Chapter 237
The next day, King Ning's army set off again towards Shangjing, and besides the [-] heavy soldiers picking pine needles, there was also the Hongzhuang Battalion who refused to continue beating.

Not only did she not leave, Princess Anle also asked King Ning for the right to mobilize supplies at will.

If you don't want to leave, don't leave. If you don't go to the front, you'll 'add trouble' to yourself, and let yourself worry about it. It's safer to stay behind.

King Ning thought she was still angry and awkward, and didn't try to force it, but he hesitated about the right to mobilize supplies.

Although he knew Princess Anle in his heart, and her nonsense is nonsense on weekdays, but she would not be so ignorant as to do anything that is not good for her side, but...

This matter is still too important.

In the end, King Ning really couldn't bear Princess Anle's crying and fussing. In addition, Princess Anle promised that he would not mobilize siege supplies, food and grass, as much as he should, and never mobilize too much. Reluctantly agreed.

As soon as Princess Anle took this right, she began to mobilize kerosene, cloth, hemp rope, alum and other things wantonly. At the same time, she also went to the Xindezhou government to ask the Dezhou government to send all these things in the government, and also ordered Recruit bamboo and wood craftsmen.

Order the carpenters to hurry up to make thin wooden barrels. The wooden barrels can be sealed and cannot leak water.

These carpenters make things as strong as possible before explaining. I have never heard such a request.However, they can't understand the thoughts of the nobles, so they just do it, so as not to make the nobles unhappy and cause trouble for the whole family.

As for bamboo craftsmen, let them weave all kinds of bamboo baskets. The requirements are very simple. The bamboo baskets are the same size, the stronger the better, and the lighter the better. They must be able to hold hundreds of catties of stones and hang them for a few days. It won't rot.

Of course, the most important spherical cloth bags are still made by the sisters of Hongzhuangying.

Making cloth bags requires a wider space. Princess Anle directly led her daughter soldiers to occupy the site after King Ning withdrew from the camp. Compared with the place where the Hongzhuang camp was stationed, this place is really much wider and bigger.

As for the original [-] soldiers of the Central Army Camp, they were 'driven' by Princess Anle to the place where the Hongzhuang Camp was originally stationed to set up camp. About [-] female soldiers can live there, and of course [-] soldiers can also live there. Can live very loosely.

The remaining general of the supply battalion naturally didn't say a word, and obediently changed places. Not only that, but also had to collect pine needles every day while helping the Hongzhuang camp to collect turpentine.Colleagues, the pine needles have to be sent to the Red Makeup Camp first according to the quantity.

There is no way, who made Ning Wang feel sorry for Princess Anle... I can't afford it.

On this day, the female soldiers of the Red Makeup Battalion put down all their work except for taking turns to practice normally, and began to sew cloth balls according to Qingzhu's description.

Fortunately, when these female soldiers are at home, they have to do needlework, but the stitches need to be denser, which is not difficult for these girls.

"I hope this thing can be finished within half a month." In the camp, Princess Anle didn't want to be accompanied by his own soldiers, and only went with Qingzhu to patrol the various venues, watching the sewing of the cloth in full swing Situation, could not help but speak.

"Half a month?" Qing Zhu's voice was a bit weird.

After this thing is done, it has to be tested, and a bold and light woman has to be selected to practice, how can it be done in half a month...

"Yeah, it's going to be the beginning of winter in a few days. Although it's not very cold this year, we still have to try our best to capture Shangjing before it snows. Otherwise, we'll have to wait until next year's spring before attacking the city. As for that At that time, the various places will probably be able to spare their hands to support Shangjing, and at that time, for us, the outcome of this battle will be unknown." Princess Anle said looking at Qingzhu.

"Why can't you attack the city again after it snows? Also, how come someone will come to support Shangjing next year?" After all, Qingzhu doesn't know much about wars, especially ancient wars, so after hearing what Princess Anle said, she was quite surprised. I don't understand.

Princess Anle said as she walked, "You don't use swords in winter. You know this, because the winter is too cold, and the soldiers can't stand it. They will get frostbite on their hands and feet. How can they hold a sword steadily. In addition, the city is close to Beijing. In the northwest, it is much colder than our Ningzhou, and when the time comes, splashing water will turn into ice. As long as the defending side prepares enough water, it will be enough for the attacking side to drink several pots."

"In addition, there are riots in many places now. You know this. Most of the local troops are suppressing the rioters, but they don't have time to fight for the king. Although the king of Tianzi Wudao is asking for it, it is the ancestor's instruction. But after all, the little faint king on the dragon chair still occupies a position, and there are still generals who are loyal to him everywhere."

"If it snows in winter, then next year will not suffer from huge natural disasters like this year. Most of the rioters are refugees who have no way out. If the disaster eases, many people still have to go back to farm. Father Wang said, these people, as long as they have a way out , there will be no rebellion, and the local army will be able to breathe, and then reorganize their troops to King Jingqin."

"Then if you take down Shangjing, won't these people come to Beijing?" Qingzhu was a little curious.

If the local army really wants to enter King Qin of Jing, then after taking down Shangjing, these people will come as usual, but it is easier to switch positions between defending the city and attacking the city.

"Shangjing is at the meeting, but at that time it will be regarded as a pilgrimage to congratulate the new king." Princess Anle looked at Qingzhu, and continued to explain: "Because of the Taizu's death, as long as the father can win the Shangjing City, Xiaohunjun will be able to go to Zen smoothly." As long as these generals don't want to rebel, they won't do anything to us, but they will sincerely congratulate us."

"Okay, it's a bit hard to understand, but I figured it out." Qingzhu shook his head, nodded again, and continued: "However, I'm afraid half a month won't work. To play a key role, we have to do at least a few dozen A hot air balloon like this, otherwise, it’s just a drop in the bucket.”

"We can only try to get everyone to catch up with work." Princess Anle said, and said: "It's a pity that this training is like sailing against the current. Once the drill stops, the soldiers will go backwards, even worse than before. Otherwise, let everyone How good it is to practice at the daily limit and work hard."

"We can't always kill the chicken to get the eggs." Qingzhu also nodded after listening to Princess Anle's words.

"Yeah, I can't kill chickens to get eggs. Unfortunately, I can only use knives and guns, and I can't play with that little needle and thread. Otherwise, I can't wait to help." Princess Anle said, looking at her hands.

"No, I won't either." Qingzhu smiled, and said again: "However, we can still help."

"What?" Princess Anle looked at Qingzhu and asked.

"It's okay to help with the thread and pull the cloth in the early stage. As for the later, soak the cloth bag with alum and rosin, but we don't need needlework. We can also help." Qingzhu laughed.

"It's true, then let's go help after the inspection." Princess Anle said with a smile.

"That's fine, but when the time comes, just don't scare them." Qingzhu nodded, thinking of that scene, she felt it was funny, but she also felt that with Princess Anle joining, these people would work harder.
