Three Kingdoms

Chapter 234 Response

While Fei Qian was preparing to transport the first batch of Cai Mansion's books, Li Ru was also preparing to transport the first batch of supplies.

To move the capital, you can't just say it. There must be a lot of advance preparations and material reserves. Especially now that most of the lower-level officials in Luoyang's officialdom have resigned, before Li Ru's countermeasures failed to work, he had to personally prepare the first batch of supplies to be transported to Mianchi Camp.

The first thing to ensure during the relocation is the supplies needed by Dong Zhuo's military. Otherwise, if changes occur and the army does not have sufficient reserves, it will be a joke and a disaster.

Therefore, Li Ru needed to transport grain and grass to Mianchi Camp in advance this time, and then expand westward along the route until the entire migration route was opened.

However, transporting to Mianchi is not bad, but transporting further west means greater consumption, and the soldiers responsible for transporting themselves also need to eat, so Zhufu Yan once said, "...pulling millet originated from Huangxuan and Langxie From the county that bears the sea, transfer it to Beihe, and at the rate of thirty minutes, you can get one stone."

This shows how astonishing the loss of long-distance transportation of grain and grass is. Although the distance from Chang'an to Luoyang is not as far as Huangxuan and Beihe, there are so many people after all, and the number of people eating horse chews along the way is also quite alarming...

Li Ru assisted Dong Zhuo in the battle against the Qiang and Hu in Xiliang. Although he also adopted some measures to win over and divide, he also needed iron and blood to make the Hu people who were not versed in poetry know to be afraid. Therefore, there have always been big battles and small battles, and for wars and The matter of transporting grain and fodder required by the army is extremely familiar.

When the army is not in war, there are only standing soldiers in the army. Moreover, if it rains or something happens and there is no training, there is no need to cook one meal and one meal. Both meals can be boiled. Soldiers I don’t have any objections, but once there is a war and you start marching, you must make sure that at least one of the two meals a day is dry. If there is a battle, you need to eat both of them, and even more. Serve meat.

At least when the soldier is allowed to die, he is also a dead ghost...

Of course, it is not for the so-called mercy, but a well-fed soldier is worth two or even three hungry soldiers when fighting. Therefore, in order to win the battle on the battlefield, we must let the soldiers who go into battle The soldiers are well fed!

In order for the regular soldiers to concentrate on fighting and have enough to eat, a large number of auxiliary soldiers and even civilians are needed to assist and continuously transport the grain and grass stored in the rear to the front line.

Fortunately, it is not too far from Chang'an to Luoyang. We only need to establish three to four transit points along the way, and Mianchi is the first transit place.

However, knowing the overall situation does not mean being able to do a good job in the specific details. Otherwise, there would not be so many people who would be criticized as being overly ambitious and understating.

An army has to prepare a variety of things, which are extremely complicated, especially now that a large number of grassroots officials in Luoyang have resigned, and those ordinary soldiers and civilians don't even know how to count, let alone share Li Ru's pressure.

Although this situation was more or less within Li Ru's estimation, it was still very tricky when it actually happened. Although the low-level officials who resigned were nothing, they still did a good job in sorting, handing over, and counting items. , and now most of these people who know how to count have left, and the remaining small number of people are already spinning around, and the entire capital relocation process has been forced to slow down.

Li Ru has already made an estimate. If the time it takes to move the capital is shorter, then the consumption will naturally be less. However, once the time is prolonged, not only will the Kwantung Allied Forces be faced with the problem, but the consumption on the road alone will make Dong Zhuo The army could not bear it.

At that time, in order to ensure the rations of the entire army, some extraordinary measures will have to be considered.

It's not a last resort, and Li Ru doesn't want to use ruthless tactics, but the current situation seems that perhaps only ruthless moves can allow the entire plan to be implemented...

Hongnong Yang, if you really encounter difficulties in food and grass due to this, don't blame me.

In Li Ru's eyes, the Hongnong Yang family is like a hamster's nest in the fields. Of course, the shell of the Hongnong Yang family may be a little harder to crack, but the turtle shells of the surrounding powerful countrymen who are attached to the Yang family are not that hard. …

Therefore, now that the Yang family of Hongnong was jumping up and down, Li Ru pretended not to see him. If he really needs food and grass, he would just go to Hongnong and get it from the ground.

Since the Xun clan of Yingchuan has clearly shown the status of an obedient and good baby, Li Ru does not intend to embarrass them. After all, they still need to set an example and benchmark for other noble clans, right?

Only Grand Tutor Yuan Wei...

This old fox, Li Ru smiled slightly, who really thought he could hide those tricks?

Li Ru has already given an order to Niu Fu, asking him to bring his troops to Luoyang. The first thing he needs to do is to "properly protect" everyone from Taifu Yuan Kai's house to Chang'an!

If someone else is asked to do this escort thing, Yuan Wei may be persuaded to make some changes. Only Niu Fu, who is directly under Dong Zhuo, can do this thing and will not give Yuan Wei any chance!

In Li Ru's view, Yuan Wei clearly showed his ambition in moving the capital. Thinking about it, the Guandong gentry who responded to the Yuan family's call now belong to Jizhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Xuzhou. It encompasses several of the most prosperous and culturally powerful states in the entire Han Dynasty. It is only natural that the Yuan family would have some ideas as a result.

But what Li Ru couldn't figure out was how Yuan Wei wanted to stay in Luoyang, or did he think he could escape halfway?

Because only these two situations can explain Yuan Wei's current behavior.

Although Li Ru didn't know what other arrangements Yuan Wei had made, Li Ru would never let Yuan Wei complete the layout smoothly. Since he couldn't see clearly, he would just focus on what he could clearly understand! Because Li Ru knew that no matter how leaping the fish was, once it was out of the water, it would only be able to survive.

Therefore, in the list of the first batch of officials who moved to Chang'an, Li Ru ranked Yuan Wei first, and even thought of the reason - Grand Tutor Yuan Wei was loyal, a pioneer for the Han Emperor, and took the trouble to go to Chang'an first. Renovating the palace...

As long as Yuan Wei is "escorted" to Chang'an, it is equivalent to isolating Yuan Wei's "water". Then Yuan Wei is like a fish on the chopping board, and he can fix it whenever he wants.

So now, before Niu Fu's leader arrives, any person traveling from Luoyang City must be strictly inspected!

Don't give Yuan Wei any chance to escape!

When Zhuge was about to die, he summoned all the ministers to explain the funeral affairs. Everyone was in tears. Before he died, Zhuge said: "You have lived in Han Dynasty for a long time. You should ask yourself, is this a Han or a Wei?" After speaking, Then he passed away.

Wei Yan was thoughtful and rebelled the next day.

ps: There will be an update tomorrow for the first alliance leader - the Angry Liuyi Book Friend!
