These two pieces of news are sad and joyful.

Those who are worried, south of Wolong City, there are thieves in the Taihang Mountain Range, repeatedly hijacking business travelers, and they are bold, and the dispatches are becoming more and more frequent, which has caused a great negative impact on the commercial activities in the south of Wolong City.

Only the passage of large caravans in groups can avoid the doom of plunder.

And the gratifying news is that Xiang Ming led 5,000 light cavalry from the northern camp to arrive from the northern camp and will be stationed here to join hands with him to resist the strong enemy.

Receiving the news that Xiang Ming led 5,000 light cavalry to come to support, not only Xu Haifeng was overjoyed, but even Jiang Kongming unexpectedly showed great enthusiasm.

They put down everything they were doing and walked ten miles away.

However, when Xiang Ming rushed over and hugged Xu Haifeng, Jiang Kongming's first words revealed the real reason why he was so excited.

"General Fang, did you bring something?" Jiang Kongming asked eagerly.

He asked, but his eyes were already on the hundred or so carriages behind the army. If it weren't for the politeness, I'm afraid he would have rushed up to inspect it himself.

For this chief military advisor of the Black Flag Army, who was a few years younger than himself, Xiang Ming didn't dare to have the slightest thought of underestimating and offending, he hurriedly replied: "Don't worry, Master Strategist, all the things have been brought." ”

"Hahaha......" Jiang Kongming laughed loudly, then returned to normal, lazily performed a salute on the ground, and said: "General Fang came from afar, so that the students can wait and see." ”

Xiang Ming showed a wry smile on his face and said: "It's not that the last general doesn't want to be fast, but those things are too heavy and difficult to move, and if they come slowly, there is no way to do it." ”

He thought to himself, you are so enthusiastic, it's not because I brought things according to your request, if I come empty-handed, I don't know what kind of face you have.

It's just that in the camp in Northern Xinjiang, Jiang Kongming has already shown his amazing knowledge, and even Fang Lingchen is convinced, and orders all the children of the Fang family to serve him with a teacher's courtesy. It was Xiang Ming who was dissatisfied, and he didn't dare to be rude to him.

At the same time as receiving the official letter that the Ministry of War dispatched Xiang Ming's troops and horses to Lin'an City to support, a letter from Jiang Kongming was also sent to Xiang Ming.

In that letter, Jiang Kongming complimented the Fang family's good life, what loyalty, filial piety, loyalty, loyalty, loyalty, loyalty, etc., in short, the Fang family has become a groundbreaking, the most positive educational significance of the typical five good families in history.

Later, he offered to give way to Ming to come to Lin'an City, and by the way, bring some of the swarthy semi-condensate liquid that was excavated in the east of Daying last time.

Fang Lingchen's uncle and nephew couldn't help but laugh, although they didn't know why this great military master was so interested in this black water that didn't know how to use and exuded a pungent smell, but they still did as they were told.

However, to Xiang Zhi's surprise, the weight of these black waters was much heavier than ordinary clear water, and a carriage could only hold twenty barrels, and no more could be pulled.

In the end, a full hundred carts needed four hundred horses to pull them, which made Fang Lingchen feel very heartbroken.

However, fortunately, at this time, the Fang family's secret letter had already arrived, and Fang Lingchen knew that Xu Haifeng's Black Flag Army was going to face Caesar's invincible army alone in Lin'an City.

No matter how powerful the Black Flag Army is, it is afraid that it will not be able to achieve victory with a difference of ten times or even dozens of times the military strength, so it does not object to the imperial court's order to give reinforcements to the Ming Division.

If it weren't for the fact that they were facing the Huns who had dominated the steppe for hundreds of years, and these nomadic people with the name of wolves were only afraid that their combat effectiveness would be higher than that of the Caesars, Fang Lingchen would have wished he had brought more people.

Until this moment, Fang Lingchen felt more and more deeply that the strength of the Great Han was already stretched.

Jiang Kongming took the lead and walked in front of those carriages, and all the red ocean cavalry were respectful to him along the way, and the reverence in his eyes made people know at a glance that it was from the heart.

These people were all elite troops in the northern battalion, and they all passed the training plan left by Jiang Kongming.

They have made a qualitative leap in physique and combat effectiveness, and they are full of respect for the founders who were able to compose such a whimsical and unprecedented training program.

It's just that Jiang Kongming's attention is not on them at all, and their efforts are all in vain.

Before he walked to the carriage, Xu Haifeng smelled a pungent strange smell.

But Jiang Kongming boarded one of them without care, pulled out his sword, pried open the lid of the barrel, and took a closer look, and suddenly let out a wild laugh like a ghost crying wolf: "Tianxing my lord, Tianxing my lord." ”

Xu Haifeng, who followed closely, immediately turned around, patted his horse and left, muttering to himself: "I don't know him." ”

Back in the city, the two brothers reunited after a long absence, and they had a surprise.

As if he had a treasure, Jiang Kongming commanded the Black Flag sergeants to transport the more than 100 carts to a hidden courtyard specially developed for new weapons.

This is the biggest secret of the Black Flag Army, which is called a research institute by Jiang Kongming.

At least half of the skilled craftsmen of the Su family made the strange things invented by Jiang Kongming here.

These people have lost their personal freedom since they entered the research institute, and although they enjoy the most luxurious treatment in the world, they have never had contact with the outside world again. It's as if the world has evaporated, disappearing from this world without a trace.

Of course, Su Chunwei knew about this matter, but after a detailed discussion with Jiang Kongming, he never asked about it again.

Xu Haifeng was puzzled by this, you must know that even if these people are in the Su family, they are also top talents who are hard to find, why did he let go so easily.

It wasn't until Jiang Kongming handed him a scroll and opened it to see what it was about.

In this scroll, some delicate tools are depicted, even the Zhuge Divine Crossbow is depicted on it.

With Su Chunwei's eyesight, he naturally knew the value of it, and he weighed it again and again, knowing that these things were worth a lot. The craftsmen are gone, and the Su family has its own set of methods that can cultivate another batch within a few years.

But those who can create these things must be peerless geniuses, Jiang Kongming used these things to exchange for that group of craftsmen, and the Su family did not suffer in the slightest.

Now that Xiang Ming and a large number of trained soldiers have arrived, Xu Haifeng can fully carry out the next step.

In order to cultivate the next generation of brave and warlike soldiers, Jiang Kongming put forward the idea of establishing a military academy.

He once asked Xu Haifeng whether he wanted the prestige of his life, or whether he wanted to leave more capital for future generations.

Xu Haifeng was puzzled, and Jiang Kongming said bluntly: "If the lord is only trying to be famous in this world, then he can do his best to expand the blood wine warriors, with their fearless death and abilities far beyond ordinary people, they will definitely be invincible in the world." It's just that once the lord says that the crane will return to the west, then your children and grandchildren will never be able to regain the reputation of the Black Flag Army. ”

Xu Haifeng understood what he meant and asked him how to solve it.

Jiang Kongming proposed the method of establishing a military academy, but what surprised Xu Haifeng was that when Jiang Kongming chose the instructors of the military academy, he actually excluded Xiang Ming's subordinates with all his might, and would rather lack manpower for the time being than allow him to gain a foothold in it.

At this time, the military school was like a recruit battalion that was a hundred times stricter. In addition to various physical training, it also teaches how to lead troops on the march and set up formations and other skills that junior officers must master. Jiang Kongming is the only one who can summarize this aspect and start teaching apprenticeship.

Such high-intensity training is naturally not something that everyone can withstand and pass.

As soon as Xu Haifeng arrived in Wolong City, he began the two tasks of recruitment and conscription. Until now, thousands of recruits have formed an army, counting the original city guards, and the army under his command has as many as 10,000 people in addition to the Black Flag Army.

These members of the ordinary army have been selected through layers of selection, and those who can bear hardships and stand hard work, and are flexible and intelligent to enter the military academy to study. By the time they passed the intensive training at the military academy and came out, they were already qualified soldiers.

These people returned to the unit and served as the commander of 10 or even 100 people, and with the existence of these systematically trained junior officers, the combat effectiveness of the unit was qualitatively improved.

As soon as Jiang Kongming's method was proposed, he let Xiang Ming high-five.

As a high-ranking general, what he hopes most is to be able to command the troops like an arm, and those junior officers in the past were uneven, unless they have been running in for many years, they will not want to reach such a state.

And once there are a large number of casualties in the troops, the chain of command immediately collapses, and it will take years to restore the original appearance.

However, once the military academy is established at this time, it will be able to provide a steady stream of junior officers for the troops, and since they are in the same place, they know each other well, so there is naturally no problem in cooperating.

That is, as long as there are enough soldiers, they will quickly develop combat effectiveness, and there will be no need to go through a long run-in when understanding the orders of the commander.

Once he thought of this, Xiang Ming couldn't help but sigh, and he respected Jiang Kongming even more.

It's just that although he didn't care about Jiang Kongming's refusal of his subordinates to enter the military academy as instructors on the surface, he had something else in his heart.

In addition, in the military academy, Jiang Kongming also held a short-term training course. This is specially prepared for the logistics department.

At this time, when the logistics department kept accounts, they used traditional Chinese characters, which made it complicated and chaotic to calculate.

So Jiang Kongming deliberately introduced Arabic numerals and ninety-nine addition, subtraction, multiplication and division tables.

This change brought a great shock to Tong Yi, these things are not complicated, as long as a person with a little bit of brains can quickly grasp it. And when recorded, it is concise and clear. There is no longer a need to look at a ledger as if you were reading a book from heaven.

This measure greatly simplified the tedious work of the logistics department, Tong Yiyi saw the mystery and ordered all the officials of the logistics department to study, although they were not used to it at first, but after a long time, they tasted the sweetness of it, and since then they have become a staunch supporter of change.
