Invasion of the martial arts world

Chapter 375 Development of Qingzhou
In the world of the Three Kingdoms, this group of women is not familiar with the Three Kingdoms. In their era, the occasional storytellers are legends. Even Cheng Lingsu, who was born after the Romance of the Three Kingdoms novels, only cares about medical skills and does not know these ancient things;

But they all wanted to help Chen Mo, and after thinking about it, Wu Xingyun, the oldest, called on the sisters to form a thousand-strong female guard. Now the school ground behind the General's Mansion is a large group of women training more girls to practice martial arts.

In Penglai, where Chen Mo was entrusted, several hundred-ton flat-bottomed warships have been built at this moment. More than five thousand naval troops are training according to Chen Mo's requirements. When the army is formed, it is the day when the coast moves eastward and southward.

Chen Mo was happiest when he found a large-scale sulfur mine in the south of Shandong Province, which happens to be a place that the Qingzhou Army can control. He sent an army to station around to prevent the Yellow Turban Army from appearing from time to time, and more than ten thousand people mined it. ore refining sulfur.

As for saltpeter, Qingzhou produces it in large quantities. The production of saltpeter in the Dongchang area is so large that Chen Mo dares to say that he can make explosives that can kill everyone on the earth.

With these two necessary items, Chen Mo asked craftsmen to build a simple factory to produce sulfuric acid and nitric acid as far as he knew. Although it had a huge impact on the surrounding environment, there was no way to do it. He was not the only one who temporarily affected future generations. People do it.

With these conditions, Chen Mo's firearms room is constantly improving and perfecting according to Chen Mo's technical drawings. That is to say, when the firecrackers and earthen cannons appeared years ago, the tens of thousands of firearms and hundreds of cannons in Chen Mo's inventory were almost ready for use. .

Chen Mo intends to build an artillery force of 50 musketeers and thousands of cannons, and then sweep the Central Plains and regain the world in one fell swoop, so even if his explosives are already available, he will not use them for the time being unless he has to.

His current plan is to take it step by step. Now that the world is in chaos, he is going to destroy the foundation that everyone can barely maintain, that is Emperor Xian Liu Xie who is still in Dong Zhuo's hands.

Kong Rong and others all hoped that Chen Mo's status would be as high as possible, so that everyone could rise to the top. Chen Mo doesn't really care, as long as the world is in chaos and everyone is king everywhere, he is nothing like a general of hussars.

Looking at everyone who looked forward to it, it was impossible for Chen Mo to say that he didn't care. His subordinates hoped that Chen Mo would go up step by step. This was a foundation that could make them more cohesive and generate motivation.

Chen Mo nodded his head in recognition of the incident and said:
"So be it, the world is unstable now, the people of Qingzhou are strong and prosperous, and the irrigation and drainage facilities of reservoirs and canals in various places have been gradually developed, so the local government only hopes that everyone will control and not allow corrupt officials to appear, let alone aristocratic families bullying the people, Brother Wen Ju , you have been responsible for governing Qingzhou in recent years except Beihai and Donglai. How is the situation now?"

"In the past few years, three prefects, seven county magistrates, and dozens of various officials have been beheaded, and the officialdom of Qingzhou has been completely purged. As for the leaders of the two aristocratic families who wanted to collude with the Yellow Turbans to cause trouble, they were all killed, and the family members who participated were severely punished. , any dissatisfied women and children will still be dealt with, and the rest will go their separate ways to become farmers." Kong Rong replied with a smile.

"That's not bad. Use heavy codes in troubled times. Don't be polite to them. If the private soldiers raised by those aristocratic families don't hand them over again, I authorize the state shepherd's mansion to punish them for the crime of treason. I will not hesitate to ransack the family and exterminate the family." Chen Mo said with murderous intent in his eyes. .

When Chen Mo read the novels in reality, he always thought that the family of the Three Kingdoms should not be provoked. In reality, as long as he does not need the support of the family, the family will be a scum after he trains basic talents. He can do whatever he wants;
Although Kong Rong and Xun You under his command are both descendants of aristocratic families, their idea is to keep the people stable. Even if Chen Mo's attacks become more and more ruthless, seeing that the people's lives are getting better and better and they support Chen Mo more and more, they will be even more supportive of Chen Mo. I understand what Chen Mo meant when he said that the people are the water and the people in charge are the boats.

Hearing that Chen Mo attacked the family again, but with the private guards in their hands, Xun You said with a smile:

"Now Langya County is implementing the rule of not allowing private soldiers to be kept. Only those aristocratic families are now doing business. The escort bodyguard team we manage exists. They have less money to manage private soldiers. Now they are hiring our bodyguard team instead. They feel more at ease when they go to other continents.”

Chen Mo is also happy. The family needs guards to avoid robbers when they start doing business. Qingzhou is disbanding the private soldiers of the family. To ensure their safety, Chen Mo can only form a guard team. These are composed of retired sergeants, and the number is about 1 About [-] people are distributed in the major commercial ports of Qingzhou. As long as the merchants need it, they can hire them with money. Under the escort of these guards whose combat power is far superior to that of ordinary elites, very few merchants' goods are robbed.

Of course, the greater role of these escorts is still as spies. They travel back and forth to various places for a period of ten days or even half a year, and they bring back news from various places.

"That's the best. Qingzhou is our foundation. How is the recruitment of soldiers recently?" Chen Mo nodded and asked Wu Anguo.

"The recruitment of 15 recruits has been completed, and they are training in various recruit camps. Many locals who cannot join the army are participating in local village training. If we need it, we can recruit [-] troops within one month without affecting normal production." Wu Anguo replied.

"There is no need for this. We are recruiting troops step by step. For the time being, [-] troops are enough for us. Just step up training. How many refugees have entered Qingzhou recorded by Wen Zhang, and how are the arrangements?" Chen Mo turned to look at the boss Chen Lin and asked .

This Chen Lin was He Jin's master in the past, and she was also a great writer. After He Jin's death, he fled to Luoyang. Not long after Chen Mo returned to Qingzhou, he learned that Xun You's old partner had arrived here, and he also came to join Chen Mo. There is intrigue, and Chen Mo doesn't like others to flatter him. Chen Lin's life is much easier than before.

As Chen Mo's family member, Chen Lin was even more considerate in assisting him. When he heard Chen Mo's question, he quickly said:
"I counted the refugees and some literati who came from the nearby state capitals of Ji, Yan, Xu, and Yang in the past few years. The number of refugees is probably more than 300 million. Even if the literati come to study or settle down, there are thousands of them. ;
By the way, Wang Qian and his family came here a few days ago. Dare I ask if the general can arrange one or two for them? "

Chen Mo's eyes flickered and said:

"Wang Qian, who was the chief official of the former general? His son Wang Jie is Mr. Cai's disciple. Now that he is here, when I issue the general order, Wang Qian will still be my chief official. If his son is willing, he can come. Walking in the General's Mansion, I heard that he has a photographic memory, if he wants to do something, he can be yours, and when he is older, he will take over from you, and then you and I will be of great use."
