The 225th chapter brick road shows its power

The weather in October has become colder, and the morning is even colder. Layers of white frost are spread on the dead grass by the roadside, without a trace of the earlier blue color, adding a little pale.

"drive!"

A coachman drove a carriage in the cold wind and drove on the brick road.

"Driving!Driving!"

Another sound of a horse came, and the first carriage passed through the faint white mist and appeared behind it a long convoy.

The entire convoy was full of four-wheeled carriages, four horses pulled the carriages. Seeing the four strong horses struggling, the carriage was obviously full of goods.

The morning sun rises, and the convoy heads eastward in the morning glow.

Soon a huge city appeared in front of the convoy, and Tongguan was about to arrive.

The convoy passed by Tongguan without any inspection, so he passed the pass and advanced directly.

"How can they pass the level?" A young man was queuing down from Tongguan to wait for inspection and exit. When he saw the convoy entering and leaving Tongguan without any obstacles, he said dissatisfied.

"Speak quietly, this is the army's escort truck, and the vans are loaded with military supplies." A middle-aged man next to the young man said, his father.

"This is the first time your boy has come out!" A businessman wearing a blue cotton jacket looked at the father and son in front of him and said with a smile.

"This is my third boy. This time I took him out to see the world." The middle-aged man grinned.

"This is the army's car? There must be hundreds of cars, and how much supplies must be transported! Why don't there be even a soldier in custody?" the young man asked in confusion.

"There is no soldiers escorted because they are not needed. There is no bandit in Guanzhong now. Only after passing Tongguan is the soldiers escorted." The middle-aged father smiled and said.

Sure enough, a team of guards from Tongguan rushed out and followed the escort vehicles.

"All these are sent to Jiang County?" asked the young man. He knew that Jiang County was fighting now. After the unremitting publicity of Daxing City, Li Yuan colluded with the Turks to plot against Guanzhong and was known to everyone.

"It may be Jiangjun or Luoyang." said the businessman wearing a blue cotton jacket. He often went to and from this brick road and saw military escort trucks many times.

Now Jiang County and Luoyang are fighting. After the continuous material in Daxing City leaves Tongguan, it is generally divided into two directions. Either Luoyang or head to Jiang County.

Daxing City supported two wars at once, but fortunately, Guanzhong has a deep foundation, otherwise it would be impossible to bear it.

The father and son and the blue cotton-padded jacket business traveled quickly in Tongguan and found that the vehicle in front had turned and headed north along the brick road.

"It seems that this time I've been sent to Jiang County!" said the young man.

There were soldiers leading the way in front, and the entire convoy was extremely fast. He arrived at Hedong City at 10:00 noon.

After a brief stop in Hedong City, I immediately continued to head north. Before sunset, I entered the northernmost county town of Hedong County, and waited for orders to transport it to Jiangcheng Front tomorrow.

At noon the next day, the escort convoy successfully entered Jiangjun. A large number of soldiers from Jiangcheng came out to escort, and the convoy safely entered Jiangcheng.

It took a total of three days to come out of Daxing City to sent to Jiangcheng. This speed was unimaginable before, but now it is easily achieved under the operation of brick roads and four-wheeled carriages.

The spacious and straight brick road became the most important road in Daxing City. At that time, it was once considered a waste of manpower and material resources, but now the brick road really plays an amazing role at this moment.

Jiang County Prefectural Office

Since Qu Tutong retreated to Jiang County, he has taken over all the affairs of Jiang County. The prefect of Jiang County is very tactful and knows that Qu Tutong, who suffered a defeat, is in a bad mood. He automatically gave up his mansion and moved to another courtyard.

Now the prefect's mansion has become Qu Tutong's mansion, with strict guards and many soldiers.

In the flower hall of the prefect's mansion, Qu Tutong held a secret order in his hand and sat in the main seat thinking deeply.

"General! What will His Highness Dai King send you?" Sang Xianhe asked.

"His Highness Dai King has issued another defensive order!" Qu Tutong said in a deep voice.

"Defense?" Chen Shuda, the commander of Jiang County, said in surprise.

However, Chen Shuda has the youngest official position. Although he has doubts, he dare not ask too much, and Sang Xianhe doesn't have so many concerns.

"Why do we need to defend? Now our army has obviously gained an advantage." Sang Xianhe said frustratedly.

Sang Xianhe Nai is a general and has long wanted to attack.

"The reason is the military supplies sent to you today?" Qu Tutong said expressionlessly.

"Today's military supplies also specifically require us to pick up the convoy." Sang Xian and his mind moved.

Qu Tutong nodded.

"Come on!" Qu Tu Channel.

Two soldiers came in with a few cotton armor and coats and placed them on the table in the flower hall.

"Is this?" Sang Xianhe stepped forward and looked at such a strange cotton coat. The clothes with the double-breasted clothes have never appeared in this era. This cotton coat looks a bit strange. Anyone will be very surprised after seeing it for the first time.

"This is the military uniform this winter formulated by the Ministry of Works." Qu Tutong said, touching the thick military coat.

"Uniform?" Chen Shuda and Sang Xianhe stepped forward in confusion and picked up the military coat.

Sang Xianhe lifted up his military coat and waved his hand on his body.

"Not bad, very warm!" Sang Xianhe praised.

Qu Tutong and Chen Shuda also picked up military coats and put them on.

"Although it looks a bit weird, it's really warm." Uncle Chen praised.

"In addition to the cotton coat, there are also new styles of armor and cotton armor." Qu Tutong said, pointing to the cotton armor below.

The two of them tried one by one and it felt strange, but overall it was OK.

Sang Xianhe said in confusion: "But what does this have to do with His Highness Dai's defensive orders."

Chen Shuda had an idea and said, "These are all things to keep warm, are they..."

Qu Tutong nodded: "Yes, Your Highness Dai Wang's intention is to defend until it snows and then fight Li Yuan after the cold winter comes."

"A decisive battle in winter!" Sang Xianhe was overjoyed, "Our army has this powerful weapon, and it will definitely be able to defeat Li Yuan."

"Congratulations to General, our army is expected to win!" Chen Shuda said loudly.

"This battle will definitely win!"

Sang Xianhe was also full of confidence, and at the same time admired His Highness Dai King and sighed in his heart. He didn't know how His Highness Dai King's little head looked so wonderfully.

Qu Tutong stroked the cotton coat in his hand, and the cotton coat exuded a hint of warmth, but it could not melt the coldness in Qu Tutong's heart. The battle in Huoyi was a shame for his life. Now the hope of victory was right in front of him, and he didn't care about waiting for a few more days.

"Send the order and send all the military coats and cotton armor to let the soldiers get familiar with it first." Qu Tutong ordered.

"Yes!" Chen Shuda responded.

"From today on, all the soldiers who are vigiling are twice as many. I believe that with these warm things, vigiling will no longer be a problem." Qu Tu Channel.

"Yes." Sang Xianhe responded.

The two took the order and left.

Qu Tutong walked out of the flower hall and felt the cold wind outside the road.

"This is not cold enough!" Qu Tutong said in his heart.
