1322. Actively preparing for war

For a time, more than ten orders and holy decrees were sent out of the city in the Imperial City of the Great Song Dynasty one after another.

Zhao Dongting pondered again after Zhong Jian, Lu Xiufu and Su Liuyi left the imperial study, and then asked Li Goudan to announce Xu Yuesong, the secretary of the Ministry of Military Science and Technology, and the secretary of the Ministry of Military Industry, who had not yet left office, to the imperial study.

In the past few days, the Ministry of Military Industry has been stepping up the production, and after manufacturing the arms for the Western Xia, it has also begun to manufacture the arms for the major forbidden armies and the defenders.

Originally, this was not a haste in the first place.

Because only the Great Song Dynasty has arms in the whole world, Zhao Dongting has enough confidence to be invincible. It is not a big deal for the armies to buy arms later.

But now that the Yuan Dynasty has mastered the method of forging firearms, and it seems that it has been secretly forged a lot, then Zhao Dongting undoubtedly feels a little urgent.

In the future, if you confront the Yuan army, it will not only be a confrontation with the soldiers. In the case of both sides possessing firearms, firearms will inevitably have to be worn out.

And now there is no reserve of arms in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, which is of course not possible.

Imagine, if the soldiers in the front were exhausted of ammunition and food, but there was no ammunition or ammunition in the rear, what would the result be?

As soon as the two of them walked into the imperial study, Zhao Dongting directly told Xu Yuesong and the two of them about Western Xia and Tubo, and then said: "When the two armies clash, grain and grass are the top priority, and the same is true for soldiers. I don't know when the DPRK may start a full-scale war with the Yuan Dynasty, the two Aiqing, the Ministry of Military Science and Technology, and the Ministry of Military Industry The next task is very heavy! Over the years, the research of the Ministry of Military Science has made some progress, but I didn't think it was necessary to use it before, so I didn't let you forge the improved munitions. Now, with the two of you working together, forge the improved Divine Dragon Gun as fast as possible. Fifty percent of the weapons forged in the workshops in various places have been spared, and the other fifty percent is directly distributed to the forbidden armies and defenders until the whole army is fully equipped with firearms. ”

In the past, he didn't want firearms to overflow, so that the firearms of the major forbidden armies of the Great Song Dynasty were always controlled and controlled. But now, Zhao Dongting undoubtedly can't care so much.

As long as the major forbidden armies remain loyal, then even if they have enough firearms, they will not cause any trouble. And if the major forbidden armies are still armed with knives and guns with guns, they may suffer a big loss in the face of the heavily armed Yuan army in the future.

Zhao Dongting really didn't know when the Yuan Dynasty got the firearms manufacturing process in his heart now. I don't know how much arms the Yuan Dynasty has now.

The only thing that is certain is that even if the whole army is not equipped with arms, it will not be far behind.

Because he put himself in his shoes, if he was real gold, he would never help Daxia without being fully prepared and show his minions to Da Song.

Because no one is stupid.

Zhao Dongting can imagine it with his ass, since Zhenjin dispatched Luotuo, he must already have the confidence not to be afraid of the Great Song Dynasty.

The current Yuan Dynasty must have the strength to compete with the Great Song Dynasty.

In this case, if the new types of munitions that have been improved by the Ministry of Military Science and Technology are not manufactured, then the Great Song Dynasty may never have the opportunity to forge these new types of munitions again.

Under Zhao Dongting, Xu Yuesong and the two quickly left the imperial study in a hurry.

Only Zhao Dongting was still frowning in the imperial study.

Although the Ministry of Military Industry has made improvements to munitions, due to the limitations of the technology of this era, the improvement of its power is not large.

It is unrealistic to use these improved arms alone to form a sufficient advantage over the Yuan army.

The only way to win is to develop more powerful weapons.

After that, Zhao Dongting just wrote a few more letters, announced Yi Shiyu, and asked him to send it out, and then took Li Goudan to the workshop of the Ministry of Military Science and Technology again.

Originally, he was not so anxious about studying artillery, but now, he felt a little imminent.

Perhaps the sooner the artillery appeared, the army would have suffered countless losses.

Only those technical difficulties, I don't know when they will be able to overcome.

A few days later.

From Changsha City, various documents and orders were successively transmitted to various military districts, defenders and yamen of various ministries.

The territory of the Great Song Dynasty is in full swing, which is far from being described by the undercurrent.

Those cities not far from Changsha City were the first to post notices to purchase grain from the people.

There were government officials and officials crowded at the gate of the city, and there were many defenders around.

Here they set up stalls for the purchase of grain, and gold, silver, copper plates, and silver bills were placed next to them. Stacks of boxes stacked on top of each other.

Some of the boxes had been opened, and the golden light shone brightly in the sunlight.

The people who carried the burdens lined up and exchanged grain and grass for their possessions one by one.

Many families have left only food for their own families.

This is not only because the price of grain purchased by the Great Song Dynasty is quite fair, but also because the people's hearts are towards the imperial court.

Although the people did not yet know that there might be a war coming, they still chose to spare no effort to help the imperial court.

Even some people did not even want gold or silver after bringing grain and grass to them. He also talked about many things that his family had been helped by the government and the army in the past.

Even the officials who procured the grain still stuffed their money into their hands.

An official said with a smile: "The people take food as the sky, and the country takes the people as the sky." The emperor has the will first, and we can't take advantage of you. ”

This has moved many people.

The emergence of such an emperor in the Great Song Dynasty is really a blessing for the people of the Great Song Dynasty.

And when these things gradually spread, more and more people from all over the country came to deliver food.

The gates of each city were crowded with people.

Shuzhong, Dali and other military regions have forbidden troops stationed in the city.

The workshops of the Ministry of Military Industry are also in full swing.

Many of the craftsmen were barearmed, sweating profusely even in such cold weather.

The Ministry of Military Industry has ordered workshops in various localities to rush to produce improved munitions as quickly as possible, and has also set up a system of rewards and punishments.

Whether these craftsmen are patriotic or for personal gain, they are unsurprisingly in full swing.

Chengdu Mansion in Shuzhong.

There are flying pigeons that land in Chengdu Mansion.

Then a sergeant hurriedly ran to the place where Zhang Guangbao usually worked in the military district with the letter.

This letter is naturally the holy decree of Zhao Dongting's seal.

After Zhang Guangbao saw the letter, he didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately passed down several military orders and went to the forbidden army in various parts of Shuzhong.

He actually knew about the movements of Tibet by now. only did not hesitate at all about Zhao Dongting's will.

Zhao Dongting's prestige in the army is too high, which even makes the generals of all armies have reached the point of blind obedience to him.

Zhang Guangbao didn't think about what would happen to the Tubo soldiers at all, he only knew that since the emperor asked him to lead the army to fight, there must be a way to deal with the Tubo soldiers.

For a time, the major forbidden armies in Shuzhong moved.

Since Zhang Guangbao asked Zheng Yihang and them to prepare for the expedition a few days ago, Zheng Yihang and these people have actually been a little eager to try.

After all, Da Song has also been stable for a while. Maybe those civil servants enjoy this situation very much, but Zheng Yihang, these generals, may not be adaptable.

They all followed Zhao Dongting's expedition, and they were used to the life of fighting on the battlefield, and they didn't fight for a long time, just like Wufu Xu didn't fight for a long time, and it was inevitable that they would have some itchy hands.

With Zhang Guangbao's military orders to the various armies, Zheng Yihang and Batong hurriedly led the army to converge towards Chengdu Mansion.

In the territory of Shuzhong, several major official roads can be seen as long as a dragon of forbidden troops marching.

There is countless grain and grass in the army.

Flags fly.

When the people passing by saw this scene, they were all on the side of the road, and there was inevitably a look of surprise and confusion in their eyes.

However, no one showed panic on their faces.

It seemed as if they weren't worried about fighting again. This is really because they have full confidence in the imperial court and the forbidden army.

The invincibility of the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty in recent years not only made the Central Plains countries frightened, but also made the people in the Great Song Dynasty have unparalleled trust in them.

With the presence of the forbidden army, the people will not suffer.

With the presence of the forbidden army, no matter how many enemy troops there are, they will be annihilated.

With the forbidden army, the Great Song Dynasty is invincible.

This kind of thinking has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
