I am a child of Daqin Xiong, who supervises the country at the age of eight

Chapter 160 Cotton
At this moment.

Wang Jian finally opened his mouth and explained.

"Young Master Nineteen, I don't know something. It seems that my Daqin is indeed extremely powerful. Sending troops to the grassland must be a battle that must be won. However, Young Master Nineteen, I have fought for so many years, and I know very well. One thing, that is, in the war, you need to consider all aspects and various problems..."

Wang Jian was like a mother-in-law's mother-in-law, and began to educate Ying Changsheng.

However, Ying Changsheng and Xiang Yu really listened to what Wang Jian said—nonsense.

Who is Wang Jian?

This man has destroyed several countries and is a rare good general in the world!
It can be said that in front of him, Xiang Yu can only be regarded as a junior!
After all, there is nothing in the world.

How many troops did Xiang Yu command?
Let’s just talk about that, Han Xin, who is very confident and claims that the more troops the better.

How many soldiers and horses have you commanded?
But Wang Jian was a general who commanded an army of 60 to destroy Chu!

Manage an army of 60!

In addition, Wang Jian has accumulated countless experiences over the years.

It can be said that looking at the world, Wang Jian is the only one in Daqin.

The suggestion he made, probably, must have some truth.

At this moment, Wang Jian revealed a trace of bitterness, and said to Ying Changsheng.

"Nineteenth Young Master, I also want to clear the grassland earlier. However, these days, after carefully studying the grassland, I found that this matter is not that simple..."

"This may be much more difficult than my Great Qin and the Southern Expedition to Baiyue..."

"Because, the grassland to the north is really too vast!"

"After my Daqin soldiers and horses enter it, even with the help of a map, they can find the Donghu people, but along the way, if these Hu people on the grassland flee to the north one by one, we, what should we do?" What should I do?"

"Could it be that you can't pursue it all the way?"

"Then where should we chase?"

Yes, it's really hard to chase!
Because the grassland is too vast.

And the army of Daqin.

Once deep into the grassland.

Logistics transfer will be extremely difficult.

Even if the Great Qin is powerful.

But in fact, it is also a bit too much.

At this time, Wang Jian raised another very important question, only to see him, with a bitter face, explaining to Ying Changsheng.

“Furthermore, what I am even more worried about is another matter. If this matter is not properly considered and protected, I am afraid that our Great Qin’s hasty Northern Expedition will most likely turn into an unprecedented fiasco! "

"Even, the soldiers and horses of my Great Qin will not fall under the enemy's sword..."

"General Wang, Han Xin disagrees with your words!"

At this time, Han Xin, who didn't know when he came over, suddenly opened his mouth and said with a big smile.

"In this world, besides the enemy, is there anyone else who can kill us?"

"Could it be, is it a ghost?"

"I don't quite believe it anymore. I, Han Xin, have always believed that there is such a thing in the world!"

"The old man doesn't believe it either!"

Wang Jian at the side, heard the words, echoed, and then he said.

"What the old man said is not a ghost, Han Xin, what month is it now?"

"It's August now, the weather is crisp and clear, it's a good time!"

Han Xin heard the words and said without hesitation.

"Yeah, it's August!"

Wang Jian murmured.

In the Qin Dynasty, there were only ten months in one year.

At this moment, only Wang Jian said with emotion.

"Now, winter is about to enter, and when the time comes, it will be freezing cold, you Han Xin, do you know the problem?"

"Once it's winter, the difficulty of transporting our Daqin's food and grass will increase several times!"

"Besides, the bitter cold on the grassland is far from what the people inside the Great Wall can bear. What will happen to the soldiers when they enter the grassland in such weather?"

"Probably, out of ten, seven or eight people will suffer from frostbite, or directly freeze to death?"

"This……"

For a moment, Han Xin's face changed suddenly.

On the side, Xiang Yu, who was still complacent at first, also showed a heavy expression after hearing this.

At this time, only Wang Jian opened his mouth and said.

"So, the old man plans, don't be in a hurry for now, wait until next year, after the beginning of spring, it won't be too late to make a strategy..."

"But next year, there will be a cold winter..."

At this time, Ying Changsheng murmured.

Yes, winter is not only this year.

There will be one next year, and the year after that, there will also be one.

In this situation.

If Great Qin cannot wipe out the nomads on the entire grassland within one year.

Then, in winter, the Qin army will usher in the enemy's counterattack in the snow and ice.

When he thought of this, Ying Changsheng frowned.

And Wang Jian also showed a serious face.

"Yeah, it's really hard to level the grassland within a year!"

"How difficult is it?"

At this time, Xiang Yu frowned and muttered.

Wang Jian sneered.

"How big is the grassland? Together, the area is larger than the mountains and rivers that my Great Qin occupies today!"

"How difficult would it be for me, Great Qin, to completely wipe out this entire place?"

"How many troops should be stationed?"

"Therefore, we can only send a small number of elite soldiers, and proceed slowly. It is indeed extremely difficult to complete such a large undertaking within a year..."

"Besides, Saibei is bitterly cold. If I, Daqin, wipe out the barbarians, I have to send troops to stay here forever, right?"

"As for the garrison, if they can't solve the important task of keeping warm, how can the soldiers persist in the bitter cold and snow in northern Saibei?"

"This one……"

Han Xin and Xiang Yu showed serious expressions on their faces.

this way.

Two people, really can't solve it.

The reason is also very simple.

Who made Han Xin and Xiang Yu.

Are they both from the South?
Therefore, for the two of them, experience the bitter cold in Saibei.

In fact, it is somewhat difficult.

At this time, Ying Changsheng was thoughtful.

Immediately, he laughed a few times.

"Haha, I'm still doing it. What's so difficult about it? It's so simple!"

"Oh?"

Wang Jian and others on the side showed surprise, and then looked at Ying Changsheng.

At this time, I saw that Ying Changsheng explained with a smile.

"My son's method is very simple!"

"My lord, recently I got a new crop called cotton. If you use this material to make clothes and wear them, it will be enough to resist the cold!"

Ok.

Win longevity.

It is planned to sacrifice the cotton to the early ones!

Cotton stuff.

It's not Huaxia, a native crop.

On the contrary, this thing was not widely implemented in China until the Song Dynasty.

At this moment, Ying Changsheng plans to release this thing in advance.

In his opinion, having a cotton coat and a quilt is enough to resist the cold climate in the north!

Well, these things are also used in the army of later generations, and the effect of cotton to keep out the cold, no matter how bad it is, is much better than the winter clothes filled with dried reed flowers that are popular in Daqin now!
