Start with a hero

Chapter 137 Conquering (510)

Li Yizhi smiled mysteriously, and said: "Actually, what should be said, I believe that kid Kou Zhong has already told you, so I won't repeat it here. How about this, you have a good rest tonight, and I will take you to a place tomorrow. "

Although Li Jing was puzzled, he didn't ask any further questions. He smiled heartily and said, "Okay, everything will be arranged by the supervisor."

Susu hurriedly said: "Boss, can I bring Susu with me tomorrow, I want to see it too."

Li Yizhi pondered, then said: "Yes."

…………

The next day, early morning.

Li Yizhi brought Li Jing and Susu to the head of the Beggars' Clan in the west of the city.

Compared with all the forces in the world, Li Yizhi knew that his own conditions were not very attractive to Li Jing.

Therefore, if he wanted to attract Li Jing, he had to show him something different.

First of all, Li Yizhi brought Li Jing and Susu to the weapons workshop.

In the tall and spacious weapons workshop, the huge punching machine was working bang bang bang bang, quickly stamping various weapons into shape.

Next, as long as you equip it with the front, it will be an excellent weapon.

In the current weapons workshop, the weapons are mainly knives, swords, and spears, and a small amount of armor is also produced.

As soon as they entered the weapons workshop, Li Jing and Su Su's eyes were straightened, and they watched the assembly line production in a daze, and a large number of weapons were made and shaped.

They are no strangers to weapons, and in their minds, the making of weapons should be forged through time-consuming and labor-intensive forging by blacksmiths.

But there will be like here, so easy and fast.

"Don't think that the weapons here are fragile because they are not forged. In fact, we use high-quality fine steel, which doesn't need to be tempered at all, so it can be stamped directly."

Li Yizhi casually picked up a sword blank, handed it to Li Jing, and said: "As long as this sword blank is equipped and opened, it is a first-class sophisticated weapon, and it is not inferior to the weapons of the Dongming sect."

"Leading soldiers to fight, although it is the strategy of the general and the courage of the soldiers, the weapons are also very important. Imagine that on the battlefield, our weapons can easily cut off the opponent's weapons, and can be replenished at any time. Who is our opponent?"

Although the iron smelting technology in the Sui and Tang Dynasties was already very high, the efficiency has always been low, and blacksmiths have to be honed.

A high-quality fine steel sword may require tens of days of tempering by several people to complete, and the cost is extremely high.

Therefore, ordinary weapons are ordinary iron weapons.

But even so, in this period of chaos, it is extremely rare for a soldier to have a weapon in his hand.

For the more rebels, only the elite troops would be equipped with iron weapons. Others used sticks and other weapons with one end sharpened and used as spears.

Li Jing took the sword blank excitedly, he caressed it lightly, then flicked it with his fingers, and a clear and clear sword chant resounded melodiously.

"Good sword, good sword!"

Li Jing came from the Jianghuai army, and he knew the condition of the rebel army's weapons best.

As Li Yizhi said, among the huge Jianghuai army, only one-third of the army is equipped with iron weapons, and the styles are still varied, and the quality is not good.

After a big battle, they will basically curl their blades, and then go back to the furnace for rebuilding.

Only people above the corporal leader could have a fine steel sword like his.

If the entire army is equipped with such fine steel weapons, he can say that the Jianghuai Army may be able to sweep the world, and its combat power can at least be doubled.

Li Yizhi turned his head and asked Tian Wen beside him, "Mr. Tian, ​​how many weapons can our weapon workshop produce in a day?"

Hearing this, Li Jing quickly looked at Tian Wen.

Tian Wen stroked his beard and said proudly: "As long as there is enough fine steel, we can produce three hundred knives, three hundred sword handles, one thousand spear heads, and fifty armor pieces a day."

Li Jing gasped, such a huge output came from such a small weapons workshop.

If the scale is further expanded, I am afraid that this number will double, and it will only take a few months to arm tens of thousands of troops.

Susu was also shocked, her small mouth was so long that she couldn't close it.

However, Li Yizhi's expression was flat. This output is really low for people who have experienced the impact of modern productivity.

Next, Li Yizhi led Li Jing and the two to visit various workshops, even including the mint.

He wants to give Li Jing the strongest impact, telling the other party that although he has a shallow background, with his strong industrial capabilities, he can completely destroy all hostile forces, including those thousand-year-old families.

Finally, they came to the school.

This is actually what Li Yizhi values ​​the most. Now it is divided into civil and military colleges, attracting a large number of students.

However, education cannot be accomplished overnight, and it will take more than ten years to gradually show the effect.

However, this did not hinder Li Jing's imagination.

With a strong production force of weapons, a huge source of money, and a school dedicated to training civil servants and generals, Li Jing has no doubt that Li Yizhi will be the one who will conquer the world in the future.

Even if the foundations of the four major clans are deep, they will only end up being destroyed in the end.

Li Jing was completely conquered, let alone Su Su.

At this moment, she suddenly realized that although her master had a huge foundation, compared with Li Yizhi, he was really powerless.

"I'm ashamed to say that this time I was invited by Brother Kou and Brother Xu to come to Yangzhou. In fact, I just couldn't refuse. I plan to send Susu to Xingyang after meeting the manager."

Li Jing bowed and said frankly: "Now Li Jing wants to get a job under the general manager's command, and I hope the general manager will agree."

Li Yizhi laughed, and said: "It is my honor to be able to serve General Li. It just so happens that I have a position here, which is very suitable for you."

Li Jing straightened his expression and said, "Please give orders to the manager."

"Presumably you also know that the [-] Yangzhou army stationed in Quanjiao County. Yu Chisheng neglected his duties. He even went out to hunt in the barracks during the confrontation between the two armies, and was assassinated in the end."

Li Yizhi paused, and said with a smile: "Now the emperor has appointed me as the general manager of Yangzhou, commanding [-] Yangzhou troops. However, I am going to sit in Yangzhou now, and I am short of a general to lead the Yangzhou army for me."

Li Jing trembled all over, and said excitedly: "What does the general manager mean, you want me to command the Yangzhou army?"

"That's right. I know that General Li came from a famous family and is known for his great talents. He should be more than enough to command the [-] Yangzhou Army."

Li Yizhi nodded and said, he still had some headaches, how to control the Yangzhou Army.

Now that Li Jing is here, it is natural to use it.

With Li Jing's ability, I'm afraid it won't be long before the Jianghuai army can be put down.

Du Fuwei, who came from a reckless background, could not be Li Jing's opponent at all.

Li Jing was moved, and suddenly had the urge to die for his confidant.

He took a deep breath, bowed solemnly, and said in a deep voice: "Thank you for your trust, Mr. Li, you don't have to live up to expectations."

Su Su said happily: "Congratulations, Brother Li."

Although Tian Wen didn't know why Li Yizhi valued Li Jing so much, he entrusted him with such a heavy responsibility after meeting him for the first time.

However, he knew that Li Yizhi would definitely not be aimless, and he must have his own reasons.

Li Yizhi helped Li Jing up, and was about to explain something to him, when he saw Shi Long walking quickly.

Shi Long glanced at Li Jing and Su Su, hesitant, Li Yizhi saw this and explained: "Daoist Shi, if you have something to say, General Li is one of his own."

Shi Long nodded to Li Jing, and then said to Li Yizhi: "Yizhi, I just received a report from the people below that it was Du Fuwei who appeared in Yangzhou City."

"What, Du Fuwei actually arrived in Yangzhou?"

Not only Li Yizhi, but even Li Jing were shocked.

You know, there are [-] Yangzhou troops stationed in Quanjiao County, and Du Fuwei took Li Yang not long ago.

This Du Fuwei didn't want to stabilize the place and defend the Yangzhou army, so he came to Yangzhou. How much heart is there.

Even with Fu Gongyou in charge, it would be a bit of a joke.
