When Mao Fushou shouted, Yu Qian was in the white crane study.

The excuse is to visit the sick, but in fact it is to come to negotiate, not for anything else, the material determines the tactics, and the armament determines the strategy. Before determining the armaments and materials, Yu Qian would not set his tactics lightly.

Mao Fushou was shouting, even if he couldn't hear the sound, Yu Qian knew who was coming just by the words that came.

The only person who dares to shout like this is Mao Fushou, the commander of Henan Dusidu, the black-faced madman known as Mao Yide, is absolutely the same as the fierce Zhang Fei in the book, ruthless enough, crazy enough, and thick and fine, when he is not a marshal but definitely a super-first-class general, he can train a strong army no matter where he is.

This is also one of the reasons why the military department still protects him after making several big mistakes.

Soon, someone came over to report: "Lord Yu, Lord Bai." When the Henan army arrived, they only had their clothes and the horses of each battalion. The dry food on his body was only enough for the road, and the soybeans and forage for the horses were the same. Right now, just outside the city, all the dry food left by 30,000 people is less than 10 catties, and the soybeans and forage of more than 50,000 horses are not enough for 100 horses to eat for a day. There is nothing left. ”

"It's always calculated so well, and the entire Ming Dynasty is the most proficient commander!" Yu Qian smiled and said a word to Bai Minghe.

"Good general, definitely a good general!"

Bai Minghe also responded, yes, such a general is definitely a good general. And there are at least five generals who can reach this level in the Ming Dynasty. When it comes to the ability to fight, Bai Fu is definitely not as good as these people. Because Bai Fu has many people who have not really been in the war, even if he is a famous general, after a famous teacher, he does not have enough actual combat experience, and he still can't compare with these people.

"Let's get out of your library first, and go back to the military department to post the account!" Yu Qian is very clear. Even if Mao Fushou is punished, he can't let these people starve first.

Bai Minghe took up the pen and wrote a document, and then wrote another one and pushed it in front of Yu Qian.

Yu Qian smiled: "Okay, according to your words." ”

Next is the scene in front of the mansion, Bai Hong walked outside the door with the document in his hand, and handed over the first document first: "General Mao." My young master said that with this document, you can pick up the goods directly from the Fengtai military warehouse in the west of the city. ”

Mao Fushou took the document and opened it, which said 3,000 pigs, 30,000 stones of rice, 30,000 catties of cabbage, 30,000 catties of radish, and 3 quintals of salt. 30,000 people camped according to the military standards, 30,000 military uniforms and bedding according to the military standards, camping tools are available, and there are no ordnance!

There is no ordnance, only food. Let's let my soldiers eat a hot breath first.

Mao Fushou was about to give this document to his adjutant, but Bai Hong said: "General, please wait a minute, sign this second document first, and that one can take effect." Because there are no tokens. No one can come close to Fengtai Okura. ”

The other instrument, the rest is an IOU. Ninety thousand taels of silver!

"This thing is worth ninety thousand taels of silver? Let Lao Tzu write an IOU ......" Mao Fushou wanted to roar, but when he thought about it, this kid just came to pass the word, and it was useless to yell at him, but he glared at Bai Hong and planned to overwhelm Bai Hong with momentum. Bai Hong is not afraid, he has seen a lot of murderers around Bai Minghe, and they definitely don't dare to really beat themselves.

Bai Pet continued: "The food is worth 30,000 taels, and it is definitely worth it. Military uniforms, futons, generals, you will understand when you see them. Those are much more expensive on the market than they actually give you. Every soldier is from the inside out, from top to small, even if there is no ordnance. It is also a set of thirty-six items, in addition to clothes, the large one has a water bottle and an emergency medicine kit, and the small one has a sewing kit. ”

Mao Fushou signed his name and used a seal.

But anyway, it's also taking someone else's stuff. He originally planned to exchange his military exploits for this silver.

At the end, Mao Fushou asked again: "What about the ordnance?" ”

"My young master said, it depends on your guts. A battalion of 4,000 soldiers had at least 8,000 taels of silver in suit ordnance, and up to 160,000 taels of suit ordnance. Of course. There are also 400,000 taels of elite Tiger Ben legendary-level ordnance. The thirteen towns of Beifang, the most daring at the moment, only asked for 80,000 taels of set ordnance, and there were only two battalions, most of which were 20,000 taels of silver and one battalion of ordnance. ”

...... hiss, Mao Fushou gasped.

400,000 taels is a soldier with 100,000 taels of silver draped on his body.

In Daming, one hundred catties of iron is three taels of silver, and one hundred catties of stainless steel is seven taels of silver. Wrought iron inlaid with steel, the cost is almost one or two silver five, now the army has begun to replace the pure steel knife, this kind of knife cost is more expensive, plus labor and various transportation costs, one or two silver can also make two.

Of course, this is not the price for takeaways.

But there should be no increase in the price of the army's internal settlement, and a musket is more than one tael of silver, and it is impossible to calculate a soldier for one hundred taels.

"My young master said that the general can enter the mansion to talk about it after he thinks about it!"

Mao Fushou gave the paperwork for receiving the materials to his subordinates, and he didn't care whether the main gate or the small side door, he only thought about how this battalion of 400,000 taels of your white name crane was organized.

Not convinced?

Baifu, Dongchang, and Haisi all know a sentence even if they are grooms, and we specialize in all kinds of dissatisfaction.

Mao Fushou entered the mansion, Yu Qian and Bai Minghe naturally had to greet him, as for how could a battalion be 400,000 taels of silver equipment cost, Bai Minghe did not answer and took Mao Fushou directly to the middle courtyard, and then entered a well-guarded room.

It wasn't Bai Minghe who spoke, but Yu Qian.

"Four thousand, plus auxiliaries is five thousand. High-quality steel knives, 1,000 long knives, 5,000 short knives. That is, the soldiers are not worthy of the sword. But each man had a long musket, a short musket, and ten grenades. Then, there were 40 artillery pieces and 80 assault guns, wearing silk cotton porcelain plate armor. ”

"That's all?" Mao Fushou still thinks that these are not worth 400,000 taels.

Yu Qian picked up a spear on the shelf: "This gun doesn't need a fire rope, and the effective killing distance is one hundred steps (one hundred and fifty meters)." This ...... is used" Yu Qian picked up a small paper tube: "Directly reload ammunition, the rate of fire is more than three times faster than the original arquebus." This bullet is five cents, and two million bullets are allocated, so you can calculate the price. ”

"So much!" Mao Fushou said in his heart, one person is 500 rounds.

"If you don't train strictly, you will be allowed to use this musket as a burning stick. Think about it, how to use cavalry muskets, musket combos after a surprise attack are a very effective tactic, and the lethality of dense bullets to enemy soldiers. A salvo is twenty taels of silver, and if a soldier trains a hundred rounds of ammunition, you will lose two thousand taels of silver. ”

It's expensive, it's not a war, it's a throwing of silver.

"This short gun ......" Yu Qian said again, the short gun is a single-shot pistol, if the enemy has a chance to approach, pick up the gun and give it to the enemy, this thing suddenly shoots much blacker than a sword, and it can definitely kill people. It's no wonder that musketeers don't deserve melee weapons, so they are here to do the trick.

The grenade, this thing can actually be understood as a firecracker in later generations, and it needs to be lit before it can be thrown out.

As for how it can be the same as the grenades of later generations, it is estimated that it will not be studied in a few years.

"This pig iron grenade, one is a hundred dollars. You can blast as far as you can throw. Of course, there are also people who have researched throwing it with a throwing belt, which can be thrown up to 300 steps, or even 400 steps away. You can also throw it with your arm strength, and you can blow up the enemy in front of you thirty or fifty paces, and one can blow up everyone within five steps. ”

Yu Qian introduced them one by one, and Mao Fushou listened to the cold sweat.

This is definitely not a war, even if it is a copper coin to smash people, it is not such a waste, this is definitely smashing with silver beans.

"Besides, this artillery is equipped with the latest type of artillery, in addition to solid pig iron bullets, there are also 10,000 iron balls of scattered bullets. and the price is fifteen taels of silver a shot, and the blossom thunder is broken. Fifty taels of silver a shot, ghost fire soul chasing bomb. One hundred taels of silver for a ......" Yu Qian said this, looking at Mao Fushou's stunned expression, his tone changed: "This one hundred taels of silver for a shot cannot be distributed in large quantities at the moment, it is a mountain-piercing armor-piercing bullet that can penetrate dozens of layers of three-foot-thick wooden planks tightly pressed together!" ”

It's expensive, one hundred taels of silver is sixty or seventy thousand yuan in the future.

However, the craftsmanship of the Ming Dynasty was too low, and all the special shells were handmade except for solid shells. The production of zuò is slow, the cost is high, and it is still a real yàn room product at the moment. The cost may be reduced after mass production, but if you want mass production, Bai Minghe doesn't know how many years it will take to work hard.

White phosphorus bombs are a taboo weapon in modern times because they are too cruel.

But in the Ming Dynasty, this thing was definitely the darkest weapon as an incendiary bomb, and it took three skilled craftsmen four or five days of very careful work to make one. Moreover, there are ten teams in each workshop, and there are five safety officers, so I am afraid that white phosphorus will be dangerous.

There were 10 groups of 30 craftsmen who made the cannonballs.

The wages of these people are so high that the faint of heart are afraid to let them enter the workshop.

Yu Qian named it, the Ghost Fire Soul Chasing Bomb, because this fire can't be extinguished is really terrifying. If you stick a little sticky, you will definitely die, and the total stock of the white crane is only more than a hundred.

For a person, the number of shells is already a lot, but for a country's army to fight abroad, the number of more than 100 shells is pitiful, and it can only be used to change the situation of the war with a few rounds at a special juncture.

Mao Fushou calculated another account.

This battalion of men cost 400,000 taels of silver for ordnance. Then their battalion needs to kill 10,000 thorns to be enough to eat and drink. The question now is whether there are so many Watts for them to kill. Unless it is a full-scale war against the Varspurs, a large-scale corps battle.

No wonder, only a few elite battalions were allocated to the thirteen towns in the northern defense, and the rest were still using ordinary weapons, for fear that the military merits would not be able to return the money for ordnance after the war in the future.

It's not easy to owe the white crane's silver!

"Would you like to try the charm of top-of-the-line equipment?" The white crane finally spoke.

Mao Fushou shook his head weakly, feeding such a battalion can no longer be described as a miracle, this thing still needs fucking maintenance costs, so this can only be described as a dream. (To be continued......)

Just woke up!!
