Villager of Daming

Chapter 1184: The Great Banner Supports the Command

"Understood!" As soon as Ling'er's voice fell, the young men of Xiaqiu Village responded in unison.

"Zhao Ze, listen to my orders, follow me to the outer defense."

"Guan Xiaohu, lead the team to be in charge of Zhengxi, follow me."

"The hot air balloon continues to rise, and all flag signalmen are in place."

"Li Hanchen, two circles in a long snake shape."

"Song Luo, Liu Changyuan, Zheng Li, Liu Shitou, assemble the four hundred-man sniper teams! Wait for assignment!"

"Wang Long, find the distance and position for me, calibrate the mortar gunners, where is Zhang Cong? Lay the mines and pull the wires..."

As the young men shouted, the guards of the four palaces began to move quickly, with large and small teams looking for their positions according to the orders.

Some people began to set up the scaffolding, and the craftsmen worked hard to fix it. More flags were flying and a large banner was erected, indicating the position of the central army.

The hot air balloons were being blown up with blowtorches, ready to take off. They were fixed with three ropes below. They were not only responsible for transmitting messages, but also had gunmen on top.

Zhu Wentian put down his heavy machine gun and quickly assembled another heavy machine gun part that someone else had brought over.

After assembling it, point it at a deserted place, adjust the rear sight, observe a tree through the telescope, pull the trigger, hear a few bangs, look through the telescope, adjust the gun, and continue to fire bangs. Do this twice and you'll be good to go.

The others cooperated and prepared replacement barrels and thick gloves for removing barrels, and brought more ammunition boxes.

This is Zhu Wentian’s weapon, two heavy machine guns. When the barrel of one machine gun breaks down, he switches to the other one and replaces the barrel.

Xu Da did not give any orders, but his generals knew what to do. At this moment, he looked confused as he watched the people from Xiaqiu Village being given orders.

After the prince's team met him in Beiping Prefecture, he was always in charge of logistics, and then went to a location to give instructions on economic construction matters.

Xu Da admitted that the logistical arrangements at Xiaqiu Village were perfect, and that the logistics officers in his army could not be so meticulous anyway.

The key is that the team from Xiaqiu Village always has good things, which is a technical advantage. The craftsmen of their team can build something on site at any time according to the drawings provided by Xiaqiu Village.

Xu Da acknowledged these and realized that he was not good enough and could not compare with Xiaqiu Village. When he fought against the Northern Yuan Dynasty, it was Xiaqiu Village who instigated His Majesty. No, he acted according to His Majesty's wishes.

The logistics of his own team are simply endless, just like the current team. No matter where the team goes, the weapons and ammunition made in Yingtianfu will follow.

Every time the quantity seems small, but I can’t resist the continuous delivery!

Especially when we arrived at Dingliaoduwei, there is a river. We can go directly from the sea route to the inland river. There are ships every day, and even yesterday there was a team that caught up with us to deliver things.

If we were fighting with other people at that time and had such continuous logistical support, we would have cried with happiness, just like the time when we fought in Helin, when the soldiers had no worries.

It’s just that the Ming Dynasty is richer now, and is more willing to invest, sending more things faster. According to Xiaqiu Village, this is called tactical logistics of adding fuel to the fire.

"They are all right, and we agree with them. We have no choice. All the soldiers who participated in the war against the Northern Yuan owe Xiaqiu Village a favor. We accept it. But..."

Xu Da was confused and thought that Xiaqiu Village was the most trusted logistics village.

But what is going on now? Why are the people of Xiaqiu Village directly commanding the guards of the four palaces?

They can also call out the names of the centurions of the centuries and understand the situation of the captains of special teams.

When did the people of Xiaqiu Village learn this? We can't even remember the situation of the centurion, you...

"Zhao Yao, come here, it's none of your business." Xu Da sobered up and shouted to Zhao Yao, who was there temporarily explaining things to the generals. Although Zhao Yao was a political officer, he had followed Xu Da to fight in the war before.

This situation occurred during the period of Zhu Wentian, when the marshals and generals directly became local administrative heads.

Facts have proved that those who can organize large-scale battles are not only good at fighting but also good at administration.

"You guys make your own arrangements!" Zhao Yao threw down a sentence and ran over: "General!"

"Look at Xiaqiu Village. There are eight thousand guards from four royal palaces. Their people can actually find small flags at their best. They can call out the names of the people with special small flags."

Xu Da told his subordinate that for daily logistics, the people of Xiaqiao Village should directly find administrative officials from the four royal palaces to make arrangements.

Either he is the leader of the palace maids or eunuchs, and the one doing the work is naturally a craftsman, and usually only Wang Yiqian is found.

How did he change? He was supposed to be a swimming athlete competing for a gold medal, but now he is running a marathon? And he is even in the first echelon with ease?
Zhao Yao: “…”

He had already discovered the situation, but he still had to make some arrangements and was not paying attention to this matter.

He was suddenly called by the general, and after listening and thinking about it, he was still confused.

"General, the guards of Xiaqiu Village and the palace are usually quite familiar with each other... right?" Zhao Yao was not sure in the end.

"Can you call out the name of each of your centurions? Do you know which flag is the best at shooting?"

Xu Da asked directly, others can get familiar with 8,000 people, at least they know all the powerful ones among the small flags, don’t you?
Zhao Yao shook his head: "I can't remember, there were many deaths in the war, and then there were promotions and transfers.

Uh... General, I remember when they were in Yingtian Prefecture, they always took time to go to the military camp to learn, and it just so happened that they were doing resistance exercises, deploying troops, and so on."

Zhao Yao remembered something: the people in Xiaqiu Village liked to stroll around the military camp in the west.

"What do you mean by coincidence? It's because they are going there, and His Majesty has specially arranged it for them.

Your Majesty found that the master seemed unfamiliar with this aspect, and Xiaqiu Village wanted to go and see it, and guaranteed to give the best observation.

You see, after watching it, they have become so proficient today that the young man could call out the names of the twenty small flags, one small flag, one mortar and two grenade launchers.

This shows that they usually try to remember, understand, and know it, and how deeply it is hidden! "

Xu Da corrected his subordinates' wrong remarks. It didn't happen that they happened to catch up with the exercise. They could go to Xiaqiu Village anytime they wanted to and conduct the exercise.

Zhao Yao looked at the young man who arranged the twenty small flags and said, "Zhu Lucheng, Xiao Cheng, the eggplant strips he makes are the best. He stir-fries a large pot with a lot of minced garlic. The key is that the sauce is just right. It tastes best when eaten with rice!"

Zhao Yao knew that these were the only people in Xiaqiu Village, but he couldn't remember their names, which proved that he was not qualified.

What impressed him most about the boy who was now arranging twenty mortar flags was the pickled eggplant strips with a lot of minced garlic.

Xu Da: "..."

The team from Xiaqiu Village over there didn't care what others thought. They understood what responsibilities they had before they came out.

There were people who were familiar with every key position along the way, and some were even talented snipers, whom they could call out individually by name.

Now is the time to use it. Everyone should give full play to their abilities. We must not bring shame to Xiaqiu Village and we must not let Brother Hanhan’s efforts go to waste.

If these people fail to command well and something goes wrong, Hanhan will be exposed, and Brother Hanhan must step up and command personally.

At that time, he was no longer a firing point, but the center of the banner!
