Section 90 Comprehensive preparations
The meeting started from the beginning of Si and ended until midday. Jiang Feng also arranged for the chef to prepare lunch, which was not rich, just like an ordinary diet.
However, the significance of this meal is also extraordinary. This is the first meal after Jiang Feng came back from Bianliang to establish his absolute leadership position in the Gushi army. It is also a sign that the Daliang warrior represented by Yang Kan was included in the Gushi system.
After lunch, they disperse. Although everyone has the intention to report to the commander and commander separately, it depends on the commander and commander's arrangement.
Before the meal, Jiang Feng had already made it clear that he would discuss with Luo Zhen and He Decai if he had something to do, so naturally the others would not know the matter. What's more, Luo Zhen and He Decai are actually no longer in the military general system. One of these two is the academy classmate and close friend of the commander and the other is the former boss of the commander and the other is the commander and the other is the former boss. Of course, no one will be dissatisfied.
Compared to the sensitivity of others, Luo Zhen, a guy with thick lines, does not have so many taboos.
Jiang Feng was back, which made him very happy. However, he failed to complete the things that Jiang Feng gave him well, but this was not Luo Zhen’s own responsibility, so this made Luo Zhen very dissatisfied and complained. Before the meal, Jiang Feng was more about discussing military affairs. Luo Zhen did not have much say, but now only he and He Decai are left, so he can naturally speak out.
"Erlang, you are back. For the past twenty days you have left, the people in Gushi City are in panic. Some people jump up and down, and all the words come out. If you don't come back, I'm afraid someone will really plan to go to Xiancheng."
Luo Zhenhei lost a lot of weight. It can be seen that he has not had a good time in the past twenty days. No wonder he complained and said strange things.
The task assigned to him by Jiang Feng was very clear. The vegetation armor should continue to be made. More importantly, the design of some highly practical magical equipment based on the current wall conditions of Gushi City.
Jiang Feng knows himself very well, and he is not interested, but he can definitely rest assured about what he has given him, but he has to choose from things that can only be something that suits him. If he exceeds his ability, he must not give it to him, and he will not accept it.
"Boshan, what's the matter? If you haven't done your own business well, you will rely on others?" Jiang Feng laughed and joked.
"I'm dependent on others?" As if he was stung by a hornet, he suddenly jumped out of the chair, pointed at Jiang Feng, and said with a blushing face: "Erlang, you have to be conscientious when speaking. I have done my best to do what you arranged for me. However, why don't people give me money and I can't buy materials, how can I do it?"
"Oh, is the grass and wood armor overspend or is it delayed? Or is the cost of setting up equipment on the city defense too high?" Jiang Feng smiled.
How can he not understand my old friend?
Although I work hard, sometimes I pursue my ideal state too much and want to do everything best, but I never thought about the cost issue. This is not a single magic tool, but a batch of things. Each extra penny is a considerable expense. Each process takes half an hour more, so how much time will it take to waste?
Take the grass and wood armor as an example. If it weren't for the repeated reminders that he should use it urgently, just do it. Don't let the soldiers go to the battlefield without armor, this guy would definitely not have made the grass and wood armor so quickly, and this depends on Xu Jing's strong help.
Before leaving, Jiang Feng had consulted with county magistrate Chen Wei that the purchase and construction of grass and wood arsenal and urban defense facilities should not be stopped, and it is necessary to hurry up, so the county also needs to invest to support these two expenditures. Chen Wei also promised to guarantee the expenditure, and Jiang Feng also agreed to hand over some of the donations raised to the county for safekeeping, which is also a measure of mutual trust.
A word made Luo Zhen so hard that he couldn't speak. He stood in the middle of the hall, not knowing what to do for a moment, which made people a little funny. Even a good man like He Decai couldn't help laughing, and could only turn his face to the side and pretend that he didn't see it.
Luo Zhen hesitated for a long time before he said unwillingly: "I am also trying to make the defense of the grass and wood aids better! Shaobi has too much precipitation this year, and the toughness and tendons of the reeds are not strong enough, so I chose the reeds in Yunmengze, Anzhou. The price is a little more expensive, but the effect is definitely much better. But that guy Chen Wei actually said that there is not enough money, and there must be holes when using the city defense facilities. What is this? Aren't we working hard to defend them?"
"Don't say these words for who Boshan is working hard for. If you want to say that this is working hard for ourselves." Jiang Feng said lightly: "I won't talk about the previous things. Since the grass and wood armor is already in the process of making, it still needs time to dry and tan. What about my entrusting you and Jingniang?"
The grass and wood armor is no longer the most important now. I have asked for a batch of armor from Ezhou. Now that the relationship between Nanyang has been opened, a batch of them can be purchased urgently from the Nanyang side, but the defense facilities of the city wall are the most important, which is related to the future offensive and defensive battles with the Caizhou army.
When he heard Jiang Feng ask about the serious matter, Luo Zhen also looked solemn, and then paused: "Ms. Jing and I have already taken out the preliminary design. According to your requirements, we have planned several places where the Caizhou Army may be attacking. Because this magical instrument platform is quite expensive, the money we predicted at first was not enough, and the gap is very large. So at present, there are only four equipments we made in the workshop. However, Lao He and I have also conducted special evaluations based on the characteristics of the current city wall. At least nine to ten equipment are needed to barely be enough. To reach a relatively satisfactory level, at least fifteen are required, and the requirements for magical materials must be improved."
This is a major event, a major event related to the construction of Gushi city defense system.
Due to the size of the county town and the structure of the city wall, it is difficult to further increase and thicken. Although the moat has been dredged, it is limited to the original foundation and cannot be deepened and widened in the short term.
However, the Caizhou Army's siege ability is far beyond the comparison of ant thieves. Not only do they have very complete siege equipment, but the soldiers also have special training in this area. They also have very sharp magical equipment, which is a huge threat to Gushi City.
Jiang Feng knew very well that in the current situation where Daliang was about to start a war against Caizhou, the Caizhou army did not have much time to fight with Gushi, and would inevitably attack Gushi with lightning speed. It can be said that to some extent, it is somewhat similar to the situation of ant thief siege, and even more urgent.
Once Daliang starts the war against Caizhou, it will definitely not be easy to break. The Caizhou army must fight against the entire army, so they must pull out the nail Gushi, and they must go down in one fell swoop.
However, Gushi's location is very special, far away from Guangzhou, even further away from Caizhou, and it also needs to cross a Huai River. Therefore, if the Caizhou army wants to use troops against Gushi in this case, it will be greatly restricted in terms of quantity and time.
The only thing that is worrying is that the Gushi Army may dispatch many masters to attack, using this method to kill generals and seize the flag in order to maximize the effect.
It is precisely because of this that Jiang Feng considers maximizing the resources and power he can mobilize.
After asking some details, Jiang Feng said decisively: "Boshan, don't say much. I will fully support you in this question. I have arranged someone to contact Nanyang. A batch of best magic materials will be transported in three or five days, including wood, earth and gold materials. In addition, what else needs to be purchased immediately. As good as possible according to your requirements, we cannot be stingy in this regard. You must spend what you should spend! In addition, two or three sorcerers and magicians from Daliang will arrive in the next two days. At that time, you can discuss with Jingniang and optimize your design, but I will set a deadline for you. The assembly of the city wall must be completed within ten days!"
Jiang Feng felt that the Caizhou army would not be able to give Gushi ten days.
I had been walking for six or seven days on my way back from Bianliang. It is estimated that the Liang army stationed in various places had already begun to set off at this time and began to march towards Caizhou according to the plan that the Liang army had already deployed. The war would break out in full swing within three or five days at most.
Once the Caizhou army realizes this problem, it will definitely not delay it. In other words, within ten days, whether it is Yuan’s army coming from Guangzhou or Yuan’s army coming from Caizhou, the war will break out in full swing.
"Oh? What is the level of magic materials provided by Nanyang?"
Luo Zhen was greatly inspired, and Nanyang's magic was quite prosperous. Because there were mountains and rivers such as Tongbai Mountain and Funiu Mountain in his territory, it produced wood and earth materials. If some high-level materials could be provided, it would be of great help to improve the power of the equipment.
The biggest problem that bothers him was neither the design and production of magical instruments nor the Xuanshen Jiazhu. The most annoying thing was that there was no suitable high-quality magical materials, which was the most critical for large magical instruments.
In comparison, Xuanshen Jiazhu is more important for small magical instruments, but for large magical instruments, unless they are at the level of the Taoist sect master, they still have to rely on the quality of magical materials to play a role.
Ordinary materials, high-quality materials and equipment made from top-quality materials are completely different, and the power difference is extremely different, especially some high-level magical equipment made from top-quality materials, which is enough to make any army retreat.
