Chapter 267: Pick up the goods

Of course, Lao Liu is not ignorant of his son's previous work in Linqiong to supervise the construction of armored soldiers, after all, this is also a major project related to the security of the family and country.

However, Liu Chan is no longer the kid who only knows nonsense in his heart now, but many big and small decisions are quite reliable.

In addition, the officials in charge all said that the prince's supervision was of great help to Linqiong's smelting business, and no one dared to fake and cooperate with his son to mess around with such an important matter, so Lao Liu was left to him.

But although he regularly inquired about Linqiong's situation, he really didn't expect that his son and Pu Yuan, whom he "picked up", could bring such a huge change to the equipment.

After trying the new type of Xuan Armor, Lao Liu watched the display of the new weapon with great interest.

These include the Tang knife (now renamed the Han Heng knife), which was intended to replace the ring head knife, and some Miao knives that could be used by both hands.

These were made for elite soldiers and were made using the steel-clad method.

There are also many improved versions of the original ring-head knives and other standard weapons for ordinary soldiers, using the lower-cost steel embedding method.

The blades of spears, halberds, and other long soldiers were improved by the steel clamping method.

These weapons, starting from the end of the old Liu can be said to be in love, even the cheapest inlaid steel knife, compared to the old equipment is much better.

"If the widow had obtained such a sharp weapon earlier...... Liu Bei touched the blade of a horizontal knife, and his words were full of embarrassment.

"Ahem." Liu Chan saw that the time was almost up, and took advantage of the situation and said, "Father, how are these armaments?" ”

"Yes, yes!" Liu Bei put down this and picked up that with a smile on his face, he didn't doubt him.

"Helping Pu Yuan to cast armor soldiers this time can be of little help to my father's Northern Expedition?"

"It's a great help, it's a big help, hehe."

Liu Chan said again: "Then this first batch of armor soldiers, it should be assigned to the Red Star Army." ”

"Yes, naturally it should be...... Well? Lao Liu woke up all of a sudden.

Good boy, I'm waiting for him here!

Lao Liu stretched out his finger and pointed at Liu Chan: "I knew it wasn't that simple!" Tell me first, how much? ”

The generous treatment of the Red Star Army has already made other armies blush, and things like new equipment that can greatly improve the survival rate, if Liu Chan gave him a word, then what would it do?

Liu Chan said lightly: "Fifty collars of the Qizi Jia, fifty Mo knives, two hundred Miao knives, and three hundred horizontal knives." ”

"How about giving it all to you?" Lao Liu didn't have a good airway.

Can?

Lao Liu didn't know whether to be angry or laugh, he took away most of the new-style Xuan armor in one sentence, and all the long-handled broadswords called "Mo Dao", which is called "can"?

Moreover, this batch of new knives is only less than 800 in total, and 500 when you open your mouth......

Liu Chan's eyes lit up: "Really? You don't have any jokes, father. ”

"Really? Okay, come here, I'll show you what it means to be true! Lao Liu said that he was going to lift his feet.

"Hey, father, pay attention to majesty, majesty!" Liu Chan said busily.

Now it's different from the original, the prestige that I have managed to accumulate, if I am still chased by Lao Liu with his shoes as in the past...... The majesty is gone.

Lao Liu looked around, and the attendants and guards did not squint, with solemn expressions, as if they hadn't heard or seen anything.

Lao Liu whispered angrily: "As soon as you open your mouth, most of the new equipment will be gone, what will others think when the time comes?"

"You need to know your own identity, how can you fight for the interests of the monarch and your subordinates? Do you still want to charge into battle on your own for the rest of your life? ”

Liu Chan sighed, he didn't want to be like the Liu Chan in the romance, hiding in Chengdu every day, either fighting cocks and crickets, or doing something he loved in the harem.

It's just that since you can't lower your head and kneel, you can only use every bit of strength you have to move towards a future where everyone else will surrender to you.

"My father didn't know that these new knives had their own uses, and they were very different from the ones before. This move was not to compete with the courtiers for profit, but to first study a set of tactics that fit with it, and then promote it to the whole army. ”

Lao Liu looked at Liu Chan's serious expression and felt ...... It seems to make sense, just say that the so-called "Mo knife" is an unprecedented style.

Liu Chan continued: "Among the first batch of equipment and weapons, there are still many spears and halberds, but I have never asked for them. Moreover, this is only the first batch, and Pu Yuan has adjusted the division of labor among the craftsmen and the forging process.

"Coupled with the new forging methods such as the newly modified furnace, the next few batches of weapons will only be built faster, and all armies will naturally be equipped.

This sentence finally convinced Lao Liu that indeed with his son's character, if he really wanted to fight for something, it would be impossible for those spears and halberds to let go.

On the other hand, most of the weapons that Liu Chan was going to go were new styles of weapons, and he and Pu Yuan were the designers of these weapons, so they naturally knew better their advantages, disadvantages and usage, and it seemed that the purpose was indeed as he said.

It's that I think of my son too naively.

For a while, Liu Bei was greatly relieved, and immediately waved his hand and agreed to Liu Chan's request.

As for Zhao Yun, Chen Zhi, and Wu Yi's Central Army, there is actually not much negative sentiment.

In other armies, only the generals had the right to express their thoughts, and the soldiers only had to obey orders.

Zhao Yun, Wu Yi...... These two people, I'm afraid that even if Liu Chan doesn't take the initiative to ask for it, they all hate to stuff all the best equipment into Liu Chan......

And Chen Dao, who also commands the elite soldiers, is a dead brain who does things with a single eye, and it is a matter of course that good equipment gives priority to elite soldiers, and Liu Chan's Red Star Army has also proved itself with its achievements.

In the absence of any opinion from the three commanders, ordinary soldiers have no right to express their dissatisfaction, otherwise it would be no different from a rebellion.

Liu Chan also attached great importance to the absolute obedience of the soldiers of the Red Star Army during the war, because if everyone had one idea, it would be a plate of loose sand, and it would not be able to form combat effectiveness at all.

But his strange Red Star Army, the free time of the regular army soldiers in non-war time and outside of training, can talk to the generals and even his Hanzhong crown prince on an equal footing.

And from this process, he didn't know what he gained was admiration and loyalty from the heart, and he also found a lot of flaws in military regulations, as well as some small ideas from front-line soldiers in battle.

Most of these ideas are not used and even seem a little naΓ―ve, but there are still occasional ideas that catch the eye.

For example, someone mentioned after the Battle of Nanzhong that each tun and team can have a fixed person who is responsible for making fires and cooking.

If the personnel are not fixed, some people are not in a hurry, and they can even break the coarse dough cake and cook porridge, not to mention the difficult operation of handling the game that is caught.

This made Liu Chan immediately realize the importance of setting up a separate cooking class, or a firehead army.

It is not a luxury that allows soldiers to "eat well" in wartime, but at least they can't rest for most of the time, and even eat food, which is also very influential in combat effectiveness.

If ordinary soldiers dare not say that Liu Chan's mind is full of "more important reforms", it is naturally difficult to notice this seemingly trivial matter, but in fact it is also very important to soldiers.

……

"How does it feel? The new guy I brought you guys. Liu Chan, who was carrying the new equipment back to the barracks, looked at the dumbfounded soldiers and smiled.

"Hey, hey, hey......"

Qian Duozheng couldn't help but hold a piece of scarlet armor, rubbing his face there, grinning and smirking, and his saliva was about to drip onto the nail piece......

His cheeks hurt from the shaving of the nails, and he was almost bald, but he was still reluctant to put it down.

No one else is much better than him, even Li Er, who has always been steady, also carefully stroked a narrow Miao knife at this time, and his affectionate eyes were no less than Xiahou Shang seeing Ah Yue who had reunited after a long absence......

Ding Feng picked up a horizontal knife and couldn't help but go to the school field to play, and the smooth knife move was attracting a burst of applause from the onlookers of the reserve soldiers.

How does it feel...... Needless to say, it's no longer true.

The second class improvement of the Red Star Army...... Or this time it can be said that evolution, which is about to begin.
