Chapter 1213, indispensable mobility

Regarding the matter of college textbooks, Luo Ji first let the people in the Ministry of Education deal with it themselves.

After all, he is currently in combat mode and cannot log off the line. Moreover, the civilization of all worlds has been promoting cultural education for many years. Most of the people in the Ministry of Education have ink in their stomachs.

To a certain extent, it might be more appropriate for them to write textbooks than for him to do it himself.

In this way, I will write this matter down for the time being, and then find an opportunity to formally discuss it later.

Before that, Luo Ji's attention was undoubtedly focused more on the technological development of civilizations in all realms.

Of course, during this period, he could not help but be concerned about the construction progress of the Great Wall in the Western Region.

After the beginning of summer, the western border of Wanjie Civilization has become even hotter.

At this moment, a simply exaggerated city wall has been built on the dividing line connecting the entire western savanna and desert.

This city wall starts from the western border and spreads all the way to the northwest along the border. Now at a glance, it is almost impossible to see the end, and the length has reached an exaggerated level.

Thousands of miles, maybe not yet, but at least it has already stretched thousands of miles.

Throughout human history, the Great Wall took a long time to build.

At this time, Luo Ji's civilization of all realms, relying on various steam power equipment, undoubtedly had a construction power that far exceeded that of the original Celestial Empire.

This strong construction power is destined to its construction efficiency, and it is also destined that the Great Wall built by their civilization will definitely be stronger and taller than the one in history!

In the construction site under the wall, a large number of shirtless construction workers and steam equipment wearing hard hats were doing heavy work.

Building the Great Wall requires a large amount of stone, and these stones will be provided by several quarries closest to them. After processing, they will be pulled to the border by steam trains specially responsible for transporting stone, and then transported here.

The manpower and material resources consumed here will undoubtedly be an astronomical figure.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is the largest construction project in the civilization of all worlds at present!

After confirming the latest construction progress of the Great Wall, Luo Ji closed the report in his hand and based on the latest assessment of construction efficiency and cycle by the engineering team, he calculated that before the winter of next year, his Great Wall would be

Officially reaching the level of 'Ten Thousand Miles', and directly covering the entire Western Territory behind!

Luo Ji felt a little excited at this moment, and he couldn't wait for that day.

What must be mentioned here is that the length of the Great Wall is entirely up to the player's discretion. As long as you want, you can build a 100,000-mile Great Wall. After all, you want to wrap an entire piece of the Central Plains in it.

, the length must be more than ten thousand miles.

But under this premise, as long as the standard of "ten thousand miles" is reached, the effect of the Great Wall, a five-star man-made wonder, will be triggered.

The longer you make it, the wider the effect will be.

Luo Ji's ambition is to cover the entire Central Plains under the effect of the Great Wall, making his civilization of all realms impregnable!

According to Luo Ji's own simple estimation, this time, he might actually have to build a 100,000-mile Great Wall!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but become more excited.

In this way, time flew by. During this period, the Ministry of Military Affairs, led by Chief of General Staff Guo Jia, jointly sent a report requesting that "riding skills" be added to the daily training of every soldier.

In the original civilization of all realms, ordinary infantrymen did not need to practice riding skills at all.

On the one hand, it is naturally unnecessary, but on the other hand, there are not so many war horses and money.

It is no exaggeration to say that if this was done, the military's annual military expenditures would have to at least triple.

Although it is a civilized finance, this money does not come from the strong wind. Even if it is a civilization of all realms, it has to weigh it carefully if it wants to do this.

Guo Jia is undoubtedly aware of this, but naturally he has his own reasons for making such a request at this time.

And this reason is clearly stated at the back of the report.

For movement within civilization, the efficiency of steam trains is naturally far greater than that of horseback riding.

But the problem is that the steam train has flaws. It can only travel between two cities along the rails. Relatively speaking, it lacks the convenience of free movement.

At the same time, actions outside the border must also be taken into account.

Beyond the border, there were no steam trains for them to ride.

So even now, one fact that cannot be denied is that war horses are still an indispensable and important mobility force.

In order to maintain strong enough support efficiency in such emergencies, it is necessary to let the soldiers practice riding skills and equip the army with a large number of war horses.

I have to say that Guo Jia's considerations are reasonable.

But it's really unworthy of having all the troops equipped with war horses.

According to this arrangement, the various border fortresses alone would require more than 150,000 war horses. How could this be affordable?

At the same time, this issue will also involve various departments within the civilization of all realms.

Thinking of this, Luo Ji decisively summoned all the important officials under his command, including Guo Jia, Lu Yang, and Ye Hua, to discuss the matter.

After all, if this matter is to be accomplished, it depends on whether funding resources are allocated, and this will involve various other departments within the civilization of all worlds.

It is no exaggeration to say that at this stage, any big move will affect the whole body!

Luo Ji summoned several of his important ministers, and after nearly a day of meetings, all parties finally reached an agreement and allowed "riding training" to be added to the daily training of each soldier, thus allowing each soldier to

, all have the ability to ride horses.

However, war horses are different from ordinary horses after all. It is impossible to equip all members with war horses.

If we do this forcefully, the exaggerated military expenditures every quarter to raise those war horses and train cavalry will probably drag down the civilization's finances.

In this way, concessions must be made in terms of the number of war horses.

At the same time, it was precisely regarding this issue that the military headed by Guo Jia and the civil servants headed by Lu Yang and Ye Hua could be said to have been arguing for a whole afternoon.

In the end, the dizzy Luo Ji made a final decision and allowed each military region fortress to be equipped with 6,000 war horses.

Being able to dispatch 6,000 mobile troops for reinforcements at any time and at any time is already considered a high level of configuration.

If there is an emergency, 6,000 fully armed soldiers riding war horses for emergency rescue will not be able to cope with the arrival of follow-up support troops!
