On the Haotian River, the unique rowing chants kept ringing, and countless large boats were shuttled back and forth.

Zhao Hao stood proudly on the bow of the boat and looked at the busy scene on the river, with a trace of contentment on his face.

Under his governance, Haotian Territory has become the most prosperous area in the entire Taihua Continent. The land and water transportation here and the prosperity of transactions are unmatched by other places.

Moreover, these huge advantages will turn into fruitful results.

As for what the fruit is, in ancient times, it was naturally the expansion of territory.

This was the case in ancient times. When a force reached a certain level, it would begin to expand outwards. They all had a resounding slogan, which was to "unify the world."

Unify the world.

Zhao Hao really never thought about this problem before.

However, now he is a little eager to try.

Because, his original goal has almost been achieved. He has broken through the limit of 100,000 kilograms and became the top master on this continent.

Next, it seems to be a good choice to unify all the scattered tribes in the world and let everyone live a life of abundant food and clothing.

His trip this time was to Zhennan Fort to discuss the transfer of men, horses and supplies with Elder Nanhua. The camp in Taodu was almost completed, and it was time to start gathering men and horses in preparation for the expedition.

The big ship sailed down the river, and within three days, Zhennanbao Pier was already in sight.

At this time, the Zhennanbao dock was different from the past. Under his strong promotion, all the territories were selecting sites along the Haotian River and building ships frantically. He didn't even know how many ships his major lords had built. Anyway, at this time

The huge Zhennanbao Pier is almost crowded.

When the Grand Elder of Nanhua learned that he was coming, he naturally had been waiting at the dock for a long time.

As soon as Zhao Hao got off the boat, Elder Nanhua came up to him and said happily: "Haotian, you are finally here. My men and horses have been stationed in the north of Zhennan Fort for many days. When will you arrange for a big ship to take them to Netherworld Valley?"

The camp next to it?”

What's the rush?

Zhao Hao did not answer but asked: "Great Elder, how is the food transfer going?"

Elder Nanhua pointed to the long cargo shed at the back and said with a hint of pride: "Look, it's already weighed over a million kilograms. I'm ordering my tribe to pull the rest. Within a month, we can definitely pull it out."

over."

One month?

Do you know how much food is consumed in a month now?

Now, he has gathered 30,000 horses near Netherworld Valley. Adding in the 10,000 horses of Grand Elder Nanhua, that means 40,000 horses.

Forty thousand horses, even if the average daily ration for each person is only five kilograms, they will consume two hundred thousand kilograms of grain a day. In other words, this one million kilograms of grain is enough for five days.

Fortunately, he had already mobilized millions of kilograms of grain and stored it in places such as Taodu, Netherworld Valley and Garuda Fort. Otherwise, he would not have been able to pull all the grain.

You know, from Zhennan Fort to Netherworld Valley and Taodu, it's a boat trip against the current. It takes five days, but you may not be able to get there.

Zhao Hao shook his head helplessly and said: "As the saying goes, before the soldiers and horses move the food and grass, go first. Great Elder, let's not rush to recruit people. You can let your men transfer the tens of millions of kilograms of food from Nanhua to Zhennan Fort first.

In addition, other elders must also send some food, and at least 20 million kilograms of food must be mobilized this time, otherwise the 80,000-strong army may starve."

Before the soldiers and horses move, the food and fodder should go first?

Twenty million pounds!

Elder Nanhua couldn't help but be surprised: "Do you need so much food? An army of 80,000 can eat more than 1,000 kilograms of food in a month, right?"

Zhao Hao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Great Elder, one month is not enough. It will be good if we can gather all the troops within one month."

this!

All right.

Elder Nanhua thought for a while, and then said awkwardly: "You are the commander-in-chief, so you should make the arrangements. You can do whatever you say."

That's pretty much it.

Zhao Hao nodded slightly and said: "Okay, I will dispatch a thousand carriages for you, and you can arrange for five thousand young men to go to Nanhua City to transport grain. As for the remaining five thousand elites, they will be shipped at the dock to load grain. I will mobilize

Dozens of large ships are coming to take turns to transfer, and starting from tomorrow, they will load at least 500,000 kilograms of grain every day and transport it to the Netherworld Valley Wharf."

Elder Nanhua nodded without hesitation and said: "Okay, I will make arrangements now."

After saying that, he took his men and turned around and walked towards the camp to the north of Zhennan Fort.

Zhao Hao sighed slightly and patrolled around the dock again. Then he led a group of personal guards to the shop where knives and dimes were exchanged, took out 200,000 dimes, loaded them on the ship, and then

Then he hurried back.

These two hundred thousand dimes were used to make arrows. At this moment, the 30,000 men and horses gathered in Netherworld Valley had almost nothing to do. Zhao Hao naturally wanted to find some work for them.

After returning to the Netherworld Valley camp, he began to summon his generals again to explain the mission.

When all the generals arrived, he briefly introduced: "Now that the camp and the bridge have been built, we are waiting for the Grand Elder Nanhua and other elders' men to gather. However, before that, we have to do one thing well. This

The first thing is to reserve food. You must remember that in a war, the most important thing is food. If we run out of food, even if we have 80,000 troops, it will be a lie."

This is not difficult to understand. If you don’t have anything to eat, why fight? If you don’t starve to death, then it’s not bad.

After hearing this, all the generals nodded thoughtfully.

It is no joke that the soldiers and horses should go ahead with food and fodder before they move. If you wait until 80,000 men and horses are gathered together to prepare for the expedition, it will be too late to consider the issue of food.

Zhao Hao then ordered: "Nanjiang, please do your best and lead your men to the east first. Renovate the three fortresses on the east and build more places to store grain. Remember, there are two new Garuda buildings in the middle."

Each fort must be able to store at least two million kilograms of grain, and the new Asura Fort in the east must be able to store at least four million kilograms of grain."

Wu Nanjiang really didn't expect that Zhao Hao would be the first to call him and let him be solely responsible for rebuilding the grain storage place.

He couldn't help but excitedly cupped his hands and said, "Yes."

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Hao ordered again: "Shahe, get ready and lead your men to build more carriages. In a few days, food will be delivered one after another. You must transport 500,000 jins a day to the three fortresses in the east.

Go inside."

Hearing this, Shahe couldn't help but excitedly cupped his hands and said, "I obey."

Zhao Hao thought for a while, and then ordered: "Ah Hua, Ah Shan, during this time, you should carefully select and select a group of corps commanders, captains and captains to prepare to receive the other eight elders. I have already

We have discussed with the great elder that in this battle, the other eight elders will not participate in the command. Their men and horses will be given to you to command. Each of you is responsible for commanding the men of an elder. The men and horses they can gather are about 5,000. You guys should be careful.

Think about how to command the extra five thousand troops."

And such good things!

Ah Hua and Ah Shan have long wanted to command thousands of troops. Unfortunately, they only have so many tribesmen under their command, and the number of elites they can select is only more than 2,000 people. Therefore, commanding thousands of troops is almost impossible for them.

It's impossible.
