Chapter 14: New Tactics from Far Away

Except for the two old men of Guoxing'a, Saishan'a, Xiande, and Guiwu, as well as the blacksmiths and carpenters transferred from the Jiangnan battalion, everyone had to participate in military training. The sniper team also has daily training and vigilance tasks, and Fuquan can only stay with a few people in Goxinga's side. The beauty of training "recruits" naturally fell into the hands of Zhang Yi and Han Yu. Except for Fuquan, who had to follow Guoxing'a, the guard squad was divided into two teams of seven and took turns training recruits. Zhang Yi and Han Yu even rushed to make a batch of rattan overnight, preparing to leave an impressive military training for recruits.

Guo Xing'a, who was afraid that the guard squad would not be able to suppress the table, deliberately participated in military training together the next day. Drink with Han Yu, run together, and do queue training together. He showed everyone his excellent military literacy and the rationality of various regulations. After all, Master Zuo Ling has already gone down in person, so it's not easy for others to say anything.

However, although there was Guoxing's pressure formation, the first day of military training almost became an execution ground, and the scene was full of afterimages of rattan flying. Not to mention ordinary flagmen, even Fengsheng'a and other officers have been beaten. The cautious Acton was hit five times, the slippery Xishou was hit four times, the skilled Mushun was hit three times, and the brutal Hatan was almost beaten into a QR code.

Guo Xinga had to take advantage of the rest time to shout the classic slogans of "heroes come out from under the sticks" and "sweat more in peacetime, and bleed less in wartime". However, Han Yu's rattan is picked too often, and Guo Xing'a is a little skeptical that this kid has abusive tendencies. After a day of military training, the entire training ground can be described as full of sorrow.

After the training, in order not to mutiny tomorrow, Guo Xing'a urgently gave everyone a music lesson. Classic revolutionary songs such as unity is strength almost came to a big show. The elder Zuo Ling suddenly changed his career to sing a small song, which was a good diversion to the unlucky guys. QR code Hatan grinned at Guo Xing'a and smirked, and Xiande, who came to visit, was also impressed by Guo Xing's hand.

The team, who learned a few songs, quickly forgot about the pain on their bodies. People who don't have a massive information platform are simple after all, and Guoxing's means of fooling are not high, and a few easy-to-understand songs have made these unlucky people enter the battle again. After finishing the training, the bannermen had eaten enough, sang enough songs, and went back to the camp to rest under the supervision of the officers. Guo Xinga changed his career to become a musician, and when he returned to his room, he spread out his pen and paper and wrote down all the revolutionary songs and war songs that he could remember. When there is nothing, Guo Xing'a can only rely on the charm of music to fight his subordinates.

In order to set a military song for the team, Guo Xing'a almost didn't sleep all night. Ye Guo's voice is not good, and many high-pitched singers can't sing, so what they can sing are some low-pitched love songs. It is obviously inappropriate to sing "the soft evening breeze blows gently" in the army, but the music library is insufficient, and Guoxinga has no music box after all. As a former citizen of the People's Republic of China, Guoxinga, who grew up under the red flag, was reluctant to change the "March of the Volunteers". Guo Xing'a, who thought about it repeatedly, aimed at "The Internationale", lyrics like "Don't rely on the Immortal Emperor", which were easy to copy in the Qing Dynasty, and he didn't have that level of rewriting lyrics. Fortunately, Guo Xing'a, who has four years of college leisure, has found a suitable goal, "Hell Roaring Elegy". This song is the tune of "The Internationale", and the lyrics have almost changed, Guo Xinga only needs to replace "tribe" with "Eight Banners", and then replace words like "Hearthstone" with words such as "lust" and "comfort" that the flag can understand.

After a night of hard work in Goxinga, when the military training began the next day, the 11th leader of the Eight Banners of the Gyeonggi Garrison with Blue Flags had his own military song. The children of the Eight Banners, who usually sing a song, learn songs faster than the speed of military training. Guo Xing'a sang it a few times, and everyone was basically able to follow along. Especially Mu Shun's cronies Duosan, this guy was born with a good voice, not only learning fast. And he actually sang the * part out of the rock fan, which can almost be compared to the original. Guoxing A made a decision, and all the military songs were sung by Duosan in the future. And set the rule, every day at the beginning and end of military training in the future, the military song "Hell Roaring Elegy" must be collectively sung. During the break and meal, each row also sang songs such as "Unity is Strength".

Guo Xing'a trained with everyone for five days before he was finally able to get out. In addition to Han Yu's good rattan picking, he is also quite brainy. After all, he grew up in this environment, and Han Yu knew these bannermen better than Guo Xing'a. A variety of tips have been developed to allow the flagmen to better receive modern military training. Guo Xing'a didn't understand the living habits of the flagmen, so he could only push according to his own wishes. Han Yu knew more, and replaced many of the requirements in the military training with a way that the flagmen could understand.

"Bowls, chopsticks, bowls, bowls, chopsticks, bowls, ......" Listening to the loud slogans of the troops, Guo Xing'a once had a trance that he was in a canteen next door, which was the difference between Guo Xing'a and Han Yu. Guo Xing'a emphasized the left and right, but unfortunately the flag people did not distinguish between the left and right, and Guo Xing'a could only pick up a wooden stick to solve the problem. Han Yu used the chopsticks in his right hand and the bowl in his left hand, a way that everyone could understand, so that the flag people could distinguish between left and right.

"Leader, are you still worried about the morale of the army?" Seeing that Guo Xing'a raised his head and listened to the slogans of the troops, his brows furrowed again, and Saishan'a asked with concern.

"It's still a bit suspenseful!" Guo Xing'a casually shook the barrel of the gun that had been sawn in his hand.

"The morale of the army is stable, the morale is greatly boosted, you don't have to worry!" Xiande seems to have forgotten his previous position.

"Will it be that easy?" Goxinga scratched his scalp.

It's hard to say whether its people can fight or not, but the ancestral motto of "don't donate your life to state affairs, and be ashamed to die under the window" still remembers. Poor is a little poor, but aren't all the belongings of our banner people just war guys and lumps of flesh all over their bodies! Before, I let the long hair be blinded, and everyone couldn't find the north. Your words that day were loud! Its people are not afraid of death, as long as they know why they die. Follow you, and everyone has got their spirit back. The training is a little harder, but everyone can learn the songs sung by the leaders. I'm an old man, too, "The blood is already boiling, and I want to fight for honor!" "Besides, a few of our brothers have been arrested by you, what are they complaining about? Hahaha......" Xiande smiled with some kindness.

"A few are tired...... "Saishan'a is nothing, but the two old men, Xiande and Guiwu, were caught by themselves to saw the barrel of the gun, and Guo Xing'a was indeed a little embarrassed.

"You're welcome! To put it mildly, a few of us are idle, and there is no pigeon cricket here. Doing some chores with you, comfortable! Stronger than before! Guiwu's words piggybacked on Guoxing's cheap father.

Guo Xing'a didn't have time to be polite to a few old men, and the seventeen-member miscellaneous team also participated in military training. To improve the armament, Guoxing, who is not enough manpower, can only arrest the idle people. Carpenters and blacksmiths were busy with the technical work of refitting firearms and forging iron. Chores such as sawing the barrel and sharpening the knife had to be done by Guo Xing'a with a few old men.

"The foundation has some shapes, so I can just carry a little bit every day in the future. Let's have a meeting tonight! It's time to get real. What do you think? Guo Xing'a said in his mouth, but the work in his hands did not stop.

"When it comes to military training, you must be the leader!" Xiande several people well understood Goxinga's hypocritical diplomatic rhetoric.

"Fuquan, you can go for a while, officers above the squad leader, and there will be a meeting in the main hall after dinner tonight."

"Huh!" Fuquan pressed the body of Guoxing Asaw's spear and did not get up to salute.

After dinner, it was already completely dark, and the main hall was full of more than thirty chairs, and the few people in the back row were almost on the same level as the eighteen Arhats. Guoxing, who walked into the main hall, was very satisfied with the results of the military training these days, at least the officers stood up and saluted in a uniform manner.

"I've been practicing for a few days, how do you feel?" Guoxinga is as pleasant as ever.

"I didn't get used to it for the first two days, and I didn't know where to put my hands. After a few days, I understood, and the brothers below also knew where to put their hands. What Zuo Ling wants is an order to prohibit it, and what he practices is that everyone is the same. At present, the brothers have improved, but it will take some time to satisfy the leader. Feng Sheng'a wanted to be the first to speak, but he hesitated, and still gave the opportunity to Mu Shun with his eyes, and Mu Shun also said quite truthfully.

"Hmmm! If you're in a hurry, take your time! Do the brethren have any requirements? Goxinga nodded.

"This ......" Mu Shun didn't expect to be able to make a request.

"Zuo Ling, after practicing, can we beat Han Yu's kid?" Hatan is simple.

"Hatan, don't be rude!" Mu Shun hurriedly drank Hatan.

"Hahaha...... okay! If you don't go to the army one day, I'll give you the opportunity to fight him alone. "Guo Xinga knows that the banner people are soldiers all their lives.

"Okay, Xie Zuoling! But Zuo Ling, when will we not be soldiers! Hatan fantasized about beating Han Yu.

"This fool ......," the crowd laughed.

"Alright, alright! Everyone, be quiet! Saling has something to say! "Sezanne is a dutiful steward.

"Everyone knows that we practice the basics every day. Although our practice is still average at the moment, the war is urgent, and there is not so much time for us, so let's practice to perfection! There is a look first, and the rest can only be practiced slowly every day. From tomorrow onwards, I think everyone will start to practice some serious tactics, real fighting techniques on the battlefield. Goxinga stopped and looked at the crowd.

"I don't know what tactics Zuo Ling wants us to perform, is it according to the "New Book of Discipline and Effectiveness" or according to our old Eight Banners?" Fengsheng Ah has a little ink in his stomach.

"The regimental training is mostly based on the "New Book of Discipline and Effectiveness", but the effect is average against the long hair!" Guiwu knows a little bit about regimental training and armament.

"No, my method of warfare is not from any book. If I have to say where it came from, it should be a new tactic from afar! "Guo Xing'a can't admit that he has crossed over.

"New Tactics ......" For Guoxing'a, everyone is a little surprised.

"I can't say a word or two, let's come one by one! Mu Daxia, how are the preparations for the cavalry? Goxinga began to comb one by one.

"Back to the leader, my subordinates have selected one hundred and twenty horses that can be used as war horses. According to the orders of the leader, the bannermen who led the team and were good at riding have all been arranged into the third and fourth rows of the first company. Mu Shun replied.

"Hmmm! So be it! Starting tomorrow, in addition to the daily basic training, you take the three and four rows with you and start training riding in the open space behind the village. Let everyone and the war horse get familiar with it first, and properly practice the actions such as stabbing right away. In three days, I'll go over and teach you tactical moves. As he spoke, he kept rubbing his fingers under his nose.

"Huh!" Mu Shun got up and answered.

"How did you arrange the platoon?" Guo Xing'a fully delegated the command below the company level to Mu Shun.

"The platoon ordered by the leader, the subordinates felt that the first row and the second platoon were more suitable. The leader of the first row, Hatan, was personally appointed by the leader, and the leader knew him. The second platoon leader Duosan is about the same as Hatan, and he is also a bloody man. In the first and second rows, they were all the people they picked, most of them were thick arms and thighs, and it was just right to attack the fortifications. When Mu Shun said that the length of the row set by the leader himself, Hatan raised his head proudly.

"Hmmm! Good! I've designed two new guys for the platoon, let's take a look! Goxinga stood up and showed a modified carrying gun in front of everyone.

The three-meter-long barrel of the gun was sawn by Guo Xing'a, and the grip was also changed a lot, and it looked as if Guo Xing'a was holding a very thick stick. Guo Xing'a took out the fixed ammunition specially prepared for the modification of the gun, which was the size of a child's sandbag, and there were more than 20 pieces of lead bullet iron sand. When Guo Xing'a had made up the ammunition, Fuquan had already placed the four straw men outside the main hall.

"Hartan, you can shoot it! Let's take a look at the effect! Goxinga waved at the crowd.

"Huh!" Hatan took the modified gun and raised the gun, and everyone left their seats and gathered around.

"Boom" Hatan waited for everyone to surround him and pulled the trigger.

"Good fellows!" Hatan's whole body shook from the recoil of the modified gun.

The gun that Hatan fired in the temple was nearly fifteen meters away from the straw man. Three of the four straw figures had been blown into two and flew out, and the remaining one had been beaten to the ground, and even the door frame of the main hall gate had been broken in a few pieces.

"That's amazing! ......" everyone sighed at the power of the modified gun. In fact, the power of carrying a gun is very huge, during an opium war, there is a record of the Qing army raising a gun at the British army of 12 people, wounding and killing 11 of them. However, the gun is cumbersome, and most people operate together to fire at a long distance. No one had the opportunity to feel the power of the gun at such a close distance.

"This thing is called *, and in the future, the first and second platoons of the company will mainly be equipped with waist knives and this kind of *. We had forty guns in stock, and I and the craftsmen worked harder to get two of the brothers in the first and second rows when the enemy was in the air. "Listening to Guo Xing'a say that this powerful * will only be used by his own platoon in the future, Ha He and Duo San are excited like children who have received sugar.

"This*, the power at close range is good, but the accuracy is a little worse, and it is only suitable for close-range combat. When charging into battle, it is best to fire at the crowd, and meeting on a narrow road is also a sharp weapon to save your life and kill the enemy, but the two armies can only waste ammunition when they shoot at each other, and this shot cannot be fired too far. The excited Hatan and Duosan were poured a basin of cold water on the head of Guoxing Adang.

"And this thing, mainly for the platoon. Hartan you try to sink or not, how far do you think you can throw. Goxinga took out a large black iron lump and handed it to Hatan.

"Hollow! Throw thirty steps! Hartan, who took the iron lump, felt that the iron lump was a little light.

"What's inside." In modern times, it is generally only about one catty, and in order to ensure the power, Guoxinga has more than five catties of pounds. Guo Xing'a has always been worried that his subordinates can't throw it, and he was relieved to see that Hatan was not pressing his hands at all.

There were not enough materials in Guoxing's to make a fire pipe, so it was necessary to ignite it with an open flame. However, a wooden letter tube is installed, so it will not fall directly after landing. *Unlike the iron lump that you see on the outside, the inside is actually a hollow small wooden barrel. After stuffing* and sealing it with a thick iron sheet wrapped in lead bullets, there is still a lot of room for improvement in the technology. But hanging this thing, Hatan and Duosan's attacking platoon is a bit of a grenadier. And after it came out, Guo Xing'a once took Fuquan to find a place where no one was able to try, there were no people and animals within five meters, and the farthest fragment could kill and injure up to fifteen meters. Not only can the wrapped lead bullet injure people, but also because the quality is not up to par, after the explosion, the wooden core of the core and the wrapped iron sheet can play a role in killing and injuring fragments. Fragments of unknown origin are flying all over the sky! also counted the blessings of the battlefield, after seeing the effect of *, the little face turned pale.

"This thing is called *, it has to be lit and thrown out, it is very powerful, so I won't try it today." Guoxing Ah was really afraid that Hatan would make two mistakes, so he ordered one to play in the main hall. If you really order a * in the main hall, the management of the leader will be wiped out.

"Earthquake Thunder?" Mu Shun was a little demolitional.

"Almost! It's an improved version! It's powerful, and it won't be destroyed, so it's more reliable! Guo Xinga didn't care.

"Weapons determine the tactics of battle, and in the future, the company will be mainly responsible for the attack mission of the assistant commander during the battle. The third and fourth platoons were cavalry, responsible for raiding, charging, and chasing down the remnants of the enemy. The first and second platoons are mainly melee firearms, and are mainly responsible for attacking and melee dogfights. Guo Xing'a explained the positioning of the company.

"Huh!" All the officers of the company below Mu Shun stood up and bowed in response.

"Leader, then we ......" Feng Sheng'a was a little anxious, the first company was a cavalry and new equipment, and the task of attacking was assigned to the first company, what should the second company do!

"Don't rush! On the side of the second company, it will not be mixed like the first company, the second company is all infantry, and there is no need for excess equipment, one person, one gun, one bayonet, and a few more per person* will be counted as a full life. "Compared with the first company, Guo Xing's distribution to the second company is a bit simple.

"Ahh ......" The squad leader below didn't dare to speak, and Feng Sheng'a couldn't sit still.

"The positioning of the first company is a special branch of the army, and it fights for special situations. The second company was the normal infantry, firing muskets at long distances and bayonets at close range. You can do it and overcome difficulties. How to say it! The first company is prominent at one point, and the second company is an all-rounder, who can do anything. It's like my guard squad. In the future, the main task of the second company is to form the defensive core of the main formation, and at the same time provide cover for the attack of the first company. Goxinga explained.

"Huh!" All the officers of the second company under Fengsheng Ah also stood up and bowed down to answer the order, just like the first company. The people who originally felt that it was unevenly distributed, but because of the two sentences "like my guard squad" and "leading the defense core of the main formation", they instantly found a balance.

"Specific training tasks, three and four platoons for equestrian training, one platoon and two platoons, training for new firearms, and hand-to-hand combat. These two pieces, Mu Daxia depends on you. "Guo Xing'a still admires Mu Shun in terms of martial arts.

"Huh! Rest assured! "Mu Shun has the pride unique to a hero.

"The second company conducts training in firearms shooting and bayonet fighting, as well as training in specific environments for offense and defense. This training is still in charge of the guard squad, and the specific tactics are guided by me. "Erlian has a kind of pride in the disciples of Guoxing's own disciples.

"In the future, every night all the officers will come here for training, and I will give lessons to everyone. All of you here are the skeletons of our leaders, and you must hold them up first, so that the brothers below can stand. ”
