Chapter 317 Production Construction

Yang Pingfan stood on the colonel's field, looking at the soldiers lined up in a giant phalanx below, and had a little headache.

Zhang Xiaoming only threw him a copy of the "Militia Quick Manual" and ran away, Yang Pingfan could only follow the cat and draw the tiger, let the recruits practice running every day, walk in the queue, practice splitting stabs, and step on the school field for a few days like a road roller, but not only the officers below have opinions, even the soldiers are also talking about it, other famous generals are teaching various formations, what gossip array, one-word long snake formation, eight-wall golden lock formation, etc., this daily practice walking one-word formation, is really useful?

Yang Pingfan was entangled, Liu Kun walked over with a person, about the same age as Liu Kun, with a calm demeanor, clear eyes, and a frank temperament exuded from his whole body.

"Taishi, this is my best friend, is Fan Yang Zu, famous, the word Shizhi, for the life of open-minded, informal, light wealth and righteousness, generous and ambitious, often Zhou to help the poor, deeply respected by the township party clan, he became an adult to study hard, read books, dabbled in ancient and modern, people at the time called it a talent to praise the world, once served as the prince of the house, heard that the regent was thirsty for talent, came to defect, now want to put into the army, really play a meritorious career, the last general will dare to introduce to the Taishi here. ”

Yang Pingfan tried to suppress the surprise in his heart: "Smell the chicken and dance?"

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the two people suddenly became wonderful, "How did the Taishi know about this?"

Yang Pingfan snorted: "Haha, the two of you have the heart to serve the country, I still have heard of it, I have admired it for a long time, if there is chaos today, the court needs a brave and loyal person like you to serve the court." I happen to have an errand here, I wonder if Master Zu is interested?"

"What?"

"The chief instructor of the 50,000 forbidden army, after the training is completed, I will promote you as the pioneer officer of the Northern Expedition. ”

When Zu Ti heard the news, he was obviously stunned, but he quickly reacted, his face was happy, but he still pretended to excuse himself, "This, how can it be...... This is the ...... of the Grand Master"

Yang Pingfan smiled slightly, "No need to excuse yourself, it's you, this master still has a lot of things to do, and I really don't have time to do it, there is only one requirement for this master, you must teach according to the outline I gave you." ”

Yang Pingfan has no interest in dealing with officials of this era, let alone the big and small officers in the army and all kinds of trivial matters, throw this to Zu Li, and he will sneak out to find Li Lan, Zu Li opened the thick volume of the compendium, roughly browsed it, and was immediately dumbfounded.

"The new way of shooting is to hook the second joint of the thumb and make a fist with the first joint of the thumb with the index and middle fingers to make sure the bowstring is pulled apart.

Use your fist to clamp the end of the arrow to control the arrow, because the current bow, including the bow you use, is mostly a compound bow, and the power is relatively large, so the new shooting method must have a wrench to protect the thumb, otherwise you can't use a strong bow, and if you pull the bow with your bare hands without protection, the bowstring may cut your fingers.

I've seen how you shoot arrows, using four fingers other than your thumb to pull the bowstring and sandwich the arrow between your index and middle fingers. This technique can be used with bare hands, but if you are an archer or shoot more arrows, you will generally wear gloves or wrap sackcloth around your fingers to protect your fingers, which is normal, but the shape of the bow is too large, and it is very inconvenient to use on a horse, and the advantage is that it is simple to manufacture. ”

Shi Hu nodded, "I understand what adults mean, and the Huns in Bingzhou use compound bows, which are small and strong, a hundred steps away, not to mention our leather armor, even the iron armor of the Han army can shoot through, which is also the reason why we have fought with the Huns many times, and each time we have lost more and won less." ”

Li Donglai nodded and pointed behind him, "This is five thousand bows and crossbows transferred from the imperial court arsenal, and I have handed them over to you, I hope you can use them well to sweep away the traitors for the regent and wipe out the universe." ”

Shi Hu's face was almost like a chrysanthemum, "Thank you very much, Lord Captain, the Qiang people are the prince...... One of the regent's dogs will bite whoever it bites, and will never say half a word. ”

Li Donglai nodded, "By the way, the archery technique of the compound bow is different, like this, ......"

Li Donglai, as the captain of the bow and crossbow battalion, taught the Mongolian archery method after a thousand years to the camp under Shi Hu, the people were originally a nation on horseback, proficient in riding and archery, and had a foundation, and they learned it at once, Li Donglai left the camp and met Yang Pingfan head-on.

Yang Pingfan asked him why he came to the camp, Li Dong came and said that Zhang Xiaoming asked him to do it, Yang Pingfan's face changed, and he shouted at the quantum communicator in his sleeve, and Zhang Xiaoming soon rushed over.

"You're crazy, you actually helped them improve their combat power, and you want to repeat the things that the Karma people did in the original history?"

Zhang Xiaoming didn't have any worries, "It's just a cold weapon, we need him to deal with other Hu people, we always have to feed half full, not to mention bows and arrows, even if we give them crossbows, don't worry." ”

Zhang Xiaoming said with a smile, "Because this era will soon enter the era of heat and weapons." ”

He looked at the traversal pod on the side, his face full of confidence. Li Donglai has already led people to move their crossing cabin back, there is a mini industrial machine in the crossing cabin, the crossing group does not think that they have the ability to build an industrial system from scratch in ancient times, under Su Yu's prompting, they specially purchased an industrial machine at a high price in the benchmark era and brought it over.

In order to solve the problem of military salary, Zhang Xiaoming began the first step of cross-era construction, the construction of a glass factory.

China has had the technology of firing glass since ancient times, and people have found glass tubes, glass beads and other items in the ancient tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty, which shows that the ancients had begun to manufacture and use glass in the Western Zhou Dynasty.

Before the Northern and Southern Dynasties, people called the transparent matter burned by fire as "glaze", and the original material for making glaze was obtained from the by-products produced when the bronze was cast, and then made into glaze after refining and processing, and the colors of glaze were varied, and the ancients also called it "five-color stone".

In ancient times, because it was difficult for the people to make it, people at that time regarded colored glass as even more precious than jade.

Zhang Xiaoming's glass factory produces glass, adds a variety of toning products to it, and then gathers a group of masters in Shangfang, makes it into a variety of shapes, from daily dishes to bottles and cans, and then sells it to wealthy businessmen from all over the world. Knocking into a jade chime through the forest, suddenly making the sound of glass shattering. ”

Not inferior to the colorful colors and textures of the glass, as well as the appropriate pricing, so that the glass products of the glass factory were immediately welcomed by the families and wealthy merchants as soon as they appeared, and they were in a state of short supply, and quickly earned back a large amount of silver.

There is also Li Lan's pharmaceutical factory, the pill-based pharmaceutical method, which saves patients the trouble of boiling by themselves, and the sales volume also increased greatly for a while, and at the suggestion of Yang Pingfan, a special workshop was set up to specialize in the production of strong pills, big tonic pills, and Feng Yulu pills, waist strengthening pills, etc., which were exclusively for the consumption of the wealthy, and they were also in short supply, and the silver flowed into the treasury in an uproar.

With sufficient funds, Zhang Xiaoming invested in the construction of a gunpowder factory, and gunpowder did not begin to be used in the military until the end of the Tang Dynasty, and Zhang Xiaoming made it more than 500 years in advance.

Immediately afterwards, a number of other supporting factories were also established one after another, and at the end of two months, not only did they achieve a balance of financial revenue and expenditure of the small imperial court in Luoyang, but they could even take out a large amount of silver to mobilize a large amount of grain from Jianghuai to meet military needs.

Seeing that Sima Shu's small regime not only did not fall into a crisis, but was full of vitality, the big families couldn't sit still, and asked each other what kind of witchcraft Zhang Xiaoming was engaged in, they would not admit that the crossing group was an immortal, and they all called it a demon in private.

It's a pity that after inquiring for a few days, I can't tell why, these people are pampered, relying on the status of the family, monopolizing the position of the court, but they don't understand anything, they just talk about it all day long, light and utopian, not to mention figuring out science and technology, and they don't even know the content of their own positions.

I couldn't figure it out and was unwilling to give up, and under the entanglement, everyone pushed out Wang Dun, the most powerful family in the family, and led everyone into the palace to understand.

Sima Shu was very surprised to receive the report, since he was proclaimed regent, he had not passed the entire Guanzhong family to visit him.

Set up the guard of honor to greet, after a polite manner, Wang Dun went straight to the point, saying that Shangshu's glaze factory (in fact, it is a glass factory, in order to fool this gang of people, it is called the glaze factory) is making gold every day, but the household department has not received much silver, I don't know where the silver went.

Shi Lan, who was serving Sima Shu on the side, heard this, showed a look of disdain, and said in her heart that your family has more than one million, why don't you pay to help?

Sima Shu sat on the dragon chair, kneading two huge glass beads back and forth in his hand, and there were even two blooming peonies in the glass, and between the peonies was a lifelike swimming dragon.

This is a gift from the glaze factory opened by Zhang Xiaoming, so that Sima Shu can't put it down, there are more gadgets in his harem, exquisite, of course he knows that these things are worth a lot, but he also saw the folds of the Hubu Shangshu, the treasury did not increase because of this, and he was also very curious about where Zhang Xiaoming put the money.

The families made a noise, Sima Shu just played with them, and finally the families proposed to go to see Zhang Xiaoming's workshop, Sima Shu thought about it and said: "Lone and you go with you, see what Zhang Qing is doing, it's good to stop your suspicion." ”

The group went to the treasury in the north of the city, which is the lifeblood of Luoyang City, storing almost all the food, money, silver, weapons and armor.

Many cars arrived at the Luoyang Mansion, and Zhang Xiaoming, who was urging production in the workshop, had already spread the word and came out with a group of craftsmen to greet him.

Zhang Xiaoming had already gotten the news that a group of well-fed people wanted to trouble him, so he decided to give this group of people a dismount.
