Chapter 2: Bloodshed on the battlefield and escape from the Immortal Gate
Chapter 7: Problem Solving
It's easy to say, Guiyuan, Suiyuan, and Jinyuan are the three border cities. They know the importance of border passes best, and to put it more directly, most of the 100,000 border troops are soldiers from the three cities.
They understand that once there is a failure at the border, they will be the first to suffer. Even if it is not for the country, but for themselves, they must not let the border troops freeze and starve.
The local officials in the three cities are not fools. They are far away from the capital, and the officials from the capital simply don't want to go to these remote places, so the supervision of them is already lax. Some things are done illegally, and the court is beyond the reach of them.
Of course, the strategic materials in stock are not easily touched, but it is still possible to do some tricks. In addition, as soon as local officials mobilized, the people responded one after another and donated money and materials in large numbers, so in less than a month, there was a huge amount
Materials.
Of course, there is another most important reason, and that is the appeal of the goddess. The people have enough trust in the goddess and believe that she can keep them safe.
Since supplies at the border are in urgent need, how can the common people not donate generously? In fact, even this transportation brigade was mostly organized by the common people voluntarily.
In the current non-wartime situation, the transportation capacity that various city governments can mobilize is simply unable to complete the transportation of such a large amount of materials.
In fact, what reassures Jiang Meiliang is that the supplies belonging to the imperial court and the stocks in the three cities are enough to support the border army for half a year.
If a war really breaks out, the border commander can directly issue military orders without the need for central transfer orders, asking the three cities to transport supplies to the front line.
The supplies raised this time are enough for the frontier army to last three months, plus half a year's inventory reserves, so there is no need to worry for the time being.
"Miss, the reason why the people are so enthusiastic this time has a lot to do with you. They really hope that you can meet them in person so that they can have a glimpse of your style."
The situation was not complicated, and it was explained clearly in a few words, but in the end Lu Luo also made a request.
"This is necessary. The people support the border troops so much, how can we let them feel cold?"
Jiang Meiliang nodded in agreement without hesitation.
Luluo: "We are just riding back to report the news. The transport team is moving slowly, so it will take three days to arrive, so there is no rush!"
Yun'er: "Ah! Miss originally planned to leave for the capital tomorrow."
Jiang Meiliang: "It's okay. I came to Beijing originally to solve the supply problem. Now that the urgent need has been solved, there won't be much problem in the evening."
Hongling: "Miss, are you really going back to the capital?"
Jiang Meiliang: "I'm afraid we can't delay it. The imperial court has issued three imperial edicts in a row. My father is already having a difficult time in the capital. If we find excuses for those people again, I'm afraid something will happen."
Hong Ling: "The imperial court is really stupid. Winter is approaching, which is the most difficult time to guard the border. If you delay your trip by returning to Beijing, the border will be leaderless and it will be in danger."
Jiang Meiliang: "This time I plan to travel lightly and ride alone back to Beijing in casual clothes. I can arrive in ten days. I should be able to get back before the freezing period."
Luluo: "No, absolutely not. It's too dangerous for you alone. There is no peace in the country now."
Jiang Meiliang: "It shouldn't be a big problem. I'm riding alone, with a small target. The trip is secretive. I won't make any stops along the way, so I shouldn't encounter any danger."
Hong Ling: "Absolutely not. You can't do anything alone. There is no one to report the news. No one will know if anything happens. The risk is too high."
