Now that he is practicing the battle formation tactics, Qin Dongyang has been quite strict.

Each array is like a small black square, and more than ten people are lined up neatly, echoing each other with the array on the left, center and right.

There are also a few drummers and flag bearers, which is to let the teenagers know in advance to fight with the order of the golden drum.

If conditions permit, various terrains such as rivers, streams, hills, shrubs, etc., are deliberately set up, and the array can be adjusted according to the terrain.

According to the Great Wei military system, the middle is the hand, the long gun is more suitable than the spear, the iron spear is more suitable, the head is flat, the blood groove is open, the blade is open at both ends, you can poke and slash, you can also swing, it is a very sharp weapon in the army.

In the middle of the long hand, on both sides of the protrusion are a small number of knife players, more should be archers and crossbowmen.

However, the number of hard bows was now insufficient, and Xu Zixian had already interceded with Chen Wen, the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, requesting that two hundred hard bows and one hundred longbows be allocated for daily use and training.

If you really can't do it, you can also go to the private sector to buy it.

The people of the Great Wei Dynasty did not prohibit firearms, nor did they prohibit various weapons such as knives, guns, sticks, and sticks, nor did they prohibit bows, but they were forbidden to make hard crossbows and strong crossbows. The power of the strong crossbow and the hard crossbow is too great, if there are unscrupulous people who assassinate officials, they may succeed at a distance of 100 steps, and it is difficult for the guards to protect them at such a distance.

The bow and arrow kill is also dozens of steps away, but the bow and arrow are difficult to practice, easy to learn and difficult to master, in addition, the folk hunting is also inseparable from the bow and arrow, when the Taizu was customized, it also advocated the folk martial arts and arrows, and maintained the folk martial arts atmosphere, so all over the country, there are many folk bow and arrow clubs, many officials and gentlemen, for the "six arts" proficient, also often fiddle with the bow and arrow, but just put on a show.

In addition, it is forbidden for the people to build armor, ordinary people or folk martial artists, it doesn't matter if they are skilled in bows and horses, and then build armor out, won't they become an elite soldier in an instant? Therefore, no matter how the weapons are released, the private creation and concealment of armor is equivalent to complicity against the major crime, and this article has never been relaxed.

It is difficult to manufacture bows and arrows, but the folk archery atmosphere is strong, and it is not difficult to buy a qualified hard bow, but a good bow and arrow is expensive, and a sword is at least a dozen or even dozens of times, and it is difficult to support it with the financial resources of the Hou Mansion for the time being, and this matter is also important, but it is still delayed.

In any case, the configuration of the sword players and archers and crossbowmen in the queue is to be there, Zhang Huchen is a family of generals, Qin Dongyang is not in charge of the training, the teenagers are divided into two teams, the left, the middle and the right three posts are complete, attacking back and forth, changing queues, intersecting with each other, bows and crossbows are fired in succession, and the sword and shield are guarded, which is already very similar.

Xu Zi looked at it for a while, walked to the front of the formation, and said to the knife players in the two-sided array: "The sword is a wooden sword, and the knife is a wooden knife, but when you train, you have to treat the guy in your hand as real." Be serious about blocking, slashing, don't talk about fancy things. The first is to have strength, the second is to have eyesight, the third is to be skillful, and the fourth is to have the courage to go forward and kill the enemy without leaving any effort. Like you, who respond to stories and wield knives softly, what does it look like? ”

All the teenagers cheered up and listened, although Xu Zixian couldn't eat and sleep with them, but he was very strict with their rules at the same time, he also took great care of them, and when training, as long as he had time, he trained in one place, practiced equipment and strength together, ran together, and explained the formation at night.

The Zhangzhou boy who has followed him for a long time has been in the other courtyard for two months, and he has received the monthly money twice, both of which are solid Chongde Tongbao, and Huang Cancan's solid copper coins are in hand, which is more effective than any incentive.

What's more, a more ambitious future is waiting, not only the identity of the tooth general with the official body, but also Xu Zixian has made it clear that the regiment training is recruited, and more than 1,000 people are all farmers around the strong men, most of them are illiterate and old, and there may be talents among them, but most of them will still send the Hou Fuya general to be an officer in the future, and they can get a formal commission.

Whether it is a teenager in the surrounding village, or a young man from Zhangzhou, such a future is so different from the sky, coupled with Xu Zi's first efforts, these teenagers are already full of loyalty, and the loyalty of young people is easy to obtain, but it will not be easily lost, which is also the reason why the heroes who have always been successful will raise teenagers in the army, and even accept righteous sons.

Of course, Xu Zixian will not accept Yizi, this method is just to save trouble.

"I want to use you, not because you are strong now, but because I hope you will become stronger and be used by me in the future." Xu Zixian said sharply again: "If you don't have all your strength, your body is not green or swollen all day long, what kind of training?" The monthly money, the daily fish and meat, is it for you to play here? ”

A little encouragement, whether it is a hand or a knife player, they also do their best when training each other, and without two moments of effort, many people are bruised and swollen from being beaten, and even bleeding from broken skin.

Xu Zixian ordered a pause, and he personally bandaged the injured teenager with others, and the people who were bandaged by him were moved and their bodies trembled slightly.

Zhang Huchen, Lin Cunxin and others watched from the side, Zhang Huchen's eyes were calm, and he said in an affirmative tone: "The prince trains like this, these children will not only be strong and elite within half a year, but will also become generals with troops in the future." ”

Lin Cunxin nodded in agreement, his eyes flickered, he was already planning to write a letter after he went back, and sent someone to hurry to the Lin family in Zhangzhou, if there is a young child who can be cultivated, you might as well send someone to send it quickly, and recruit the group to practice, others see that the son of the world has no way to succeed, but in Lin Cunxin's opinion, what a person like the son of the world wants to do must be successful. In the future, even if the Fuzhou regimental training cannot become a regular soldier, but the military registration of the officer is on the register and he becomes the official military attache of the imperial court, there will be no difference at this level.

Looking at Zhang Huchen again, it seems that it is also considered in all, the Zhang family is a family of generals of the Xinghua Army, and there are not necessarily many suitable children in the family, but there must be a lot.

When Zhongya was watching from the sidelines, Xu Zixian called more than thirty archers to the side.

The folk archery atmosphere is very strong, so there are many teenagers who are good at shooting, and after the master dials, the archery skills are advancing by leaps and bounds. However, the Hou Mansion did not follow the Great Wei military system here, more than half of them were crossbowmen or archers, Xu Zixian knew the importance of long-range weapons in foot combat, but the teenagers he was cultivating now were still cultivated with melee military attachés as the prototype.

"Aside from skill, my most important expectation for you is to enforce the ban." Xu Zixian said to the young archers: "I have a piece of red cloth in my hand, and you can shoot wherever I throw it, how about it?" ”

A young man named Li Pu was more lively and bold, and said with a smile: "If the prince is thrown in front of him, we don't dare to shoot." ”

"I don't usually like to say it a second time." Xu Zi didn't get angry at first, but Zhengse said to the archers: "The worst of you, when you start coming, you can hit seven or eight arrows with ten arrows, I don't believe that after practicing for so long, it's better when you first came?" I have faith in you, and you must believe in yourselves. ”

The distance between the place of practicing archery is relatively far, Xu Zixian walked all the way over, out of the West Corner Gate, there is a place of three or four hundred steps square, there are thirty or forty targets, this is the arrow field.

Everyone was dressed shortly, and some of them followed Xu Zi first, and Zhang Huchen and others also temporarily stopped training, frowning and looking here.

Xu Zi walked to the target first, he had already taken a piece of red cloth tied with stones in his hand, this is Zhang Huchen's method of training riding archery, the knight rode on a war horse, it is easier to shoot a fixed target in a circle, it is difficult to shoot a moving target, the most difficult thing is to throw a red cloth, can shoot the red cloth, riding and shooting is considered a beginner.

If you want to talk about the highest level of riding and shooting, of course, it is galloping horses and shooting willows. The willow branches are smaller than the red cloth, and the willow branches are soft and tough, and they lack strength, and they keep shooting.

Shooting willows was originally the highest method of riding and shooting in the army, and now these subordinates of Xu Zixian are still very early to shoot willows.

"Where I throw it, that's where you want to shoot." Xu Zixian's face was solemn and he said: "I remember that military law takes obedience as the first priority, and there is no second chance." ”

With that, he threw the red cloth more than ten steps in front of him, and shouted, "Shoot me!" ”

The voice was still in his ears, and Li Pu and the others, who had already opened their hard bows and waited on the opposite side, had already opened their fingers and opened the strings, and the arrows flew like locusts, making a buzzing sound, and the sound of the bowstrings crackling and exploding followed, and when they looked at it again, more than 20 arrows fell on the left side of the red cloth, densely packed, like a bush that had just grown.

Looking at Li Pu and the others again, their faces were pale, Zhang Huchen and others had already rushed over, kicking and beating these young archers, Li Pu and the others were also deeply remorseful and afraid, they were also in awe of Xu Zixian, and they all thought, if someone shoots inaccurately, the strength is a little greater, and the consequences may be unimaginable.

"I'm not that stupid." Xu Zixian looked very happy, walked closer, stopped Zhang Huchen and the others, and said with a smile: "I know very well the archery skills of these people. There is a difference of one step or so, even if I miss, I throw it ten steps away, if this can shoot me, unless it is Chengxin to shoot me, but their archery, Chengxin shoots me, I'm afraid I won't be able to shoot again. ”

Zhang Huchen grinned when he said this, think about it, these boys, shoot seven or eight out of ten, a difference of at most one or two steps, if you shoot with your heart, most of them will not miss, but after thinking about it, it is still too risky.

At that moment, Zhang Huchen said: "Qin Dianwei is not here, but I have to report this matter to Dianwei and Fengchang, I am afraid that they will come to talk to the prince of the world, and the prince will not blame me when the time comes." ”

"And rightfully so." Xu Zi responded first, then turned his head and said to those archer boys: "There is no absolute insurance in the world, if it is absolutely successful, someone tells you so, just shoot him with an arrow." I'm going to test your guts, your courage, and your fear of me, and you're all qualified, and I'm very satisfied. If there is something to use you underneath, I can rest assured. ”

"Yes, Shizi." All the teenagers agreed in unison, and finally there was a humane: "Next time, it's better to try in another way, this time, I really scared half of my life." ”

Xu Zixian smiled and said nothing, this kind of trial method is the same as Mao Dun Shan Yu, it can be regarded as picking up people's teeth, but people who don't read much will not know, and besides, they have tried and tried many times.

If there is a hesitation, dare not shoot, or deliberately miss, although such a person is clever, but can be used for other things, the soldier to eat food, or like these teenagers in front of him, the mentality is simple, only to obey the order is better.

It can be seen from this that the young people carefully selected by himself, Li Yi, Qin Dongyang and others, whether they are selected from the local or Zhangzhou refugees, are all first-class good seedlings because they are one in a hundred.

"Don't train this afternoon." Xu Zixian instructed Zhang Huchen and the others: "Put on clean clothes for them, and in the afternoon, the whole team will go out with me to all parts of the town on business." ”

Zhang Huchen glared and said, "What does the prince want us to do?" ”

Xu Zi sold Guan Zi first and said, "You will know when the time comes." ”
