The Tiger Crouching Cannon can produce about 35 guns a month. According to the production rate, there should be about 190 guns now.
However, daily training also takes its toll.
Today's craftsmanship is likely to break if you fire more than a hundred cannons, so now there are only 170 guns left.
Song Yang stood up and said: "Okay! Just produce 240 to 50 doors. It will take more than a month. From now on, we will only keep 200 to 250 doors. If they are broken, we will make up for the number. No. Let’s increase the quantity.”
After all, the Crouching Tiger Cannon is just an over-the-counter product. More than two hundred cannons are enough to deal with all the enemies in front of you. This is enough.
After the Tiger Crouching Cannon is stopped, Daye's steel can be used to improve people's livelihood and develop.
As for the next generation of Fran cannon, there is no rush. Once the production of the Crouching Tiger gun is over, a few teams will be left to slowly develop it.
In early June, King Hongzhou sent a letter to Jiangzhou Fucheng.
Ever since the Battle of Raozhou, King Hongzhou has been extremely peaceful and did not even dare to contact Song Yang at all.
He was afraid that Song Yang would come after him.
It wasn't until Song Yang came back from Fangzhou that Shen Xiaowan mentioned to Shen Linglong that she had become Song Yang's woman.
King Hongzhou felt that he was standing up again.
Not only is Song Yang's uncle, he is also his uncle...
Of course, King Hongzhou was not too complacent, but he no longer had to live on tenterhooks.
At the end of May, members of various alliances came to Yuzhang to ask him about when he would use troops against Tanzhou.
The reason why the members of the alliance are so active is mainly because of the constant urging of the two kings of Shaozhou and Hengzhou.
In the past six months, alliance members have made a lot of money through normal trade.
They urgently need a stable social environment, so they are also very enthusiastic about fighting enemies.
"My nephew Yangxian of Song Dynasty." were written in large characters on the cover of King Hongzhou's letter.
It can be seen from the tone that King Hongzhou is still afraid of Song Yang.
Song Yang opened the envelope with a smile, and after reading it, he circulated the letter to everyone.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Song Mao came back from the summons the day before yesterday. There seemed to be some changes in the thieves in the direction of Tanzhou. I just sent a letter to Wang Ran and Lin Yong yesterday asking them to explore the direction of Tanzhou. I didn't expect the letter from King Hongzhou today. almost there."
Yu Ming handed the letter to Ma Cheng and then said to Song Yang.
"The letter from Mr. Song Mao said that the thieves seemed to be reorganizing their army, and they might launch a preemptive attack on Shaozhou or Hengzhou." Yu Ming added.
"No wonder the Shaoheng and Shaozhou states are eager to send troops to fight against the thieves. It seems that they have also noticed the movements of the Tanzhou thieves."
Ma Cheng also finished reading the letter and continued to pass it to the next few people to read.
"The last batch of squatting tiger artillery is being produced now, but if we send out troops, one hundred and seventy cannons are probably enough. Uncle Wang can rest assured, as soon as my battalion of squatting tiger artillery is launched, I guarantee that they will not be able to find the North. !" Song Chengwang said, clenching his fists.
After that, several people spoke, while Song Yang listened quietly.
The letter was circulated for a week, and Song Tong, the seventh uncle beside Song Yangcai and Kang Xiang, asked:
"What's Uncle Qi's opinion?"
Song Tong shook his head and frowned: "Don't move for now. Wait until the news from over there comes back."
There is indeed not much information in hand right now, so he hastily mobilized troops, not to mention whether he can win or not. Song Yang has a squatting tiger cannon in his hand and is not afraid of any enemy.
However, if Tanzhou’s military deployment is unclear, it is likely that others will lead it.
The brothers and sisters in Tanzhou are not as mentally retarded as Song Kuo's brothers.
"Uncle Qi is right."
Song Yang nodded, and then said to Ming: "Let Yuanzhou also pay attention to what's going on in Tanzhou."
"We must also remain vigilant at all times in the direction of Yuezhou Camp and Ezhou. Those thieves may not go south. We must prevent them from attacking in the east."
"Yes! I understand, I will inform you soon." Yu Ming clasped his fists.
"Old Fang, please reply to King Hongzhou and ask each alliance member to prepare the materials. The alliances that can send troops will keep them in mind, and the alliances that cannot send troops must keep up with the supplies."
"Although the battle is fought in Tanzhou, it is a matter for alliance members. Those who want to stay in the alliance must show sincerity."
"This world is not peaceful. If the members of the alliance cannot unite as one, there will be no need to exist!"
Song Yang said in a deep voice.
Fang Zhe nodded and wrote down Song Yang's words. After the meeting, he would go and reply to King Hongzhou.
"We want to use troops against Tanzhou, but there must be no chaos in the rear. There are still conflicts in Jiangning, and we must be prepared to deal with them. If they come forward and point at us, we must attack them head-on."
Having said this, Song Yang looked at Gao Junyan and said, "You are responsible for understanding the situation in Jiangning. If there is any progress, please report to me immediately."
"Yes! I understand," Gao Junyan said hurriedly, cupping his fists.
Having been in Jiangzhou for half a year, Gao Junyan certainly knows what kind of strength Jiangzhou has.
Especially with the two hundred tiger crouching cannons placed there, anyone who wasn't blind would know that those two guys from Jiangning were no match for Song Yang.
Gao Junyan has always maintained close contact with Master Gao.
Father and son originally believed that eggs should not be put in one basket.
After Gao Junyan told the old master that Jiangzhou was invincible, the master Gao asked him to assist Song Yang in Jiangzhou.
As for King Runzhou of Jiangning, although Grand Master Gao did not give up, he hardly did anything to help him.
The old teacher temporarily retreated to the second line due to physical discomfort.
For King Runzhou, when Grand Master Gao retired, power returned to his hands. He was eager for Grand Master Gao to retire.
Of course, King Runzhou also knew about Gao Junyan's stay in Jiangzhou.
It's just that he and Song Yang have no enmity for the time being, and Master Gao plays an important role in Jiangning.
So just turn a blind eye to this matter.
Gao Junyan responded to Song Yang's instructions and said he would leave for Xuanzhou tomorrow.
In order to grasp the situation in the direction of Jiangning nearby.
Song Yang was not afraid of him tipping off the news. With two hundred tiger cannons in hand, Song Yang was no longer afraid.
What's more, it's impossible for Gao Junyan to betray Song Yang now.
They, Lao Gao, are the best at sizing up the situation and will not be stupid enough to go against Song Yang.
The pre-war arrangements were carried out in an orderly manner. Song Yang finished arranging the things to be prepared for now, and he and everyone in the meeting started immediately.
It's time to prepare materials, it's time to mobilize troops, and it's time to mobilize troops.
Jiangzhou's war machine is running again.
…
Tanzhou.
The Liu siblings are indeed planning to take action.
We planned to divide the land at the end of last year, but the land survey became increasingly confusing.
Moreover, the generals under their command are occupying more and more land.
Liu Jinpeng originally planned to do a good job in the spring plowing work this year, but it turned out that there were insufficient farm tools, lack of cattle, and insufficient manpower. In addition, the enthusiasm of the people was extremely low.
All in all, it's a mess, with only 10,000 to 20,000 acres of intensively cultivated land.
All other cultivated land relies on spreading.
How could the common people, who had not been allocated land or had enough to eat, be in the mood to farm for them.
Besides, even if you want to give them important land, you won’t have the strength if you don’t have enough to eat, right?
Since the Liu brothers and sisters came to power, the people have always been hungry and full.
Especially after the Chinese New Year, our dietary conditions have simply gotten worse and worse.
Public dissatisfaction has now boiled over.
This is also the main reason that forced the Liu brothers and sisters to take action.
It's just that they are not targeting an external enemy.
Instead, we should target some internal generals who support their troops and rely on themselves.
The internal instability within the bandit group became increasingly unstable, forcing Liu Jinpeng to make major changes.
At the end of May, Liu Jinpeng's newly trained 5,000 troops were finally formed.
This is the new army created by Liu Jinpeng again after being eliminated by Song Mao last time.
After several months of training, the new army was barely able to use it.
With these new troops, coupled with his own original strength, he can almost eliminate internal instability factors.
Song Mao received the news that the Liu brothers and sisters began to mobilize on a large scale.
The two kings of Hengzhou and Shaozhou also saw that many of the troops stationed at the border had changed. They were afraid that they would be attacked, so they clamored for the thieves.
But in fact, these teams are all transferred to Changsha.
After sending the message to Jiangzhou, Song Mao sent people to sneak into Tanzhou to check the specific situation.
The people of Tanzhou don't have a good impression of thieves.
Except for a few cities occupied by bandit groups, the forces of bandits in rural areas cannot penetrate at all.
Song Mao quickly found out where the bandits were going, and they turned out to be heading towards Changsha.
Song Mao, who was temporarily confused about the situation, could only send people to investigate while sending another message to Jiangzhou.
While Song Mao's second message was still on the way, an armed conflict broke out in Changsha City.
Liu Jinpeng used the excuse of his own birthday to invite all the rebel generals who were disobedient to Changsha City.
Then an ultimatum was given to them, asking them to immediately seize the food from the land they had usurped.
Each of these generals was a thorn in their side, and some of them immediately fell out with Liu Jinpeng.
Taking advantage of their large numbers, they felt that the law would not punish the masses, so there were more than twenty generals who gathered to cause trouble.
Covering almost all levels of thieves, soldiers and generals.
Among them, there are four high-ranking generals.
"Don't you want to win the support of the people by doing this?"
"What do the people think of us now! Don't you know at all!"
Liu Jinpeng blushed and yelled, his neck flushing.
"I have a knife in my hand! If anyone dares to jump, I will chop them!"
"That's right! Anyone who dares to cause trouble will be killed!"
"Brothers of the Liu family! What do you care about those hardships? Don't you think our brothers can enjoy the enjoyment after working so hard to win Tanzhou?"
Several levels made the general stare at Liu Jinpeng and shout.
"Hmph! There is no foresight at all! Now that the government and the army have formed an alliance, we may attack at any time! Without the support of the people, we won't be able to find anyone to capture the strong men! Are you going to fight back the officials?
Army?"
Liu Jinpeng still wanted to make a last-ditch effort. Although these people were disobedient to discipline, they still had some fighting strength. If they were all except his own strength, it would be a big loss.
"Fart! These thousands of people under my command are not afraid of the army! It's not like we have never fought with the army before. How dare they attack us with their little strength!"
"When the autumn crops are harvested this year, we still have to fight them!"
The thieves were noisy, but they all had the same idea and were unwilling to hand over the benefits they had already taken.
"You really don't want to hand over the ground?"
"Don't hand it over! We took it based on our ability, why should we hand it over to those Kuhaha!"
"Hmph! Then don't blame me, Liu Jinpeng, for not talking about brotherhood!" Liu Jinpeng snorted coldly and threw the thing in his hand to the ground.
"Crack!" He shouted by throwing the cup.
With the sound of shattering, the swordsman ambushing outside the tent rushed in directly.
"Liu Jinpeng! How dare you!" How could the thieves be captured without restraint?
Those who hold swords take swords, and those who hold swords take swords.
The two sides fought together.
Of course, Liu Jinpeng had already made preparations. These dozens of thieves were no match for the ambush.
They were quickly beheaded.
Several of them shouted to hand over the ground, but Liu Jinpeng ignored them at all.
