"The casualties of this strategy are very small, and the reason why it is the next policy is that if the thieves resist stubbornly, it will take too long and consume too many materials. In addition, there is also a lot of material consumption in the city, and the Fugu County town that is finally obtained may be just an empty city. ”

When Zhang Mengjing heard this, his brows furrowed, and he nodded and commented without hesitation: "Yes, this strategy is indeed the next policy." ”

These two people didn't consider the benefit of fewer casualties at all, and their minds were only about wealth, as if the matter of casualties was just words on their lips, rather than representing fresh lives.

Hong Chengchou saw that he echoed his opinion, and knew that he had changed his opinion of himself at this time, so he immediately announced: "Zhongcheng, the governor will be in office immediately, and he will see the lower officials by name." ”

When Zhang Mengjing heard this, he glanced at him and knew that he was leaving. It was so cold that he could freeze to death, and it was really a shame that he had to rush to Hanzhong from northern Shaanxi. It's really not easy for this grain governor to participate in politics!

Thinking of this, he had a trace of sympathy, and his attitude towards Hong Chengchou was a little better. After all, Hong Chengchou didn't mention the matter of leaving as soon as he came, but first analyzed the war for himself and made suggestions before leaving, this person is good!

As a result, the relationship between the two was a little more harmonious, although it did not reach the level before this war, but the basis for mutual borrowing in the officialdom was already there.

As soon as Hong Chengchou left, Zhang Mengjing saw Sun Xianzu and other generals after thinking about it for a while, first he was furious, and he ruthlessly let out the evil anger in his heart, and then moved Hong Chengchou's countermeasures out.

The generals themselves were very depressed, and they were criticized again, and even a military general with a lower official position was erased by Zhang Mengjing and replaced with his person.

In this context, the generals did not dare to follow Zhongcheng's orders. There can be policies at the top, and countermeasures at the bottom. They were sent out at night. But it's not their elite family, but some thorns who usually don't obey discipline, and they usually want to clean up.

In this cold winter weather, go to the wilderness outside Fugu County to cool off!

On this day, Hu Guang came to the craftsman camp to inspect. As soon as he stepped into the chamber where the carpenter was, he looked at the middle of the house a little speechlessly.

No wonder this first car took so long. I haven't even figured it out yet!

This large wing room has been remodeled, and the things that can be removed inside have long been demolished, so it looks very empty. In the middle of the wing, there is a partial box car, and several carpenters are busy around the car.

When Carpenter Liu saw that it was Hu Guang who entered the door, he hurriedly put down the work in his hand, stepped forward with a smile and said, "Childe, you are here!" ”

He knew that Childe was here to inspect the work, and he was busy turning to one side. Pointing to the car, he said, "Childe, this car is almost uncarved, and it will be completed in about two days." ”

Since the establishment of this artisan battalion, the carpenter's side has not delayed the progress at all because of the more manpower, unlike the blacksmith shop, which has been delayed for a long time and is still returning to the furnace repeatedly. Therefore, Carpenter Liu's self-confidence is good. Thinking about it, it is estimated that Childe will encourage a few words again.

But who knew that Hu Guang looked like he couldn't cry or laugh, shook his head and said, "I said Uncle Liu." Why are you carving this ornament? We don't need this! ”

When Carpenter Liu heard this, he was a little embarrassed, picked up a wooden board from the side and said, "Son, look, don't the cars of the imperial court also have this ornament?" It's pretty majestic! ”

The wooden plate in his hand is part of the partial van in the Ming army car camp, although it is recorded in the "New Book of Ji Xiao" in Hu Guang's hand, but he still picked up the broken partial van abandoned by the Ming army outside the city and imitated it.

I originally thought there was such a product. You don't need to worry about it yourself, and you don't have to think about it.

Hu Guang also knows that this is a common problem of traditional Chinese craftsmen, because they are illiterate, they only know what their ancestors have passed down, and they lack innovation.

He was patient. Kindly said to Carpenter Liu: "Uncle Liu, we are in a hurry and strive to build enough cars before the weather warms up, and it is necessary to transport people, goods, and cannons. If you want to go a long way, you need to have enough cars and be sturdy enough. No matter how vicious you carve this ornament, who can it scare? ”

When Hu Guang said this, Carpenter Liu blushed on the spot, and he was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to reply. The carpenters who were busy carving ornaments on the side also stopped, looking at each other with embarrassed expressions.

Through these days and these craftsmen, whether they are blacksmiths or carpenters, Hu Guang feels a kind of obsolescence of concepts.

Thinking of this, he said to Wang Heizi, who was following him: "Gather all the craftsmen and have a short meeting." ”

Wang Heizi agreed, turned around and walked out. When Carpenter Liu saw it, his face turned dark, and he squatted down with a little remorse.

When Hu Guang saw his action, he knew that he had misunderstood, so he hurriedly squatted down, faced him and said: "Uncle Liu, I have thought of a thing, and I am going to talk to all the craftsmen about it, to improve efficiency and quality, not for you." ”

Seeing Carpenter Liu looking at him puzzled, Hu Guang patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Uncle Liu, don't worry, I'm not interested in holding your criticism meeting!" ”

As soon as this joke came out, everyone laughed in unison. Childe opened a criticism meeting, it was only for the landlord Haoqiang who did all kinds of evil, how could he open a criticism meeting because of a little mistake by Carpenter Liu!

Hu Guang also made such a joke, but he immediately woke up in his heart. When I think of something I shouldn't think, I secretly remind myself in my heart not to go down the old path.

Soon, the craftsmen gathered in this large enough wing, and everyone stood casually, facing the boy standing on the car, and looked up curiously to listen.

"Maybe before, or since ancient times, our craftsmen have not been valued, not only low income, but also disrespected, and it can even be said that in the Ming Dynasty, it was a craftsman for generations, belonging to a lowly profession......

Hearing Hu Guang talk about their profession, every craftsman's heart was a little sad. But what can be done, the ancestors are in this business, and the descendants must be in this business.

"If you think so yourself, you are very wrong! I tell you, in my eyes, craftsmen are much better than ordinary scholars. Wrong, not much better, much better......"

Hearing Hu Guang exalt them like this, the eyes of the craftsmen lit up.

"I'm not talking nonsense, there are no readers, and this world is still the same. But if there were no craftsmen, we would still be primitive people, and we would eat and drink like beasts! ”

Hu Guang looked at many of them with a look of disapproval on their faces, as if he felt that he was exaggerating, and when he was about to say more, the door of the wing room was suddenly pushed open, and a guard who was originally at the door broke in. (To be continued......)
