Shi Dashan wiped the sweat from his forehead. The wound on his left arm was involved, and he gritted his teeth in pain.

His left arm was bitten by an enemy bullet. After removing the bullet, he took out the wound in order to prevent infection.

While taking penicillin, he reluctantly poured gunpowder on the wound and burned it directly with a scorching flame.

This is a little trick spread among the Imperial Army. Many of the pioneering regiments they annexed are veterans.

The little trick that had been circulated among the Imperial Army soon spread to the point where they were all familiar with it.

Shi Dashan endured the pain and assured Zu Siming: "Master, why do we stop to rest? We just annexed six pioneering regiments.

We can still fight, so please give the order to fight."

Zu Siming saw Shi Dashan's expression of dissatisfaction. He looked anxious and wanted to continue fighting and expand the results.

He explained patiently: "Da Shan, don't be impatient. You know very well that we have annexed six pioneering groups similar to our own.

If you don’t fix it, digest these results.

As our strength continues to expand, we will become a colorful soap bubble. If there is even the slightest turbulence in the outside world, we will collapse.

It is necessary to revise and improve the original organizations of each pioneering group, and blend them into a whole, with our people occupying important positions.

Only in this way can the ambitions of some people be suppressed and we will avoid internal turmoil."

Shi Dashan scratched his head and said with a simple and honest face: "I am a rough man, and I don't understand these things very well.

I just ask the boss to give me a rough time limit for how long we can continue to fight foreign countries."

Zu Siming thought for a while and said: "When will the reorganization be completed and when will we continue to fight?"

Shi Dashan respectfully saluted with a military salute. He then went to the military camp and began to reorganize according to Zu Siming's requirements.

All those who opposed the reorganization were rounded up and expelled from the army.

The vigorous reorganization was to eliminate the small hills in the army and ensure that Zu Siming's orders could be implemented in every corner of the army.

Zu Siming's expansion stopped, but his practice of annexing other pioneering groups quickly spread.

The pioneering groups he merged with were those with low ambitions and were relatively easy to annex. The leaders of the pioneering groups in Shengxia were all careerists who wanted to build a career of their own.

When they received the news, they immediately became nervous.

But officially they all have their own ideas. Some people propose to join forces, but they are fighting for the leadership of the alliance.

In the end, an alliance was not established, but an agreement was reached to resist Zu Siming's suggestion.

The leaders of these pioneering groups each showed their talents.

Some used silver coins to clear the way and instigate those in Zu Siming's team who were not firm in their thinking.

The only consensus they reached was to coerce and induce the Chamber of Commerce, allowing the Chamber of Commerce to choose between them and Zu Siming.

They know the strengths and weaknesses of the pioneering team clearly.

You can grow your own food, but the weakest point is the supply of weapons and ammunition.

As long as Zu Siming's weapons and ammunition are cut off, and they only need to fight a small battle, their bullets will be exhausted, and then the musket will be like a heavy fire stick.

They master advanced muskets, and the opponent uses broadswords and spears. The outcome has been determined in advance.

Many pioneering groups sent representatives angrily to the Chamber of Commerce's residence.

…………………………

Song Xuewen walked up to Zu Siming in a panic.

Before he could speak, he was immediately interrupted by Zu Siming.

"Old Song, you are usually such a steady person, but now you are so panicked.

My guess is correct, the Chamber of Commerce must have cut off our supply. Now you are worried about our future."

Song Xuewen was surprised how the boss knew the news in advance.

He nodded and said with a slight worry: "Master, the Chamber of Commerce has completely cut off supply. Not only will they not sell us weapons and ammunition, salt, food and other daily necessities, the Chamber of Commerce will cut off all supplies.

We cannot rely on the Chamber of Commerce for development now, we can only rely on our own strength."

When Zu Siming heard this important news, his expression did not change at all.

"This will definitely happen, it will just happen sooner or later.

This is why I desperately want to make my own firearms.

The lifeblood of weapons is placed on other people, and cutting off the supply at critical moments will have fatal consequences.

Now we can make our own weapons, the performance gap is a little bigger, but we have guns.

Frankly speaking, all pioneering groups are a mob, and no one can withstand the blow of cannons.

After these pioneering regiments were shelled, their morale collapsed.

Even if we use the oldest matchlock guns, we can easily defeat these pioneering groups.

Lao Song, your current job is extremely important.

We must ensure the normal operation of the weapons workshops so that we can have enough weapons to win this war."

Zu Siming stabilized Song Xuewen and asked him to continue to manage logistics and maintain logistics stability.

He saw Song Xuewen leaving excitedly.

Zu Siming immediately summoned military generals to discuss how to deal with the upcoming siege.

He knows very clearly what kind of moves his enemies will use.

Even if the chamber of commerce cuts off the supply of weapons, these enemies are afraid that he will be able to fight. They dare not attack alone and will inevitably unite to encircle and suppress them.

These people will never allow a small group to attack without authorization.

Once this small group annexes his power, it will become the most powerful force.

Zu Siming entered a room filled with hand-drawn maps. He saw that all centurions of the army were present.

"Everyone should know that our previous actions have caused public outrage.

The pioneering groups outside have united and want to plunder our property.

We must not agree to the other party's shameless demands and must stand up to defend our own property."

Zu Siming made the listeners angry with just a few words.

"Master, these people actually want to plunder our property. I agree, even the gun in my hand will not agree."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "These trash, they want to rob, why not just target the indigenous people, but they want to rob us, I want them to regret coming to America."

Zu Siming was very satisfied when he saw that the military spirit was available.

He began to develop relevant tactics based on the enemy's weaknesses.

The most critical point of this tactic is to lead the enemy to the canyon in front of Hulu Valley, where they wait and wait.

After listening to Zu Siming's arrangement, Shi Dashan shook his head like a rattle.

"Master, why do I always feel that this strategy is a bit unrealistic.

These people in the pioneering group are not from indigenous tribes, so how could they be so easily fooled.

The last time we ambush the natives in the canyon, the success rate would be very high.

This time at the same location, I think the strategy of ambushing the pioneering group is somewhat lacking."

Zu Siming said confidently: "If you all follow what I say, you will definitely win this war.

If we annex these opponents, the sky is high and birds can fly, and the sea is wide and fish can leap."

Zu Siming didn't explain it too clearly. It would take a long time to explain to these rough people.

He has more important things to do and doesn't have the energy to waste time on such unimportant things.

Another point is that he only stated the location of the ambush and the specific tasks performed by the army, which must be changed at any time according to changes in the enemy before the war begins.

In this way, even if one of them chooses to rebel, he can adjust the battle plan in time to avoid a huge defeat.

Zu Siming finally encouraged everyone: "We have completed the reorganization, and we are all brothers who have both prospered and suffered losses.

We are already a disciplined army. To fight against these rabble, everyone must have sufficient confidence."

Zu Siming ordered the weapons workshop to produce weapons and ammunition at full capacity during this period.

The weapons and ammunition stored in the workshop are distributed to every soldier.

…………………………

Zu Siming saw Shi Dashan looking slightly nervous.

He patted Shi Dashan on the shoulder and said with emotion: "Da Shan, our victory or defeat all rests on you.

You must remember clearly how long you can hold on with a matchlock gun after using a rifle to fight the enemy, and after you have used up all the bullets.

Then immediately retreat into the canyon, regardless of whether the enemy is chasing you or not."

Shi Dashan patted his chest and promised: "Master, you have said this many times. I will definitely live up to everyone's expectations and conscientiously complete the instructions given by the master."
