Chapter 81: Preparing for War
The villagers of Liujiazhai were mobilized by Zhang Jun's speech, and Zhang Jun hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and began to recruit people on the spot. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In addition to farming, they are also responsible for the protection and hunting in the village, so they can also dance with knives and guns, and their archery skills are not bad. Han Hu, who was in charge of recruitment, did not refuse to come, and recruited 120 people in one go.
These young men also dug out the tattered copper and iron armor that had not been used for a long time from their homes, and some still had weapons, but they were full of gaps. The Liang army had also captured a large amount of armor before, and although they lost a lot of it later, they still barely managed to protect the conscripted villagers. Some people lack parts, so they cut off the bark to make do, anyway, it is better than nothing.
In addition to the villagers joining the army to help defend the defense, Suo Sanjie and Jiang Wan also selected some women to make a fire and cook for everyone. The large amount of money seized from the Huns was distributed as a commission, and for a time these village girls were very enthusiastic, and they all fought bravely to work for the Liang army.
Patriarch Liu originally planned to move the family, but seeing that the raw rice was cooked into cooked rice, he couldn't say anything against it, so he could only silently contribute all the food stored at home. There is no way, the arms can't twist the thighs, if you provoke these cool troops, he will be finished before the Huns come.
A group of people were busy until noon, and someone came over to greet Zhang Jun, and when he looked back, it turned out to be Song Pei.
I saw Song Pei said: "My lord, Zeqing has only been thinking about it for a long time, and I feel that it is imperative not only to compile the newly recruited soldiers into a military registration list, but also to set military laws and rules as soon as possible, so that there is a basis for rewards and punishments." "Liangwubu Battle Order" is too complicated, and I am afraid that the villagers will be at a loss for a while, so Zeqing summarized the most important points and wrote the 'four cuts and three punishments' order, and asked the lord to look at it. As he spoke, he presented a piece of silk.
Zhang Jun hurriedly took it, only to see that it was written: "Those who disobey the order are beheaded, those who flee from the battle are beheaded, those who leave their guards without permission are beheaded, and those who are out of order are beheaded; Those who bully the weak will be punished, those who will be punished for personal enemies, and those who damage the armor will be punished. ”
"Very good! Very good! Zhang Jun praised: "Although Ze Qingzhi's 'four slashes and three punishments' are brief, they basically cover all the problems that new pawns can encounter, Jun is hereby thanked!" ”
Song Pei didn't dare to say anything, and said: "Zeqing doesn't dare to be greedy for merit, this order also has a credit from Ruqing." ”
"Haha!" Zhang Jun laughed when he heard this, and teased: "Zeqing, you can hide from me so hard, why, don't you tell the truth?" ”
Song Pei was so smart, after hearing this, he immediately understood that the lord must have known. He immediately bowed down and asked for guilt: "My lord forgive me, it's not that Zeqing intends to deceive, it's just that my cousin is really very assertive, Zeqing can't persuade her, so he tries his best to help her hide it・・・・・・"
"It's okay!" Zhang Jun hugged Song Pei and said: "Ru Qing's talent doesn't let Xu Mei, what's the matter if it's a daughter?" “
He waved his hand and said: "Wei Wu used talents in an eclectic manner, and I, Zhang Jun, should emulate the sages." When I return to Liangzhou, I will personally recruit Ruqing as a female official. ”
Song Pei was overjoyed and said: "The lord is wise. ”
"Wisdom or not, we'll talk about it later." Zhang Jun waved his hand and said: "The top priority is that Zeqing, you and Hu Shuo and the pro-army guards immediately recite this 'four beheadings and three punishments' order in public a few times to know the whole army!" ”
Song Pei immediately took the order and said: "No! ”
Subsequently, Zhang Jun entrusted Jiang Wan and asked her to register the soldiers. Then he ordered Han Hu to start compiling 120 new pawns into various uncles, teams, shi, and soldiers, and implement the method of using the old to lead the new and the strong to lead the weak, so that these young people can become familiar with the rules as soon as possible.
Busy with the lights at night, Zhang Jun discussed with the people around him for a long time, and finally made a rough plan. First of all, it is necessary to order each family to contribute iron and bronze tools to the craftsman team, and Suo Sanjie is responsible for leading the craftsmen to make them into simple weapons and armor; secondly, Han Hu and Zhou are the same main and one deputy, and the two are responsible for training the soldiers; In the end, Zhang Jun himself took Song Pei and Hu Shuo to build fortifications. As for Jiang Wan, she is responsible for leading the women to take care of the logistics. In addition, all the documents in the army were also placed in his hands.
At this time, Suo Sanjie spoke: "Lord, today I gathered the villagers who have craftsmanship in the village, but I accidentally found a talent. ”
"Oh?"
Suo Sanjie's words succeeded in attracting everyone's attention.
Zhang Jun asked curiously, "What kind of talent?" ”
"Blacksmith!"
"Blacksmith?" Han Hu said: "What kind of talent is the iron・・・・・・
"Quan Bin, you go on!" Zhang Jun interrupted in time and said solemnly.
When Han Hu saw the young general speak, he became silent, and followed to see what Suo Sanjie could say.
Others may despise the role of craftsmen, but Zhang Jun definitely not. In later generations, a great man said that "science and technology are the primary productive forces." In ancient societies, the development of science and technology mainly depended on those low-status craftsmen. If the blacksmith that Suo Sanjie said was really unique, Zhang Jun would never want to miss it easily.
Seeing that the lord attaches great importance to it, Suo Sanjie immediately said: "Although Quan Bin doesn't know how to make iron, the craftsmen of our craftsman team understand, and there are special blacksmiths in the team. So Quan Bin thinks that this person may be useful to the lord・・・・・・"
"In that case, I will meet this man tomorrow." Zhang Jun immediately decided.
"Tomorrow you will all take action, who still has questions?" He asked, looking around.
Seeing that his subordinates had no doubts, Zhang Jun waved his hand and said, "Then disperse, rest early, and be busy tomorrow!" ”
So everyone bowed down and took the order, and they all withdrew.

The defense measures of Liujiazhai are 100 times stronger than the previous Zhangjiazhai, there is a small section of low wall with earth ramming, and the wooden wall is also very well built. After all, there is a lot of strength in numbers, and there can be people who are engaged in off-the-job activities. has a good foundation, which has brought great convenience to Zhang Jun's arming plan. Early the next morning, he, Song Pei, and Hu Shuo began to patrol around, scribbling and painting on silk silk.
Soon, the general plan was successfully released, with Zhang Jun's modern wisdom and Song Pei's inspection and filling in the gaps, the new defense facilities were more perfect. The rest is for Hu Shuo to be responsible for leading the older men into practice.
The dwarf strength of the earth ramming was strengthened and heightened, and a trench with a depth of one zhang and a width of about half a zhang was dug outside the wall. The ditch was filled with sharpened tree trunks and animal bones to increase defenses. Later, after inspecting the site, Zhang Jun ordered a trench to be dug in the stockade, and then another wooden wall was built. In this way, once the outer wall is lost, it can be transferred to the inner wall to fight.
In the manufacture of weapons, because there are not a large number of tools at hand, Suo Sanjie offered advice and put forward the plan of "cutting wood for soldiers"!
The place where Liujiazhai is located is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there are woods and bamboo forests on the mountains. In the Middle Ages, the Yellow River Basin was still a land of abundant water and soil, and although the weather became colder after entering the Xiaoice period, bamboo still grew very commonly.
Suo Sanjie fiddled with the new weapon in his hand and demonstrated: "Lord, there are many hard bamboos in this mountain, just sharpen one end, you can use it as a spear." Although it is not as sharp and durable as an iron gun, it also has the advantage that it is lighter and longer than solid wood. It can be used when the infantry is arrayed against the enemy, and if it is not durable, one person can prepare a few. “
The conditions were difficult, and Zhang Jun didn't have any good way, so he immediately nodded in agreement. Suddenly, he remembered the blacksmith recommended by Suo Sanjie last night, so he asked, "Quan Bin, where is the blacksmith you are talking about?" ”
"Oh!" Suo Sanjie slapped his head and said apologetically: "I forgot about it for a while, the lord will wait, I will bring him." ”
After a while, Suo Sanjie really walked over with a swarthy middle-aged man.
Zhang Jun looked the black man up and down, and said, "Who is your surname, and what is the difference?" ”
The black man hurriedly knelt down and said: "The grass people knock on the general, the villain's surname is Liu Minghua, he can only strike iron, and there is nothing extraordinary・・・・・・"
"Liu Hua!" Zhang Jun didn't care too much about it, but when he heard the black man say that his name was Liu Hua, his heart tightened suddenly. Why? Because in history, the only sword-casting master in the north during the period of the Sixteen Kingdoms of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was called Liu Hua!
