In the room, Su Qinghe didn't say much.

Although he still didn't think that this kind of weapon that was "just a little louder" and "finished a round and it was over" was worthy of the young master's attention, Liang Zheng was very stubborn, and he could only agree.

The shiny musket was moved to the hall, and the generals were quickly assembled, Liang Zheng glanced at the eyes focused on him in all directions, took a deep breath, and then reached out to take a musket:

"These flintlock pistols are a little different from our three-eyed guns, but they're pretty much the same, and I'm going to show you a show for them now."

As he spoke, he pointed to the bolt: "This is called the trigger, this is called the snap spring, first push the snap forward to expose the firing groove, and pull the bolt to a safe position." ”

……

"A small amount of gunpowder is injected into the firing groove, and after the gunpowder is in the flute, the buckle spring is pulled back to cover the firing groove, and the remaining gunpowder is poured into the muzzle along with the projectile."

……

"Pull out the loading rod under the barrel, compact the gunpowder with the loading rod, withdraw the loading rod, put it in place, and you're done. All that's left is to listen to my commands to aim and shoot. Of course, the proportion of gunpowder is very important, if there is less, it will not sound, and if there is more, it will explode, but don't worry, I will ask the Su steward to help you mix it out in proportion and wrap it in paper. ”

……

A set of preparatory actions was completed quickly, and it took only a few seconds before and after.

This is of course because Liang Zheng has been a die-hard fan of Clausewitz's "On War" for a while, and he has also collected information on flintlock pistols very carefully on the Internet, but it is also because the preparation of flintlock pistols is so simple and easy to learn.

Otherwise, why could it replace the longbow in Europe?

Seeing this, those generals couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

The young master would actually fiddle with these foreign things?

"Just, it's as simple as that......?" A home will involuntarily blurt out.

Although they had confronted the British army when they were in Guangzhou, the British army squad was sacking Zhuangzi, that is, in the most disorganized and undisciplined state, and then Su Qinghe and his generals descended from the sky......

Where are these people who are the opponents of the battle-hardened generals of the Liang family? It didn't take much effort for the British to surrender.

Therefore, Su Qing and them have never confronted the modern line army, and naturally they have never seen them operate guns, and they don't know what is really terrible after the line infantry is organized......

They are very disciplined and resistant to casualties, and often have to advance to within 80 meters before starting to line their guns, and during this period of advance, they will constantly suffer from the enemy's fire, and people will continue to fall, but the real line infantry can still listen to the drum beat and move forward calmly. This kind of discipline and organization can defeat the ordinary feudal army in the first place, and with the intensive platoon of gun strikes, it can collapse the opponent in an instant.

Take cavalry as an example, the traditional cavalry from the feudal samurai can completely defeat the modern cavalry in one-on-one. But when the collective against the collective, the discipline and tactical regulations of the modern cavalry played a huge role, the same cold weapon combat, when 1,000 highly trained modern cavalry launched the famous wall charge, very few feudal cavalry can resist.

In the process of the British conquest of India, in fact, there was only one formed cavalry, that is, the 16th Queen's Light Dragoon Regiment, but the cavalry of only a few hundred people often beat several times the traditional Indian cavalry in the cold weapon charge.

"yes, it's that simple." Liang Zheng said.

"But young master, this thing ......," another general asked, "it's really better than our three-eyed guns, isn't it a useless guy with a single shot?" ”

"Of course, it also requires the coordination of formations, the iron will, and the courage to collapse without changing the face of Tarzan - I believe everyone has these two things, but ......" He looked up at the sky, a hint of worry flashing through the corner of his eye.

It's just that you need to think of yourself as a machine......

In this way, you can order and prohibit, you can watch the people around you fall and be indifferent, you can reload your ammunition without changing your face in the face of the cavalry charge, you can give full play to the maximum advantage of the musket, and you can defeat the superior cavalry at the least cost.

And this is the biggest difficulty of the line strategy, otherwise this tactic is just a joke.

But it takes training!

It is indeed difficult for a group of cavalry-born guys to train the phalanx of line infantry in such a short period of time.

"We only have one night," he said, looking at everyone with a faint gaze, "Hibiki will be here tomorrow." ”

Can it be done in such a short time?

The servants of the county government were not reliable at all, and although they had muskets, it was still unknown whether the temporary training could achieve the effect.

So no matter how you look at it, the dizzying obstruction is still there.

But!

"But one night is enough." Liang Zheng was stunned word by word.

More sonorous!

Because he firmly believes that only in this way can he pass on his determination to everyone! I firmly believe that I can do it!

Since the red lady has to have her own head......

"Then let me break the superstition that there is no life and death in the soul detention order!" Liang Zheng secretly swore in his heart.

The fish on the chopping board still have to jump.

So just do it, and the story will inevitably go from collapse to revival!

Early the next morning, when the genius was bright, Wu Dalie was awakened by a rapid knock on the door.

"My lord, something is wrong!" The official who rushed into the room stumbled, "Liang Gongzi took his family out of the city, saying that he was going to face the red lady alone." ”

"What......!" Wu Dalie's surprise was not trivial, and he almost couldn't even speak.

Is this Liang Zheng crazy, he asked him to quickly pack up his things to avoid it, but he was good, and simply sent himself directly to the sword of the red lady.

"How many people did he bring?" Wu Dalie hurriedly asked.

"It seems to be a hundred people...... "The official recalled.

So Wu Xian Ling was dumbfounded again on the spot.

Just 100 people?

Zhao Zhengyang's generation of tiger generals, with the elite division of bandits, was killed by the Red Lady and annihilated, and he was captured alive, but Liang Zheng only brought such a few people......

I'm afraid that this is no longer a death, but a death!

"Hurry up and gather two shifts of officials, all the people are strong and strong, and immediately follow me out of the city to save people!" Wu Dalie was so anxious that he sweated like rain.

can only do their best and obey the fate of heaven......

I hope that when I arrive, Liang Zheng, this kid, will still have a life, otherwise under Jiuquan in the future, what face will I use to face his father.

Bluestone Pass.

Jigong Mountain is a must-pass place to Yongning County.

It was originally a large area of fertile land, but after the yellow water burst the embankment a few years ago, it scattered eastward, and now the water has receded, but all that remains is an endless and uninhabited beach.

It's just a little different today.

As soon as the sky was bright, there were dense shadows of people at the bluestone pass. When they got closer, it turned out to be Liang Zheng with his fully armed generals, each carrying a musket on their shoulders, and the snow-bright barrel was imprinted with the first rays of the morning sun, shining with dazzling light.

"Young master, there's something I really don't understand." Seeing that Liang Zheng signaled the team to stop, he kept looking around, and finally couldn't help Su Qinghe asked, "You want to choose this place to fight the horse bandits of the Red Lady?" ”

Liang Zheng didn't answer, looked around, and walked back after a while, stretched out his hand to build a pergola, and looked at it, but saw that the mound was chasing the sky, withered grass, withered grass, and shambled in the spring breeze, and the broken eaves were dotted among them...... When Liang Zheng saw this, he couldn't help but smile slightly:

"Yes, this is it."

"But ......," Su Qinghe reminded, "the terrain here is open, which is the most conducive to cavalry, and the Red Lady's men are all horse bandits, so I'm afraid that if their horse team rushes, we will have to mess up the formation after practicing for a night, right?" ”

Originally, I thought it was just a small horizontal column and column exercise, but it was a breeze for these generals who were born in the army......

But Liang Zheng's requirements are uniform, to be dozens of people like one person, and from time to time to smash them with clods, gravel and the like, and ask everyone to hide, as if their bodies are not their own......

It's a bit harder.

However, the young master said: "I just want everyone to be able to load ammunition calmly even if the opponent's arrow comes over." Only in this way can the formation not be chaotic and the sacrifice can be minimized. Otherwise, the formation will be messed up, and it will be no different from stretching out your neck and waiting to be stabbed. ”

Fortunately, everyone was born in the army, and after a whole night of training, they were finally able to barely do this.

But this formation is really good, can it really defeat the cavalry of the horse bandits without much effort?

Su Qinghe didn't know, and seeing that Liang Zheng was still silent, he couldn't help but say again: "Don't you want to wait for them in the back of the stegosaurus?" It is also a necessary place, and the gap between the two mountains there, the terrain is wide in front and narrow in the back, and their formation is difficult to spread, which is more conducive to our foot fighting. ”

Liang Zheng shook his head slightly: "This place is indeed conducive to cavalry charges, but it is precisely because of this that those horse bandits are easy to be careless." ”

"This ......"

"Look at that draw." He pointed to a deep ditch in front of him, "It's clear from us at a glance." ”

"Exactly."

"But what about over there?"

"Hmm......"

"The terrain over there is higher than ours here, and it is close to 90 degrees of cross-section." Liang Zheng said, "I just went around and took a closer look, and behind the high ground on the opposite side is an anticline slope. ”

"Young Master, you mean?" This time, Su Qinghe finally reacted, "I can't see this draw from their side, so I ......"

"So I need you to take a team of people to the other side." Liang Zheng nodded approvingly, "Your task is to attract the attention of the horse bandits, and when they start to charge, immediately withdraw to line up." What will happen when the horse bandits see this draw, you think about it. ”

Su Qinghe suddenly realized, and secretly admired his young master in his heart.

The young master is now less than twenty years old, and he can be good at observing the terrain and cleverly setting traps according to local conditions......

I'm afraid that the master may not have such a ability back then.
