Emphasis should be placed on gradual and all-round development in military training. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

First, practice the martial arts, courage, ears, eyes, hands and feet of each individual soldier, so that everyone can clearly distinguish the golden drum, flag, and order, and master the weapons in their hands, and then practice the synthesis of the camp formation. When training the battalion formation, a single branch of the army will first be trained, and then all arms will be trained together.

Finally, we will conduct a test drill in accordance with the requirements of actual combat to enhance the overall combat capability of the armed forces.

In particular, pulling from a familiar environment to an unfamiliar environment can greatly enhance the comprehensive combat capability of the military and enhance their ability to survive in the field.

There are so many benefits that cannot be obtained on paper, so during February, Yang He pulled the soldiers to the field for many exercises, and all kinds of terrain were selected.

On this day, Yang He led his troops to the field for drills, but he did not go far today, only less than ten miles away from the northeast corner of Xin'anzhuang, at the foot of a mountain called Baishan, and there was a small village called Baishan Village nearby.

Two days ago, there had been a rain, the ground was wet, the grass was verdant, standing in the mountain bag, the weeds on the field were undulating, endless, like a verdant grassland, a lonely village stood a few miles away, as if it was about to be submerged in the dense "grassland".

Barren grass even the sky is like a grassland, this late Ming Dynasty, the land abandonment rate is too high, hundreds of miles of uninhabited, thousands of miles of uninhabited is also a common thing, although the north shore is a little better, but to restore the dense population, I am afraid it will take years of hard work to do.

"Time flies so fast, in a blink of an eye, it will be the end of February of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, and it will be almost the end of March if it is replaced by the solar calendar."

Yang He thought silently in his heart, he unconsciously glanced at the extreme west, his eyes seemed to cross thousands of miles, and saw the place of Luyi and Bozhou, but according to history, at this time, Luyi and Bozhou had fallen, and his teacher Ji Maoxun was dead, but he couldn't do anything, there was no way.

He felt a faint guilt and pain in his heart, and he could only force it.

He settled down and looked back at the bottom of the mountain, at this time Yang He stood on the top of the mountain that was not high, writing "Suining Lian Zongyang", the number one belt, a three-foot-high flag hunting sound, a stout flag in hand, next to the trumpeter and drummer.

Zhang Songtao, a Chinese officer, and Chen Qiuao, the captain of the guards, stood beside them, and then there were guards, grenadiers, medical teams, and baggage teams.

Yang He looked at it for a while, his eyes were full of greenery, and the hillside was full of soldiers, all of them deliberately scattered, sitting or standing, and they were all chaotic and out of formation.

He looked at Zhang Songtao beside him, like himself, he was also fully armed, with iron helmets and iron armor, an eight-petal hat and an iron-tipped helmet on his head, a throat guard, his neck was full of fine broken armor leaves, and the pieces of iron armor on his body were painted with red paint.

He wore a robe around his waist, a long knife hanging from his belt, a heavy club in his hand, and a red cloak, bright red as blood.

He was originally stout with thick hands and feet, and his complexion was quite dark, not like a scholar, but more like a strong peasant man, but at this time, the iron helmet and iron armor cloak showed his power and maturity.

Yang He looked at it, and this stout man also looked at it, with a solemn look on his face.

Yang He suddenly ordered: "Blow the trumpet and assemble, let the soldiers line up quickly!" ”

As a Chinese military officer, Zhang Songtao wanted to convey and repeat Yang He's orders and instructions at any time, and he immediately shouted: "Blow a long trumpet, assemble, and set up a line." ”

The trumpeter next to him kept paying attention, and at this time, he picked up his horn and blew it hard.

Whenever the trumpet blows a long sound, it is called the sound of a swan, and all the soldiers must assemble and set up a team.

The sound of the loud swans spread all over the mountains, the trumpet spread, and immediately like a hornet's nest was pierced, and there was a commotion under the mountain, so I heard Minister Yang and Han Daxia roaring and shouting: "Hurry, quickly erect the general flag, and let all teams line up according to the flag." ”

There are also the roaring voices of the first and second deputy generals, Yang Qianzong and Luo Xianjue: "Quickly, the captains of each team, the movements are fast, within sixty breaths, the team must be lined up......"

Both of them are loud and good-looking, especially Luo Xianjue, after Mi Dagu was transferred to Jiaoshanzhuang, he was promoted to the deputy general of the second president, because the other deputy general Zhang Chugong was busy beating the armor, he became the only deputy under Han Daxia.

At this time, he worked even harder, and as soon as he heard the trumpet, he immediately jumped up and shouted, and commanded the various formations in the headquarters.

The drummer on the mountain hurriedly beats the drum, and the two drummers below strike in harmony with each other, forming a rhythmic, rapid "dong dong" sound.

The footsteps up and down the mountain were mixed, sandwiched by the roaring orders of the officers, the soldiers quickly assembled in formation, Yang He looked at the hourglass, the fine sand slowly flowed down, and the time passed second by second.

This drill was a test of the speed of the sergeants.

In battlefield battles, the speed of the formation is very important, especially when facing cavalry.

According to the speed of the war horse, run quickly, you can run through ten meters in a second, and it does not take a minute to run through a mile of distance.

He looked at the hourglass, and after more than forty seconds, there was still a commotion down the mountain.

However, the two general teams have been quickly assembled and lined up according to the general flags and team flags, still with the firearms team in front, the killer team in the back, Minister Yang on the left, and Han Daxia on the right.

Yang He's complexion is a little gloomy, fighting in the field, talking about a dignified array, fighting in arrays, encountering the enemy in the field, as long as the formation is placed, then it is not afraid, with the courage of the Liao army, when their cavalry meets the Song army in the ocean, they are talking about the formation without fighting.

If you want to fight, you have to gnaw hard bones.

Sure enough, there are benefits to pulling exercises, and this kind of array drill Yang He has also been carried out many times.

Now his command has been reduced from the initial rush, and the formation of one hundred and twenty breaths cannot be set up, to less than sixty breaths. With the sentry cavalry, it can give early warning two or three miles away, and under normal circumstances, it will not encounter ambush raids in the field.

Chen Qiuao stood beside Yang He, he looked solemnly at the bottom of the mountain, and he was unconsciously relieved at this time.

To be honest, brothers, he doesn't want to hit the butts of Minister Yang, Han Daxia and others, although Yang Xianggong gave an order, he was only responsible for the execution, but he didn't look up and looked down, and it was always embarrassing for the brothers and brothers to be beaten.

Just like Minister Yang was beaten with ten military sticks that day, although he was fine soon afterwards, he also had a cold face for several days in the middle, grinning his teeth, which made Chen Qiuao feel a little guilty.

Of course, guilt is guilty, Yang Xianggong gave an order, and he still did not hesitate to carry it out.

In February, these rehearsals, the first and second general generals, deputy generals, now except for Zhang Chugong who is busy in the village all day, the rest of the ministers, Han Daxia, Han Guan'er, Yang Qianzong, Luo Xianjue, which person's butt he hasn't seen?

Like Zhang Songtao, Chen Qiuao also wore an iron helmet and iron armor red cloak at this time.

Then he held a shield in his left hand and a knife in his right, and in the javelin bag behind him, there were five sharp javelins.

Behind him, nineteen ironclad soldiers stood solemnly, all of them with iron helmets and cloaks, armor leaves and cold light, and the deputy Wang Dayi of the inner team, Lei Li stood at the front, holding big sticks, big swords and shields, all thick and heavy.

This is Yang He's three-in-one team of guards, assaults, and military law, including Chen Qiuao, a total of twenty people.

Now there are only all of them well-equipped iron helmets and iron armor in the village, and the rest of the people in the village have only a few generals and deputy generals have fine iron armor, a total of 28 pairs of iron armor in the village, and then some people have iron cotton armor.

No way, the armor manufacturing of this era is so slow, especially the iron armor.

After the craftsmen of Xin'anzhuang were grouped, even Zhang Chugong and Zhang Zhujing, there were only six blacksmiths in the armory workshop, even if fine iron materials were used in the making, it would only take three days to make a pair of iron armor, and it would be almost ten pairs a month, which was amazingly slow.

However, if you change to iron-inlaid cotton armor, you can make 20 pairs a month.

Considering that the battle would soon be carried out, Yang He slightly transferred the craftsmen, and this month the manpower for making firearms was reduced, and the manpower for making armor was increased, so the results of the February Quartermaster Institute were 50 handcuffs and 20 pairs of armor.

There are eight pairs of inner iron armor and twelve pairs of iron-inlaid cotton armor.

Connected to the original twenty pairs of iron armor, the current Xin'anzhuang armor is Yang He, Zhang Songtao, six chief and deputy generals, and Chen Qiuao's three-in-one team.

Twelve pairs of iron-inlaid cotton armor are equipped with Zeng Youyu, Ling Zhanyun, Ninth Master Qian Zhongyong, Qian Likui, Qian Sanniang, and Li Ruwan, and the remaining six pairs of iron-inlaid cotton armor are equipped with several brave people from the sentinel team and cavalry team.

Pei Pochuan himself has cotton armor, which he has saved, but his original cotton armor has a red appearance, and when he is in the sentry team, the color of this cloth has changed slightly, and it has been replaced with a gray and black cloak.

The team under the mountain, the Cui Lu grenadier team on the mountain, the Li Jiale medical team, and the Sheng Santang baggage team lined up solemnly, lined up behind Chen Qiu Ao's ironclad soldiers, none of them were wearing armor, all of them wore winter felt cloaks and mandarin duck battle jackets.

The color of the inner soldiers is exposed to green, and the exposed color of the officers of the first rank is red, which is quite conspicuous.

They are subordinate to the Chinese army and do not have their own flag for the time being.

Yang He looked at the hourglass, and suddenly he stretched out his hand and made a gesture.

Zhang Songtao shouted: "Stop the drum, blow the trumpet!" ”

The rapid drumming of the mountain up and down the mountain immediately stopped, and the trumpeter blew the sound of a swan again.

The soldiers under the mountain had already formed a strict formation, and when they heard the voice, they shouted in unison: "Tiger! ”

The voice was majestic, powerful, and a majesty permeated.

Then the teams are arranged in arrays according to the teams, and the queues continue to extend to both sides.

At this time, of course, it is impossible to line up closely, in a general formation, the infantry occupies two steps per person, and the horses take four steps, so that there is room for display, otherwise the big knife will be cut with a split, and if you don't stand wide, you will cut down the comrades next to you.

However, under the command of Yang He, the breech of the firearms soldiers can be loaded on the spot, the spearmen stab forward, and the sword and shield soldiers are mainly blocked, the combat space does not need to be so large, the queue can be lined up more closely, and it is enough for ordinary people to occupy one step.

Seeing that the soldiers quickly set up a queue to form an offensive and defensive formation, Yang He nodded, his subordinates, ears and eyes, hands and feet, banners, orders, and golden drums are all proficient, and the joint training of the battalion formation is also quite effective, and what is lacking now is stronger actual combat.

He commanded: "Answer the flag!" ”

Zhang Songtao passed the general order, and the burly standard-bearer raised his banner high and pointed to Minister Yang's side.

Obviously, Minister Yang always paid attention to the flag of the Chinese army on the mountain, and immediately raised the general flag high, waved the flag in response, and then his subordinates, the first team, the second team, the third team, and the fourth team, raised their own team flags in response.

The flag of the Chinese army went to the second general point of Han Daxia, the same, first the general flag, and then the general flag waved, and the red flag waved and waved.

Looking at the flags waving under the mountain, Yang He felt a burst of excitement in his heart, there are not many flags in his army at the moment, and there are only ten large and small flags in the two generals, but it is certain that there will be more flags under his command in the future, increasing to hundreds, thousands, and converging into a sea of flags.

Then the flag was raised, and the ugliness disappeared.

In the end, the banner of the Chinese army went to a certain field under the mountain, a little farther away.

"Great-grandfather, I have answered the flag."

The creek was overgrown with weeds that almost overwhelmed people's heads, and the banks of the river were covered with unknown wildflowers, and they were wet everywhere.

By an unknown small river about a mile away from Baishan, there were ten people riding on war horses, one of them holding a red flag with the word "Yang", which was larger than the ordinary team flag, but smaller than the general flag of the first and second generals.

There was once a horse flag hand, he was dressed as a sentinel, wearing a gray felt hat, gray iron-inlaid cotton armor, and a black cloak.

Then on his left arm, there was a cavalry side card, wrapped in leather, also gray.

Looking at the knight behind him, it was all the same.

Of course, this refers only to the color, because this month's village produced twelve pairs of iron-inlaid cotton armor, and there were ten sentinel teams, except for Pei Pochuan who had cotton armor himself, the rest were only him, Ling Zhanyun, and one sentry member was assigned cotton armor, and the rest were just wearing gray robes.

But a gray felt hat, a black cloak, and a gray side card are all available to everyone.

They stood still in ten horses, each holding the reins in one hand, hiding in the grass, just staring at the movement of the mountain bag.

However, according to the content of this exercise, he hid by the river as an ambush.

They stared at the mountain bag, especially Ling Zhanyun's sharp eyes, and suddenly reminded them loudly.

Zeng Youyu hurriedly looked, and sure enough, the banner of the Chinese army on the top of the mountain was pointing towards him from afar.

He hurriedly said, "Quick, the sentry team should answer the flag." ”

The standard-bearer beside him hurriedly raised the red flag and shook it in response, looking at the flag of the Chinese army and pointing to another place, Zeng Youyu breathed a sigh of relief, subconsciously touched his buttocks, and said: "Xiaoyunzi, it's good that you have sharp eyes, otherwise my old Zeng's ass will bloom again." ”

Pei Pochuan said: "Xianggong governs the army strictly, and my Xin'anzhuang is strictly disciplined, which is a good thing." ”

Zeng Yougan smiled and said, "Of course." ”

However, he watched Pei Pochuan subconsciously touch his buttocks, obviously this matter was not as easy as Pei Pochuan said.

However, it was Yang Xianggong who ruled the army strictly, and he was beaten with a military stick, and Pei Pochuan and Ling Zhanyun, as the deputy of the team, were also affected and suffered by the same military stick.

This month, they were beaten five times with sticks, and they were beaten five times.

At this time, the two of them were holding the reins in one hand, gray felt, cotton armor, black cloak, Pei Pochuan held a horse lance, Ling Zhanyun held a hook sickle, in addition to the horse step bow and arrow, the two also had a cowhide holster around their waists, and a Xin'an handcuff was obliquely inserted in the middle, showing murderous aura in the heroic force.

Looking at everyone in the sentry team, this is the case, and there are even two handcuffs in one encounter.

However, most of the sentinels were archers recruited from the north bank, and they had a hand under the horse, but most of them had never ridden a horse before, let alone ridden a horse to chop, so except for Pei Pochuan and Ling Zhanyun, they were not even equipped with sabers and horse bows.

However, this month's production of fifty handguns, each of them has a one, they can't ride and shoot, but they still have the ability to play on a horse, or trot to play a gun.

After being assigned the handcuffs, everyone in the sentry team was overjoyed, who didn't like this kind of handcuffs that could hit three shots in a row?

You can also light the fire by yourself, you don't need a fire rope, even Pei Pochuan and Ling Zhanyun, who can ride and shoot, are happy, and they can't put it down when they get the handcuff.

The captain had a talent for riding a horse with both hands and firing a bow left and right, so he was given two handguns.

At this time, he wore the left and right holsters, and each inserted a new handcuff, he deliberately did not hide it in the cloak, exposing the handle of the gun, and others saw it, and they were always envious.

Now there are 60 people in the cavalry team, and only Qian Sanniang and Li Ruwan are treated the same as him.

These two women, who are also very talented in this area, are even more outrageous, they do not stand still, but ride their horses like flying, and they shoot their bows left and right on the back of a galloping horse, and they play with both hands, and their heads are very high.

This ability, even the ninth master Qian Zhongyong does not have.

Although he can shoot the bow left and right when he rides and shoots, he is not as good as archery, and he has to pull down the hammer with his right hand to shoot, and he has to pull down the hammer with his left hand at the same time, and he has to pull down the hammer with his right hand at the same time, which is a bit of a dual-purpose taste.

Jiu Ye tried, but in the end he was in a hurry, and he forgot whether the hammer was pulled down or not, so he could only give up and honestly equip a handcuff.

At this time, Zeng Yu turned his eyes and looked at a place a mile away on the right, where the red flag was being raised, but it was the cavalry of the Ninth Master over there, and they, like the sentinel team, were hiding there as ambushes according to the content of this exercise.

Zeng Youyu looked at it for a while, with a complicated look in his eyes, but he still had a smile on his face.

He touched his handgun and said: "I have the ninth master in Xin'anzhuang to join, and the strength of this horse team has increased greatly, but our sentry team, now there is only Xiao Chuanzi, Xiao Yunzi can chop and ride and shoot...... We can't compare to the cavalry, but with handcuffs, it's a way out. You have to remember that in addition to equestrianism, you must practice more in the future, so as not to make a bad mistake, and in the future, this sentry team will be gone, and they will all be merged into the cavalry. ”

Everyone in the sentry team looked ashamed and anxious.

Although everyone has the current equestrian skills, and most of them are taught by the "teacher" Jiu Ye and others, but they are considered the old people in the village, and the sentinel team was also established first.

Team deputy Pei Pochuan and Ling Zhanyun also bit their lower lipes.

How to say that they are the deputy of the team, this enjoyment of treatment is not the same, in the sentinel team, there is also the glory of the sentinel team, although they have taught the team members equestrian, but the overall effect is not obvious, the cavalry team came, the sentinel team was compared in all aspects.

If the captain has said something, it seems that the way out for the sentinel team is indeed a handcuff.

After Jiu Ye and the others came, they conducted systematic equestrian training for the sentinel team they had encountered.

Although Zeng Youyu and others have suffered a lot in the past month or so, it has also made them equestrian great.

For example, Jiu Ye and others are quite gradual, in order to solve the problems of poor riding skills and insufficient leg strength of each member of the sentry team, Jiu Ye trained them, but first came to a riding "trilogy", first leveling the ground, then riding the wall, and finally getting on the horse.

Even if you have encountered it, everyone should do a horseback riding squat crotch shape on the flat ground of the horse farm every day, and hold a few bricks or half a bucket of water on the inner thigh to carry out the clamping training on the inner thigh, so that the horse can ride freely and maintain balance in the future.

After leg training, it is to ride on the wall, that is, to ride on the wall to practice the strength of the horse between the legs, build an earthen wall as high as the horse's back, the top is low and wide like the horse's back, and the person rides on the wall, and he has to shake left and right, and he must train his balance ability.

A training session on the wall often takes about two hours, which is very hard, and after someone comes down from the wall, often the legs are not closed.

Finally, when riding a horse, the reins are held in one hand, not both hands, because it is necessary to maintain such riding habits and lay a good foundation for the other hand to dance with a knife and a gun in the future.

Generally, the cavalry also holds the reins in one hand and the reins in both hands, which is the horse racing of later generations, and the cavalry of the horse team is rare.

When I saw someone holding the reins in both hands, they were basically rookies.

Behind the horses, the sentinels were also required to hang their feet in the air, not to put them on the stirrups, and then to hold only the reins in their hands, not to hold the saddle, not to grab the horse's mane and walk slowly.

What's worse is that those dart masters suddenly give you a whip from behind, and the horse will trot, and everyone will sway left and right, yelling is common, and it is also common to fall off the horse, but fortunately, the sand of the horse farm is very soft, and you will not be hurt if you fall.

Of course, it is common for everyone's buttocks to be worn out, and the inside of their legs is worn out, and there are often many people, and for most of the month, everyone's crotch is wet, and the wrapped gauze is full of coagulated blood.

Jiu Ye and others also trained the sentry team to ride a horse, that is, when riding a horse, the body should be rhythmically unsaddled with the ups and downs of the horse's hips, otherwise it will not take long to "shovel" the buttocks, making your buttocks painful and even wearing out the skin.

Generally speaking, after such systematic training, after more than a month, everyone in the sentry team can now run like a gallop and ride in the wilderness, at least on the horse field, and the terrain is not very complicated, and they are no longer as frightened as before.

However, in general, except for a few people, the sentry team is still in the second stage of equestrianism, and they are still at the beginning, and it is still early for the integration of men and horses, let alone riding horses and chopping.

Riding and shooting what, not to mention.

The cavalry team and others will not stand still, and in terms of equestrianism, it will be too difficult for the sentinel team to catch up.

If you want not to be eliminated, the only way is to find another way.

……

Zeng Youyu said a few words with a smile, and nodded secretly when he saw everyone's eager expressions.

Suddenly, he listened attentively and said, "Okay, Mingjin has withdrawn his troops, let's all go over." ”

At that moment, everyone grabbed the spurs and started slowly, they were all wearing riding boots, a kind of black fluffed soft boots, the texture was very good, made of high-quality cowhide, and the workmanship, quality, and style were all excellent.

There was an encounter in front, the standard-bearer was beside him, and everyone followed behind, lined up in two rows, forming a queue according to the "distance of one horse", which was the key to riding.

If it is too far away, it will not form a queue, but it should not be too close, too close, for example, the mouth of a horse in the back touches the butt of the horse in front, and the hip of the horse in front is violated, it is easy to kick the horse behind it.

It's not good if it's too far or too close, and the most suitable is a horse distance.

The rider behind sees the hind hooves of a horse in front of him through his horse's ears, which is the "horse distance", this distance, if the rider in front of him accidentally falls off the horse, he can also make the rear horse have room to react and not hurt people.

This is also the teaching of Jiu Ye and others, and other idlers do not know, it is all the accumulation of perennial experience bit by bit.

Zeng Youyu and the others walked slowly for a while, and began to ride their horses to accelerate, although Pei Pochuan and Ling Zhanyun were superb in equestrianism, they could only follow the horse team and keep the queue with everyone.

This is the army, discipline first, the brave must not advance, and the cowardly must not retreat.

"Treading ......"

They continued to speed up and ran towards the mountain, each of them with his black cloak raised, forming two black lines of black and gray on the verdant meadow.

At this time, the sound of the hoofs of the heavy horses of the listeners sounded, rhythmically muffled, forming a rapid and rhythmic rumble.

Then there were bursts of joy in the heavy hoof, and I couldn't help but look at it.

I saw dozens of cavalry running not far on the right, all of them extremely skillful, they held the reins in one hand, and their bodies rose and fell rhythmically on their horses.

They rode their horses and galloped wildly, and they were very natural on the way, not deliberately keeping a "one-horse distance", and soon ran to the front of the sentinel team, only to see a red flag in it, and they were very encouraged.

Look at the snail-like speed of his sentry team, and look at the side of the ninth master, especially the two women, each of whom controls the horses with waist and leg strength, and their hands are free, each holding a handcuff, and they rushed through like a gust of wind.

Zeng Youyu seemed to see that Qian Sanniang, and when he rushed over, he glanced at himself lightly.

Then he held the gun in both hands, like the wind, leaving himself with a fluttering cloak figure.

Zeng Youyu coughed and thought, "This woman ...... Fortunately, it wasn't me who took a fancy to me. ”
