Chapter 89 War Economy

"Famous thing, I have to say, is a good thing!" Liu Tao immediately looked at Lu Yan and others and said to them.

"That's why the brothers are kind and the people are rushing to support each other." Lu Yan was indeed convinced. The two of them knew that their reputation was important, but they didn't expect that this thing could be cultivated by artificial management.

Before the krypton-gold powerful man like the "Eight Chefs" came out, if he wanted to become famous these days, he had to make some achievements or amazing actions. Then he was appreciated by a county magistrate and promoted to a county magistrate, and then he had the opportunity to do bigger things and finally be a filial and honest person.

Liu Tao is very kind and laments that others are doing well, but it is incredible that he can still make a name for benevolence and righteousness.

In other words, they didn't say it, or they were embarrassed to say it directly, otherwise Liu Tao wouldn't mind telling them what it means to rob the rich and help the poor, what it means to fight...uh...... Forget this, if you count it, you will be present, except for Jian Yong, all local tyrants.

"We must become famous as early as possible. We must take the initiative to gain fame, just like we take the initiative to rise up in this turmoil and stand out and make a name for ourselves and the common people. But if we study slowly and wait for others to discover us, then when will it be our turn? There must be risks, but what can we do without risks?" Liu Tao could only say it in another way.

He himself is just a person who seeks fame and reputation, but in order to do well, he must be covered with the skin of "benevolence and righteousness".

The key to doing this is how to make others put a layer of skin on yourself. It is best to strip yourself clean and show your flattery.

As a time traveler, even if he doesn't have this skill, he is somewhat influenced by it. However, this ancient man, especially the few people in front of him, had not accumulated so much knowledge, and was stunned by him at this moment.

"What my brother said is so true, Yan is taught." Lu Yan first reacted and bowed solemnly. Lu Zhi would not say this to him, at least he hadn't said it yet, and it might be that he himself didn't know it. The key is that these words are really valuable.

"But don't just say it when you see someone, otherwise it will not only not be effective, but will backfire." Jian Yong reminded. He has already joined Liu Tao's disciple, and the latter's reputation is equivalent to being famous by himself, so maintaining his reputation is the top priority.

"The people present are either brothers or their own people. I don't have to hide anything from you." Liu Tao said with a smile.

For a moment, this feeling of trust stimulated everyone's senses, especially the softness deep in their hearts. Under this stimulation, an emotion called "excitement" emerged deep in the brain, and rationality was suppressed.

"We will never reveal a word!" Everyone responded one after another, and even made the most vicious oath for this.

Unfortunately, Liu Ge and Shangguan Yu did not recognize their master, which disappointed Liu Tao. Then he thought about it, one was his clan brother and the other was his cousin. This relationship was like the relationship between Cao Cao and Cao Ren and Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan.

His father was adopted by Cao Teng, so ethically, Cao Ren and Cao Hong were his brothers. But he came from the Xiahou family, so although Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan were subordinates, they were also brothers of blood.

Just say that now, Liu Ge, the brother of the tribe, felt a lot more disagreement when he called himself "Master".

"Okay, I think it's better to get back to the topic..." Lu Yan felt that continuing to talk was not a solution. "How to allocate five hundred young men? Is it impossible to put them all in the baggage unit?"

"Isn't it necessary?" Jian Yong thought for a while, "our baggage troops are even too much."

Strictly speaking, two thousand baggage units are already completely sufficient, and directly increasing to five thousand is nothing more than the number four is not good. The result is that the team is a bit cumbersome and the daily consumption of food is a bit too much.

I only walked forty miles on the first day of the way to Lunu County. In addition to the trouble caused by Zhang Fei, there is another factor, which is that the team is too large, the cost of escort increases, and the marching speed has to slow down.

"Then let's get involved in the war soldiers!" Zhang Fei jumped out directly, "It's time to add to my cavalry!"

"You only need to add twenty-two under your command!" Liu Tao joked, then looked at Lu Yan, "But this one does need to add it."

"I will look for soldiers from good cavalry to add them." Lu Yan nodded. There is no tough battle to fight at present. Cavalry can be trained while marching, as long as they can form combat power within one month.

Then he looked at Liu Tao and continued, "If there were only twenty-two people, just select them directly in the baggage unit..."

"The sword and shield soldiers and crossbow soldiers have not had enough songs yet, right?" Liu Tao thought for a while, then looked at Guan Yu and Shangguan Yu. Both of them were military waiters, but in fact, the troops under their command were not enough. There were 300 sword and shield soldiers, 200 crossbow soldiers, and 500 of them were put in.

"The problem is, the sword and shield soldiers are fine, these 500 people may not be good at shooting." Jian Yong reminded.

"In the selection of combat soldiers, we give priority to crossbowmen and cavalry. We have a lot of time, and for more than twenty days, it is enough to circle Zhongshan County." Liu Tao thought for a while, "From the future, we march twenty-five miles a day, and the rest of the time will be spent on practice."

"This is a solution." Lu Yan thought for a moment, then nodded and agreed. Gao Sheng, the largest thief in Zhongshan County, has now been awarded the title of head. There are some thieves who are not as good as the weather. Whether they dare to fight or not is a problem, let alone taking the initiative to attack the city.

In addition, it is also good to waste time. It is too early to recover Zhongshan County. It is not better to go south than to go south. It is not better to go south than to go south.

At the same time, I couldn't help but sigh: "I used to hear people say that even if the country is big, war will perish. I originally thought so, fighting is a waste of money and money. But why do we get to our place, and the more we fight, the stronger we become?"

When Lu Yan said that, everyone realized that when others fought, the bigger they became, the poorer they became. They said that during the pre-Han Emperor Wu, this was the case. Later, Confucianism used this as an example in private to explain the principle that "worry will perish."

On the question, why did they get to their place, and they get richer the more they fight?

"What's so strange about this?" Liu Tao didn't find anything strange about this. "Even if others win, they will be killed or injured 30% or 50% of the time. Whether it's pension or re-conscription, they have to pay. On our side, this part of the consumption is nothing compared to the seizure, so naturally the more they fight, the stronger they are! "

When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized that since ancient times, they killed 1,000 enemies and suffered 800 losses. Therefore, the battle examples of fighting with few defeated the most and weak defeated the strong can be recorded in history.

"The other is the supply supply. It's okay for us to fight in Jizhou. If we leave here, the supply line will be too long. No matter how rich the Zhen family is, no matter how much food it is, it will be dragged down by us. The pre-Qin expedition, or the Han emperor's expedition to the Huns in the north, all of them were too long and the transportation process consumed too much supplies, so they finally dragged down themselves first." Liu Tao immediately explained, and time travelers probably knew these principles.

In Bashu, because mountain roads are difficult to travel, manpower often requires transportation of grain. In order to ensure that the grain can reach the front line smoothly, it seems that it is necessary to arrange grain transport soldiers for the grain transport soldiers, and then to the grain transport soldiers who transport grain, they also need to be equipped with grain transport soldiers. They consume unknown amounts of grain to transport grain to the front line. The food and grass materials consumed in one war are three times that of other places.

As a result, the Shu Han became poorer and poorer. It was not just that there were too many deaths, but economic collapse was the key. Liu Tao even remembered that he had read it in some book. In order to save the collapsed economy, Zhuge Liang had to make a hundred dollars and a copper coin as one hundred meters to use it, further accelerating the collapse of the economy. It can be seen that Wolong really doesn't know much about the economy.

But then again, who knows about the economy these days? Let’s wait…
