Chapter 214 Even the cook issued a set of armor and weapons
(Ninety-nine monthly tickets are here, who will break the hundred!)
In addition to seizing half a fleet in this battle, the other aspects of the seizure were also quite amazing. After breaking through the nest of the one-eyed dragon, more than 400,000 stones of grain, as well as tens of thousands of pieces of silk, cloth, silk, silk, satin, etc., the total value of more than 400,000 guan was seized. After Li Guan attacked Wuhu Island, he also gained a lot. He searched for about 100,000 guan of money and grain from Wuhu Fort and the property of the officers and soldiers. In addition, the "military expenses" that threatened the merchants to take out were also greatly won because of the great victory of Shamen Town. The merchants not only paid 10% but also paid more, which was also as high as nearly 200,000 guan. After calculation, all of them were worth more than 700,000 guan.
Huang Huzi also generously proposed his suggestion to share the spoils. In his words, they suffered minor losses this time, but their harvest was already very impressive. When they captured the one-eyed dragon nest, he had already taken the initiative to confiscate the 400,000 guan according to the war death and disability pension subsidy of 2.5 million guan. The brave performers in the battle were rewarded with 2.5 million guan. Then Zhendonghai and Shamen Town each had 2.5 million guan. The brothers under Zhendonghai had already divided 200,000, and they received another 100,000, so they no longer wanted the military expenses seized by Wuhu Island and the merchants.
In this way, Shamen Town received 100,000 yuan from the one-eyed dragon's seizure, and then added more than 300,000 yuan from Wuhu Island, and they received more than 400,000 yuan of money, grain and goods.
Of course, this is not all.
Duan Shan came forward with guilt and laughed at Li Yan: "General, when I was capturing the Iron Mountain Bidder's Cave, I made my own decision. Without receiving the rewards from my brothers, I replaced him with thirty war horses and fifty big green mules. I made my own decision. I also asked the general to punish him."
Li Yan is in a good mood now, and he doesn't care much about such a small matter. However, he still glared at Duan Shan, and the giant man with a tiger-back and waist on the special forces team was a little nervous. "This is also your own military achievements. How you arrange it is your own business. However, war horses are scarce military items. In this way, after you go back, you will leave behind twenty mules and twenty horses, and the remaining thirty mules and ten horses are considered requisitions for the town generals. But it is not in vain to ask for yours. Each mule is fifty stakes. One hundred stakes will be compensated for you."
When Duan Shan heard that he wanted to recruit half of the transfer, his face was full of pain: "General, we don't want money, why don't we give all thirty horses to us, how about we hand over thirty mules?"
Li Guan looked at Duan Shan and chuckled, "This way. If you hand over as I said, I will upgrade your special forces to special forces after going back. What do you think?"
"I want it, I want it." Duan Shan immediately smiled when he heard that Li Yan actually proposed to upgrade their team to capital, and even the treasured horses were not caring about. The team was promoted to capital, and he was promoted to two levels at once. From now on, he would become a lieutenant, so where would he find such a good thing?
Li Yan couldn't help but feel a little happy when he successfully used the organization of Yiduo to get ten horses and thirty mules. The special forces performed well in this battle, and he had the intention of expanding them.
"Money and grain are the foundation of raising soldiers, and it is important. But what is more important is the ordnance equipment. Although we have an ordnance workshop, our daily output is not high. Now we have to rely on the battlefield to supplement the acquisition. Li Zuoshi. Has the results been counted about the seizure of weapons, armor and other weapons in this battle?"
"The seizures have been counted out. In total, the weapons seized in the first battle of the Tieshan Nest were wiped out, the weapons seized in the first battle of the Tieshan Port, the weapons seized in the Wuhu Island, and the weapons captured by the remaining fleet of the Ming Dynasty."
Like Li Wei, Li Zuoshi is also of the same clan as Li Guan, but his seniority is one generation higher than Li Guan. He is Li Guan's uncle. He is nearly fifty years old and a little tall and thin. He originally served as a teacher in the primary school of the Li clan in Qingning Township. He had a good relationship with Li Guan's father. He studied and participated in the imperial examination together, but he was a fellow villager who did not enter. After expanding the army, Li Guan felt that his civil servants were insufficient, so he specially invited him to be Zuo Shi.
Li Zuoshi was very organized in his work and gradually took on a lot of burdens. He followed the army this time and was responsible for the Chinese language work. He flipped through the account books in his hand and said seriously: "The CCP has obtained more than 1,700 horizontal knives, more than 800 spears, more than 500 arrows, more than 500 shields, more than 200 iron helmets, more than 300 leather armor, more than 100 arms, more than 100 horn crossbows, eighteen bamboo pole crossbows, six guns, and more than 20,000 arrows."
"In the battle of Tieshan Port, in addition to the enemy ships seized, more than 2,600 horizontal swords, three thousand spears, two thousand long bows, one thousand three hundred crossbows, two thousand iron helmets, more than 1,600 sets of leather armor, more than 300 sets of leather shields, more than 1,000 square iron shields, three hundred square iron shields, thirty-eight heavy crossbows, twelve catapults carts, and 100,000 arrows."
"There were 800 horizontal knives, 1,200 spears, 600 long bows, 300 crossbows, 800 helmets, 100 iron armor, 500 leather armor, 500 leather shields, 100 iron shields, 48 heavy crossbows, 36 guns, and 200,000 arrows."
"The equipment handicapped by Feng Ming Disabled Fleet and Zhang Lie surrendered were 1,22 pairs of horizontal swords, spears, and bows, and another five hundred crossbows, one thousand two helmets, two hundred iron armor, and one thousand leather armor. Eight hundred leather shields, three hundred iron shields, eighteen heavy crossbows, six cannons, and fifty thousand arrows."
"Total, there are 6,500 horizontal knives, 6,200 spears, 4,300 bows, 2,33 light crossbows. 4,500 iron helmets, 600 sets of iron armor, 3,400 sets of leather armor, 2,300 sets of leather shields, and 700 large iron shields. There are also 122 heavy crossbows, 60 cannons, and 3,800 bows and arrows. In addition to these, there are also a few other weapons such as sticks, sticks, guns, whips, and maces. The number is too small to ignore."
Li Zuoshi finished reading it in one breath and closed the account book.
Although he had expected it, Li Guan was still very surprised when he heard such a large amount of weapons being seized. Feng Ming and the Pirate Fleet had nearly 5,000 equipment, plus the one-eyed dragon nest and the armory on Wuhu Island, which made them all hug them all at once.
The pirates seized not much of the military equipment, but Fengming was quite rich. At this time, it was still the late Tang Dynasty. As a relatively wealthy vassal state among the vassal states of the Tang Dynasty, the military equipment under it was also top-notch. At this time, it was not as good as the late Tang Dynasty after the Huang Chao Rebellion. At that time, the vassal states were in chaos and attacked each other. There were countless vassal states of all sizes. The situation was turbulent, natural disasters continued, wars continued, and the people were not busy. Therefore, at that time, the vassal states had difficulty in financial resources, soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and soldiers were all over the place of expansive soldiers who were forced to enlist in the army. Their weapons would be the simplest and cheapest. At this time, the equipment in the army was still excellent, especially a soldier not only equipped with melee horizontal swords, but also long-range swords, long-range bows and arrows, and even crossbows were also very equipped.
Feng Zhang has been guarding the prosperous marine trading road in Dengzhou for ten years, and has not been short of money and has not had any war for many years. His military equipment is also quite luxurious, with much richer assets than Li Guan, a Mud-legged general. At this moment, all these weapons fell into Li Guan's hands.
"These weapons are enough to arm three thousand men. Although some of them are a little damaged, they can still be used after repairing them." Li Zuoshi said with a smile.
Li Guan nodded. Indeed, after so many weapons were seized, not only could all the soldiers in Shamen Town have good weapons, but they could also have a large amount of warehouse storage. The horizontal sword and spear are now in stock. Now, so many have been seized. The military yard has no need to produce such weapons for a long time. More than 4,000 bows and more than 2,000 crossbows made Li Guan very happy. The production cycle of bows and crossbows was too long. It took almost three years for a complete bow to be completed. So many were seized in one go. Except for the auxiliary barracks that were not qualified for bows, all the troops could have a bow and even equipped a large number of crossbows.
Six hundred sets of iron armor, three thousand four hundred sets of leather armor, and so many armors made Li Guan wonder whether the auxiliary barracks should also be equipped with leather armor to increase their protection. And 122 heavy crossbows and 60 guns almost made Li Guan have a long-range heavy strike force at once. The reserve of nearly 400,000 arrows allowed the soldiers in Shamen Town to have one hundred arrows.
"If the Armory Shop was built, it would only be built in the Year of the Monkey and Horses in the Year of the Monkey and Horses." Li Guan sighed. There were really no guns or cannons, and the enemy would build it for us.
Huang Huzi generously expressed that he had given all the weapons to Li Guan. They had already added a large number of weapons to Li Guan in the last battle of Cat Island. They had just put them in the warehouse of the nest. It would be better to give them to Li Guan as a personal favor. Anyway, the two families have become close allies now, so there is no need to be clearly divided. With the current relationship between the two families, Li Guan felt that if his current power was not strong enough, he would not want to rashly pull Zhendonghai in. Otherwise, he felt that if he had spoken up to recruit Zhendonghai into Shamen Town and gave them a chance to whitewash them ashore, they would definitely be willing. Wait aside, he would not have been so eager to merge them before Shamen Town has the power to fully accommodate and control Zhendonghai.
After a while, Li Guan arranged: "All the seized weapons, money, grain and materials will be loaded immediately, and all the captured crossbows will be distributed. Everyone will carry bows and crossbows, and two pots of sixty arrows. The heavy crossbows and guns will be installed on the fighting ships and the sea falcon ships. In addition, all the soldiers who did not have armor will be distributed from the capture. We must arm everyone, even the chefs in the logistics industry, and each person will be given a leather armor and an iron helmet. Before returning to Shamen Town, everyone must cheer up and not slacken."
"General, are we going back to Shamen Town now?" Wang Chong asked.
