Chapter 682: Money, money, money

The medical problem of wounded soldiers has always been the most troublesome problem in the cold weapon war.

There are only two reasons why the wounded soldiers are refractory: 1. The number of doctors is insufficient; 2. The burden of medicinal materials is too heavy.

Medicine is also a 'low profession', and it is one of the professions that ordinary people are unwilling to engage in. Therefore, the number of doctors in various places is limited, and it may not be busy enough to recruit all of them together.

Moreover, even if the doctor is barely enough, it is still useless without medicinal herbs, and buying medicinal materials requires money.

Minor injuries are easy to resolve, and they can recover after resting for ten days and a half months after bandaging, but it is more troublesome for seriously injured patients.

Veterans who have seen blood are far less powerful than recruits, and being able to recover is an extremely valuable resource, so generally no princes will give up veterans who are slightly injured.

The cost of treatment for minor injuries can still be afforded, but the cost of treatment for serious injuries will become a burden.

If it is a disabled wounded person with broken hands and broken feet, then the final end will definitely be abandoned, because no army can support the disabled.

If you want to completely solve the problem of wounded soldiers, the only way is to keep pouring money into it, which can be said to be a bottomless pit that cannot be filled.

But as long as they can withstand this kind of consumption, the soldiers' sense of identity and cohesion with the army will reach an unimaginable level, and this army will also strive to become a strong force that cannot be dragged or broken. military.

The soldiers had no worries, and fought with all their might without fear of casualties. The power of such an army was undoubtedly terrifying.

Qin Hao has been pushing hard to build such an army, and the reason why the Yanmen Army has such high military salaries and benefits is to make the soldiers have no worries.

In addition, in the construction of Yanmen Army, Qin Hao has also been proposing to recruit military doctors.

The Yanmen Army also has its own military doctors, but because they cannot bear the burden of the seriously wounded, the treatment rate has so far failed to exceed [-]%.

The creation process of the Yanmen Army was much more difficult than that of the Qin Army, but the medical expenses also accounted for a large proportion. Although the rescue rate was only [-]%, it created the unyielding spirit of the Yanmen Army.

In all the previous battles, even if more than half of the Yanmen Army had suffered casualties, they had not been defeated. This was the strong cohesion of the Yanmen Army.

In the former Yanmen Army and now the Jin Army, the treatment rate of wounded soldiers was only [-]%, and the troops under the command of other lords were naturally lower, but Qin Hao's goal of creating a medical care battalion was to increase the treatment rate of wounded soldiers to nine. to make.

The medical care camp has been established for two years. Although the two years of study are not enough for these new doctors to train, they are enough to deal with [-]% of the battlefield emergency treatment.

In addition, Qin Hao was also ruthless in the acquisition of medicinal materials, so he readily agreed to Duanmurong's proposal to buy a large number of medicinal materials.

There is no shortage of doctors, and there are enough medicinal materials. It is conceivable that the death rate of wounded soldiers in the Qin army will be reduced to a very small level in the future.

Although it is impossible to reach [-]% in a short period of time, as the experience of these three thousand doctors becomes more and more rich, Qin Hao believes that [-]% is definitely an achievable goal.

Looking at Duanmu Rong, Qin Hao smiled indifferently and said, "Miss Rong, the candidate for the male commander of the medical and nursing camp, this marquis will select it as soon as possible."

Duanmurong left with satisfaction after hearing the words, and after her, it was Liu Ye from the Industrial Engineering Institute who approached Qin Hao for funding.

"My lord, our army now has 12 people, and the number of troops has increased by six times, but the factory is still the same size as before." Liu Ye said with a serious face.

Qin Hao saw through Liu Ye's purpose at a glance, and said with a smile, "Ziyang, do you want to expand the scale of the factory?"

"That's right, the scale of the factory is now unable to provide sufficient equipment for the army, so it is urgent to expand the scale."

Although the training of the [-] new army has been completed, due to the previous financial crisis, the equipment of the new army has not been fully in place.

It is impossible for Qin Hao to let his soldiers wear single shirts to fight the enemy, so the equipment must be made.

The ordnance to be built by Gongzao is all the equipment of the 12 army. The amount of work is beyond the imagination of ordinary people, so the expansion of the scale is completely within Qin Hao's expectations.

"It's really urgent."

Qin Hao nodded, and then asked, "Ziyang, what size do you think the factory will expand to?"

A trace of deep thought flashed in Liu Ye's eyes, and then he opened his mouth and said, "[-] craftsmen."

After hearing this number, Qin Hao almost spit out the tea he just drank in his mouth.

There were originally three thousand craftsmen in the factory, so it is impossible to increase the number of craftsmen by a factor of six because the army should be expanded fivefold, right?

"No, there are too many. Even if Ben Hou agreed, Wen Ruo and the others would never agree."

Qin Hao directly shook his head and refused. He didn't have to think about it to know that once he agreed, Xun Yu would definitely come to him every day to cry.

Craftsmen also have to pay salaries. The more people recruited, the more salaries they will be paid. It's all money. Weapons can be built slowly.

Liu Ye didn't seem surprised at all, and continued: "Does your lord still remember that before you left Nanyang, you proposed a plan of 'all-armor armor'?"

"Of course I remember." Qin Hao nodded. He proposed it himself, so how could he not remember.

Of course, 'full army armor' does not mean that the entire army wears armor, but it is constantly striving towards this goal and trying to improve the leather armor rate of the army under its command as much as possible.

With money and time, you can make a lot of armor, and maintaining and updating armor is equally expensive.

If you can't afford it, even if you build the armor, it will still rust and mold in the warehouse.

The cost of building and maintaining armor is too high, so it is unimaginable for all members to wear armor, and what Qin Hao has to do is to improve this ratio as much as possible.

Qin Hao and Xiang Yu fought several beautiful battles with less victory, which also made the princes everywhere realize the importance of elites.

In order to prevent their own territories from being annexed, the princes of various places naturally try to improve the combat power of their troops, and equipping the army with armor to improve the defense is the simplest and most rude way.

"My lord, the princes of various places are increasing the armoring rate of their troops, and the lord said that the minimum armoring rate of our army should reach [-]%."

Liu Ye looked at Qin Hao and asked, "Master, do you know what this means?"

Qin Hao shook his head for no apparent reason, and Liu Ye explained: "It means that [-] sets of various armors need to be forged, plus more than ten kinds of equipment such as weapons and crossbows, even if you have Fifteen thousand craftsmen will need at least two years of forging to complete it completely."

After listening to what Liu Ye said, Qin Hao was stunned. He originally thought that [-] craftsmen were already a lot, but now it seems that it is still not enough!
