Beifu, Honorary Military Cemetery, originally this cemetery was called the Honorary Military Cemetery, but don't underestimate the addition of a mausoleum, later generations may be called the cemetery full of sky, but in this era, only the emperor's tomb can be called a cemetery.

And the addition of the word mausoleum means that Ye Kai will definitely fulfill his previous promise, and he will definitely hide here after a hundred years.

All the soldiers of the two regiments of the Fuxing Company, the platoon commanders and above the officers of the police corps, and the mighty seven or eight thousand people, gathered in front of the square of the cemetery.

The 270 bodies have just moved into the cemetery, of course, many of them are well-dressed mounds, such as Huang Dongzai and Ye Asheng, almost all of them are crushed to pieces, and there are no corpses to collect.

Of the 270 people, 210 of the Ye family soldiers died in the battle with Nguyen Hue, and 60 belonged to the police army.

Of course, the police army sacrificed far more than 60 soldiers, but only 60 people were eligible to enter the cemetery.

"Colonel Huang! Please receive the military flag! Ye Kai handed a flag to Huang Laosi, who was supported by his two younger brothers.

This red background gold sun and moon flag is different from the previous military flags, it is embroidered with a small golden five-pointed star in the lower right corner, symbolizing that the army has won the highest honor, only the team that won the hardest battles is eligible to embroider a small five-pointed star on the military flag.

Huang Laosi took the military flag with a serious expression, he looked at the crowd behind him, Ye Zhenwu, who had just woken up from a coma, was lying on a soft chair and was being carried by others, his brother Huang Laoer, who had lost a lot of weight and was likely to be lame with a cane and would not break his leg, and Liu Chonghan, who was still in high spirits, all showed a pleased smile.

Huang Laosi looked forward again, and in that mountain-like cemetery, his best brothers, friends, and family were buried.

Scarface, Ye Mingchu, Huang Dongzai, Jiang Asheng, the "indigenous Chinese" Zhong Mudu, and many, many familiar faces of Huang Laosi, he slowly raised his right hand and saluted the military flag fluttering above his head.

"Salute!" When Huang Laosi saluted, everyone, including Chen Wenqi, who usually had the most trouble with him, raised their hands and saluted solemnly!

"Hooray! Long live the revival company! Long live the chief! I don't know who shouted feverishly, and the whole square was full of people.

Long live, Ye Kai slowly walked to some people standing on the left side of the crowd who were not wearing military uniforms, they were the families of the soldiers who died this time.

Huang Dongzai's parents cried breathlessly, and Jiang Asheng's widowed mother held Jiang Asheng's brother's hand tightly, as if she was afraid that he would also disappear.

The scar-faced Peranakan wife is holding a little boy who has a tiger head and a tiger brain and doesn't know what is going on, if it weren't for the support of her parents around her, she would almost be unstable!

Ye Kai walked to Scarface's wife, he took out a brush, dipped a little ground cinnabar on Scarface's son's forehead, and then shouted loudly: "Whoever dares to say that this child is a Baba in the future, Lao Tzu will break his mouth!" ”

"Yes!" Countless voices behind him collectively agreed.

Scarface's wife finally regained a little blood on her face, and she was about to kneel down to thank her, but Ye Kai quickly bent down and helped her.

"Condolences and changes, if this child has any needs in the future, just come to me, Ye Yabai Scarface Daimyo will issue a bereavement pension according to the standard of a lieutenant colonel in the future, if I Ye Shuwu can become a king in the future, there will be no shortage of a marquis!"

After speaking, Ye Kai handed a golden sun-shaped badge to Scarface's son.

He designed a total of six badges, from highest to lowest: Golden Sun, Golden Moon, Silver Day, Silver Moon, Bronze Day, and Copper Moon.

And this time, he issued ten Golden Day badges to the two company commanders who died in the civil war, including Scarface, the battalion deputy Ye Mingchu, the five platoon commanders, Huang Dongzai and Ye Asheng.

A Golden Moon badge was awarded to Huang Laosi.

Of the two hundred Silver Sun Badges, only Liu Chonghan, Ye Zhenwu, and a superman who single-handedly killed more than twenty-five soldiers of the Xishan Army were killed, and the rest of the winners had already died in battle.

The 1st Company, the 2nd Company, and the elite of the Terengganu Battalion, who were not killed in battle, were all awarded the Silver Moon Badge.

In the end, the grenadier company that defeated Wu Wenyong collectively received the Silver Moon Badge, and the rest of the meritorious ones only received the Bronze Day and Bronze Moon Medals.

All officers and soldiers who have received these medals will be treated a little higher than others, and there will be differences in their uniforms.

For example, Huang Laosi, who received the Golden Moon Badge, will allow the brim of his military hat and the collar of his military uniform to be embroidered with a golden moon to show the difference.

Jiang Asheng's widowed mother held the Golden Sun badge tightly, as if it was Jiang Asheng's life, Ye Kai told him that he could meet Ye Kai at any time with this badge in the future.

No matter what grievances she suffers, she can come to Ye Kai for comment, Jiang Asheng's younger brother, and with this badge, he can directly enter the clan primary school and clan middle school that the Ye family school has changed.

And the deeds of Jiang Asheng and Huang Dongzai will also be written as a short story, which will become a story that every student of Fuxing Company must memorize.

For a whole day, Ye Kai was dealing with the matter of being killed and wounded and having to retire from the army, and it was not until more than seven o'clock in the evening that he had time to rush home, and as soon as he walked to the door, he was stopped by a second lieutenant wearing a military uniform.

Ye Kai saw that it was his brother who stopped him, the heroic company commander of the Oudino grenadier battalion, who dared to detonate a picric acid bomb within three meters outside Ganmaxi and blew up the Bugis Sultan Ibrahim into flesh.

"Brother! You have something to do with me, come in with me, and I'll let the kitchen get some wine and food while eating. Ye Kai said kindly to Ye Adi.

Ye Adi gave Ye Kai a standard military salute, and then shook his head.

"Chief, I won't go in, I'll tell you something and leave!"

"Alright! What do you say! ”

Seeing that Ye Adi's expression was firm, Ye Kai did not force the invitation, but pulled Ye Adi to sit down at the threshold of the door.

"Chief, I think my tactics can be changed!"

Ye Adi was a little nervous, but he still boldly said his suggestion.

"Oh?"

Ye Kai raised his eyebrows in surprise, he thought back for a moment, he trained his army according to European standard military codes!

And the French officers and soldiers hired are also genuine regular soldiers, not indiscriminate guys, is there anything wrong with that?

"Chief! I think we're wasting too much ammunition, for example, in our grenadier team, every time we fight, one person drops at least a dozen bombs.

But in fact, it doesn't take so much at all, many times, you only need to throw out one or two pieces per person, and the enemy on the opposite side will be scattered, and the money is all our Ye family, which you have earned so hard, you can't waste it like this! ”

As a member of the Ye family, Ye Adi has a very mastery spirit.

Ye Kai nodded, indeed, the consumption of bullets and bombs is really a big problem, every time he finishes a battle, Ye Kai looks at the battle report, and his heart shrinks, if he fights, he can beat him for tens of thousands of taels of silver, and if he can't do hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, he can do hundreds of thousands of taels for more.

Seeing that Ye Kai agreed with his statement, Ye Adi was more confident.

"Commander, I think we can split the grenadier company into other battalions, such as a horizontal formation of thirty men, we can have two grenadiers, ten flintlock pissiers with bayonets, and eighteen flintlock musketeers without bayonets!"

While speaking, Ye Adi also picked up a small branch and drew it outside the door of the Ye family's ancestral house.

In this case, there would be two grenadiers throwing bombs in a horizontal formation of thirty people, and the firepower would be greatly increased, and there would be no waste of bombs like the grenadier company.

I thought about it carefully, the firepower of the Xishan Army we faced was not strong, but the number of people was strong, and there was often hand-to-hand combat, if like us now, the flintlock musketeers with bayonets and without bayonets were separated, once the flintlock company without bayonets encountered the close combat of the Xishan Army, it was likely to suffer heavy casualties!

But if we mix in this way, according to a phalanx of 90 people, we can turn thirty flintlock musketeers with bayonets into pikemen, six grenadiers as mobile artillery, and the remaining fifty-four people can concentrate on platoon guns and free fire, so that we can not be afraid of hand-to-hand combat of the Xishan Army! ”

it!

Ye Kai looked at Ye Adi, who was talking eloquently, if you replace these six grenadiers with cannons, isn't this the Spanish phalanx!

Although this style of play is now outdated in Europe, it can be used to attack the Tay Son Army, which has more cold weapons than hot weapons, especially in the jungle terrain of Vietnam, this formation is far better than copying the European queue of shooting.

Moreover, the Europeans did not use the Spanish phalanx because their flintlock musketeers had bayonets in their hands and could be turned into melee pikemen at any time.

However, in Ye Kai's army, the possession rate of bayonets was only 40 percent, and the elite with bayonets was in one company, and those without bayonets were in one company.

According to the hit rate and firing rate of the smoothbore gun pit at this time, it will indeed be very dangerous if it is approached by the army of the Xishan Army.

But if there is this kind of mixing, not to mention that it can be easily defeated, at least it has the ability to resist, and in the end, this kind of play can undoubtedly save Ye Kai a lot of ammunition.

My brother is a talent!

Ye Kai looked at Ye Adi, he seemed to see a star of the Ye family, which was rising!
