whoever destroys the other side's logistical supplies will have the upper hand in the conflict, and in this era there are no cars, planes, highways and developed transportation systems, all of which have to be solved on their own. Zhao Ta has long known that a modern war requires at least three to six months of logistical preparation. Therefore, it was necessary to supply nearby, so he decided to let the commercial bank transfer most of the equipment and manpower to the northwest base in the name of purchasing a fireworks branch and put it into production as soon as possible, while other relevant departments also had to transfer to wartime preparations to ensure demand. This matter can be said to be all preparations for war, only the east wind is missing

．．．．．．

"This departure, I don't know how long it will take for Lu Dao to come back" Zhao Ta wandered in his garden, which was still the same as it was, rockeries, small pavilions, frozen ponds... It is not as quiet as Suzhou Canglang Pavilion, beautiful, not as luxurious as the palace in Beijing, but here he will feel very quiet and serene in his heart, tense nerves will stretch his waist, thinking that he will leave tomorrow, he becomes anxious, there is always a lingering inexplicable fear in his heart, indescribable.

"I'm not afraid to fight, I'm born to be a warrior, but why should I be afraid?" Zhao Ta climbed the rockery, and the surrounding miles were in full view, he muttered to himself, he spent ten years to build this small world, repair water conservancy, build factories, develop agricultural business, create guns that should not appear in this era, accumulate a lot of wealth, form a new army, and tens of thousands of people who support him, although he dare not say that he is invincible in the world, but it is enough to dominate one side.

"Oh, I understand, this era has the rules of this era, and I am here to break this rule, some things must be changed" Zhao Ta figured it out a little, now he is like standing in front of a black hole tunnel, I don't know how long the road is, I don't know what is in the road, I don't know where the road leads to the front, and there is no turning back when I walk in, everything is unknown, I don't know where the road can go, I don't know what the end of the road is.

"I'm afraid that my life is for nothing anyway, I have gained and lost, I hesitate how my generation did it, I won a new Song Dynasty, and I won't turn around less if I defeat the earth, just when I live in vain, learn from experience, and come again" Zhao Ta smiled, and when he returned to Beijing tomorrow, he would blow the northwest ......wind.
