Chapter 1673: Fighting is a matter of consumption

On June 30, the 40th year of Tianxuan, the Holy Land of Emperor Yi’s territory did not hold the mid-year meeting of the 40th year of Tianxuan. Qu Mao also stayed in his office in the lord’s hut to analyze the battle reports coming back from the mainland.

Just when Qu Mao was about to go out for a walk, Xuande and Xinping walked into the lord's cabin hand in hand and found Qu Mao in Qu Mao's office.

Looking at the two people in front of him in astonishment, Qu Mao asked in surprise: "Why did you two come to me together? Did something big happen on the battlefield in the Central Continent?"

Xuande glanced at Xinping and said, "Xinping, why don't you tell me first? I have a lot of things to do, and it may take a little longer to talk to you."

Xinping nodded and said, "Sir, the decisive battle strategy adjustment meeting on February 2 seems to have been very effective so far.

Through the efforts of the Air Force, Logistics Department, Liberty Town Aerodynamic Research Studio and Liandao Flight Research Institute, we have achieved breakthrough results in military transport aircraft. The number of military transport aircraft in service now reaches 31. It can release 5,000 paratroopers at the same time.

After nearly five months of paratroop operations behind enemy lines, three members of the God's Chosen Alliance have been wiped out. More than 900 God's Chosen player prisoners of war have been added to our novice village. The families of these more than 900 God's Chosen player prisoners have been added. The total number reached 23,166.

The bad news is: after the more than 900 God-Chosen player prisoners were imprisoned in Xinshu Village, they seemed to be much more excited than the past God-Chosen player prisoners, so we had to concentrate them in the northeast corner of Novice Village and monitor them. He was detained and did not enjoy the treatment of prisoners of war in Xinshou Village after the village became autonomous.

Mr. Li Pengda also regularly arranges for members of the Xinshou Village Autonomous Committee to take turns entering the area to appease them, but no results have been seen yet. "

Qu Mao thought for a while and said: "Well, these God's Chosen players who belong to the God's Chosen Alliance are prisoners of war. Shayuan Pass is responsible for providing guard soldiers. The other matters can be left to the Novice Village Autonomous Committee.

 In the entire Novice Village, the core strategy of our Yidi Territory has been adjusted to: try our best to help the scientific research studios in Free Town incubate results and immediately transfer them to industrial production.

Xinping, your side is mainly about Xinshou Village, but what about Xuande? "

Xuande said with a bitter face: "Sir, the problem on my side is that the consumption of the current decisive battle is too huge. On the one hand, the consumption of raw materials in the new military industrial park, and on the other hand, we have accumulated so much money in the Holy Land of Emperor Yi's territory and the Eastern Continent. The food supplies that have been available for many years are beginning to show signs of being in short supply.

If the current intensity of fighting continues for more than a year, our food will be exhausted, and the rate of production cannot keep up with the rate of consumption..."

Qu Mao was shocked and interrupted Xuande: "Damn it! Xuande, I can understand the consumption of raw materials in the new military industry, and I can also think of ways to solve it.

 But how could there be a shortage of food? I can't understand this.

Our Emperor Yi territory has a large number of remaining folded air forces in the Holy Land that have been transformed into farms belonging to the territory. Since entering the general offensive stage, I sent Jia Sixie and Franklin King to take charge of food production. The farms belonging to the territory only need 3 A season of grain can be harvested every month. Not counting our grain exports that started very early, how could there be a grain deficit? "

Xuande smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, the distribution of territory to residents and the food exported are not under the control of the logistics department, but the rations for each army and the food relief for the original residents in the newly captured territory are under the control of the logistics department.

Let’s not talk about how many new territories we have captured in the Western Continent, the Southern Continent, the Northern Continent, and even new ones in recent years. However, since entering the stage of counter-trend general offensive, our Emperor Yi territory has been in a wartime state with hundreds of millions of soldiers for a long time. Over the years, the food has been exhausted. Moreover, after entering the stage of general offensive against the general trend, the development center of Yi Emperor's territory has long been transformed from agriculture to military industry in recent years, and it is expected that food production will be insufficient. "

Qu Mao thought for a while and said: "I really didn't expect that the form of food production is so complicated, but the war has reached this level, and it is impossible to adjust the strategy temporarily.

Inform Jia Sixie and Franklin King and let them think of a solution.

I remember that the Fenghua Empire was developed as the granary of the war in the Central Continent. If the potential of all the cultivated land in the Holy Land of Emperor Yi's Territory has been exhausted, then find a way to cultivate more territory-affiliated lands in the other 12 branch territories. Farm the land and resume agricultural production on the other three continents as soon as possible. "

Xuande nodded and said: "Sir, my subordinates will make arrangements, but you may still need to provide an additional batch of food that is enough for the population of the Holy Land and the Eastern Continent to feed for a month, about 2.7 trillion units of food.

In addition, there is currently a significant shortage of raw materials for military industry production. The metal mines in the northwest region of the Eastern Continent have basically been exhausted and smelted, and the wild resource mines in the Holy Land have also been basically completely exhausted.

At present, the desert metal mines between the three towns of Minmetals City, Metal City and Iron Mine City in the original desert of the Shaliu Empire in the Western Continent have also been mined to an extent.

 The consumption of long-term combat has not only exhausted our metal resources, but also sulfur, charcoal and other resources have become scarce. To replenish charcoal, we need to cut down the forest resources on our territory. "

Qu Mao waved his hand and said: "Damn it! 2.7 trillion units of grain is not a small number, but it doesn't matter. I'll add it to you later..."

Xuande said: "Sir, you may not be able to replenish supplies directly at the lord's hut, because transporting supplies from the lord's hut's material warehouse will require a lot of manpower and material resources, as well as a lot of time."

Qu Mao reached out and touched his forehead and said: "The new military factory should step up production and continue to step up production. Tomorrow I will start an industrial inspection tour of the Holy Land of Yi Emperor and the Eastern Continent.

Taking the city as a unit, we will replenish industrial resources and food for the material warehouses and granaries in the towns. Contact Su Yan to arrange for the delivery of radiation materials from each town to the industrial park.

Wherever I inspect, I will replenish food and resources on the spot. Let’s take care of the immediate needs first. There is no room for any relaxation in the decisive battle in the Central Continent. "

Xuande nodded and said: "Yes, sir, I will accompany you for a walk."

Qu Mao nodded and said, "You can walk with me again. Let's set off early tomorrow morning."

Xinping said: "Sir, please feel free to patrol. I will ask personnel from the Intelligence Department to follow up on your formation and report to you regularly on the decisive battles on the Central Continent."
