Chapter 742: Imperial Commander's Musket Battalion

Emperor Lu pressed the pause button, and when it came to June, military affairs and government affairs were really relaxed. So much so that he had time to pay attention to the development of the Zishui Arena and the progress of the Jarrah matter.

The former has become a cornucopia, and all the empty shops around it have been rented and sold at high prices. A large sum of money was recovered in the inner pocket, although it has not been fully recovered, but it has also recovered seventy-seven eighty-eight. The capital gains are perfect! The uninformed will think of it as a thriving town, attracting a lot of money every day.

At the same time, the name of the Jockey Club was also completely loud, not only Yidu, but also the merchants of the entire Northland looked at it with their eyes. In order to get a place to join the club, all of them have eight immortals across the sea to show their magical powers.

There is still time for these people, because the Club's expansion of membership is scheduled to be announced on August 15 every year.

Jala's tandem is also in full swing, and this person really has a bit of foreign wealth, while pulling the tiger skin fox and pretending to be a tiger to win people over, while looking for a gunman to fan the flames in the newspaper. It has only been a long time, and the ultra-high income of maritime trade and the ultra-high risk of maritime transportation have become one of the hot topics of discussion among the people.

In political affairs, Goryeo knelt down. The leaders of the three major lords, such as Li Ziqian, Jin Fushi, and Li Maosheng, have become the pillars of the Great Qi court. "The three major valves are so obedient?" That's something that no one wants. But it has created a mighty and unstoppable trend.

Of course, it is impossible for everyone on the peninsula to obediently bow down in the face of the edict of the landing emperor. Emperor Lu wanted to break their foundation and let a large number of nobles of the two classes move to the mainland, that is, many of the Li clan of Nainju, the Kim clan of Gyeongju and the Li clan of Naju wanted to rebel.

It's just that the three major families are still mostly smart people, and they know the truth that people have to bow their heads under the eaves. When Emperor Lu stretched out his hand and inserted it into Goryeo, the general trend of Goryeo was no longer in Goryeo.

Not to mention that Emperor Lu did not treat them badly. The two classes of nobles who were willing to migrate from Goryeo to the mainland were properly settled. Some of the declining two classes of nobles can stay on the peninsula and be taken in by the nascent government.

The reason for all this lies in the 'taming' of the peninsula, and compared to the South Vietnamese, which took the initiative to attack the mainland twice, the Goryeo sticks are cute today.

And the situation on the peninsula has also been roughly outlined, and the weight of the three families of Inju Lee, Gyeongju Kim, and Naju Lee has become dominant, not to mention that some of the power of the Goryeo royal family has come to annex, plus the power of the Haedong Governor's Office in the hands of Zhao Yan.

The fighting on the peninsula continues, but everything is under control.

And Hua Rong and Shi Wengong's counterattack against Emperor Tianzuo also went smoothly, and they were once forced to leave Baolian and gave up Bei'anzhou. From the west, General Lu also received news that the Uighurs of Gaochang and the Yellow Heads in the Western Regions were going to send envoys to meet Emperor Lu. The yellow-headed Uighurs were about to kneel, and Li Qianshun was about to be cornered, so he would have raised all his strength to attack the yellow-headed Uighurs while defending the Qi army.

This yellow-headed Uighur was originally a defeated subordinate of the Tanguts. It was originally a Uighur in Ganzhou, and after the decline of the Guiyi army, it basically controlled the Hexi Corridor in its hands with an independent attitude. It is commensurate with the five generations of government in the Central Plains and the Northern Song Dynasty, nephews and uncles, and the tribute envoys are very frequent. During the reign of Emperor Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty, the Uighurs of Ganzhou sent Cao Wantong to the Song Dynasty to pay tribute and establish an anti-party alliance with him. Since then, he has repeatedly attacked the party and dealt a heavy blow to it. However, in the 30 years of Hedong and 30 years in the west of Hexi, the power of the Dang Xiang grew stronger and stronger, while the Uighurs of Ganzhou gradually declined due to the lack of unified centralized power and the growth of separatist power, and finally in a surprise attack by the Dang Xiang, Ganzhou fell.

Most of the Ganzhou Uighurs, whose nest had been broken, fled to the west of the Green Mountains, that is, to the Gaochang Uighurs. The other retreated to the southwest, joining up with the Uighurs who had been stationed in Shazhou and Guazhou, and retreating to the west and south of Kua and Sha. This is the yellow-headed Uighur. The approximate site is the southwest of Gansu in later generations, where it meets the western regions of Qinghai-Tibet.

This place is too far away from the core area of the party members, and Li Yuanhao can't reach it, but now that Li Qianshun has arrived in Gua and Sha Prefectures, he can't wait to attack the west if he doesn't want to be chased by the Qi army.

The Qocho Uighurs were so large that Li Qianshun did not dare to start a war on his own, so he could only drop his knife on the weak yellow-headed Uighurs.

The latter sent envoys this time, mostly to include a request for surrender, so as to save their lives and live in peace.

Why didn't Lu Qian feel good? Both the military and political sides are so smooth, and the money is even more abundant, he feels that he is invincible now!

As long as he goes on year after year, with the size of China, all his thoughts will not come naturally? Perhaps after ten or twenty years, the Americas will not be very mysterious in the eyes of the Chinese.

Lu Qian could clearly feel the fact that when he figured out some problems, his nerves couldn't be tense anymore. It's just that he wants to be nervous, and he can't be nervous. It's like a billionaire can't have the hardships and hard work of getting up at three or four o'clock in the morning to pick up stalls. And this 'inertia' is afraid that it will become deeper and deeper with time.

Perhaps this is the reason why many emperors are wise and martial in their prime, but they are not guaranteed in their later years.

Everything went well in the outer court, and there were two more pregnant women in the harem. Emperor Lu did his best many times, and finally it was done, and he was pregnant first, and then Zhao Fujin, who had not been in the palace for a long time, also became pregnant. The former is not mentioned, but the latter is quite surprising.

When the news spread, a story inevitably spread. The Zhao family finally has a good way out.

The new dynasty has a prince with the blood of the Zhao family, and Emperor Lu can't be ruthless to the Zhao family, right? In that case, the great artist is not free to advance and retreat.

The Qi army attacked Shu, he could resist it, and if he couldn't resist it, he would surrender! Emperor Lu can still kill his own cheap man, has he? No one will take Zhao Jiu's death seriously, Zhao Jiu died of illness, is this a fact recognized by great artists?

As soon as this news spread, it attracted the approval of countless people. In fact, the impression of a great artist is so bad, he himself is not a fierce and would rather die.

When the Security Department reported to Lu Qian, he knew that the folk rumors were boiling, and he actually thought of the great artist so badly.

But such remarks can be spontaneously spread among the people, which can also show Zhao Song's bad reputation. Comparing the big artist to Emperor Lu, the gap between the timid rabbit and the king of the mountains and forests is the end.

Seeing that it was almost dawn, the wings were covered by dark clouds. There was a thunderclap and the rain fell, and in a moment, the rain became heavier and heavier, and the raindrops fell like beads.

Lu Qian was awakened by the thunder, looked at Cheng Wan'er, who was still sleeping next to him, closed his eyes, and continued to sleep. Although he can't go to school today.

After the initial training in March, the 500 musketeers of the Jeju New Barracks were now collectively transferred to the Imperial Army.

Emperor Lu originally wanted to train them, but now the musketeers do not have specific tactics, and the new battalion is also training them as crossbowmen. In fact, in terms of the performance of today's muskets, they are replacing the utility of crossbowmen.

To be precise, musketeers are not as good as crossbowmen. The musket is not as good as the crossbow in terms of range and accuracy, and its only two advantages are strong armor piercing and low cost.

Compared with the crossbow, the cost of the musket makes anyone who can't bear to give it up, let alone the subsequent series of maintenance costs.

And the armor-piercing power is extremely great, not inferior to the divine arm bow. But the cost of a divine arm bow can make a dozen, or even dozens of muskets. And the selection of materials for crossbowmen is far stricter than that of musketeers. The latter can be done by everyone, even women. The former must be strong, otherwise you won't be able to pull the crossbow.

The rain fell for two days, and after the rain stopped, Emperor Lu still hurried to the pro-military academy. Seeing the five hundred soldiers with high morale, one by one, with their heads held high, looking at him with eyes full of admiration, a sense of awkwardness swelled in his heart.

The armored soldiers with muskets, even if they are wearing cotton armor, the overall sales are similar, but it still makes Emperor Lu feel spicy.

But in this day and age, it must be like this, cotton armor is lightweight, looks thin, and can protect against arrows, it is necessary. If only the armorless musketeers were made in later generations, people would be sent to death.

Western armies in the firearms age have left their armor behind because they have guns on both sides, and even the strongest armor will become vulnerable to guns. Therefore they gave up their armor on both sides. But now the threat that the musketeers of the Qi army have to deal with is only the bow and crossbow, and the armor is not useless, but greatly useful.

It turns out that the musketeers trained in the boot camp according to the training method of crossbowmen are still good-looking.

The formation is neat, the formation change is accurate and fast, whether it is a three-stage attack or an arbitrary attack, the game is very slippery. The rate of fire can also be maintained at a fairly high level.

"It's really powerful." The puppets that had been hit by the volleys of musketeers were already 'riddled with holes'. Emperor Lu inserted his hand into the eye-catching eye on the puppet, and his fingers couldn't go in seven or eight.

At first glance, the penetration power may not be as good as that of a crossbow, but don't forget that there is a big difference between a sharp crossbow and a round buckshot.

"What do you think?" He asked Lin Chong and the others.

"It's really powerful. However, the reloading of the musket was complicated, and if there was a mistake during the period, it would be difficult to fire. If this is not well trained, on the battlefield, the musketeers are afraid and timid, and it may be difficult to make achievements in a hurry. ”

This kind of step was simplified by Emperor Lu several times. If it was an arquebus in history, I am afraid that just a reload can make people lose confidence.

Lin Chong's voice fell, and the rest of the generals all nodded. Looking at the loading of muskets, they thought of artillery. Whether three or four artillery pieces can be fired in battle is the key to judging the combat effectiveness of an artillery unit.

"Then it's up to training." (https:)
