Chapter 809: Traveling to the Alliance

As soon as the New Year's holiday ended, Gao Yuan came to the craftsman's workshop to learn about the operation of the various craftsman's workshops in Lingshou. Of course, the main thing is to check the work of the Mo family's younger children.

The disciples of the Mo family are the craftsmen who settled in Lingshou at the earliest, and at this time there have been more than half a year, and the wood workshops of the disciples of the Mo family have also been run smoothly, and now there are fifteen wood workshops of all sizes, six warehouses of raw materials and three warehouses of finished products, and there is also a large testing ground in the suburbs. In addition to the original disciples of the Mo family, there are more than 2,000 other craftsmen.

And according to the official system of the Han Kingdom, craftsmen are not ordinary civilians, if they are outstanding, they can also obtain the official rank, and now Mo Jing, Mo Cheng, and Mo Ye are the three leaders of the Mo family, and they have all obtained the official rank of Fengzheng Doctor on the six products, and the craftsmen who have obtained the official rank have reached more than 300, of which the Mo family brothers account for half.

Although the official rank that craftsmen can get is not high, and the highest official rank can only reach the fifth grade, it is still very attractive to craftsmen, because they are given official ranks, and although they do not have any power, their political rights and social status have been greatly improved, which means that they are no longer ordinary civilians, but have officially entered the official gentry class.

At the same time, the plateau also introduced the flow construction method in the carpentry workshop, which greatly improved the work efficiency, and during this time, there were new vehicles almost every day, and a total of more than 200 vehicles of various kinds were manufactured.

This also made Mo Jing, Mo Cheng, Mo Ye and other leaders of the Mo family admire, because when the plateau just put forward the idea of flow construction, several people did not believe that this construction method could improve the efficiency of construction, in their opinion, flow construction and ordinary construction is no different, it is nothing more than to disperse a job to several people to do, each person only pays one part of the responsibility, and then the group is excited.

But because this is the requirement of the plateau, so a few people did not dare to ignore, so they had to hold the heart of trying, a small wooden workshop formed an assembly line for production, but the result of a try, several people were surprised, the original assembly line was formed, this small wooden workshop will increase the production efficiency by more than two percent. Although a few people still can't understand the truth, they also know that the assembly line mentioned by Gao Yuan is not a decision to pat the head, but it is really effective.

So several people immediately set up an assembly line in the three woodworking workshops, and optimized the organizational structure of the production line, so that the work efficiency of the entire woodworking workshop was greatly improved. And with the gradual establishment and expansion of the production lines of other wood workshops in the future, there is still considerable room for improvement.

In fact, as early as after the end of the battle of the Qin Dynasty, Gao Yuan ordered the carpentry workshop of Dai County to imitate the style of various chariots of the Qin army and carry out cottages, and by the time the plateau returned from the grassland, about 300 chariots of various kinds had been manufactured. After the Mo family brothers joined, at the beginning, they mainly produced large trebuchets, and the four-wheeled carriages that the plateau asked them to design and make, and the other was to study the chariots of the Shanzhai Qin army, optimize and improve the performance of these chariots, and also produce some agricultural production tools, which were tried in the farms near Daijun.

After the relocation of the capital, the plateau left its wooden workshops for agriculture in Daigun, while the wooden workshops of Lingshou were mainly used to make military equipment, including various chariots, vehicles and other tools.

At present, Lingshou has produced a total of 28 lightning trucks, 132 arrow trucks, 117 thunderbolt cars, 185 Ruyi cars, 87 punching cars, 127 bed crossbows, 88 trebuchets, 123 tower cars, and 536 ladders. Thirty-eight four-wheeled carriages.

Among the chariots used by the Qin army, only the Linchong Lu bus was not made, because Gao Yuan believed that although the Linchong Lu bus was huge, and it integrated attack and defense, there were many weaknesses, and the cost of the Linchong Lu bus was too high, and a Linchong Lu bus was enough to build twenty or thirty other chariots, which was too cost-effective, so the plateau did not require the Linchong Lu bus to be made.

It turned out that the chariots of the Qin army had been improved and optimized by the disciples of the Mo family, mainly according to the style of the four-wheeled carriage, with the addition of suspension system and steering system, so that the fit of the ride was more, and the power of the vehicle-mounted weapons was strengthened.

For example, the small crossbow used by the arrow truck is replaced with a crossbow designed by the Mo family, one can be loaded with eight crossbow arrows, and the range can reach sixty to seventy steps, and the crossbow arrows are fired in one combination with the arrow magazine. Compared with the original arrow car, the driving performance is better and the combat effectiveness is stronger.

Moreover, at this time, Gao Yuan had already formed a chariot corps in the First Army Corps and the Second Corps, and began to train chariots and other arms to cooperate and cooperate in combat. The other is to use a giant trebuchet to conduct siege drills, because it will be used soon.

After inspecting the wood workshop, Gao Yuan was basically very satisfied, and at the same time asked Mo Jing and others to step up the production of lightning strikes and four-carriages during this time, and strive to make the number of lightning strikes reach 60 by May; There were two hundred four-wheeled carriages, and if you really wanted to storm the girders, these large equipment would be useful.

Two days later, Gao Yuan received Zhang Liang's return, and Qi had officially decided to hold the Three Kingdoms Alliance in Taoyi on February 12 to formally form a joint alliance, and the conditions for all countries to participate in the alliance remained unchanged.

It takes about ten to fifteen days from Lingshou to Taoyi, and although the current time is quite sufficient, the plateau cannot be delayed, so the ministers of civil and military affairs are immediately invited to gather.

According to the agreement reached by the three countries in Lingshou before, go to Taoyi to participate in the alliance, each country can bring 15,000 troops, and each country can lead 5,000 people into Taoyi City, and the army is not limited, although the relationship between Han and Qi is very good now, so it is impossible to take precautions, and it is also possible that Qin and Han Teng will make some moves when the three countries are in the alliance, and bring a strong army to show military prestige, and can also show the strength of Han in front of Qi and Chu, which is also conducive to Han taking the initiative in this meeting.

Among the six legions formed by the Han State, the strength of the 123rd Army is the strongest, and the strongest military branch of the Han State is naturally the cavalry, and the strongest of the cavalry is the Fan Yong Army, and now there are three Fan Yong Army, which are divided into left, middle and right armies, which serve in the 123rd Army respectively, and there are also heavy armored cavalry troops, and now there are two branches, which are subordinate to the 1st and 3rd Army Corps; Among the infantry troops, the strongest is the Beiwei Army, which is now divided into two armies, the left and right, which are subordinate to the First and Third Army Corps respectively. There is also the scout army with the strongest overall strength, and now each of the six legions has a scout army, with a number of between 1,000 and 1,500 people. There are also newly formed chariot armies and beast armies.

Therefore, the armies that are brought to join the alliance must be selected from among these armies. In the end, Gao Yuan made a distribution plan, leading 5,000 brave troops, 1,000 heavily armored cavalry troops, 5,000 back army, 500 scout soldiers, 100 chariots of all kinds, 500 soldiers, and 500 beast training soldiers. In addition, there are 500 Weining troops as the guards of the plateau, and the remaining 2,000 troops are logistics support soldiers.

This kind of matching scheme makes the various arms very even, there are no obvious shortcomings and loopholes, and it is 1,500 more beasts, which is actually no less than thousands of soldiers, so such a combination is enough to fight more than twice the army. And the general who commands the army is Ling Feng.

The minister has no objection to this matching scheme, because this is formulated by Gao Yuan, of course, this is not only because Gao Yuan is the monarch, but also Gao Yuan himself is a contemporary famous general, and he naturally has his own considerations when he formulates such a matching plan.

After Gao Yuan left Lingshou, Li Yinghong acted as the supervisor of the country and presided over the daily government affairs, and the rest of the affairs continued as usual, but Gao Yuan still asked the cabinet to immediately start preparing for war, allocate materials, and collect troops, because when Gao Yuan returned to Lingshou, it was very likely that he would immediately go out and start participating in the battle of the joint expedition against Qin. Ning Qi led the ministers of the cabinet to accept Gao Yuan's order and let Gao Yuan leave with peace of mind.

In the afternoon of the same day, Zhao Xuan invited Gao Yuan to negotiate with Gao Yuan about the arrangements of the Guigumen people.

At this time, the people of Guigumen had already lived in Lingshou for nearly four months, and according to Zhao Xuan's requirements, they were all arranged to serve in Jinyiwei, which was actually to familiarize them with Lingshou, and also to examine and understand them. And now the people of Guigumen are basically familiar with the situation of Lingshou, and Zhao Xuan has a certain understanding of each of them, and Zhao Xuan also has a general idea of how to arrange the way out for some of them, so he specially came to report to the plateau.

After listening to Zhao Xuan's words, Gao Yuan was also quite ashamed, it turned out that in the past few months, except when the people of Guigumen first came to Lingshou, Gao Yuan personally met them once, and then when Gao Yuan called the king ceremony, Zhao Xuan led the people of Guigumen to enter the palace like a plateau to celebrate, and then because there have always been different things on the plateau, so the people of Guigumen have almost forgotten, if it weren't for Zhao Xuan reminding Gao Yuan now, I don't know when I can remember.

You must know that the people of Guigumen are not ordinary people, and I believe that if you can make the best use of them, you will improve your strength by a level, fortunately, Zhao Xuan has always remembered it, and has a plan for the arrangement of the people of Guigumen, otherwise I am afraid that these people will have to be dried for a while.
