Chapter 241: Copying is easier than starting a business, routine development
"In just one day, this coastal fortress town on Lingshan Island has been completely transformed."
"Liang Liping and Wei Ying both have very good management capabilities."
Li Dingguo returned to Lingshan City from the big pier. Looking at the orderly and vibrant fortress city, he nodded with satisfaction and praised it inwardly.
Now, in this bay city which is no smaller than Dingbian City, there is no other warrior except Li Dingguo.
Under the powerful military deterrence of Li Dingguo and the Great Golden Eagle, even a very small number of people with ulterior motives did not dare to act presumptuously and did not dare to jump out to cause trouble.
After the great battle last night, the pirate forces entrenched on Lingshan Island have been wiped out.
Even the ferocious Tartars and white Hu people were forced to jump into the sea and escape after Li Dingguo and the Great Golden Eagle killed nearly half of their soldiers.
Thousands of warriors from the three enemy parties have disappeared. How could ordinary people like them have the courage to jump out and cause trouble?
The new regulations announced by Li Dingguo detailed that after joining the Fuxing Army, they would receive unprecedented benefits, which was too tempting for these ordinary people.
The hundreds of thousands of refugees in this coastal fortress town have never seen a force like the Restoration Army that is so generous and magnanimous, yet does not harm ordinary people.
In this chaotic world where natural disasters and man-made calamities are becoming more and more serious, there is no better place for these refugees to go than to join the Restoration Army.
After a day and a night of vigorous rectification, the tremendous changes that took place in Lingshan City had a great shock to the people inside and outside the city.
The unprecedented welfare benefits, coupled with Li Dingguo's style of doing things, are the fundamental reasons why hundreds of thousands of refugees here have completely returned and enthusiastically joined the new force of the Fuxing Army.
After a while, Li Dingguo returned to the city lord's mansion.
This huge building complex, which has become the military headquarters of Lingshan Island, is filled with busy people.
"Great Commander!"
When Liang Liping saw Li Dingguo entering the meeting hall, she hurried over to report, "According to the plan you made overnight, I have ordered people to officially promulgate the details of forming a new army."
"There are more than 186,800 people in Lingshan City today."
"Among them, there are less than 50,000 elderly, women and children, and more than 100,000 young and strong people aged 18 to 30."
"You are focusing on about 30,000 boys and girls under 18 and over 8."
"The detailed data is being further registered and counted. It will be completed in three days at most."
Liang Liping is articulate and speaks clearly and logically. She is a genius comparable to Hongmei and has an excellent talent for logistical management.
Although Wei Ying's performance is slightly worse than Liang Liping's, she is very calm, bold and careful, and does things calmly. She is also a rare talent.
Whether the two of them are capable of important tasks will have to wait a few days until their cultivation aptitude and talent, and their performance in the warrior training and selection results come out, before a final determination can be made.
In this big world, if you can't become a warrior, your future potential will be limited.
A warrior's mental power is much higher than that of an ordinary person, and the higher the level of cultivation, the greater the gap.
No matter how smart an ordinary person is, he cannot compare to a Qi Refining Realm practitioner because of the huge gap in mental power between them and a Qi Refining Realm master.
"Great Commander, we have already formed a craftsman camp with about 11,000 craftsmen of various types, which is a very high ratio."
"This is because there are many craftsmen in Jiaozhou."
"There are nearly a thousand shipbuilders, including more than twenty experienced master craftsmen!"
"These great craftsmen have even participated in the construction of many treasure ships, but because they are not warriors and do not understand formations, they did not become master craftsmen."
"But when it comes to shipbuilding skills, they are no less skilled than those craftsmen."
Liang Liping was a little excited when she said this, and then she reported, "We now have a lot of money and materials, even if we don't do any production in a year or two, we won't be able to spend them all!"
"Besides, you, the commander-in-chief, have already made a plan. After the selection of all military and civilian warriors is completed, all the people who are unable to stimulate their qi and blood power and cannot become warriors will start large-scale farming and breeding."
"Once your first round of plans are implemented, the harvest of various crops we produce each year will be more than enough for us to be self-sufficient."
"The military camp located near the central square outside the City Lord's Mansion is being renovated and expanded by a large number of craftsmen from the Artisan Camp."
"In half a month at most, a giant military camp that can accommodate 50,000 soldiers will be completely built."
"I think by that time, the results of our round of selection will have come out, and all the soldiers can move in and start the work of forming regular combat battalions."
"In a month at most, our new force will be on the right track and begin to move forward steadily."
She then talked about another important matter. "In the plan you made, Commander-in-Chief, the most important work of establishing a navy may take a month to officially start." Liang Liping grew up by the sea, so she knew very well what the focus of future development would be now that she had her own power with dozens of large treasure ships.
There is no doubt that we need to build a strong navy.
This is due to the fact that the Restoration Army is currently located on a large island in the sea.
Without a sufficiently strong navy, the future of the Restoration Army would be trapped on this large island, with no real development or growth to speak of.
Even though Liang Liping has not yet become a warrior, she is very envious of the large number of treasure ships docked at the big pier.
Apart from anything else, once those treasure ships are able to display their combat effectiveness, it is estimated that the Restoration Army will immediately become a new major force at sea!
Even the Ming Dynasty, which is in decline, does not have such a huge fleet.
From any perspective, the top priority is to establish a regular navy as soon as possible.
"Not bad!"
Li Dingguo nodded in satisfaction and said, "You and Wei Ying are both very capable and have done a great job in various tasks."
"If we want our Renaissance Army to develop rapidly, the most important factor is to have enough people and talents!"
"Without enough combat soldiers, these plans are just castles in the air and there is no way to talk about them at all."
"From today until the next month, all focus will be on this Warrior and Soldier Selection."
"Even if our plan is comprehensive, it will be empty talk if we don't have enough combat soldiers to support it."
He told Liang Liping, "You and Wei Ying should also complete the introductory training of warriors as soon as possible and strive to stimulate the power of qi and blood as quickly as possible to become a warrior."
"The physical and mental strength of warriors are much stronger than that of ordinary people. Their learning and working abilities are totally incomparable to those of ordinary people."
"Only after becoming warriors, you managers will have enough energy to handle various matters and not be exhausted by various complicated tasks."
"When you two become warriors, you will deeply understand this."
"At that time, all kinds of work that seem extremely difficult now, including the construction of the craftsman camp, after becoming a warrior, the work efficiency is not just doubled!"
He emphasized to Liang Liping the importance of this round of warrior selection.
With rich experience in successfully building an army, these problems seemed very simple to Li Dingguo.
It was not difficult for Li Dingguo to quickly create a new Fuxing Army. He just had to follow the plan he had made and complete it step by step.
"Pick out a group of well-trained troops to take turns guarding the big dock and prevent anyone from approaching those treasure ships. Violators will be killed without mercy!"
He gave instructions on what needed to be done today, continued to discuss with Liang Liping and Wei Ying for a while, and then left the City Lord's Mansion.
He quickly left Lingshan City, returned to the big pier, and boarded the top-quality treasure ship brought by the Later Jin Tartar navy.
Li Dingguo knew very well that the final results of this soldier selection and the subsequent warrior training would ultimately depend on himself.
The training resources for these soldiers now have to be provided by themselves.
If you want to make full use of the large amount of spiritual herbs, spiritual roots and other cultivation resources obtained this time, refining them into a large number of low-level spiritual pills is undoubtedly the best choice and solution.
The training of warriors and soldiers, including this round of selection of all military and civilians, would be a joke and totally unrealistic if there were not enough training resources to support it.
Sufficient resources for cultivation are the fundamental factors that restrict the rapid development and growth of various forces.
In today's world, any major force that wants to grow and develop cannot do without sufficient cultivation resources.
Li Dingguo planned to spend a day and a night in seclusion on this top-quality treasure ship.
The purpose of this retreat is to use the Human Emperor Cauldron, whose alchemy and refining capabilities have increased several times after he broke through to the fifth level of martial arts, to batch refine various elixirs needed to complete his first round of plans.
Li Dingguo possesses an innate divine weapon that is most suitable for alchemy and refining. Combined with his current fifth-level martial arts cultivation, he is able to complete this large-scale alchemy task.
On this great treasure ship, after being busy for half an hour, Li Dingguo, who had completed the preparations for batch alchemy, sat cross-legged on the deck of a huge cabin.
He first meditated and practiced for a while to restore himself to his peak condition, then summoned his natal artifact, the Human Emperor Cauldron, and began a round of large-scale alchemy work.
