Chapter seventy-fifth big fight
The arrival of the Chen family made Shen Lin's labor supply unprecedentedly rich.
He does not intend to support a full family of unemployed people.
The burden is too heavy.
Young men of the age of twenty and those who practice martial arts are all pot-bellied.
Even if Shen Lin is willing to provide meat and fish, each person can eat one and a half kilograms of grain in a day.
The monthly salary of one tael of silver seems to be the same as that of a rural soldier, but it adds up to a lot.
Not to mention, the next equipment is a huge drain on money.
Just like the Liang family.
Half a day to train, half a day to work.
is the best way.
At least it ensures the production of the workshop and also takes into account the safety of Shenjiabao.
Shenjiabao, that’s right.
This was first proposed by Shen Lin.
New name.
It is always said that the Shen Family Courtyard is easily confused with the main family of the Shen Family Collection.
Whose compound built the city wall and watchtower?
Shen Lin has asked Wu Qi to buy good horses at Anding Luo Horse Market.
A war horse that can be valued by Shen Lin and Wu Qi must be about five feet tall at the shoulders.
The price is not low.
The average price may be between thirty and fifty taels of silver per piece.
At first, this proposal was opposed by the third uncle Shen Zhonghe and even Liu Chuer.
There are three hundred servants.
Even if one person rides on it, it is still very scary.
Do you need to prepare some horses?
I am very sure of that.
Dozens of horses are indispensable, right?
The red lady even shouted that one person and two horses are invincible!
Spend fifteen thousand taels of silver on a war horse?
Is this still in its infancy?
At least for now, Shenjiabao is sold.
I can't even raise that much money.
Shen Lin comforted everyone.
"You guys, a good horse with a shoulder height of about five feet is not a cabbage."
“Where can I buy it easily?”
"You don't have more than half a year, so don't even think about it."
"Now that the situation is critical, what should we do with the money?"
"The first thing is to reserve food. Even if Shenjiabao is besieged for several months, we must ensure that we are not hungry."
"The second is to increase combat effectiveness. Cavalry is undoubtedly the best choice to dominate in the field!"
Obviously, the formation of cavalry cannot be completed in a short time.
Money cannot be spent in one day, you have to take your time.
Luoyang Mountain is located in a remote area.
The four counties in the mountainous area captured by the bandits were originally poor.
Even if they collected thousands of horses, the quality would be worrying.
Maybe I'll have to buy a lot of horses to make up for it.
Therefore, Shen Lin could only take the route of elite soldiers.
Armed to the teeth, the three hundred cavalry are like man-eating tigers.
If the money is gone, you can make it again.
If the person is gone, it will be too late to regret.
As a descendant, Shen Lin should never be a miser.
For example, the main line of the Shen family and other large families in Anding.
Who doesn’t have tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of silver hidden in the cellar?
Is all the old grain in the warehouse piled up?
In recent years, there have been no major floods or droughts in Anping.
It can barely be considered a smooth sailing.
With so much money and food lying around, who would be willing to spend it to form a private army?
No, not one.
Shen Zhongxin expanded his squadron and trained more than 20,000 rural soldiers.
In fact, they are equivalent to his own private soldiers.
Where can others dispatch it?
But this guy would rather levy massive business taxes than pay for it himself.
In fact, this is considered normal.
The more powerful and wealthy people are.
The more I like to turn public into private.
Pay out of your own pocket?
Definitely the behavior of a fool.
Shen Lin is such a fool.
Because he has no power to use public means.
The small position of district commander has been emptied out by the heavy burden of military training.
Although he himself doesn't care about being a district manager, he rarely goes to the office.
But no one wants to be a puppet-like rubber stamp.
Shen Lin was holding his breath in his heart.
He would rather be a fool in the eyes of others.
I am a loser.
Spend as much as you earn.
Troubled times are coming.
Keep my family and friends safe.
Defend our Shenjia Fort.
The last laugh is to see who is the fool?
Spending money is not just about buying good horses.
The fifty acres of land in the deserted grassland must also be enclosed.
Building a workshop is just a pretense.
Shen Lin needs to build a complete defense system.
Training cavalry requires a larger venue.
Half of the original four or five acres of backyard was taken up by the workshop.
Where is enough space?
Even if a shooting range is set up, the length will only be 20 feet or 60 meters.
Forty steps.
Forget about training compound crossbows.
Liang Zizhong and others found it difficult to use the small tip bows they originally used.
Everyone has been complaining for a long time.
Do you want to go out to train?
So many people, such sophisticated weapons, yet worried about being exposed.
it's good now.
Enclose fifty acres of barren grassland.
The width is calculated based on the original Shen family courtyard.
It's only fifty meters, more than thirty steps.
But the length is incredible.
More than six hundred meters.
Four hundred steps!
Enough for everything!
Not to mention the new bed crossbow, even if Shen Lin comes up with a heavy trebuchet or a squatting tiger cannon.
Don't worry about hitting the wall.
The plan is to have a two-foot-high fence just like the front yard.
No one else could see what Shen Lin was doing in the backyard of Nuo University.
This is a bit like a fortress.
Two hundred new members of the Chen family interacted with the young men of the Liang family.
After understanding the benefits of expanding the backyard, it immediately felt like a shot in the arm.
The Chen family were originally horse thieves.
Although they were poor, they spent a lot of money and money to raise more than thirty ordinary war horses.
Shen Lin also killed nine of them.
Speaking of which, it is a sad story.
But they have received equestrian training since childhood.
That is the capital of the Chen family to settle down and lick blood.
They better understand the benefits of a large enough horse farm for cavalry training.
build!
Must be repaired immediately!
Repair day and night!
sleep?
To quote Chen Feng, a nap is enough.
If Brother Lin comes now, I can get him three hundred good horses.
He didn't even have time to take a nap.
Three days later, two hundred-refined-level heavy knives were completed.
Before Chen Tianfang left, he called his two precious sons and the red lady.
"Yun'er, you've always been steady. You should be more tolerant."
"Although Feng'er is reckless, he doesn't have any scheming ideas. Mr. Shen is also tolerant, so I'm not worried."
"Wushuang, you girl has always been eccentric and willful."
"Second uncle knows that you have a crush on Shen Lin, but there is still some distance between us when it comes to marriage, right?"
Chen Wushuang was unusually shy.
The toes of a pair of embroidered shoes were rubbing on the ground.
"Second uncle, what are you talking about?"
"Who...who wants to marry that pretty boy?"
The white lady, Chen Wuxia, has more red glow on her pretty face than her younger sister.
"Okay, I already know what you're thinking, let's listen to what my second uncle has to say first."
"After my second uncle and I return to the mountain, we will prepare for the robbery across the river."
"This time Mr. Shen borrowed another two hundred sets of fine iron composite bows and Miao knives."
"Enough to arm the rest of the family."
"We have no time to take care of you, you are beyond our reach!"
Everything Chen Wuxia said is true.
Shen Lin heard that the Chen family intended to sneak across the Huanglong River.
A sneak attack on Liao territory.
He immediately expressed his strong support.
It doesn't matter if you don't have money, I owe you the weapons payment first.
Wait until you have a great harvest and settle the accounts when you come back!
