Water Margin: I, Wang Lun, will have many children and many blessings in Liangshan.

Not far away, Lei Heng, who was appointed as student Qianhu, also watched silently.

After he surrendered, and because he was a criminal, his appointment was somewhat affected.

Liangshan is becoming more and more formal now. Unlike before, it was normal for brothers to commit crimes, and killing the whole family was not taken seriously.

Fortunately, Lei Heng's skills were high enough and he belonged to the standard Tiangang level. He quickly distinguished himself in the military attache training. When the war was about to begin, he was appointed as a trainee Qianhu.

Not to mention Sento, who became a full-fledged cavalryman after the war.

It's just that these half-grown children can also go to the front line. Lei Hengkong has a lot of skills. At this time, he can only watch from the rear as one group after another of students form a camp and all go to the battlefield.

This makes Lei Heng feel depressed and unhappy

"Brother Lei, after defeating Shijiedu, the next step is to capture Shanzhou, Yizhou, Xuzhou, Haizhou, and Huaiyang armies... At that time, we will expand the army to defend these new territories. If you serve thousands of households, you can win a garrison with both command and control. State defense is easy."

Zhu Tong looked on, comforting his former colleagues and friends.

"I have nothing to do, I just feel bad that I can't participate in the war. Lei

Heng smiled and said to Zhu Tong:"Brother Zhu, I wish you meritorious service in this battle and that you can command all the troops.""

Zhu Dian is now an actual cavalryman with thousands of households. His skills and general demeanor are slowly revealed. The key is to highlight the word stability.

Zhu Dian will never let go of the victory he can get.

This battle is indeed It’s a good opportunity for Zhu Tong

"I lead thousands of households of mobile cavalry, ready to support the three-way battlefield under orders. Whether we can perform meritorious service depends on whether there is an opportunity. If there is an opportunity, we will go there. If there is no opportunity, we will not take risks.

Zhu Tong smiled and said:"It will be a matter of time before Liangshan's army reaches hundreds of thousands, two hundred thousand, or three hundred thousand." If I work hard, sooner or later, like Coach Lin and the others, I will become a general commanding an army. I am not in a hurry."

Lei Heng looked at his former partner and gradually understood the other person's intention of coming over.

"Okay, I'm not in a hurry. I'll work hard and one day I'll catch up with my brothers."

"That's right, follow the boss, keep your mind calm, and just think about working with peace of mind, don't think about what you have and what you don't have."

"Well, brother Zhu, don’t worry, I can save it."

"The Tenth Cavalry, commanded by Qin Ming, acted in a hurry. He led his troops to march not at the speed and route commanded by the military commander, and missed the supply points. The soldiers did not recruit people from the village in front and did not recruit shops behind them. They ran out of food and were hungry all night and morning. , arrived at the next supply point at around noon the next day. The leader was extremely angry about this incident and ordered the entire army to report that Qin Ming was dismissed from the post of commander and was asked to temporarily replace him, in order to avenge his crime and meritorious service.……"

Zhu Tong lowered his voice and told Lei Heng that the matter was only reported to the frontline troops at the thousand-household level, to save Qin Ming's face.

Lei Heng was only a student of Qianhu, so he couldn't know about it, but it didn't matter that Zhu Tong made this little mistake.

Now that the Liangshan Army is filled with a positive atmosphere, it is inevitable that some people will make mistakes in a hurry.

Especially those in a bad situation like Lei Heng

"I understand. Brother Zhu, don’t worry."

Lei Heng was very grateful.

At the same time, he also sighed with everyone's mentality.

Previously, those of them who had some status and official positions in the government had never thought of taking the initiative to go up the mountain to drop grass, let alone fight in Liangshan. The level of official positions.

But now anyone with a discerning eye can see it. There is nothing the imperial court can do against Liangshan!

This time the Tenth Festival will be defeated!

Next time even if the so-called elite forbidden army comes and Liangshan has grown stronger, the officers and soldiers will still lose more and win less..

From seven states to more than a dozen states, or even dozens of states, hundreds of counties...

At that time, it was not about the imperial court coming to conquer Liangshan, but when Liangshan would conquer the world!

This was the reason why Lei Heng and others were anxious and anxious. Among them, I realized how strong Liangshan’s foundation is and how terrifying its hidden strength is.

If I don’t seize the opportunity and wait for the big boss to establish a new dynasty, I will make one mistake step by step and fall behind my old brothers too much. I am really unwilling to do so.……

……

Brother Qiao Yun took the water bottle from his waist and drank the remaining half of the bottle.

In front of me is Jishui, which is like a jade belt, flowing meanderingly and endlessly.

The water in the river is very clear, but the boss has already issued an order not to drink raw water.

Various diseases and infectious diseases these days, including liver fluke and schistosomiasis, are mostly related to the way we eat and drink.

In this era, there are all kinds of tea orders and group teas, but these are at least habits only found in middle-class families and above.

The same goes for drinking soup. If you don't have assets above the middle class, you are not qualified to drink soup.

Most people just drink some rice soup, noodle soup and the like while eating.

Daily drinking of water is mostly well water.

Also drink river water.

Various diseases are inevitable.

Until 1934, the principal launched the New Life Movement and encouraged all citizens to boil water before drinking it.

Put an end to epidemic diseases and the spread of cholera.

In the 1950s, the patriotic health campaign was launched again, emphasizing drinking hot water and boiled water.

Since then, Chinese people have become accustomed to boiling water for drinking. Even in summer, they only drink well water at most, and drinking river water has basically disappeared.

In this era, drinking raw river water was a common practice.

Under Wang Lun's strict order, wells were dug as much as possible in various places, and the people were taught that if a drop of water brings a hundred thousand insects, they should drink as much boiled water as possible.

But don't force it.

Not so with the army.

In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army, there are various compulsory health regulations, such as no long fingernails, no matter how tired you are after a long march, you have to boil water to soak your feet, isolation ditches must be dug when camping, and the grain cycle cannot be random.

These things are normal in the Song Army.

It is not uncommon in war history for a war to be fought without much fighting, an epidemic spread, and all the generals died of the disease.

……

Like Brother Yun, Yue Fei and others also drank all the water in the kettle.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and water consumption is very high.

Fortunately, there is a simple water station here.

There are several large buckets that are as tall as a person. There is warm water hanging out. Of course, it is boiled and then allowed to cool.

Everyone lined up, drank all the water in the kettle, and then refilled the kettle.

Yue Fei tied the kettle back on the leather belt around his waist.

This leather belt is very convenient. It can be tied around the waist to tighten the robe, making it easier to fight.

At the same time, there are several hooks on the belt, which can fasten hanging items without fear of losing them.

The kettle, the lunchbox bag, the small bag containing salt blocks and flints, and the short knife were all hung on the belt.

Looking at the distance, there was faint dust rising in the air. Yue Fei ordered:"Just rest here, feed the horses water, and then rest cross-legged on the spot, pay attention to your sitting posture... The convoy will be here soon."

Although the weather was hot, Yue Fei The robes of the others were still neatly worn, the leather belts were tightly tied, and the whole body looked like a capable soldier.

Many people passing by looked at this group of teenagers with curious eyes.

The officer robes of the Liangshan Army are only slightly different.

Dozens of teenagers gathered in one place, which looked a little weird.

But they also have the aura of soldiers, who are keen, courageous, brave and sturdy.

This makes many curious people only dare to take a few glances when passing by, but do not dare to come forward to chat.

The place where Yue Fei and others are now is Zhangqiu, Qizhou. The main battlefield is in the south. They came here to escort military supplies. One hundred and fifty carriages transported all military supplies. Their destination was to be stationed on the edge of the old Yellow River on the state border. More than 5,000 people from the Su Ding tribe

"The convoy is coming."

Yue Fei stood up first.

Everyone was sitting cross-legged under the shade of the tree, with postures as straight as pine and cypress.

Military posture requirements are also part of the Liangshan Army, and everyone implemented them very well.

Brother Qiao Yun's physical fitness is better than Yue Fei and a few other seniors are worse than ordinary young students, but they are better than ordinary young students.

In fact, the skills, physique, and courage of these young students who can enter the martial arts hall are far superior to ordinary rural teenagers. Some of them are literate and arithmetic when they enter school. If you can't pass the test, you won't be able to get in.

Brother Qiao Yun is also dangerous. His physical strength is pretty good, but his shooting skills are not good and he is a mess.

But his experience and vision in the market, as well as his conversation, and His superb arithmetic helped him narrowly pass the test.

In comparison, his commander Yue Fei and Shi Chang Wang Gui were younger than him, but they were far superior to Brother Qiao Yun and others in all aspects. These teenagers were extremely convinced.

As Yue Fei stood up, all the students stood up.

Not far away, one hundred and fifty heavy carriages turned from the county road to the state road.

There was obviously much less smoke and dust.

The county road was still a rammed earth road. , no matter how you maintain it, it is impossible to avoid excessive dust when there is less rain and more dust in early summer. It is normal for more than a hundred large vehicles to pass by, and the sky is filled with dust.

But the state road that turns here is There are newly covered cement roads, and the Construction Department has prioritized the construction of state roads in Yunzhou and Jeju. After all, it involves the recent war, and the speed of mobilizing troops and transporting supplies will be faster.

"The smoke and dust are getting smaller, no, there is no more smoke."

"This cement road is good, smooth and solid, and it is comfortable for horses to run on."

"It would be nice if they were all cement roads, built all the way to our village, hehe"

"As you may think, it would be great if the state roads in each state can be repaired in the next six months... This thing is much more expensive than rammed earth."

What Wang Lun provided was a simple version of cement, clay, a quarter of quicklime, add plaster of paris, and grind it into powder, which is cement powder.

If Liangshan hadn't built a large number of brick kilns in the early days, this thing would have been difficult to mass-produce.

Now it is also used to build various buildings, and the state roads have just been laid.

Next, we will build state roads, and then county roads. The amount of work is really not small. It will be good to complete the state roads next year.

But cement roads are difficult for the circulation of materials. The help far exceeds its cost.

Whether it is a pedestrian, a person riding alone, a mule, or a horse, the speed has more than doubled. The speed of a wheelbarrow and a two-wheeled carriage has not only increased, but the load capacity has also increased.

Ramming The heavy weight that the dirt road cannot bear, the cement road has no problem.

The large convoy in front of Yue Fei and his group is because of the new horse-drawn carriages built after the emergence of cement pavement. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Is this the four-wheeled cart?"

"This car is so tall, more than twice as tall as our car"

"The front wheel is low and the rear wheel is high. The front wheel is connected to the steering shaft at the bottom of the car. Unlike the previous two-wheeled cars, the horses and mules pulling the car must follow the handlebars and the body to turn. This car has springs and the body is integrated. It can carry and share the weight, unlike the previous vehicles that weighed on the carriages, horses and mules. It could not pull too heavy and it was difficult to turn.……"

Yue Fei was quite familiar with all the data and technology of the four-wheeled cart in front of him.

From then on, as a general, supplies, logistics, and military supplies must be familiar with, understood, and mastered.

"For a two-wheeled vehicle, one kilogram is the limit. This kind of four-wheeled vehicle can pull up to twenty or thirty people, as long as four or more horses are hitched. When pulling goods, it can pull at least three thousand kilograms. On this cement road, the largest four-wheeled cart can pull seven to eight thousand kilograms! The convoy in front of us is a very large vehicle that pulls about 8,000 kilograms, so it looks tall, and the cargo compartment is almost two people tall."

What is in front of us is indeed a large truck. The compartment of this truck is also specially designed. It is a special grain truck used to transport grain.

A bag of 120 kilograms of grain is exactly the same as a large bag of hemp.

On this truck is It was sixty-five large sacks, weighing less than 8,000 kilograms.

If it weren’t for the hardened road surface and the dead weight of the car body, the wheels and vehicle could carry such a heavy weight, but the road surface was not good, and it would be the same even if it didn’t rain. It would sink while walking. On the road.

During the Napoleon era, when they invaded the Russian Empire, nearly 190,000 horses were mobilized. In addition to war horses, there were also a large number of draft horses pulling carts. The

French baggage camp had six companies, the first Eight battalions followed the invasion, using 2,424 Contois carriages, which were light carriages with two or four horses, and more than 2,000 carriages pulled by oxen. Horse-drawn

Contois carriages Each vehicle weighs three thousand kilograms, and the ox-drawn 660 weighs four thousand kilograms.

It should be noted that after leaving Poland and entering Russia, it is difficult to find good roads. Most of them are dirt roads or even wilderness.

Russia at that time did not talk about infrastructure. Got it[]

The roads in Poland are not much better.

The biggest headache for taking the emperor is Eastern Europe.The infrastructure is too bad and fighting is not as comfortable as in Western Europe.

Sixteen battalions used more than 6,000 light carriages.

There were also more than 20,000 heavy carriages.

More than 38,000 carriages were used before and after.

In the early 19th century, these four-wheeled carriages supported more than 600,000 French troops traveling thousands of miles and provided logistical support for the army.

Because this is the era of hot weapons, we need more than just military rations.

There were also large quantities of shells and gunpowder to be transported.

Including the western development of America, two things are extremely important.

Mills and wind mills save a lot of human and animal power, and the grain grown can be easily converted into food.

Over a million windmills were built across the West in just a few decades, and they were definitely more important than imagined.

There are also four-wheeled carts.

Mass migrations of millions of people away from vehicles are impossible.

A four-wheeled cart, with the whole family sitting on it, plus all the belongings, not only daily utensils, but also production tools. and weapons.

A big car is a family, and dozens of big cars make up a simple town.

Then came the reclamation, land division, gold mining, and the establishment of workshops and factories until the railways connected them and formed a city.

Without these two artifacts, there would be no major development.

Here in Liangshan, a large number of four-wheeled carts are already being built.

Now it’s mainly freight.

Freight and passenger transportation between states and counties will be carried out in the future.

Logistics reduces costs and saves time.

Personnel exchanges are more convenient, faster and safer!

This is extremely important for local development, and technology’s change in life must be reflected in this aspect.

Not many mills were built.

After all, there are too many things to build now.

The population in China is densely populated, so there is no shortage of manpower. With the purchase of large quantities of livestock, there is no shortage of animal power.

Therefore, there are not many mills. When there are more open lands in the future, such as Liaodong, Outer Northeast, Western Regions, Lianghu, Yunnan and Guizhou... these places can be built in large quantities.

In the eyes of Yue Fei, Brother Yun and others, this convoy of more than a hundred heavy carriages was shocking enough!

Even great, a miracle.

This is also the case in the eyes of the people around.

Even though they had seen them many times, many people still gathered around them. If Yue Fei hadn't ordered the cavalry to guard them, the people might not be able to resist coming over and petting these vehicles.

Yue Fei's eyes were also burning, and he couldn't help but want to touch the compartment of the carriage.

One hundred and fifty large trucks can supply about 1.2 million kilograms of grain to the front line at one time...

It is simply a miracle!.
