067 The Protracted War

The sloppy Taoist priest saw that Wan Lei had used one person's power to coax, recruit, and sell, and in just a few days, the people of Beiping City, who were like a ball of scattered sand, turned into a united defender of the city, and he also used this to

A temporary army was summoned to defeat the powerful enemy. It was so powerful that it was hard to resist the temptation.

The reason why the sloppy Taoist priest cooperated with Wan Lei was because Wan Lei was good at organizing. He firmly believed that as long as Wan Lei was allowed to do it, the resurgence of Taoism would be just around the corner. Of course, rebellion is risky and one must be cautious when entering the industry.

It was only after testing that Wan Lei would not lead troops in rebellion that he dared to discuss cooperation with Wan Lei.

In addition, the sloppy Taoist priest is also interested in taking Wan Lei as a cheap apprentice, but Wan Lei is not interested in the less bright career of being a Taoist priest, and he is not very complimentary of the sloppy Taoist priest's character and Taoism. In this situation

If you propose to accept disciples, you are only bringing humiliation to yourself.

Although the cooperation matters have been negotiated with the sloppy Taoist priest, Wan Lei has been given the priority. Now his main energy is to defend Beiping City. As for the Taoist reform, he thinks about it when he has nothing to do, and adapts some Pangu Kaitiandiji when he has time.

The myth of Nuwa patching up the sky and creating humans, and connected these stories to create a new Taoist classic - "Book of Heaven".

Those myths and stories are just deceiving people. The two, three and four volumes of the "Book of Heaven" are really beneficial to people. Each volume will compile various physical, chemical and biological knowledge, from low-level to high-level. Correspondingly, the Taoist priests of the Protestant religion are also divided into four

There are twenty levels. Those who have just entered Taoism are one-star Taoists, the highest level is five-star Taoism, and the middle two levels are Taoist priests and Taoist masters.

If a Taoist priest wants to improve his level, he must first achieve success in his studies, and secondly, he must innovate or make contributions. The advantage of upgrading his level is that he can be exposed to more advanced and practical knowledge. Wan Lei's purpose is to provide this incentive measure.

Taoism must be transformed into a great university.

It is said that the power of one person is always exhausted, but the power of ten thousand people is infinite. Wan Lei plans to gather "elites" from all over the country together, first concentrate on studying the theoretical knowledge he brought in his mind, and try his best to turn them into productive forces

, and even innovate and develop into a more complete scientific and technological system. This is his true purpose of reforming Taoism.

Of course, Wan Lei will not do anything that makes people work in vain. It is said that everything in the world is for profit, and all the noise in the world is for profit, and the self-proclaimed Taoist priests are no exception. If they do not give some benefits, they will not

I will study hard. To this end, Wan Lei also created the "Patent Law".

Any technological innovation or utility model, as long as it achieves something, belongs to an individual's patent. To put it bluntly, the achievement belongs exclusively to the individual, and the benefits derived from the transfer of the patent also belong to the individual. Of course, if a patent is developed,

Not only can you make a profit, but you can also get corresponding bonus points. When the bonus points reach a certain level, you can be promoted to a higher level, and you can research deeper knowledge and develop more valuable patents. This is a virtuous circle.

Wan Lei does not expect that every new Taoist priest in New Taoism will be Edison, but if one out of a hundred thousand, that would be a big deal. He has been doing this for decades, and if nothing else, he has "brought" these

Science and technology must have been fully digested and absorbed, and the overall scientific and technological strength is enough to lead the world for hundreds of years. When trains and ships are running all over the world, and electric lights and telephones are in thousands of homes, that will be the time when the nation takes off.

With the fantasy of a better life in the future, Wan Lei will be down-to-earth in compiling books whenever he has time, which is a work that will benefit the future. Of course, he also has a "secretary" - Wei'er, who is her main daily job.

He helped Wan Lei take notes, and finally gave the notes to Wan Lei for revision. The revised notes were compiled into a volume, which is the textbook. The textbook was then classified from low to high and compiled into volumes two, three, and four of "Book of Heaven."

While he was busy editing the book, Wan Lei did not put down his own work. He still focused on managing the military and civil affairs of Beiping City every day. No, early that morning, Wan Lei called the middle and senior generals to hold a routine military meeting.

, discuss the military situation together.

Due to the recent defeat, the enemy did not launch a large-scale attack for several days, and some small tentative attacks were quickly repelled. Although there was no large-scale war, Wan Lei still did not dare to take it lightly, because he

We know that there is always a calm before the storm. The enemy must be planning a larger-scale offensive, so we must be fully prepared.

"My dear nephew, it is almost the end of the year and there are no reinforcements arriving. I am afraid that the reinforcements will not arrive until the spring. We are short of food and grass in the city, and I am afraid that we will not be able to survive until then." Although Tie Xuan has retreated to the second line in charge of food, grass and money, he is still the leader of Peiping.

The most senior court official, he still sat at the head of the military meeting.

"Kill the extra war horses, distribute the meat to the soldiers and civilians to improve their food, and save fodder for the soldiers and civilians to keep warm. The wealthy families in the city gate still have a lot of surplus grain, so they will be collected at a fair price to ensure that the people can have enough to eat." Wan Lei

In this way, it is said that people are like iron rice and steel. Only by having enough food and clothing can the morale of the people in Beiping City be guaranteed.

"Kill all the horses, and we won't be able to fight the enemy's cavalry." A captain frowned.

"We are focusing on defense now. We should defend the city first and then consider other things." Wan Lei also knew that he was demolishing the east wall to make up for the west wall, but there was no other way. When people don't have enough to eat, naturally,

There will be no more horses left.

"That's all we can do now." Tie Xuan sighed. He was not willing to kill horses. After all, horses are the most important strategic material. Without horses, it is impossible to fight the Mongols. However, he did not know that the city would be besieged.

At some point, we can only plan for a protracted war and take it one step at a time.

"Sir, the enemy has not sent a large army to attack the city in recent days, so they must have other plans. According to my estimation, they may be digging a tunnel secretly, preparing to sneak into Beiping City to attack us secretly. We must be on guard against this." Zhao Quanjie, the commander of ten thousand men, said

He suggested without worry.

"It's not impossible, but we don't dare to send sentries out of the city. Even if the enemy really digs a tunnel, we don't know." Zhou Tianshou, the captain of ten thousand men, also frowned. Of course he knew that the power of tunnel warfare is

It's about making it hard to guard against.

"Send people to set up water tanks at the foot of each city wall, and have people observe them at all times. If any vibrations are found underground, report it immediately." When Wan Lei said this, he couldn't help but think of the man who set up water tanks in the city tower in "Tunnel Warfare"

Japanese Army Colonel.

But this trick is correct. The seismometer is built based on this principle. Although the water tank is a little crude, but if someone really digs a large tunnel into the city, the water in the water tank will sway, and people can immediately discover the location of the tunnel and its access.

direction and respond promptly.
