No one in the Northern Liao Dynasty and the opposition did not expect that after the camp was set up in Zhongjun Town, the Dongping army would actually stop advancing. Before we knew it, several months had passed, winter had passed and spring had come.

The various armies led by the Blood Qi Army were luxuriously used the vast territory of Northern Liao for adaptive training, while the army in Dongping had become a traditional camp construction [31 Novel Network          Fast Update] The homework was also constantly improved with plenty of time and material investment. Zhongjun Town, an originally inconspicuous place, has now become a small city due to the stationing of large armies and the construction of a large number of barracks.

A simple road that was not wide and extended from Yunzhou was almost completed. Naturally, the main force of the road construction was the Northern Liao prisoners of war. But when these prisoners often enjoy better food than in the military camp, they felt that the only difference from the previous battle for their superiors was that the prisoners of war had no military pay, which they also found it strange.

Dongping did not think that the food standards they gave the prisoners were very high. The main reason was that Ye Tao felt that it was necessary to let the prisoners work hard and complete the road and other projects as soon as possible. In addition, these road projects were not organized by the official, but were contracted by several large construction groups. Ye's workshop was not included. Although Ye's workshop is now an organization with the highest standards in terms of architectural design, landscape design, construction, related supporting projects, and even property management in the world, it was not unhappy with projects with high profits like road construction. But after weighing the trade-offs, Suo Yong still thought that he would finish the Danyang Xindu project first.

This time, the construction banks that have solid experience in many roads and bridge engineering in Dongping over the years were originally expected to use a large number of employees and have detailed labor and social security clauses. At that time, I was considering the firm walls and clearing fields of the Northern Liao Dynasty, and it may not be possible to recruit them locally. Now, after a batch of prisoners of war, these prisoners of war were naturally rented to these construction banks for use at an extremely low price, and the garrison battalion system was responsible for the management. In this way, for the construction banks, Ye Tao did not require these construction banks to return part of the project funds, but only required that these prisoners of war be treated as "unified" people as much as possible. On the one hand, Ye Tao's most reasonable request, and on the other hand, the soldiers of the garrison battalion were staring at the side, which seemed difficult to do too much. The food standards given by these construction banks were about one-third of the ordinary combat troops in Dongping.

But even so, it is already incredible for these Northern Liao prisoners of war who usually sell tea and pancakes as soon as they enter the battlefield. Generally speaking, the food is always a rotation of rice, noodles, buns, pancakes, and fried noodles that are gradually becoming popular in Dongping. Each meal must have dishes and soup. Although it is not very rich, it cannot be compared with the food of the soldiers of the garrison battalion next to it, but what else can these prisoners of war require? Not only that, if there is a taboo due to allergic symptoms or religious beliefs, it will also be arranged separately. In northern Northern Liao, some people do not eat pork, and prisoners of war from this area are uniformly organized for meals. If they think it is delicious or not and dislike such food, it is purely a smoke, and even their own people will not help.

At the beginning, the Northern Liao prisoners of war were still trembling, but later, they gradually got used to this kind of generous treatment. Although the work was hard, they could still pluck the courage to talk to the soldiers in the garrison battalion who were guarding them. The soldiers in the garrison battalion were the best at dealing with people in all the army. In their daily tasks, the security patrols in the city were far more common than battlefield service. Listening to the soldiers in the garrison battalion, they said regretfully.

The Northern Liao soldiers were very sad when they were eliminated by the main battle camps. But even the most basic garrison battalion had a comprehensive training time of more than 450 hours a year. The equipment cost of each person from head to toe, even horses, etc. was more than 400 Yunzhou silver dollars, the salary for the new recruits was 120 silver dollars a year, and the training cost for one year was about 200 silver dollars. And the garrison battalion that came to Northern Liao to take on various battlefield duties, and even had a combat allowance of 15 silver dollars a month for each person.

These data made these prisoners of war in Northern Liao didn’t know what to say, but they could only be silent. Even the garrison battalion with the weakest combat power in Yunzhou, the equipment and the cost of supporting a soldier were enough to save a team of more than ten people in Northern Liao. The soldiers in Northern Liao did not have such a high salary, and many people even joined the army just for dinner, not to mention the exquisite armor mixed with leather and steel, the sharp sword made of steel, and various unified equipment including saddles, first aid kits, and even water bags. In many local troops in Northern Liao, each with a spear or an iron knife was good. When the prisoners of war learned that in Ye Tao’s guard camp, each weapon of each soldier was customized, and their full-body equipment was added up, not to mention anything else, the cost was two or three thousand.

Silver Yuan was completely silent. Many prisoners of war had faced the soldiers of the guard camp in front of the formation. They could only sigh and admit that those guys were worthy of such good things. Their slut was the ulterior motive of the invincible Xiaoqiang, and the murderous machine on the battlefield. These news in the army could best affect the prisoners of war who also made a living on the battlefield. When they felt the strength of the Dongping army, they would naturally no longer place themselves on the opposite side of Dongping. Once this mood changed, everything would be easy to say. In Ye Tao's view, this luxurious military construction was nothing more than two sentences "US military equipment, the will of the German army". Of course, this kind of words could only be said to Tan Weixin, and others did not understand what he was saying at all. However, the advantages of this elite military policy were fully demonstrated in this battle against Liao.

While building the road, the prisoners of war also saw that the land on both sides of the road was changing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The production that had originally stagnated was fully restored. After dredging rivers and canals in winter, leveling the land, planning planting plans, and planting fruit trees suitable for winter transplantation, in spring, large areas of land began to sow, and the tender green buds looked refreshing. In the fields, many newly built farms began to have vitality. Because the early solid walls and clearing of the fields of the Northern Liao Dynasty were really thorough, the population under the jurisdiction of the Western Road Army of the Northern Liao Dynasty, especially near Yunzhou, had already reached a certain level. Even if the first batch of immigrants from Dongping had arrived, they could only build these farms on both sides of the road and gradually develop the entire barren plain. I don’t know how many generations of efforts it will take.

At this time, the soldiers of the garrison battalion seized the opportunity to tell these prisoners of war that after serving two years of labor, they had the opportunity to apply for a piece of land for reclamation, or to go to the city to apply for a job to support themselves. In the future, after all, they would have to support themselves, and Dongping would not be able to manage their lives for the rest of their lives. After hearing such news, the prisoners of war became active, and they did not notice that the soldiers of the garrison battalion had already replaced the concept of prisoners of war with the management of food... and their yearning for a better life in the future was far more than their resentment for a life that was now captured and had no private property.

There are also different changes at both ends of this road built by prisoners of war. The fortress group, which was originally built to fight against the army under the Northern Xinjiang Jinglifu, is now regarded as large warehouses and material transfer points, and several classified markets for merchants of all sizes to conduct various transactions. Although entering the Northern Liao Dynasty does not mean that you can make money immediately, from the current situation, the prospects are very good. Those powerful merchants do not refuse to make part of the preliminary investment. In the fortress group, the most important building is the preparation office of the Northern Liao branch of the Communication Bureau, where a large amount of materials are stocked up, and batches of professionals are constantly traveling to and from the Northern Liao Dynasty and

Here, they established a preliminary wired telegraph network in the boundary they had already controlled. With the cooperation of the military, all the town-level units in the boundary they had occupied had preliminary airship mooring facilities. Compared with these construction results, Zhongjun Town, as the center of the attack on Bei Liao, seemed incredibly quiet. Ye Tao and Dai Yun, at least one of them would stay in Zhongjun Town, and everyone could see the training, preparation, barracks construction, etc. of the army. However, when will the next wave of attacks be? The merchants need some time to digest these achievements now, and they don’t care about this. The army has already received instructions and are all preparing for the next large-scale advance.

Preparation, and for confidentiality, they would not go around to publicize. The only thing that was worried about this was Gao Senqi and his tens of thousands of troops who were tense. They knew that they were not the professional troops in Dongping that could be transferred to attack at any time overnight. When they calmed down, many of the hundreds of thousands of troops returned to the place, or stationed in places with relatively abundant logistics supply. Gao Senqi directly controlled no more than 100,000 elite troops who could be invested in combat at any time. And these 100,000 people are now stationed in a town opposite to the control line of the Dongping army. Gao Senqi became a little moody, and Ye Tao did not play much conspiracy, but he saw that Dongping was making great contributions.
