(Damn, this update chapter is going to run to the Internet café, tossing people!) ）

The number of soldiers has more than doubled, the original four platoons have now reached more than 100 people, although the number of companies in the modern army is the same, but there is still a big distance from the number of companies in the early modern army, Xiao Tianjian thought about it for a while, and finally decided to upgrade the four platoons to four companies, and did not complicate it, and directly named each company after one, two, three, four, and then expanded to continue to make up, and the Xingtian Army also officially began to use the company as a unit to organize these soldiers under his hand.

It's just that because of the limited strength now, the establishment of the company can only be temporarily lacking, each company temporarily has a hundred people, plus the guards of the firehead soldiers and officers, each company is temporarily established as one hundred and ten people, and a company is temporarily organized into two platoons, which are also directly called one row and two platoons, and when there is an opportunity to supplement them in the future, it will be expanded into a standard company of 250 people, among the four companies, three are still pikeman companies, and Company A is a company of sword and card players led by Yan Chongxi, among which Huang Shengqiang's original firecracker is also incorporated into Yan Chongxi's company. Who made him only have more than 30 guns of all kinds that can be used at the moment! If he wants to get more musketeers, he doesn't have the skills to do it right now! As for the small amount of three-eyed guns that were captured, Xiao Tianjian didn't bother to use them at all, the javelin under his hand was more powerful than the three-eyed gun, and he couldn't use it anymore, so the three-eyed guns were all destroyed by his order, and they were all used to create three-edged thorns.

The other three companies are the B Company led by Zhao Erdonkey, the C Company led by Feng Gouzi, and the Ding Company led by Li Xuanzhu, all of which are still pikemen companies, and the war pursues the output of their own firepower to the enemy, and transmits the casualties to the locality, and the best situation at the moment is that Xiao Tianjian can equip his Xingtian Army with as many muskets as possible, so that it can form a dense fire suppression on the battlefield, but unfortunately Xiao Tianjian has not been able to obtain the ability to equip his subordinates with a large number of muskets until now.

Therefore, before the musket has not become the main long-range weapon of his Xingtian Army, the javelin cannot be completely abandoned for the time being, and at present, the javelin is not weak against the enemy of the general level, so as an important part of the firepower output, the javelin still cannot be banned, so one of the platoons in each company is also equipped with a javelin, which can provide them with emergency short- and medium-distance fire suppression, and also reduce the dependence on bows and arrows, so that the Xingtian Army can quickly have a certain degree of medium and short-range firepower output.

As for the remaining fifty people in the soldiers, Xiao Tianjian handed over Shi Ran's scout team to act as scouts, all of them were equipped with war horses, and a small-scale cavalry team was formed.

It's a pity that most of the cavalry under Shi Ran are from peasant backgrounds, and it is true that they can ride horses, but they are very lacking in experience in horse combat, so Xiao Tianjian didn't expect them to have strong combat effectiveness in a short period of time now, but at least they can be used as scouts, after all, cavalry is more expensive than infantry equipment, and war horses consume more food than an infantry, plus war horses are not much, he can only do this step temporarily.

As for the archers, after this battle, Xiao Tianjian got a lot of bows and arrows, but after choosing, after eliminating those inferior bows and some soft bows and hunting bows, there was not much left, but all the remaining more than 30 bows belonged to the infantry bows equipped in the army, and the quality was quite good, and they belonged to the hard bows of more than nine buckets, which were very rare on the market, and their value even exceeded the value of muskets, so Yan Chongxi was very greedy.

Originally, Xiao Tianjian still wanted to completely eliminate the bow in the army, but this time he had to adopt the advice of his subordinates, after all, his musket was still too few, and he couldn't get more muskets in a short time, so the bow weapon couldn't be completely abandoned for the time being, and these thirty bows were finally asked by Yan Chongxi and Shi Ran, and some new veterans who could shoot arrows were selected and given to them, which could still play a certain role when necessary.

After this reorganization was completed, the new barracks were in vain, and only a dozen or so soldiers who had been transferred to the new barracks as temporary instructors remained, and they were clamoring to return to the barracks to do their work.

But Xiao Tianjian immediately vetoed their request: "Liu Bao! The new barracks cannot be dispersed! You're going to be a boot camp instructor in the future! Now you go to the outcasts and recruit new soldiers for me, and the men of the poles that have just been cast will also be incorporated into the new barracks, and you will be under your command!

In the future, all those who enter the barracks must undergo your basic training in the new barracks now, and they can only be incorporated into the barracks after they are qualified! What you do is important, don't feel useless!

To put it bluntly, you are the blood-forming machine of the war barracks, and you can't be a little slack! As for the combat exploits, you don't have to worry, as long as you train the recruits well, you will have a share of the combat exploits! Doing this well is very important for our Xingtian Army! Don't be sloppy! ”

Liu Bao originally thought that this time he would be able to return to the barracks, at least this time he could be a platoon commander, and the instructors under him could at least be a squad leader or something like that, but he didn't expect Xiao Tianjian to let them go back, and still let them be responsible for training recruits, which was a little reluctant, but he didn't dare to say no, thinking about Xiao Tianjian's words, he felt that it made sense, if the soldiers in the combat team needed to be replenished in the future, they would just add people who had not undergone any training. It is bound to cause a serious decline in the combat effectiveness of the combat team, and if it is not done well, it will cause chaos, and this new barracks is really useful.

Although I did this thing, I couldn't do it like the clan team, and I was a little unhappy to go into battle and rush to the front line! But Xiao Tianjian also said that as long as there are military exploits, they are indispensable, so why is he unwilling?

So Liu Bao immediately replied loudly: "Yes!" Got the palm of the plate! The small ones must do their best! ”

After Liu Bao received the order, he just turned around and left, and before Xiao Tianjian could do anything else, he saw a young man running to his side, and slammed his right hand into a fist on his chest, giving him a standard military salute in the Heavenly Army.

"Oh? Yaoben! Why don't you stay in the stockade and come to me? The expression on Xiao Tianjian's face immediately softened a lot, and he smiled and lowered his head to ask the young man.

"Back to the plate! Although Yaoben is young, he doesn't want to eat and drink for nothing like this, I wait for a few little brothers to nominate me to find you today, and I want to implore the boss to include us in the battle team! I hope to say yes! "It was none other than Liu Yaoben, who was chatting with Lu Rongxuan that night.

Lu Rongxuan promised Liu Yaoben that he would help him lobby Xiao Tianjian and let Xiao Tianjian accept Liu Yaoben as his adopted son, and in the past two days, Lu Rongxuan had found Xiao Tianjian privately and told Xiao Tianjian about this matter in private.

Xiao Tianjian originally liked Liu Yaoben very much, but he didn't refuse, so he agreed, because he also knew that Liu Yaoben's father was also one of his old subordinates, and when he attacked Fanjiabao last time, he unfortunately died in front of the battle, making Liu Yaoben an orphan, so he had the responsibility to take care of this little guy, and he agreed without refusing.
