When the emperor traveled, officials from the Imperial Office must accompany him. In two days, Yang Meng also listened to the characteristics of some Chinese-style buildings from the Imperial Office officials.

I have to say that the timing of Yang Meng asking about this is very suitable. There is a big conflict between Chinese architecture and Yang Meng's concept, that is, the consumption of wood.

Whether it is a brick and stone structure or a brick and wood structure, Chinese-style buildings consume a lot of wood, and Yang Meng also wants to build some new residential areas across the country, and the huge wood consumption poses a great threat to the environment.

Plants and forests are different from mineral stones. Although the mining of mineral stones is quite a bit difficult, they are still not as good as forest damage. When I first arrived in Yunnan, a large number of fertile fields were destroyed by mountain torrents. One of the reasons is soil erosion. Isn’t the main reason for soil erosion?

When building a large number of houses, there is too much demand for wood. The soil for burning bricks and tiles can be solved by dredging, but the wood comes from tree forests, which is not easy to solve.

In two days, the only practical thing that Yang Meng did was to propose a reinforced concrete structure, cement prefabricated floor slabs, columns and beams. Minghu did some of these things, and combined with the power of the construction office, perhaps it could make achievements in the short term.

Architecture is a good thing accumulated by China for 5,000 years. It has its advantages and disadvantages. Looking at the later generations, there are not many serious Chinese-style buildings. This is the so-called cultural invasion and total westernization. This is not a benefit.

After a two-day tour in Rehe Palace, Yang Meng also saw the depth of the combination of architecture and Confucian culture. He inherited the things from his ancestors, in addition to blood, there is also culture. In the future, there are Chinese architectures all over the world. It may be a successor to the glory of his ancestors!

Armed aggression is simple and rough. With the development of firearms and the opening of people's wisdom, this kind of aggressive aggression method will be gradually abandoned. The question-and-anticipated aggression by foreign religions is the best way of assimilation. In this regard, Confucianism is undoubtedly a bit of failure.

From architectural-level culture, culture and the inheritance of a country, Yang Meng seemed to be inactive in the past two days. However, he also understood some truths through the combination of Confucianism and architecture. The Confucius Group he established in Yunnan should be useful. An idea from that year has now reached the advantage of the favorable weapon to invest in the cultural battlefield.

Cultural invasion seems unstoppable, but the conditions that truly determine whether culture can be accepted by the world are extremely powerful national strength. Without national strength to support it, no matter how good the culture is, it is inappropriate.

With strong national strength as support, even if this kind of cultural disadvantages are many, it will gradually be popularized and corrected.

Now it seems that if you want to turn cultural invasion from a small path to a big path, whether the national strength is strong or not is a critical factor. When it comes to national strength and the Qing Dynasty's national strength, we have to talk about Tsarist Russia. It seems that Tsarist Russia is difficult to get around this level. If you don't knock down Tsarist Russia, the future country will encounter a powerful enemy on land.

Only when the local area is stable can you get involved in the world. You must first settle the country when fighting foreign countries. This is very good to use at this time!

In two days, Yang Meng's determination to knock down Tsarist Russia was even stronger. The northern resources were very rich. With the resource support of Tsarist Russia's northern territory, it would not be impossible even if it is an enemy of the world. In the next few decades, resources will be king!

Yang Meng, who returned to the palace hall, still had a calm expression on his face, but the Mongolian kings in the hall had many desire expressions on their faces. Under the threat of powerful force, they accepted the status quo. If Mongolia wants to develop and keep its own things, it is necessary to participate in the war.

What Yang Meng wants is their desires. Only with demand can they have motivation. Without motivation to do things, it is difficult to last. The war with Tsarist Russia will last for a long time. In the future, the new country established by the Mongolian kings will be the barren land in the north. Tsarist Russia may not pay too much attention to the barren land in the north, but they cannot give up the place where they are in their hearts. It is wrong not for the fall of the Tsarist.

"Have you thought about it?"

"Mr., when will Mongolia send troops?"

"Oh...you can send troops after you go back!"

The one who spoke was still Turkish Khan. After hearing the news of sending troops immediately, Turkish Khan had no joy on his face, but was more worried.

"Turgut Khan, do you have any difficulties?"

Seeing the difficult look on Turgut Khan's face, Yang Meng also frowned. Could it be that he had ignored something?

"Mr., although it is midsummer now, it takes a long time to recruit troops and train troops. When Mongolia sends troops, it is probably winter is coming. The winter in the north is very cold, and it is impossible to use troops in winter.

If you fight against the sky, no matter how many military horses there are, you will not be your opponent!"

Mongolia is already a cold place. The imperial court asked Mongolia to send troops in the middle of winter. This is not good news. Is it a guise to attack Tsarist Russia, and is it the imperial court going to deal with Mongolia?

"Man conquers nature! There is no way to fight in winter in Mongolia?"

When Yang Meng heard the explanation of Turgut Khan, he also became much clearer in his heart. In the winter of Mongolia, the temperature is probably minus 30 to 40 degrees Celsius. Not to mention people, horses can be frozen to death. It is indeed very difficult to start a war in winter.

But for Tsarist Russia, Yang Meng did not want to give them any respite. Even in the middle of winter, the pressure on Tsarist Russia in the northwest and north cannot be reduced by a minute. This will lead to the drag down Tsarist Russia in a short period of time, otherwise it would only be half a year to fight a war in a year, and it would not be able to defeat Tsarist Russia in ten or twenty years.

"No! Mongolia in winter is looking for a sheltered cat, Donger. It is lit up in the wind and snow. Even in the tent that has a brazier, it will be frozen to death!"

After hearing Yang Meng's question, Turgut Khan also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this Duke Zhenguo didn't understand the weather in Mongolia! Mongolia is so difficult to resist in winter. Going north and fighting in winter is a matter of seeking death!

"There are probably many difficulties! But winter combat is necessary, so we can find a way to solve it!"

"But……"

"There is nothing but good to say. You are also very clear about the strength of Tsarist Russia. After the war begins, we must not give Tsarist Russia any time to breathe. In order to seize the northern territory of Tsarist Russia, I have also done some homework. Now it seems that it is not very sufficient. Let's quickly think about it during this period, we must send troops to Tsarist Russia's north this winter!"

Yang Meng had thought of a way to do down jackets before and raised ducks in rivers and lakes in Jiangnan. Yang Meng had told him before that clothes were not enough. Combined with his understanding of architecture these two days, Yang Meng thought of radiators and floor heating.

These things can be learned from and modified. The northern forests of Tsarist Russia mean that there is no shortage of heating materials. With clothes and heating methods, it is not impossible to fight in rotation.

"Mr., we are in a hurry to send troops, and we can't stand it in the middle of winter..."

Turgut Khan is undoubtedly the mouthpiece of the Mongolian kings now. He plays like this and may ruin Yang Meng's major event. He dimmed his face and blocked Turgut Khan's explanation with a cold look. The next step is to solve the heating problem.

Yang Meng didn't want the Mongolian army to die of freezing on the frozen soil in the north without starting a war. Now it seems that it is time to gain wisdom from the people. Sometimes the local methods are of great use.

"Don't say much, you go back and organize the army, horses, guns and heating methods. I will give it to you in one or two months. If there is no way to resist the cold, I will not let Mongolia send troops easily!

Our purpose is the same, to let the Mongolian cavalry die in vain. The Qing Dynasty did not have such a big family business, so you just have to worry, leave dozens of people behind and follow the emperor's car to the three northeastern provinces. Perhaps, when I came back from the three northeastern provinces, I would have a way to resist the dead of winter.

Think about the Dayuan period back then! Now it is time to make achievements and restore the glory of our ancestors. This battle has become that you are all Genghis Khan of Mongolia!

Let's go! After meeting the emperor tomorrow, I will go back to reorganize the army. During this period of time, both inner and outer Mongolia will focus on the construction of grassland railways, and strive to build the railway to the junction between Outer Mongolia and Tsarist Russia when sending troops!"

When fighting against the outside world, Yang Meng was in great trouble. Although he had already had a backup plan, he still had to try whether these backup plans were useful.

When he returned to his residence, Yang Meng sorted out his ideas. Cotton coats and trousers are still OK in the north, but they can't be in the far north. Boots Mongolia and the three eastern provinces have ready-made felt boots. Yang Meng doesn't have to bother with this. Now what Yang Meng wants to do is down clothes and trousers, and heating facilities that can ensure the temperature in the house.

Regarding the cold winter in Mongolia, Yang Meng also heard something from the entourages of the Mongolian kings. In the middle of winter, when facing wind and snow, even when a brazier is created in a tent, the chest is hot and the back is cool. If you go to bed, you are very likely to be frozen to death. The heating facilities that can surround the barracks and houses are essential for military use in winter.

With targetedness, things will be much easier. The Qing Dynasty has a lot of resources and there should be a solution to heating facilities. The rest is Yang Meng's down jacket. Even if this thing is thick, it is much lighter than a cotton coat. There is no fabric that can protect the wind. It is enough to add a layer of sheepskin on the outside, and a rubber-coated rainproof cloth should be OK.

"Come here, send a message to Ding Taichen from Guangzhou, asking him to prepare all the things on the paper within a month. I'm waiting for his troops to arrive in the three northeastern provinces!"

Yang Meng gave a rough solution. The next step depends on the efficiency of the Yang family. If these problems can be solved within one month, then they can march from the north to Tsarist Russia. If they cannot, the war in the northwest will also stop.

In a few months, it is almost impossible to capture the northern territory of Tsarist Russia. No matter how good it is in summer, it has to retreat in winter. It would be meaningless if this battle is not fought. (To be continued)
