readx;

After the meritorious deeds were rewarded, Tang Ling handed over the leadership of the meeting to Shangguan Xiu. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info For military arrangements, Tang Ling is a layman, and Shangguan Xiu is the leader, so she is more suitable.

Shangguan Xiu, who was sitting next to Tang Ling, stood up, and he had the map of Beijun hung on the wall. He walked to the map, pointed to Mulun City in the northwest of Bei County, and said: "Being allowed to garrison in Mulun City is one of the important achievements of our country in this national war. Mulun City is located at the junction of Beijun, Besa and Duki, and its geographical location is very important, our army occupies here, which can deter Besa in the north and Duki in the west, so that our country can take the initiative against Besa and Ningnan people from now on. Therefore, our garrison in Mulun City is extremely important, and the generals think that which legion should be the most suitable to be stationed in Mulun City?"

Shangguan Xiu's military rank is the general after the wind country, in the wind army, of course, his military rank is not the highest, there are also great generals in front of him, left generals, right generals and former generals, even if Wu Peng and Yu Longzi are not there, there are also right generals Sheng Zhai and former generals Yuan Hao in front of Shangguan Xiu.

It's just that Shangguan Xiu's prestige in the wind army is extremely high, especially after this national war, Shangguan Xiu's prestige has reached its peak in the wind army, and no one can reach it, and now Shangguan Xiu is presiding over the highest-level military meeting of the wind country, but no one has complaints and criticism, including Sheng Zhai and Yuan Hao, whose military ranks are above Shangguan Xiu.

After listening to his words, the people present were full of discussions. It is not a simple errand to garrison Mulun City, Mulun City is the territory of Besa, and your own garrison there must be surrounded by crises, and if you are not careful, you may fall into a dangerous situation from which you will never recover.

Seeing that the corps commanders present were only discussing with each other, but no one stood up to ask for help, Shangguan Xiu asked: "If no one recommends themselves, then Your Majesty will have to directly appoint the garrison." As he spoke, Shangguan Xiu turned his head to look at Tang Ling.

Tang Ling, who thought that she had nothing to do, didn't expect Shangguan Xiu to suddenly throw the matter of the garrison of Mulun City to herself, which legion is suitable for garrisoning in Mulun City, she really didn't know, she pondered for a moment, she asked: "Shangguan Aiqing has a suitable candidate?"

Shangguan Xiu rubbed his chin, pretended to think about it, and said, "I think, let the fifteenth legion be stationed in Mulun City!"

The fifteenth army was the third army of the Zhenjun Army headed by Hu Chong.

Many of the Feng Army generals present were afraid that Shangguan Xiu would throw this drudgery on their heads, and they drooped their heads one by one, not even daring to raise their heads, but even if they were scrambling to go to Mulun City to garrison, Shangguan Xiu might not agree.

The garrison of Mulun City is so important, how can any legion go there? Of course, Shangguan Xiu has to choose the legion he trusts the most to be stationed in Mulun City.

The Third Legion of the Zhenjun Army suffered few casualties in the national war, and Hu Chong was quick and agile and had a strong ability to adapt to changes, so in Shangguan Xiu's mind, Hu Chong and his Third Legion were the best candidates to be stationed in Mulun City.

It's just that if Shangguan Xiu directly decided this matter, it seems that he has the power to lean towards the government and the opposition, acting arbitrarily, and completely emptying Tang Ling's power, so he raised this matter in public, discussed it with the generals, and handed over the final decision to Tang Ling.

As a minister, and a high-powered minister, it is not so easy to do, and all factors have to be taken into account.

Hearing that Shangguan Xiu did not choose himself, but handed over the matter to the Zhenjun Army, those generals who were afraid to go to Mulun City as a garrison all breathed a sigh of relief and echoed one after another: "Let the Southwest Group Army be stationed in Mulun City, it is more appropriate, in this national war, the Southwest Group Army is famous in Besa, and the Besa people talk about the Southwest Group Army, all of them are discolored, and there is no army more suitable for being stationed in Mulun City than the Southwest Group Army." ”

The corners of Shangguan Xiu's mouth raised slightly, as if he was smiling, he turned his head to look at Tang Ling and asked, "What does Your Majesty think?"

Let the Zhenjun army be stationed in Mulun City, Tang Ling was indeed more relieved, she didn't think about it, nodded and said: "This matter is just decided by Shangguan Aiqing." ”

Shangguan Xiu was no longer polite, and Zhengse said: "Since all the generals have no objections, then the matter is decided, General Hu will command the fifteenth army and garrison Mulun City!"

"The last general obeys!" Hu Chong, who was at the conference table, stood up and intervened to give a salute.

As soon as he finished speaking, Nie Zhen and Jiang Leopard stood up in unison, and said in unison: "My lord, the last general is also willing to garrison Mulun City!"

Shangguan Xiu glanced at the two of them with a smile, waved his hand and said: "In the national war, the casualties of the seventh and tenth legions are not small, and now it is not suitable to be a garrison, so it is necessary to rest and recuperate in the country!"

"But ......"

"Sit down!" Shangguan Xiu waved his hand to the two of them.

Nie Zhen and Jiang Leopard glanced at each other, and finally sat back in their chairs helplessly. Shangguan Xiu said: "In addition, there is another matter that needs to be discussed with the generals, before the national war, Ningnan ceded Pingguan to our country, Pingguan is the southern gateway of Ningnan, and its strategic value is not inferior to Mulun City, and our country needs to set up a garrison to Pingguan as soon as possible." ”

Stationed in Pingguan, the generals of the Wind Army have nothing to fear, and the Wind Army is more willing to fight with the Ningnan people than the Besa people. This time, the people who took the initiative to invite Ying were very enthusiastic, and the generals got up one after another, expressing their willingness to lead the army to garrison Pingguan. In the end, Shangguan Xiu decided to have the Fifth Army stationed in Pingguan.

After discussing all these border defense matters, the meeting basically came to an end, and the atmosphere in the venue gradually became relaxed. When Tang Ling left, the generals present had no worries, and the noise in the venue became louder and louder.

The commanders of the various corps gathered around Shangguan Xiu and said in a gossipy voice: "Lord Shangguan, I heard that the firearms and equipment of the Southwest Group Army have been replaced, I don't know, when will it be our army's turn?"

This is the main concern of the legion commanders.

At present, there are many places where the wind country has the ability to manufacture firearms, and the firearms do not have much complex internal structure, and the manufacturing principle is very simple, but the places that can mass-produce firearms on a large scale are only Zhenjun, and only the firearms produced by Zhenjun are the standard equipment of the Feng Army, and the firearms produced in other places are all miscellaneous brands, not only the quality is not guaranteed, but also the specifications are different from the Zhenjun firearms, which cannot be mixed, and naturally cannot be equipped into the troops of the regular army.

The firearms of the Zhenjun Army are being updated, and the firearms have become more suitable for use in actual combat, and they have also begun to put into use paper shell bullets, the speed of shooting has been greatly improved, and the overall combat strength of the whole army has also completed a qualitative leap.

But the Zhenjun Army is Zhenjun's own son, and the weapons and equipment produced by Zhenjun will of course be delivered to the Zhenjun Army first, and others will only look at it. Now that Shangguan Xiu is present, people have finally found the master who can complain, and you and I will tell you how passive your own army has fallen into in the battle with the Besa army because of its inferior equipment.

If you lose because your skills are not as good as others, you deserve it, if you lose because your weapons and equipment are not as good as people, it is indeed very frustrating, Shangguan Xiu can understand the eagerness of the commanders of various armies, but there are some things, he can't help it.

Zhenjun can only directly send weapons and equipment to the Zhenjun army, and cannot do this to other legions. The weapons and equipment can only be transported to the imperial court first, and then the imperial court will plan and distribute them to individual regiments.

If Zhenjun directly delivered weapons to various legions, then who would Zhenjun ask for money? The production of firearms, artillery, and ammunition is not cost-free, and even if Zhenjun has mountains of gold and silver, it will not be able to meet the needs of so many wind troops.

Looking around at the people around him, Shangguan Xiu smiled bitterly: "Zhenjun has already delivered improved weapons and ammunition to the imperial court, as for when the imperial court will distribute it, it is up to the ministers of the court and the central government to decide, and it is not under my control." ”

"The civil officials and ministers are doing things, and Lord Shangguan is not unaware, but he can delay it, and when they distribute all the weapons and equipment, it is estimated that the weapons and equipment of the Southwest Group Army will begin to be replaced with new ones. ”

It is not impossible, with the full rise of firearms, all countries are actively carrying out the improvement, improvement and research and development of weapons and equipment, firearms science and technology, can be described as changing with each passing day, the first sword used by the wind people on the battlefield, and the earliest paper shell bullet used by the Besa people on the battlefield, is a living example.

"Generals, all I can do is to urge the ministers of the DPRK and China to distribute weapons and equipment as soon as possible, but as for the specific time when they will be distributed, I really don't dare to make a guarantee. Shangguan Xiu said honestly.

The three giants of the court, Cai Xiao, Song Sheng and Qiu Yi, are the three hob meat, in addition to interests or interests in their eyes, now Shangguan Xiu can't move the three of them, and there is no good way to take them.

"Lord Shangguan, I heard that Zhenjun has now produced a spirit musket!" Pang Fei, the commander of the Fifth Legion, said with a smile on his face: "This time, my Fifth Army is going to Pingguan to station, directly facing the Ningnan people, the good luck and the evil are unknown, life and death are uncertain, if Lord Shangguan can fund some spirit muskets, the combat power of our army will inevitably be greatly improved, and there is no need to be afraid of the Ningnan people outside the pass!"

Hearing his words, people's eyes lit up, and they all looked at Shangguan Xiu.

The spirit spear is also one of the spirit weapons, for the spirit cultivator, it is not difficult to use, you can easily get started after a few days of practice, and if there are so many spirit spear shooters in a legion, the deterrent effect on the enemy army is also great.

Shangguan Xiu sneered, looked at Pang Fei, and said, "I said that General Pang's news is well-informed enough, and the spirit musket has just been transported from Zhenjun to the army, and you, General Pang, have heard the rumors." ”

Pang Fei laughed embarrassedly, looked at the people around him again, and argued: "Not only me, Lord Shangguan can ask the generals present that none of them are keeping an eye on the movements of the Zhenjun Army now, the Zhenjun Army has a little trouble, we all know." ”

Shangguan Xiu was amused by his words, and after a moment of silence, he restrained his smile and said: "The production of spiritual muskets requires extremely high manufacturing technology, and it is not so easy to produce, this time, there are only twenty spiritual muskets transported by Zhenjun. Now that General Pang has opened his mouth, I can't refuse, how about I divide five branches and give them to you?"

When Pang Fei heard this, his face turned upright, he clenched his fists, bowed to the ground, and said: "Thank you for your kindness, Lord Shangguan's kindness, Pang will definitely remember it, and in the future, adults will need to use my Pang Mou's status, although it is a reminder that Pang Mou is stuck in both ribs, and it is his responsibility to do so!"
