Work does not always bring people a pleasant feeling, but they have to be done. Especially the more important the position, the less likely it is that people can do it completely according to their temperament. Many times, because of the responsibilities, people have to work hard. Respond with spirit and heart.
On the second day of the "fieldside conversation" with Lu Yanyu, Zhang Tie took Lu Yanyu, General Weiji, who was in charge of logistics in the entire Anxi Governor's Mansion War Zone, and Sinong Hall Sinong, and took a ride together. Feizhou inspected the situation in the four states of Huanzhou, Kangzhou, Ningzhou and Bingzhou.
In addition to inspecting Guantian, Zhang Tie is more importantly inspecting some important mines and large industrial production bases and factories in the four states.
In addition to food, the war zone's responsibility is to store the weapons of each legion in the war zone, ranging from belts, uniforms, water bottles, general swords, armor, and baggage, to various steam tanks, armored vehicles, and various military vehicles. Supplies provided.
The total number of Taixia legions gathered in the four prefectures of Anxi Governor's Palace is now nearly 480 million. With so many troops, including Taixia's Upper Fourth Army and the state army of Anxi Governor's Palace, it is necessary to complete The supply of logistical equipment for such a large army is definitely not an easy task.
Fortunately, Taixia has a deep foundation and is backed by a strong national power mechanism. Once the logistics and military supplies of nearly 500 million people are dispersed throughout the Anxi Governor's Mansion, it will no longer be a difficult task. A Class A city supported by the equipment manufacturing industry, thousands of medium and large mines and metallurgical production bases, tens of thousands of supporting industrial production factories, more than 10 billion acres of official land, and more than 7 billion are still in the war zone, directly or indirectly The people serving the legions in the theater, the sound ground and air transportation network, the perfect logistics operation and support mechanism integrating military and civilians that have gone through hundreds of years of testing... These are the confidence that Taixia can face the demons in the western theater.
The speed of the flying boat is very fast. If it does not stop, it can fly almost 20,000 kilometers in one day.
Zhang Tie made a quick tour of several states, which took less than seven days. It was during these seven days of inspection that Zhang Tie truly understood a truth - the so-called holy war is not just a holy war for knights, but a holy war for everyone.
A metallurgical base in Ningzhou. Zhang Tie saw an experienced technician who had retired for many years return to the smelting workshop for the sake of jihad, taking several apprentices with him to personally supervise the heat quality of each furnace of molten steel.
Among the official farms in Bingzhou. Zhang Tie was furious when he saw the foreign border people who had fled from the subcontinent and settled down in Taixia, and were so angry when they heard that the demons had attacked Taixia and were going to destroy their homes again.
In a small city in Huanzhou, Zhang Tie saw a whole city of people, no matter men, women, old or young. Every household was working day and night in their own workshops to make belts and boots for Taixia's army. A special steel fastener.
In an arsenal in Kangzhou that produced steam armored vehicles, Zhang Tie saw the director and chief engineer of the arsenal move their families to the production area and establish a military order to ensure the quality of the factory's products...
After seven days, Zhang Tie met many such people, and most of them were ordinary people, fighting for the jihad. Everyone is doing their best in their positions.
It was also after seven days of inspection that Zhang Tie truly understood how much power he, the ambitious general, held.
Within the four prefectures, there are more than 5 million officials at all levels who directly take orders from him. Any of his orders can affect the command of more than 7 billion people working for the logistics system of the war zone, and government-run industrial and mining enterprises at all levels above designated size in the war zone. There are 68,772 in total, and they all obey his orders. The accumulated funds of the Taixia War Zone that he can use this year are 56 billion gold coins. Half of this money will flow into government-run enterprises, and most of the rest will be in the war zone. Internal bidding is conducted to purchase various military supplies and equipment. Those who are eligible to participate in the bidding are wealthy families from various states within the war zone. Those wealthy families who are eyeing the procurement of military supplies in the war zone make Zhang Tie pay attention to every place he visits during this inspection. They were all cheered and supported by the local wealthy families, and they were extremely fawning, just like emperors.
In addition to these, Zhang Tie now has a huge amount of resources at his disposal. The number of airships he can dispatch in the war zone reaches 64. The number of airships has reached more than 200,000, and other ground vehicles are countless. He has the final say on the trains and railways in the entire war zone, as well as the inventory, deployment, and allocation of various materials.
With such power, it is no exaggeration to say that one can cover the sky behind a war zone with one hand.
After understanding this, Zhang Tie could better understand Lu Yanyu's ambivalent mentality of worrying about gains and losses when he first met him.
For those who love power, such power can make people feel like they are in heaven, rejuvenated, and can make people as hard to extricate themselves as drug addicts. But for Zhang Tie, this huge power only allows him to feel a little better in just a few days. He was vain and inflated for a while. When the spring tide brought about by this huge power subsided, what impressed him most during this inspection of the war zone were the ordinary figures he saw in ordinary posts, because in those ordinary positions, In the ordinary figure, what Zhang Tie saw was his parents, and another version of himself who had not obtained the Black Iron Castle...
This inspection did not let Zhang Tie get lost in the illusion of power, but instead made him more determined about what he wanted to do.
On January 20, Zhang Tie and Lu Yanyu returned to Kangzhou City after their inspection. On the same day, shortly after Zhang Tie returned to Kangzhou City, two airships from the Zhulong Territory landed in On the square of Si Nong Hall in Kangzhou City.
…
Zhang Tie smiled, still spinning three walnuts in his hand, and looked at the open hatches on the two spaceships.
As soon as the hatch of the first spaceship opened, Zhang Tie's elder brother Zhang Yang and Li Tao, Lu Yishan, and Sun Qiming walked out one after another, with many people following behind the four of them.
When Zhang Yang saw Zhang Tie, a smile appeared on his face. Others saw Zhang Tie, especially the two rows of majestic golden-armored guards behind Zhang Tie and the smiling men wearing the uniforms of a third-grade agricultural officer waiting aside. Everyone seemed slightly excited.
Zhang Tie didn't want to talk about ostentation, but at this time, even if he didn't talk about it, the invisible aura of the people around him said it all - in the entire Taixia, there are probably only governor-level officials. Only then are they qualified to have officials from the third grade stand aside with a kind smile and accompany themselves and others.
…
"Thank you for your hard work..." Zhang Tie looked at his brother and smiled.
"It's not hard work. It only takes a few days to come here by flying boat, even from Youzhou..." Zhang Yang also smiled, looked at Zhang Tie from head to toe, nodded, and the two brothers exchanged glances. My brothers don't need to be polite, they keep everything quiet.
Seeing that the two brothers Zhang Tie and Zhang Yang had finished meeting, Li Tao and Lu Yishan hurriedly stepped forward to greet Zhang Tie.
"I've met the head of the family!" Both Li Tao and Lu Yishan had a look of excitement on their faces, and they couldn't hide their awe for Zhang Tie. Neither of them expected that Zhang Tie had only been in the war zone for less than half a year. Zi soared into the sky and became a powerful figure in the entire Western Taixia War Zone.
A month ago, the news that Zhang Tie was appointed by Grand Sima Zuoqiu Mingyue as the general of the theater of war spread back to Youzhou. The entire Youzhou, the entire Zhulong Territory and Huaiyuantang were shocked. As Zhang Tie's family general, Li Tao and Lu The two people in the same mountain were even more excited. The improvement of Zhang Tie's status was equivalent to the improvement of the status of the two of them. From the moment Zhang Tie was appointed as General Juji in the war zone, it also meant that Zhang Tie's influence had already Officially walked out of the Northeast Governor's Mansion and officially became the top-level figure among Taixia's wealthy families and knights. At this moment when he saw Zhang Tie again, Li Tao was somewhat reserved, while Lu Yishan's face was already flushed with excitement.
"You're welcome!" Zhang Tie smiled and nodded to the two of them, "You have done well in the Zhulong Territory during this period. I have heard about it. I hope that this time in the Western Theater Command, you will also show your skills in the Zhulong Territory. Come with your ability and contribute to Taixia..."
"It's all the ladies in Tiexin Hall who are well-led and strategized. We dare not take credit. This time the head of the family challenges us, we will naturally fight to the death!" Li Tao and Lu Yishan looked at each other, and Li Tao said with clasped fists, somewhat Lu Yishan, who spoke awkwardly, nodded repeatedly. Both of them knew that when Zhang Tie called them here this time, he would naturally put them to good use. Following Zhang Tie, the two of them would inevitably start a new height in their lives and careers in the Anxi Governor's Mansion. As long as Zhang Tie's instructions were given, If things are done well, the so-called wealth and fame are just a matter of leisure.
Zhang Tie nodded, very satisfied with the attitude of the two people.
Seeing Li Tao and Lu Yishan finishing their greetings with Zhang Tie, Sun Qiming took a deep breath and stepped forward, "I've seen a real person!"
"I called you here this time. I wonder if my junior sister Lu Shasha blames me, my senior brother, for preventing you and your wife from seeing each other for a short time?"
Although Zhang Tie was joking, he did not regard Sun Qiming as an outsider in his words, and his tone seemed to be close. Sun Qiming felt a little excited when he heard it, and he clasped his fists at Zhang Tie, "If you have something to do, I will help you. That is the trust and favor given to my Sun family. Before I came this time, my wife had carefully explained that I must not miss what the real person told me. My wife also asked me to bring a message to the real person, so that the real person can be here. You should also take care of yourself on the battlefield. All the junior and senior sisters who were on Qianlong Island are still in contact with each other. All the senior sisters and junior sisters hope to see the real drunken sword dance again in the future... "
The little junior sister who used to be a crybaby and shy is now a mother, a wife, and has her own family. It is inevitable that she will be criticized and gossiped by the outside world. Since Zhang Tie revealed his identity, although he is still in Zhulong Leader, Zhang Tie had never met his junior sister in private again. At this time, Zhang Tie heard Sun Qiming talk about the relationship between the senior sisters on Qianlong Island and the expectations and blessings he had for him. Zhang Tie's heart, All of a sudden, I have mixed feelings and emotions...
