The road is very difficult, even if it is a paved cement road, with patterns painted on it to increase friction, but it is still very difficult to drag heavy artillery and flying thunder cannons.

Rain and snow are intertwined, the fog is thick, the road is very smooth, and if you are not careful, the heavy artillery will go backwards!

Donkeys are used to tow on gentler roads, while on difficult slopes, they are towed by hand.

Everyone dragged as hard as they could, the ropes with the wires were pulled tightly, and the heavy artillery was tied up like a lot, and in some particularly dangerous places it was simply hoisted.

It is a trivial matter for some people to wear out their skin, muscle strains are common, and it is not uncommon for them to be bruised and black and fractured when they are touched by such weapons.

Although it is extremely difficult, people grit their teeth and carry it, not to mention the military industry, when there is not enough manpower, even the regular army will also go to build a part and do their best, regardless of officers and soldiers.

The industrious, disciplined, patriotic, and military-minded character of the Oriental nation are fully displayed.

Yes, the Oriental people have also been greedy for life and afraid of death, being a leading party, and greedy for cheapness, but in the current Western Army and Xifu, the performance of the Tang people is very positive.

They all contribute their strength to a great cause, they take the lead, they work hard, and strive for victory and success!

……

It's good that their big brother is very capable and fair, and the key is this, he gives a proper reward to every class that obeys him, even if it is a migrant worker, in addition to the labor stipulated by the state (but Wei Xi is also paid!). For Wei Xi's work, he will be paid according to the market price!

There is another one, the migrant workers who followed the army expedition, Wei Xi's logistics department provided food!

Again, free treatment for illness!

Those migrant workers who have broken their legs do not need to worry at all, the army will definitely do their best to heal them until they recover.

The food is quite good, well-fed, nutritious enough, many migrant workers served in the army, and when they went home for the New Year, their bodies were very strong, and they were all fat.

On the contrary, at home, because of the saving of food, the result is to lose weight.

Wei Xi's actual behavior... In the words of some detractors of him, "he is the second Emperor Yang of Sui", that is, frequent wars and abuse of people's power, there are indeed similarities.

As a result, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty made a song "Death Song of the Waves of the Unknown Jiangdong", and the people rose up one after another.

Those who slandered him wished that Wei Xi would also become the second Emperor Yang of Sui, so they could destroy Wei Xi.

Back and forth, Wei Xi is not Emperor Yang of Sui, and there is a trend towards "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty", you must know that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty basically spent his life in the war, but he has both time and people.

Look at Wei Xi's people and let's do it!

When those migrant workers are off work, eating steaming hot rice, meat and vegetable soup, drinking tea after meals, all of them are smiling, many of them are old horses, once Wei Xi launched a war or do a big project abroad, they have risen up to respond, and the soldiers are enthusiastic to participate, just like the Qin people during the Warring States period, when it comes to the time of conquest, the common people are passionate, there is no so-called fear of war at all.

The Tang army fought as fiercely as a tiger and wolf pounced on food, and the Tang people's workers often had a number of bold elements, following the first batch of troops into the city to rush into the city in street fighting... Supplies the army, send the wounded to the rear, and the bonus is huge!

It doesn't matter if they are dead or disabled, Tang Jun bought insurance for them, and their families have generous compensation!

There will never be a situation like Emperor Yang of Sui who laughed and cried.

In addition, those who have been supporting the former migrant workers for a long time have preferential political treatment, and their family members have extra points when they take government posts, and they may become local "councilors"; it is necessary for local officials to come to their homes to comfort them during the New Year's holidays, and their families can go to the military headquarters for help if they have anything to do, and so on.

As for the treatment of military personnel, not to mention.

Coupled with the large production in the rear and the abundance of materials, the main political needle never made a mistake, just as the migrant workers persevered in dragging the cannons, and he also firmly led his people to victory after victory!

……

The enthusiasm of the migrant workers is so great, the army walked for two days, and the cannon of the migrant workers movement took only three days, although the road that has been repaired is much better, but it can be seen that the enthusiasm of the migrant workers is in sharp contrast with the sabotage of the migrant workers during the period of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty.

With migrant workers, the army concentrates on fighting the war, and material resources are continuously delivered to the front line.

When the artillery came up, the Tang army was not idle, they mixed cement and sand to pave roads, built fortifications and camps close to the enemy's fortifications, and then the heavily armored engineers went up to build roads!

Although the guns and stones on the mountain were not interrupted, the Tang army built roads, then leveled the ground, and built platforms with cement to load troops for battle.

……

The Frankish garrison on the hill, as expected by the Tang army, was led by a white-haired general.

His name is Pushika (Frankish word for "rock"), his offensive ability is not very outstanding, and his personal strength is not strong, but his defense is famous in the Frankish kingdom, which gives him a certain status in the Frankish royal group.

The Frankish kingdom has never lacked warriors who dare to break into battle in a pair of pants, but it lacks generals who can defend stoically and calmly in the face of strong enemies.

The Tang army encountered one, and although his men screamed and tried to rush out of the camp to fight the Tang people, Puscha stopped them, and he had enough prestige for the Franks to deal with the Tang with only stones, bows and arrows, and throwing spears.

He silently saw the Don army busy not far from their position, and compared to the carefree and optimistic Franks, Pushika was slightly worried.

After a distance, he also felt the strong morale of the Tang people, and after walking such a long way, he was beaten for tenacity!

The veteran of Pushika knows that the enemy who is inflexible and tenacious is the most difficult to deal with!

He thought about it for a while, and ordered to set up a position on the mountain again, in case the front position was broken through, he could withdraw to a new position, and if it didn't work, he continued to set up a position and block the Tang people step by step. He didn't believe it, did the Tang army have enough patience and supplies to fight the war!

The Franks were moving, and the slaves were working, and the unkempt, ragged slaves, shivering in the cold, transported materials to build rudimentary houses and dig trenches under the supervision of the Franks.

On the back side of the mountain, more slaves bent down and pulled the cart slowly, and there were people pushing them to the front hill to carry supplies.

A four-wheeled cart loaded with timber unfortunately fell into a mud pit, and a slave covered in mud in front of him crawled on the ground with a belt, and the hemp rope was deeply strapped into the clothes on his shoulders, and several people behind stepped forward to help push it.

Frank's overseer yelled, "Hard! Hard! ”

The whip struck the slaves with such force that they pulled the cart up.

Everywhere there was the sound of ghosts crying and wolves, and although the Frankish kingdom was dressed in the garments of Christ on the outside, it was a savage on the inside, and slaves were commonplace to work, and all Franks were accustomed to it.

The Franks were arrogant, but they didn't notice the reluctant look in the eyes of their slaves!
