Chapter 488 War is all about money
Captain Qian held up the wine glass that was filled with Gong Fanxing, and couldn't drink it for a long time, just watching the whispering liquid in the glass.
"Oh, I just hate that our strength is still too weak. Compared with the millions of Beixin's troops, our less than 50,000 troops are really...ah! If we are strong, how could our brothers be afraid of those damn Beixin people? It's a pity that we are incapable and cannot revive the mountains and rivers of northern Guizhou on a large scale..."
This made everyone think deeply again, and some people were excited, and they looked like they were willing to do it incoherently, "Sir, please take us out for work!"
"General, we are not weak now. Why not be able to take advantage of our efforts? If we can regain a city, it's a city!"
Haha, it is not that simple to talk about liberation and seize the city?
It is simple to seize, but it is too difficult to stick to it after recapture.
Xiao Wenye had thought about restoring the vast land and mountains of northern Guizhou. He had long wanted to take a bigger step, not only to stop moving around the Beiling Mountains, killing and destroying small forces from the enemy, but then turning around and running.
He thought it was Riya and Yeya, how much he hoped that he could gradually recover lost land, occupy the next area, and protect the people to recuperate. Unfortunately, due to the helplessness of reality, they had tried to attack and occupy the city, but in the end they had to give up because of various problems such as manpower.
Since then, the combat plans they implemented have been to go out of the valley in batches to seize supplies. At the same time, small-scale guerrilla warfares have killed the enemy and turned around and ran away. They dare not stay outside for too long. After all, they have few people and have no reinforcements. The enemy who has ruled the north must not be allowed to make dumplings.
After a long time, after six years, there was nothing else to gain except for the scouts and those under the city of Chi who had seen the stability on the outside.
Looking at the excited uncles and the contemplative father, Xiao Yulou, who was in charge of all kinds of affairs in the valley, had to interrupt everyone.
"Dear uncles and uncles, my nephew understands your mood, but things are not that simple.
We have 50,000 troops in full, how can we fight head-on with the enemies that are now full of Beixin?
Moreover, the money is just about money when fighting. Our Hulu Valley and other villages want to survive, and the money is just about money when burning.
It takes money to eat salt;
The medicine costs money;
Even the soldiers who have sacrificed will still need pensions or silver;
Not to mention, the food that everyone eats into their mouths still costs money;
Everyone dresses and eats, open their mouths to eat and drink. Now the grain produced in the grain is barely available for everyone to eat, and weaving cloth can barely provide the military uniforms of the soldiers. However, in order to make the soldiers and the people eat and wear warmly, we have to find ways to transport some food and cloth every time we go out. Many times, if we are empty-handed, we have to buy it and transport it in even if we spend money.
We need to spend money everywhere. Dad, uncles and uncles, the money accumulated in our military treasury is now not saved by ten...
Without money, even if we have ambitions, even if Beixin is not strong, even if we have many ambitions, we will not be able to fight this battle..."
It’s not that Xiao Yulou wants to save everyone’s fun, but it’s really the money that is burned in war!
That's the reason why a penny stumps a hero.
The uncles and uncles were warlike, wanting to take revenge and wanting to liberation, and he could understand, but he had to pour cold water from everyone to make everyone calm and let everyone see the current crisis in Hulu Valley.
After saying so much, he actually didn't say the most important thing, that is, the weapons in their hands should be replaced. After so many years of use, they have gone out of the valley to fight with the enemy with high intensity. Not to mention the loss of arrows, they only talk about the swords in their hands, which are all dull...
There are also protective armor and galloping horses. These have all become aging and need to be replaced in urgent need of replacement. Unfortunately, it is still silver.
Although they had gained a lot of money at the beginning, they did not see how much they had gained every time they came out, but compared to the speed of loss, it was really a drop in the bucket.
It can be said that if they hadn't planned carefully and racked their brains every day, they would have been unable to make ends meet...
The heavy topic made everyone present feel heavy. Xiao Yuqi sat by the kang next to the window in the house. After hearing her ears, she felt a little thought in her heart.
Her father, the uncles and uncles around her, and even their own elder brothers, what were they thinking about, how did they want to restore the northern land, avenge the innocent people who died in vain, and how did they think day and night that they wanted to trample on the beasts in the north, and stand upright in front of the Emperor of Nanqian to ask, do they still remember these bloody soldiers in the north, and these innocent people who were abandoned...
However, all these expectations and hopes must be supported by endless money.
My eldest brother said something very well, that money is the one that fights in war.
If it weren't for this, why would those damn Beixin people invade? Wasn't they all for profit?
For the dream of her fathers and for the poor heroes in her collection who are still trapped in the mission, Xiao Yuqi felt that she had to do something.
Isn’t it just a shortage of money? She can earn it!
This thought vaguely arose in her mind. Xiao Yuqi's movements of picking up the food in the bowl were a little faster. At the two tables outside, she did not continue to listen to the conversation between her father, uncle and brothers, and only thought about her own affairs.
The whole collection is rich in money and food. Since the year when Hulu Valley began to be cultivated, my father has paid back the money and food he once contributed. Even since then, he has cultivated the land of Tiankeng, and has harvested a lot of food, fruits and vegetables every year. She has thought that she would take it out for everyone to use.
It’s a pity that I don’t know what my parents think, saying that the valley is already running, and they can’t always point to themselves. Since then, their entire collection has only been in and out.
Except for the good things produced, she carried them out in and out in a small boat for her family to eat and use, all the other harvests each year and quarterly were sealed in the entire collection and never moved.
She was still terrible when talking about this.
The three brothers always take turns to go out with their father to gain knowledge, but they are controlled by their mothers. All kinds of homework for reading and literacy are her daily compulsory courses. She has never been able to go out again since she entered the mountain.
This is not a refugee, it is simply a jail!
Whenever Xiao Yuqi thought of this, he felt depressed and his strength to chew meat in his mouth became stronger.
My parents and brothers are determined not to use their own things. The whole thing is piled up like a mountain. There are difficulties in the valley now. So what if she takes all the things out and turns them into money, and turns them into materials that are urgently needed in other valleys, and transport them back openly?
