It was a long sleepless night, during which it is said that several rebels had infiltrated the city in search of an opportunity to cause trouble, but most of them were captured and killed by the officers and soldiers who were one step ahead of the others. All that was left was the noise of running through the night, and a few fires that were gradually being extinguished.

Anyway, I've already got it, pack up and leave for the right time, and I'll not stay here for long, this is the voice of most of my subordinates, but sometimes, the plan can't keep up with the changes.

"What, can't go ...... yet"

After dawn, I bid farewell to the high favor who had been given the temporary supreme command of the entire city's officers and soldiers, but I got this bad news.

"Now the whole city is in a big rope, and those things have happened at the banquet, and every bit of manpower is important"

After a busy night, he said to me with some tired patience

"Let you stay forever for a while, but there is no way to do it,"

"What's more, you're a topic of conversation in the military now."

His expression became a little playful

"As soon as you came, you lured out the main force of the rebels,"

"You just happened to be able to detect the poisonous conspiracy at the celebration banquet of the traitorous party in time...... Somewhat saved."

"So much so that now, everyone in the army is talking about your unspeakable luck."

"Whether it is public or private, you must also borrow the luck and reputation of your department...... Calm people's hearts and talk about it."

"What"

I was completely speechless, this is okay, is it the best portrayal of helping to stone yourself in the foot

"After a long time, I will definitely not believe in these ethereal things to ......"

"Believe it or not......

He laughed, with some kind of affection

"Although the experience of this night is really sad, I am still very grateful for your ability and the opportunity you brought me......

It dawned on me that because of the haste of the Anyuan Prefecture change, a unified and clear command system like the Tiannan Rebel Army was not established, but the highest rank in the field was the general coordination and command.

After yesterday's incident, several highest-ranking officials present were unable to see things for a short time because of excessive drinking and various complications, so the temporary expedient command passed into the hands of the highest-ranking favored of the guest army.

I believe that with his skills and the city government, he will not make good use of this opportunity to allow himself to obtain substantial benefits and benefits. For example, the title of "expedient" has become more deserved.

"What does the system want us to do......

The other party is so heartfelt, I can't pretend to be stupid or indifferent to the end.

"Our department has no name and no division, and our ability is limited, so I can't afford to take on any heavy responsibilities...... Only what you can ......"

"Nothing is a problem......

He seems to be waiting for my words,

"Actually, I plan to appoint your ministry to guard the grain station or one of the important places of the arsenal......

"After all, your troops were directly sent from Tiannan, and they have nothing to do with the local government, and they are less disturbed and controlled by the army, so they are more reliable."

His words changed sharply and became stern.

"Of course, if you can secretly look out for some suspicious things for me...... That's even better......"

"I have always suspected that there are people in the army who are secretly in cahoots with the traitorous party...... Only then did it fail to fall, and it was not effective

"After this last night, I can be more and more sure, and there are not a few,"

"But I didn't expect that even the people around the lord of the Nuo Domain, who was the only one who supported the official army, would not be spared."

"However, I am only in full power, and there are still those in the army who are not convinced...... There are several forces that can be mobilized in the hand, and each has its own involvement."

"Got it"

At this point, I have no way of shirking it.

"Do your best......"

So after I came out, I had a new title of "Knowing the Treasure of Sending Firearms, Rear Military Commissariat and Arsenal Supervisor", and the corresponding new seal, which was already the sixth temporary title I had also received.

So in a mixed mood, we began to change the station of large carts and small carts, from the temporary barracks on the outskirts of the city, directly to the former military hall in the inner city, where the battlefield arsenal is still in use today.

It was a complex of buildings of considerable size and size, and we were stationed in it with two or three thousand men, including the husbands, auxiliaries, and chariots, horses, and cattle, and it did not appear to be crowded at all.

Moreover, in order to facilitate the management and supervision, next to it is the Hardware Bureau and the Armor Department, although the craftsmen and workers who belong to them have either escaped or been requisitioned by the army, but the various tools, equipment and places left behind, although they have been copied in a mess, are still generally intact.

When the rebellious feudal clans led by the former Hou clan Ma clan in Anyuan Prefecture abandoned the city with a large number of people, they set fire to the treasury and material depot that could not be taken away, that is, because it was relatively less important, it was preserved.

This layout and setting, mainly because of a certain local historical origin, Tanjung continent has been known for its rich minerals since ancient times, and its history can be traced back to the reign of the Funan Kingdom.

Among them, the highly prolific Sisha and red copper ingots are the most famous, so the southern part of Tanjung Continent and Johor Island on the other side of the continent are also the main sources of minting materials for the most circulating green and small coins in the country. Therefore, the dynasty set up several money prisons and corresponding casting and seal sub-bureaus in Anyuan Prefecture.

The second is iron, there are many shallow iron ores that have been mined in the local area, including hematite mountains and limonite mountains with different content compositions, and even associated magnet production, plus the southern tip of the peninsula and the eastern Tiannan also produce high-quality coal.

And these origins, I think but some of them are located in the territory of Anyuan Prefecture.

Therefore, the local iron mountain mining and metallurgy was quite developed, and a branch workshop subordinate to the Ordnance Supervision was also set up to allocate and supply the needs of the war in the West Sea Road nearby, and the officers and soldiers who came to the first way to arm and capture Ma Kuo were besieged and destroyed, and there were at least 100,000 weapons of various colors, including the reserves established by the state, so they lost their control and flowed into the local area, and armed those rebellious vassals.

Then the upper reaches of the local rivers also produce gold and mineral gold, as well as some lead, zinc, borax, mica and other associated minerals, in addition to the main government-run mining and metallurgy, the local large and small feudal lords, there are also many people who have made a fortune in mining, so they have a lot of wealth and reserves, and more or less have a private army familiar with the mountains and forests.

In addition, they still have their own armed forces or channels for importing weapons, so once they rebel, it will evolve into a long-term tug-of-war situation in which they are entangled with the official army.

But in any case, this kind of environment and conditions, for me who has a habit of handicraft and research and development, is a ready-made testing ground and a large workshop, and the equipment and raw materials are ready-made.

As the poisoning incident at the celebration banquet, the aftermath and follow-up are still continuing. In addition to the most direct person responsible for the poisoning of the banquet, the lord of the Nuo Clan was imprisoned and awaited, and everyone around him was taken down and tortured one by one to dig deep into the inside story.

The investigation in the army is still continuing, involving at least three troops, six or seven subordinate agencies, dozens of responsible persons, etc., have been involved, and the internal problems of the officers and soldiers seem to be stricter than imagined, and various shortcomings and shortcomings accumulated in the early stage have also been discovered, so that Gao Gao has been absent from a large number of generals and generals in the officers and soldiers, and there is a smell of rumors.

Of course, it is not excluded that the enterprising Gao Jing system took advantage of the situation to cut off the arbitrary means and plans of dissidents to seize power. Because of the uneasiness and anxiety that was circulated in private, there were even officers and soldiers who had rectified the fire, and when they were on duty, they suddenly broke away from their heads and fled en masse.

Then he didn't go far, he was arrested by the law enforcement Yu Houdu and the military army, and the leader was beheaded for public display, and the rest were assigned to hard labor to serve their sentences. Then, the relevant responsible persons, including the team leaders, regimental officers, battalion heads, generals and captains of the army, and the corresponding officials and military officials, were demoted and dismissed for other purposes.

The drastic approach was drastic, but somewhat unexpected.

If the rebels attacked on a large scale at this time, they might find that what they had to face was already a fluctuating morale and a weakened official army, but unfortunately, those rebels seemed to have suffered too much in the previous war.

Therefore, except for some remote mountain villages in the state, there are traces and rumors of small haunts, and there are no decent actions.

But no matter what, the conditions and promises given to me by the new lord of the economic system were very crisp and easy to achieve without discounting.

As a matter of sincerity and condition, almost on the second day of settling in, more than 1,000 men were transferred to me, and more or less of them were veterans of several years of experience in the army, and with a little training and adjustment, they could almost come in handy.

In addition, there are warrants for cheap engagement, theoretically speaking, the armament treasury has a calendar, and all the materials involved in firearms can be taken for my own use, as long as the details are left for the record, and if necessary, the appointment of the military craftsman also has the corresponding priority.

Then the first thing I have to do is to collect more than 2,000 guns of various styles one after another, carry out on-site transformation, the main part of the transformation is the firing device, in order to improve the applicability and design efficiency, which we are already familiar with, flint, reeds are directly brought from Guangfu,

Then there is the adjustment of the pipe diameter and handguard. Although the styles of these military products are different, the old and the new are different, but the advantage is that the pipe diameter is relatively uniform. As long as the hardware and carpentry in the guò army are slightly renovated and adjusted, they can continue to be used.

This also makes the work of pre-proportioning the fixed ammunition much easier and more convenient, as long as the simple work of adding a certain amount of molds can be completed even by untrained auxiliary personnel.

As for the hundreds of guns that were eliminated and disagreed, I didn't waste them, and kept them for recruit training. If there is also some rust damage that is not usable, it will be sawn and truncated, leaving a relatively intact part, and then converted into a short-haired firearm such as a handcuff.

Then there is the confrontation of bayonet tactics, mainly the battle of the guò group, and the simple and practical bayonet fighting skills have been explored, which Yang Zaixing's group of former righteous followers gave me a small surprise, several of them are from Jingzhou, who once worshipped under the door of the famous local martial artist Zhou Song.

This Zhou Song is known as the iron arm spear, and he has a good reputation in the local army, and the main reason why he opened the museum to accept apprentices is the spear fighting skills and skills in foot combat, including although the spear and the rifle, compared with the long gun with the bayonet, there are some differences and unpleasantness.

But the simple principle of stabbing and blocking the grid is common, and my requirements are not high, without too much trickery and skills, as long as it is simple and clear, easy to learn a few to a dozen killing actions, can cooperate with each other to form a coherent combination of stabs, and achieve the effect of life and death when meeting a few together.

During this period, my biggest achievement was to design a marching backpack made of tent cloth that was specially customized for the soldiers. The elastic cloth and lining inside can easily carry everything from rations and medicines to blankets, as well as various compressed and trapped belongings, as well as sewing external pockets and hanging straps and kits loaded with various tools and small bits and pieces. You can even carry the gun across your bag with a guò cloth sleeve to free up the position of your hands and feet.
