Please give me a monthly ticket!

After catching fish for three consecutive days, plus the prey they got when they went out to hunt, and the horse meat they got from slaughtered by dead horses and injured horses. Li Chao's food was unprecedentedly rich.

Even those Turkic soldiers could eat a big bowl of hot meal after repairing the city every day. They lived in a house in Fengzhou City at night, flirting with wind and avoiding snow, and ate fish and meat.

The Turks were also very energetic when they built the city gate. In three days, they not only repaired several city gates, but also repaired half of the city walls that were stripped away.

When Su Lie arrived with a thousand Tang troops from Duke Zhao, he saw a solid city that had regained vitality. He was stunned and amazed.

"Awesome, my teacher!"

Li Chao waved his hand disregardlessly, "What a little bit of trivial matters is worth mentioning."

"I'm asking you to come here, I'm going to continue to rush south, and Fengzhou City will be handed over to you to guard it first. In addition, there are more than a thousand wounded soldiers here, including our military brothers and those Turkic wounded soldiers who surrendered. You have taken good care of them, and remember to guard it." Li Chao said to his proud disciple with some concern, "I'm a little worried that if Tong Ye Hu knew that Yu Sheshi would have an unreasonable reaction after he joined the Tang Dynasty."

Although Ye Hu is now going to fight the Yi Nan, if he sends troops south to find a place to revenge, Li Chao has to be on guard. Duke Zhao now has only a small town of Hu Fort, stationed 3,000 troops. There are very few weapons and grain reserves. If the Turks really come, don't have too many. Any 1,000 can make Su Dingfang miserable.

"If the Turkic people really attack, it depends on the situation. If the enemy is strong, then you don't have to stand firm in Zhenhu Fort and take the initiative to retreat to this Fengzhou City. Fengzhou is not far from Lingzhou and Xiazhou, and can come quickly to support it. If it really doesn't work, you can continue to retreat south."

Su Dingfang looked at the fish-killing farm there and said with a smile, "The teacher has taught me a good way to be self-reliant. I will go fishing every day when I look back at Lingzhou. As long as the teacher returns to Lingzhou, someone brings us some salt, and then some arrows, gunpowder and other weapons to supplement it. With this well-repaired Fengzhou City, Ye Hu will send 100,000 to 80,000 people. Otherwise, even if it is 30,000 or 50,000, I can still hold on for three or five months."

"Does the teacher think the Turkic people will call me?" Su Dingfang asked.

The Duke of Zhao came over the mountains and rivers. The road was not far away, but he walked for a few days.

Pigfish sashimi, cut thinly, spread on ice cubes, dip them in some salt, or gently rinse them in the sauce and put them in your mouth, which is simply melting in your mouth.

Su Lie was from Hebei, and his family was also a local tycoon. He was a teenager and followed his father to attack militia and mobs. Until now, his battlefield experience is extremely rich. He has been in the army for a long time and has become more delicious.

This sashimi is the best to his taste.

Li Chao sat in front of him, with a plate of sashimi next to him.

However, Li Chao did not eat it raw. He placed a copper hot pot in front of him, and the charcoal fire was strong underneath. He used a base soup made of pheasant and ginseng, picked up a thin piece of fish, rinsed it into the pot, and rolled up the fish and turned white.

Li Chao picked it up and put it into his mouth.

The same is melted at the entrance, but it lacks the fishy smell, which also eliminates the possibility of parasites.

"Tongye Hu went to Mobei, and even if he received the news, it would take some time. The first person to get the news would be Yugushe. Yugushe was the son of Shibi Khan. He had always been in Mobei and was not familiar with Monan. But only from the fact that he refused to follow Yu Shishi to intercept me, this person has a somewhat conservative and steady personality. Therefore, even if he knew that Yu Shishi was defeated and surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, he would not be able to do anything to immediately intercept the war soldiers."

Li Chao guessed that Yugushi's reaction was more to wait.

He must wait for Tong Ye Hu's decision.

It will definitely take a lot of time to go back and forth.

Li Chao estimated that there would be no reaction there within at least one or two months.

But be prepared for any trouble, just in case.

"As long as you stick to it for the past two months, the court will definitely have troops coming to reinforce."

The court will not let Hetao Shuofang ignore it, so it will definitely send troops to Daibei, Hetao, which was abandoned at the time. Only by sending troops to garrison first, then it is possible to send local officials, immigrants and reclamation, etc.

"As far as I know, the court intends to set up a new road in the Hetao area, which is Suiyuan Road. The jurisdiction includes the front and back road areas, reaching the Yellow River in the south, Yinshan in the north, and Yunshuo in the north of Hedong Daibei. At the same time, the court's Zhenbei Protectorate's Office has also moved from Shuofang to Suiyuan. I have recommended to the court that you will serve as the Grand Governor of Suiyuan Road and also serve as the Zhenbei Protectorate!"

Su Lie's ability was also first-class among the generals of the court. However, Su Lie was not well-born after all. He used to be Dou Jiande, but later he followed Liu Heita. He returned to the Tang Dynasty late. Fortunately, he made contributions in the prefecture city. He also followed Li Chao and joined Li Chao in Longyou to pacify Tuyuhun, defeated Liang Shidu in Shuofang, and defeated the Turks in Hedong, and made many military achievements.

He himself has long been a third-rank military general and has been named a marquis.

This time, Li Chaojue did not avoid relatives and recommended him to serve as the governor and the governor of the newly established Suiyuan Town, and there was no hesitation.

Su Dingfang is fully qualified and capable of holding this position.

Su Dingfang quickly stood up and said, "Thank you for your support from the teacher."

"At up, this is all your own ability and performance. If you are incompetent, I cannot recommend you. I believe that I can decide this. Do it well and don't let the court down for you."

"Students will never let down the teacher's expectations!"

When Su Dingfang came, Li Chao didn't plan to stay too much.

In the past few days, Li Chao has not only brought people to fish and hunt and increase military ration reserves, but also has another thing to do, which is to make ice sledges.

Sledge is also called ice plow and sled.

A sled is like a car without wheels, and a couch without feet.

This tool is very conducive to traveling in ice and snow, and is named because its bottom is like a plow. However, in this era, sledges were obviously not popular, or it is difficult to see in the Central Plains, let alone large-scale applications.

But in the snow and ice, it is indeed difficult to march.

Even if you ride a horse, it is not convenient.

When he arrived in Fengzhou, of course, he would take a boat directly to Lingzhou, which would be convenient and fast. The last time he came to Fengzhou, he took a boat, and when he returned, he also took a boat. At that time, he presided over Shuofang Town and even temporarily built a Yellow River Naval Master.

Although it is just a merchant ship transformation, it is still somewhat powerful.

However, now the river is frozen, and the merchant ships and warships on the river are lying in Neihu Harbor to escape the winter, and they cannot even leave the door.

However, it is precisely because of the Yellow River, that Li Chao can plow back directly by ice.

It is much easier for a horse to pull an ice plow on the glacier than to carry a person on his back.

The ice plow is actually quite simple to manufacture, especially Li Chao just simply carries people and equipment, and it is even simpler when he returns to the food.

Birch, basswood, and Yulin are everywhere, and these tougher woods can be made.

If you set two more tough woods that are more than ten feet long and are roasted on one end and let them raise them high, you can make a shaft. If the other end touches the straight part of the ground, nail the crossbar and add branches to make a carriage. It can hold objects and objects.

It has a shaft and a bottom, but no wheel hub, and it is sliding on the ice and snow with two smooth wooden poles, which is similar to a snowboard.

But it can save animal power extremely, and can pull more things and run faster. You can even put a stove in the carriage, and you can also roast the fire while running.

It doesn't need to be made with sophisticated and sturdy. Li Chao thought it would be enough to just do it casually and run to Lingzhou. He guided people to build the first sled.

The horse was pulled up and ran quickly, just like flying on the glacier.

A group of generals and school soldiers were stunned.

In this way, the cold and cold temperatures of the ice, snow, aren’t they any problems?

"After covering this leather roof, people lie in the carriage, covered with fur, and can also place a stove. It is not windy at all, and it is as warm as it is on the kang at home." Niu Jianhu looked around and liked the more he looked at it.

"A ice plow can pull two or three carriages, and a horse can pull several people and his equipment. Each time one takes turns to catch the car, and the others rest."

Another advantage of pulling a sled is that it can pull several carriages at the same time, without any impact. In this way, several people can drive the car on their turn, one person drives the car, and the other people rest. The maximum strength is to maintain their strength, even in such a severe cold, they can still catch a longer road.

"This thing is good, really good. Why didn't anyone come up with this thing before?"

Yuchi Baolin couldn't let it go too.

In such a cold weather, riding a horse in the snow is quite painful. No matter how thick you wear, your legs will be completely numb and you don’t even feel it after walking for a long time. Your face will be even more frozen and cracked. And if the snow is a little heavy, the horse will be sleepy and tired even if it is not far away.

Now, with this sledge, people can stay on the sledge.

The horse also reduced the burden, and it was not tired to run happily on the sledge.

Their equipment and food can also be pulled back and a small stove can be built on the car, which can not only be used to rush to the road while roasting the fire, but also cook tea and drink tea and eat hot meals.

After the experiment, the sledge was unanimously praised by everyone.

So, everyone started to cut down trees and came back to make sledges. This thing was simple and basically anyone could make it. Li Chao picked some skillful people from it and was responsible for some of the more critical processes. Other clumsy ones were only responsible for cutting trees and cutting wood.

With this combination, Li Chao's number of sledges is increasing significantly.

In just a few days, Li Chao made enough sledges. Although most of these sledges look shoddy, it is far from the luxury and exquisite sledge cars of Li Chao and Li Xiuning, but they can run as well.

I chose a sunny morning without wind and snow.
