Shen Bing's enclosure plan was implemented after the Qin Army had changed into crossbow arrows and conducted necessary training.

In fact, the Qin Army did not need much training to change into the new crossbow arrows.

The crossbowmen are still crossbowmen, but they changed from sitting on the ground and opening the crossbow to standing.

Archers are still archers, but the arrow has changed from bronze to iron with stronger penetrating power and lethality.

Other things such as organization and tactics remain unchanged.

If there is any change, it is the addition of a three-bow bed crossbow for every 100 people.

The three-bow bed crossbow belongs to the strengthening equipment and does not occupy the army establishment.

This is because the three-bow bed crossbow does not require professionally trained soldiers to operate... Soldiers are trained in combat, horseback riding, etc., and the operation of the bed crossbow actually only requires the force to turn the winch.

It is obviously a waste of troops to operate soldiers who can fight or even ride horses.

On the other hand, because each bed crossbow requires twenty people to control.

Ten of them directly operate the bed crossbow: eight are responsible for turning the winch, two are for installing the crossbow, and the other ten are responsible for logistics and replacement... Logistics refers to pushing a full iron arrow cart, and the replacement can be made up in time in case of casualties. .

Twenty people control, if the original organization is occupied and equipped with one for every 100 people, it will disrupt the original organization and tactics, which may cause a series of chaos.

For example, in the original establishment, Zhongtun Chief commanded 50 people, and Hundred Generals commanded 100 people.

Occupying the establishment will make the original 100-man troop become 80, and the general is used to estimate the combat power of the original 100 when commanding operations.

The advantage of the additional organization is that the original mechanism and combat power remain unchanged, so the tactics and habits do not need to be changed. The three-bow bed crossbow is just the extra combat power.

The manpower problem is not difficult to solve.

Shen Bing, a team of more than 10,000 people, only needs to be equipped with a hundred bed crossbows, which means an additional 2,000 people are needed.

Some of these two thousand people come from craftsmen... At least one craftsman must be assigned to each crossbow. This craftsman is responsible for the use and command of the crossbow, and can also repair it if necessary.

Most of the crossbowmen are taken care of by labor transferred from the Central Plains.

The most indispensable thing for the Qin army was labor. The Kingdom of Zhao, Wei and Chu were destroyed, and even the Kingdom of Yan was beaten to the north of Jicheng.

The Qin Army directly used these soldiers to be uneasy, and more often they converted to labor.

Shen Bing went to Yunzhong County to open up a new city to resist the Huns. It was inevitable to build fortifications and fortresses, and it was not excessive to require thousands of labor.

However, I don't know whether Li Si and Zhao Gao deliberately sent it to the nearest place. The five thousand labors Shen Bing received all came from Zhao.

As we all know, Zhao’s resentment towards Qin is extremely deep, so his labor is extremely difficult to control, either by sneaking away or undermining tools or even rebelling...especially at this time, the state of Zhao is strictly speaking, the generation established by Zhao Wangjia The country is still there, so the Zhao people who rebel and make trouble are particularly fierce.

If these labors were only used for farming, building villages, and building roads, it would be nothing. They should be guarded more closely and the damage to tools would be small.

But if they were incorporated into the army to control the bed crossbow, it would be different. If one is not good enough to rebel in battle, it will cause big problems.

Shen Bing's solution to this problem was to let Wang Bai and Lei Hui do their ideological work.

Before that, Shen Bing first brainwashed Wang Bai and Lei Hui:

"If I were to fight in various countries in the Central Plains, Shen Bing would definitely not let the labor force go into battle to kill the enemy."

"But this trip to Yunzhong County is fighting against the Huns."

"Everyone knows the evil of the Xiongnu. If I lose Yunzhong County, I will let the Xiongnu go south and enter Yanmen and even Taiyuan. It is the original Zhao people who looted."

"So I have to ask both of you to communicate more with the labor."

"At present, we must put down our hatred and defend against foreign enemies together."

"Shen Bing must believe, use and treat Qin people!"

There is nothing wrong with this, but it is actually a common trick in modern countries: using external contradictions to transfer internal contradictions.

This trick works well.

In particular, the people of Zhao have suffered greatly from the Huns for hundreds of years, and Wang Bai and Lei Hui are among them.

To the Zhao people, although the Qin army is hateful, it is still the same root, but the Xiongnu are barbarians and beasts... No matter how resentment the Qin army can help the Xiongnu enter the customs and kill the people of the Central Plains.

What's more, Shen Bing also promised to treat the former Zhao Guo's labor service with the treatment of Qin, so there is nothing to say.

So Wang Bai and Lei Hui did not hesitate at all, and immediately responded:

"Don't worry, general, I'll wait for my self-restraint to obey the general's orders!"

The two of them did not humiliate their mission, and they were so bitter in the face of enslavement, that they temporarily let go of the hatred in these enslavements.

Of course, this is only "temporary."

As the saying goes, "frozen three feet is not a day's cold." Zhao Qin's hatred is accumulated over decades and passed through several generations until now, not just let go.

The people of Qin were also especially guarded against the people of Zhao. Compared with the labor of Wei, Yan, Han, Chu and other countries, they were particularly harsh on the people of Zhao.

So a vicious circle is formed.

But the most taboo thing about hating this thing is that you can't let it go at first.

If there is a beginning and a group effect is formed, for example, the bed crossbowmen formed by the Zhao people obeyed orders and won the approval of the Qin people for their bravery and good fighting, and then changed their attitude towards them... and then entered a virtuous circle.

After a long time, the hatred of the past is naturally forgotten. Sometimes when I think about it, it is not a big deal.

Even they will subjectively seek excuses for Qin Jun:

How can there be undead on the battlefield?Qin Jun killed my family members, why didn't Zhao Jun kill Qin Jun's family?

Changping pit kills hundreds of thousands of Zhao Jun?

If the Zhao people captured hundreds of thousands of Qin army... they would be killed by the same circumstances or by pits!

So this hatred was slowly resolved.

Shen Bing's approach once again made Fu Su admire him.

Because if Fusu were to do this thing, it would undoubtedly be treated with "benevolence and virtue", and then after a long period of probation, what happened...

This may be successful, but it takes a long time to pay a considerable price.

But Shen Bing only took advantage of the contradictions of the foreign races and then gave a little bit of grace to do it in a short time.

The so-called grace is to treat Qin people.

The so-called prestige is also restricted by the Qin law.

This is the Confucian style. In detail, there are also some. For example, no one in Qin at this time dared to treat Zhao people as Qin people, especially even enlisting them into the army.

But at the same time it is also useful to legalists, such as using the law to restrict it.

For a while, Fusu was a little confused. Is it Legalist or Confucian?

Or is it Shen Bing's own creation of the best of each family?

But what is certain is that Shen Bing's set is indeed useful.

Because the newly formed bed crossbowmen even worked harder than the Qin army.

Subsequent actual combat has once again proved Zhao's military quality.
