Take the system back to the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 114 The little girl with the slingshot

The helpless thing is that the program this guy is proposing now is definitely not wrong, and it is really a big proposition.The dynasties have been changing for thousands of years. As he said, everyone is the same as a bird, but the most essential culture has been passed on.

There is no need to doubt Hanwa's diligence and kindness. Take the mountain people who are hungry and hungry under his command now. It is very adaptable and energetic, and can work from dawn to sunset in the scorching sun or heavy rain every day, including the elderly.

This is a kind of efficiency that Bai Chenxiang thought hard but never thought would appear.As a result, now logging and chopping firewood to pick up charcoal, strengthening the city walls to build houses, producing cement, etc., without exception, the atmosphere is very good.

After countless dynasties, and even the inhuman years of the Five Hus and Five Dynasties, what seems to remain the same is the essence of this group of people.From this point of view, the most serious harm to this group of people is of course the Man Hu, followed by the wanted criminals like Wang Xiu, who are insane and murderous without batting an eyelid, and finally profiteers and the government.

"Well, you are always very convincing, a scholar. Believe you this time, and I won't believe you next time."

Bai Chenxiang was a little discouraged at the thought of the end, and subconsciously wanted to break into Tokyo one day and become her own queen, but in this moment of internal and external troubles, barbarians ready to move, and robbers and murderers sharpening their knives.This behavior seemed a bit bullying and fearless, and it definitely violated the spiritual program of this scholar.

Thinking about it, he turned his head and rolled his eyes a few more times, and simply didn't want to think about these big propositions. He would be a brainless bandit, with his sister in charge of the charge and the black-bellied scholar in charge of the program.

Shaking his head, Bai Chenxiang said: "We haven't seen each other for a long time, I miss you so much, do you want to come to my room and talk about some private topics?"

Zhao Cheng was a little shy, "Take me to see the situation of the slingshot training, now you and I are very busy."

……

The slingshot training ground is in full swing, and the crackling noises everywhere are the sound of steel balls being fired from a slingshot and hitting objects.

I heard from Bai Chenxiang that now, due to poor technique and misuse, it happens from time to time that I hurt my hand when shooting steel balls, or the fork of the slingshot is broken.

Zhao Cheng will definitely not have experience with these things. The good thing is that Bai Chenxiang is talented in these things, and she herself is practicing hard. Everyone.

In addition, regarding the amount of training, Zhao Cheng estimated that it was more objective at the time. Under Bai Chenxiang's control, basically everyone can have nearly [-] rounds of training per day, and the overall quality of short-range strikes has improved rapidly.

Divided into groups of five, they can get to know each other during training and live in small groups. Every two days, there will be a slingshot competition between these small groups, with some rewards and punishments.

After watching it for a moment, Bai Chenxiang said with confidence, "Scholar, you are amazing. The slingshot artifact you provided is second to none. Its biggest feature is its ease of use. I am very confident that I can withstand Wang Xiubu's."

Zhao Cheng is different from her, not pessimistic but not so optimistic either.

Whether or not the cottage can be held depends on Wang Xiubu's program, quality, and equipment.In short, in terms of the number of people and the value of personal force, Yangshanzhaizi lost too much to Wang Xiubu.

Bai Chenxiang has an incomparably powerful system skill "Taizu Heart Method", the cohesion of the army's morale is definitely not a problem, but war is a collision of strength after all.

To say yes, of course bows and arrows are better.In this era, training an entire formation of qualified longbowmen is really the concept of invincibility I have in the world.But the key is cost and price. To put it bluntly, it can always involve money.

Not to mention the magic arm bow of the Ministry of Military Affairs, in terms of the productivity of this era, to make a good longbow, it basically takes dozens of copper coins per minute to make a great craftsman who spends several years and uses countless secret recipes The process can take shape.

The Song Dynasty did not lack contemporary technology, and its productivity was relatively high compared to ancient times.

But now that Zhao Cheng is involved in military affairs and equipment, he is considered an expert.So how much does it cost to buy a good longbow made by a great craftsman in the official market of Song Dynasty?The answer is: it is equivalent to spending tens of thousands to buy a car in future generations.

The Song Dynasty paid attention to secret recipes. This kind of technical work must have high added value. In addition to the ancient technical productivity, there are no magical composite materials. All rely on skilled and experienced carpenters to use special wood treatment techniques to repeatedly shape and bake. , air drying, paint and other processes to determine the durability and thrust of the bow.

The divine arm bow is the pinnacle of this kind of craftsmanship, and it can also be regarded as the pinnacle of material science in the Song Dynasty.People with this kind of technology must be the top elites, so they concentrate on military manufacturing supervisors to produce magic arm bows with higher wages, and the magic arm bows will be more expensive.

As for the bows used by ordinary Xiang army archers, they have been put to sleep. They are all crudely made for psychological comfort. Strictly speaking, they are not qualified weapons. Otherwise, they will break and be damaged after just pulling a few times. Otherwise, you need to shoot a hen from a closer distance. .

Of course, the bows used by Dutou are not bad products, and they really cost nearly a hundred guan to purchase.It is because of these reasons that the black hole of military expenditure in the Song Dynasty is shockingly large.

Assuming that Song Dynasty has 5.00 Dutou (in fact, there will be more), just the equipment of these mid-level officers, not including horses and armor wages and corruption, need to fill in [-]% of Song Dynasty's annual finances.

For this reason, the eight levels of the Song Dynasty's finances have been used for military expenses in history.

Let’s not talk about the way to grow the land in the future. Now that he owns a slingshot with very low cost, easy to train and basically qualified lethality, Bai Chenxiang has some confidence and prospects.As for Zhao Cheng, he only thought it was an expedient measure, and of course the slingshot was not a long-term solution.

In addition, the concept of "women hold up half the sky" has almost doubled the working population and productivity.In fact, the same is true in terms of combat power, according to the scholar's program, and based on the fact that Bai Chenxiang is a woman, there is no need to deliberately promote propaganda, and the women of Yangshanzi are in a "liberated" state.

Even physical labor such as picking limestone and carrying cement involves a considerable number of women.

In the long-distance combat team designated by Bai Chenxiang, there are also about one-tenth of women.For example, now, when Zhao Cheng observes their slingshot training, he finds that the best slingshot hits are a group of mothers and daughters. The mother is very young, neither beautiful nor ugly. Her skin is slightly dark because of her life in the mountains, and she speaks less.

The daughter is an 11-year-old girl, the same girl who just robbed the salt bar with explosive power.

After careful observation, the little girl's slingshot skills are simply unsurpassed in the cottage.

Zhao Cheng used a pen to make statistics. He watched her shoot about twenty shots at a 15-meter target. Not one of her shots missed the target, and her results were relatively stable. There were about two shots with eight rings, five shots with seven rings, and a maximum of six shots. Five Rings.The worst one is also three rings, and not many.

People with insufficient skills and talents cannot achieve such stability.In similar technical activities, whether the tenth ring or the ninth ring is actually not very important, the most important indicator is actually stability.

Zhao Cheng pointed to the little girl curiously and asked, "How long has this girl practiced?"

Bai Chenxiang said: "About five days, she was more diligent and active, and the total number of trainings was less than [-] rounds. She was not allowed to practice before, but she always clamored to shoot the slingshot, and then an old man was eliminated at the end, let's try it out In the mood, let her join in."

"interesting……"

Zhao Cheng murmured.
