Chapter 303 (1/2)

Wei Ran didn't give up training because it was winter. Instead, he strengthened his training. However, in addition to using food to keep the soldiers warm, he had to find some ways to dress.

So they discussed with ah Li. According to their respective memories, they helped the Cheng family improve their textile machinery so that they could use wool to spin sweaters. This sweater was initially listed in winter. Even if it was just produced, it had many problems and was very rough, but it was still sought after and sold out of stock for a time.

Even Zhao Xuanqing spent a lot of money on purchasing. Even if she knew that the Cheng family was Li's in laws, she couldn't care so much. She knows too well how much equipment that can keep soldiers warm in winter can improve their combat effectiveness.

This forced Gu Qingshu to temporarily employ many people to urgently expand production capacity and carry out production and supply in double shifts day and night.

Of course, Wei Ran's dare to die camp has one for everyone, which is not delayed due to the problem of production capacity. This is the benefit brought by technology transfer. At the same time, it also makes the Cheng family's financial revenue, so as not to lose too much.

In late November, the snow fell like goose feather. In a few days, the snow was so deep that the war horse could not run. The troops of Tubo and Hexi Jiedu envoys were completely dormant, and even scouts were no longer sent.

Wei Ran knew from a Li that Zhao Xuanqing intended to enter kuozhou and take kuozhou city when the snow melted in the spring.

Kuozhou is the border state between the Tang Dynasty and the former Tuyuhun, which is now the logistics camp of Tubo.

Now that Tubo has captured kuozhou, they can send troops to attack Hezhou at any time. If Hezhou once, they can drive straight into Lanzhou, which is now the rear area of Wuwei army.

Once Lanzhou is lost, if the back road is broken, it will be a big defeat. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for Zhao Xuanqing to send troops across Jishi mountain to the north to help her father fight Shanzhou city.

Only by occupying kuozhou, an important transportation node, can we have a strategic support point to attack Shanzhou city from Lanzhou and kuozhou, and cut off the support between Shancheng and Shanzhou city.

Even if it is impossible to completely cut off the connection between the two cities, although it can not cut off its back road, it can also contain part of the Tibetan troops so that Zhao Hui can attack the city smoothly after the spring.

Although the overall strategy is correct, Wei Ran doesn't think much of the attack after the spring.

In his opinion, just when the Yellow River is frozen, entering kuozhou can play a surprising role. In the past, when Li Jing destroyed Xiao Liang and attacked Turks, he suddenly rushed to the enemy's base camp in the bad weather and conquered the first World War!

Moreover, not long after Tubo won Shanzhou, the local resistance forces in Shanzhou have not been eliminated. The Tubo had to deal with the attack of the Wuwei army, and they couldn't deal with the resistance forces in the territory at ordinary times.

This winter, the two sides were forced to go on strike, which just gave Tubo enough time to settle the internal problems of the newly conquered territory. At the beginning of next spring, Tubo has long been stable. At that time, it will only be more difficult to win Tubo.

Wei Ran considered how to make his own suggestions, so as to persuade Zhao Xuanqing to find an appropriate opportunity to march to kuozhou in winter.

When he was planning to do so, at the end of November, Zhuo Lancang, the leader of Qixia sword sect, came to Hezhou City.

Her arrival greatly increased the righteous forces in Hezhou City. Wu Xinfei didn't want to be unhappy. She took the snow north to Lanzhou, but went to her master.

Somehow, Kongtong leader Chang Xuanyi also left Hezhou City in winter. According to him, he wanted to take advantage of winter to inquire about Tubo people in Hehuang area. Only two elder Kongtong sect elders are left here.

Wei Ran thought that a Li said that Zhuo Lancang seemed to have an old relationship with the blood River venerable. He wanted to play a big bellied monk to test it while there was no big deal during this period.

Just these days, two Kongtong sect elders always like to go to the hotel to warm some hot wine after dealing with the things given to them by the Wuwei army.

He thought that Xuehe venerable had a feud with Kongtong sect, so he wanted to play with them in the hotel to arouse Zhuo Lancang's idea, and then try to meet this person and beat around the past of Xuehe venerable.

So he found a dark place, exercised his bone shrinking skill, changed into the shape of Xuehe venerable again, changed his cassock, and walked into the restaurant carelessly.
