After the grain and medical battalion, it is the main battle camp of the Liaodong Army, at this time Gao Shun's command is already full, more than 60,000 soldiers are in place, in addition to Hao Zhao's cavalry battalion, there are still ten battalions of soldiers are still in practice, Liu Yi next is the ordnance battalion with Xiangyang cannon and Chongche well railing bed crossbow and other offensive and defensive weapons! With the number of princes in the world is getting smaller and smaller, the number of wars and the scene is increasing, Liu Yi used 340,000 troops to enter Jizhou, Yuan Shao also had 300,000 soldiers, plus Cao Cao's reinforcements, Jizhou alone gathered nearly 800,000 horses, this scale has surpassed the 18th princes to ask for Dong.

In the subsequent battle of Sizhou, Liu Yi's division and Han Zhang's combined army was nearly 500,000, in addition to Liu Bei Sun Ce's battle of Yangzhou, Cao Cao Liu Biao's battle of Jingzhou were all fought by hundreds of thousands of troops at every turn, at this time Liu Yi already had more than 700,000 soldiers after all the units of the Yan army were full, and it is foreseeable that the scale of the army in the future battle of Yanzhou will surpass the previous time!

Thinking of the battle of the wolf, in the face of more than 100,000 troops of the Huns, Langsheng's whole army was only more than 60,000 people, that is, the number of today's first army, and it is an indisputable fact that the subsequent operations have developed in depth and depth of the large corps, and under this premise, the comprehensive combat strength of each army is extremely important. As the eight main forces of Yan County, the Liaodong Army must have the strength to be able to take charge of itself, which requires the cooperation between various arms of the army, and the existence of technical arms.

In the past, when it came to siege, the Vermilion Bird Battalion would be Liu Yi's first choice, and in the future operations, each army must have the ability to independently undertake attacking the opponent's fortified city, which is also the standard set by the King of Yan for the commanders, and the Yan army has a great advantage here, the existence of the equipment makes them always able to stabilize the opponent in the advanced degree of ordnance, and with the continuous improvement of ordnance, they will also play a pivotal role in the future war.

When Liu Yi arrived at the camp, the ordnance battalion was practicing the accuracy of the Xiangyang cannon firing, two hundred steps away there were targets erected with huge wooden boards, and there were circles of target rings drawn on them, and the stones fired by the ten Xiangyang cannons used by the ordnance battalion for the drill not only had to knock down those targets, but more importantly, they could hit the bullseye as much as possible! This training method was summed up by Liu Yi and Li Tieniu in countless practical exercises, and has been written down and distributed to the whole army, and listed in the ordnance drill outline, which is the model for the training of the ordnance battalions of various armies!

The captain of the Liaodong Army Ordnance Battalion is named Qin Hu Zi Yuanzhi, originally Sima in the Vermilion Bird Battalion, and the head of the ordnance battalion of the rest of the armies is also from the Suzaku Battalion, as the earliest existing unit in the Yan Army that uses equipment as the main combat force, in this reorganization, the Suzaku Battalion took on the heavy responsibility of transporting talents to the rest of the armies, and with Qin Hu coming, there were dozens of soldiers in the Liaodong Army, many of whom were familiar with the shooters of the giant bombardment cannon, and it would not be difficult to operate the Xiangyang cannon.

For the arrival of King Yan, the soldiers of the ordnance battalion also showed the demeanor of a strong army in addition to excitement, they will not receive any factors to disturb during the exercise, and after asking Gao Shun for instructions and getting his instructions to continue the exercise, the firing of the Xiangyang cannon is also carried out as usual, but because of the arrival of the King of Yan, the soldiers are more concentrated, and if they can't hit the target at this time, they will blame themselves more in their hearts! And Liu Yi is very appreciative of such a performance under his command, a well-trained army should be as calm as water, and concentration is a necessary quality for a strong army!

Perhaps it was Liu Yi's arrival that made the soldiers more focused, the stone bullets fired by the ten Xiangyang cannons all hit the target without exception and the impact points were all within the target ring, and the heavy wooden planks in the distance made a loud cracking sound, which shows that the Xiangyang cannon still has a good power within two hundred steps, although it is inferior to the giant bombardment cannon, the accuracy of the shooting is greatly improved, the wooden board is only a kind of Xiangyang cannon target, and the non-commissioned officers of the ordnance battalion have also made higher requirements for the drill outline. At this time, there are many soldiers who are stacking rings with sandbags one by one at a hundred and fifty paces away, and the stone projectiles fired must fall into the rings to be qualified, which is obviously much more difficult than hitting the planks two hundred steps away, but when the soldiers can master it proficiently, they will be more accurate in the future battles against the enemy's city head!

Nowadays, the stones used for firing have been beaten into balls by the soldiers, and the weight ranges from one hundred and fifty catties to thirty catties, and the heavy object box used as the firing power of the Xiangyang cannon can be adjusted according to the height of the landing and the weight of the loaded weight. The ordnance battalions in each army have a certain amount of stone bullets in reserve, but most of them are used for drills, these stone bullets are extremely heavy, and transportation will become a problem in wartime, so they will never carry too many of this stone bullets, and the rest will have to be made from local materials, at most a little processing!

Compared with the stone bullets used in drills, the stones taken from the spot are much more irregular, and the impact on accuracy when shooting will also be great, so the non-commissioned officers of the ordnance battalion have to process the collected stones, and the most important link is to practice archery. The purpose of this wave of drills is to allow the soldiers responsible for firing to accurately hit the target with stone bullets, and then they have to practice using those irregular stones to achieve the same effect, Qin Hu's requirement for this is that by the end of the year, all the soldiers responsible for launching must be able to accurately achieve such an effect, in the fierce siege war, the soldiers of the ordnance battalion have no time to transform those stones made of local materials, starting from actual combat, and conducting drills in the actual combat environment is also a requirement of the drill outline!

Accompanied by Gao Shun Hao Zhao, Liu Yi watched the whole process of the ordnance battalion with great interest, in addition to the requirements of shooting accuracy and power, Qin Hu's detailed grasp is also very good, single shots, continuous shots have a specific time limit, the non-commissioned officers operating the Xiangyang cannon are also divided into four groups, one group is responsible for firing, one group is adjusting the height and weight of the heavy box, one group is specially used to communicate with the infantry in the language of the flag, and the last group is responsible for guarding the safety of the first three groups of soldiers, and all this was also arranged by him in the exercise, I can see that Liu Yi and Li Tieniu are all stunned!

It wasn't until a set of drill procedures was completed that Qin Hu led the whole battalion of soldiers to see King Yan, Liu Yi comforted him and then left Li Tieniu to communicate with him and led the crowd away, after all, he still has a lot to see today, I believe that after in-depth communication between these two professionals, there will be more effective methods for the training methods of the ordnance battalions of various armies and armouries, but with what I saw in front of him today, Liu Yi has further expectations for the performance of the ordnance battalion in the Battle of Yanzhou!

Compared with the progress of the ordnance battalion, the other battalions have already completed the basic exercises and entered the stage of actual combat drills, and a team of soldiers can be seen sweating and killing at any time on the school field, and the battle of 100 people and 1,000 people between the Ganning Flying Tiger Army and Xu Huang Longxiang Army has been introduced into the usual training of the Liaodong Army, except that the weapons used are all wooden sticks, everything else is consistent with the actual combat, Liu Yi has long said that he sweats more in peacetime and sheds less blood in wartime, and the fierce eyes of the soldiers on the field are really treated as enemy soldiers, not only those who fought with sticks, but also those who were entangled on the ground and crawled endlessly, and that concentration didn't even notice the arrival of King Yan!

Liu Yi didn't bother much about this, just silently watched on the sidelines for a while and then went to the next barracks, rich experience in the battle formation allowed him to see whether the soldiers on the field were full of spirit and spirit with just a few glances, such a drill made him very satisfied, after a round of inspection, he praised Gao Shun even more, such an inspection is too late to make arrangements in advance anyway, and with Liu Yi's understanding of the general, he will never do such superficial things!

It was already dusk when he returned to Gao Shun's main camp after this big circle, Jing Fang wanted to invite King Yan to eat in the account, but he didn't know that Liu Yi walked directly to the school field, and when he came to the weapon rack, he picked up two wooden sticks used in the practice of ordinary soldiers, and quickly threw one to Hao Zhao's hand, and at the same time made a beckoning defensive gesture to him, everyone knew that King Yan was going to test the martial arts of his beloved disciples, and his blood dragon halberd method was only taught to two people, that is, Hao Zhao and Liu Xin, even Liu Huan was not taught! Among them, the essence of the blood dragon six strikes Hao Zhao won the first three blows, Liu Xin is four blows, it is not that Liu Yi favors one over the other, it is really that he has not seen his lover for a long time, after trying his martial arts today, he will teach all the essence of the halberd method as appropriate, which was decided before coming.

Hao Zhao took the long stick and suddenly his face was solemn, and after taking off the armor, he came to stand in front of the master, and everyone, especially Gao Shun's relatives, saw that they were all surrounded by him, including those battalion captains who came to meet King Yan after the end of the exercise, Liu Yi has had fewer and fewer opportunities to personally shoot in person in recent years, and his majestic posture on the battlefield is more just in the minds of those veterans and generals. In an instant, the playground in the main camp was crowded!

"Zhao'er, both the teacher and your third uncle have taught you that you have to be distracted when you fight against the enemy, at this time, there is only the opponent in front of you and no master, although show your full strength to let Gu see how you have progressed in the past few years!" Hao Zhao's face before meeting was still respectful, Liu Yi said coldly, this is not the time to show the love of master and apprentice, he has to see Hao Zhao's true skills! He knew in his heart that he respected his disciples, and this remark was intended to dispel his worries.

"No!" When Hao Zhao heard this, he bowed first, and when he raised his head again, there was a determined look in his eyes, and a sense of fighting spirit came out spontaneously, few people can understand Liu Yi's true strength better than him, and fighting with his mentor with all his strength is also the best way to test his progress over the years!

Feeling the battle intent emanating from Hao Zhao's body, Liu Yi nodded slightly, and the look in his eyes became cold at this time, the beloved disciple had obviously made great progress, and this momentum alone also made him have a fighting intent! At this time, Hao Zhao no longer hesitated, and the wooden stick attacked Liu Yi's chest with great momentum, the Blood Dragon Halberd Method is considered by many people to be the strongest offensive in the world, and its first priority is the indomitable momentum, once the shot is endless, until the enemy in front of him is completely knocked down!

Out of consideration for the martial arts of his beloved apprentices, Liu Yi used all the defensive when he swung his long stick to meet him, and at this time his martial arts had roughly reached the realm of sending and receiving at will, both offensive and defensive were mellow and natural. The people watching the battle saw that the two figures were constantly wandering in the field, and the long sticks were danced into a light curtain in their hands, Hao Zhao's offensive was powerful and powerful, and the magic tricks made people feel like they were boiling, but the defensive position of King Yan was also very different from others, and one person and one stick faintly gave birth to the feeling of thousands of troops! Even between an attack and a defense, it can also give people the illusion that the two sides are attacking each other, defending and attacking, playing merit and defending, and now Liu Yi is already familiar with it!

The offensive and defensive rhythm of the two in the field is incomparable, and in a blink of an eye, forty rounds have passed, Hao Zhao is difficult to break Liu Yi's defense, but Yan Wang's occasional counterattack like an antelope hanging horns has been turned away by him with the momentum of losing both, at this time, Hao Zhao has completely entered a realm of selflessness in accordance with Liu Yi's words, and all he thinks about is how to defeat the strong enemy in front of him, and all this is also caused by Liu Yi's deliberate guidance, he knows more clearly how to draw out the strongest combat power of his beloved disciple!

When he reached the interval, he only heard Hao Zhao's long howl, like a dragon roaring and a tiger's roar, and the long stick in his hand was enveloped by him dancing out of a thousand stick shadows, and each stick shadow was so clear in the eyes of the onlookers, and even the parts of the stick body could be seen, and for a while, the phantom became a real move! This kind of trick is no stranger to the veterans who have seen King Yan's shot, the first blow of the six strikes of the blood dragon "Split Mountain", at this time in the hands of Hao Zhao, it does have the power of opening the mountain and cracking the stone!
