The craftsmen were very happy: "Give me some mackerel, kelp and shrimp."

"As long as you do a good job, there is no problem with welfare. If you don't finish your job well, let alone seafood, you will even cancel the holiday."

Wang Heng left, and the supervisors in the workshop were longer than donkeys. Although the whip supervisor was gone, anyone who dared to slack off would definitely be scolded.

There are few people here in Liu An. This is the husband and wife shop, his wife, and his children are assistants. There are two craftsmen, only five people in total. They are responsible for creating some fine swords for the generals, and the other are fine steel gun tips and spearheads. In the Xuzhou army, they can be regarded as high-end craftsmen. Although the number of weapons they have created is not large, they are all made of steel, with excellent quality, and are equipped with elite troops.

"Zheng Bo, why are you here?" Liu An blacksmith invited Wang Heng in quickly.

There were three stoves lit in the sword yard, and the heat waves hit people.

Wang Heng roasted the fire beside the blacksmith's stove.

"Come here to see, there are a lot of things happening recently. Grab it tightly. Make Pan Lin's big iron spear as soon as possible. In addition, try to hit more conventional reed leaf spears. The lord may have to equip elite soldiers." Wang Heng.

As a military craftsman, when Wang Heng said this, Liu An knew that it was going to fight again. As for whom to fight and when, it would be said when it was not a secret, and you must not ask when it was a secret. If it was a secret, it would be a big trouble if you knew many secrets in the army.

"Don't worry, the two craftsmen will go back during the Chinese New Year. Our family will not rest, and we worked overtime to build it."

Two blacksmiths from Pengcheng next to him said: "Raising troops for a thousand days will help us to be rich and prosperous. Since we have something to do, we will not go back. We will do our best to do our best for the general."

"Then there is no need. It's better to go back. Our Xuzhou army is still very well equipped. It's just for the balance of equipment of each army. If all the axes are equipped, there are some."

Xuzhou army is practicing, training,

The Xuzhou army's logistics were also mobilized to build weapons, prepare pickles, process pancakes, distribute military rations, etc.

Especially the pancakes, which were improved by Lu Bu. It turned out that making single pancakes was relatively slow. Now Lu Bu arranged for the Ironware Floor to make pancakes with high middle and low sides.

At this time, the pancakes are not the shoulders of Tianjin, but the pancakes made of sorghum and wheat flour. The cakes are very dry and folded like books. They can be preserved for half a year in dry weather.

It was inconvenient to carry military rations during the war, and the soldiers carried more than a dozen pancakes with them to respond to the emergency.

At this time, the instant noodles and noodles exchanged by Lu Bu can come in more use.

As the saying goes, "Before the army moves, food and grass will come first." These aspects are referred to.

The Chinese New Year is coming, and Wenhou’s Martial Arts Hall is on holiday.

But Lu Bu was not idle and only stayed at home for two days.

For the remaining days, accompany the soldiers to party in the military camp or go out to visit military families.

On the third day of the first lunar month, Xujiazhuang, south of the city. This village was a village that suffered a very serious injury in the Battle of Xuzhou. When Lu Bu was recruiting soldiers, more than a dozen young people in the village participated in the Xuzhou army.

Xu Wang is one of them.

Xu Wang's family has parents, two younger brothers and one younger sister. His mother is not in good health, and it depends entirely on her father and two younger brothers.

Xu Wang's father had a comfortable New Year. Before the New Year, Xu Wang sent home for 40 kilograms of noodles and 100 cents of money. You should know that Xu Wang is a new recruit who has been in the army for less than half a year, so it is very rare to be able to give such money and food.

"Is this Xu Wang's house?" Someone knocked at the door.

Xu Wang's father hurried over and opened the door. He was startled. The man with a knife knocked on the door. Looking back, it turned out to be General Lu Bulu.

Xu Wang's father quickly bowed: "Xiaomin greets the general."

Lu Bu hurriedly helped him: "You are Xu Wang's father, I am here to visit the military family on behalf of the team."

Lu Bu said as he took a box of salt bricks from the guard behind him and gave them to Xu Wang's father.

"This is the salt bricks you gave to your house, which were hung in the sheep pen to feed the sheep."

Everything he gave was booked in advance. Xu Wang had seven goats at home, so Lu Bu gave him salt bricks for feeding sheep.

He took another thick cloth and handed it to Xu Wang's father: "This is a few feet thick cloth, and make some new clothes for the children."

Xu Wang's father was very moved and said quickly: "In summer, I've already worn the fabrics sent by the general. Now the general is sending them again. Thank you so much."

Xu Wang's family is not a poor household, but a middle-aged family. There are land and sheep at home.

Lu Bu arranged: "This year, I will plant less cotton, so that I can wear cotton coats during the winter."

"Don't worry, General, our family is very concerned about the new crops. Last year, we planted Wenhou rice and Wenhou melon. This year we will add some sweet potatoes and cotton."

In another military family, Lu Bu talked about family matters with everyone.

An old farmer said: "It's okay to eat and drink well now, and there are carts at home. The only shortcoming is that there are no large animal farmland."

Lu Bu comforted and said, "The shortage of large animals has always existed, but it is being slowly resolved. The caravan transported a large aconite donkey from Qingzhou. It weighed about the same as a cattle, and could plow the land and pull the mills. You can go to the market in a few days."

There are a small number of donkeys and cattle in the livestock market, but ordinary families cannot afford it, and only a few families have the money to buy it.

In order to truly realize the development of animal power in agriculture, Lu Bu only has one way to go, that is, to open up the trading route with the northern nomadic peoples and transport a large number of horses on the grassland to breed.

Cattle on the grassland do not have the habit of working, and it is difficult to train when you go to the farm. Moreover, cattle are different from horses, and the mortality rate of long-distance trafficking is very high.

As a military family, he wanted to take the lead. Lu Bu visited dozens of military families in one day and gave small gifts to the military family.

Arrange the military’s family to develop well and take the lead in production and life.

After the seventh day of the lunar month, construction in Xuzhou, which was immersed in the New Year, started.

Workshops started and farmers went to the fields.

The water conservancy projects in each village continue, first, drainage. Due to the different situations in each village, low-lying villages must clean the river channel to ensure smooth river flow and discharge it when it rains.

The second is watering. Canals should be built between farmland, rivers and lakes, and water trucks should be used to lift water to ensure that watering can pass during drought.

In addition, the roads and bridges that were not completed in winter will continue to be completed this spring.

In the past few days, Lu Bu made important adjustments. Song Xian's army added 900 new naval troops, including twenty warships and ten patrol ships in Weishan Lake. Xu Sheng's army has been adjusted from 500 soldiers to 1,500. More than one thousand five hundred people are recruited for fishermen on the beach. It seems that Lu Bu plans to train the naval troops from Lianyun County. However, the warships have not been built in the short term, and Xu Sheng's 1,500 soldiers need to be trained in a large war.
