Gong Baihu looked at the groups of peasants gathered outside the city gate, all of them holding farm tools in their hands. These people are not as obedient as soldiers. They had to say to Chen Xin: "Lord Chen, Lord Judge, in this way, we can help you water and protect the land in the next few days." I just ask you to get this thing done. ”

"It's okay, but you said it yourself. I didn't force you. ”

Gong Pingkang looked at the smiling Chen Xin coldly, and almost shouted, "Yes." ”

In Chen Xin's office, Wu Chang, the former veteran captain, was sitting in the room. Liu Min also sat next to Chen Xin. After hearing that Ma Zidun had been smashed, he worried for several days, for fear of being blamed by the people in the detention center. As a result, Yang Yunnong and Zeng Qianhu did not show up. Ma Qidong's people are honest and send people to water every day.

Chen Xin asked them to sit down and observe for a while. After training with the recruits every day, they all look more ferocious. Over time, they naturally show a sense of self-confidence.

Chen Xin smiled and said to everyone: "We cleaned up Ma Zidan and played well." If there are other docks that dare to cause trouble in the future, we will deal with it accordingly. ”

Lu Chuanzong said with a smile: "Master, the wife of that family moved to live by the canal at night, and she stayed there for fear that someone would steal the water." ”

Several other people also laughed, and Chen Xin said, "It's still professional." There is no need to say more about these things. Let's talk about the new institutions. ”

As soon as they heard the news of the new organization, everyone cheered and listened carefully.

Chen Xinxian asked Dai Zhenggang: "Is the basic training for recruits over?"

Dai Zheng immediately stood up, cleared his throat, and reported: "In February, most of the recruits were fishermen and mountain people from Wendeng and Ninghai Prefectures, and there were a few qualified refugees from other places. In the first month, the basic training is not over, the individual skills have already started for 10 days, and the team training has not yet begun. These recruits are poorly trained, and they are more comfortable than the previous trackers. ”

Chen Xin waved him to sit down. "We only had 260 recruits and made up 20 teams. Each team has 10 gunkillers. At the bottom is still Wu. The commander is free to designate a suitable soldier. He doesn't have to be a swordsman or a shield-bearer. There are also 12 people in each team. The original squadron was changed to one flag, each with 3 teams and 36 people. The total number of people is one person. The total number of people is 307. The One Flag Gun Team and One Flag Killer Team are a game with a hundred general managers and three miscellaneous soldiers in each set. There are 78 people per game. It consists of three bureaus, collectively known as the First Division. I was the general manager of the first and second games, and the hundred general managers of the third game...

The original five captains looked at Chen Xin and became nervous. There is only one game left in three rounds. They all come from the same starting point. Everyone wants this position.

It is impossible to elect an official at this level. Chen Xin directly appointed him: "Wang Changfu was appointed, and his monthly salary is four taels. ”

Wang Changfu was overjoyed. He stood up and sat down again. On the surface, he pretended to be calm. He took a deep breath and glanced at Zhu Dachun next to him. At the last summary meeting, Wang Changfu raised the issue of bonuses in the front row and back row. Later, Zhu Daichunti's concept of battle was more pertinent, and Chen Xin praised him for his diligent thinking. However, the idea that the spear should not be too fierce was criticized, and Wang Changfu strongly criticized him for considering the use of individual soldier techniques for team combat. Wang Changfu insisted that the main attack of the spear was to stab with the Yang family's method. He can't weaken the offense in order to stay. As a result, this point did not pass. The requirement of the pikemen remained to stab bravely. Later, although Zhu Dachun was still the deputy training officer of the killer team, after fierce competition between the two, Wang Changfu is now on the right track, and he and Zhu Dachun's deputy training officer are the same.

Chen Xin looked at the expressions of others, and most people were disappointed. He arranged for Wang Changfu to be the new Baizong, because Wang Changfu was from Zhangjiawan, Lu Chuanzong and Dai Zhenggang were from Yanggu, and Liu Min's deputy Xu Yuanzheng also had it. It is necessary to weigh that the other former squad leaders have been promoted this time, at least they have arranged for general managers of Qi, and most of them are new teams. His new organization basically refers to the Qi Army in the north. In the Northern Qi Military Department, the military department was composed of the overseers, the overseers, and the overseers. The bureau of the Qi army was single-handed, with three banners and 108 people, all of whom were murderers or all firearms. Chen Xin organized a mixed squad to facilitate the suppression of bandits. Each round has two flag teams, three killer teams and three firearms teams, and the output of each round can be tripled.

Chen Xin continued: "There are 240 people in the team. Zhu Guobin concurrently served as deputy general manager, leaving 20 horseback riders as state guests as cavalrymen. Mr. Liu is going to buy a horse. After buying it, Guo Bin is about to start training. ”

Dai Zhenggang said: "I'm afraid there aren't so many horses. ”

Zhu Guobin is afraid of no one. He jumped out and said, "It's okay to ride a mule!"

Lu Chuanzong said: "My lord, we are not ready to increase our troops. And just like that, we all ran out. ”

Chen Xinguang said: "Continue to recruit people, we must have soldiers." ”

Zhu Guobin happily asked Chen Xin: "My lord, how many more people can be recruited?"

"I don't know. Maybe a few hundred. Chen Xin replied simply and said to Liu Min: "Brother Liu, can we get all the weapons as soon as possible?"

Liu Min flipped through the pamphlet and said, "There is no problem with this batch of knives and guns. It's just that the bird's cannon is not good. There are now 20 craftsmen who specialize in your barrel, about 20 pieces per month. So far this year, 50 bird spears have been supplied, and the rest will be replenished in two or three months. If there were a few hundred more, there would only be more craftsmen. ”

"The skillful craftsman's move is that Tang Zuoxiang finds a few craftsmen and comes back with the next batch of goods, and then he will help you drill the barrel. ”

Liu Min touched the bag on his forehead, glanced at Chen Xin and said, "You don't need an old craftsman to drill the barrel." I have arranged more than 20 new people. They only drill the barrel. A few days of training is enough. ”

Chen Xin praised: "Semi-assembly line, Brother Liu is very powerful." You don't need to wait for someone else to make 200 rifles first. ”

After saying that, he said to the gun instructor, "Now the gun team takes turns training with the artillery," turning to look at the officers in the room, "You take these new soldiers and start suppressing the bandits in May." In April of the first year of Chongzhen, various transactions and compromises still revolved around the counter. All kinds of immortals have brought money into Beijing. Especially during the apocalypse, a group of beaten people competed for the wealth left behind by the eunuchs. Chen Xin and Song Wenxian took over the second batch of goods, and Tang Zuoxiang brought more than 20 Tianjin military workers and craftsmen. With Tang Zuoxiang's example, more people are willing to come.

After the goods were shipped away, Chen Xin was not in a hurry to go to sea. Until mid-April, Sun Guozhen sent someone to urge him to leave. Before leaving, he personally paid the recruits a monthly salary, re-established his prestige, talked with the prominent soldiers among the recruits, and appointed a group of Wuchang people.

Chen Xin did not arrange civil affairs, but he still had to worry about the workshop. Just a day later, Tang Zuoxiang was recruited into the office of the workshop.

Chen Xin, Liu Minyou, Tang Zuoxiang, and Shi Pingli, the former firearms captain, were surrounded by a square table, and their heads were about to gather together, looking at the characters in a book on the table.

Tang Zuoxiang was illiterate. Chen Xin read the words on the picture to him. Tang Zuo looked at it for a long time and said, "Master, this combined machine gun has one more Yin machine than the bird's cannon." After pulling the hook, the two machines move together. The picture shows the yang angry and the yin opening the door. It is the Yang machine control head (the name of the snake rod in the Ming Dynasty). The yin machine opens the fire door, so you can save the fire door Shi Pingli is also waiting. He is now the general manager of the Guns. Hearing this, he said: "The wind is very strong in the north, and we are often blown away by the wind when we train. This firearm has a short opening time and is not easily caught by wind and rain. ”

Chen Xin nodded in agreement. He specifically called the captain of the firearms team and asked them to think about it from the point of view of use. The powder of the blunt-headed bird for birds is different from the granular powder. Now it's in powder form. Therefore, it cannot be put in a bamboo tube with propellant. It can be easily blown away by the wind. He asked Tang Zuoxiang: "If you want to make a tack for a combined machine tool, how many changes are there in the shape of the parts used now, and what are the difficulties?"

"The gun bed needs to be replaced, the iron rod needs to be folded back to be replaced, and a cathode machine needs to be added. I didn't think about it at the time

Liu Min couldn't tell. After all, he is the leader of the workshop, so he should raise the difficulties first, lest Chen Xin come and blame Tang Zuoxiang. "The difficulty should be the shape of the connection between the yin and yang machine and the joint. When opening the door cover, the faucet should be lowered. If the fire door cover is opened in advance, the medication may be blown away by the wind and the fire rope will be blocked later. This is determined by the shape and fixed position, which requires repeated trial production, and the error must be controlled in the production process. Mr. Tang, you'd better adjust the shape with wood chips first, so that it is easier to prune. After the sample was made, I had to take a look at it first and then calculate the cost. ”

"See if it's suitable for mass production," Chen added

Tang made a connection to help, he couldn't write it, Liu Min had already helped write a book of records.

In fact, this machine gun is just another negative machine. After the plate hook is buckled, the yin and yang machine is connected, and the process of opening the fire door is reduced. However, on the battlefield, one step can be saved to reduce the likelihood of one step going wrong, and a second can save more lives. Chen Xin thought for a while and said to Tang: "After that, we all made an ignition mechanism according to this artifact spectrum and machine gun. Also, is this barrel the same as our original shotgun?"

"Mr. Xu, it's about the same. The length of the large barrel in this photo is 3 feet 3 inches (1 meter), which is not much different from our original one. It's just that the gun bed is a bit long. ”

Shi Pingli also knew something, and said to Chen Xin: "My lord, the bed with a gun is five feet long. The wicked suggested that our new shotguns be a little longer and keep the fire doors a little farther away from their faces, in case the soldiers were afraid of smoke and fire. And the steel knife at the head of the bed of the Rumi blunt-headed dog can be used as a chopper

The fireworks set off in front of them can really have a psychological effect on the soldiers. A lot of people shoot with their eyes closed. Chen Xin turned around and asked Tang Zuoxiang, "Mr. Tang, can you make it a little longer?"
