Meng Gong was a general, his great-grandfather Meng An and grandfather Meng Lin were both generals of Yue Fei. In history, after the outbreak of the Song and Mongolian War, he dominated the wars on the Second World War line in one third of the Southern Song Dynasty. The last commander of the Southern Song Dynasty, Li Lan Kuanglan continued his life for the Southern Song Dynasty for 50 years.

"Of course I know that."

At this time, Meng Gong's face was also full of bitterness.

The distribution of materials has always been a big problem.

At present, the first line of Xiangyang City is 1.45 million, and the daily consumption of grain and grass is an unimaginable astronomical figure.

However, if the grain and grass are transported from the rear, one third of it will be consumed on the road, and the loss due to various reasons, such as the humid and moldy weather in the south, will have to be removed. Therefore, if the grain and grass are transported from the rear, it will only be used in Xiangyang City. Fifty dans are left.

In order to save materials, half of the material cost of the army in Xiangyang City now comes from the taxes of the people near Xiangyang City.

So there is this kind of strange tax, such as the city tax for entering the city.

"But now that the imperial court is at the juncture of life and death, it can only make the people suffer a little harder. By the way, what is the current trend of the army of the Han Kingdom?"

When he came back to his senses, Meng Gong asked.

"General Qi, according to the reports of the three brothers of Dengzhou, Tangzhou and Caizhou, the army of the Han Dynasty accumulated a large number of troops in Heyangfu, Xuzhou, and Guidefu, and the number was no less than 400,000, and they practiced day and night to build All kinds of armaments.""

"It looks like the battle will break out in the spring of next year.

Meng Gong became worried.

"If the order goes on, all troops must step up their training. If there is a carrier, military law will be carried out!"

Meng Gong knew that although the number of troops in the Southern Song Dynasty had an advantage, the quality was far behind.

There is still half a year left, and with the idea of ​​cramming the buddha's feet, Meng Gong can only let the army step up day and night drills.

But here comes the problem again.

There are three levels of ration supply for the army.

One is that when there is no war, a soldier needs two stone rations a month, which is more than 53 catties. For thirty days a month, one day is 1.8 catties of rations.

It sounds like a lot, but you must know that the ancients were different from the descendants. The food of the descendants was oily, and the calories needed by the human body were easily met, so they ate less.

But in this era, let alone cooking oil, even eating meat is a luxury, and you can only supplement calories by eating a lot.

If the sergeants practice day and night, the calories will be further consumed, and the rations will have to be increased. The daily rations consumed by a soldier will be about 2.3 to 2.5 catties.

The third type, that is, in wartime, sergeants often need to run long distances, or fight with the enemy for their lives. At that time, the rations will skyrocket to three kilograms per day.

Don't underestimate the change of half a catty or a catty of rations.

Currently, 987 has 1.4 million troops on the front line of Xiangyang City. If they don't practice, they will consume 2.5 million catties of grain every day. Once they practice day and night, they will need to consume 3.4 million catties of grain.

In one day, I gained 800,000 to 900,000 kilograms.

What about one month? What about half a year?

And you must know that the supply of the rear of the Southern Song Dynasty is not only the front line of Xiangyang City. On the vast border between the Southern Song Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, there are more than three million troops on display, and the soldiers in every place have to eat.

As for deducting soldiers' rations?

Hehe, there are too many examples in history, if you don't want to cause the soldiers to mutiny and rebel, just let the soldiers not eat enough.

So for a while, the pressure on the people throughout the Southern Song Dynasty increased again.
