Lord Moyu was forced to open

Chapter 72 Prepare for Battle!

In the north city of Yunzhou City, there is an iron smelting workshop under the jurisdiction of Feiyun Commercial Bank.

At this moment, don't look at the snow in the sky outside, it's freezing everywhere.

But in the workshop, the steaming forging tables were clanging continuously.

The things placed on it are just transported from the casting table of the assembly line, and they have to go through simple treatment and quenching before they can become a truly qualified product.

In this cold and twelfth lunar month, the effect is not easy. Most people spend the winter at home with cats, but this iron smelting workshop is busy all year round as long as there is work.

Being able to work in major iron smelting workshops has also become a salivating great thing.

Today, the iron smelting workshop is clinking as usual, and a batch of hoes are being mass-produced in the workshop today.

With the construction of roads in Feiyun Mountains, so many people always need tools to work, and the consumption of tools has always been a big problem.

As a result, the county yamen assigned the making of tools to the making and replacement of tools to the major workshops in Yunzhou County.

And because they belonged to Feiyun Commercial Firm, they even grabbed a big piece of cake in this profit division and got the task of making hoes.

ding ding dong...

"It's all sloppy! This hoe is very important to the Yamen. Let's finish the delivery as soon as possible so that we can grab another job! But remember that the quality must not be bad, otherwise it will be a coolie for the Yamen. Said we didn't notify you!"

The steward of the workshop shouted loudly to the surroundings.

The blacksmiths around heard the words and agreed with a loud bang, and the movements of their men couldn't help being a little faster.

At this moment, a young servant hurriedly ran in, and then, under the surprised gaze of the steward, before he could catch his breath, he said, "Steward Liu! The latest order from the palace! All the military-related workshops in the city , All entered the state of wartime, and fully produced weapons to supply the army!

Our workshop has also been classified as a wartime workshop, responsible for making throwing guns for cavalry troops! "

Guanshi Liu was startled when he heard the words, order from the palace?Wartime status?
But soon realized the seriousness, and hurriedly asked: "Is this going to war?"

The boy shook his head, expressing that he was not clear.

Guanshi Liu knew that he couldn’t ask anything, so he didn’t ask him any more. After thinking for a while, he strode towards the center of the assembly line, and then announced loudly to everyone: “Everyone, according to the order of the king’s palace, the workshop will be transferred from now on. In the state of war, when the latest batch of rough weapons comes in from outside the city, they will stop working immediately and turn to making weapons!
I believe everyone is not stupid. I know what it means for the palace to let you do this. I hope that you can use your heart when building weapons, and don’t want inferior products. With these weapons, we will fight desperately with our enemies in Yunzhou County.

Do you understand everything? ? "

Chong Ren, who was busy at first, was shocked when he heard the amazing news, but then he reacted quickly and responded loudly.

Manager Liu nodded in satisfaction, and then quickly adjusted the work order in the workshop to facilitate better and faster weapon production.

Fortunately, this is not the first time their workshop has produced weapons for the military. They are quite familiar with all this, and it is not difficult. They quickly adjusted the entire production line.

At this time, the latest embryos from the stamping workshop outside the city were also sent over, and a pair of spear embryos were sent into the workshop, and then the workshop started up again, and the clanging sound reappeared, but this time the workshop was In this noisy sound, a long spear was shaped like flowing water.

This workshop is just a microcosm in the entire Yunzhou City. At this moment, all the workshops in the entire Yunzhou City that are related to the military have already entered a wartime state.

Not only spears, but also armor workshops, simple knife workshops, helmet workshops, saddle workshops, shield workshops, etc...

All kinds of equipment were desperately produced in the form of an assembly line to quickly replace the guard battalion, and a batch of secret weapons were officially assembled into the army, which made the guard soldiers who were about to face the Tatar cavalry very excited.

Not only equipment, but military cans were produced one by one by the canning workshop and sent to the barracks. There were meat, fruit, and even vegetables. It is great to be able to eat a bite of vegetables in this winter.

Canned vegetables from the canning workshop are the hottest sellers this winter.

In short, Zhao Jun has equipped all the supplies for the guards, and then we can only see the result of the war and God's will!

Looking at the various supplies brought into the barracks not far away, the morale of the soldiers was also extremely high, and they were all gearing up to prepare for the battle.

The high-level officers in the army are holding a combat meeting to discuss the method of this battle.

The barracks tent.

"This battle can't be placed near my base camp. The prince gave us such good equipment not for us to stay on guard. Besides, once we fall into a passive defensive situation, our side has few people and it is easy to fall into the trap. Passive, being led by the nose!
Therefore, I think that we must take the initiative to attack, and we must control the battlefield in the area where the battle is fought, and we must not let the enemy burn the flames of war into the vicinity of Yunzhou City! "

Guan Ning, the deputy commander of the guards in the big tent, pointed at the sand table with a baton and expressed his opinion. This opinion was approved by most of the generals. It is also a good thing to be able to draw the enemy elsewhere.

But there are also people who have different opinions.

"My lord, I don't agree with your opinion. I understand your idea of ​​resisting the enemy and the outside world, but the disadvantage of our guard army's numbers is objective. If we don't rely on the city to garrison and face more than double the number of places, I'm afraid we will Fang's soldiers will not be opponents. We must know that most of our people are just recruits who have been trained for three months, not veterans of many battles.

And this war is related to the survival of our Yunzhou County, we must not act hastily, we should rely on the city to fight steadily and steadily. "

Shao Xianyang, the commander of the Seventh Army, stood up and expressed his opinion, and his opinion also represented the opinion of most conservatives in the guard army.

Their main concern is that there are too many new recruits in the guard battalion. If they take the initiative to attack, those recruits may not be able to complete their strategic goals well, or even be delayed.

After Shao Xianyang stood up, other army commanders also stood up and expressed their opinions, but most of them were divided into two factions, the enemy faction and the city defender faction, and the two sides argued with each other fiercely.

At the very beginning, Ding Hongguang, the commander of the guard army, had been silently looking at the sand table, listening to the quarrel of his subordinates for a long time, and suddenly said: "Everyone stop."

Although the voice was not loud, it was clearly heard by anyone, and the originally noisy camp became quiet in an instant.

And Ding Hongguang also said at this time: "Just follow the plan of Deputy Commander Guan."

Ding Hongguang said lightly.

Shao Xianyang, the Commander of the Seventh Army, said anxiously, "But Commander, there are too many new recruits in the battalion, I'm afraid..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Ding Hongguang raising his hand.

"If you don't really fight a fierce battle, they will always be recruits, and as long as you go through the battle, I will believe that these sons and daughters will be able to transform. Besides, you have not seen the secret weapon that the prince gave us. , With these, we don’t need to confront each other head-on.”

"Then how should we hold the other party? The other party is not a fool and would not foolishly entangle with us on the grassland. He will definitely come straight to Yunzhou County."

Someone has a comment.

Ding Hongguang did not answer, but stood up and circled around the sand, then waved his baton in his hand, pointed to a certain place and said, "Just here, as long as we keep pulling here, the other party will definitely compete with us for this place."

I saw that what Ding Hongguang was pointing to was the only water source within a radius of hundreds of miles from Yunzhou County.

Every army must pass through a section of water. If the water source is cut off, the army will be in danger!
As long as the guard battalion occupies this place and continues to drag Hegel's Tatar cavalry, they will definitely stop and compete with the guard battalion for this water source, or they will die of thirst halfway before they reach Yunzhou City!

Everyone understood what Ding Hongguang meant in an instant, and all of them smiled.
