Chapter 70 Turning Point (2)

ps: Thanks to c2256\Braised Old Fish for your monthly ticket encouragement.

Li Chengzhong spent three days inspecting the Jinxian Shipyard, and he was quite satisfied with the results. Since the construction of the Jinxian Shipyard at the end of the third year of Guanghua, the appearance of the Jinxian Shipyard has changed day by day. Today, four years later, it has become a

There are more than 800 shipwrights, and they can start building two large ships of 600 stone at the same time, or five ships of 300 stone, or more than 20 small boats of less than 100 stone.

There is no shortage of wood around Jin County. What is lacking is the time to dry the wood. Since the giant trees were cut down at the end of the third year of Guanghua, the wood has been drying for three or four years. Finally, it is possible to build long-term sea ships. In fact, Jin County

The shipyard has started trial building ships since the first year of Tianfu, but they can only be used for half a year to a year, mainly to accumulate shipbuilding experience.

After Li Chengzhong pacified Bohai, Silla, and Ungjin, he obtained a large number of shipwrights from the above three places, which made Jinxian's shipbuilding strength improve by leaps and bounds; after Lu Longjun captured Dizhou, he also obtained many Central Plains shipwrights with valuable shipbuilding experience. These ships

The addition of the craftsman directly increased the shipbuilding level of Jin County to 600 stones!

Li Chengzhong didn't know anything about shipbuilding, but he had heard about the term "triangle sail". When he came to Jinxian this time, he proposed the concept of a "triangle sail", but he couldn't tell what it looked like. He just ordered a few head craftsmen to

The master's hair has turned gray.

Although he does not understand shipbuilding, Li Chengzhong knows the advantages of shipping. He has been planning the layout of shipping since last year. At the mouth of Zhangshui River, a ship port is under construction. It is expected to be completed in the first month of the second year of Tianyou.

Ships can go south from Jin County and berth at this ship port. Large ships can unload their cargo and transfer to smaller ships, then go up the Zhang River and pass through the Yongji Canal to reach Lu County and then enter Youzhou.

At the same time, Li Chengzhong also considered building a ship port near the mouth of the river. Military supplies could reach Bochang directly to support the combat expenses of the Bochang camp. The specific location is still being searched, but three places have been finalized. We will see the final result.

Which one is more suitable.

After inspecting the shipyard, Li Chengzhong finally didn't have to ride a horse this time. He led his accompanying officials, bid farewell to Zhou Zhiyu and other officials in the Yingzhou Governor's Office, and boarded a 300-stone ship at the Jinxian port.

Huomai led the guard battalion of 300 cavalry and related attachés to board the other two hundred-stone ships, guarding them one after another. The fleet headed south along the coast, and it took only three days and nights to board the ship.

A newly built trestle bridge at the mouth of Zhangshui River.

But damn seasickness, seasickness again, made Li Chengzhong and the accompanying officials and sergeants who boarded the ship stay here for two full days before they recovered a little. There is still a long way to go to build a Lulong navy.

When Li Chengzhong left this seaport, he gave the port a name. This name should be very familiar to those who have traveled through time. Li Chengzhong planned to use this name to tell those who came after - you are not the first to travel through time, I am!

His Highness Prince Yan, who once again made a prank, went to Fanyang Military Academy again before returning to Youzhou. He wanted to complete the last lesson for the new eighth-phase senior trainees. When this lesson is finished, the new eighth-phase advanced training class

The military academy training is over, and there are only three months left. These trainees will be assigned to various armies and enter the military internship period. As long as they are approved by the intern army, they can officially graduate and become officers at the battalion level or above.

Li Cunxu, Guo Chongtao, Li Jitao, Zhou Shengmao, Jie Muli and other Hedong generals first wanted to go to the Guizhou Army, which surprised Li Chengzhong. After asking about it later, he found out that it was because of his reputation. Although the descendants of the Guizhou Mountain Queen were in the Lulong Army

It is no longer a separate mountain within the system. However, it is famous throughout the world, especially among the Hedong Army, where it is the symbol of Lulong's most elite power.

The person who single-handedly brought the disciples from the back of the mountain to such a height was none other than the number one general in Hebei Province - White Horse Silver Spear Gao Siji. Although this gentleman has passed away, his reputation is still highly respected in Hedong, from King Li Keyong of Jin to

When they arrived at Hedong, all the soldiers were deeply impressed by it. So at first, the generals in Hedong really wanted to serve in the Guizhou army, to see this world-famous elite and to see the descendants of the white horse and silver spear.

Gao Xingzhou was the commander of the Guizhou military capital.

However, when the school study period ended, the Hedong generals no longer persisted, because they already understood that the past descendants of Guizhou Mountain no longer existed, and the Silver Gourd Capital and Yanchi Soldiers had become a thing of the past.

The Badu Cavalry has long since become the Zhaozhou Army. Although the Gao brothers, Wang Sitong, Li Chengyue, Zhao Ba and other famous generals of the younger generation in Hebei are still in high positions, they are no longer the military leaders of the past. They are still commanding the army, but

You can't mobilize a single soldier.

This is the most fundamental difference between the Lulong Army and the vassal towns all over the world! So, no matter where you go, it is actually the same.

After Li Chengzhong finished his last lecture, the final distribution plan was sent to the students. Guo Chongtao went to the Mozhou Army, Li Jitao went to the Yingzhou Army, and Zhou Shengmao went to the Dingzhou Army. After Li Chengzhong's special approval, Li Cunxu went to

It was a war zone - the Shangdang camp, and Ashina Jiemuli, in accordance with his own wishes of "following the example of his ancestors and guarding King Yan", became a trainee officer in the guard camp, working beside the beggar.

.

Li Jishen, the son of King Qi, was thrown to the Weizhou Army - he still admired Wei Boyabing very much. Although the real Wei Boyabing had been completely lost to Li Xiaoxi, the name of Weizhou Army still attracted him; Wang Shiyue applied to go to Huaizhou Army.

He invited the coalition forces because he had a good relationship with Agu, the Khitan officer who lived in the same room; as for Li Siye, he occasionally heard King Yan say that it seemed that in Anxi a hundred and fifty years ago, there was a general with the same name as him who was good at using the Mo Dao, so

He wanted to try Mo Dao, and the Mo Dao in the Youzhou Army were the most well-organized, so Li Chengzhong allowed him to join the Youzhou Army Old Camp as an intern as he wished.

Li Chengzhong does not need to care about the performance of these dignitaries from external vassal towns for the time being. At least from the reports of the Education Department and the Training Department, they have been well integrated into the Lulong Army system. The rest can only be seen.

Their own creation.

In October of the first year of Tianyou's reign, the first snow came very early, which seemed to indicate another bumper harvest in the coming year. Li Chengzhong returned to Youzhou humming Daolang's familiar yet unfamiliar ditty.

The main hall of Prince Yan's Mansion has been newly built. In addition to being larger in scale and style, Li Chengzhong doesn't quite understand what's so special about it. The only thing he knows clearly is that this big house can be called a "palace", and the steps have been increased.

Sixth level, three levels more than before.

Perhaps the biggest change is that above the main hall... Perhaps it should be said that not only above the main hall, every moment, when doing official business, there is a little civil servant next to him who is always holding a pen and holding a scroll. He is

The specialized officials responsible for recording Li Chengzhong's official affairs were, to put it bluntly, writing notes on daily life, which Li Chengzhong was not used to.

Zhang Xingzhong, Jiang Miao, Zhou Kan, Gao Mingbo and others bowed respectfully in the hall, and then Li Chengzhong gave him a seat, and several people gathered around Li Chengzhong to start a military discussion.

The implementation of the Two Rivers War Strategy formulated by Lu Longjun has been very smooth. So far, Shangdang Camp has rotated three batches of 12 battalion heads in total, and Bochang Camp has rotated five batches of 83 battalion heads in total, with nearly 100 officers and soldiers rotated.

The battalion totaled 50,000 people, accounting for half of the Lulong Army's standing army, which did not include the Youyan Security Army and the Liaodong Security Army.

Through such a large-scale rotation, most of the new army has been tested in actual combat, and a number of good seedlings have emerged who have won military exploits. According to the opinions of Jiang Miao, the Education Department, and Zhou Kan, the Training Department, the next nine training phases can be started.

expanded. Li Chengzhong agreed.

Jiang Miao specifically mentioned one thing that Zhao Zaili told in a private letter: Ren Dutou was not dead, but lived in Youzhou, and Ren Dutou's three sons had grown up, and Dalang and Erlang had both been recruited into the army.

He was in the bow and arrow camp on the right wing of the Mozhou Army, and Erlang was in the second battalion on the left wing of the Zhaozhou Army. Zhao Zaili hoped that Jiang Miao could give some care, so that Ren Ren would not suffer the pain of losing his son. To put it bluntly, Zhao Zaili hoped that Jiang Miao would intercede and bring the Ren family to justice.

The two brothers were transferred from the frontline battlefield.

Li Chengzhong was very surprised after hearing this. He had long thought that Ren Dutou died after the battle in Beizhou, but he did not expect that he was alive and well under his nose, so he immediately said that he would visit this person in the next two days.

An old boss.

Jiang Miao also said that the bow and arrow battalion of the right wing of the Mozhou Army to which Dalang Ren belonged participated in the first batch of battles. It is currently a full-rank soldier and has performed well in the Shangdang area. It has achieved the twelfth level of merit and is temporarily serving as the corps commander.

Erlang also participated in the battle at Bochang camp, and has just been transferred to the rank of auxiliary soldier, with two levels of merit. The bow and arrow battalion of the right wing has withdrawn to Liyang, and there is no danger, but the second battalion of the Zhaozhou army on the left wing has not yet withdrawn.

Da Lang has come back, and has recorded all the twelfth-level military merits. The quota for the new ninth junior officer school in Bailangshan is basically unavailable. Li Chengzhong does not need to worry about this. But Erlang of the Ren family is in some danger, and Jiang Miao hesitates.

After a while, he asked: "If Erlang is specially transferred back, he will not be able to stay in the army anymore. Can the cavalry battalion be transferred back?"

Li Chengzhong looked at Zhang Xingzhong. Zhang Xingzhong thought for a moment and shook his head: "No."

Jiang Miao pleaded: "When Ren Dutou was in Beizhou, he took great care of His Highness and..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Xingzhong interrupted: "Ren Dutou was also a Shangguan at that time, and he also took care of me. It's not that I don't want to save the second son of the Ren family, I just heard Lao Jiang talk about this matter, so I just thought about it.

It's boring... I have no objection to the monotony of Ren Jiaerlang, but as Lao Jiang said, if you do this, Ren Jiaerlang might as well quit the army directly... If the cavalry battalion is transferred back to Hebei, but it cannot be done, this matter is happening today

I have to ask for orders from His Highness. The situation in Ziqing is not good now. The Bochang camp is short of troops. Not only can we not transfer back the cavalry battalion, but we must continue to add more battalion heads!"

Li Chengzhong was stunned: "Didn't everything go smoothly before leaving Youzhou? Why did things go bad as soon as we came back?"

Zhang Xingzhong said: "It's not that the military planes were destroyed, but that Xuanwu had cavalry. According to reports from the Bochang camp, starting from August, the number of Xuanwu cavalry on the Ziqing battlefield has gradually increased, and I'm afraid it's close to a thousand cavalry!"
