Luoyang, Beijing. Dong Zhuo's letter attracted the attention of the ministers. After all, the war costs too much money.

"Keep fighting. The entire Guanzhong tax may be gone. Now, the imperial court has been with the republic, Montenegro Zhao'an, why can't the Liangzhou rebels be Zhao'an. One minister said. Firefox had heard about such an incident when he walked past them.

"Oh, the direction of history is completely different from the development of history. This is really a small butterfly of the Amazon that can cause even greater fluctuations. It's just that the little butterfly that fanned this hurricane is, I don't even know where. Firefox thought so.

The rebel situation, which would have taken some time, has suddenly appeared. This made Firefox feel that the development of history was indeed different.

But think about it carefully, there were so many wars and rebellions all at once, and most of the finances of the entire Eastern Han Dynasty had to be spent on this, and Firefox was worried about the people of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Because it's a vicious circle.

"If the imperial court wants to quell the rebellion, it needs more and more fiscal taxes to support it, but the problem is that they will not issue bonds, nor will they borrow money to fight, the only way is to increase taxes, but to increase taxes, the situation of the common people will become more different. Their lives are even more difficult. In such a situation, the people who have no way to survive will become more and more desperate and embark on the road of rebellion, and such a situation is simply the beginning of a great disaster for them. And the more rebellions, the more taxes the court will increase, and in the end, the situation will be more difficult to deal with, and the results can be imagined. Firefox said worriedly.

"This situation is a bit similar to the late Ming Dynasty. It is a pity that this is still the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and those local warlords have alleviated the turmoil of such a situation to a certain extent, but in the overall situation, the turmoil has exacerbated the large-scale death of the people. Hey, this is a turbulent society, and they don't know much about what kind of situation such a society will maintain. If such a situation can be maintained for a longer period of time, it seems that the entire Chinese nation will have an even greater disadvantage. Firefox couldn't help but think so.

And the ministers of the DPRK and China also have such worries, after all, they are still very worried about such worries. What if this continues? This could seriously affect the development of their situation. The crisis of the imperial court will be even more difficult to solve, and this is the most difficult situation for them to face. The key to how to solve such a problem is to stop the war.

Dong Zhuo's letter just illustrates some of the bad conditions on the front line, and their situation is very unfavorable. First of all, the supply of grain and grass was insufficient, there were too many troops requisitioned by the imperial court, and the grain and grass were also smuggled by the eunuch group, which directly led to the insufficient supply of grain and grass, and the defeat of the war was buried in it at the beginning. The second is low morale, and some soldiers have been fighting continuously and are physically and mentally exhausted. Coupled with the lack of food and grass, morale has plummeted to an alarming level. To let such a group of soldiers fight is to wait for these soldiers to mutiny. Such a dangerous situation. The generals on the front line were very worried, but this situation did not fundamentally reverse this situation, which also made them feel very worried, after all, such a situation made it difficult for them to continue.

The last point is the most terrifying, that is, the soldiers have no hope, all the soldiers who fight have no expectation of the future, and this war is more and more dragging down their hopes of fighting.

Hedong, inside the headquarters of Ma Heng. The staff officers were discussing Ma Liu's combat operations, and by the time they received such a telegram, Ma Liu might have already started a military operation. After all, this kind of thing is very possible. But staff officers must anticipate the current military operations. Showing some bad factors can only make their situation more favorable.

"Such a bold in-depth operation will bring us a lot of trouble, first of all, logistics supplies, we don't have to worry about food and grass, after all, the troops can be replenished from the local area." An operational staff officer said that as for how to replenish it, it is currently a robbery. And it's all meat, dairy products, which makes them feel even more that this situation is favorable.

"But the problem is that our ammunition replenishment, our weapons are based on firearms, artillery shells, ammunition, if we don't have these, our combat superiority will suddenly fall behind a lot, and that situation will be very unfavorable for us, and we can't watch this situation develop, which will make our situation even worse." The operational staff officer said.

This is indeed a matter of concern. The logistics supply of the Republican Army has gone beyond the simple supply of grain and grass, because in the previous mode of war, the demand for weapons was mainly focused on some consumables, but his scale was not very large. However, after the introduction of firearms, the consumption of ammunition quickly occupied a very important point in the logistics supply, although the proportion increased considerably, and did not exceed the grain and grass. But the problem is that he is a core of operations, the replenishment of ammunition, and an important operational expression to measure combat effectiveness, and under such a sign, it seems that it still takes a lot of courage for them to achieve such a situation, which means that their situation still needs to make some greater adjustments to change, and this is the most disadvantageous place for them at present, and it is also a situation that they must seriously face.

If they do not receive sufficient ammunition in a timely manner, their situation will continue to be extremely disadvantageous. This situation is for them. It's a huge bad situation, and they have to deal with it positively.

"But the problem is that the materials that our logistics supply can provide can only reach Hedong, and the situation of transportation from Hedong to the front line is still not optimistic, and only a small amount of supply can be carried out." A staff officer in charge of logistics also said worriedly.

In fact, Shang Wen made a limit at the beginning on the scale of the Hexi operation, which could not exceed two divisions, because if more than two divisions were to fight, the scale might become very large, but in fact, the strength of the front-line operation could only maintain the size of two brigades at most, and most of the troops were still deployed on the logistics supply line.

Although many things can be produced locally, this situation is the beginning of the most unfavorable situation for them, and if this situation continues for a while, their situation may become much more unfavorable, which is their current situation. This situation only makes their situation worse.

"It's a factor, but behind these negative factors, we haven't changed a lot, and I want to know some of the positive factors." Ma Heng said. It is true that the problem of logistical supply is difficult to change all at once. After all, there are a lot of economic implications for this kind of problem. For example, the four-wheeled carriage that has appeared, or the ox cart, which has a large carrying capacity. Horse-drawn carriages are faster, but the problem is that they are more demanding on the road. The road to the east of the river can barely move forward, but in the west of the river, such carriages will completely collapse, and the transportation on the front line mainly relies on relatively backward two-wheeled vehicles, and even unicycles are needed in some places. It's hard to change this situation, after all, it's a road construction problem, and Ma Heng can't do anything about it.

"On the one hand, the battle was the battle, and our troops went into the rear of the enemy. However, our forces are too small, sir, our troops need to constantly launch attacks to expand our offensive superiority, only in this way can our situation become much more favorable, otherwise, this situation will seriously drag us down, which is still a disadvantage for us. A staff officer said.

"That is, they must not stop, they must constantly maneuver, launch greater mobility." Ma Heng said. Most of the staff officers nodded their heads in acknowledgment.

Pingyang County. Inside the headquarters of the separate division.

"I'm not a brigade commander. To be the regiment commander, I am a major general, to be the regiment commander, it's okay, but the problem is, you can't do something like this, this war thing, can't miss me Pei Yuanshao, this main attack, I Pei Yuanshao must go. Pei Yuanshao said excitedly when he saw Zhou Cang, he heard that the independent division had a combat mission, and immediately ran over to perform such a mission.

Seeing the mountain division crossing the Yellow River, he was angry in his heart, if it weren't for their large losses, maybe such a task would be theirs. If he had known that was the case, he would not have done it.

"Well, no. There are some special things about this mission, people like you will definitely make trouble in the past, we are a feint attack this time, if you are in command, we will suddenly become the main attack. Zhou Cang said angrily.

didn't go to Hexi to fight, he couldn't complain anyone, after all, this was a result of their own making, such a result, what else could he say, he could only accept it.

"This, please. Lao Zhou, just let me go. There was no war to fight, and I, I was uncomfortable all over my body. Pei Yuanshao said.

"Otherwise, I can be an infantryman." Pei Yuanshao said. Zhou Cang shook his head and said no. If he was really allowed to go, the feint would definitely become the main attack. This is definitely not what they want to see.
