Chapter 1229 The River Ice Is Solid and There Is No Surplus
Ten people pulled a big ice truck forward on the ice. There were sacks on top of the ice truck with soil in the sacks.
People stood on both sides of the strait, and the people from the Yulin Flying Cavalry lent their binoculars to the people from the Tubo tribe.
"This is a telescope. It can indeed see far away. You can see the faces of people on the other side clearly."
"We used to fight against people with telescopes and suffered big losses."
"Two crystal pieces, one on each side of the tube."
"Transparent glass looks fine, but I don't know if it can be imitated."
"Don't think about it. I heard that Princess Jincheng has it. How could they not think about their Tubo Zanpu and Da Lun?"
The people of the tribe reportedly looked at the telescope to discuss, and the name was changed, saying that they were Tibetan.
The ten people continued to move forward, wearing nail shoes and dragging the ice truck. It was actually very easy, provided that the ice surface was relatively flat.
Li Yi At that time, before the 1980s, market goers in the Northeast liked snow on the ground.
Drag an ice cart to take things from home to sell, or drag things back from the market.
If you are fishing in winter, you will need an ice truck and a large horse-drawn sledge.
A good sledge is like a small house and can be pulled by two horses or elk.
The people on the ice walked squeakingly, and after a quarter of an hour they reached the middle of the river, and the people on the shore became nervous.
Under normal circumstances, the shore is least likely to freeze. If there is soil, the temperature will be transferred. The main concern is that holes will appear in the middle of the river.
After another quarter of an hour, the man and the ice truck successfully reached the other side. The people on the other side cheered, and the people on this side also shouted.
"You can go now. In winter, transporting things from both sides of the Taiwan Strait goes directly to the ice."
"When it snows again, supplies coming from other places will still choose to walk on the ice."
"The winter is getting better and people won't starve to death."
The tribesmen are more looking forward to smooth transportation channels than the Tang army. They are waiting to get enough food through exchange and work this winter.
"Quickly, tell the good news to other places, and look for locations downstream where the water flow is fast to observe the ice." Guo Zhiyun ordered.
In the past, even when I was an envoy in Hexi Province, it would snow in winter, and the roads would be difficult to walk when it snowed.
Nowadays, with new means of transportation, snowing is even better.
"It is estimated that all places where it snows will make sleds for transportation. Winter may create a good opportunity for war."
Zhang Xiaosong expressed his opinion that there are people in Hexi who know how to use sleds, Turks, and Tuqi, let alone Tubo.
"The horses can't bear it unless they have enough fine materials." Zhang Zhongliang denied it from the perspective of supplies.
In heavy snow days in winter, livestock can move less and feed well.
Horses are expected to run long distances on the snow with a large amount of forage. The forage needs to contain millet, and just feeding them hay will not work.
If the conditions are good, you should also feed fried beans or bean cakes, wheat bran and salt.
If the horses are running outside and are not well fed, how can they fight?
"Our horses have to eat a lot of food every day? Since there is no fighting at the front, should we transfer some of the horses back and raise them in the back?"
Wang Junkui was afraid that the rear would not be able to support him. A military horse with fine feed and fodder could eat fifteen or six kilograms of food a day.
Is the grass easy to say? It was cut and bundled before, and piled up like mountains.
Concentrate is food? What is given to horses can be eaten by humans as well.
War horses that do not go out to perform tasks need to be fed five or six kilograms of concentrate a day. Horses that participate in patrols and hunting are fed seven to eight kilograms of concentrate a day.
Does not feeding ensure weight loss? Even if the horse doesn't go out, it still has to walk around the stable? It can't be done without exercise.
Qin Li listened to how many people were talking and interjected: "Let the horses and carts be transported? Arrange it. I will write a letter back to ask if they can supply it."
…
"What's wrong?" On the boat? After Li Yi and others finished their meal, the three women were sent back and a set of clothes was given to them.
"They didn't know anything. They just said that someone shouted that the cabin was leaking, and everyone ran up, and then they were squeezed down."
Yulin Feiqi, who was responsible for rescuing people and asking about the situation, answered.
"Sent people to keep an eye on me. First of all, they know that I am good at swimming. This has been going on for several years, and now I don't swim in the river outside at all."
Li Yi hates guessing riddles the most. He wants to judge. The story of him saving ducks and catching black fish was rumored to be miraculous.
No one mentioned it for a long time. The other party would first judge that it was possible for him to go down and save people personally.
There was no panic reaction from the people on board, indicating that they knew the leak in the cabin was not serious.
Keep an eye on them to see who they come into contact with next.
There are many speculations in it, and none of them seem to be true.
It is more likely that the guesses are all false. In theory, in this case, everyone on the ship would be arrested and tortured.
But at such a festive time, just send someone to keep an eye on it.
The boat stopped at this time and could no longer move forward. The front was divided into many small streams, and the source of the water could not be reached.
The steam engine ship began to reverse, rudder, move forward, and rudder, dawdling in that area.
The spotter was there shouting 'Left rudder two, right rudder three' or something like that.
"Li Yi, I ask you, how many horses are in front of you?" Yao Chong came over with an enamel tea cup.
"Is this big enamel cup easy to use?" Li Yi did not answer the number of horses in front of him. Everyone knew the number.
The total number of his own horses and captured horses exceeds 150,000, which is more than people.
Zhang Xiaosong has ten thousand elite cavalry, one man and four cavalry.
"It's so easy to use. The soldiers still don't have an enamel military kettle. Do you know how much fodder a horse eats in a day?"
"An average of 10 catties, plus the food people eat, 2.2 million catties are consumed a day.
If you count the money, plus the freight, it's about 7 million coins, 7,000 strings.
7,000 a day, 70,000 in 10 days, 700,000 in 100 days, and it takes 150 days to see green, 1.05 million strings."
Li Yi told the cost directly, not counting canned food, arrows, cement, and medicinal materials.
Why do we have to count arrows if we don't fight? Shu sent a lot of arrows before.
Counting cement and coal, 2.3 million strings are enough.
But cement has been mined, and the cement factory will be profitable in the future. The coal mine will also make money if it produces coal.
"So little?" Yao Chong thought it was too little.
"There are too many deaths, and there are pensions for the dead, and rewards for meritorious service, but the horses and other livestock are ours, especially the local area."
Li Yi spread his hands, how much more do you want?
"All things in five months add up to 2.3 million strings, where is it less?" Bi Gou also brought an enamel pot over.
He thought Yao Chong was getting carried away. UU Reading wｗw． uukａnshu.ｎｅｔ If there were no good weapons and capable generals and soldiers in this war, four million strings of cash would be spent now.
In the past few years, the court's fiscal revenue was more than eight million strings of cash. Half of the fiscal revenue was used to fight a war? The Tang Dynasty would have been dragged down long ago.
No, it can't be fought at all. There is no money.
The fiscal revenue is not a fiscal surplus. How can there be money to support a crazy attack?
This is still calculated from the cement and coal expenditures for building the city to the expenses from now to the arrival of spring. What about before?
"Isn't there 30 million strings of cash in fiscal revenue this year?" Yao Chong meant that I would calculate it according to this.
"Give salaries, 10 million strings are gone. It is said that they will build railways and reserve 10 million strings. Then there is a fleet, plus the war, and it is gone."
Bi Gou spread his hands like Li Yi.
"Are you kidding me?" Yao Chong stared.
