"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 929
Chen Ziang inspected the secret base and saw the new weapons developed, and he was in a good mood.
Although the use of arrow cabinets is very limited and has high requirements for arrows, it is a sharp weapon on the battlefield.
The sky thunder made of gunpowder is like the grenade of the later generations, and it can also exert amazing effects on the battlefield.
Gunpowder is limited by the lack of nitrate as a raw material, because no nitrate ore has been found.
However, Chen Ziang also made some suggestions to Ma Jin, the person in charge, that is, to make it manually by collecting feces and other accumulations, and then pouring urine and exposing it to the sun to collect some nitrate.
Although the amount of this kind of production is not large, as long as it goes on for a long time, it is bound to be able to accumulate a lot of raw materials.
With so many raw materials, gunpowder can be produced in large quantities, which will eventually change the shape of war.
However, Chen Ziang also knows that this is a systematic project that requires a large number of related supporting industries, but gunpowder cannot exert its strength.
The feudal dynasty of my era also invented gunpowder, but most of the time it was used to set off fireworks, but it was not used in war.
In addition to the fact that the rulers do not pay much attention to it, the development level of productivity also limits the further use of gunpowder.
Chen Zi'ang and the others have now worked out this thing, but there is still a long way to go to apply it on a large scale and make guns and other weapons.
Fortunately, Chen Ziang didn't force it. Now that they had gunpowder, it was enough to gain an advantage in the war.
This inspection can be said to be a rewarding experience. Whether it is heavy cavalry, heavy infantry or newly developed weapons, Chen Ziang has a little more confidence in fighting for hegemony.
Confidence comes from strength, and only when one's own strength becomes stronger, one's confidence will naturally be full.
Chen Ziang and the others spent the night in the training base, and then inspected some surrounding villages and towns on the second day.
Seeing that the lives of the people have become rich and the family has food, Chen Ziang is also very happy. At least their new policy is still useful.
The general Chen Ziang went deep into the fields and homes to talk with the people, so that the people could get to know this amiable general better.
"In the future, officials at all levels will go to the fields to talk and conduct research with the people from time to time, so that we can avoid being bullied and learn the most authentic first-hand information."
After Chen Ziang bid farewell to the people, he also told the accompanying personnel to have more contact with the people.
The incident in Luo County made Chen Ziang realize that both he and the Chief of Political Affairs Qin An and the others are now in a high position, which is why they were deceived.
Once you are blinded by the people below for a long time and don't know the actual situation, then you may misjudge major decisions and make wrong decisions.
Chen Ziang also used this in-depth communication with the people to let the accompanying personnel record his instructions, which will become a rule in the future.
Li Qiye, chief of military affairs, also took Chen Ziang's request very seriously, and felt that it was necessary to go deep into the various armies to understand the needs of the soldiers at the lowest level.
Li Qiye also made a suggestion based on the trend, in order to strengthen the supervision of the officers of the various units of the Qinghe Army, and avoid corruption and reselling arms from happening again.
?It is hoped that the Military Judicial Division can follow the example of the Overwatch Council and set up patrolling military judges to conduct irregular inspections of various troops to strengthen discipline.
Without Li Qiye's reminder, Chen Ziang also wanted to do this, so he agreed without thinking.
Chen Zi'ang's inspection lasted for several days, and it was also his understanding of the specific situation of each department of the Qinghe Army.
Whether it is the Zhanzheng Academy, Yunxi Academy or the training base, Chen Ziang is very satisfied.
Seeing the actual situation, Chen Ziang also gained more confidence and confidence. He felt that they had to launch a new round of offensive after the spring of next year to defeat King Ning of Luyang Province.
After all, the mighty army under King Ning has expanded to 200,000, how can others be allowed to snore on the side of the couch, King Ning is a threat to the Qinghe Army.
If Chen Ziang and the others want to go north to compete in the world, they must eliminate this threat around them.
"After you go back, your military affairs department should strengthen the training of the army, equip food reserves, and prepare for a new round of war." Chen Ziang said to Li Qiye, chief of military affairs.
"Commander, are we going to attack King Ning?" Li Qiye asked.
?Now that the southern region of the Qinghe Army has stabilized, the next step must be to develop northward. Li Qiye, the chief of military affairs, still has this vision.
"Yes, King Ning is the closest to us. If we want to go north, we must eliminate this threat."
Chen Ziang didn't hide his thoughts, and told Li Qiye, the chief of military affairs, bluntly.
Seeing that his guess was right, Li Qiye also immediately stated that he would definitely mobilize and prepare immediately.
"It's okay to prepare, but it must be kept secret, and they must not be aware of it." Chen Ziang reminded.
Chen Zi'ang didn't want to make a fuss before the fight started. Once the enemy was prepared, it would be difficult to fight.
"The Military Intelligence Department should also strengthen its intelligence collection work on Luyang Province."
The soldiers and horses went ahead without food and grass. These were all in charge of Li Qiye, chief of military affairs, and the others, but the information was handed over to Du Jian, the military intelligence department.
Du Jian's military intelligence department has now become an independent department, specializing in spying on military intelligence.
The Military Intelligence Department is the clairvoyance and ears of the Qinghe Army, so they also need to start convenient intelligence collection for Luyang Province in advance.
Du Jian was born in Chen Ziang's personal guard, and he was regarded as Chen Ziang's new belly, so he fully agreed and decided to deploy immediately after returning.
Chen Zi'ang's idea of ??using troops against Luyang Province was only revealed to Li Qiye and others for the sake of confidentiality.
He had been inspecting outside for several days and was exhausted from running around. Therefore, after inspecting the village, Chen Ziang and his party returned to Yunxi Mansion.
?Because the Chinese New Year is coming soon, the Yunxi Mansion is now also decorated with lights and festoons, with red lanterns hanging high, filled with a lively festive atmosphere.
Chen Ziang's Marshal's Mansion was also specially arranged for celebration. When he learned that Chen Ziang was back, his wife, Chen Xiaoyu, also went out to greet him in person.
Seeing Chen Xiaoyu standing at the door to welcome him, Chen Ziang felt the warmth of home inexplicably.
"Husband, will you stay at home for dinner tonight?"
Chen Xiaoyu happily welcomed Chen Ziang into the mansion, and then asked carefully.
Chen Ziang has been busy with various things, even in Yunxi Mansion, he is often busy in the government office, and rarely accompany Chen Xiaoyu, but Chen Xiaoyu has no complaints at all.
Seeing Chen Xiaoyu picking off his shirt for him, Chen Ziang also felt a trace of guilt inexplicably in his heart.
"I'm not going anywhere today, just eating at home." Chen Ziang stroked Chen Xiaoyu's hair.
"real?"
"real."
"Then I'll go and order the kitchen to cook and make your favorite crispy pork and steamed tofu¡ª"
Chen Xiaoyu was as happy as a child who got a favorite toy, and hurried straight to the kitchen. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
