Chapter 046

"Congratulations to the lord, the military heart is available!"

Cheng Shijie looked at Song Xiance and said, "How are you doing?" ”

"I'm about to tell the lord that five thousand sets of military uniforms have been made!"

Song Xiance likes his current job very much, because almost all the women in the military uniform factory are women, and there are very few women in Zuo Qianhu, and all of them are yellow and thin, like bean sprouts.

But with the large quantities of food purchased and distributed as wages, the women were able to eat well, nourish, and their faces became rosy. In the past, I felt that there were no good-looking women in the whole thousand households, but now it seems that whether it is a big girl or a small daughter-in-law, she looks quite thoughtful.

Cheng Shijie said: "The military uniform factory can't be stopped, and it is ready to purchase cotton and make cotton clothes immediately, it is already September, and it is already unbearable cold at night." ”

Song Xiance breathed a sigh of relief, those female workers in the quilt factory who tasted the sweetness were unwilling to go back to the past, with the completion of the production of 5,000 sets of military uniforms, these women did not come to Song Xiance to intercede.

Originally, because of his short stature and ugly appearance, Song Xiance has now become a fragrant dumpling. Song Xiance, who has lived for more than 30 years and has not touched a woman, is with a widow.

This can be regarded as an old house on fire, and it is out of control.

Song Xiance not only had an extra daughter-in-law, but also brought two babies.

"There is one more important thing that needs to be told to the lord!"

"What!"

"We're running out of money!"

Song Xiance smiled bitterly: "The steel factory, the iron ore factory, the carriage factory, the quilt factory, the textile factory, as well as the construction of barracks, the construction of houses, the gun bureau, the armor and crossbow bureau, everywhere needs money, we bought another 46,000 stone of grain last month...... In order to increase production capacity, we are no longer running out of manpower, and we have begun to recruit displaced people, and now Ninghai City has exceeded 20,000 people......"

"What did you say?"

Cheng Shijie frowned: "There are more than 20,000 people in Ninghai City, and there are more than 4,000 people here, you have recruited four or five thousand homeless people in less than a month?" ”

"The main need for the population!"

Cheng Shijie sighed and said, "Let's just say it, how much money is left?" ”

Song Xiance said: "There are only less than four thousand taels of silver!" ”

"Well, I'll give you three more crystal carriages!"

Cheng Shijie groaned: "There are too many such things in Dengzhou, and they need to be sent to the capital or Nanjing to sell." ”

"Save it!"

Originally, he wanted to train the troops for a few more days, but because of the problem of money, it was urgent to attack Zhensanshan, and if he continued like this, he would go bankrupt.

Although Cheng Shijie said that the Ning Navy lacked food and equipment, this was actually wrong, what he lacked was only sophisticated equipment, not ordinary equipment.

In fact, Cheng Shijie's family background is also quite rich now, and his equipment is divided into three sources, one of which is that Jin Yousheng served as Cheng Shijie and was wiped out by Qin Wu, and gave him a batch of equipment, followed by the capture during the annihilation of Qin Wu's department, and finally the equipment that was sold to Jin Yousheng in exchange.

When he annihilated the bandit Qin Wu's department, he captured more than 4,000 pieces of all kinds of messy equipment, and if he followed Qin Wu's way of armed forces, these pieces of equipment could arm more than 5,000 people.

In addition to the 50 pairs of iron armor, 600 spears, 200 waist knives, and 6 guns sent by Jin Yousheng before the war, more than 1,300 spears and spears were captured later. In just one long soldier, Cheng Shijie has more than 1,900 troops.

As for the waist knife, he had 200 stainless steel Tang horizontal knives purchased from later generations, 200 knives sent by Wei, more than 600 seized, and more than 1,000 knives.

In addition, there were three captured artillery pieces and more than sixty guns.

When trading military merits, Cheng Shijie changed one hundred and twenty guns, 5,000 catties of gunpowder, plus the previous 1,000 catties, he totaled more than 6,000 catties of gunpowder, and the guns had a total of three models, one hundred and eighty-seven.

100 horses, more than 2,500 spears, 289 pairs of iron armor, 133 pairs of leather armor, and some of them were in tatters, and they had not yet had time to maintain them.

Cheng Shijie's Ning Navy only had more than 2,500 soldiers on the surface, but he had a gun bureau with a total of more than 300 people, which was composed of firearms soldiers and craftsmen scavenged from Zuo Qianhu and each Qianhu.

It's not just that Cheng Shijie looks like a firecracker, but other thousands of households also regard firecrackers as a flood beast, Daming is not without technology, but the people responsible for managing the military department are all civilian officials, and civil officials do everything they can to make money, they sell the high-quality steel used to make the barrel, and those craftsmen have no way, and it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

As a result, these craftsmen are cheap Cheng Shijie, and as for the crossbow bureau, there are not many craftsmen, because excellent crossbowsmiths are treasures in the hands of any thousand households. These workers were based on Zuo Qianhu, a total of 87 craftsmen, and in order to increase production capacity, Cheng Shijie sent more than 100 young apprentices of fifteen or sixteen years old.

As a mobile force, Cheng Shijie also formed a baggage transport force based on 200 young and strong soldiers, and these soldiers were only equipped with waist knives transported from Dengzhou Wei, and the quality of these waist knives was not as good as those captured from Qin Wu. The only change, however, is that these transport vehicles take the style of a horse-drawn carriage.

Although Cheng Shijie can bring high-quality bearings from later generations, the problem is that the axles are too heavy, and they can only enter artificial forging in this era.

With the distribution of 5,000 sets of military uniforms, the appearance of the Ning Navy has undergone tremendous changes, the military uniform of the Ning Navy is completely different from the military uniform of the Daming Guard, it can be said that this military uniform is not even like a military uniform, more like a big family.

Black shirt top, black pants, black shoes, if you wear a black face scarf, you will simply be a killer in later film and television dramas.

In fact, the style of the clothing is not very important, no matter what kind of clothes, once the scale is formed, it is quite shocking. Two thousand five hundred, divided into a phalanx of fifty by fifty. This is because the basic establishment of the Ning Navy is twelve people per team, four teams are one sentry, plus the deputy sentry commander, exactly fifty people.

There are a total of fifty combat posts in the Ning Navy.

"Meet the General!"

Cheng Shijie said loudly: "Soldiers, do you remember what a soldier is? ”

"Defend the country and protect the township!"

"Very good, very correct!"

Cheng Shijie continued: "There are many veterans among you, these veterans have their own fields, these lands, this general will not distribute them to everyone by head, do you want to know the reason?" Because if the score is averaged, some people will pee their pants in the face of the enemy, they will run away, they will be timid, they will surrender, and even ...... If you want to deal with the block, then it is unfair for a true warrior to distribute these fields evenly. Therefore, the military field is only awarded to real warriors, in the Han Dynasty, a Han soldier, holding a ring-headed knife, holding a rhubarb crossbow, turned to fight thousands of miles, one Han to five Hu, that is, without five times or more than five times the strength, the Hu people did not even have the courage to face the Han army. The same is true of the Tang Army, in the Tang Dynasty, if you want to be a government soldier, you will give them 180 acres of land! ”

"So much?"

"Is it much?"

Cheng Shijie shook his head and said: "In the eyes of this general, it is really not much, if you have the combat effectiveness of the Tang Army in the future, this general will reward you with 300 acres, 500 acres, or even 1,000 acres of land!" ”

"Report!"

"Speak!"

"The general brags!"

"Haha......"

Cheng Shijie said solemnly: "General Ben really didn't brag, the Tang Army only has 627 mansions, and our Ming Dynasty has 547 guards, but, the Tang Army has a maximum of 1,200 people in a Zhechong Mansion, and the total strength is only about 600,000 people, but the Tang Army is fighting west from Chang'an to the coast of the Caspian Sea, you may not know where the Caspian Sea is, General Ben can tell you that the Caspian Sea is 14,000 miles west of Chang'an." They fought Korea to the east, Annam to the south, and Hanhai to the north, and don't they deserve a thousand acres of land? ”

"Eligible!"

"Do you want land?"

"Yes!"

"If you want land, it's actually very simple, cut off an enemy's head and come back, and General Ben will give you ten acres of land!"

"Report!"

"Speak!"

"Cut off ten enemy heads, can you give a hundred acres?"

"That's right!"

"Report!"

"If I cut off a hundred heads, will I be given a thousand acres of land?"

"Fuck off, General Ben doesn't want a mouth cannon!"

The soldiers laughed.

Cheng Shijie said: "Distribute equipment and get ready to go!" ”

"Yes!"

Any army is built with absolute self-confidence with victory. Zhu Yuanzhang, the little novice of Huangjue Temple, did not think that one day, he would be able to sit on the throne, hold the heavenly constitution in his mouth, and caress all directions. Because he was only a nine-division commander at first, as he expanded his army again and again with victory after victory, after eight years of southern conquest and northern war, he finally had 100,000 troops, 200,000 troops.

It took 16 years until the establishment of the Ming Dynasty in the first year of Hongwu (1368), and from the 12th year of Zhizheng (1352) to Guo Zixing, and from the time Zhu Chongba changed his name to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Cheng Shijie actually deliberately did not train the tactical skills of Ninghai officers, but only basic training. He understands that although he is not a soldier, the problem is that the Hangang Group itself is a large military support unit, and more than one-third of all employees are veterans, and the level of the armed forces minister of the Hangang Group is higher than that of the deputy director of the office of this organ, and he belongs to the active lieutenant colonel, which is equivalent to the rank of deputy regiment.

Every year, Hangang Group conducts a half-month rotation training for all employees, which is a full-time training, but only trains the basic movements such as the three steps of the queue and the four-sided rotation method and squatting and standing.

Not to mention that Cheng Shijie is not from a military background, even if he is a real soldier, copying the military training regulations of later generations will not work, because the combat objects are different, the combat objectives are different, the weapons and equipment are different, and the training and establishment methods are different, all of which need to be explored.

In the first battle of the Ning Navy, the opponent was a very weak existence, although the nickname of Zhen No. 3 was called Zhen Sanshan, but in fact, the number of bandits in this group was very small, only more than a hundred people.

Even if there were no more than 2,500 Ning Navy soldiers, and only Cheng Shijie's 500 Ding soldiers, he would be sure enough to kill Zhen Sanshan.

Persimmon picks up soft pinch, in fact, there is no shame, some pinching is good, at least when there is not enough strength, this is the safest way.
