左宗棠收复新疆过程中的军粮采运

On the Procurement and Transportation of Military Food during the Period of Recovering Xinjiang

在收复新疆的过程中,左宗棠在军粮采买、运输、管理等后勤保障方面取得了一定的成绩,发挥了很大的作用,但是由于采买费用的缺乏,粮食采运后大都集中存储在巴里坤、哈密等战略后方,导致前线军粮补给的严重不足。西征军粮运费积欠对西征军粮运输的制约很大,如果没有运办事费用的局限,收复新疆的进程将更加迅速。

While recovering Xinjiang, Zuo Zongtang took a series of measures in procuring, transporting and managing the military food, which contributed a great deal to his success. For lack of fund, most of the procurement were stored in Barkol and Hami, which caused severely insufficient supplies in the forefront. This paper analyzes why Zuo Zongtang＇s army lacked sufficient fund for trans- porting necessary supplies and the effect it had on westward transportation of military food.
