From mentioning AK47 to farming in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 77 Transferring the Core
There are places where water sources gather in the Montenegro mountains, and there is a lot of water.

In the past, there were only about 8 people under Zhao Tai's rule, which is not too small. Using the surrounding resources, it can be accommodated near Zhaozhuang, but now the population has swelled to nearly [-].

The amount of water consumed every day can only be described as massive.

The roads in the undeveloped Montenegro are impassable, and even if you go deep, it will be inconvenient.

Now Zhao Tai is going to transfer the core of power to the hinterland of Montenegro, leaving the previous number of farmers and troops stationed on the main roads into the mountain.

He has a ready-made map in his hand, and he knows where there is water.

Just like the Yinma River, the water source in the hinterland of Montenegro also has the two prefixes of Yinma.

It is divided into two manger drinking troughs in the southeast, and a horse drinking trough to the west of the manger. It is said that the spring is actually a large lake that can feed ten thousand horses at the same time.

The Yinma River next to Zhaozhuang is most likely named after the Yinma Spring in the hinterland of Montenegro.

Whether it is or not is not important now.

"Come on, go and call Guanshi Qi to see me."

"Here."

In the original meeting hall of Heishan Village, Zhao Tai looked at the map hanging on the wall and the four red dots marked on it.

Three sites of magnetite, one of chalcopyrite, and magnetite have been located and excavations have begun.

Looking at this map, an immature thought popped up in Zhao Tai's mind.

"If I change my mind and look at Montenegro not as a city or county as a management place, but as an arsenal or a talent training base, would it be more reasonable?"

As soon as this idea popped up, it grew wildly like a weed, occupying Zhao Tai's entire mind, and he couldn't get rid of it no matter what.

A single mountain range is definitely not suitable for a large number of people to live and settle down. No matter how good it is, it is not as good as plains or other livable hilly areas.

In the past, he only wanted to settle down in a corner, and slowly develop and enrich his strength.

His vision was severely limited, but now he suddenly had a new way of thinking, which made his eyes widen.

"Taking out other factors, simply regard Montenegro as the rear of the powerful forces. If you enter, you can invade the world, and if you retreat, you can defend to plot a comeback."

"But will there really be a day when I retire?"

Holding a red core pen in his hand, he drew a line starting from Yinma Spring in the hinterland of Montenegro, and the end of the line connected to Hufeng Valley.

Just like a road out of the mountain, there is a hidden army walking through this road, reaching Hufeng Valley, and walking out of the mountain forest outside the valley.

The tiger looks at the entire Changshan County, and Jingxing County is just next to the tiger's mouth.

"If so, it would make all the difference."

Zhao Tai's thoughts flashed quickly, and he raised his hand to write a few words in Yinma Spring.

"arsenal"

"Talent Cultivation" (Military, Political, Industrial)
In order to avoid too much confusion, Zhao Tai also marked three subdivisions in the back.

"I always feel that this mode and situation are somewhat similar to something."

Zhao Tai thought of the Shuhan Group, the Shuhan who divided the world into three parts.

At that time, Liu Bei had Jingzhou and Yizhou, just like Zhao Tai had Montenegro.

Advancing can be offensive and retreating can be defensive, but because of this, no matter what the situation is, it is impossible to attack.

Good is good, but in the end it also limits its own development. It is hard to say whether success is Longzhong or not.

The current Zhao Tai is very similar to Liu Bei in comparison.

"But even if it's similar to Liu Bei, in the end this Black Mountain can't trap me."

You have Zhuge Liang and many talents to assist you, that is an advantage, but how can I, Zhao Tai, be comparable to your advantage.

What's more, now that Zhao Tai has changed his mind, he looked outside from the beginning, planning in advance, so there's no word to speak of.

"Black Mountain can be the rear, but it cannot be the foundation."

Once the idea was clear, Zhao Tai finalized the deployment.

As for the idea of ​​​​the arsenal, whoever stipulates that it must be a sword, gun, sword, halberd, axe, hook and fork.

If you want to do it, you can do hot weapons, and he doesn't like flintlock guns and matchlock guns.

"Needle gun."

It was a widely used military breech-loading rifle in the 18th century.

It was also the world's first widely equipped breech-loading rifle.

It is an excessive type of gun that replaced the flintlock, and since then the development of heat guns has soared crazily.

Although it was an excessive gun type and was quickly replaced, Zhao Tai always believed that the right one was the best.

It is not difficult to make a needle gun, let alone Zhao Tai can copy it.

The bullets used black powder, but they were not the brass bullets that were common later, but paper-shell acorn-shaped lead bullets. Of course, iron, steel, and copper could also be used.

This kind of bullet is easy to make, as long as there is corresponding paper, it does not need a bullet production line like the later brass bullets.

At this stage, as long as the needle gun is manufactured, more advanced production lines can be developed slowly. Who can beat him with this?
It is mainly based on the knowledge and technology of this era, even if Zhao Tai copied it, no one could create it in a short time.

Needle hair gun must be the first choice.

Even if the production line is still needed, but the requirements and technology are not so high, Zhao Tai can do it completely.

Another point is that the predecessor of the musket did not have a production line, and it was purely hand-made, and the output was very impressive.

And the guns produced are inconsistent in all aspects. If you compare two guns, you can dismantle a part to replace it, but you will find that it cannot be replaced at all.

Zhao Tai will avoid this pitfall and standardize production, that is, product quality, variety specifications, and parts are unified.

If it is broken, replace it at any time, instead of putting it in the rear, you need a craftsman to make a new part out of the product.

Just like assembly line production.

Looking at the map, Zhao Tai didn't even know when Qi Zhou entered the house, and he didn't reply until Qi Zhou made a sound.

"My subordinate pays homage to Duke Ming, I don't know what to summon my subordinate for."

Qi Zhou was very busy, if Zhao Tai hadn't called him here, he wouldn't know where he would be now.

"Zhongji is here, let's take a look at this picture."

He pointed to the map on the wall, which made Qi Zhou stare.

However, Zhao Tai has already produced a lot of things, even having a map is not a big deal.

Anyway, no matter how bizarre something is, it seems to Qi Zhou and the others that it is a reaction.

Oh, this is what Mr. Ming took out, so it's fine.

"What does Mr. Ming mean?"

He looked at it, but he couldn't understand what it meant.

Then Zhao Tai told him his thoughts, and what the lines and points marked on the map represented.

Qi Zhou didn't have much strategy and couldn't give Zhao Tai much advice or direction, but his understanding ability was not bad.

"Duke Ming is far-sighted, and his subordinates admire him."

Anyway, it's over for boasting, and he really felt that Zhao Tai's deployment was promising, and he understood how much benefit it would bring to the forces.

Zhao Tai shook his head, as expected he couldn't expect too much from Qi Zhou and the others.

It's okay to let them do things, but when it comes to strategic deployment, they can praise you for a while if they think it's right, but if they don't, they can't give you much useful advice after refuting.

"Okay, don't be sloppy, and order you to organize people to build an iron smelting furnace as soon as possible, and build a paper mill."

"Organize a large number of people to open a road leading to the hinterland of the mountain range. It is enough for people to walk. Next, I will wait for the core here."

Zhao Tai pointed at the drinking horse spring, confirming the direction of the next forces.

Qi Zhou agreed and ran out to get busy.
