Chapter 366: Equipment
In the 32nd year of Qi Jiguang Jiajing, he was transferred to the Zhejiang Metropolitan Command Department as a guerrilla, and the first time he heard the name Qian Yuan was in the governor's yamen, and Tu Dashan, who was the governor of Zhejiang at the time, scolded Huating Qian Yuan.
Later, Qi Jiguang learned that Tu Dashan summoned Yu Dayou, who had just been defeated, to rush to the aid of Tongxiang, but in Chongde County, Qian Yuan refused and expelled the messenger.
Later, news came that Yu Dayou held on to the city, won a great victory in Chongde, and beheaded more than a thousand, but Xu Hai flipped away calmly with a shot, and Qi Jiguang chased and passed by Chongde, only to know that his wife Wang was also in Chongde, and he was commensurate with Qian Yuan's sister and brother.
Since then, Qi Jiguang and Qian Yuan have been inseparable, whether it is the wolf's tooth in the first battle of Linpingshan, or Hu Zongxian's priority supplement to Qi Jiguang's army, and then Qi Jiguang Yiwu recruited troops into an army, and then fought several times in Taizhou, Qian Yuan's shadow has always loomed behind Qi Jiguang.
Someone once joked that Qi Jiguang learned the art of war from Qian Yuan, but Qi Jiguang himself had no complaints and just laughed at it, in fact, he secretly contributed to this statement.
Qi Jiguang is a person who is very good at drilling camp relations, and he is also very well-informed, Qian Yuan stirred up the storm in Beijing and became famous...... Qi Jiguang knew it all in his heart.
Leaving the barracks, facing Qian Yuan and Wu Baipeng, the smile on Qi Jiguang's face never stopped, Qian Yuan couldn't help but think in his heart, he chose Zhang Juzheng in the original time and space, will he change his goal in this life?
"Yes, today is indeed a selection of soldiers, of course, the sudden heavy rain is really an accident." Qi Jiguang explained: "The first batch of more than 1,000 recruits, after several battles, I found that no matter what the enemy soldiers in the army are, they must have courage, strong arms, and toughness. ”
"Speaking of this, I have to thank Zhancai, who has been defeated several times, and the damage is very small, mainly thanks to the wolf's tooth."
"I know this, I've seen it in Taozhai Town." Wu Baipeng sighed: "The wolf soldiers of Guishun Prefecture are vulnerable in front of the Qian family's guards, and the wolf tooth and shield can stabilize the position. ”
"And that's not all." Qi Jiguang's eyebrows fluttered and said: "Before the battle with the Japanese Kou, once they got close, many emperors were at a loss, but there were wolf fangs, which could cover the whole body, which was enough to strengthen the courage and help the qi." ”
"Understood, wolftooth whisk...... You've been modified, it's too heavy, so you have to draft troops. Qian Yuanwen said angrily, sneezed, turned his head and asked Qi Jimei, "What's the matter?" Still not serving yet? In the past, you two brothers were not polite at all in the food garden! ”
"Right away, right away." Qi Jimei is more respectful to Qian Yuan than his brother, maybe this is his brother-in-law, "Yesterday I shot a few pheasants and hares, as well as a muntjac, and it was good to burn it to taste, and Brother Yang also asked people to send some dried chili peppers to add flavor." ”
"Muntjac...... Qian Yuan swallowed, he had eaten this thing once or twice in his previous life, and he didn't know if it was really wild, "Ming'er will take one for me?" ”
"No problem!" Qi Jiguang waved his hand, "Immediately let people go up the mountain to fight...... Well, when it's dark, let's go to a nearby village and ask. ”
"It has to be yellow muntjac, the black muntjac meat is too rough to gnaw on!" Qian Yuan smiled and said: "Jinhua ham is famous all over the world......"
"Yes, don't worry, I'll prepare more for you, I don't know if my aunt moved to Taizhou, go back and let your sister go to Linhai to see, she is in Xinhe, not far from Linhai County."
Wu Baipeng was also speechless, and left the building crookedly as he spoke, is it time to talk about food?
"That's right, Brother Weixi, Jinhua ham is not rare, go back and bring you some mountain delicacies, it is raining today, I will let people go up the mountain to pick it early tomorrow morning."
Wu Baipeng sighed and paused before saying, "My family was poor when I was young...... Zhongjin Shi did not return to his hometown for many years, and this is the third time he returned to Yiwu after serving as a patrol in Zhejiang. ”
Qi Jiguang blinked, "Then bring a few Jinhua hams too?" ”
"He just likes to eat meat." Qian Yuan said casually: "Brother Weixi, you have lived in the southeast for a long time, there should be a lot of storms in July and August, right?" ”
"It's hard to say." Wu Baipeng shook his head, "But looking at it this year, there should be one, and the time may not be short." ”
Qi Jiguang drove his younger brother out and asked softly: "Your Excellency the Governor ordered to form an army and rush to Taizhou as soon as possible, but the Japanese are going to invade on a large scale?" ”
Wu Baipeng turned his head to look at Qian Yuan...... Although he didn't know the inside story, he knew very well that the change only appeared after Qian Yuan came to Hangzhou.
"Xu Hai and Wang Zhi have ceased fighting." Qian Yuan introduced the general situation, "So, if there is a typhoon in the coastal state capital of Xu Haibikou, it may be a little late, but Yuan Jing's side still has to form an army as soon as possible." ”
"Recruitment began in early March, a total of 3,647 people, and now there are 3,589 people left, and 2,263 people are selected today." Qi Jiguang knew these numbers well, "As long as you prepare your ordnance, you can pull it out immediately...... Will the Japanese attack Taizhou? ”
Qian Yuan hesitated for a while before saying, "I'm not sure, this time Xu Hai invaded...... I always felt that he wasn't necessarily trying to plunder money. ”
"Young and strong population?" Wu Baipeng said: "You just said that Xu Hai and Wang Zhi started a war and suffered a lot of losses, and there were only five or six thousand people under his command. ”
"But after the war, the chaos of five or six thousand people is not necessarily smaller than that of two years ago." Qi Jiguang was a little excited, the time had come to make a contribution.
While chatting, the food outside was arranged, and the three of them got up and sat down, pouring a few glasses of light wine and drinking slowly.
Qian Yuan is a person who never gets tired of eating, and what he hates the most is that the chef throws everything into it and cooks it to a, but the game needs to be boiled for a long time, and the hares, pheasants, and yellow muntjac are all cooked quite deliciously, plus a few dried chili peppers are lost, which are salty and fragrant, which makes people daunting.
A chopstick grabbed a chicken leg first, although the meat was not as tender as in the previous life, but the more you chewed, the more flavorful it became, Qian Yuan ate it with relish, which provoked Wu Baipeng to frequently put down chopsticks.
After eating until he was full, Wu Baipeng picked up the previous topic, "Yuan Jing, how much ordnance is missing?" You wrote to the Governor's Mansion to build your own ordnance, that is, the wolf's tooth? ”
"I've seen it just now, the wolf's tooth whisk has been modified, one zhang five or six long, the front half is attached to the branch, the head of the gun is made of iron, and it weighs about seven or eight pounds." Qian Yuan also had a piece of muntjac meat in his mouth, "People who don't have strong arms can't use it, no wonder they are so selected today." ”
Qi Jiguang nodded first, and then shook his head slightly, "Zhancai and Brother Weixi both know the formation, each team only needs two wolf tooth whisks, although it is difficult to build, but there are not many of them, in fact, the gap is mainly spears." ”
"Nowadays, the length of the spear in the army is different, the short one is about five or six feet, and the long one is only one zhang, but the spear I built ......" Qi Jiguang smiled and said: "One zhang and four feet." ”
Qian Yuan was dumbfounded, why was such a long spear...... The wolf's tooth whisk is an unconventional weapon, one zhang five or six is about five meters, and one zhang four feet is also four meters five!
After a moment of silence in the room, Wu Baipeng praised: "It's a good idea, in fact, in addition to the long knives used by the real widows, many widows also use long spears, about six or seven feet, with a shield hand and a wolf's tooth whisk in front, and a spear of four feet...... Able to kill enemies calmly. ”
Qian Yuan could only sigh, he had never known this kind of detail in his previous life, and he thought about it, the Qian family's guards had been in battle several times before, and the Japanese were also useful with spears.
"In other words, if you have a full spear, you can draw it?" Qian Yuan pondered for a while, "It shouldn't be difficult, it's nothing more than a lengthening of the gun......"
"Where is it so easy." Wu Baipeng understands this, "How long the barrel of the gun is with how long the gun head is, there is a fixed number, a spear of four feet, the head of the gun is at least one and a half feet, and it is made of pure iron, no wonder Yuan Jing asked the Governor's Mansion to allocate silver to make it himself." ”
It is said that the Qi family army can fight and spend money, which is really true, just thinking about whether there is something or not, Qian Yuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and sneered: "By the way, Brother Yuan Jing can inform the governor of the details?" ”
"Of course, the Governor has already set aside dozens of blacksmiths, and when the money arrives, he will start making them." Qi Jiguang rubbed his hands and said: "It's over, I will start changing clothes in half a month, and the longest will not be more than a month." ”
Qian Yuan chewed expressionlessly for a while before swallowing the muntjac meat in his mouth, and drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, "No wonder I have to go this way!" ”
Qi Jiguang glanced at Wu Baipeng in confusion, and the latter spread his hands and signaled that he was not very clear.
However, before Wu Baipeng left, Zheng Ruo privately told Qi Jiguang that Qian Zhancai would take care of one or two more.
Qian Yuan also figured it out, no wonder Hu Zongxian was so kind to let him escort four thousand taels of silver back to Taizhou Mansion, and he also asked himself to inspect Qi Jiguang's military training, this matter is obvious!
It's not that Qian Yuan spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and the spoils that day can be disgraced by the stolen goods, these people can't do anything shitty!
Four thousand taels of silver...... If they are all lost in Yiwu, believe it or not, Tan Lun, who seems to be gentle and elegant, can raise a forty-meter knife and hack to death his nephew who pits him again and again!
