Chapter five hundred fundamental
Cheng Xuan, who had planned to be promoted to the Jianghuai Transportation Commissioner, did not break his promise after returning. With the launch of a new round of offensive on Huai, it was like loading ships from sea to sea in a synchronous manner, and the daily use of military and Zibo was delivered one after another. Soon, the port city of Haizhou to the warehouse along Zaiyidu became fuller again.
Therefore, as spring flowers bloom, the gradually relaxed rationing and control have also made the pale and bleak face of the population under the rule become a little vivid and vivid.
Although the restrictions on population mobility have not been relaxed under the military control, some morning markets, small and wild cities in the suburbs and intersections have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, slowly emerged.
A heavy and inflated armed storm is underway, but I am inspecting the preparations for spring farming in various places, as well as the restored mining and smelting and newly established workshops.
In the past few days alone, I visited three cities, including Yidu in Qingzhou to Linyi in Yizhou, and inspected at least five large labor camps and industrial and mining areas.
As the saying goes, if the army has no food, it will be chaotic, and if the people have no food, it will be scattered. The issue of food security is still one of the fundamental national policies that is highly valued in the subsequent governments of all dynasties and even highly modernized.
Although we have occupied such a territory, we have not yet formed the corresponding grain self-sustaining capacity and can only temporarily pass through sea transportation and supply.
Jiangningxing's generosity and generosity to me is always time limit and final standard, and is not a normal state that can continue to be maintained.
In the long run, what Jiangning Travel can provide us is at most only the required part of the listed military quota. As for the consumption of the population under the rule, it can be said that it has been in a negative growth state of being in a state of scattered life.
Therefore, whether it is a long-term plan for our own security and stability, we urgently need to promote military farming on site to achieve a sufficient scale of food self-sufficiency within the year, which is the development plan for long-term stability.
Fortunately, although the places I ruled now are in decline, after years of droughts and famines, chaos and wars in the north, whether near cities, on both sides of the road, or even remote mountain villages, there are large areas of unlimited landmarks, and they can be occupied by directly inserting corresponding landmarks, and then arranged to move in for collective development and settlement.
The population originally under the organization and management of this army, after a winter project, can be converted into labor required for agricultural production in a nearby area according to the battalion system.
With the support expected from the rear, seeds, agricultural tools and even animal power are no longer a problem. Therefore, the preparations in various places are still unsatisfactory. As long as you wait for the right solar term, you can start comprehensive agricultural production.
Now responsible for this matter is Yu Yunwen, the newly appointed permanent judge of the Yingtian field. Since he was exempted from the official position, he has shown a considerable degree of Yu Jing and diligence.
He even took people deep into the fields or stayed in the camp where labor was managed and labor was not seen for several days.
As the corresponding government officials, Cai Yuanchang and Zhao Ding were among the new members. After the official status and authority was officially recognized, their staff members also rose.
Like Cai Yuanchang, he was already appointed as the governor of the vassal government, responsible for investigating the scattered fugitives and hidden land under his jurisdiction; Zhao Ding took office as a scattered servant, specializing in the land output of downhill mountains and zodiac fields, and was responsible for the survey and estimate of the number of corvee labor in prefectures and counties.
This is also the prototype of a three-horse carriage in some initially formed government affairs structure.
After the preliminary logistical support, the focus I considered was shifted to the military equipment and the initial local construction capabilities.
After all, I am a firearm-based unit, and to some extent, I rely more on logistical support and rear production capacity than other traditional armies. Before and after the Battle of Sizhou, after obtaining a large number of prisoners, the heavy labor tension required in the mine was effectively alleviated. In addition to not being easily killed, I can try my best to spur and use these relatively cheap labor.
The second is the local production capacity of military supplies such as clothing, shoes, socks, bedding, and blankets.
This is relatively simple. There are ready-made foundations and models in Guangzhou, which can be copied directly. Because the technical content is relatively low and the manual part accounts for a considerable proportion, as long as some old technicians lead, they can gradually master it.
Everything is still based on military affairs first. Then there are various localized engineering projects. However, under my rule, there is no eight-hour working system and corresponding labor protection system. If you are unfortunately born, old, sick and dead, there will be a burning place.
As a preliminary stage necessary to complete the original accumulation, it cannot tolerate the excess of Virgin complex and humanitarian flooding.
As a population under the military organization, most people often have to get up all day long and work in the dark, and spend at least twelve hours or even more time. They are so tired that they have no intention of thinking about other things. They are just a little full compared to ordinary people who are still struggling in hunger and cold.
I thought so much, walked back and looked slowly, and the newly built ordnance factory in Linyi. Yishui has enough flow and drop to drive the wheel axle required by the hydraulic workshop, and is very close to the urban area.
Therefore, as the most conspicuous landmark here, it is the staggered and scattered on the river bank, with several tall wheels like large waterwheels, on the rustling water, with the rumbling and tingling sounds of the workshop day and night.
Except for the site and building, most of the equipment and materials are disassembled and shipped from the rear and copied as they are copied.
Therefore, although it is an ordnance construction site, its main functions are still relatively single and simple, mainly focusing on the daily maintenance and repair of armed weapons, as well as the manual production capacity of some small parts.
For example, using the water wheel transmission, the accumulated kinetic energy and repeated strokes to drill, drill holes, cast and cut, and polish some spearheads, arrows, swords, shield surfaces, and even large and small armor pieces are no longer a problem.
For the various types of muskets being used in the army, we can only provide basic assembly and calibration post-production. As for the main components such as pipe bodies and spring wheels, they must be prepared from the workshop behind and then transported from a distance from the sea to the sea.
I saw rows of tubes with metallic luster on the shelf. This is the thick blank of the barrel. It requires further horizontal drilling, carving, groove and other processing steps to be called the new accessories of the musket.
"Is this Fujian Tie..."
I picked up one and looked at the skylight carefully.
"It feels a bit heavy..."
"This is because Min iron has good toughness and hardness..."
The accompanying material lawsuit chief Kong Jiji explained to me in a timely manner
"It's a little worse than the Indian iron I used in the past..."
"It's just that the output is very large, and it's a little expensive..."
Because, in addition to standardized processes, new materials were also adopted. Compared with the most popular Guangzhou Iron, the iron produced in Fujian is more expensive, but the corresponding color and homogeneity are better.
It seems that because the Fujian subway material smelting process uses a lot of wood carbon instead of the most common coal, there are fewer magazines such as sulfide that affects metal toughness. In addition, the convenience of transport distance in Shanghai has temporarily become a new choice for us to grind and drill gun tubes.
However, compared to the relatively expensive Indian iron we used, it is one level lower, so in order to ensure the strength of repeated emission, the wall tube has to be kept thicker and the weight is heavier.
This is also impossible, because the longer the gun barrel is made, the higher the requirements for process and materials, but at least it can enter the level of small batch production.
In contrast, the processing technology materials requirements for those three-eyed guns, horn guns, etc. can be much lower, and even cast with cooked iron can be made up.
Now, the direct order of the Fifth Regiment and Two Teams under my name has also been greatly expanded in the name of the Six Prefectures' Fuya Army and the Commander Yu Houjun.
Among them, the Pro-Strait Regiment was expanded into two left and right regiments; the Model Regiment was expanded into a model barracks with a full member; the name of the teaching team remained unchanged, but it became a three-corps-based teaching team.
Zhang Xian's special chariot regiment also became a chariot regiment; Guo Yaoshi and Du Shulang's artillery regiments were also divided into three, and re-expanded into one heavy artillery regiment and two field artillery regiments; Zhao Liangsi's hunting cavalry battalion was expanded into the third battalion of the left, center and right;
The group of people who were responsible for detecting the Spurs' enemy detectives were also divided into two groups of people who were catching the Spurs.
Mainly, we received a large number of artillery and gunners from the navy, and seized a large number of livestock and mounts from the defeated Humafan Army. Therefore, from my direct battalion to the existing eight and a half main battle camps, we can initially realize the transformation of mules and horses.
However, the production and equipment of corresponding firearms are not so easy to keep up, and this is the only realistic situation that can restrict me from expanding my strength.
Therefore, I can only settle for the second best and instruct them to produce a batch of relatively simple and low-end firearms with low-end technology as a starting point and a transition.
The next day, accompanied by Zhu Wu, I checked out a few scattered corps exercises that he had trained again.
"This is?……"
I looked at the decent array in front of me in surprise. I actually made this variant for him.
"This is the right way to use a crossbow team and a shield array..."
Zhu Wu, the son of the Divine Machine, who seemed to have been reduced a little, explained to me.
He is now a consultant and trainer at the military advisor of the tutoring office.
"Specially for those scattered soldiers and auxiliary soldiers' orders..."
In the inventory of Xuzhou Shuaisi, tens of thousands of crossbow tools of various types were obtained, which were just used to arm these secondary military orders and continue to exert their residual heat. The shield formation was even simpler, and all kinds of big and small brands, and even the temporary reorganized arrow platoons of car boards were competent.
This kind of array is a defensive battle formation that emphasizes defense. Anyway, as long as they are able to stand on the ground for a period of time after they encounter an enemy, it will be enough to wait until it comes later. It will not be necessary to force offensiveness and mobility.
The Yushan Mountain area at the junction of Haizhou and Yizhou, Tianwu Castle among the undulating mountains,
This is also the last and largest in Haizhou. Wubao, which is occupied by local armed forces, also ushered in its final sound after a winter of resistance and persistence.
As their confidence, it is the dangerous terrain that goes up the gorge and is halfway up the hillside, and on the flat top of the back mountain surrounded by cliffs on three sides, it is full of water, large farmland, fruit forests, and a storage for half a year.
This also made the thousands of local armed forces entrenched here become local forces and benchmarks to resist foreign troops and resist to the end after changing their dominance.
At this time, the Qingzhou Guard and Challenge Army, who was responsible for suppressing bandits, also arrived at the foot of the mountain to set up a camp and cooperated with the troops responsible for monitoring.
In fact, such a winning streak made the old Liangshan subordinates who participated in the attack on this stronghold feel a little familiar, but the positions of both offensive and defensive sides were dropped.
Is there any more copycats on the land of the two rivers in Huaibei? They are both ups and downs and think so confidently.
For the few Liangshan old people in the upper class of the army, this is the first initial formation performance of the Liangshan tribe, which somewhat represents the claim and status judgment of this new collective. There is no allowance for any mistakes, and it also feels that it is too ugly to fight. It must be taken at a low price. It is justified.
Under Luo Piqiu's instructions, amid the rumbling cannon sound, the fire nest car and crossbow of the fire shells shot out from the whirlwind cannon, sweeping onto the wall of gravel-stacked gravel, kicking off a round of attack.
On the cliff behind the mountain, hundreds of people who are good at climbing in the old camp of Liangshan were wearing short clothes and holding short swords on their mouths, and their hands and feet were pressing against each other, grabbing the gaps with little bits of edges, moving like a gecko up the cliff.
Finally, in a sweat, he clamped several hooks between the rocks and the thick trees. Then more light-fitting and short-blade deaths followed these knotted ropes to make ladders and climbed to the edge of the flat top one by one.
The only loss was that several people were out of strength and fell. After reorganizing the team, they pulled up bows, arrows, swords and shields from the bottom of the cliff, they rushed to the hiding positions of the elderly, weak, women and children in the front mountain.
When the people in the fortress found that they were already attacked from both sides, shouting and fire from both sides, and saw groups of old, weak, women and children who were driven forward by swords and cried constantly.
The remaining fighting spirit and morale were like the melting ice and snow. After a brief period of noise and chaos, it turned into a stream of people who opened a village and begged for surrender.
"Sinner Li Xianzhong, beg for mercy"
