Chapter 48: The Pre-War Conference

In the Juyi Hall, Zhang Fan said: "Xiaohe Shanwa, since the first owner of the village was created, the owner of the village has gone up the mountain to build a business, and it has become more and more prosperous. The pen %fun %Ge www.biquge.info has been more than 100 years since Zhang Fan. Today, Zi Kuan has issued an edict to forgive sins and recruit peace. However, in my Shanyin, there are still many cottages that do not accept the king's transformation and poison the living beings, and I will decide to clear all the cottages in Shanyin and save my villagers from fire and water, are you willing to help me? ”

Everyone knelt on the ground and said in unison, "Obey your lordship's orders!" ”

"Very good!" Zhang Fan continued:

"In addition to our Huanglong Village in Shanyin County, there are three large cottages, the Flying Tiger Village of Wuxing Peak, the Tianwang Village of Jinniu Mountain, and the Fire Crow Village on Yaque Mountain. These are our key targets, as long as we break through these three big villages, the rest of the small villages will definitely fall to the wind. Do you have any good advice? ”

Dingdong, you have triggered a main quest "Exterminate the Bandits" and destroy all the bandit dens including Tianwang Village, Flying Tiger Village, and Fire Raven Village. Duration of the mandate: three months.

Zhang Fan chose to accept the task.

Everyone looked at each other, but no one stood up, Zhang Fan was not very happy, "Whether it's right or wrong, but it's okay to say?" ”

Still no one spoke, so Huang Gao had no choice but to stand up:

"My lord, there are less than five hundred warriors in our Huanglong Village, Flying Tiger Village, Tianwang Village, and Fire Crow Village are all big villages, among which the least Fire Crow Village also has seven or eight hundred people, more than five hundred soldiers, and the most Tianwang Village has more than 1,300 people, and more than eight hundred soldiers. Isn't it safer for us to recruit first? ”

"No need. Aren't there still more than 400 of the county soldiers captured last time in the mines? At least they're all trained and a lot better than the recruits. After so many days of polishing their arrogance and lasciviousness, it is estimated that they are much more honest now. Zhang Fan ordered: "Ling Cao!" ”

"The end will be."

"I'll give you three days of training from the captives in the mines, and you'll be able to enforce the order, understand?"

"Yes."

Zhang Fan saw that they really didn't have any ideas, and there were no qualified strategists to give advice, alas, he was so tired.

Zhang Fan sighed and continued to order: "The first stop must be the momentum of our army, and we will start from Tianwangzhai, which is the most in the limelight." In the past, everyone was a bandit, and maybe some relatives and friends were old. Passing down the order, no matter which brother in the village can say that the king, flying tiger, and fire crow in the cottage of the leader level take the initiative to vote, provide information, and reward fifty gold. I will be kind to them. Do you understand? ”

"Follow your orders."

Zhang Fan waved his hand: "Okay, you guys retreat!" ”

Everyone saluted and retired, and Zhang Fan asked, "Hou Sanbao, how is the military fundraising?" ”

With the help of the medicine that Zhang Fan exchanged from the system, after two months of recuperation, Hou Sanbao was able to walk normally.

During his recuperation, Zhang Fan often visited him, and unexpectedly found that although Hou Sanbao was illiterate, he was very sensitive to numbers and had a very strong learning ability, so Zhang Fan taught him Arabic numerals and ninety-nine multiplication formulas.

Hou Sanbao mastered it very well, in his opinion, this is almost the secret of arithmetic, so he is grateful to Zhang Fan, and he has to sell himself as a slave to repay his great kindness.

Although Zhang Fan does not approve of this approach, the way of thinking of the ancients is deviated from that of modern people. It's like if Zhang Fan insists on eating at the same table with Mo'er, he has to scare her into crying. This difference is ingrained in the bones and cannot be changed overnight. Zhang Fan can only follow the local customs, otherwise he will harm others and himself.

Now Hou Sanbao has lost two toes, feels that he has become a waste, is depressed, and almost wants to commit suicide. If Zhang Fan didn't agree, in his opinion, he would dislike his disability, which would really drive him to a dead end.

Zhang Fan couldn't resist him, so he had to sign a deed of sale with him, so Hou Sanbao became the housekeeper of Zhang's mansion, and he was solely responsible for raising military expenses this time.

"Back to the master, a total of 1.6 million yuan was raised for military spending this time. All the big ones on the list paid. ”

After Hou Sanbao's sudden big change, the whole person is much more mature and stable, except for the occasional frivolous life in front of Zhang Fan, he is not smiling in front of others.

Zhang Fan teased: "Lu's also paid? Just took out 100,000 yuan, and took out another 400,000 yuan, these clans are really rich! ”

"Doom...... Master, I heard that the Lu family sold a lot of good land, as well as the Lu family's old house, so I scraped together enough money......"

Hou Sanbao hurriedly explained, for fear that Zhang Fan would blackmail the Lu family on a whim, even if the Lu family was a fat sheep, this wool could not always stare at a sheep, and the appearance would be too ugly.

Seeing what he meant, Zhang Fan said angrily:

"Who do you think of me? Are you a money fan? Hurry up and get the military expenses right, and the army will soon be pulled. ”

"Yes! Checkmate. ”

Zhang Fan waved his hand and waited for the three treasures to bow and retreat......

The sailor "Zhen Dapeng" asked: "Fourth master, why don't you recruit soldiers?" ”

Zhang Fan replied: "The effect of conscription is average, there are not many young and strong locals, and the health is poor, and the training is also very time-consuming and laborious. I'd rather defeat those cottages and co-opt those bandits. Combat effectiveness can be formed faster. ”

"I see, but there are few of you, Fourth Master, are you sure?"

Zhang Fan: "Although we have fewer people, we are better armed and equipped, and the odds of winning are still greater. I just want to nurture the war with war and cultivate an elite army with combat effectiveness. Time is running out! It's already November, Dong Zhuo will abolish the young emperor in September next year, and the princes will ask for Dong in December, there is only one year left, I want to make a difference in the princes to ask Dong, and become famous in a battle, I must train a strong team. ”

"Come on, Fourth Master, we have been supporting you behind the scenes, and you will definitely be able to move towards a bigger stage."

Ding Dong, 殇い mark reward 1888 gold beans

Drunkard 0070 gave you a rocket

……

As soon as the guns rang out, there were 10,000 taels of gold.

Fighting a war is actually fighting logistics, and as the only source of income for the cottage, Zhang Fan can only use his brains on the silver mines of the cottage.

The mined ore is systematically recycled into golden beans, and Zhang Fan uses the golden beans to buy five baht coins that can be used. That's where the money comes in.

It's a pity that the system does not allow the purchase of excavators, cranes, drilling machines, etc., otherwise it is simply not too cool, and the output of the mine must rise sharply. So at the moment there is only one way - gunpowder blasting.

One of the most criticized aspects of mine blasting is the safety issue, which is prone to accidents. However, this is not a big problem for Zhang Fan, even if there is no gunpowder blasting, there are not one or two people who die in accidents every day in the mine, and life is as cheap as grass in troubled times, which is the helplessness of the times.

A week ago, Zhang Fan sent people to forcibly requisition all the craftsmen who could make fireworks and firecrackers in ten villages and eight townships to the mountain, and with the help of a few chemical doctors and sailors, Zhang Fan overturned the formula of black powder.

The system doesn't allow him to buy it, and it doesn't say that he won't make it himself! Do it yourself, have plenty of food and clothing.

China was the first country to invent gunpowder, and black powder officially appeared in the late Tang Dynasty (late 9th century). Gunpowder was invented by ancient alchemists, from the Warring States period to the early Han Dynasty, the emperors and nobles were intoxicated with the fantasy of immortality, and drove some monks and Taoists to refine the elixir, and gradually invented the formula of gunpowder in the refining process.
