Chapter fifty-seven everything is ready
"Take the gun and draw the sword!" With the order from the eight sister, the female soldiers quickly threw away the spear in their hands, and pulled out a waist knife from their waist with a clang.
"Spli!" With a whistle, the light of the knife flashed. These thousand big swords were opened together, and they were similar to the sword mountain, rolling forward unstoppable.
"Come!" Jiumei shouted, everyone held the big knife, retreated quickly, picked up the spear, and reorganized the team.
"How is it? Our army is well trained!" Eighth Sister and Nine Sister were a little squinting.
Zhao Yuanzuo smiled and said, "To be honest, it's enough. In this competition, you won by surprise. Yue Sheng couldn't adapt for a while, so he really might lose."
When the eighth sister heard this, she was unhappy. What does it mean to win a surprise? Even if we are in a dignified competition, we will definitely win. The hardships these days cannot be vain!
Zhao Yuanzuo smiled slightly and said, "Eighth Sister, Ninth Sister, you found that there are obvious shortcomings in your team! Our fighting method is most suitable to advance slowly and crush your opponent with collective strength. But what if the opponent does not face us head-on and fight guerrilla everywhere? How should we deal with it if there is a bow or arrow attack?"
The eighth sister and the ninth sister were stunned for a while, not knowing how to answer his question.
Zhao Yuanzuo said: "This competition stipulates the number of people and venues, so we should have no problem. However, our goal is not our own people, but the Liao Kingdom, so we must think more.
The first choice is that we must make up for our weaknesses and strengthen long-range strikes. Equip each person with a hand crossbow, and then everyone launches attacks in batches to form a cover-type strike on the enemy.
Also, equip everyone with a shield! It doesn’t need to be very big, it can protect the vital points. It is usually carried on the back, and when used, you can use a strap to fix it on your arms, which has a certain protective power and does not affect your movements."
Eighth Sister and Ninth Sister's eyes lit up and said, "Yes, this is a solution; but after His Highness did this, our Detachment of Women was armed from top to bottom."
Zhao Yuanzuo thoughtfully said: "Eighth sister said something good! We should have such a special force, so that they can all arm their teeth, just to perform the following special tasks. Really, why didn't I think of it? Looking back, I asked Dalang to hold a full-army competition, gathering these special abilities together to form a special force."
"Special Force?" Eighth Sister and Nine Sister said in surprise: "Your Highness tell us what is a special force?"
Zhao Yuanzuo also became interested and said, "Have you heard of the Iron Eagle Sergeant of Qin and the Iron Armored Xuan Cavalry of the Tang Dynasty? This is the primary special forces. They gather the elite troops in the army. When the battle is in a hurry, they break through the enemy's defense line in one fell swoop and play a role in reverse.
My idea is to follow the steps forward, not only to decide the outcome of the battlefield, but also to learn various skills, which can be said to be omnipotent to go up and down the sea. They will carry out various tasks such as sneak attacks, snipers, spy, assassination, counter-rebellion, kidnapping, and rescue.”
"What kind of mess is this?" Bajie and Jiumei were a little incomprehensible. Can such an army really exist? So is it a great sense of accomplishment to lead such an army?
Zhao Yuanzuo saw through their thoughts at a glance, but it is not easy to lead this army. He must have super strength. Yang Yanzhao is barely qualified. The eighth sister and the ninth sister are still a little short of it. If Yingzi grows up, he will probably be able to do it perfectly!
"You train your own Detachment of Women first. As for the special forces, let it go first. This team is not that easy to set up. I need to find instructors for them from various fields."
The eighth sister and the ninth sister were a little disappointed, but in the end they nodded and agreed.
Zhao Yuanzuo calculated the time. With the formation of the Women's Detachment, it was late autumn. The grain in the fields was almost harvested, and the military farming should be mentioned on the agenda.
Just as he was thinking of a horse running over, a war horse ran over, the man jumped off the horse and knelt beside Zhao Yuanzuo and said, "Your Highness! General Huyan and others are back, and the official yamen is waiting for Your Highness."
Zhao Yuanzuo was overjoyed when he heard this. Didn’t the Dongfeng also arrive? He said goodbye to his eighth sister and ninth sister, returned to the military field office, and sent someone to call Yang Yanzhao, He Chengju and others over.
As soon as Zhao Yuanzuo entered the hall, he saw several people sitting inside, which were Hu Yan Bixian and four water conservancy experts from the Ministry of Works.
When several people saw Zhao Yuanzuo, they stood up quickly, knelt down and saluted, "Greetings to Your Highness!"
"Don't be polite, get up and talk, get up and talk!" Zhao Yuanzuo laughed and paid everyone up, looking at everyone's purple and black faces, and said with a smile: "You must show up, everyone, let you suffer!"
Everyone felt excited when they heard this, and their noses were a little sore and said quickly: "Thank you for your concern. I will serve the country. I will never refuse!"
Zhao Yuanzuo laughed loudly and asked everyone to sit down and ask them about their investigation of the Great Water Wall this time.
Hu Yanbixian waved his hand and said, "Have a moment, you can carry the things up!"
With Zhao Yuanzuo greeting, four soldiers walked up with a huge table. Zhao Yuanzuo looked closely and found a huge sand table on it. This sand table was made of several small sand tables, and finally formed a map of Hebei.
A red line from Pukou of Yihe River in the west and ending in the east to Bohai Sea. A red line of more than 300 miles east and west runs through the entire sand table. This is the Great Water Wall that Zhao Yuanzuo has been preparing to build.
Zhao Yuanzuo took a deep breath and said, "Very good! Your work is done very carefully! What do we want to do with this sand table? How to do it is clear at a glance! A good start is half the success, and we are half the success now!"
"It's all your highness that I dare not take credit!" Hu Yanbixian and others were very polite and agreed in unison.
Zhao Yuanzuo laughed and said, "Hey, you can't say that. If you have merits, you will be rewarded. You have made the first contribution. When the military farm is over, I will naturally report it to the government and ask for merit for you."
"Thank you, Your Highness!" The few people agreed with a smile. Yang Yanzhao and others also arrived. Everyone greeted each other and then started the formal meeting.
Zhao Yuanzuo sat in the middle, and there were many civil and military officials sitting next to him. Zhao Yuanzuo gently knocked on the table and said, "Everyone, after several months of preparation, the construction of our Great Water Wall is finally about to begin. First, please let Hu Yan Bixian introduce to us the results of this inspection."
"Yes!" Hu Yan Bixian stood up, clasped his fists at everyone and said, "Everyone! After this period of investigation, we checked the river conditions along the way and believed that Your Highness's suggestion of the Great Wall of Water was completely feasible.
You can take a look at the sand table we drew. This black line is the original river and direction, and this red line is the direction of the river we planned to change. There is no need for particularly large projects during this period, and the most important thing is to expand and transform the existing river channels.
The final conclusion we came to is that it is completely possible and that we believe that with our ability, it can be done within one year."
Zhao Yuanzuo nodded and said, "Everyone has heard General Hu Yan's words! If you have any questions, please come and ask."
Everyone lay on the sand table, staring at the sand table and asking. Hu Yan Bixian and several water conservancy officials explained to everyone one by one.
After about half a day of discussion, everyone finally agreed to their opinions. Zhao Yuanzuo took a deep breath and said, "Everyone has no doubts! Now I announce that the Water Great Wall plan has officially begun, and the plan code is - Mangtian!"
"Yes!" Everyone stood up and answered loudly.
Zhao Yuanzuo looked around and said, "I will order He Chengju to be the commander-in-chief of this military farming service, and Yang Yanzhao is responsible for assisting. Hu Yan Bixian will provide technical guidance with all the adults.
Gao Kujun and Zhang Kui are also preparing food and grass everywhere, and they will be transported soon. Everyone will go back and prepare. When the food and grass arrive, we will start to take action immediately."
"Yes!" He Chengju stood up and took the lead in agreeing.
Zhao Yuanzuo nodded and said, "Before this, we have something to do; we need to think about the reactions of various countries.
Chen Tong and Zhang Zeng, in order to prevent the Liao Kingdom from interfering with our construction, you will immediately start to act, and in any case, you must convince them that the purpose of our doing so is to farm."
Chen Tong and Zhang Zeng quickly agreed. Their voices were loud and there was no hesitation. It was obvious that Zhizhu was already holding it.
After getting things done, Zhao Yuanzuo suddenly laughed and said, "By the way, before the official start, do we have something to solve? There is still a battle between the eighth sister and the ninth sister's wife's army and Yue Sheng's army? To congratulate the beginning of our military farming plan, you will give you a competition!"
Yue Sheng blushed when he heard this. He had just surrendered and bullied the eighth sister and the ninth sister, but he agreed to the appointment. However, he gradually discovered that the identities of these two people were not ordinary, and his relationship with His Highness was unclear.
What do you think of this game that makes me do? If I lose, I won’t make others laugh to death? If I win, I offend this highness to death. I can’t win or lose!
Yue Sheng squeezed out a smile and said, "Your Highness, it was just a joke at that time. Don't take this matter seriously!"
Zhao Yuanzuo looked at him and laughed: "Yue Sheng, why don't you look down on the Detachment of Women? Then you have to be careful, arrogant soldiers will be defeated!"
Everyone looked at Yue Sheng with a smile after hearing this, which was quite a bit like laughing at him.
