The people in Yang Fan's territory had a happy New Year, but starting from the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the atmosphere in the territory suddenly became tense.
The administrative agencies of each village and town are directly elected by the villagers. Law enforcement, judicial, military, and supervisory agencies are all dispatched by Yang Mansion. The heads of various departments have begun to hold frequent meetings.
Although various activities to celebrate the New Year are still going on and people are still enjoying the ocean of joy. However, the family members of these people found that they no longer accompanied them and rushed back to the village and town offices.
Soon there were rumors that another war was about to begin.
Faced with the current complicated court situation, the Yang Mansion issued an order to prepare for war.
After the Spring Festival, large-scale construction of earth buildings made of cement and stone will begin this year on the territory of Yang Mansion. One earth building will be built in each town.
In addition, the muskets and black powder that had been eliminated by the army were distributed to the town-level armed stations, waiting for orders before being distributed to ordinary people.
All adult men, over the age of 16 and under the age of 60, must begin to receive military training during their off-farm and rest periods, and be assigned labor for the construction of fortifications.
The Yang Mansion issued an order to build fifty earth buildings on the territory before October this year.
It is enough to accommodate 1.5 million people, and the earth buildings can be used to protect everyone in wartime. Each earth building is designed to accommodate a population of 30,000 to 50,000. There are all kinds of living facilities inside.
After the earth buildings are built, they will be distributed to the people for free according to the unit form of the building. The original adobe houses of each household will be abandoned.
The earth buildings are made of cement and large stones. They also have a reinforced concrete frame load-bearing structure. They are very strong. The earth buildings are all six-story buildings, and the outer outline is in the shape of a gear. It is similar to the design of a bastion.
Earth buildings are both military fortifications and residential buildings.
This kind of house with one-meter-thick exterior walls is warm in winter and cool in summer. It also has an indoor kitchen and bathroom, water supply and drainage systems, and a central heating system to provide heating and hot water in winter.
This is much better than the adobe house we live in now. The comfort level of life is greatly improved. It is also very safe.
There are so many refugees now, and public security is very poor. People are very willing to live together in earth buildings.
Yang Fan began to clean up the warehouse inventory and emptied the warehouse to store new weapons and supplies.
Distribute the cold weapons in the warehouse, including the old-fashioned iron armor, leather armor, shields, bows, sharp guns, and old-fashioned fire gate guns captured in the wars over the years, made by yourself, and issued by the court, to the Tulou garrison.
Once a war breaks out, the garrison can distribute it to the people at any time. Weapons must be ensured that every family has them. Everyone must have at least one pair of iron or leather armor, and at least one crossbow.
In principle, hot weapons are issued to the militia during matchlock battles, and are placed in the weapons depot of each village hall for unified management during normal times.
The early manufactured Tiger Crouching Cannon, Fo Lang Machine Cannon, captured and imitation General Cannon were distributed to the Tulou garrison after the Tulou was built.
The old-fashioned black powder has also been distributed. Now the standard military gunpowder has been replaced by maroon gunpowder.
Yang Fan will go on an expedition to Hetao this year, and this time he will probably have to fight a decisive battle with the Mongols. Yang Fan will probably be dragged in Hetao for a long time and will not be able to come back.
Historically, this winter, the Jian slaves gathered more than 200,000 people to invade, and the capital was once besieged. Yang Fan had to prepare for the worst for his territory. This was the foundation for his development in the Ming Dynasty.
Yang Fan's territory is located on the narrow passage between Jizhou and Zunhua, with mountains to the north and south. It is the only way for Jiannu to attack the capital after entering the pass.
In order to protect his people, Yang Fan had to build numerous earth buildings to centrally protect the population, food, livestock, weapons, and various materials. Only in this way could he go on the Western Expedition with confidence.
The first phase of the new city's city defense project has been completed. The outer perimeter is a three-kilometer-long and wide square city wall, which is supported at the foot of the mountain.
The Zhouhe Dam is still under construction, and it is estimated that it will not be completed until next year. At present, it is not possible to store water and flood the land south of the city to form a reservoir.
Therefore, if Jiannu really attacked, they could only defend the city. There is a vast plain to the south of the city, and the passage of Jiannu's large troops could not be stopped. The most that the new city could do was to rely on the fortified city to defend itself.
Both Android and Apple are available.】
The large plain south of the city will also grow one season of wheat and one season of winter wheat this year.
After the summer grain harvest next year, this will be the flooded area where the reservoir is impounded. After the reservoir is impounded, the only official road from Zunhua to Jizhou is through the south of Xincheng on the north side of the reservoir. At that time, Jiannu will
Don't even think about passing through Xincheng.
Yang Fan's advice to his mother-in-law was that if the slaves really broke into the pass, they would clear the territory, burn down the houses, fill up the wells, and gather all the farmers, livestock, and all kinds of materials into the earth buildings to hold on.
From now on, the industrial population and factories have been organized to move into the new city. After the relocation is completed, the city's population will reach more than 300,000. If the city relies on solid city defenses, the Jian slaves will not be able to defeat them.
This is more than enough to protect yourself. Wait for Yang Fan to come back.
At the same time, Yang Fan ordered to start hoarding food, and the arsenal was producing weapons and ammunition around the clock. On the one hand, it was to prepare reserves for the war in the northwest, and on the other hand, it was to prevent slaves from entering the customs.
All coal mines and iron mines have begun working in three shifts, increasing production day and night. Raw materials for various industrial productions have been stored in advance. There are piles of raw materials near various earth buildings and in warehouses and stockyards in new cities.
Yaoguang began to increase the scale of teleportation and fill up the warehouse as soon as possible.
Starting from the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the entire territory began to gradually mobilize.
In the Yanshan Mountains, the sound of quarrying explosions is everywhere. A large amount of chemical fertilizers and explosives are carried by teams of engineers to the mines to assist in quarrying. The stone is transported to various locations on horse-drawn rail cars and ice roads frozen by splashing water with sledges.
Storage at designated locations. A large amount of steel bars and cement industry also began to be distributed from warehouses in Zunhua and Xincheng.
The entire territory entered high-speed operation mode. Yang Fan inspected various places to understand the situation in each place and solve any problems at any time.
At this time, a young eunuch from the Supervisor of Ceremonies came to the Yang Mansion and brought a letter from Wang Chengen.
Wang Chengen asked Yang Fan to start the railway project as soon as possible and get rid of all the refugees gathered in the capital. Long Live Lord could no longer sleep.
Yang Fan has been busy with matters in his own territory recently and has not paid attention to the capital. However, the disaster has been serious this year. Every time he goes to Nanyuan to train troops, his convoy sees a large number of refugees gathering on the official road outside Yongding Gate, carrying a broken
Bowl, where to beg.
Although I didn't dare to come up to beg when I saw the carriage guarded by soldiers, there were refugees gathering everywhere on both sides of the road.
I saw that the refugee problem in Beijing has become very serious.
