Chapter Seventy-Six: Preparations for the Expedition

Ling Yu soon arrived at the base, put away his embarrassment and walked into the barracks, Zhou Shaobin had already arrived here, and walked over when he saw Ling Yu.

"Brother Ling, you must know everything from beginning to end, these hateful traitors, if it weren't for my identity...... Say anything, I will follow you to lead the army and kill all these traitors. Zhou Shaobin said angrily.

"Baked cakes, you just have fun, the expedition is full of food and sleep, it's hard work, I'm really a hard worker, I have to lead troops out of Beijing to quell the rebellion before the honeymoon is over." Ling Yu said.

"Alas, it's really the same life, I just want to go out to fight, it's annoying to stay in the capital, you don't like to go out, but you want to go out." Zhou Shaobin sighed.

"So, you have to cherish your current days, when you become the emperor, I'm afraid it won't be easy to get out of the palace." Ling Yu quipped.

"Cut, I'm the biggest when the time comes, who can stop me?" Zhou Shaobin was unconvinced.

Ling Yu smiled and didn't answer, and then asked Li Shu to summon Lin Qing, Luo Quan, Xie Jun and other senior generals of the Guards Army to discuss the matter.

Zhou Shaobin also knew that now was the time to do business, so he didn't laugh with Ling Yu anymore, and stood aside and waited quietly with Ling Yu.

Soon, Lin Qing and the others came to the Shuai tent, and the generals above the regiment commander were all summoned by Ling Yu and filled the Shuai tent.

"I received news today that the three Tusi of the Song Domain in the north of Chengdu Prefecture rebelled, and His Majesty ordered Ben Hou to lead the first division of the New Guards Army to go out, and the second division stayed at the base and stepped up training, don't slack off because I am not there" Ling Yu looked around at everyone and said majestically.

When the generals of the First Division led by Lin Qing heard that they were going out to fight, their eyes lit up and they were excited, while the generals of the Second Division led by Luo Quan were extremely disappointed, and the equipment was slower than that of the First Division, and the opportunity to fight was also to take care of the First Division, which made them a little discouraged.

It seemed to see the thoughts of Luo Quan and the others, Ling Yu said: "Luo Quan, don't be disappointed in your second division, first, your rifle assembly has not yet been completed, and second, the Beijing division still needs the guards of our new army after all, your responsibility is still very heavy, don't think that if you don't go out, you don't pay attention to you, we are leaving the rear to you to guard, I hope you cheer up, don't let this wait down, and now the production capacity of the Academy of Sciences workshop has been steadily increasing, presumably when we come back from the expedition, you will also complete the assembly, Next, you will have to retrain the other four armies, and you must train strictly so that you can set an example in the future. ”

"Yes, I will follow the orders of the Hou Ye, and my subordinates will understand." After hearing this, Luo Quan's heart froze, and he immediately blamed himself for the negative heart just now, and most of the other generals of the Second Division also understood the meaning of Ling Yu's words and cleaned up their minds.

Ling Yu explained to Luo Quan about the training of the new army after he left, and then let the people of the second division leave, leaving Lin Qing, Chen Gui and other generals of the first division, carefully instructing them to make preparations.

After some explanation, nearly two hours have passed, Zhou Shaobin has always been watching from the sidelines, not saying a word, he loves military, and now he has seen Ling Yu's way of doing things with his own eyes by Ling Yu's side, and he has a deeper understanding of military aspects.

After explaining everything that should be explained, Ling Yu asked them all to go down and prepare, turned around and sat down, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea, looked at Zhou Shaobin who was in a daze and said, "Hey, baked cakes, what are you in a daze?" ”

"Well, I'm not in a daze, I'm thinking about things, just now I saw that you arranged all kinds of affairs very well, but you don't seem to have arranged a baggage camp to accompany you, don't you need food and grass to fight?" Zhou Shaobin asked puzzled.

When Ling Yu heard this, he smiled mysteriously and explained: "The new army I trained really doesn't need a baggage battalion to accompany them, each soldier is issued with a storage ring, grain, grass and ordnance can be distributed to the soldiers in sufficient quantities, and each company also has a squad door to manage a large storage spirit guide, which can also place a lot of ordnance and spare military rations, of course I don't need to bring a baggage battalion." ”

The storage ring used by the soldier is naturally a cheap version of the storage ring researched by Xiaoling, which is not only cheap, but also has a lot of reserves, enough for a single soldier to carry military rations and rifle spare parts and bullets that can be used for half a year, and a squad is set up in each company to manage a large storage spirit guide, which is said to be large, in fact, it is about the size of a mountaineering bag, and the reserve is ten times that of a single soldier.

After that, Ling Yu carefully explained his current logistics strategy to Zhou Shaobin, and after finishing speaking, Zhou Shaobin suddenly realized, praising Ling Yu for being smart, with these things, isn't the Great Zhou army charging (supplying) for a minute (once) to fight for half a year.

"Brother Ling, I won't say anything about praising you, alas, sometimes I wonder what would happen if I didn't have Brother Ling in my big week." Zhou Shaobin suddenly sighed.

"If there is no appearance, maybe the Zhao family will rebel earlier, although the Great Zhou can quell the rebellion, but it will inevitably be greatly damaged, at the same time, because the Great Zhou does not have the appearance of psionic technology, Western countries will soon surpass the Great Zhou in their magical technology, at some point, they will come to our land with strong ships and cannons, as well as powerful muskets, to burn and loot, and we can't beat them, but now these will not happen, if they dare to stretch out their hands, I will definitely cut them off mercilessly." Ling Yu looked at Zhou Shaobin with a firm gaze and said.

Zhou Shaobin was also infected by Ling Yu's firmness, and said loudly: "Brother Ling, I am relieved to have your words, I will work hard with you, according to what you told me before, we want Da Zhou to become the most powerful empire in the world, with an emperor who has reached the top of Ling, this country is worthy of being called an empire, Brother Ling, encourage it, we must achieve it in my lifetime." ”

"Baked cakes, don't worry, this matter will be done by our generation, so that our families, our future generations, can bathe in the glory of the Great Zhou Empire." Ling Yu's mood also stirred.

As everyone knows, this conversation before the expedition became true a few years later, when Ling Yu and Zhou Shaobin were already famous, and the world was prostrate at the feet of the Great Zhou Empire.

After the affairs of the military camp were arranged, Ling Yu chatted with Zhou Shaobin for a few words, and then rushed to the Academy of Sciences non-stop, he had to arrange many things in his absence, especially the spring ploughing was about to begin, at that time, it was estimated that he was still fighting in Sichuan Province, and he had to arrange the manufacturing of the cultivator in advance.

Summoned Wu Yong and Yang Yuan, Ling Yu simply said that he was going to go on the expedition, Wu Yong and Yang Yuan were not too surprised, in their eyes, Hou Ye is omnipotent, he is the kind of person who can put pen to paper and settle the world, and Wu can go to Ma Dingkun. 520

"The matter of the cultivator should be grasped quickly, and a batch of supplies to Huangzhuang should be tried as soon as possible, I think the problem should not be very big, and at the same time, your spirit core manufacturing machine should also step up production, this is the top priority, with a large number of spirit core manufacturing machines, in order to ensure the production capacity of all our things, and how much equipment is produced by the second division of the Guards New Army now?" Ling Yu said.

"Hou Ye, because there are too many things that need to be produced, they are all crowded together, and now it is not easy to install the first division, and the equipment of the second division has just begun to be produced, but Hou Ye don't worry, it is estimated that after a month, the number of spirit core manufacturing machines will increase, and the equipment of the second division is not a problem." Wu Yong explained.

"Well, that's fine, you have to take on the responsibility of the technical leader when I'm away, I can't guide you at such a distance, I hope you can take charge of it alone, you and Yang Yuan are both scientists at the base who I think are currently the highest level, and you can't slack off in the future, continue to work hard, don't let me down." Ling Yu said with a smile.

Wu Yong and Yang Yuan heard Ling Yu's affirmation of them, they were excited about the blood surging up, and they couldn't wait to spill their blood for Ling Yu, Ling Yu didn't expect them to frown if they wanted to die, once upon a time, they were still penniless, and now they were affirmed by the person they admired the most in their hearts, and they were immediately excited, and swore again and again, saying that they would not disappoint Hou Ye.

Ling Yu looked at the excited two with satisfaction, he also had the intention of cultivating them well in his heart, and the current effect was not bad.

"By the way, you send 500 craftsmen to accompany my army to repair or build something if necessary." Ling Yu thought for a moment.

"Yes, Master Hou, my subordinates will immediately arrange for 500 craftsmen with the best skills to follow Master Hou on the expedition." Hearing Ling Yu's order, Wu Yong and Yang Yuan immediately replied.

"Well, that's fine, I'll explain everything to you, don't say more, you do your best to do it well." Ling Yu said.

Ling Yu thought about it, and after saying everything, he asked them to go down and act according to their own instructions, and seeing that it was getting late, he called Zhou Shaobin and left the base.

"Brother, can you be a little bit of a look, I haven't seen you like this before." Zhou Lingjiao said angrily, after Ling Yu and Zhou Shaobin left together, they went back to Ling Yu's mansion together, and just after the meal, Ling Yu left Zhou Shaobin to eat.

Unexpectedly, after Zhou Shaobin ate all kinds of dishes made by the chef in Ling Yu's house, he couldn't stop and didn't look like him, Ling Yu watched it funny from the side, and Zhou Ling said his brother dissatisfied.

Originally, Ling Yu asked Xinyue to serve on the table together, but Xinyue refused, although it is usually time when there are no outsiders to eat together, but this time Zhou Shaobin suddenly came, Xinyue is a traditional woman, she dare not offend the majesty of the royal family, even if Zhou Shaobin will not blame her, Ling Yu is useless to talk about it, so he has to give up.

Zhou Ling doesn't care, anyway, her brother used to eat and play together in the past, so he got used to it.

"Imperial sister, it's so delicious, I can't imagine that Brother Ling can not only engage in high-tech, but also make delicious food." Zhou Shaobin sighed.

The cooks in Ling Yu's house are naturally influenced by Ling Yu for a long time, and Ling Yu himself will say some dishes he knew in his previous life from time to time, both Chinese and Western, and then let the chef do it, until Ling Yu is satisfied with what he eats, and over time, the chefs of Ling Yu's family have practiced good cooking skills and made dishes that Da Zhou has or does not have.

The dishes that Zhou Shaobin ate today are those Xinjiang dishes in Ling Yu's previous life, this piece of land is still in the hands of Tubo, naturally it rarely appears in Da Zhou, not to mention that poor place, I don't know if there is a cuisine now, but the seasoning is not easy to find, many seasonings are substituted, not as good as chili, but it is still very delicious, and Ling Yu himself is very satisfied with what he eats.

"Brother Ling, let's discuss, can you give me one as a cook?" Zhou Shaobin burped, rolled his eyes, and asked.

"That's not good, my chef is something I trained with great difficulty, there are 3 in total, what should I do if I give it to you, no, no, but if you want to eat, you can come directly to my house, now we all live in Qinglongfang, it's close, not to mention Ling'er is also there." Ling Yu shook his head and said.

"Hey, that's what you said, your house will be my canteen in the future, and you have to come over every day to eat." Zhou Shaobin smiled slyly.

"No problem, if you can eat poor, I'll count you as powerful." Ling Yu also said with a smile, when it comes to wealth, Ling Yu is not lacking, there were so many large orders a few days ago, Ling Yu paid taxes and ate a lot of money, and the Chamber of Commerce is now working at full speed to meet these big customers.

"Brother, I will be very happy if you can come over often, I will cook whatever you want to eat, as long as you are not afraid of getting fat." Zhou Ling squinted on the side, with a smile on her pretty face.

"Okay, I've decided, in order to live up to the kindness of your husband and wife, I won't leave tonight, stay at your house, and eat a day tomorrow." Zhou Shaobin shouted.

"Okay, no problem, come on, take His Royal Highness King Qi down to the wing room to rest." Ling Yu smiled and instructed the subordinates outside.

"Eh, don't worry, it's only time, don't be in a hurry to rest, Brother Ling, you have a lot of ideas, do you have any fun to find?" Zhou Shaobin took a sip of Ling Yu's special drink, which was actually a mixed juice, but Zhou Shaobin liked it very much and had already drunk a large cup.

"Having fun? Well, let me think about it. Ling Yu hugged Xiong with his left hand and pressed his right hand against his chin.

"Uh-huh, think about it." Zhou Shaobin urged impatiently, it seems that he still hasn't changed much.

"Hehe, I thought of it, you guys wait, I'll make a card game, just three people can play, and it's very interesting." Ling Yu smiled mysteriously, and then went out to prepare.
