After the large, medium and small sleigh trucks were ready and sent out in two directions, carrying food along the way, and rushed directly to Jingmen and Xiaogan, Liu Mingqi and others took Yulinwei and Qianniuwei on their way back. journey to Beijing.
The carpenters have to stay and make some more sleighs to prepare for replacement, and then they may have to go on an expedition to Hunan.
By the way, Sima Bei really needs to have fun.
After he let the sleigh arrive in Xiangyang, he drove the empty sled directly to Suizhou, which is parallel to Xiangyang, and then went north from Suizhou to Xinyang in the Gyeonggi region.
After a long detour, more than a dozen sleds and a group of experienced carpenters were sent to help the support base at the other end of the Gyeonggi region build more standard sleds.
The terrain of Xinyang is very important.
It goes all the way to the south to meet the agreed Xiaogan, and then to the southeast of Xiaogan is Huangshi and Huanggang.
After supporting these two places, we can immediately extend to Yuexi and Wangjiang in Anhui to the east.
Further south is Jiujiang Prefecture, an important town in Jiangxi.
"It is better to go directly to Xiaogan. After Wuhan, you can go straight to Yueyang, Hunan, on the bank of Yunmeng Ze, and it can also radiate to Changde, Hunan.
Look, we can handle disaster relief in parts of four provinces in one go!
And these places are the farthest west of the Jiangnan area for disaster relief, and they are the farthest areas and can only be reached at the end.
Going from the Gyeonggi area is actually the fastest and most convenient.
So the demand for sleds and carpenters is huge.
Sima Bei¡¯s support came at just the right time.
Because the practice in Xinye has proven that large, medium and small sleighs are safe and reliable, and can transport food hundreds of miles away in a snowstorm.
Now that there are finished products for reference, and the testimonials of the carpenters who participated in the production, the construction and transportation work in Xinyang began to speed up instantly.
Because the progress was so fast, the bran and grain prepared everywhere in the capital, totaling half a million shi, were all sent out in five days.

"I originally thought Jiangnan was the main force, but why is it now the center of the imperial court?"
¡°But the situation is so good and the road is being opened so quickly. Of course, it is impossible to continue to wait for Jiangsu and Zhejiang to cross the mountains and ridges.
If you have the strength, you can do it yourself.
Emperor Jinghe and a group of ministers gritted their teeth, and took out three million shi of rice and wheat flour from the warehouse, and then exchanged 9 million shi of bran at a ratio of one to three, for a total of 12 million shi of grain. It was divided into two parts and rushed to Xinye and Xinyang.
It just so happened that when the food arrived in two places, the blizzard weakened significantly.
Calculating the time, the blizzard has been raging for more than thirty-seven days now. According to normal circumstances, it should be time to weaken.
It will be at least half a month and a month from the time the blizzard stops falling to the time the blizzard completely melts away and roads, crops, and houses can see the light of day again.
If we want to return to normal again, I¡¯m afraid it won¡¯t be until March.
By then it is still unknown whether we can rush to plant rice and whether we can produce to save ourselves.
Therefore, the pace of disaster relief cannot stop for a moment, and food must continue to be transported to the two lakes areas.
When Liu Mingqi and others left, 20,000 capable workers had already arrived.
On the one hand, they are waiting for the snow to stop, and on the other hand, they are training how to clear the snow better and faster.
When Liu Mingqi and the others returned to the capital, 20,000 people had already quickly started clearing the snow, digging all the way towards the intended target.
¡¡
Speaking of which, when they stayed in Quhe Town, the thing that was most mentioned in Fei Ge's letters from Xiangyang, Jingmen, Shiyan and other places across the street was not food, but briquettes.
During a snowstorm, it is impossible to go out. If there is not enough firewood stored at home, this period of time will definitely be the most difficult.
Even if there is firewood stored, after nearly a month of consumption, ordinary people¡¯s homes will have very little left.
At this time, the first Hubei village that the small sleigh arrived at - Xiwa Village. Although the food delivered made people happy and applauded, it was the thousands of briquettes and dozens of briquette stoves that made them most grateful. .
People who don¡¯t have a briquette stove can just dig a hole in the ground at home, burn the briquettes red, put them in the pit, and then keep adding new ones.
In this way, not only can water be boiled for cooking, but the whole family can also be ensured.The army is done.
More people don¡¯t know that in fact, the original railways in Britain used wood as tracks because of the extreme lack of iron, and trains ran on wooden tracks.
It¡¯s just that the wood was too easy to wear and couldn¡¯t support it at all, so later on, iron ore was gradually imported from overseas colonies and turned into railroad tracks.
Liu Mingqi naturally cannot build a train now. He just wants to restore the horse-drawn carriage track transportation like the Qin Dynasty. This way the efficiency can be increased ten times and the loss can be reduced ten times.
But it¡¯s not easy either.
First of all, the wear and tear of the wooden rails is too great and cannot bear the use for many years.
It would be great if it were a railway track, but if the track is laid on the side of the road, if no one is watching over it, it will be dug up completely in three to five days.
? Then you need to use road protection teams and repair teams.
The road protection team and the repair team are two long-term expenses that need to be borne. How to implement fund allocation, road maintenance, collection of tolls, etc. is a trouble.
Moreover, in the past few years, the focus must be on food production and ensuring people's livelihood, and all other expenditures and innovations must be postponed.
We can only wait and see what happens before we talk.

Note: The more I read the information, the more I feel that Qin Chao is incredible.
According to my preliminary judgment, the most important reason why the Qin Dynasty was so powerful was that it used Legalism as a system to mobilize the whole country, enforce orders and prohibitions, concentrate all efforts on doing things, and make military success a law, and kings and emperors must abide by it.
At the same time, the Mohists were the main force in manufacturing various machines, equipment and equipment that were conducive to war - such as bronze swords, overwhelming crossbows, straight roads, wooden rail transport roads, etc.
Then he respected the farmers and vigorously developed agriculture in the central Sichuan and Hanzhong plains to provide enough food to supply the needs of the war.
The thing they attach least importance to is empty talk Confucianism. Looking at the subsequent dynasties, it is simply the opposite. Only Confucianism is valued. Legalism and Mohism are almost extinct. No wonder they are no longer as powerful as the Qin Dynasty. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
