Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 415 Summary of Military Information 【Subscription】

The four-wheeled carriage is a short board in ancient Chinese history. In the Internet age of later generations, it was taken out by countless banana people and pentagrams as an example of despising ancient Chinese civilization.They can expand from a four-wheeled carriage to roads, transportation, the overall strength of the country, and even civilization, etc., thus proving how awesome the Western Roman Empire is.

Because of this, Lu Qian deliberately searched for information in this area on the Internet, such as gunpowder, glass and cement, and gun manufacturing. Many readers of historical novels asked Duo Niang, the difference is only in the depth.Lu Qian has a deep memory of carriages, and now he can easily copy them.

At that time, he also searched for glass making methods and earthen cement, and Baidu searched many things, but he couldn't remember them all.That is interested, such as carriages; or simple, such as glass and earth cement and memory.The former is sand, and the latter is limestone mixed with clay and gypsum.It's a pity that the glass on Liangshanpo could not be fired, obviously something was missing in his memory.However, soil cement has no production conditions.Until now, soil cement has the production conditions, but the output is obviously not enough for large-scale application.It is not circulated on the market at all.

Skip this topic, let's talk about the four-wheeled carriage.The ancient Chinese ancestors really did not put their ingenuity on the steering device of the four-wheeled carriage.Were there four-wheeled vehicles in the Northern Song Dynasty?Of course there are.But Xu Guanzhong had never seen such a four-wheeled vehicle.

Running on a flat road, the speed of the four-wheeled cart pulled by two horses can make the surrounding cavalry gallop.If you count the transfer of horses in the middle, the four-wheeled vehicle can run faster all day and night than the war horse.

So much so that after Xu Guanzhong stayed at the Wushan Post Station in Dong'e County at night, he deliberately bent down to inspect the carriage site carefully.With just one glance, he saw the hub connected to the chassis in the middle of the shared shaft of the two front wheels. The shared shaft of the two front wheels of the four-wheeled vehicle can rotate around this central hub at a large angle. In this way, the four-wheeled vehicle You can turn more easily.Call Xu Guanzhong secretly applauded.

With such chariots and horses, if they are enlarged, how much military supplies and food can they carry?When marching and fighting in the future, when water transportation is inconvenient, it will be a three-point boost.

And what surprised him the most about this carriage was the comfort during the running. Xu Guanzhong had ridden the carriage countless times, but it was the first time he felt such a slight shock.He then paid attention to this, and found that the carriage was suspended.In this way, the strength of horizontal shaking can be significantly reduced, the ropes connecting each other, or the leather has a certain degree of elasticity, and the vertical direction also has a certain shock absorption effect.This allows the four-wheeled carriage to have the comfort of high-speed driving that ordinary carriages do not have.

If it is only used to pull people, the latter is very important.But in general, it is unremarkable, and the former is the country's weapon.

When Xu Guanzhong slept at night, there was a smile on his lips.This land of Qilu really gave him many surprises.

At this time, Lu Qian also received a letter from Lu Junyi, and Xu Guanzhong, a figure he had almost forgotten, occupied his mind again. "This is really a great talent." Lu Qian was overjoyed.This Xu Guanzhong was extraordinary. He had been looking for him for a long time, but he had never heard from him. He had even forgotten about this person.I don’t want to come now.

Judging from the words in Lu Junyi's secret letter, I am afraid that this person is not a eccentric character, but rather straightforward and heroic.Otherwise, how could they become best friends with Yan Xiaoyi?This time, he made no secret of his intention to seek an official, which Lu Qian liked.

Prosperity, wealth, and fame, he can afford them all, and he won't be stingy!

"Come here, send an order to the various post stations to treat Mr. Xu well, and don't be negligent in the slightest."

Lehe listened and said yes quickly. Seeing that Lu Qian had no further instructions, he excused himself and left.

When he arrived at the secretary's office, he passed down Lu Qian's oral order first, and then he brought up the book deposit slip, hoping to find Xu Guanzhong's name.Who is this person?His Majesty valued it so much?

It's just a pity that Le He was wasting his efforts.The matter of Xu Guanzhong was said by Lu Qian after breaking down the Daming Mansion, but it is a little far away from this moment.In the file in the secretary's office, there will be Ann?
the next day.Lu Qian ate his breakfast and strode into the Hall of Martial Arts, which is on the right hand side of the vestibule of the palace.The name is the main hall, but it is actually a big room with three rooms on one side.

Inside is a large map, which was assembled from official maps captured by the Liangshan Army through a series of battles.Lu Qian felt a little untrue when he said it.But it can only be used as it is.

There are also several sand tables arranged in the hall, one in Gyeonggi, two in Hebei, and three in Jiangnan.What Lu Qian focused on today was Jiangnan.

"Fang La's army began to invade Jiangning Mansion on the [-]th of last month, and fought repeatedly with the officers and soldiers in Zhongshan and Tuqiao." Xu Ning held a pointer in his hand and pointed at a simple map of Jiangning Mansion.Nazhong Mountain is located ten miles east of Jinling City, and Tuqiao is located twenty miles southeast of the city.The former built their camps according to the mountains, and the latter according to the meanders of the rivers.

"Fang La's army had already captured Shezhou in the early spring of this year, but was blocked when they captured Chizhou, so they turned around and took Changzhou and Runzhou. In this way, although the entire Jiangnan East Road lay along the river like a long snake, it was never cut off. The states The government should organize more troops to assist Jinling."

In the Hall of Martial Heroes, a group of leaders looked at the map and listened to the pointers of the golden gunner. This is the discussion of the army.Before each discussion, there must be a routine summary of military information, not only in Liangshanbo, but also in other aspects, once a month to cultivate the overall situation and analysis ability of the generals, and at the same time keep the generals psychologically alert at all times .

The Fangla Army and the Liangshan Army attacked Jiangning and Tokyo almost at the same time.Lu Qian had already returned home, but Fang Lajun had just reached the edge of Jinling City.It's really because what they want to fight is not just Jinling City, but half of Jiangnan East Road.The fault is not that Lu Shinang entered Raozhou from Shezhou after a hard fight, not only threatening Jingdezhen, but also threatening Jiangzhou.

The latter was Cai Dezhang, the ninth son of Cai Jing, who was the magistrate, and he insisted on withdrawing his troops and sticking to it.The reinforcements sent by Jiangzhou and Raozhou to Jiangning were disturbed by the news. Cai Yi, the magistrate of Jiangning, dared not refuse. Cai Jing was his biggest backer in the officialdom. He even wanted to call Cai Dezhang his uncle, so he had to let Jiangzhou , Raozhou volunteered to turn back.The morale of the defenders was shaken for a while, Tuqiao and Zhongshan could not support it, and Zhang Kang, the general of the soldiers and horses, was seriously injured by the Manichean bandits, so the army and horses were withdrawn into Jinling City by Cai Yi.Only then did the Manichaeans truly see Jinling City.

Helpless, Fang La got angry at both ends.He failed to send troops to attack Fujian earlier, but instead caused a commotion.The soldiers and horses in Fujian and Lingnan have been fully equipped, and Li Gong, who suppressed Liu Sanhua's uprising the year before last, led the troops to attack the southern end of Liangzhe Road.

Although Li Gong was a literati, he became an official through the military examination. He failed in the three rite examinations. In the first year of Daguan, he took the military examination and won the first prize.This person is Yunwen Yunwu, and he has already shown his sharpness when he pacified Liu Sanhua. This time he mentioned the soldiers in Fujian, first bluffing with Jianzhou, but in fact he went to Wenzhou by sea, and succeeded in attacking the city in one fell swoop.Later, the troops were divided into two groups, one to recover the counties of Wenzhou, and one to rush to Chuzhou along the Qingtian River, while diverting the army to attack Taizhou northward again.Although this move failed, because the city of Taizhou was inland, when Li Gong led the army to attack, he was noticed by the Taizhou Manichean defenders, so he led the army back to Wenzhou.But this combination of punches disturbed Fang La's peace, and the Manichaeism was attacked on both sides.There is also a lot of chaos inside the Liangzhe Road, and it is impossible to gather all the troops in the battle of Jiangning.

"Although the Jinling defenders still have [-] to [-] soldiers and horses, their courage has been defeated. Once Zhang Kang is gone, Liu Menglong will be unable to support him with one arm. It will not be long before the Manichaeism breaks Jinling City."

As Xu Ning spoke, he gave a detailed account of the lives of several major figures in the Song Army in Jinling City.

This song talks about Cai Yi.A native of Fujian, courtesy name Wenrao.Although Cai Yi is a scholar, he is shameless in flattering others.

At that time, Cai Jing had all the power.After Cai Yi won the first prize, he hurried to the prime minister's mansion to meet Cai Jing.On the grounds that "it is difficult to write two characters of Cai in one stroke", Yuyu checked the genealogy by himself. According to the number of generations, Cai Jing should be his uncle, and he should be Cai Jing's nephew.

Then Cai Jing also wanted to network talents and expand his influence, so he was naturally willing to be the number one scholar in this discipline to worship him as his uncle.After Cai Zhuangyuan paid his uncle's and nephew's gift, Cai Jing ordered Cai You and Cai He to come out to meet Cai Zhuangyuan.

Cai You and Cai Yu came to the flower hall at the order of their father. Cai Jing pointed to Cai Yi and said to his son: "This Cai Zhuangyuan has checked the genealogy, and he should be called his father and uncle according to his seniority. In this way, you should answer him like him." We are brothers, come and meet each other politely."

This Cai Yi was only thinking about how to curry favor with the prime minister, and made up a set of lies to recognize Cai Jing as his uncle. In fact, his seniority was older than Cai Jing.But for the sake of official career, nephews should also become uncles.Unexpectedly, two young masters appeared at this time.There is an old saying: "The prime minister's family is a seven-rank official", let alone the prime minister's son.When Cai Yi saw the two young masters wearing gauze hats and official uniforms, he quickly changed his words and said:
"Aye, but the juniors are confused and mistaken their seniority. Mr. Xiang should be the villain's uncle, and these two are the villain's uncles."

There is no shame, it can be seen.The official voice in Jinling City can also be imagined.

But Zhang Kang, the commander of soldiers and horses under him, was completely different.A few years ago, the governor of Zhang Anti-Fang led the soldiers and civilians of Shangyuan, Jiangning, Jurong, Lishui and other counties to build Yongfeng Wei in Danyang with a total length of 84 miles.The big fair there can reclaim thousands of hectares of land, the land in the embankment is fertile, and irrigation is convenient, which can ensure a good harvest all year round, so it is called Yongfeng Fair.Zhang Kang was also thanked by the people of several counties for this.Although this move is to make the top.But the good policies at the top fall to the bottom and become a disaster for the country and the people, are there still few?Zhang Kang was able to build the big dike in the shortest time, saving time and effort, and not disturbing the people. This is a rare good official.

And then Liu Menglong doesn't need to say more.

……

The entire military information collection lasted until the sun was westward, and Lu Qian always called someone to bring him a work meal for lunch.There is meat but no wine, even Li Kui and other reckless men who are dizzy from hearing it will not call for drinking to be happy today.

After the meal, a group of people almost consulted the military.

After all the surrounding battles were finished, not only Lu Qian, but also the guards in the Hall of Martial Heroes all felt...Qi Lu is so safe.

Look at the surrounding neighbors, there is no one who has stopped, who can come to provoke them all.

Now Wang Qing has led the remnant soldiers to flee to Jingnan, and Tian Hu went to Hedong. The Manichaeism is about to make great progress, and the old Zhao's family is in great trouble. How can there be leisure and elegance to greet Qi Lu?On the contrary, they are the great state of Qi, with strong soldiers in their hands, and they are eyeing it like a tiger.

"Report-"

"Report to the king, Dudu Lin sent the good news, and Gao Li surrendered."

In the Hall of Martial Heroes, a group of people were discussing what the Liangshan army should do next.Lu Qian has a large army in his hands, even if he can't leave Yidu City in a short time, he still can't waste tens of thousands of soldiers and horses for nothing, can he?
"Fight Yangzhou."

Be it Lu Zhishen or Xu Ning, since they knew that Manichaeism was about to break Jinling City, the time had come for the Liangshan Army to break Yangzhou City.

At this moment, Lin Chong gave him a great gift.

"Goryeo cut off the two counties of Ganghwa, Funing and Bao'an, Tamna County to me, and granted us the head of the dynasty. The annual offering is 3000 taels of gold, 3 taels of silver, [-] furs, [-] silks, manscloth, [-] bolts of linen and [-] dans of grain will help our military resources. The two sides will open ports and trade with each other..."
