"Weiwei has activated the cloud cover here, and has conducted reconnaissance around the suburbs of Chang'an. There is currently no unrest, but we have tried to capture a ray of gold and blend it into the gray wolf." Fazheng said with a gloomy expression.
"You guys are really efficient." Chen Xi was stunned for a moment. You guys have verified it so quickly.
"The third wave of spray is over, isn't it soon?" Guo Jia said angrily, "The golden threads integrated into the gray wolf's body will release a large amount of information. Whether the gray wolf can accept it is one thing, but as long as it is integrated He will go into a rage."
There's actually nothing to say about this. Anyone else would go berserk if they were stuffed with something they couldn't figure out while sleeping in their comfort zone.
"The simple conclusion is to beat the drums, release the scout cavalry, order the local militia to get weapons from the treasury, and start sweeping the wilderness. No matter what kind of animal it is, as long as it is aggressive, kill it directly!" Li You did not hide it at all! own murderous intent.
Li You didn't have much expression when he ordered the family to be exterminated, let alone killing some wild beasts. Killing one when he encountered one, and killing two when he encountered two. Indiscriminate killing without moral traps was Li You's favorite job. , just kill kill kill!
"What should we do over there at the ranch?" Chen Xi directly pointed out the northern Xinjiang, which is currently facing a huge problem.
When he came, Chen Xi had already thought about it. Compared with most residential areas in the Central Plains, which had been killed several times by Han Dynasty militiamen, even if there were still vicious incidents of wild beasts hurting people every year, in addition to this incident of wild beasts awakening spirits, , may lead to a larger-scale beast attack, but after all, the core area of the Central Plains is where the terrifying erect ape has killed countless times, even if there is one, it can be held down.
But as for Northern Xinjiang, Northern Xinjiang itself has fewer people and more animals. Coupled with the huge scale of the ranch, the ratio of cattle, sheep and herdsmen is probably less than 100:1. If this is a turmoil, it will not be like the situation in Africa. It must be suppressed first.
More importantly, compared to the situation in Africa, the ranches here are all the assets of the Han Dynasty. This is directly equivalent to fighting with the assets of the Han Dynasty on the territory of the Han Dynasty. Chen Xi felt like his heart was beating. It's bleeding!
"Call the army and go directly north!" Li You said extremely positively.
"It's spring here now. How are you going to transport the cattle and sheep back after you've killed them?" Chen Xi almost cursed. "And even if we don't mention this, to put it bluntly, there are now a total of twenty-two pastures in the north. Even if they are transferred, Even the border troops are too late!"
There is indeed a large army stationed in the north, but the number is completely different from what it was back then. Because the Hu people have been completely swept to death, the behavior of the troops stationed in the north is pure inertia, but the number is far less than it was back then.
"More importantly, do you know how many cattle and sheep there are in the north?" Chen Xi's voice rose slightly, "That's calculated in tens of millions. Nowadays, people in the north no longer count the sheep when buying and selling them, but just point to the terrain. , from this ditch, to that ditch, do you know what it means!"
The sweat on Li You's forehead has faintly seeped out. It's not that Li You lacks wisdom, but that only Chen Xi has the most accurate data about the northern Xinjiang ranch. Li You and others only know a rough idea, but just thinking about it by the end of the year can If you sell meat at a low price to the people, you will know that there is a lot of it.
But Li You never thought that this large number would be exaggerated to this extent.
When Chen Xi asked Cookie to research forage, Cookie spent a lot of time to develop a relatively high-yield pasture. Relying on green reserves and livestock, the large ranch was able to transform from relying on the sky to relying on technology. Although God may be too cruel , the whole year without summer, still had to die, but God also wanted to give Chen Zichuan face, so the technological breakthrough directly killed the former herding.
It is also based on this that the number of cattle and sheep is soaring.
"Send troops and issue recruitment orders to Youzhou, Bingzhou, and Liangzhou." Liu Bei said directly. At this time, it's nonsense. Just thinking about tens of millions of cattle and sheep rushing out, even if they don't rush into the Han Dynasty, Just running away would be a huge loss.
"Be prepared for the worst." After Liu Bei gave the order, he turned to Chen Xi and said.
"The worst is to recover to Yuan Feng for five years. What's there to be afraid of?" Chen Xi said with a dark face, "I don't believe that I will be so unlucky as to all the shepherds."
Even if everything explodes, there will always be something less explosive. "
"Issue an edict to rush 800 miles to inform all the Han Dynasties to be prepared, allow the militia to access the treasury equipment, and order all localities to issue military equipment." Liu Tong had already changed into palace clothes at this time and rushed. Come here, speak directly after entering.
"Ah, Your Highness Princess?" Chen Xi was stunned when he saw Liu Tong. Didn't you run away a few days ago? I was planning to find you back to prepare a recruitment order.
"Si Niang took me directly back from Yanzhou." Liu Tong waved his hand and said, "The national movement was unstable and it was impossible for me to go out, so I came back. Let's solve the current problem first. What is the cause of the matter? "
"We already have an accurate answer to the reason." Zhuge Liang said very tiredly. The Han Dynasty captured part of the golden thread. Zhuge Liang used Wu Yuan's spiritual talent, and then peeked into the situation when the golden thread was formed. .
Although Zhuge Liang did not use this too rogue spiritual talent as well as Wu Yuan himself, he could still do it by simply searching for some answers. Seeing Perennis from the traces attached to these golden threads, Zhuge Liang also Can't understand.
"Is it the Roman Empire again?" Liu Tong felt as if his head was sinking a little. "Are they having nothing to do? Why is every change in the world their problem?"
"Probably because there are only three countries left in the world, and we are at war with the Kushans, and only Rome has nothing to do." Fazheng also had a look of disgust. There was no way, the Roman Empire had nothing to do, and when the Empire had nothing to do, If you don't do something, it wouldn't be strange.
"Can we ask them to compensate?" Liu Tong said with a somewhat tentative tone, "Our losses this time are really quite big."
"If we really didn't participate this time, it is purely Rome's fault. We can try to make some compensation." Guo Jia said quite tiredly, but if he feels his conscience, this matter has nothing to do with them at all, that is Nonsense.
In this case, what else is there to say? Let’s not talk about the eldest brother, the second brother. The only one who is qualified to ask for compensation is probably Guishang, but Guishang probably has no intention of asking for any compensation. After all, if you really want to say it, now this is A few accidents, guarding human civilization, such a big thing will inevitably lead to some sacrifices, things that can't be helped.
"We can only deal with our own situations." Li You sighed and said, "Let the counties at all levels use their weapons and start cleaning up directly."
As he spoke, Li You looked at Liu Bei. This order was actually very dangerous. In fact, the rise of local powerful forces at the end of the Han Dynasty was actually from the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Emperor Ling allowed various localities to use military force to suppress it. After all, after local military power, It is inevitable that there will be ambition.
Therefore, when Li You spoke, he looked at Liu Bei, because only Liu Bei could give this order, and if you think about it maliciously, this is actually a test of Liu Bei's ability to control local military power. If he can even control this, there will be no other orders. People, stop struggling, wait until Liu Bei is dead, otherwise it will be a joke.
"Release arms?" Liu Bei thought for a moment. As an old man who had experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he also understood the consequences of this order. However, after thinking for a while, Liu Bei agreed to the order.
It's not Liu Bei's fault. As long as no one is messing around in this matter, with Liu Bei's current ability to know several elite militiamen in each village, there is basically no such nonsense as local military power being out of control. Besides, Chen Xi still has control over it. financial power.
"Let the common people release some of their weapons." Chen Xi suddenly said.
In fact, large-scale villages that have completed the merging of villages have some armaments. If these armaments belong to individuals, they can be disposed of in accordance with the law. Basically, they can be classified as a rebellion and stored in the village arsenal. The militia captain and the village chief, as well as the decentralized supply and marketing cooperative president, who is in charge of the money, jointly manage it. If necessary, it is reasonable and legal to use it.
Of course, this is just a theory. When Yuan Feng was in Jizhou in the seventh year, Chen Xi had already realized that there must be some problems with local armament management.
Although that time in Nanpi, the old men who rushed out of the house were all standing behind Liu Bei, but they were really wearing armor and carrying long weapons, and even some
crossbow.
Theoretically speaking, these people could have rebelled, but Liu Bei and Chen Xi did not pursue the matter afterwards and pretended not to see it. At most, Chen Xi dealt with many people who managed the treasury afterwards.
Of course, when Chen Xi went to the Ganges River later, he also informed Zhuge Liang that he should remember to check the armor and stomach reserves in various local treasuries to see if there was any theft and sale. The buyer would not be held accountable, but the seller Chen Xi really had to catch and take care of it. .
Needless to say later, this situation naturally exists everywhere, but how to put it, the IQ of the working people is really infinite, and there are several ideas that Chen Xi thinks better, but the people develop better - himself It was the militia. After verification, they got a batch of instructions for using weapons and equipment, and they just kept it...
According to Chen Xi's classification, professional soldiers always have armor and a full set of armaments. Militiamen only have full sets of armor during training or in emergencies. They do not belong to the professional soldier system, but those who have equipment are usually led by local militia captains. of those five people.
The latest version of the situation that has emerged is that veterans who return to their hometown from the battlefield and become militia captains directly recruit all the young and strong men in the village, fight, rank them, and then directly issue armors according to their combat effectiveness. This is already impossible. The situation can be relied upon.
In short, there has been a lot of fun because of the decentralization of weapons and equipment to local governments. It is purely a dream to expect that you can manage weapons and equipment at the village level in full compliance with regulations.
"Except for things like crossbows, armored stomachs and long weapons, I think they can be delegated to the common people." Chen Xi said slowly.
"I think if you decentralize it like this, according to our current situation, every household will save a set for their young and strong men." Li You frowned, "This is no longer a question of cost, but how we really do it. No."
Even if all the people are soldiers, it is impossible to really have tens of millions of sets of armor. That is no joke. Once Chen Xi relaxes arms and allows armors and long weapons to flow into the people, then in the Han Dynasty, an environment full of martial virtues, Then we really have to prepare for every household to have armor.
This is simply not available!
Once the country is unable to provide so much armor, the people will inevitably find ways to get it together, and there are only so many ways to get it together. In the end, it is nothing more than selling iron and forging the armor themselves. But once it enters the mode of selling iron, the Han Dynasty will have to Crazy import of steel output to people's livelihood, in essence, nothing has changed.
To be honest, no one here knows the issue of armaments output better than Li You. The Han Dynasty's steel output has been higher every year, but it is still not enough. Basically, after the steel output increases, the demand increases further. At present, Li You cannot see the possibility of being satisfied.
In Li You's eyes, many times, after the emergence of steel output, some things that did not use steel at all will naturally profit part of the output, making it seem as if they need steel themselves, and then there are New demands are constantly emerging and there is no solution.
At least now, Li You can't see any signs of sufficient steel output. There is always a feeling that no matter how much steel is produced, it will not be enough.
In fact, Li You feels right. Things like steel will never be enough until a country goes against the grain.
The problem is that a certain country proved against the odds and proved that steel output can reach enough. It produced more than one billion tons of steel, and besides this data, there was a huge amount of underreporting. Based on this data, the average Measure and cut in half. as a hypothesis.
In the current environment of the Han Dynasty, tens of millions of tons were needed to be produced annually. But is this data for an agricultural country?
No, this steel production was a figure that only a top industrial country could have during World War II. A country with this kind of steel production would have been able to aspire to the top spot before 1950!
But it's only the seventh year of the third century. Let's be direct. Don't dream. Chen Xi doesn't even have the absurd idea that there is enough steel. He lets Zhuge Liang report the steel gap. Do whatever you want. It's just this little output anyway. You guys Find a way to divide it. If you don't have enough, just use other things to make up. You can survive without so much steel before, so just mess around.
Counting on sufficient steel production, I want to eat shit!
"Take your time, first
The remaining 700,000, oh, there are still 700,000 scale armor and chain armor. Let's get rid of this first. It has been in stock for many years. "Chen Xi waved his hands indifferently and said.
