Chapter 128: Red Faces and Red Ears
Du Xing also looked at Fan Yu and gestured to Fan Yu to say something.
In the army, even if the Song army is weaker, there are still some rules between the army. As a Shangguan, you always have to say something, so that you can gather the thoughts of the people below. This situation has been a common situation in all dynasties, and there are no exceptions. If you really can't say any bullshit, it's good to shout about being promoted.
Fan Yu was not stage frightened, and took two steps forward before he stopped and said, "In the army, discipline is the most important. Although it is for you to try out weapons in the Arsenal, there must be military discipline and prohibition. Don't think that trying out weapons is useless to you, only by going into battle to kill the enemy can you have merit. ”
Yang Wenguang raised his eyebrows, this small action didn't escape Fan Yu's eyes, but he didn't say anything.
"As far as I know, the imperial court has always rewarded those who sacrifice weapons. If the new weapon is successfully introduced, then everyone has a credit. Fan Yu continued: "So, I'm here to remind you not to have other messy thoughts. Since you want to go to the armory with me, don't be reluctant. If anyone doesn't want to go, say it now, and I'll replace them immediately. ”
Di Qing was motionless, his body was tall and unresponsive. Fan Yu's eyes glanced at Yang Wenguang, but he saw that Yang Wenguang showed a struggling expression, obviously very entangled.
Yang Wenguang saw that everyone else didn't react, his face stretched, and his body no longer shook in the slightest.
Fan Yu waited for a moment before he nodded and said, "Since no one has withdrawn at this time, if you want to withdraw again, you will have to be dealt with by military law." The weapons that you will try this time will be the latest style. The reason why I let you try it out is to evaluate the merits of this kind of weapon and whether it is suitable for use in the battle array. Although you did not personally go into the battle array, the weapons you tried were to ensure that our officers and soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty would kill the enemy and save their lives on the battle array. Therefore, what you are doing will definitely affect the lives of thousands of officers and soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty. ”
"When these words have been said, you may disperse, and wait outside the door of the West Workshop tomorrow morning. When the time comes, I'll take you in. Fan Yu commanded lightly at the end.
The next day, when Fan Yu came to the outside of the West Workshop, Di Qing and Yang Wenguang were already waiting with the rest of the people.
It's just that the person who is standing at the forefront today and is training the whole team is Yang Wenguang, while Di Qing is in the cavalry queue.
When Fan Yu came to the front of the fifty forbidden soldiers, Yang Wenguang immediately hugged his fists to Fan Yu and saluted: "Your Majesty, Yang Wenguang, has already arrived with all the soldiers. ”
Fan Yu just said, "Come in with me." ”
He stepped into the western workshop first, and went straight to the place where the horse was chopping the sword.
Yang Wenguang, Di Qing and the others followed, looking very curious. Although the weapons in the hands of the fifty soldiers were all produced by the construction institute, they had never seen anything inside the construction institute.
There were a lot of people in Xifang, but apart from the jingling and knocking sounds, there were not many people to see.
When Fan Yu led these people to the horse chopping station, they saw that inside the tent, there were many craftsmen forging weapons.
It was still the head craftsman from last time, who greeted Fan Yu over, clasped his fists with both hands and said, "Master Hou wants to take away those axes and guns?" ”
"Exactly, give those axes and guns to these people I brought." Fan Yu instructed: "Give each of them a stalk." ”
Soon, Di Qing, Yang Zongbao and others each received an axe and gun.
For the Great Song Forbidden Army, the appearance of this thing is still somewhat familiar. It is similar to the axe in the palace honor guard, but the steel part in front of it is smaller, and the weight is relatively lighter.
"Master Hou, isn't this thing an axe? Why is it called an axe gun? Yang Wenguang took the axe and gun in his hand and weighed it.
Fan Yu watched as these forbidden soldiers held axes and guns in their hands, some tried to wield them, and some carried them on their shoulders.
"This kind of weapon is lighter than an axe, but it does not lose the ability to chop. But the main way to kill is to assassinate with the gun head in front, do you understand? Fan Yu said with a smile.
Most of these forbidden soldiers didn't think much of what Fan Yu said, and they didn't think that Fan Yu's judgment was justified. Including Yang Wenguang, they didn't listen.
Only Di Qing stabbed the axe and spear in his hand, and then tried to slash twice, his eyes flickering as if he had realized.
Fan Yu didn't say anything more, but asked everyone to take axes and guns, and followed him to another courtyard in Yixi Workshop.
At this time, Xu Shou was in this courtyard, and asked people to tie sacks to some wooden stakes, and then put on heavy armor.
By the time Fan Yu arrived in the courtyard with the fifty forbidden soldiers, Xu Shou had already finished arranging.
"Master Hou, please take a look." Xu Shou pointed to the five wooden stakes in the courtyard and said: "A total of five wooden stakes have been erected here, all of which are covered with foot armor like elite foot soldiers according to the orders of the Hou Ye. ”
Fan Yu looked at the wooden stakes arranged by Xu Shou, and couldn't help nodding and said, "It's good, that's it." ”
Turning his head and looking at Yang Wenguang, Di Qing and the other fifty people, "The axe and gun in your hand are mainly used to deal with the heavy armored cavalry. In the battle array, the heavy cavalry moved like a mountain, and once they rushed through the formation, it would be difficult to stop them. The biggest reason is that the heavy armored cavalry is one, and the momentum is huge and difficult. Secondly, these cavalrymen had heavy armor and were not afraid of swords and arrows. ”
"That's why I've had these axes and guns lighter than axes and axes, so that you can try to break through your armor." Fan Yu continued: "Yang Dianzhi, you can try to stab the armor on a wooden stake to test its power. ”
Yang Wenguang received the order, hugged his fist to Fan Yu and said, "The lower official obeys the order." ”
Holding the axe and gun in his hand, Yang Wenguang first danced a flower, and then suddenly reflexively stabbed violently.
This was very sudden, and he first turned around and walked away, as if he was about to run away. But the others jerked back, and the whole axe and spear were like a poisonous dragon coming out of the hole, suddenly stabbing the foot armor on the wooden stake.
Although the Buren armor was already the heaviest armor in the Great Song Dynasty, it couldn't withstand this blow, and it was pierced by Yang Wenguang on the spot.
Everyone applauded, and Xu Shou was also dazzled, and couldn't help nodding and applauding.
Yang Wenguang turned around, put his hands together, put the axe back in his arms, and said to Fan Yu: "Please correct Master Hou." ”
After watching Yang Wenguang's performance, Fan Yu was disappointed, is this the Yang family general who will be famous in later generations? How to let him try out military weapons, like a handle-style performer. If you throw a few copper coins at this time, will it be perfect?
Although he thought so in his heart, Fan Yu couldn't do it. It's just that his face is not very good, which makes Yang Wenguang feel a little depressed.
Shaking his head, Fan Yu looked at Di Qing and said, "Di Qing, you come to try this axe gun." ”
Di Qing glanced at Yang Wenguang and didn't say anything, just hugged his fist towards Fan Yu, and strode towards the stake.
As soon as the man approached the stake, Di Qing raised the axe and spear in his hand, stepped forward with a lunge, and pierced the armor with an axe and gun. Then retract the axe gun, and use the blade of the axe to slash firmly at the shoulder and neck of the armor.
A good step four, under Di Qing's axe and gun, only three or two strokes, it was chopped into pieces.
"Yang Dianzhi, can you still use me to correct you?" Fan Yu said to Yang Wenguang, who was standing on the side.
Yang Wenguang was the oldest among the people present, but at this time, Fan Yu's face was red and he couldn't answer.
