On the fifth day of the first month of September, outside the city of Wangjiazhuang Baihusuobao, a huge convoy composed of dozens of large vehicles was leaving the city from the south gate and moving along the official road, accompanied by a sentry of the front camp of the new army, and went on the road with the convoy.

Tan Xiaoda and Xu Le walked side by side, in front of them were carts loaded with many materials, and a large number of craftsmen from the surrounding armor supervision office also went out of the city, carrying large bags of luggage, gathering on both sides of the official road to wait.

Tan Xiaoda asked Zhao Yan, the manager of the gunpowder workshop, to bring a coil, handed it to Xu Le and said: "This time, the lord ordered the military armor supervision office to be moved to the Qianhu office in front of Aoshan Weifu Mountain, and you and I will not be able to see each other every day." We are both craftsmen, and we have become friends in the past two years, and I feel very uncomfortable when you leave. This bit of silver is a little bit of heart for me and Steward Zhao and Steward Cui, and Director Xu will bring it, and I will come back often in the future, and we will have a good time! ”

Xu Le took over the entanglement, and felt very uncomfortable, Liu Yan ordered that he and the eight or nine hundred craftsmen and apprentices of the Armor Supervision Office were busy, and it took nearly a month to complete the relocation preparations of the Armor Supervision Office, and all the equipment, iron, materials, and inventory were counted and sealed one by one, and registered to prevent omissions.

Today is the day of the official relocation of the Armor Supervision Office, the new Xiahe Village Qianqian Household Defense Officer, the new army front battalion Zuo Qianqian General Wei Han specially brought a sentry to escort it, and hired dozens of carts, as well as more than 100 people, to load all the belongings of the Armor Supervision Office.

I saw Xu Le wrap the plate away, clasped his fists and said: "Chief Tan, Steward Cui, Steward Zhao, our green mountains do not change the green water for a long time, although I have arrived in Aoshanwei, I am still a subordinate of the guerrilla adult, we have the opportunity to meet in the future, and there will be a period later!" ”

"There will be a date later!"

"There will be a date later!"

Cui Mingyuan, the manager of the firearms workshop, handed over a bag of luggage to Xu Le, and then Tan Xiaoda and a few people watched Xu Le get into the carriage.

At the same time, hundreds of craftsmen and apprentices from the Armor Supervision Office also began to board the car, and under the arrangement of the new army officers and soldiers, more than 20 people rode in a carriage, and Wei Han hired more than 30 carts just to transport the belongings of the Armor Supervision Office, and Wei Han hired nearly 50 carts to transport these craftsmen and apprentices.

On the official road, more than 80 large cars lined up, very spectacular, under the escort of more than 160 officers and men of the new army at a sentry, the large group of men and horses embarked on a journey, rushing towards the Qianhu in front of Aoshan Weifu Mountain.

Tan Xiaoda, Zhao Yan, Cui Mingyuan, and Wei Han looked at Xu Le, who was standing on the carriage and kept waving goodbye, as well as many craftsmen, and they were very reluctant in their hearts. It wasn't until the convoy went far away and couldn't see Xu Le clearly in the car that a few people were ready to go back.

"This transfer has to defend Lord Wei."

Wei Han said with a smile: "The guerrilla master has an order, I don't dare to disobey." Besides, these are all my business, so you don't have to be polite. ”

Then Tan Xiaoda said to Zhao Yan and Cui Mingyuan: "At present, the original site of the Armor Supervision Office has been vacated, and the two of you have worked hard in the past few days, and our Firearms Supervision Office will also be reorganized." After the rectification in the past few days, it is better to resume production as soon as possible. ”

Zhao Yan and Cui Mingyuan clasped their fists together and said, "Obey!" ”

Liu Yan saw that Zhang Youxun, the general of the Jimo Battalion, and others had not moved, so he also put his mind at ease, and made a decision after inspecting all the places in front of Xiahe Village.

Liu Yan ordered the construction of a new military base in the Qianhu of Fushan in Aoshanwei, and then relocated the Armor Supervision Office as a whole. In the future, Wangjiazhuang will be used as a firearms military base, and Fushan Qianqian City will be used as a military base.

In this way, it will not only be possible to at least double the production of armaments, but also to disperse the deployment of important bases, killing two birds with one stone.

Here, Wei Han and Tan Xiaoda and others exchanged a few more words, and then returned directly to the Qianqian Household Office in Xiahe Village, and after Tan Xiaoda and others said goodbye to Wei Han, they immediately returned to Wangjiazhuang Fort.

After discussion, the three finally decided that the gunpowder workshop of the Firearms Supervision Office would not be moved, and the firearms workshop would be relocated to the original site of the Armor Supervision Office.

On the same day, Tan Xiaoda organized the relocation of manpower, even if the relocation distance of the firearms workshop was very close, Tan Xiaoda also hired more than 200 people in Wangjiazhuang for this purpose, and it took two full days to complete the relocation of the firearms workshop.

Later, Tan Xiaoda and others rushed to the bank of the Nanhe River, and the Armor Supervision Office also built a dam at the new site of the Qianhu Office in front of Fushan, and built a number of 200 hydraulic drilling machines, so the hydraulic drilling machines that originally belonged to the Armor Supervision Office were not transported away, and were directly left to the Firearms Supervision Office. 33

Tan Xiaoda said to Cui Mingyuan: "Counting the hydraulic drilling machines built in the future, there are a total of two hundred and fifty pieces, if it is fully produced, the monthly output of bird guns will reach 14,000 rods, and more than 20 artillery pieces can be cast, which is enough to meet the requirements of the guerrilla masters." ”

Cui Mingyuan said excitedly: "What Master Tan said is true, as long as there is a stable supply from the iron yard of Tiepu Mountain, there will be no problem for me here!" ”

Zhao Yan on the side said: "It's just that so many firearms are produced, and they can't be used up!" In less than two months, our new army will have more troops, and even more birds than soldiers! ”

Tan Xiaoda waved his hand and said, "Why did the guerrilla lord spend money and food to move the armor supervision office to Aoshanwei? One of the reasons is to increase production, the guerrilla masters are deep in mind and ambitious, far from being something we can guess, we just need to do our part. ”

Zhao Yan and Cui Mingyuan hugged their fists to lead the order.

A few days later, Xu Le led a large group of men and horses to arrive at the city of Qianhu in front of Weifu Mountain in Aoshan.

Guo Rong, the defense officer and the general manager of the Zhongying Qian, was waiting at the gate of the city early, and he couldn't help but be amazed when he saw the huge convoy coming along the official road.

"I'm afraid that all the 100 households in Wangjiazhuang have been moved, right?"

Xu Le's carriage stopped at the gate of the city, and after getting off the car, he came to salute, Guo Rong had already sent someone to direct the convoy to continue to enter the city, and he came over and said with a smile: "Master Xu has been tired all the way, and he has worked hard!" ”

"Hehe, doing things for the guerrilla lords, I am happy in my heart, and it is not hard."

"I prepared wine and food in the Qianguan Hall, and let the escorted Qianying brothers eat and drink at the school in a while, and Director Xu will go to the Qianguan Hall with me to rest."

Xu Le waved his hand and said, "I appreciate Lord Guo's kindness, but I want to go and see the new site of the Armor Supervision Office first." ”

"It's good!"

Guo Rong explained a few words to his subordinates, and then said to Xu Le: "The Armor Supervision Office is in the city, let's go over." ”

The city of thousands of households in front of Fushan covers a lot of area, but the population is not much, the reason is that the land here is barren, as early as the Wanli period, there are constantly military households fleeing, and later Aoshan Wei simply deleted a lot of the list of military households in front of Fushan, and many military households have moved to other places.

This leads to the Fushan front thousand households in the city is very empty, there are a large number of vacant houses, this time the new site of the military armor supervision office is located in the north of the city, Liu Yan after field investigation, a large number of houses, the area is twice the size of the old site of Wangjiazhuang.

Xu Le, accompanied by Guo Rong, checked everywhere, and saw that the tall courtyard wall surrounded most of the courtyards of half the street, and only the main gate and the east and west side gates could enter and exit, which was very tight.

In addition, the houses inside are also planned, consisting of individual courtyards for the use of each workshop of the Armor Supervision Office.

"Director Xu, there is the North River in the north of the city near Laoshan Mountain, after a month of construction, a dam has been built there, as well as the division of labor of the armor supervision office, and the hydraulic drilling machines required by Director Xu are all in place, a total of two hundred."

Xu Le laughed when he heard this, and said, "Okay, great! With these two hundred hydraulic drilling machines, the output of the armor workshop will increase dramatically, and at least five or six thousand pairs of armor can be made in a month, which is great! ”

Then Xu Le clenched his fists and said: "So many things, Master Guo has done it in about a month, it's really hard!" ”

Guo Rong said: "Actually, it's nothing, this time the guerrillas have allocated a lot of money and food, and I am nothing more than a lot of silver, employing a large number of craftsmen and people, and the time of a month is actually not tense." ”

Xu Le looked at the brand-new site of the Armor Supervision Office, his heart was happy, and he immediately said: "If Lord Guo doesn't mind, I want to start dealing with the affairs of the Armor Supervision Office immediately, so I won't accompany Master Guo." ”

Guo Rong was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "Sure enough!" ”

"Really?"

Guo Rong looked at Xu Le, who was a little surprised, and said: "When the guerrilla lord inspected the Beihe branch workshop some time ago, he warned me: Xu is a master craftsman, and after seeing the new site and the division workshop, he will directly indulge in it and start to get busy. So don't prepare any banquet for Director Xu, just prepare a futon for Director Xu. ”

Xu Le laughed heartily: "Those who know me, adults too!" ”

From this day on, Xu Le took a group of craftsmen and apprentices to get busy, all the belongings of the Armor Supervision Office were placed in, and the new houses of the Armor Supervision Office were also allocated one by one, the armor workshop accounted for two-thirds of the houses, the blade workshop accounted for one-third, and then the two workshops were subdivided.

When these affairs were over, it was already four days later, Xu Le immediately ordered the Armor Supervision Office to start resuming production, and sent people to contact the Iron Yard of Tiepu Mountain to start delivering various materials to the new site of the Armor Supervision Office.

In the early morning of this day, in the city of Qianhu in front of Fushan, a man carried a flat pole, and some melons and fruits were placed in the bamboo baskets at both ends of the flat pole, and walked to the outside of the main gate of the new site of the Armor Supervision Office, and then found a shady place to sit on the ground, and began to sell along the street.

"Hey! Fresh pears, sweet and sour apricots, all come and see! ”

After some shouting, there were few pedestrians coming, although it was early in the morning, but the weather was still hot, even in the shade under the trees, the blowing was also hot wind, blowing on the body was very uncomfortable.

The man was drenched by this time, but he was still sitting under the tree and shouting lazily, his eyes glancing at the gate of the armor superintendent across the street.

It didn't take long for more than a dozen carts to stop at the gate of the Armor Supervision Office, and when the gate was opened, the people accompanying the carts carried iron, coal and other materials under the registration and supervision of several soldiers of the New Army.

This scene was all seen by the man under the tree, who took a pear out of the basket, pinched it with his fingernails, and put it in again.

It wasn't until late afternoon that the man left with his shoulder. After spending all day on the street in such a hot weather, the man's footsteps were already a little frivolous, obviously not light, but he still quickened his pace, and soon turned into an alley and disappeared.

Some people died, but not completely......
