Only a dozen spirit stones were not enough, so Wang Jing immediately asked the navy to select 300 people who were proficient in water properties, and asked them to go into the water to pick up the spirit stones. After collecting 500 spirit stones, they returned to the city.
"Let someone find a few Taoists who are good at spells and seals and bring them to the Construction Department..."
Wang Jing ordered immediately after returning.
Sihong is the core of Zhennan Military Mansion and is densely populated.
When the Zhennan Army expands again in the future and establishes prefectures and counties, this city must be the prefecture city of Sizhou.
At this time, there were 200,000 to 300,000 people in the city, including children of aristocratic families, wealthy families, businessmen, and people from various dynasties with all kinds of personalities gathered here. There is something for everyone.
It is easy to find a few Taoists. As for whether these Taoists are really good at spells, talismans, and seals, it depends on whether they have received the true inheritance.
After receiving the order, the leader of the personal guard immediately sent someone to find the Sihong County Lieutenant to ask him for help.
A dozen Taoists were quickly found.
Wang Jing had already brought the spirit stone to the Construction Department, and Zhao Jianguo, the head of the Construction Department, came to greet him.
"Brother!"
Zhao Jianguo has not been beaten by all kinds of reality, and his character is relatively pure. He and Wang Jing are the only brothers in the military mansion.
Brothers from the source world is just a polite term.
In ancient times, calling each other brothers meant that the friendship between the two parties was extremely deep and extraordinary.
Zhao Jianguo didn't realize this. Anyway, Wang Jing called him brother, so he called Wang Jing brother.
It was also because of this title that he gained the trust of General Zhennan in the eyes of many people.
Therefore, many officials and craftsmen in the Construction Department obeyed his advice, which reduced a lot of internal friction.
Wang Jing laughed and took Zhao Jianguo's shoulder. The two of them walked into the construction department while joking.
The Construction Department has a special craftsman camp on the outskirts of the city, which is divided into the Military Building Academy, the Armor Building Academy, the Bow and Crossbow Academy, the Equipment Academy and so on.
"There are now 10,000 Divine Arm Bows. Shen Changshi sent people to temporarily stop the Divine Arm Bows and sent people to forge weapons and armor first..."
Zhao Jianguo kept talking about the current tasks of the Construction Department.
Zhennan Military Mansion has organized and trained 130,000 soldiers. They seem to be strong and strong, but most of them don't even have a pair of leather armor.
The military uniforms they wear are mainly cold-proof jackets and coarse cloth clothing.
Those who can have leather armor are junior officers such as corps commanders.
Those who can wear iron armor are the backbone of the army with more than a hundred households. Including leather armor, the armor coverage rate of an army of more than 100,000 is also very low.
What is the fastest way to improve the combat effectiveness of the army?
In addition to rigorous training, there are also weapons and armor!
There is a huge difference in strength between soldiers with armor and soldiers without armor.
Without armor to protect the body, even a battle-hardened warrior cannot withstand the siege of a few people on the battlefield, but if there is armor to protect the body, he will have another sharp weapon in his hand.
The strength directly increases tenfold, and he can rush into the formation and kill the enemy at will.
Now that the changes between heaven and earth have stopped, and the grain maturity time in farmland has returned to normal, it will not be long before the Five Rivers Qin tribe will be short of food.
At that time, the military government will send a large army to attack.
The crossbow formation composed of 10,000 god-armed bows is the most powerful weapon of the Sihong army, and it is enough.
But the soldiers and generals of the Sihong Army lacked armor.
When going into battle in the future, there will definitely be a lot of losses. Now, seize the time to build some armor and distribute it, which can greatly reduce the casualties of the soldiers.
Wang Jing entered the Zhujia Yard and observed for a while.
Ding-ding-ding-ding!
The blacksmiths in the yard are constantly forging armor pieces, and there is also a burly blacksmith who has practiced the military forging method holding a sledgehammer to forge plate armor.
These blacksmiths are so powerful that when the sledgehammer falls, the red-hot iron ingots are hammered into pieces.
After the iron sheets were formed, they were simply soaked in water to cool, and then strung together on both sides with tough ropes to form a relatively crude upper body armor.
"Shen Changshi's request was too urgent, so the blacksmith had no choice but to build the armor as quickly as possible... These armors are for ordinary soldiers! They look simple, but they can prevent random arrows and swords!"
Zhao Jianguo explained.
"Right now, the tools in the Construction Department are not complete. When I have more time, I will go to the river to build a machine that uses hydraulic stamping. By then, we will be able to produce hundreds of pieces of plate armor every day!"
Wang Dingding nodded.
According to Zhao Jianguo, the crude half-body armor made at the fastest speed can produce three hundred pairs per day.
In ten days, a battalion of three thousand soldiers can be armed.
Make them armored elites.
Currently, the Construction Department has forged 5,000 pairs of this type of armor, 3,000 of which have been sent to the Central Guards Army, and the General of the Guards, Si Xingfang, is personally distributing them.
"Yes, thank you for your hard work. If we can defeat a strong enemy, the armor and weapons you forged will be the greatest contributors!"
Wang Jing praised without hesitation.
After Zhao Jianguo was praised a few times, he couldn't help but smile. In Zhennan Military Mansion, he was in charge of the Construction Department and had a high status.
Normally, Wang Jing would continue to send people to deliver things, such as a few pretty maids, beast meat that can strengthen the blood, muscles and bones...
Both status and dignity are sufficient.
After Zhao Jianguo came to the mainland of China, he suffered few setbacks, and he did not go to the battlefield in person like Wang Jing, transforming himself on the battlefield of blood and fire.
He is very satisfied with the status quo.
"Lord! There are fifteen Taoists in total, waiting to be summoned outside the courtyard!"
At this time, the guards came forward to report.
Taoist?
Zhao Jianguo was stunned for a moment, wondering why Wang Jing called the Taoist Taoist Construction Department.
"Let them in!"
Wang Jing gave an order, then reached out to take the spirit stone from the bodyguard beside him, and said: "Brother Zhao, this is a spirit stone formed by the condensation of spiritual energy. It contains extremely powerful power!"
"Do you think there is a way to induce the spiritual energy in the spiritual stone to act as energy source?"
Zhao Jianguo quickly took the spirit stone and observed it carefully.
At this time, a dozen Taoists who looked like immortals also came in. After they came in, they first saluted Wang Jing.
Wang Jing's eyes flashed with inspiration.
The details of these dozen Taoists suddenly appeared in their eyes.
"These three Taoist priests will stay. The others will each be given five stones of food. Please retreat first!"
Among the dozen or so Taoists, only three had slightly stronger spiritual powers and more or less mastered some spells.
The three Taoists who were left behind were not experts.
He just mastered some talisman and illusion skills.
"There are three spirit stones here. You can try to see if you can use the spirit stones to cast talisman spells!"
Wang Jing ordered directly.
What he practices is White Dragon Gang Qi. Although it is derived from the Nanhua Taoist Scriptures, which is the supreme inheritance of Taoism, he is not following the Taoist path of being born in the world, but the way of a military commander that contains the true meaning of Taoism.
The combination of spiritual power and Gang Qi is very deep. Even with strong spiritual power, it can affect the outside world.
But before breaking through to a certain level, Taoist magic spells cannot be cast temporarily.
The three Taoists picked up the spirit stones and immediately started trying them.
call!
One of the Taoists held the spirit stone and silently recited the magic formula. The spiritual energy in the spirit stone was suddenly touched, and a breeze floated. Make this Taoist's body become light and airy.
This is the light body technique in Taoist magic...
