Chapter 13 Rong Oyster's Suggestion
As in previous lives, time is always inadvertently passing by around people.
Ji Kang also inadvertently ushered in the fourth year after coming to Liaodi, and the ninth year of King Wucheng arrived.
In the first month of the ninth year of King Wucheng, Ji Kang's maternal grandmother Zhao Weihou was sick because of poor health. returned power to Ji Kang's uncle Zhao Wangdan and was no longer regent. After the news reached Liaodi, his mother Ji Zhao was extremely sad.
Just after the Spring Festival, Ji Kang and Jun Xiang Juxin were in the secretary pavilion of the Junhou Mansion, listening to some of the views and propositions of General Rong Yan on the army's weapons and training.
There are many types of weapons, mainly bows, crossbows, guns, knives, swords, spears, shields, axes, halberds, yellows, maces, Laos, sticks, forks, and rakes.
These are weapons that are heavily equipped and used by the armies of various countries. But the most important weapons used are swords, spears, halberds, bows, and crossbows.
However, according to the experience of a certain general in actual combat for so many years, there are many problems caused by the mixed weapons used by the soldiers. First, it is inconvenient to command on the battlefield; The second is that it is not practical. ”
After hearing this, Ji Kang said to Rong Yan: "According to the general's words, starting from the actual situation of our army, how should the army of our Liao land be equipped with the weapons of our army?" ”
"Childe, a certain general also often talks with the soldiers, and has also discussed with many generals in my Liao. At present, the equipment of our Liaodi cavalry unit can be said to be extremely practical, and even the bows and crossbows equipped with them are also the most advanced and labor-saving, and this does not need to be changed.
But the regular army and the first batch of 100,000 reserve militia, weapons and armor should be synchronized, and there should be swords and shields, red tasseled spears, and crossbowmen with knives and bows, and these soldiers can carry two or three more steel javelins.
In this way, on the one hand, it can make the soldiers simple and fast in their usual training; On the other hand, on the battlefield, it is also easy to form extremely strong organizational and coordination capabilities.
Coupled with the use of new catapults in Liaodi, even on the frontal battlefield, it can form far, medium and near coverage.
Because my Liaodi is now so sophisticated and lightweight, judging from the analysis of a certain general, it has long been far superior to other Central Plains countries. In addition, according to Childe, I also have the ability to equip weapons and armor on a large scale. The messy weapons of the armies of other countries, such as those of other countries, can be discarded completely.
As for the second batch of more than 200,000 reserve militiamen, they can use the equipment that has been eliminated by the previous army, and they can slowly replace it when they have the financial resources. ”
When Rong Yan said this, he looked at Ji Kang and Ju Xin's opinions that he had no objections, and then said: "Childe, drama, in this way, my army can form a truly strong army in the shortest possible time, so that I will not be afraid of the challenge of any country around my Liaodi." ”
After pondering for a while, Rong Yan said to Ji Kang and Ju Xin again: "Son, drama, there is one more thing to say today, the Ministry of Industry asked the people to buy farm tools made of the latest materials. Childe, drama, this must be strictly controlled! When these farming tools are in the hands of other countries, they become the best weapons! ”
Ji Kang was stunned for a moment, remembering that when the official of the Ministry of Industry reported to Japan the day before, he said that the current output of the Anshan Iron and Steel Plant was enough to equip the troops, and there were many riches, so he suggested building farm tools. I didn't think it through at the time, so I agreed to this matter, but there will indeed be the problem that Rong Yan said.
Ji Kang glanced at Rong Xin appreciatively, turned his head, and looked at Ji Xin.
Ji Xin also nodded and said, "Childe, General Rong's concern does exist. The farm tool factory did create a lot of farm tools, but at present, they are mainly used in various industrial zones and have not been distributed to the people.
The Prime Minister's Mansion can issue another decree, ordering the people to take proper care of these agricultural tools when they use them, and if they are lost, they can report to the government for investigation and handling.
In addition, in the place where the head of the farm tool is not easy to be damaged, let the farm tool factory make a steel seal, and the government can also register it when it is issued or distributed to the farmers, and the responsibility can be transferred to the township, li and village. This can not only prevent the outflow of new steel, but also benefit the people, killing two birds with one stone. ”
Ji Kang nodded and said to Rong Yan: "General, the drama minister suggested this, are you satisfied?" ”
Rong Yan hurriedly stood up and said: "Thank you for the support of Gongzi and the drama, I am very satisfied." ”
Ji Kang immediately said to the drama: "Drama, after more than two years of our coming to Liaodi, now my Liaodi has become the largest producer of salt, grain, cloth and many other materials in Yan Country, and it can be said that we have initially gained a firm foothold. This year, I agree with you that large-scale renovation and construction of county towns and cities can be carried out. ”
After thinking about it, he said: "Now the renovation and construction projects of Xiangping City and Yangle City, these two county towns, have been basically completed. Each county town, just implement the plan taken out by Xiangping College! Garbage is swept away, latrines and bathhouses are built, and sewers are built.
In addition, all departments of the Prime Minister's Mansion should strengthen publicity so that people can form the habit of washing their hands neatly after using the toilet and before meals. The Ministry of Medicine and its subordinate units should strengthen management and supervision in this regard.
The city walls of the counties of the two counties of Liaodi only need to be reinforced with cement, and there is no need to build separately. The main street can be paved with cement like Xiangping and Yangle. However, cement is still a strategic material, and cement plants cannot be established outside the industrial zone, and the cement used in the counties can be transferred from the industrial zone. The cement formula should also be kept secret and can only be kept in the hands of a very small number of people. ”
Ji Xin stood up and said, "No."
Then he turned his head and said to Rong Yan: "On the other hand, the military department is now also organizing militia training on a large scale. General, you and the generals of the army should work hard and inspect more places. See what is inappropriate in the current practice, put forward suggestions for rectification as soon as possible, form regulations, and then implement them. ”
Rong Yan also hurriedly stood up and said, "No."
In the first month of the ninth year of King Wucheng, the Spring Festival has just passed. A new round of construction has begun in the entire Liaodi, and large-scale militia reserve training has also been carried out. The people of the entire Liaodi have started a busy year just like in previous years.
Now the two cities of Xiangping and Yangle in Liaodi, after more than two years of large-scale renovation and construction, the project has come to an end. Large-scale construction began in the other counties of the two counties.
In the past, there were no sewers in the city, and there was no place for dumping garbage. Households dump their garbage at their doorsteps or on the streets, causing the city to stink. On rainy days, sewage flows across the streets.
This made Ji Kang extremely worried, and a large-scale epidemic of disease broke out. Originally, it was emphasized, but it was not possible to allocate too much money and materials for large-scale city construction.
In the past two years, we can only choose to carry out engineering construction and transformation in Xiangping City and Yangle City, the county capitals of Liaodong and Liaoxi counties. The other twenty or thirty counties in the two counties of Liaodi were only tinkering and did not have large-scale construction.
This time, it happened to take advantage of the overproduction of cement factories in major industrial zones, and the financial situation of Liaodi was very good. After discussing with Juxin and others, he proposed this large-scale city renovation plan. also put the disease infection problem that Ji Kang was worried about together and solved it together.
The army and the reserve militia also organized large-scale training during the slack season. In particular, the first batch of 100,000 militiamen was already equipped with the same equipment as the 50,000 regular army troops.
Because the population has now reached nearly 1.5 million, the regular army of Liaodi has increased by 10,000, and now there are 50,000 regular troops in Liaodi. This year, depending on the population situation, it is planned to increase the number of people from the reserve by another 10,000 in October.
Not to mention the training of cavalry units. As for the infantry and reserve militias, there are now long-range catapult strikes, medium-range bow and crossbow coverage, short-range javelin throwing, and hand-to-hand combat training modes with knives and guns.
These improvements in technology and equipment have greatly shortened the training time of the army and the reserve militia, and have also quickly enabled the regular army and the reserve militia to form combat effectiveness.
The people of the entire Liao region have become accustomed to the fact that they are now living a busy life under the organization of the government all year round.
The so-called no comparison can not feel the beauty of life, Ji Kang deeply believes this.
Not to mention that compared with the countries of the Central Plains, that is, compared with the people of the counties of the Yan Kingdom, the life of the people of Liao is far more than that of the people of other counties.
The people of Liaodi are simple and easy to satisfy, as long as their lives are getting better day by day, what are these hardships!
At the same time, the mass recruitment of displaced people has not stopped.
Now Liaodi has offices in Yanguo and other counties, and recruits displaced people who are not wanted by various counties.
Even in the neighboring countries of Donghu, Goguryeo, Kei, Sanhan, Qi, Zhao, Korea, Xiongnu and other countries, they secretly did propaganda to encourage the displaced people to go to Liao.
