"King Qiong is polite, it should be, you can't eat and drink for nothing, the big guy has to do things."

"If there is anything, just arrange it for us, we will definitely do it for you."

Huang Tiesheng hurriedly said with a smile.

It is inevitable to arrange things for them, and it is impossible to bring them from the imperial capital to Qiongzhou, it is impossible to just bring them to play, there must be a place where they are needed, and Zhu Zi will bring them all the way over.

Since they have arrived in Qiongzhou, it is natural to give full play to their value, and they are all useful people.

"Then I'll leave it to you, and in seven days, I'll wait for your good news."

"You just stay here, you don't have to follow us."

"Let's go, go to the barracks."

After glancing at Huang Tiesheng and the firearms expert, Zhu Zi also did not continue to ink here.

The next thing is to make iron and make bullets, and make arquebuses, both of which involve more professional things, and it is useless for him to stay here, and it is also a waste of time.

"Yes."

Immediately afterwards, the people on both sides separated, Zhu Zi and Sang Zhao went to the barracks together, and Wang Zhi and Huang Tiesheng and other blacksmiths continued to stay in the firearms factory.

Huang Tiesheng them, to forge, and Wang Zhi, will be arranged for them, as well as the transportation of iron ore and the like, he has to worry about it, there are still a lot of things to do, Zhu Zi and Sang Zhao can go, but Wang Zhi can't go, these have to be done by Wang Zhi.

Most of the control of resources is in charge of Wang Zhi, and the others Zhu Zi is not at ease, so he can only hand it over to Wang Zhi.

........

Qiongzhou military camp.

After half a year, Zhu Zi came outside the barracks again.

For such a long time, the changes in the barracks are still not small, and the most intuitive change is that the barracks have expanded, which is much larger than before.

The two came to the gate of the barracks, and the soldiers at the gate were alert when they saw someone approaching in the distance.

"General."

It wasn't until they saw who it was that the soldiers at the door relaxed their vigilance.

"Haven't you seen Your Highness yet?"

Sang Zhao frowned and hurriedly said.

"I've seen Your Highness!"

When the dozens of soldiers at the door heard this, their faces suddenly changed, and they hurriedly said respectfully.

There is only one person in Qiongzhou who can make the general call His Royal Highness, and that is Zhu Zi, the king of Qiong, but he didn't expect that they would be able to see the true face of Zhu Zi, the king of Qiong, in the military camp.

"These people, all recruits, don't know you."

Sang Zhao looked at Zhu Zi on the side and explained.

After returning to Qiongzhou from Dongfan, the first thing was to recruit troops, leaving 5,000 soldiers in Dongfan, and the strength of Qiongzhou was less, so there was no way, so they could only recruit soldiers on a large scale, and they had to recruit soldiers every month, and there were more and more new soldiers.

As soon as there were many recruits, they took the place of veterans.

"Excuse me, open the door."

Looking at the recruits in front of him, Zhu Zi didn't feel a little surprised.

It won't be long before the next batch of recruits is called up, and they are veterans.

"Yes."

The door of the barracks was immediately opened.

Zhu Zi and Sang Zhao also walked directly into the barracks, and as soon as they walked in, they could see that many people were training inside.

"Now in Qiongzhou, how many people are in the army?"

As soon as he walked into the barracks and saw batch after batch of troops, Zhu Zi also asked curiously.

It's been so long, there should be a lot of people, and I heard Wang Zhi say that the population of Qiongzhou has increased a lot recently, and it will definitely be of great help to the conscription.

"With the latest conscription of 2,000 soldiers, there are now a total of 13,000 soldiers in Qiongzhou."

Sang Zhao opened his mouth without hesitation, and said without hesitation at all.

After each conscription, he would count the number of people, in order to wait for today, and report to Zhu Zi.

More than 10,000 soldiers are unprecedentedly powerful in Qiongzhou, Qiongzhou has been developing for so many years, and the military strength has never been so strong, even if he wanted to recruit soldiers before, he didn't have that ability, and he couldn't afford to raise too many troops at all, but now it's different, he can recruit unscrupulously, and he doesn't have to be afraid of so much at all.

"Yes, didn't the firearms expert say that more than 800 arquebuses have all been put into training, take me to see how the training is doing."

Zhu Zi nodded with great satisfaction, the development of the military camp is not bad, there are more than 10,000 people, which is completely enough.

What he relates to the most is the training of arquebuses, arquebuses are sharp weapons in war, and only by being able to use arquebuses well can they gain an advantage in war.

"You come with me."

Sang Zhao agreed, took Zhu Zi, and walked in one direction.

The two of them came to a sandy area, which was fenced off, and as soon as they arrived, they could hear the rumbling sound.

As soon as Zhu Zi heard it, he could hear it, this was the sound of the arquebus being fired, he had fired the arquebus with his own hands before, and he could still hear it.

"Don't speak, open the door."

The soldiers in front of him, after seeing Zhu Zi and them, just wanted to speak, but Zhu Zi stopped them.

When the soldier heard this, he nodded hurriedly and opened the door carefully.

The people inside didn't notice it at all, and someone outside came in, and they were still training on their own.

"These people are very familiar, they are from Dongfan."

Zhu Zi glanced at the soldiers trained inside, and felt very familiar, as if he had seen it before, but his impression was not too deep.

"Yes, these people are veterans, veterans who have come back, some of them have been asked to train new soldiers, and some of them have been allowed to practice guns."

"A total of 3,000 people practice guns, and more than 800 arquebuses are practiced in turns, and they are already very proficient, and they can accurately hit the target, which is more accurate than a bow and crossbow."

Sang Zhao nodded and replied.

The number of arquebuses is not much, and they can only be practiced in turns, but fortunately, everyone can practice several times a day, and over time, they all slowly become proficient.

"The crosshairs are good, let's take a look."

Zhu Zi's eyes have been on the soldiers and targets in front of them, the accuracy of the soldiers in the round just now is not bad, only a few people fell on the target, and the rest of the people all hit the target, although some of them hit the target, but they still hit the target, and there are people with high crosshairs, who hit the center of the target directly.

Immediately afterwards, after the first round, a group of people came up, and the result was still similar to the beginning, and the crosshairs were still very high.

It wasn't until the third round of people came up that there was a change, and half of the people were empty, these people were all fresh faces, and the people Zhu Zi had never seen should be the so-called recruits.

"Is that how it hits? Can't even hold an arquebus and want to hit the target? ”

Zhu Zi looked at it from behind, and he was angry, and walked forward directly and reprimanded.
