I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 416 Fighting for Materials

The plan was formulated and then reported to the court cabinet.

The large amount of artillery and shells needed for the decisive battle had to be obtained from Nanjing.

The memorial was finally sent to Wu Changqing. He read it carefully and found that there was no problem, so he directly approved the action.

Nanjing Ordnance Manufacturing General Factory.

This is Dahua's largest weapon manufacturing base, which basically covers the manufacture of all weapons.

Of course, there are actually only two arsenals in Dahua at present, and one is in Suzhou.

As for the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, it is even worse, there is only one.

Even if it is to support such an arsenal, the financial pressure is huge.

Liu Jing, the director of the logistics department of the Southern Military Region, came to carry the artillery, shells and newly-baked flintlock pistols again with a batch of approval slips.

Coincidentally, Xu Yuxian of the Northern Military Region also came to lead the army.

Xu Yuxian came late for a while, and Liu Jing took all the supplies.

Xu Yuxian was immediately angry, and stopped Liu Jing at the door, who was commanding the troops to leave, and asked him to give an explanation.

This arsenal supplies the entire military, not the Southern Military Region alone.

The materials produced by this should be distributed equally by everyone. Now the people in the Southern Military Region are better, and they have robbed the materials twice in a row.

How can Xu Yuxian endure this.

"Master Xu, what do you mean?"

Liu Jing complained.

"What do you mean, I also want to ask what you mean? Why, you are fighting in the south of the co-authorship, and the north is sunny and sunny, and there is no war, right? You have removed all the artillery shells, we Carrying the barrel to smash the enemy?"

Xu Yuxian spouted.

"Senior Xu, what you said, the north is still cold, and you are still resting now. Besides, I am here to collect these materials, that is your majesty, and it was approved by the Ministry of War."

Liu Jing smiled, wanting to be vague.

"Fart, is our mother's rest due to the weather? The colder the weather, the better for our army. We haven't moved now, not because of the lack of guns and artillery.

It's fine to give you an entire state-of-the-art mortar battalion. Now even the red-clothed cannons are robbed, and the shells are not spared. Are there any of you who eat alone? "

Xu Yuxian was unrelenting. He came back from the front line this time to supervise the logistics, and then prepare to launch the spring offensive.

If he can't get any supplies, the big bosses and colleagues in the front will blame him.

"Then I don't care, this is what Your Majesty meant. We are going to launch a general attack on Daming now. To fight a decisive battle, we must have so many weapons and equipment."

Liu Jing moved Wu Changqing out again.

However, how could Xu Yuxian be so easily fooled? He stretched out his hand and asked to see the decree.

He did not believe that Wu Changqing would let the arsenal supply all the equipment to the Southern Military Region.

Of course, Liu Jing couldn't take it, because what was written on the edict was rather vague. He just let him deal with it as appropriate and received it in an appropriate amount, but he didn't let him rob all the part of the Northern Legion.

He was just holding chicken feathers as an arrow, ready to grab it first.

As long as things are loaded onto the ship, even if they are found out by the Northern Legion afterwards, they can only scold them at most.

As long as you can get practical benefits, it's nothing to be scolded for a few words.

He had a good idea, but by chance, he met Xu Yuxian.

This was not over yet, just as they were arguing, Li Lianfan from the Central Military Region also came to lead the army.

Seeing them quarreling, Li Lianfan originally wanted to persuade them that they were all family members, so there was nothing to quarrel.

As a result, when he asked the reason, he immediately exploded and joined the competition.

Their central military region also made a plan to move westward, and they were going to destroy He Tengjiao in the west, and put the two treasures of Hunan and Hubei into their pockets.

And this requires materials.

"You two, why are you so pedantic and narrow-minded. You are all doing things for Your Majesty. I'm not using these shells to hit the enemy, but to sell them for money?

Let's finish this battle first, and let it all be left to you. "

Liu Jing complained.

He was a little flustered when he was about to carry two people at once, and there was already some request in his words.

Originally, he didn't care.

Although they have to prepare for a decisive battle, they don't need so much ammunition.

He is also thinking of being prepared and wanting to take advantage of it, so he will get it first.

Anyway, the cannonball doesn't expire.

"Why should you finish the fight first? We also have an offensive plan. This batch of supplies must be divided equally, or you won't want to leave today."

Xu Yuxian said.

Divide?

This Liu Jing will definitely not agree. They are now preparing for the decisive battle. It is normal and reasonable to distribute more supplies.

He was wrong because he shouldn't have taken all of them, but if he wants to share it, it is impossible.

The three couldn't argue, and when they were excited, they almost started fighting.

The people in the arsenal couldn't stand it any longer, and hurriedly came over to fight.

In the end, they could only make trouble with Dai Zhijun.

As the head of the General Logistics Department, Dai Zhijun has the power to make decisions.

Of course, Dai Zhijun also has to take into account the other military bosses and cannot be partial, otherwise he will offend people for no reason, and there is no such thing as that.

necessary.

"Nonsense, the three of you are all high-ranking officials at any rate, and you are like a shrew in the market, fighting and arguing in broad daylight. If this kind of thing spreads, my Dahua military face will be disgraced by the three of you. already."

Dai Zhijun first gave them a hard meal to prevent similar situations from happening in the future.

Of course, what he said was a bit heavy.

It's just a little quarrel, it's not a contradiction at all, nor is it shameful.

Whether it was the Ming Dynasty or the Qing Dynasty, its military was very disunited.

In the Qing Dynasty, Dorgon and Duo Duo competed with each other for power and profit. In the Ming Dynasty, the emperor and the Zheng family were at odds.

These problems are much more serious than this contradiction of the Dahua military.

After the reprimand, Dai Zhijun took the lead and divided the batch of materials.

The big head was still allocated to the Southern Legion. After all, the Southern Legion had a big decisive battle to fight, and the consumption of arms would definitely be huge.

The rest were assigned to the Northern Corps. After all, they were on the front line of the anti-Qing Dynasty and had practical needs.

As for the Central Military Region, this time there was nothing.

There is no way to do this. The materials are so small. If they are divided, the Northern Military Region and the Central Military Region will not be able to allocate enough materials. It is better to concentrate on one side first.

As for the Central Military Region, Dai Zhijun could only explain the reason to Li Shaobin himself.

Compared with Liu Hansan and Wang Dayong, the two reckless men who don't like to reason, Li Shaobin is better at speaking and more righteous.

Moreover, compared with the war in the south and the north, the war in the western region is not so urgent, and it can indeed be reserved for later.

After distributing the supplies, Dai Zhijun still has to worry about expanding the arsenal.

Distribution can only cure the symptoms but not the root cause. To solve the problem, we still have to increase production capacity.

However, expanding the arsenal requires money, and where the money comes from is another question.
