Just when Liu Juntao drew up the drill manual and combat manual of the Yushan Guard, Liu Zian rushed back with bad news.

"This Kong Sancai is really not simple!"

Liu Juntao said with emotion: "That Kong Sancai sent people to communicate with the magistrate of Dong'e County constantly, it is definitely not as simple as courtesy, it must be for our Yushan gathering!" ”

Liu Zi'an also nodded, his expression was very solemn, and said: "Mr. Lian, that Kong Sancai has always acted and acted insidiously, and he will never fight to the death with open fire like the Chen family, but will stab the knife in the back first, and can use yin tricks to deal with opponents, and will never do it face-to-face!" So, we have to be careful! ”

After listening to Liu Zi'an's words, Liu Juntao's heart also sank, and he said secretly: "As the saying goes: open guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to defend!" If Kong Sancai is really ready to deal with me through the magistrate of Dong'e County, it will be more tricky! ”

Thinking of this, Liu Juntao said to Liu Zi'an: "This matter must be taken seriously, I don't care what method you use, you must find out the real purpose of Kong Sancai's housekeeper to Dong'e County!" And, it has to be as soon as possible! ”

Liu Zi'an looked at Liu Juntao with a serious expression, nodded heavily, and said; "Don't worry, I will personally take someone to Dong'e County!"

"And! Ningyang County in the south is also going to be stared at to death, Kong Sancai will most likely not hang himself on a tree, to prevent him from dealing with us in a two-pronged manner, as long as the Kong family has a big move, I will know in the shortest possible time! ”

Liu Zi'an said: "Lian always rest assured! ”

After speaking, Liu Zi'an didn't care about going home to rest, so he stepped directly on his mount and whipped away.

After sending Liu Zi'an away, Liu Juntao's good mood just now instantly dissipated a lot. Not long after the Chen family was killed by the Yushan Guards, the Kong family was like a big mountain, and it weighed heavily on Liu Juntao's heart.

"Alas! Originally, I wanted to find a time to go to the quilt factory to see Mu Ying and take her to a spring outing, but now it seems that I don't have this time and I don't have this mood! ”

Liu Juntao laughed at himself in his heart, so he handed over two personal guards, sent the drill manual and combat manual he had written to the escort camp first, and ordered Gao Ran to immediately find someone to copy and print it, and distribute it to the guard sentry commander level as soon as possible, and be sure to make sure that the generals above the sentry commander have a copy!

After that, Liu Juntao came to the War Bureau.

At this time, the relocation of the Yushan salt pond, the construction of the surrounding farms, and the diversion of thousands of stove households have begun simultaneously.

Zhang Baigui was not idle here, and the War Bureau had begun to pack and prepare the stored raw materials such as iron and various tools in different categories under the condition of maintaining no suspension of work.

Faced with a myriad of relocation work, Zhang Baigui has not returned home for more than ten days and has been living in the military war bureau.

When Liu Juntao saw Zhang Baigui, he saw that his beard was already very long, and he looked very haggard.

"Master Zhang, go home and rest for a few days, you must pay attention to your body!"

Liu Juntao said with concern.

Although Zhang Baigui looked very tired, he was in a good mood, and when he saw Liu Juntao coming, he said with a smile: "It's okay!" Jun Tao, I won't tell you, as long as our military battle bureau grows stronger and stronger, as long as I see the black and shiny orthodox nine-year-old bird gun, my heart will bloom, and I won't feel tired no matter what I do! ”

"Haha!"

Liu Juntao also laughed when he heard this, and asked: "Since Master Zhang is full of energy, then our military battle bureau must have achieved a lot of results during this time!" Now in the warehouse of our War Bureau, how many orthodox nine-year-old bird guns are stored? ”

"No more, no less, two hundred!"

Zhang Baigui paused, and then continued: "In addition, the Gunpowder Workshop of the War Bureau has also produced 30,000 rounds of customized paper shell bullets!" ”

Liu Juntao suddenly perked up when he heard this, and excitedly took Zhang Baigui's hand and said, "Great! Two hundred bird guns, you can almost equip a total young man! ”

Zhang Baigui laughed and said; "The output of the War Bureau is still a little worse, our escort team counts the newly recruited Qingzhuang and the Chen family prisoners, and now there are six or seven thousand people and horses, and the output of orthodox nine-year-old bird guns is still too low!"

"Take your time! The city of Beijing was not built in a day, and the fire guns could not be assembled in three or two days! ”

Then, Liu Juntao asked: "How many new hydraulic lathes and animal powered lathes are there?" ”

"There are thirty hydro-powered lathes and twenty animal-powered lathes!"

Zhang Baigui said with a smile: "I don't think it's enough, so I placed another batch of orders with Tang Yu, ordering fifty hydraulic lathes and thirty animal-powered lathes!" ”

Liu Juntao was also stunned at this time, but he didn't expect Zhang Baigui's appetite to be even bigger than himself!

Liu Juntao roughly calculated, if all the lathes ordered by Zhang Baigui were in place, there would be absolutely no problem for the War Bureau to produce 500 orthodox nine-year-old bird guns a month, and if the raw materials and labor were enough, the output of the War Bureau would be even more than he expected!

At this time, Liu Juntao was completely relieved, accompanied by Zhang Baigui, he looked around in the war bureau again, and left satisfied.

After walking out of the military battle, Liu Juntao came to the escort camp.

As soon as he entered the gate, Liu Juntao saw that Gao Ran was directing his young men to carry the mountains of "fire guns".

These are not the real orthodox nine-year-old bird guns, but Liu Juntao's practice guns that Liu Juntao ordered to find a carpenter to "rush to make" before the retreat.

At this time, Gao Ran saw Liu Juntao coming, so he strode over and said, "Mr. Lian, I have already arranged for someone to copy the two manuals you just sent, and I will send someone to invite the printing master early tomorrow morning!" ”

"Good!"

Liu Juntao asked, "Did all the people I asked you to find come?" ”

"It's all here!"

It turned out that before Liu Juntao's retreat, in addition to arranging for a carpenter to make wooden firecrackers with bayonets, he also asked Gao Ran to find fifty instructors to wait for his orders at any time.

Liu Juntao knew very well that the use of firearms to combat was completely different from the use of broadswords and spears, and the Yushan Guards not only had to learn how to use the orthodox nine-year-old bird guns, but also had to practice new queues, new tactics, and even bayonet techniques!

Therefore, Liu Juntao was ready to hand over all these things that needed to be learned to the fifty instructors selected by Gao Ran, and then let these fifty instructors train the young and strong guards of each department.

This is also the beginning of Liu Juntao's plan to rebuild the escort team!

Under the leadership of Gao Ran, Liu Juntao came to the training ground of the escort camp, and at this time, the fifty selected instructors had been waiting in line for a long time.

Gao Ran took a wooden bird gun and handed it to Liu Juntao, Liu Juntao took a closer look, and saw that this wooden bird gun was very expressive, and even the bird gun's lookout, trigger, fire door, and bayonet were carved very finely.

"Brothers! This is the weapon that our escort team is about to rewear: the orthodox nine-year-old bird gun! It will be the magic weapon of my Yushan Collector's Guard! ”

Liu Juntao raised the wooden bird gun in his hand high and said loudly to the fifty instructors: "This bird gun can kill the enemy in a volley from afar, so that the enemy cannot get close, and the power is amazing!" Close to the bayonet can break the enemy, as sharp as a spear! ”

As he spoke, Liu Juntao suddenly stabbed with a spear, and used the signature action of the bayonet technique, and the long wooden bird gun stabbed forward like a spear, making everyone's hearts skip a beat.

"Today, I'll give you bayonet skills!"
