Chapter 634: Nostalgia 34

>,!

Snowflakes are falling in Jizhou, Hebei, in the city of Xindu

p> carved beams and painted buildings and warm and harmonious Metropolitan Governor's Palace,

"Sell them ......"

Zhang Bangchang, who proclaimed himself the general of Shangzhu Guoda and recruited all three provinces of Pinglu and Andong in Hebei, also waved his hand vigorously at a group of civil and military subordinates with some annoyance

"As long as the other party is willing to accept it, he will sell them everything."

"I want more coal and iron......"

"If you can survive this winter, you can get through Atuna......"

"He's a newcomer, and he's a much tougher ...... than me."

Although he apparently possessed a vast territory, in addition to the territory directly controlled by several prefectures in central Hebei, he, the governor of the capital and the envoy of the capital, was more like the leader of the alliance who was gradually centrifuged by the localized faction who gradually centrifuged because of Huma's large-scale invasion.

And he was able to continue to maintain and expand his influence on local control in the post-war landscape.

On the one hand, because he has a natural advantage in reputation and strength, in addition to Jizhou, he also controls Jingzhou, Shenzhou Hejian Mansion, etc., the hinterland of Hebei is the richest, and it is also the most intact land of several states.

Because before, for the "invincible" that only entered Hebei, most of the population and combat power retreated into the city.

At the same time, before Hu Ma invaded, Hebei Xingtai in Jizhou had already gathered most of the troops, money, food, and wealth in the name of preparing for the enemy.

Therefore, more than a month later, when Huma ravaged Hebei, his rule was the most intact area, and he took in more exiled refugees who came to defect.

Let him choose from the young and strong, make up and enrich those who have been crippled or scattered, and then use this to gradually exclude the influence from the center of Luodu, and the livestock have some undesirable ambitions and thoughts.

Why can I only be an agent of the Luodu Imperial Court, instead of a party that can really make my own decisions?

Especially when the capital of the Luodu court was difficult to protect, and it was in danger of being beaten into the capital under the siege of the Southern Dynasty, he could be regarded as leaving a way back and vitality for the Zhang family, which could be destroyed at any time.

Then there are things that start and can no longer be reversed and reversed.

He tried step by step, from cautiously and secretly withholding materials, money and grain for the Ji Civil War Zone, to blatantly seizing and detaining the military service from Hebei, and finally came to this point.

But now the Luodu Imperial Court, which was originally struggling to breathe like a candle in the wind, actually relied on the off-the-shelf trick of indulging the outside of the Hu to enter the customs, and was able to come back to life, which is a devastating fact.

So, when the Luodu court began to gradually regain the lost territory and gather strength to recover the mountains and rivers little by little, he also began to send people to negotiate and deal with them secretly, and humbly accept the money.

Hope that the other party can accept the reality, or temporarily admit the status quo; On the one hand, he actively stationed troops and accumulated valleys, swept the localities, and attracted the local forces scattered around the area, just in case.

But it was clear that the newly ascended regent did not have the slightest intention or sign of compromise with him, a rebel who was both a close member of the Zhang clan and an important minister, but who was drawn from the bottom of the kettle at a critical juncture.

It is difficult to climb and let him go far away to Anton, and the minimum requirements for guarding the border for the country are not good. Instead, he swore that he would be reversed and passed on to the nine sides to set an example.

Then he had to make up his mind, and he moved without hesitation, and the back hand hidden in the Yellow River Water Division intercepted and stole the Qinwang people from Pinglu Andong Yanbian, which was a complete break with Luodu.

Fortunately, the new regent obviously overestimated the advantages and influence of Hebei Province.

Under Zhang Bangchang's all-out counterattack for Hebei Xingtai, Zhang Ji, the transit ambassador sent by Luodu, was once excluded and squeezed, so he could only hide in a corner of Huaizhou on the north bank of the Yellow River, desperately asking for help from the other side.

However, the good times did not last long, with the arrival of another newcomer of the same clan, Zhang Dekun, who took the initiative to start several battles, annihilated and defeated several peripheral men and horses of the northern expedition to the north of the Afu River, and severely punished the local officials and people at both ends of the rats, and then reorganized and subdued several states along the western line of the Huang.

In the end, under the lack of strength due to excessive consumption of money and food, Hebei Xingtai, which was controlled by Zhang Bangchang, fell back into a long standoff and confrontation.

That's not a good sign. Although Zhang Bangchang is good at fighting for power and profit, it does not mean that he has no long-term vision.

Behind this clan member nicknamed "Comeback", there is a northern kingdom represented by the entire Luodu Imperial Court, and as the land and population are more and more recovered, it can be expected that the support and support received by the other party will be greater and greater.

In Hebei Province, where the Huma rebels were rampant, his own advantages were wiped out little by little.

This can't help but make Zhang Bangchang not anxious.

But his biggest shortcoming and shortcoming is that he really doesn't know military strategy, and he doesn't have enough convincing military exploits or outstanding military prestige.

Therefore, he had to find a way to open up sources and reduce expenditures, desperately squeeze and loot under his rule, and get more goods to feed the military leaders and warriors under him, supplemented by the means of power and magic, in order to drive him not to fight against the Luodu side, and maintain his advantage and dominance in this alliance.

Even if it is to occupy the group of people in Huaidong and do something similar to seeking skin with the tiger, he will not hesitate.

If those southern Yankees in Huaidong want to threaten Hebei, it will be at least a long-term concern in the future, but if they gain the upper hand from Luodu, it will really be an urgent worry without a place to bury.

They may use it as a compromise to temporarily spare those half-hearted local military leaders and only do some symbolic punishments, but as a symbol of self-reliance, Zhang Bangchang and his relatives will not be able to escape so easily.

Therefore, whether it is for the sake of his own power or for the sake of the future of his life, he will not hesitate to give in and compromise even if he breaks through the lower limit again and again, and does things such as collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country and asking the enemy for help.

After all, in a sense, those southern armies in Huaidong were not as much of a threat to the Yellow River Imperial Court, which had the dangerous isolation of the Yellow River and mastered the remnants of the Yellow River Naval Division, as well as the Luodu Imperial Court, which controlled the righteousness of the northern country.

On the contrary, as long as they continue to exist and grow, the Luodu court, which is deeply threatened by elbows, will definitely not be able to pull out its hands to deal with itself......

And in Yidu, Qingzhou, in the cold weather, I was braving the snow to check a batch of newly produced military industrial products.

That is, like a fence, some things are sparsely fixed on the ground, and they are very separated from each other, and from a distance it seems that there is almost no corresponding blocking and defense ability, but if you look closely, there will be some metallic luster of gray-white thin lines.

The good news for me is that after so much time of accumulation, as an important supporting means in the era of queuing to shoot, the technology tree of barbed wire has finally been pointed out by me.

At least in this era, the process of metal drawing seems to be very easy, and it can be made by a gold and silver craftsman, as long as there is enough material and a mold that knows how to heat and use large and small perforations.

But it is another thing to get enough toughness and strength of iron wire, all kinds of failed productions and scraps that are pulled off in good condition, enough to make the best craftsmen in the army feel worried.

After all, the small pieces of qualified products made with this ability and craftsmanship are all used to make the small rings needed to make chain mail. In the end, a key breakthrough was inadvertently made in the heat treatment of quenching, and the best ratio that barely met the requirements was tried.

Therefore, there is a preliminary basis for large-scale mass production, and the craftsman group that participated in the research and experiment together has also been rewarded accordingly, with collective honor and heavy rewards that fall on everyone's head.

Although, in the end, the finished product processed by the hydraulic roller shutter is only the most primitive double-strand stranded barbed wire, that is, two rows of pull wire between two iron-tipped wooden sticks.

However, in normal times, it can be rolled up, divided into arrays, placed in specific equipment, carried by cavalry or placed on special vehicles to accompany the army.

Wait until the enemy is stretched out by two people in the formation, and directly knock the wooden stick into the ground as a temporary front arrangement to resist the horse and resist the impact.

Compared with the traditional cumbersome and rigid rejection of horses, or the various means of inserting spears upside down, it can be said to be much easier to worry and trouble.

According to the specific strength of the test, the iron wire twisted together must be cut at least with a broad axe and repeatedly slashed several times before it can be cut and chopped, as for ordinary swords, in the face of senior stretch and toughness, it is a bit laborious and laborious.

And on the battlefield, as long as there is a little delay, it is enough to kill, it can be described as a home trip, killing people and setting fires, no, it should be the best companion and supporting choice when queuing up to shoot or even set up a tent.

In this way, the first batch of products can catch up with this assault operation.
