"What this is said is the right reason." Sun Anle said: "I have a man under 20 or 60 years old, as long as I have the courage to follow you!"

Li Dayong gritted his teeth and said, "We are not as crowded as Dongshan, but we can gather a hundred or ten people."

Ma Huaxian said: "I can also get one or two hundred people out there."

Chang Wei said to everyone: "It's easy to get enough people, but most of them are mobs, so those who are not brave enough and have not received a guard training once, so it's better not to take them, so as not to be scared to pee when they see the thief and become insulting the morale of the army."

Speaking of this, everyone was a little ashamed. Among the iron fields in Lingqiu, only the iron fields in Heyusheng attach the most importance to guard training. The guard team in Heyusheng iron fields is not large, but the training is very strict. There will be a rotation of archer teams and mature officers to help train miners. The trained miners can receive subsidies and eat much better, so many people are willing to receive military training... It is not everyone who wants to join the army. After all, not everyone is willing to leave their hometowns, but for training, it is hard for the morning to eat braised pork at noon, which is a sacrifice for the miners.

However, the owners of each family are unwilling to pay for subsidies and are not willing to make trouble, so only Dongshanhui has conducted rotation training in the rest of the iron field. Most of the other families are going through the motions and giving Zhang Han a little face. Now that I think about it, I am really stupid.

"Zhang Dongzhu really counts everything ahead." Li Dayong sighed: "I am really convinced now."

Chang Wei smiled but said nothing, Zhang Han really saw farther than ordinary people.

In fact, even Chang Wei didn't know that ten years later, large households in Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan and other places began to carry out group training, and many large households built villages to protect themselves. The peasant army flew around and did not necessarily conquer those villages that had to be killed and injured before they were killed. However, the situation of large households without any precautions was extremely miserable.

A major failure in the late Ming Dynasty was that the imperial court's control was too poor, and even the Qing Dynasty was far from enough, so it did not make good use of spontaneous group training, let alone take the initiative to organize group training.

After the middle of the Qing Dynasty, the court began to pay attention to the training of the group. After the extermination of the White Lotus Sect, it used the training of the group. When the Taiping Army arrived, it even promoted the training of the group. There were training ministers from each province to supervise the training of local townships. In fact, the Taiping Army was eliminated by the townships.

The general group training is for the wealthy to defend their own lives. The Hunan Army is actually to protect traditional values ​​and magnify the version of the rural bravery.

"The iron field of weapons is enough," Chang Wei looked at the Riying and said, "It's the end of Chen and before the Shen period, everyone sent their own personnel to bring more food and bedding, and stationed in Duyuling to protect the safety of Dongshan. As for the county town to be in the east, we don't have to pay attention to it."

"Okay, that's it."

"Let's listen to Zhongwei."

"It's not my opinion." Chang Wei smiled and said, "We all listen to Lord Zhang."

“Yes, yes!”

This time, everyone's tone no longer hesitated and turned to very enthusiastic and sincere.

...

"Everyone is in the eye!"

“Check if the backpack strap is tied and firm!”

"Check the carrying of the bird gun."

"Are the projectile box, leather belt, gunpowder bottle, and medicine bottle all hung up!"

"Check the kettle, lunch box, sewing kit, medical first aid kit!"

"Check military uniforms, boots."

The sun at noon is pretty good, and it feels very warm when sunlight on people. Sun Yao stood at the head of the team.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) Shengsheng issued an order. With his military order, the officers of the three squads urged their subordinates to conduct inspections. Each soldier helped the other party check the equipment face to face. After the inspection was completed, the three squad officials reported to Sun Yao respectively. Finally, each flag captain reported to the General General of the Bureau. After the inspection was completed, the action began.

Dozens of large trucks filled with supplies have already set off first. This kind of four-wheeled truck is specially designed according to the situation of many mountain roads. The body is narrower and the load is much lessened. The connection between the wheels and the bearing axle is reinforced. At the same time, there are many accessories. Craftsmen are also accompanying them and can be repaired at any time.

The two departments and headquarters staff began to set off in batches, and each three people formed a long column in a row. The archers carried long spears or bird guns on their shoulders, and the knife players had a small amount of iron armor on their cars, and they became the easiest group to walk.

The cavalry flag team and a small number of pond horses from each bureau were gathered together to form a temporary cavalry squadron. They were commanded by Zhu Dayong. This man was one of Duoer's deputy and was also from Jizhen. He was mature and well-off, and was very familiar with the cavalry tactics. He was ordered to form a cavalry team and conduct sentry explorations in front of the team.

The cavalry equipment is also the best now. Everyone is wearing cotton armor, and everyone has a rifle, appointing gun, bow and arrow, as well as sword cards, bones, short axes, and flying knives. Because there are few people, they are the best choices. They are constantly practicing the skills of fighting and whistle detectives every day. The officers are from night-dead and train these cavalry very well. Almost all qualified candidates are qualified.

The column is spread out according to the flag team. Each flag captain has a flag bearer holding the team flag, and each flag team has a certain spacing.

Some of the Yuanyang Warriors were walking on both sides of the team. They were equipped with sword cards to guard against sneak attacks that should not have occurred.

Tangma galloped back and forth between the teams, passing commands.

The bureau chief flag and the chief flag of the department were waving, and finally Zhang Han's inspection flag.

After Zhang Han was in the baggage team, he wanted to see the performance of the baggage. Compared with the archers, Zhang Han paid more attention to the performance of the mountain carriage.

"These cars are well made, Dongxue. You can reward relevant craftsmen after you go back."

Carriage technology has always been the core technology that He Yusheng attaches most importance to. There are more members of the carriage group than those with firearms and military weapons. The best craftsmen are also in the carriage group. It may be unimaginable for others, but for Zhang Han, such a decision is natural... Without these big carriages, his army is just a carriage without wheels, and it is difficult to gallop across.

Li Dongxuedao: "Now the technical qualification is qualified. Adults attach the most importance to the craftsmen and have a lot of funds. But now the production of carriages and related weapons is still insufficient. Many machine parts need to be made by hand, which consumes time. And because of the different standards of each craftsman when making, many parts are incompatible..."

Zhang Han looked at a carriage in front of him pulling the parts of the whole vehicle and said thoughtfully: "The main reason is that the parts are not standard, right?"

Li Dongxue nodded and said, "What sir is saying, that's it."

"The factory should do standardized management." Zhang Han said: "Now the scale has expanded. In the past, there were only a few people from Wang Debang and the others. The things brought by a master were not much different from the standardization. A veteran looked at it for a few seconds and almost all the standard parts were standardized. Now that there are too many people, this matter should be taken seriously. Dongxue, after you go back, you label all the tools, and every craftsman uses standardized unified tools and selects excellent parts.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page), and then build according to the standards. Even if the different standards are good, it is considered unqualified. Then it is grouped. For example, someone is very good at making steering shafts, so he will use this person as the standard and the craftsman. Choose a group of all the steering shafts that are worthy of playing, and the master takes the apprentice. If you succeed, you will give the relevant rewards so that they don’t hide their own personalities and don’t do anything that can teach the apprentice to starve the master to death... I haven’t thought about it all yet. Dongxue, you have to think more about it yourself, and you have to help me share my worries in this matter."

"Yes, boss." Li Dongxue couldn't help but use the old name. He said, "The wire drawing machine should be about to get things done. I see that they are sneaking around every day, and the craftsmen are trying the waterwheel hammers, rolling machines, punching machines, drilling machines. As long as the boss really buys samples, I don't think it's difficult to imitate them."

Zhang Han had sent people to Macau. The Portuguese colonists who were in charge of the firearm trading business in Macau were not Portuguese colonists, but the powerful Jesu Society at that time. This priest organization was established for only more than a hundred years, but it developed very fast and had huge power, and it was terrifying. In Asia, they also regarded missionary first, and did not blindly want to colonize and obtain wealth. The ambitious religious madmen who participated in this organization also had some professional talents who were proficient in science and technology. Some famous missionaries in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties were members of this organization.

The most famous thing about this organization was that it helped the Ming Dynasty buy a large number of heavy artillery, namely the Red Cannon, and also provided many technicians to help the Ming Dynasty cast artillery. In Dengzhou, the governor Sun Yuanhua was a disciple of Xu Guangqi and was very interested in Western weapons and military training methods. In Dengzhou, Sun Yuanhua not only used Western technicians to cast artillery, but also hired a large number of European instructors and mercenaries. Most of these people died in the later Dengzhou Rebellion. A possible military attempt by the Ming Dynasty was suspended.

Zhang Han believed that he could buy some machine tools when he sent someone to Macau. Although these machines were also very primitive, they were products of early industrialization after all. They had the beauty of mechanical things, completely different from pure handmade products... Although the lathes were also handmade.

Zhang Han thoughtfully said, "There are still many things you can do, you should pay attention to the cultivation of your reserve..."

Li Dongxue said: "Don't worry, the funding over there has always been a top priority, with sufficient money, and the uncle helping with technical matters, I don't think there is really no need to worry too much."

Zhang Han smiled and said, "What are my uncle busy with recently?"

Li Dongxue also smiled and said, "I have been busy imitating clocks recently. I have imitated many of them, but none of them left accurately, which made my uncle angry to death."

Zhang Han said: "This is not an urgent matter... The watch industry has a history of hundreds of years in Taixi. We have never been involved in this area, so we can do it well just by being anxious. Let him be calm and understand the principles, and slowly make it step by step. There will always be a day of success."

In fact, at this time, Europe was mainly focused on clocks, but it was gradually miniaturized. Unlike the previous big clocks that were more than one person tall, now there are smaller clocks. After decades, there will be very exquisite small clocks until the emergence of pocket watches. Although they are very tall, they are still much worse than others' history for hundreds of years... But Zhang Han believes that he will definitely succeed and will even be ahead of Europeans. There are no shortage of skilled craftsmen in China. Some people can imitate clocks in Suzhou, and some people can imitate telescopes. After all, this thing is not a truly difficult high technology. The gap is just that China and the West have chosen different paths in concepts and execution. Since there are the right things to learn, it will be a matter of time before we learn.
