The people who rushed to Kaiping to sell sweet potatoes and potatoes also learned a piece of news that made them feel more at ease.

The Huang family actually arranged for the last time the people sold their output to deduct the deposit of two taels of silver that had been paid.

Compare your heart to your heart, the common people have nothing to say, store the remaining sweet potatoes and potatoes carefully, and if you don't understand, you can quickly ask those officials who often give guidance in the fields and the family members of Lord Xu, and if you can't find these people, you can find the "Red Flag Army" students and you can get your wish.

The common people's thinking is simple, if the sweet potatoes that have been harvested so hard are rotten in the cellar, wouldn't it be empty joy?

The young cadets went from village to village to publicize the correct method of storing potatoes and sweet potatoes, and also warned everyone that the sprouted potatoes were poisonous and could not be put into practice, and if they were not done, they would kill people.

Some of the potatoes and sweet potatoes were used to make shochu, some were processed vermicelli and vermicelli, and some of course, of course, were followed into all the towns of Hokkai-Naoli by women selling roasted sweet potatoes and potato chips.

It is expected that it will take a month and a half to digest 500,000 stone of potatoes and sweet potatoes, and it will not be a problem to sell all the output that growers can sell before the beginning of summer.

There is no doubt about the enthusiasm of the 760-year-old soldiers, and they performed well in their work when harvesting potatoes and sweet potatoes, and a small half of them got the opportunity to follow their mentor to the capital to see the world.

The three hundred and sixty cadets who were selected were actually seeds left behind, and they would not be brought with them in the upcoming battle.

More than half of these children have never been to the county seat, and this time they got the opportunity to go to Beijing, and everyone was very happy. It is no wonder that more than 300 of them are under the age of fourteen, and they are only half-grown children.

Now they are walking along the official road with four or five hundred women, pushing 200 roasted sweet potato stall carts and 180 wheelbarrow trucks full of potatoes and sweet potatoes, and they are expected to arrive in Beijing in three days.

Huang Han deliberately did not arrange the "Red Banner Army" knight escort, and nearly 40 of the 360 cadets were teenagers who had been on the battlefield, and they were also the first batch of cadet soldiers to be equipped with Huang's bird-fired birds.

These people are all junior flag officers and chief flag officers, they have 360 teenagers with them, and they have 200 bird guns in their hands, if such an armed force cannot win in the face of rogue bandits and bandits, there is no need to develop and grow again.

In the past few months, due to the abundance of human resources, and due to the rapid increase in the output and quality of iron and steel, the quality and quantity of weapons, agricultural tools and tools produced by Huang have increased rapidly.

Huang Han's equipment has also been upgraded, and it is indispensable to tailor the all-steel cuirass, and the horse chopping knife in his hand is carefully made by Yang Laoshi himself with forged steel and then hammered thousands of times, and the quality exceeds the level of 100 steel.

In particular, it is worth mentioning that Huang Han personally made a stainless steel pulley bow with the help of Yang Laoshi's team, the back of the bow is made of high-quality steel similar to the spring steel of later generations, and the bowstring is made of mulberry silk for fishing in this era.

The mulberry silk used as fishing silk is not the filament naturally spit out by the silkworm, but the ancients mastered the technology of taking out the silk slurry in the silkworm body and drawing it into a single strand of thick silk.

The steel pulley bow is somewhat similar to the modern composite bow, using a single-wheel pulley system, because the pulley system is too complicated Huang Han will not do.

The structure of this pulley system is that one wheel is in the upper part of the bow and another elliptical shape pulley that provides energy is in the lower part of the bow. This bow feels good, reliable and easy to maintain.

It's really not easy to make modern products with ancient craftsmanship, Huang Han personally participated in the production or scrapped a lot, and now there are five bows that meet the equipment standards in Huang Han's heart, but it is not realistic for such a bow to become a large road cargo equipment unit.

Because Yang Laoshi can't predict whether the selected steel fully meets the standards, it is not easy to get the finished product completely by luck, the cost is too high, and there is another reason that it needs to be adjusted and maintained frequently, so it is not suitable to become a standard weapon in the army.

Steel pulley bows have the advantage of saving half the effort, as well as the convenience of being able to use them around the clock, so Huang Han no longer has to worry about the possibility of his bow being poured in heavy rain for several hours and becoming a scrap.

Huang Han now uses the steel pulley bow every day to practice diligently to find the feel, and now the quasi-head has reached the state of using the traditional Kaiyuan bow of the Ming Dynasty.

The advantage of using a steel pulley bow is that compared with the traditional Kaiyuan bow, it is not afraid of moisture, and the effective range is five steps farer, and thirty lethal arrows are shot one after another, which can be easily used with Huang Han's physical strength.

Huang Han did not set off with the large contingent of the division into Beijing, he set off one day late to hold a coordination meeting in Kaiping, and the officials and assistants of the "Red Banner Army" system were given different tasks.

During this period, Song Pengfei, Zhao Kun, Yang Jian, and other infantry officers and assistants paid close attention to organizing infantry gunners to conduct live-fire training, and achieved remarkable results and formed combat effectiveness.

Because the monthly production of bird guns has been rising, there are now more than 1,000 infantry equipped with them, and Song Pengfei's 700 bird guns have a surplus of one manpower, and even two with outstanding shooting results.

In fact, it is relatively easy for the hot weapon unit to form combat effectiveness, as long as it is not too stupid, the bird gunners who have been trained for three to six months can be loaded and released with ease, and Song Pengfei still selects people with a certain foundation to form an army.

Hanzi, Yang Guoen, Liu Fenyong, Yang Danian, Wang Zhanpeng and other cavalry officers led all the cavalry to conduct long-distance raids and training almost every day.

It is not so easy for cavalry to form combat effectiveness, although the recruits are all selected from the military miscellaneous service that has been honed on the battlefield, and they need to go through the actual combat test to become real knights.

In the past few months, the cavalry often went to Funing, passed through the Santun camp and then to Longjing Pass, and went directly to Da'ankou and Hongshankou through Zunhua.

When Huang Han held the meeting, he assigned tasks, and all the officials led the men and horses to Da'ankou to assemble, and the number of military servants was selected according to the basic principle of consciousness and voluntariness, and the next step was naturally known when Huang Han came in person.

Zheng Xiaowen, Huang Yong, Huang Yi and Gao Youmou were responsible for diverting and arranging for the displaced people living temporarily in Kaiping to go to the newly built "Red Banner Army" base camp fortress.

This fortress has been built for half a year by 10,000 people, and now it is beginning to take shape, the circumference of the city wall is seven miles, the height is three zhang and three feet, and the width is one zhang, although the scale may not reach a better county town in the Ming Dynasty, but the design of the fortress is adopted, and it is more defensive.

The fortress is a type of ancient fortress, the essence of which is to change the fortress from a convex polygon to a concave polygon, which reduces the defensive dead ends, so that no matter what point the attacker attacks the castle, it will expose more than one bastion to the defenders.
