Chaos in Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 66: Happy troubles

Views:

Qin Meng's hands are black, but Wei Da has personally experienced it, and even if he beats you, you have nothing to say.

"The general can rest assured, the humble position will definitely get better." Wei Da said awe-inspiringly.

Qin Meng nodded, and was about to let Wei Da do something, but suddenly thought of something, and asked: "Weida, the Wei family in Xiping, is a powerful local, and he is an official and official. Soldier?"

Wei Da smiled bitterly: "The general said it is the main house of the Wei family. The side room, a few acres of land, or a shop of its own, is considered good. It was mixed badly, and it was not very different from the tenants. The Wei family is beautiful. Yes, but... those people."

Qin Meng groaned: "As far as I know, you seem to be the main family of the Wei family. Why..."

Very rarely, Wei Da interrupted Qin Meng's words: "General, it's annoying if you don't talk about it. Can anyone be introduced to the general as long as they are capable?"

Qin Meng knew that he might have touched Wei Da's wounds, so he didn't ask further.

"This is natural and capable. This general drinks and eats meat under his command. If you are incapable, you don't even want to come in by the general's door."

"The general is relieved. If Wei Da recruits a wine pouch and rice bag, it will be useless to have this face. Even with this head, I will send it to the general." Wei Da said, quitting.

Within two days, Wei Da directly brought more than one hundred people to Qin Meng. These people were not old, weak, sick or disabled, but all sixteen-year-olds and older men in their early twenties.

Don't think Qin Meng is much older than them, but he has experienced many things. There have been countless sufferings on the edge of life and death, and the experience is extraordinary. When you look at the eyes of these people, you know that they carry the wildness of young people, but they are relatively simple.

Such people are the best quality seedlings that are most suitable for transformation and polishing.

Qin Meng paid attention to Wei Liang, and sure enough, his eyes were rebellious, a bit similar to Xie Yun, except that it was probably Wei Da who had beaten him hard, and he knew Qin Meng very well after seeing Qin Meng.

As someone who passed through for later generations, Qin Meng knew what virtue was at this age, and it was the most rebellious time.

Heavy drums need to be beaten with a violent hammer and guided to a good place, but you can't do it with a lot of brainwashing.

practice! In other words, the word Lian is more appropriate.

Obeying orders is their first lesson!

Regardless of the young man's rebellious mentality, he is much better than mature-minded adults in terms of plasticity.

Adults have a lot of knowledge and experience. They know that playing yin with you is the most troublesome.

The young man is not the case. It really makes him feel that you treat him as a brother. If you execute strict orders for a period of time, you will form a habitual behavior that you are accustomed to.

Qin Meng was not lazy in training excellent fighters.

No matter how important the Blacksmiths matter is, he still supervises the training of recruits brought by Wei Da almost every day.

According to Qin Meng's expectation, all the people Wei Da had brought were thrown into the blacksmith team and worked as labor to build iron tools. After training for a period of time, these young men are more suitable to be fighters.

Warriors have a training mechanism for fighters.

Qin Meng thought about it for a long time, but gritted his teeth and recruited these recruits to Zhou Lie's strong army camp.

As for the lack of manpower in the blacksmith team, Qin Meng considered it for a long time. Take out some of the older pawns from active duty and add them to the blacksmith team.

In order to further encourage the enthusiasm for building weapons, Qin Meng gave new benefits. If anyone can build weapons quickly and well, the defective rate is very low, and the top ten will be rewarded.

This reward mechanism is jealous.

In addition to the generous rewards of silver money, you can also marry a wife and have children, and enjoy the treatment of an officer’s family.

The diligence, creativity, and explosiveness of the people of Central Plains is unimaginable by anyone in the world.

As long as the reward mechanism is proper, the Central Plains people can really do things that make you jaw-dropping.

On this day, the leader of the blacksmith team, Hou Chao, told Qin Meng that the current blacksmith team can build five Mo knives in one day.

Although Qin Meng had to supervise the blacksmith team every day, his first reaction was whether the things he created were shoddy.

Hou Chao hurriedly explained: "General, such an important thing. Am I going to fool you? Every knife made has a strict final product inspection."

Qin Meng thought about it, Hou Chao's words made sense, but he was still not at ease, so he and Hou Chao went to the warehouse where the finished Modao was placed.

Picking up a handful, the knife has long been coated with anti-rust grease, making it very sticky.

Hou Chao quickly took out the cloth and wiped off the grease on the blade.

"Please look at the general. This knife is the trace of the test stone. The test stone is a very hard stone. We choose a stone with a width of three inches and cut it off. A qualified knife is a knife that does not curl. You see, this is the mark left by cutting the stone, there is no damage, but the color of the cutting edge of the stone is slightly darker than the color of the cutting edge of the stone. "

Qin Meng nodded. He didn't immediately draw a conclusion, but asked Hou Chao to take the test stone, personally select a few Modao randomly from the warehouse, and experiment with the test stone.

Every time the knife went down, the test stone broke, and the Mo knife was unscathed.

Qin Meng nodded in satisfaction: "Well, this job is well done. I went to Qi Yuan and said that the general said that he would transfer five sheep to improve the lives of the brothers in the blacksmith team. , Tell my brothers, if the Modao created are of this level, this general must have faith in his words."

Hou Chao was overjoyed. Hurry up and thank you.

Qin Meng and Hou Chao checked the warehouse, and they already had sixty Mo knives.

In Hou Chao's view, this is already fast. But Qin Meng had seen mechanized mass production, and seeing such a small output, he could only sigh again and again.

However, things can also be viewed from both sides. If the output is not so low, could Modao be so expensive

Qin Meng asked Zhou Lie to sneak people into the city and smuggled fifty Mo Dao out of the city, asking him and Xie Yun to choose two extremely capable soldiers and train to use Mo Dao.

Then, Qin Meng had someone secretly notify Su Cheng and let him take the remaining ten Mo knives.

Su Cheng and Qin Meng are a bit lumpy, but for the sake of Mo Dao, they can only come to Qin Meng in person.

It hurts no one to smash out two hundred and fifty war horses.

However, at Qin Meng's request, Su Cheng personally tried Mo Dao, feeling that these war horses had not been thrown in vain.

"General Qin. Can we increase the supply? So, I heard Ding Liang say that the price of a stranger here has risen to three war horses, and I won't bargain. Give me a hundred more. How?" Su Cheng said pleadingly.

"Stop it, stop it. General Su. Your rank is much higher than mine. Don't you call it that way? It's unrealistic to increase supply. You can ask General Ding, my subordinates are still waiting for equipment. The hundred of you, General Ding came out. Seriously. You really have to thank him, otherwise, I don’t want to pick up the hundred."

Su Cheng was choked for a while, and said in deep thought: "Qin... I know, my brother, I suspected you when discussing matters in the military account of Shuijianling. However, you only took five hundred people, and none of them were damaged and entered the Turkic heavy encirclement. Place, believe you and I will be so suspicious if I change positions, right?"

Qin Meng said sincerely: "General Su, I, Qin Meng, can swear to the sky and never have any prejudice against you in my heart. I can understand whether it's water splashing or you come to me to block the door. But, Mo Knife building is indeed laborious and laborious, and it is not done overnight. The output is not good, and it is useless if I agree."

"Four horses, four war horses! Four war horses for a stranger, how about? Brother, I can't succeed!"

Qin Meng was stunned by Su Cheng. He offered three war horses for a Moknife, and he felt like the lion had already opened his mouth. Unexpectedly, there was a cruel master. Su Cheng was hitting him at a sky-high price!

"General Su, this. Isn't this a bit too much? The cavalry is extremely mobile, and with the new type of sword, it can also form an advantage over the Turkic cavalry. Why stare at the Mo Dao for fear that the gain is not worth the loss." Qin Meng persuaded.

Su Cheng sighed: "Brother Qin, your 500 people defeated the Turkic elite, and the impression left by our great generals is too deep. Concentrating on absolute local superiority, breaking through a little bit, and then breaking through the entire line of defense, this pair of Turkic people, basically There is no solution. I have led soldiers for many years, how many battles have been fought with Turkic people, how many people have died, cough..."

A long sigh touched the pain in Qin Meng's heart.

"General Su. I can only promise you fifty more swords, and you can give one hundred and twenty war horses. But remember, don’t tell others that I’m giving you a discount, otherwise I won’t be here. It's easy."

Su Cheng's eyes lit up, and he quickly grabbed Qin Meng's hands: "Cheng, Cheng, brother, don't worry, if Su Cheng tells me, I will be struck by lightning, and I won't die!"

"Okay, let's not bet and swear, okay? Modao, I need time to supply it. You will first give me fifty war horses, and the remaining 100, wait until Modao is paid, and then settled together, okay ?"

"Okay, okay! Brother Xian, I thank you in advance."

Su Cheng happily took ten Mo knives and left. Qin Meng calculated the output, equipped his tribe, and then satisfies Su Cheng, squeezing hard, there should be no problem.

However, the development of the matter was not what Qin Meng could imagine.

He was trading privately with Ding Liang and Su Cheng here, and other generals knew about it. Soon, Qin Meng was in a crowded place, and there was an endless stream of friends and gifts. It was so lively.

Seeing that the signs were not good, Qin Meng hurriedly offered an excuse to go out to recover from illness, threw the matter at his subordinates, and secretly left the city to cater with Zhou Lie and Xie Yun.

Who knows, just evaded like this, or was found.

Huang Kun had a good friendship with Qin Meng, and he personally went to the Qin Meng military camp, through Qi Yuan, knew Qin Meng's whereabouts, and directly found him.

"Brother, don't you also come to me to ask for a Modao?" Qin Meng really hopes not.

However, what we really hope for is often counterproductive.

"Brother virtuous, do you think I don't know what your situation is with your brother? I ask you for help. If you can push, I mostly push with a black face, but some people are not brothers and I can push them. "Huang Kun said with a depressed look. (End of this chapter)
