On March 11, in the open space outside Xining, the grass began to spit out two tender sprouts, and from a distance, it was already endless, and when I got closer, the leaves had just turned from light yellow to green, and the curls on both sides had not yet fully opened.

The soldiers of the 500th household are ruthlessly trampling on this grass, Zhou Bin is even more personally on the front line, personally directing the drill, today is the last morning of the gunners' training, in the afternoon the whole battalion rests, pack up the bags, tomorrow will set off, the north expedition to Dabanshan.

"Da Da Da ......"

Two hundred war horses rushed towards the location of the gunners, although the war horses were uncontrolled, but on the back of each war horse, a baffle was tied, half a man high, as if the cavalry was attacking.

Zhou Bin's eyes were firmly fixed on these war horses, and when the front war horse had crossed the death line of a hundred steps, his right hand waved down violently, and the herald suddenly shouted: "First row gunner, shoot!" ”

"Bang, bang, bang......"

The bullets whizzed, with a strong wind to the baffle on the horse's back, and then made a slight crashing sound.

Unlike the straw men who have water in the middle of the horse, the baffle is not strong, and under the impact of bullets, they fall backwards one after another, lying on the horse's rump.

But the horses, accustomed to the fire, did not stop, and continued to gallop forward at almost the same speed.

By the time the second row of gunners had fired their bullets, there were not many shutters left on the horseback, and the third row of gunners fired another wave, with only sporadic baffles still standing on the horseback.

Zhou Bin ordered the soldiers to gather the horses and check the baffles on the horses' backs one by one.

Although the baffle is not too compact on the horse's back, it should not be too loose, otherwise the horse will not shoot when sprinting, and the baffle will fall by itself, and this fire can only be mastered by the soldiers themselves.

After a while, the soldiers reported the data to Zhou Bin: one hundred and eighty-seven baffles had bullet holes, including those with multiple bullets, two baffles did not fall down, and there were 14 other baffles, although they fell, but there were no bullet marks.

Zhou Bin was quite satisfied with such a result.

There is no bullet baffle, maybe the war horse fell down on its own in the process of running, and the soldiers complained, although there were two baffles that did not fall and did not hit, if they really did not face the impact of the cavalry, if there were only two cavalry left, who would dare to rush forward?

On the death line of 100 steps, it is necessary not only to protect the war horse, but also to kill and injure the "enemy" on horseback, which is more difficult than the actual battle, and when facing the cavalry on the battlefield, the gunners do not have to shoot the soldiers, and the larger war horses are also the goal of the soldiers.

Drill training is drill training, and there is always a certain gap between it and actual combat.

On a real battlefield, if you face a cavalry attacking, the situation will be very different, with cavalry sitting on horseback, the load is too large, and the horse's speed will be reduced; Once a war horse is shot and falls, it may collide with a fellow war horse, at least reducing the speed of the sprint, of course, the war horse controlled by the rider will also be more flexible than now.

More importantly, on the battlefield, when facing death, soldiers on both sides will have fear, for infantry, it may affect the rate of fire and accuracy, and for the cavalry who is beaten, once there is confusion, the speed will decrease, and the time in the rifle range will increase, and it will be easier to be shot.

The Mongolian war horses were not like the war horses of the Xining army, which had not been trained in firearms, and if they were frightened, they scattered and fled......

Zhou Bin did not want data, but to practice tactics, in front of the high-speed galloping horses, the gunners must be calm, through the data to get a one-sided battle, but also to improve the confidence of the soldiers, reduce their fear of cavalry.

Shooting is a delicate job, if the soldier has various ideas in his heart, the accuracy of the rifle will be lowered, and once the momentum of the cavalry rises, or even cross the death line of the gunner's shooting, it will be a disaster for the gunner.

While the 500th household was training outside the city, Li Zicheng summoned Liang Wencheng and Song Wen in the hall of the official office.

“…… Wencheng, Xining Mansion will be handed over to you, no matter what difficulties there are, let the people farm on time, once the season is missed, this year's food will be nervous! ”

"Rest assured, food is not only your life# root, but also my baby!"

Li Zicheng set his eyes on Song Wen again, and said: "Use the existing rifles to train the soldiers as soon as possible, and the soldiers who do not have rifles for the time being cannot relax the intensity of the training, in addition, the various city gates of Xining must also be taken over!" ”

"Yes, sir!" Song Wen bowed his hand, although he was ordered, but there was a flame burning in his eyes.

"Song Baihu saw others going on the expedition, his heart itched, right?" Li Zicheng stood up, paced two steps, came to Song Wen, patted him twice on the shoulder, and said, "As long as the safety of Xining is guaranteed, it is also a military achievement!" ”

"Thank you, sir!" Song Wen was originally slightly disappointed, it was better to defend Xining alone than to be angry on the battlefield, even if it was a military achievement, it was not as easy as coming up on the battlefield.

However, he knew that the army sent by the lord this time to recruit and suppress the cavalry of the Maili cadres, and his subordinates were all infantry, if there was no guard of the city wall, let alone military merits, it would be good not to be beaten all over the ground looking for teeth.

The only thing to do now is to let the soldiers step up their rifle training, and the next time they have the opportunity to fight, the 700th household will have the capital to fight the cavalry.

After sending Liang Wencheng and Song Wen away, Li Zicheng returned to the Houya and began to say goodbye to his wives and concubines.

“…… Gui Ying, if you leave Xining this time, this home will be handed over to you! ”

Hearing that Li Zicheng was going to go on the expedition again, Gao Guiying was enthusiastic, according to her temperament, she couldn't wait to pick up a gun and get on the horse, fight side by side with Zicheng, and come out of the battlefield with her husband and wife, besides, Zicheng also needs a woman to take care of her.

However, now that she is the wife, Xining's family needs her to take care of it, the family is harmonious and peaceful, and she can fight in the front without fetters, if she wants to follow the army, she should let Sun Mengjie and Chen Qiudie go.

"Zicheng rest assured, I can't go with you, the sisters at home, I will definitely take care of it!" Saying this, a wave of nausea suddenly rushed in his heart, and he hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands and rushed out of the hall.

Li Zicheng's brows curved into two arcs and looked at Song Yulian.

Song Yulian hesitated and said, "Big lady...... The maid doesn't know, don't worry, if the eldest lady is pregnant, the maid and others will take care of the eldest lady! ”

Li Zicheng nodded, his eyes fell on Sun Mengjie and Chen Qiudie's arms, "Jie'er, Die'er, you have to take care of the children, if you don't have enough manpower, you can buy a few maids first!" ”

"There is Xiaomei Xiaolan at home, and the two children have their own nurses, there is no need for outsiders for the time being, let's wait for Mr. to return triumphantly!"
