29 first batch of armament
It took Shang Wen a long time and finally got the assistance of the King of Qin. Dig out Sima Chang is a subordinate. and changed family register. Shang Wen only found out when he poached people. The family register of these people cannot be changed. Fortunately, I found King Qin's help, otherwise, I wouldn't be able to dig it. The work ability and experience of these subordinates are very strong. Shang Wen only took them around once. These people jumped to the try.
Shang Wen took the position they had arranged. I don't ask too much, after all, I am not good at modern management. Managed by a company in the United States. It's also a thought that one is one out. However, it did not harm the most basic interests of the company.
Pipeline operations. Semi-mechanized mass production. Skilled mechanics. Lean and responsible management team. It all quickly fell into place. Shang Wen's work began to become easier. You can concentrate on your research.
Half a month. Production has largely started to steady. A hundred thousand grenades were made. There were only the first few models of rockets, and the production was not very large. Nine hundred. stirrups, horseshoes and other things are a great harvest. More than 10,000 were manufactured. The profitability situation is not very optimistic. The main thing is that there are too many expenditures. In particular, some of the costs. As a result, there is a current deficit of more than 100 catties of gold. Fortunately, there are pens and paper, lighters and other things to take care of, but the current sales volume is beginning to stabilize, that is, the vitality of new products is starting to decline. That's not a good sign. If it goes on like this, the Qin ** team has equipment. He will also be destitute. Everything I talk about mercantilism has become empty talk. It has also become a negative teaching material. Look. It's a deficit.
Shang Wen looked at the ledger. Some worried. I don't know how Meng Tian got in. Just know. This guy was very happy. Because this guy has been miserable for half a month. Nothing.
There is no shortage of horses. However, the equipment was lacking, and the work of selecting soldiers was easy to do at the beginning. I heard that a new cavalry corps was going to be formed. But after entering, they were stupid. Nothing. There are no weapons or equipment. There are only horses, isn't this a troop that puts horses. Many people were clamoring to leave, and Meng Tian didn't do anything in half a month. Now it's okay and there's equipment. Can Meng Tian not be happy.
Watch Meng Tian distribute equipment. Shang Wen felt that the deficit was temporarily forgotten. Think about the first big battle to be fought in the future is to destroy an elite cavalry unit. Shang Wen felt that he was still not confident.
Many soldiers received the equipment of the horses, and before they had nailed their horseshoe, they began to load their horses according to the people who distributed the equipment, and then rode their horses back and forth. Some of these people were chariot soldiers, and some were originally cavalry archers. Others jumped straight out of the infantry phalanx. After not moving for half a month, they couldn't hold back the joy in their hearts. The venue became chaotic for a while. Meng Tian saw. Immediately threw the work at hand to Shang Wen. I went to discipline the soldiers.
After handing out the harnesses, then the weapons. Sabre. It is relatively slender and slender. But it's very sharp. Many soldiers looked at the new weapons and looked forward to them. But seeing the slender and weak appearance of the wind, I was a little underestimated. But then in the case of ready-made experiments. All the people did not dare to despise it. Because the bronze sword in the soldier's hand was cut off directly. All the soldiers began to get to know this new companion anew.
The grenade is a lethal weapon and will not be fired for the time being. I don't send it, but it doesn't come down to not being able to demonstrate. Shang Wen ordered people to take a few grenades to a farther place to experiment with a few.
A large crowd of soldiers gathered around the grenade. Under the reprimand of the commentator, the soldier reluctantly retreated and lay on the ground. Wait for the grenade to be thrown. Explode. All the soldiers did not have the previous awe, but instead feared and excited. and curious. This is because these things are to be taught to them over a period of time and distributed in large quantities. However, in order to give the soldiers a better understanding, among the soldiers present, a few were selected and a few were experimented. The soldiers were hooked. Terrible.
Shang Wen saw all this, but he was a little worried, after all, how to have hot weapons and cold weapons. How to assemble such a strange army, the unknowns in the mind are too great.
Because of the grenade explosion, many horses were frightened. The whole venue began to get chaotic. Shang Wen tried his best to protect the equipment, but he was still impacted. Fortunately, there was no damage or explosion, otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Mengtian is also a very difficult maintenance site. The soldiers at the bottom were not transferred from the original unit, but from various units or branches, and it was very difficult to take over.
The weapons were finally distributed. The rest were strictly guarded under Meng Tian's arrangement. Shang Wen felt very tired. Meng Tian too. Because everything seems very chaotic. "How many soldiers and horses do you have?" Shang Wen said as he lay on the ground. "At present, there are less than 10,000 people, and they are temporarily organized into 8,000 people. The rest are in charge of logistics and other military sundries. Meng Tian replied. Can such a team win? I think it's messy. Shang Wen said bluntly. No. I'm worried. The army doesn't know how to train. There is no rule in how your weapons are arranged. Meng Tian said. We'll have to add it up. Can't be messed around like this. Otherwise, such a force will be less open on the battlefield. The consequences, you don't need to say anything, you can understand it. Shang Wen said. Yes, I've thought about it too, but your weapons are too difficult to arrange. Especially now, it is still cavalry that is used. Originally, I wanted to train according to the mounted archery system. It doesn't seem to be working. First of all, the equipment has changed. Hand grenade. This weapon is too lethal. The effect of the cavalry charge is obvious. You throw it out. Run in front of the enemy, but kill and wound yourself. It can only be used when retreating. Or dismount and fight. There are also some uses, I think to equip up. Some difficulty. Meng Tian said in one breath.
Shang Wen was silent, but he didn't expect Meng Tian to say a lot of questions. Shang Wen didn't expect it. With grenades. Instead, it became a burden. It's not easy to work on the cavalry at all. Unless Meng Tian is given all kinds of guns. It is better to prepare tank armored vehicles. But to be able to build that thing now is far from it. Time also does not allow.
Meng Tian said a lot. Shang Wen didn't listen to a word. He was thinking. How to do it. How to make these equipment adequate. In the past, I only had to buy weapons, how to fight and how to use them, that was a matter for the military, or the military set conditions. Design yourself according to the conditions. Figure out the situation on the battlefield. As long as the experimental model is passed, especially on the battlefield, there is basically no problem. Then it's time to sign the contract. Mass production. Then came the improvement. Until new products appear.
How to use the equipment. I know a little bit myself. At present, we have to deal with such a nondescript force. It's tricky.
