Chapter 18 Building Weapons and Repairing Weapons
Nie Zefeng walked out of the residence quietly alone, followed by Pei Yuanshao holding a long sword in his hand. He strolled to the war room next to the meeting hall.
The west wind whistled through the leaves in front of the meeting hall of the General's Mansion, and the leaves gently crossed the front of the General's Mansion. Nie Zefeng looked up and saw that there were still dim lights in the war room.
Nie Zefeng pushed open the door and saw a middle-aged man in his thirties using an oil lamp to look at the map of the feudal kingdoms.
"Wen He, is that you?"
"Marshal, I pay my respects to the marshal. How did the marshal know it was mine?"
"Among the three armies, is there anyone who cares more about the situation in the world than Wen He? What did the general see?"
"Sir, I saw..."
"Sir, have you seen that you are surrounded by enemies on all sides..."
"Marshal, Wancheng is in the place of the Fourth War. To the east is Cao Cao of Xuchang, behind us is Zhang Lu of Hanzhong, above us are Xiliang soldiers and Qiang and other armed forces, below us is Liu Biao, and there are various rebellions in other places
Armed, we can only gain a foothold by constantly attacking."
"If you want to attack a city, you must first use weapons. I think we should make some magical weapons and then choose some suitable places as targets for attack."
"Marshal, I have just planned the purpose of the attack. In the north, Cao Cao has strong soldiers and horses. The Qiang people in the north are located in a remote area. Even if they capture it, they will have to raise troops by force. Huainan has gone through several battles and cannot resume production in a short time. So only Jingzhou, with its outstanding people and land, can raise troops.
Five hundred thousand, we will pay Liu Zhang to the west, and the princes to the north and south, and then go north to fight for supremacy. After the north is settled, we will dominate the world."
Nie Zefeng held up his arm and photographed, "Okay, okay, if we follow what Wen He said, I think we will be able to dominate the world in less than ten years."
"But, Marshal, although our troops and horses are excellent, our weapons and equipment are relatively outdated. How can we capture these high walls with high walls and deep pools?"
"Sawtooth sky bow, crossbow bed, shotgun, elevated arrow tower, gunpowder..."
Nie Zefeng told these weapons that Jia Xu had never heard of, and he was immediately stunned.
"No, no, Wen He, I will draw these things into drawings tomorrow and study them one by one."
The two chatted happily, laughing from time to time, and before they knew it, it was the next day.
The next day, Nie Zefeng happily walked out of the war room next to the council hall. The moment he stepped forward, everyone saw that he was holding Jia Xu's hand on his left and right. The two of them arrived at the General's Mansion still talking and laughing.
meeting hall.
When Nie Zefeng reached his commanding position, all the generals stood up and prostrated themselves.
"Join the marshal."
"Everyone is here, then I will announce something important today?"
Nie Zefeng slowly leaned over from the chair he was leaning on and lay down on the handsome case.
"You guys go first, I plan to capture the nine counties of Jingxiang."
As soon as these words came out, there was a lot of discussion immediately.
"Liu Biao has an army of three hundred thousand. Liu Biao has been running Jingzhou for many years... Although our cavalry is invincible, some places in Jingzhou are really rugged..."
At this time, Jia Xu was the first to speak: "Marshal is wise. Jingzhou has been the place of the Four Wars since ancient times. With transportation in all directions, if we occupy Jingzhou, we can conquer the Central Plains by going north, conquering Jiangnan by the south, and conquering Bashu by the west. However, Liu Biao is not a good defender."
As a villain, as long as we try our best, we will succeed."
"Mr. Jia, it's the brothers who are fighting, not you, of course you can just use your mouth. Do you know that I, the Xiliang Cavalry, are good at fighting in the field and not good at attacking cities and villages?"
At this time, Nie Zefeng looked at the general below who dared to rebuke him directly. Nie Zefeng's eyes were fixed on him. He was Xiliang Cavalry Colonel Liu He.
After Liu He finished his speech, there were more arguments. Some wanted to hold the main station, while others wanted to stay in place and stay nearby.
………………
Nie Zefeng pulled out the sword from his waist and swung it away, cutting off half of the wooden case.
"Starting today, preparations will begin to send troops to Jingzhou. We will set off in three months. The generals of each battalion will go back and prepare to recruit troops. Mr. Jia and Liu He will stay, and the others can go back first."
Everyone left one after another. The generals left with great dignity, because it was the world of warriors. The civil servants shook their heads blindly, because in their opinion, it was impossible.
"Marshal, what are your orders?"
"General Liu, why do you object to my sending troops to Jingzhou?"
"Marshal, I'm just worried that our troops are relatively small. I only have about 30,000 troops. How can we withstand an army of 300,000? Plus our equipment is not repaired. I'm afraid it will be difficult to capture the high walls of Jingzhou.
Our entire army may be annihilated under Jingzhou City, please Marshal think twice."
"Okay, General Liu, now I officially appoint you as the general of the Armed Forces Bureau of the Armed Forces, and designate you as the Zhonglang General. You will be responsible for making the equipment I put in. General Liu, Mr. Jia, come here."
Nie Zefeng, Jia Xu, and Liu He studied the saw-tooth sky bow, crossbow bed, shotgun, elevated arrow tower, gunpowder and other things one by one. Three days passed unknowingly, and the three of them laughed.
