After leaving the artillery factory, after a small half a month of rectification, the infantry battalion and the rocket battalion were initially set up.

The problem of generals, which was the most headache for the local villagers, was easily solved in Cao Wenyao's hands.

It is common sense that ordinary people know that the army chooses generals first, and without outstanding generals, no matter how brave soldiers are, they will not be able to exert much combat effectiveness.

Cao Wenyao is the leader of a large number of generals, and he has too many high-quality officer candidates.

A group of young generals who are familiar with military books were selected to serve as platoon commanders and company commanders, and the squad leaders were left to the soldiers to fight for.

After a few months of various competitions, the squad leader was finally finalized, and the infantry battalion and rocket battalion were preliminarily built.

However, in the process of building the infantry battalion, some changes were made, and a reconnaissance company directly under the infantry battalion was added.

Cao Wenyao was stationed in Xiangyong near Baifu to teach the reconnaissance company a necessary skill for staff officers, and he also learned a method from Zhu Shun.

Contour mapping.

According to Zhu Shun's requirements, in addition to the staff officers of the reconnaissance company and the strategic department, officers at and above the platoon level must also learn how to map and map contour lines.

On a contour map, it is necessary to accurately represent the water system, ferry, ferry depth, river bottom soil, mountains, mountain passes, and other important geographical records.

Arranged for so many people to learn contour map mapping, Zhu Shun also had a purpose, hoping to discover another staff officer with strategic vision.

Zhu Shun was able to discover the two missing pearls of Cao Wenyao and Song Yingsheng, which was already blessed by God.

Want to have another one?

I don't think there's much hope.

The result was no.

The infantry battalion and the rocket battalion are on the north and south sides of the White House, respectively, guarding the White House.

Cao Wenyao's academy for teaching reconnaissance companies and officers was originally in the infantry battalion in the rocket battalion, but today there was another important thing to do, so it was temporarily changed to the rocket battalion.

After only one morning of teaching, they went back and continued to recite the infantry regulations.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the atmosphere of the officers and soldiers was extremely corrupt, and they were more skilled in burning, killing and looting than the rogues.

The biggest reason why King Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng were supported by the people was that the military discipline of the Liukou was much better than that of the officers and soldiers.

Military discipline is very corrupt, not to mention drills, one out of ten exercises is already elite.

The monthly salary of the Self-Defense Forces is very high, and the food is also very good, and you can see meat every day.

The treatment is so good that the rural people who refused at the beginning have repented of their intestines, but they are not used to support idlers.

Zhu Shun's requirements are one exercise, and he has to do a lot of exercises every day to train out a strong physique and steely consciousness.

The drill of the rocket battalion burned even more silver, especially the artillery watch drill that Zhu Shun was going to carry out next.

There is a fenced shooting range near the rocket battalion station, and in order to hide people's eyes, there is a plaque of the shooting range of Wang Gong's Bureau Artillery Factory.

The wide shooting range brought a batch of Dongfeng rockets, which were available in all four models.

Zhu Shun and Cao Wenyao and Song Yingsheng took the officers to the shooting range and handed Cao Wenyao a stack of metal inscriptions: "This is the cannon watch of the rocket, Brother Cao will see if there is anything that needs to be added." ”

In order to prevent damage, the gun watch was deliberately made of fine iron into a thin iron sheet.

Cao Wenyao took it and was attracted by the new way of recording the above table for a long time.

Simple.

glanced at it, fixed his eyes on it, looked at it for a long time and sighed: "It's a pity that the head of the meeting doesn't go to Liaodong." ”

After getting along for so long, Song Yingsheng knows Cao Wenyao's temperament very well, and it seems to be tepid, but in fact, his eyes are above the top in his bones.

There are so many famous generals in Liaodong, and they can only look down on two and a half.

One is Sun Chengzong, the emperor who single-handedly created the Ningjin defense line, the second is Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of Liaodong, and the other half is Yang Sichang, who is not very famous.

Cao Wenyao's praise seems simple, but in fact, he began to admire Zhu Shun from the bottom of his bones.

Song Yingsheng took out one in surprise and looked at it a few times, as a scribe, he cared more about the new way of recording: "With this way of recording, Mr. can also leave a certain reputation in Shilin." ”

After a few glances at the cannon watch, he couldn't help but sigh a few words: "As Brother Cao Xian said, it's a pity that Mr. doesn't go to Liaodong." ”

Zhu Shun smiled faintly.

It is said that it is a gun table, and it is more accurate to say that it should be a shooting table, and the gun table is a statement for artillery.

The shooting table is the firing parameters obtained from each type of artillery, which is manufactured and can be put into actual combat for target testing.

Parameters include, the firing range of different types of guns, the firing range of using different shells, the firing range of adjusting the muzzle height, the firing range in various weather conditions, and so on.

The firing range is the maximum range, the closest range, the angle required per 100 meters, and so on.

After a lot of testing and calculations, the resulting parameters are recorded in a table, which is the shooting table.

The use of firearms is not like cold weapons, you only need to learn to chop and slash to pull the battlefield, firearms, especially gunners, need to master functions, geometry, and even algebra that are difficult for readers to understand.

If you really have to learn this, the gunners are experts in Western studies.

Not to mention the great increase in the cost of training gunners, it also makes the recruitment of gunners extremely limited, and it is difficult for a few people to become qualified gunners.

It's not the same with a cannon watch, even if you can't read, just know what the words on the cannon table mean.

The gunner can get the elevation angle of the barrel through the easy-to-operate gun gauge measurement, and with the use of the gun table, he can clearly know the current firing range.

If the artilleryman wants to increase or decrease the firing range by quickly checking the data of the gun table, it is enough to quickly adjust the elevation angle with the gun gauge.

In this way, on the battlefield, the artillery can quickly adjust the elevation angle of a certain range.

If you really have to do a lot of geometric function calculations, let's not talk about whether there will be calculation errors, and when the gunners finish calculating the data, the war will be over.

The Dongfeng rocket is also a type of artillery, and the gun table can also be applied to the Dongfeng rocket.

However, before the calculation of the gun table, there is an important precondition, and various types of Dongfeng rockets need to be standardized in production.

This precondition has been solved by Zhao Doumi, and at the same time, a cannon table of Dongfeng rockets has been accurately calculated.

Zhu Shun took out another gauge, which consisted of a long copper ruler and a short copper ruler, nailed at right angles.

There is an arc ruler in the middle of the two copper rulers, which is engraved with a scale.

Zhu Shun personally demonstrated it, put the gun gauge on the Dongfeng rocket, and used the triangle principle to read the elevation angle on the arc ruler.

After the demonstration, Zhu Shun handed over a bunch of simple gun rules to Cao Wenyao.

Leave with peace of mind.

There's Cao Wenyao here.

In the near future, the rocket battalion will far surpass the Jurchen Eight Banners and the Russian Cossack cavalry.

In the Ming Dynasty, it became the most feared army in the Western Far East.
