Chapter 98: Upgrading Equipment
During the Jingkang period, when the Jin soldiers went south, he angrily denounced the surrender faction and wrote to Emperor Qinzong that he refused to cede land to the Jin people and pay compensation. Qinzong did not comply, and he angrily resigned. After entering and leaving the Jin camp many times, he was neither humble nor arrogant in front of Jin Wushu...... As for how he became bad later, the history books have been vague.
Song An wanted to know how a man who stood up to the sky and the earth had become a despicable and shameless villain step by step, so he wanted to let Qin Hui live, and he wanted to witness Qin Hui's transformation.
Of course, if it was possible, he hoped that he could pull Qin Hui out of the catastrophe.
……
Wang Qing's Chu army of Huaixi was 500,000 soldiers.
At present, the Liangshan army is only 100,000, plus the 70,000 Xiang army in Shandong, plus Su Taiwei, who is the supreme military commander of the Great Song Dynasty, has squeezed out 40,000 soldiers and horses from the 1.8 million forbidden army and the Xiang army that were deeply involved in the wars in Western Xia, Tubo, Li Dynasty in South Vietnam, Fangla, and the Southwest Fanmin Rebellion.
In this way, they only had 210,000 soldiers and horses in their hands, nearly 300,000 less than Wang Qing.
Now Wang Qing has inexplicably many paratroopers in his hands, and the Song army has no advantage at all, if he goes to fight Wang Qing at this time, it is basically equivalent to forming a group to send people to their heads.
After studying and discussing with his father and Uncle Zhang, Song An decided to recruit troops and horses at the same time in Liangshanbo, Shandong, and Lanling County, expand the overall number of soldiers and horses to about 500,000 as soon as possible, and step up military training.
At the same time, Song An also made a plan to clean up Wang Qing at the lowest cost.
The first step in the program was to upgrade the parachute battalion.
The battle resulted in the loss of 200 brothers, and now only 600 men remain in the parachute battalion.
Song An also selected 1,200 brothers from the Liangshan army who were good at wielding guns and swords, and distributed these 1,200 brothers to the 600 brothers of the original parachute battalion, teaching two for each of them, and within three months to reach the standard of more than 200 miles for a single flight, and to carry out aerial combat practice.
After the explanation, Song An went out of the city and came to the "Shuibo Liangshan Four Seasons Evergreen Vegetable Company".
Zhao Gou, with the assistance of Qian Rong, was watching the hundred farmers he had recruited to dig pits and sow seeds in the greenhouse.
He then went to the glass factory and the coke factory, each of which recruited 300 villagers as employees in the county, and Hu Yanyu and Xu Sheng each supervised the work in their own factories.
In the ward of "Shuibo Liangshan Central Hospital", the divine doctor An Daoquan was giving infusions to patients, and there were seven or eight apprentices standing behind him......
The busiest is Director Yan Qing's "Shuibo Liangshan Martial Arts Hall". Because of the extraordinary times, the martial arts hall has become a boot camp. Eighty-hundred, three-five-hundred, and recruits sign up every day. Song Ping, Wang Ling'er, and Qian Xiaoyue were responsible for registering the book, and Yan Qing, Hua Rong, Shi Jin, Zhang Qing, Shi Xiu, Kong Ming, Kong Liang and others taught the recruits various skills such as horseback riding, guns and sticks, and archery.
After a round and turn, Song An locked himself in the office and began to think about transforming the paraglider.
Wang Qing also has paratroopers on his side, and if he wants to win, he can only overwhelm them with absolute superiority in flying paratroopers.
It's not enough to rely on the number of people alone.
You can train new paratroopers, and so can Wang Qing.
You have to pay attention to skills and routines to achieve the effect of four or two thousand pounds.
Song An hung a paraglider on the beam of the house and propped it up, and stood by staring at it, his brain racing.
He thought of airplane air combat.
In air combat, it is OK to shoot down the enemy's plane.
Isn't it the same for paragliding?
In fact, there is no need for people sitting on the paraglider to fight each other in the air, as long as the other party's parachute line is cut, the other party will naturally fall.
But this trick doesn't seem to work, you can cut someone's rope, and someone can cut your rope!
…… Then use rockets!
This rocket is not a rocket that escaped from the atmosphere in later generations, but a flaming arrow.
The paragliding umbrella is made of cloth, and it catches fire when it is touched, and as long as the umbrella is burned out, the person under the umbrella will fall directly and die.
But this trick doesn't seem to work, you can burn people, and people can burn you!
Burn your sister!
Lao Tzu will burn you casually, and you won't be able to burn it!
Lao Tzu can make fireproof cloths!
This kind of thing was invented by people in the nineteenth century, and now the entire Great Song Dynasty assumes that there are no modern people who have crossed over from Wang Qing's side, then he Song An will get it alone.
It's also very simple, only three ingredients are needed: alum, water, and umbrella cloth.
The steps are also extremely simple in three steps:
1: Stir alum and water into a solution in a ratio of ten to one.
2: Soak the umbrella cloth in the solution for 10 minutes and take it out.
3: Sun-drying.
Fire prevention principle: When the cloth silk is soaked in alum solution, a chemical reaction occurs, and a transparent non-melt film is generated to cover the cloth to isolate the oxygen during combustion, so that the cloth will not be ignited.
Alum is no longer easy to find, it is also called alum, thousands of years ago people began to use it in medicine, with detoxification, itching, hemostasis, heat and phlegm and other effects. It's sold everywhere in pharmacies.
Just talk about not practicing fake tricks, try it first!
Song An rolled up his paraglider and went to the hospital outside the county again.
An Daoquan was busy treating people while taking apprentices, so Song An ignored him, got into the pharmacy by himself, got a few catties of alum soaked in a wooden barrel and started the experiment.
Dilute first, then soak, remove, and dry......
The treated umbrella cloth looks exactly the same as the original, but it feels like a film to the touch, and the texture is a little harder.
The fire prevention effect is very good, Song An lit the umbrella cloth with a fire fold for a long time, and the umbrella cloth was stunned!
The problem of fire prevention is solved, and the next step is to solve the problem of anti-cutting and anti-burning of the paracord.
This is also simple, and it is easy to replace the paracord made of hemp with a thin steel wire. Both chopping and burning.
After Song An told these operations to Hou Jian, the commander of the Liangshanbo Weaving Battalion who came here to help make paragliders, he came to Cai Jing and Gao Yu.
When His Majesty Lao Zhao left from Lanling, Song An greeted him and left Cai Jing and Gao Yu behind.
As long as he doesn't want the life of His Majesty Lao Zhao, Lao Zhao is almost obedient to Song An. And Lao Zhao had already discovered that Song An had no intention of killing him at all, otherwise he would have killed him a hundred times.
Song An arranged for Cai Jing and Gao Yu to live in the two east wings opposite his room, and also found a servant for each of them.
Neither of them was in the room, and the servant who was in the house told Song An that the two had gone to the inner courtyard.
Zhao Huanhuan lives in the courtyard.
As soon as Song An entered the courtyard gate, he heard the sound of Zhao Huanhuan's house talking.
Pushing the door in, but the kang was burning warm, Gao Yu and Cai Jing were bathing the big black dog "Song Xiaojiang" squatting in the wooden basin, its son, "Song Xiaoan", who had already grown from a little yellow dog to a big yellow dog, had finished bathing, and Zhao Huanhuan and Cai Jing's servants were wiping its wet body with towels.
Seeing Song An coming in, Cai and Gao hurriedly threw a smile at him.
