Chapter 760 Make Youzhou City a Real Military Fortress (Second Update)
Chapter 769

"It seems that they are really aimed at our land of the three states. Now, the lands of Yin and Xia are building large-scale construction projects, such as building ladders, rushing carts, and battering rams. If it is not for our three states In the land of Zhouzhou, could it be that they want to use these siege weapons to fight against the 20 troops of the Liao Kingdom in the wild?" Wang Yang threw the information in his hand on the case table, and took a long breath foul air.

This is already the third day since Wang Yang arrived in Youzhou, and the whole Youzhou is now in a tense and orderly state.

The arrival of a large amount of paper armor, the arrival of Yuanyou armor and Yuanyou crossbows that Wang Yang personally went to Yanzhou to fetch, and the stationing of [-] border troops in Yanzhou.

At this moment, there are [-] frontier troops, [-] Xiang troops, and [-] elite cavalry in Youzhou City, of which [-] are Yuanyou Jiaqi.

In addition, with the supplement of 5000 yuan of crossbows and the patchwork, there are [-] crossbows and [-] bows in Youzhou City.In addition, a large number of crossbows and arrows were filled into the arsenal, and among the two thousand craftsmen who were brought in, one thousand craftsmen were making crossbows and arrows at a rate of [-] per day.

In addition, there are [-] pairs of paper armors that have already arrived in Youzhou. Currently, Youzhou is also rushing to make paper armors, in addition to making paper armors.There is also a group of about [-] craftsmen, who are being divided into several departments, each making various parts of Yuanyou stone throwing machine.

And its core components can still only be in charge of those ten or so old craftsmen, and the safety of these ten or so old craftsmen is directly in charge of by Wang Yang's personal soldiers, as well as the kind of division and the two hundred personal guards transferred. People are not allowed to approach the courtyard, or they will be killed.

"It is estimated that there will be three more days before five Yuanyou catapults can be produced, and the rest will take at least ten days. After all, the difficulty of making this kind of weapon is already high. Now, in order to keep it secret, we have added more There are many complicated procedures..." Although Zhong Shihe had not seen the power of Yuanyou's trebuchet with his own eyes.

However, he personally rushed to the ancient city of Wuyan, which was under restoration, to appreciate the scene of the ruins destroyed by Yuanyou's catapult. It will strictly guard against the secrecy of this long-range weapon to such an extent.

After all, if this kind of thing falls into the hands of the Liao Kingdom or Xixia, it will inevitably become a nightmare for the Song Dynasty in the city defense war in the future.

"Slower, slower. In short, the main purpose of everything is confidentiality, which must not be ignored." Wang Yang was also helpless, but in order to keep it confidential, he had to do this.

In fact, he had already proposed to the emperor before that the important core components of the Yuanyou stone throwing machine should be manufactured by the military supervision, but the speed of the court is really too fast.

For this reason, the Son of Heaven specially allowed Wang Yang to act cheaply. Otherwise, wait until the Military Weapons Supervision arranges manpower and trains them to become veteran drivers before starting work. Maybe the land of the Three States will already be full of wars.

Most of the family members of the Xiang army in Youzhou followed the advice and left Youzhou for Hongzhou, but only a few stayed. In addition, not many Han people in Youzhou left. Now, in Youzhou There were less than 2 people in the country, but the Xiang army and the border troops totaled more than [-], far exceeding the people.

It also turned the entire Youzhou into a real military fortress, and when he received the news that the Yinxia area was building siege weapons, Wang Yang immediately summoned the defense envoy of Youzhou and Tang Xuncheng, the general judge of Yuzhou. , Tell the two of them the content of the intelligence.

Seeing this information, the two of them had no doubts anymore, Zhong Shihe took a deep breath and stood up, not only did not show any timidity, on the contrary, he was eager to fight. "It's a good time to come. To be honest, Chong was really afraid that they wouldn't come. It made us prepare for so long for nothing."

Tang Xuncheng, unlike Master Zhong, looked very sad. "The grain reserves in our city are enough for the army and the people for half a year, as well as dried meat and pickles. However, the shortage of doctors you requested, Mr. Wang, is really too big. So far, we have spent a lot of money to hire them. The total number of doctors and their apprentices is less than seventy..."

"Is there any problem with the accumulation of medicines?" Wang Yang nodded and continued to ask about various preparations.What fights is logistics.And by finding the opponent's target from the clues of intelligence, I made preparations nearly a month in advance.

It can be regarded as taking care of yourself. As for the lack of recruited doctors, the biggest reason is that gentlemen don’t stand under the wall. If you fight a f*cking war, it is a matter of life. Those doctors can save lives and heal the wounded, but those who really have the spirit of dedication Definitely still in the minority.

Except for more than a dozen medical officers, the number of doctors hired with money and their apprentices was less than [-].According to Wang Yang's previous considerations, a [-] army needs at least [-] medical soldiers, and the number of doctors must be at least one hundred to one, that is, [-] defenders need at least [-] doctors.

But now it seems that the shortage is too big. Wang Yang doesn't want the soldiers who could have been rescued to die in Youzhou because of the shortage of manpower.

"Let's do this. You can think of a way to see if you can recruit some more doctors. In addition, tell the medical officers not to hide their secrets for me, and let them lead apprentices. You must train them before the war comes. Send out two thousand medical soldiers who at least know how to stop bleeding, how to treat wounds, and how to bandage wounds."

"Two thousand... Sir, are you joking? The skills of a doctor are not so easy to learn. Besides, there are not so many wounded people who let them learn these skills." Tang Xuncheng's eyes widened. It's going to be a circle, this fucking is definitely a joke.

"...For me, forget it, tell all the doctors, this afternoon, go to the Beimen Medical Center to gather, since the soft ones are not enough, then come hard, I will let you see, it is their bones that are hard , or the gold and silver in Mr. Wang's hands are harder." Wang Yang raised his brows, but finally suppressed the fire, now is not the time to get angry.

After that, he asked a lot of questions in detail and sorted out all the preparations and supplies needed before the war.

#####
At noon, after a hurried lunch, Wang Yang and other officials and generals rode their horses to the medical center in the north of the city.

There are still pedestrians in the streets of Youzhou City, but they are much rarer than before, and there are more teams of young men led by guards, who are cleaning ditches or digging wells.

In addition, almost all the utensils in the city that can hold clean water have been filled. In addition, Wang Yang also specially built nearly fifty water tanks made of cement masonry in Youzhou City. Each water tank can store at least More than ten cubic meters.

Although they are not large, at least it can be guaranteed that if the groundwater body is polluted, at least the population in the city can have clean water to drink.

Youzhou was divided into five medical clinics by Wang Yang, four of which were set up in the courtyard near the city gate, so that the wounded could seek medical treatment as soon as they left the city wall.
