Think about it in future generations, why would three lonely PLAs dare to fight against Yinjun's entire camp? If an online author dared to write such a plot, he would definitely be scolded to death.

This is a war with hot weapons, not a war with cold weapons.

However, this is true.

At that time, armed with weapons of the Wanguo brand, he actually launched an attack on the most powerful army on the planet, and defeated this powerful army with a powerful air force, army, and navy.

What does this rely on?

In fact, it is because of having strong self-confidence.

Because of his self-confidence, Jiannu boasted, "If there are not even ten thousand Jurchens, they will be invincible."

Jiannu, a casual Niulu, rushed towards a Ming army of ten thousand people without any scruples, and had an absolute chance of defeating this Ming army.

This is the self-confidence of the slaves.

Of course, the Tang army was also confident. Li Jing led 3,000 cavalry to attack Yinshan Mountain at night. If they didn’t have confidence, what kind of courage would have allowed them to fight 3,000 against hundreds of thousands? And win?

But the problem is that with the Battle of Saerhu, the Battle of Hunhe, the Battle of Liuhe, and the Battle of Dalinghe, the Ming army suffered a lot of defeats, their morale was gone, and their self-confidence was also gone.

However, the problem is that Ning Haijun is the biggest alien in the world. They are not afraid of Jiannu because they believe that they can defeat Jiannu and make Jiannu's head become the silver in their hands and the land as a reward.

"I humbly Zhang Huaize pays homage to Marshal Cheng!"

When Zhang Huaize saw Cheng Shijie, he was in a workshop, instructing the craftsmen to process some unnamed parts, but these parts made Zhang Huaize speculate what kind of machinery they should be.

"Are you coming to apply?"

"yes!"

"I want to build a road!"

Zhang Huaize bowed and said: "As long as someone has money, it doesn't take much effort to build a road like this... Should we build it in Jinzhou City?"

Cheng Shijie shook his head and said: "No, this road is very long!"

"how long?"

"Almost five hundred miles!"

Cheng Shijie pointed to the south and said: "From Lushun to Gaizhou, the whole journey is five hundred miles!"

Ning Haijun is now an army made of mules and horses. A four-wheeled carriage can carry a team of twelve fully armed soldiers. They can run for thirty or forty miles and change horses every time, which can last twelve hours a day. Within, Jinzhou's troops were sent 200 miles away.

There is a prerequisite for this, which is to have a horse-raising station. Now that the station has been established, a relatively complete official road is still needed.

People without thought, he must worry about.

Cheng Shijie has now begun to think about building a highway. Of course, this highway and the highways of later generations are two completely different concepts. Although Cheng Shijie did not have enough ambition to build a complete transportation system in the backward environment of the late Ming Dynasty. network.

However, this does not prevent Cheng Shijie from better clearing his transportation lines. Next year, the fifth year of Chongzhen's reign, Ning Haijun will definitely start a fierce and bloody battle with Jiannu, because Huang Taiji cannot watch Cheng Shijie start farming.

If Huang Taiji did not send troops in the spring, he would lose the entire southern Liaoning forever. At that time, the Ning Navy would have a firm foothold in southern Liaoning.

Cheng Shijie's army has expanded to 20,000 men, and the Dongjiang Army has more than 40,000 troops. The army cannot be expanded any more. Any further expansion will exceed the limit of Cheng Shijie's financial resources.

How to solve the security problem in southern Liaoning when the number of people is relatively small? The only way is to learn from the German army during World War II and carry out mobile defense.

This faces a serious problem. Southern Liaoning must have roads that can smoothly pass four-wheeled carriages.

However, the problem is that in the view of Zhang Huaize, who is well versed in general affairs, Cheng Shijie is too whimsical.

More than 500 miles of hard pavement requires a lot of money. If you have money, it is not impossible.

Zhang Huaize asked: "I wonder how much money Cheng Shuai can give Zhang, how many people, and how many stones?"

"this?"

Cheng Shijie said: "I don't have any stone materials at the moment. I can transfer 25 villages and 100 households to give you 2,500 people, and give you a group of 2,600 young and strong refugees. If there are more refugees in the future, Some of them can give you six thousand heads!"

Zhang Huaize felt that his head was as big as a bucket. There were only 6,000 people for the 500-mile road. He really wanted to ask Cheng Shijie if he knew how big a project this was?

Cheng Shijie continued: "I don't have any money, but I can give you 30,000 shi of food!"

Zhang Huaize silently calculated in his mind that if the road was narrower, it could be completed: "How wide does this road need to be?"

"Two cars can run parallel, four lanes in both directions, it can't be any narrower!"

Cheng Shijie thought for a while, and found that the two-way four-lane carriageway in later generations was 26 meters long, but the width of the four-wheeled carriages in the late Ming Dynasty was about 1.86 meters, so it could be made narrower.

"It needs to be at least eight feet wide!"

"How long does it take for the commander to finish?"

"How long will it take you to build it?"

"At least three years!"

"Three years is too long!"

"Commander, you only gave 6,000 humble men, and there is no ready-made stone. This is the shortest time. There is no place to buy stone in southern Liaoning. You can only collect and mine it from everywhere. Fortunately, in Jinzhou

There are a lot of usable stones that can be mined, but these stones must be smashed and ground with hammers until they are usable. More than a million kilograms of stones are used for one mile of road surface?"

Zhang Huaize said with a wry smile: "Six thousand people are pounding stones day and night. Each person can only break out seven or eight hundred kilograms of stones per day, and they have to be pounded before they can be used... In this way, the stones used for one mile of pavement need to be at least

It takes five to ten days, and three years to cover 500 miles of road, which is already very fast..."

Song Xiance also advised: "My lord, if you want to use work as a relief, it is better than letting these people idle here. But spring plowing will be done in three months at most. Don't you need people in the fields? Building roads and bridges, although it is also

Good governance always hurts farmers. If the timing is delayed, it will affect a year's harvest..."

Only then did Cheng Shijie finally understand what Zhang Huaize was worried about. He smiled, patted Zhang Huaize's shoulder, and whispered: "Don't worry, I will not do anything to damage the harvest or the farming season. You

They only considered the progress of human power, but did not consider that machines are more powerful than people!"

"mechanical!"

"That's right!"

Cheng Shijie then laughed and said: "Look at this machine, it is a hydraulic crusher. As long as the water flow is strong in the spring, the stone can be broken into pieces that can be used for paving roads!"

The working principle of the crusher is very simple. This machine was prepared by Cheng Shijie to bake cement. In addition to the crusher, there is also a ball mill for making cement. However, this thing has not been manufactured yet, and there is still a long way to go.

While Cheng Shijie and Zhang Huaize were discussing how to build a highway in southern Liaoning, densely packed warships appeared on the sea surface of the South Island. These warships faced the wind and waves and sailed with full sail. There were still dozens of nautical miles away from the South Island.

Ning Haijun's navy soldiers couldn't wait to take off their gun jackets and prepare their shells.

On the flagship of Ning Haijun Navy, Li Fang stood on the deck, looking very excited. He was ready to move and gear up.

"You're just here for a bitch..."

Li Zhixiang glared at Li Fang and said, "How dare you trick the commander into sending troops?"

"What is bewitchment?"

Li Fangqiang said rationally: "The commander-in-chief also needs this big fat pig Meng Xianhan. This bastard Meng Xianhan has a lot of money. If the commander-in-chief takes Meng Xianhan's money, I will get it."

Li Zhixiang asked in confusion: "Is it not difficult for you to marry a good family with your current status? Are you just staring at an abandoned woman?"

"What is an abandoned wife? That is my true love!"

"Well, your beloved, what's the good thing?"

Li Fang shook his head and said, "That's because you don't understand the beauty of a mature woman!"
