Chapter 505 The Great Migration
Chen Liang had to hurry up and send back the next batch of ordnance ordered by Murong Jun and the Western Army.
"Captain, do you really want to take away tens of thousands of cattle and one million sheep?"
"Even if all the transport ships are taken away."
"I think the amount of luck is incredible!"
Chen Liang estimated that the wear and tear on the forty three-thousand-dan transport ships was not too serious.
Hanging behind a paddle wheel merchant ship, it can keep up with the speed.
Good guy, he only has more than 11,000 sailors.
Returning with two hundred large and small ships at a time.
There is no one else on this scale.
Shen Lin suddenly became worried.
"The cattle must be taken away."
"Sheep? Pick out ewes and lambs. Take as many as you can fit."
"There are already more than three million of them in our camp."
"It's really... it's hard to take care of yourself in the winter!"
I can’t finish it!
Liang Guang consoled him.
"Captain, don't worry!"
"Let's seize the time. This time, we won't have to worry about it on the road."
"You can come back in a month at most."
"Aren't tens of thousands of the families of these Shaanxi soldiers also going to be relocated?"
"Without two trips, the shipment will definitely not be completed!"
Shen Lin has always been keen on relocating the families of officers and soldiers. How reliable!
Iron City also needs enough adult dependents.
Besides, there are so many bachelors, don’t they need young women to supplement them?
There are 30,000 new soldiers, but more than 100,000 family members are willing to follow them.
The people here are really good at having children, and there are only a few people in a family of four.
Leaving the barren Loess Plateau.
I heard that you can go to Lushui Tiecheng where you can eat white rice and meat.
Who wouldn't?
They rushed back to transport 10,000 oxen.
It's because of the bumper rice harvest this year.
The average yield per acre of land has indeed reached the minimum yield of three quintals.
This has made officials from the Department of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry very happy.
They want to take advantage of this winter to ask for another 200,000 acres of rice fields in Huangcaotan.
Completely solve the food problem of Tiecheng people.
At the same time, they also need to fill in the swamps and plant pasture.
The plan is to develop 300,000 acres of pasture.
If you do this, what does it mean to send millions of sheep back?
One acre of pasture is enough to graze fourteen to five sheep.
Of course, the Department of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry plans to raise cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks at the same time.
Tiecheng people must get rid of the situation of simply eating fish.
Shen Lin was very pleased.
Everyone's enterprising spirit deserves encouragement.
Meat is becoming more diversified.
In the Zhou Dynasty, Tiecheng's living standards were unimaginable to others.
"When you come back, take with you the more than 20,000 Boy Scouts who are about to go on vacation."
Shen Lin explained.
"I don't expect them to go to the front line to fight."
"Walking more and seeing more will be beneficial to their growth."
"Bring both men and women."
"You don't have to cause trouble on the road, just leave your horses at home."
"Chu'er... should be pregnant."
"Oh, I really want to see our two babies!"
When Chen Liang left last time, the eldest lady was about to give birth.
It’s been almost a month, she must have given birth!
He smiled and comforted.
"Captain, don't worry!"
"Old Huang is always taking care of you!"
"It said that the fetal position is very correct and I can definitely have a normal delivery."
"or?"
"When I come back, will Miss Sisi draw the baby?"
Um?
This is a good idea!
All the generals were very interested and wanted to see what the future young city lord would look like.
They all made a fuss and asked Chen Liang to bring more portraits.
Early the next morning.
Shipping and land transportation are two-pronged.
A large number of cattle and sheep were sent to Qinzhou, and a few days later, Chen Liang set sail.
In addition to the Dingxizhai River, there are more than ten trawlers left in the river.
Throughout the northwest, the Tiefeng navy moved cleanly.
Shen Lin entrusted the camp outside the city to the Lanzhou garrison.
Collect all 50,000 armored cavalry and head to Lingbo Mountain to join Lu Zhichang and Murong Dongsheng.
The decisive battle is about to begin.
Zhe Kelie and Yang Wenhan also took a detour.
Commanders from several parties gathered together.
There are only a little over 200,000 left in the Tatar Eastern Route Army.
This group of people is composed of the Uighurs, the largest tribe in the Western Regions.
No matter how dull they are, they should still know about the changes in Xihetao.
But the Uighur Karakhan simply looked down on the Western army's combat power.
In other words, in his eyes, the Yellow-headed Uighur is just a little ant.
So what if you can dance happily?
Can the six to seven hundred thousand Yellow-headed Uighurs compare with the orthodox Uighurs with a population of nearly three million?
Their territory borders the Zhou Dynasty and Liao Kingdom to the east.
Crossing Congling in the west, it is not an exaggeration to say that there are millions of people wearing armor.
Is Liao Emperor Yelu Hongzhi arrogant enough?
The population of the Liao tribes on the prairie was only about two million.
In Yelu Hongzhi's autographed letters to Kara Khan, he all claimed to be his younger brother.
The Yellow-headed Uighur is just a pawn of Kara Khan.
Now, the whole army of cavalry has been wiped out, which is good.
This Khan will accept your Gaochang capital without any ceremony.
Yang Wenhan said with a solemn expression.
"We can't wait any longer."
"Based on the tribe intelligence we have made."
"Kara Khan is still deploying troops, and the number of reinforcements may... be as high as half a million."
When Murong Dongsheng heard this, it was too unimaginable.
"This... Uighur has so many young men who are proficient in riding and shooting?"
Zhe Kerie said.
"some!"
"Kara Khan spent thirty years merging the Western Uighurs and Northern Uighurs into his Central Uighurs!"
"It's not an exaggeration to say that you have a million dollars worth of armor."
"The yellow-headed Uighurs in Gaochang have always been very respectful, so they were not annexed by Karakhan."
Several people totaled it.
After breaking up the family, the Yang family has been holding on to the city and village, and nothing has been captured.
The two units combined have only 60,000 riders.
Tiefeng's army numbered fifty thousand, and Murong's army numbered just over fifty thousand.
Lu Yanshi has finished the Battle of Dragon City.
He rushed back with 30,000 fine cavalry.
The Yongxing Army was the largest, with 140,000 cavalry capable of fighting.
This does not include the 100,000 recruits being trained by Murong Army and Yongxing Army.
But the five coalition forces combined.
There are only 300,000 cavalry capable of fighting in the field.
The equipment is definitely better than that of the Uighur army.
But when it comes to riding and shooting skills.
How can the people of the Central Plains compare to the Uighurs who grew up on horses?
If Kara Khan had assembled an army of 700,000 men, the war would not be easy to fight.
Shen Lin said decisively.
"Then the decisive battle will take place in three days."
"First kill the 200,000 Karakhan headquarters!"
"The Zhe family and the Yang family are responsible for cleaning up the scattered Western Region cavalry on the border."
"The decisive battle is up to us!"
Yang Wenhan and Zhe Kerie have no objection.
Along the border, which is hundreds of miles away, there are fifty or sixty thousand Uighur cavalry!
It was enough for the two of them to fight.
If they hadn't been allocated five thousand pieces of armor, they wouldn't have dared to leave the city to fight in the field.
November 15th.
Six pontoon bridges have been erected on the Yellow River.
A large group of cavalry rumbled onto the east bank.
Karahan, who was stationed in Xiazhou, received the summons from the sentinels and did not show any weakness.
In fact, most of his reinforcements have already arrived.
Shen Lin and others knew nothing about this.
When the two sides meet in the vast Yinchuan Plain.
Shen Lin shook his left hand holding the telescope and said angrily.
"Damn it, this old guy Karahan is quite cunning!"
"Actually... such a huge cavalry was assembled?"
