Riding and cutting the imperial pirates of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 22 Preparation
"For an army that can win battles, besides military discipline, the most important thing is equipment and food."

Having said that, Wang Zheng paused and looked at Xu Fang.

All matters related to materials, Wang Zheng was habitually handed over to Wu Sheng at the beginning, but he was too lazy, after several beggings, Wang Zheng was handed over to Xu Fang.

Xu Fang was among the first group of teenagers who followed him. He was the one with the most thoughtful thoughts and the most rigorous personality. All matters related to materials, whether food or arms, management or storage, were handled in an orderly manner.

As soon as Wang Zheng turned his head, Xu Fang understood, and quickly replied:

"Currently the battalion's materials are counted: about 120 catties of grain, more than [-] short weapons such as swords and swords, more than [-] long weapons such as spears and halberds, ten bows and arrows, and forty pieces of armor."

After Wang Zheng heard this, his brows were tightly frowned, and his face showed a serious expression.

The lack of armaments and food on my side is expected, but the degree of lack.
Some exceeded expectations.

The current sources of these materials, apart from their own savings before the rebellion, are the results of the last three fights.

Most of the armor and bows and arrows were provided by Gong Xu's soldiers, and the remaining ones after the battle were removed, but the amount could not even be fully equipped for a Tianzhu camp.

Weapons are even more serious. In the absence of long-range attack means, short weapons with the largest number are the most unsuitable for frontal fighting on the battlefield.

There is also a problem with food. 1 catties of food seems like a lot, but the daily consumption of the nearly [-] people in the military camp at this time is equally astonishing.

We must know that in modern times, everyone's daily ration consumption is nearly 1 catty.

Although the ancients did not have three meals, the physical exertion of soldiers was far better than that of people in peacetime.

Wang Zheng calculated in his mind for a moment that the [-] catties would probably last for more than ten days at most before it would be exhausted.

Thinking of this, Wang Zheng hesitated for a long time, and finally made a decision.

Kindness does not hold the army!
One order after another blurted out immediately.

"From today onwards, all food will be under unified control, and the food will be given priority to the soldiers of the Celestial Army. Each person will have two meals a day, and the old, young, women and children will have one meal a day!"

"In the three parts of Tianfu, experienced craftsmen such as blacksmiths and carpenters are gathered together."

"In the two parts of Tiangang, there are hunters, those who know horses, raise horses, and have experience in riding horses. They also gather together."

"Collect all the agricultural tools and ironware, including all the long and short weapons at present, let the blacksmith open the furnace to smelt them, and tell them to only forge the spear head."

"Tianfu Sanbu cut down suitable trees nearby and assisted carpenters in making gun shafts."

"Everything should be done within three days, without mistakes!"

"In three days, march into Zhao County."

The first few orders were fine, but when they heard the last one, surprise and hesitation appeared on everyone's faces.

Wu Sheng, who had the closest relationship, had the least scruples, so he couldn't help but said:

"Attack Zhao County? Ah Zheng, are they all fellow villagers from the same county?"

"Follower?" Wang Zheng sneered, "If it's a fellow, he should be in this camp right now."

He stared at Wu Sheng, spoke to him, and seemed to speak to everyone.

"You have to know that people who are as poor as us are our fellow countrymen."

"Sitting in a mansion with fertile land, rich in wealth, and never worrying about food and clothing"

"Never!"

The next day, all orders began to be executed quickly.

Confucianism outside the Han Dynasty and Law inside.

Confucianism is a soft culture, and it pays attention to subtly influencing and suppressing nature for ordinary people, so that these ruled classes are accustomed to obey and be restrained.

Legalists, on the other hand, paid attention to ignorance of the people, and the "Shang Jun Shu" clearly stated that the ignorance of the people is easy to govern, so that the thoughts of the ruled class are imprisoned and their knowledge is suppressed.

To put it bluntly, one of the two is to make people get used to not resisting, and the other makes people not know where to resist.

Under such circumstances, even the ration control, which affects the most vital interests, did not cause much disturbance.

They have already worshiped the king's government like gods, so they dare not refuse.

As a ruler, Wang Zheng also realized for the first time the benefits of the ruling method of Confucianism outside and Law inside the feudal era.

However, following everyone's investigation and search, it was a surprise that the number of craftsmen was more than Wang Zheng expected.

These blacksmiths and carpenters who usually make and repair farm tools, although their skills are certainly not very sophisticated, are also sufficient to meet the requirements of Wang Zheng.

The gun head and gun barrel are weapons that require very little skill.

Whether it is forging or practicing.

As puffs of thick smoke rose, one iron furnace after another started to work.

At the same time, the nearby mountains and forests suffered a sudden disaster, and giant trees fell to the ground one after another.

With full concentration, people's execution ability is actually very strong. With everyone working together, the enthusiastic working atmosphere lasted for a whole day.

That night, more than a dozen sample spears appeared before Wang Zheng's eyes.

Whether it is quality or workmanship, it seems that it is not very good, right?
Wang Zheng picked up a handful and stabbed the void five times.

He knew that his strength was different from ordinary people, so from the beginning, he carefully increased the force gradually. As a result, by the third stroke, the body of the gun began to shake; fell to the ground.

"Bang!"

"This", the crisp voice rang out in the long night, Wang Zheng froze for a moment, turned his head to look at the blacksmiths who made the guns, his expression changed suddenly.

"The villain is guilty." Just a little angry, several blacksmiths fell to the ground in a panic, and dared not speak for a long time. In the end, an old man who took the lead forced himself to speak, and his voice was a little stuttering:
"General, forgive me."

Seeing the reaction of these people, Wang Zheng was taken aback for a moment. In fact, he was just slightly upset, not really angry.

Especially when he saw the white-haired old man trembling, he immediately felt apologetic, and said with some embarrassment, "I don't blame you, it's because of my strength."

Afraid that the blacksmiths would not believe it, he added: "I also know that you need to remove impurities when forging iron. The time is short and the materials are not complete. It is not bad to have such a good quality."

His words were words of consolation, but what he said was indeed in line with the facts.

I secretly sighed in my heart, after these days, my hands are covered with blood, and my murderous intent has become more and more serious. Sometimes when something goes wrong, I can't help the killing intent.

Now that you are in a high position, you have to pay more attention to restraint.

While thinking about it, Wang Zheng helped the blacksmiths with a gentle expression, and after a while of comfort, the blacksmiths finally felt relieved and showed expressions of gratitude.

I couldn't control my emotions enough to scare them, but they were grateful for my grace of not killing
Looking at the steps of those people when they left, still a little staggering, a trace of unbearableness flashed in Wang Zheng's eyes, and he shook his head.

After a while, he calmed down and said to Wu Sheng and the others:

"Tomorrow and the next two days, let the soldiers all practice, and first concentrate on practicing a straight thrust."

Although the straight stab is just a simple tactical move, it is still somewhat technical.

There are skills in how the body exerts force, what posture to exert force, and what angle is suitable for exerting force.

Wang Zheng is superhuman in martial arts, but he is not a master of martial arts, and there are no such talents in the camp at the moment, so he can only find a stupid way for everyone to understand by themselves, relying on "hands-on knowledge".

Of course, it is a ridiculous delusion to say how familiar you can be in two days, but in the end, every point counts.

"promise."

Wu Sheng and the others nodded quickly.

Seeing that Wang Zheng had no other orders, everyone left one after another, but Wang Zheng suddenly said: "Ah Sheng, you stay, there is something you need to do first."

As the acquaintance of the original owner, the two spent the most time together since time travel. Every time, Wu Sheng stood by Wang Zheng's side and fully supported him. In terms of the weight in Wang Zheng's heart, Wu Sheng can be regarded as the world's number one One, even surpassed Huo's mother and daughter.

So when it comes to important matters, Wang Zheng will always think of him first.

"Ah Zheng, what's the matter." In private, Wu Sheng would never call him a general.

Regarding this point, Wang Zheng didn't want to correct it at all, he liked when people called him that, of course, not too much.

"You bring the Heavenly Punishment Camp..."

Wang Zheng repeatedly urged him twice, and he confirmed that Wu Sheng fully understood the key points and many matters, so he nodded.

Seeing this, Wu Sheng cupped his hands, turned around and walked out the door.

As soon as he stepped over the threshold, Wang Zheng called him again.

"Asheng."

Wu Sheng was a little surprised, and when he was about to turn around, he patted his shoulder heavily with one hand.

Behind him, Wang Zheng looked at him seriously: "Swords have no eyes, be careful."

"Ha, you've already become a general, why are you such a mother-in-law!"

Wu Sheng didn't care about it with a smile on his face, and he didn't feel moved at all that should match the situation.

This idiot! Why do you have some tears in your eyes?

Looking at the opponent's back, Wang Zheng scolded with a smile.
