Chen Jialuo, who was riding on a horse and following the brigade, felt a burst of regret in his heart, why did I say that sentence? Isn't this looking for death? It's not the way to go on like this! He looked up at the artillery battalion in front of him and turned his attention to the artillery in the ranks. Most of the people and horses in the artillery battalion look a little familiar, and eight out of ten are the Red Flower Congregation who had taught them at the beginning, which is also a helpless thing, artillery is a technical branch, and familiarity with numbers, especially angular functions, is the basic requirement, and there is no one else who can meet this standard except for those who have been trained by Dai Zhen and Gao Zhisi!

At present, the Red Flower Society is equipped with a model of cannons, which are four-pounder guns, eight-pounder guns and twelve-pounder guns, and larger-caliber sixteen-pounder guns and even twelve-pounder guns are still under development. This was Pierre's suggestion, which was created in 1732 by Lieutenant General Jean-Florent de Vallière, then director of French artillery, and until 1730 the French field army used a wide variety of ammunition, manufactured in France or imported from abroad, and in a variety of calibers. Such an artillery ammunition system is a nightmare for all artillery logistics officers. Gun transport was another challenge, as cannons were often bulky. For example, a 12-pounder field cannon requires nine horses to tow, and sometimes even calves. It can be seen that these cannon wagons are not flexible and fast. Lieutenant General Varière streamlined the various and complex ammunition calibers and standardized the cannon and mortar barrels so that both ammunition and artillery could be manufactured in France.

The problems faced by France back then also existed in the Qing army, so the artillery battalion of the Red Flower Society can now almost be said to be the most advanced artillery team in China! At present, all kinds of artillery equipped with them belong to field artillery, which can basically keep up with the marching speed of infantry under the condition of using animal power. In the evening, the party came to a place ten miles away and set up camp, and the 1,000 men led by Chen Jialuo rested on the spot to prepare for tomorrow's battle. The other two teams were led by Huo Qingtong and Pierre respectively to move forward, and they were given a reserved place to block the retreat of the Evil Tiger Village before they could rest; Because they were on a secondary mission, they only had a handful of four-pounder guns with them, which allowed them to travel quite a bit faster.

After arriving at the predetermined location, Chen Jialuo issued an order to camp on the spot, and the officers and officers had already gone through the training and exercises of camping, and quickly completed the task with their subordinate soldiers in an orderly manner. It didn't take long for a well-defended makeshift barracks to be built. Smoke rose from the barracks, and the smell of the cooking soldiers made everyone salivate.

"Report to the head of the regiment, there is a person named Shi Shuangying outside the camp who asks to see him!" , I was just going to check the food of the soldiers. A sentry rushed over to report to Chen Jialuo!

"I'll go out and pick him up!" , Chen Jialuo raised his hand in return and followed the sentry to the gate of the camp, Shi Shuangying was surrounded by a group of soldiers who were eyeing him in the middle. Chen Jialuo hurriedly greeted him, "Brother Twelve hasn't seen you for more than a day, it's hard work!" ”

"The helmsman is a well-trained soldier!" Shi Shuangying has been lurking in the Evil Tiger Village these days, and at the same time, he has to deal with the internal affairs of the Red Flower Society, and there are fewer opportunities to go to the barracks, and even the military judge who should be in charge of himself has to be temporarily replaced, so that these sentinels who enlisted in the army later did not recognize him.

"If it weren't for the strict implementation of military law by the people left by the Twelfth Brother, these good soldiers would not have been trained!" After completing the formalities, Chen Jialuo affectionately took Shi Shuangying's arm and entered the barracks, "When the matter of the evil tiger village is resolved this time, the twelfth brother can return to the barracks to concentrate on serving as a military judge!" ”

"I'll talk about this later, I came here this time to bring the latest information from the Evil Tiger Village!". Shi Shuangying took out a stack of papers from his arms and handed it to Chen Jialuo, "I have already given the topographic map and troop distribution map of the Evil Tiger Village to Chief of Staff Huo, this is the latest personnel change!" There is also the inner response of the younger brother in the development of the village! I hope it can help you with this strategy! ”

Chen Jialuo was impressed by these words, and there were a lot more new words from his mouth than at the time of parting, it can be seen that Shi Shuangying also spent a lot of effort to learn new knowledge when he was in his own time, Chen Jialuo looked at the drawings, and there was no big change from the few copies sent before, it was still a few village owners who each led their cronies to defend one side, but the number of people was a little less than last time, Chen Jialuo pointed to the number on the paper and asked. "Why is that?"

"Chief helmsman of Qiqi, our army is out of the city with great momentum, and some clever bandits probably see that the evil tiger village can't fall well, so they run away with the soft! The little brother thought that there were more people running, but it would also save us some effort. Therefore it was not stopped! Shi Shuangying is still a zombie face that has not changed for thousands of years, and there is no trace of emotional fluctuation on his face even if it is the annunciation.

"Since the other party's situation has changed, then our plan should be adjusted accordingly, I will go and gather all the officers for a meeting, and at the meeting, the twelve brothers will introduce the latest changes in detail!" Chen Jialuo called the signal corps to gather the officers, and then began the last meeting before the war in the big tent.

As for the soldiers, after dinner, they returned to the barracks and began to recharge their energy to prepare for the first battle in their lives, Yang Dazhu is now the squad leader, I don't know if he has never rested so early or because of the tension of the battle, he lies on the bed and tosses and turns and can't sleep. was about to get up and go out to pee, but Li Youdi, the deputy squad leader next to him, got up before him.

This guy probably couldn't sleep, Yang Dazhu followed with a smile, walked outside the barracks, and asked softly, "Brother Dazhu, do you think we can win tomorrow?" I've heard that the evil tiger village is a murderer who doesn't blink an eye. ”

"If you disturb the morale of the army before the war, you will have to go to a military court!" , Yang Dazhu scolded in a low voice, and after speaking, he pointed to the headquarters where the lights were still on in the middle of the camp, "No matter how fierce they are, can they be more fierce than the instructor?" ”

"Yes!" , Li Youdi laughed self-deprecatingly, "Don't say that I was scolded by them, even when you heard the word instructor, my heart trembled." If compared to the instructors, those bandits don't seem to be nothing, Li Youdi made up his mind that he would have to behave well on the battlefield tomorrow. Last time I took the school marksmanship test, Yang Dazhu and Second Brother Pu were promoted to squad leaders because of their outstanding marksmanship, so that they couldn't raise their heads when they visited relatives, and they couldn't be left behind tomorrow.

Yang Dazhu was thinking about another question, what he called for the township to fight the evil tiger village was to fight the evil tiger village, if the evil tiger village was defeated tomorrow, wouldn't they have to go back to the hometown to farm? (To be continued.) )
