Lin Chong came over and asked Chao Gai, and said, "Chao Tuanlian, my affairs have not affected Jeju." ”

Chao Gai shook his head: "Camp Chief Lin made trouble in Tokyo and assassinated Gao Yu on the street, which has been widely spread by storytellers. Fortunately, the intelligence agencies in Tokyo City retreated quickly and were not implicated. Gao Yu should be able to guess that Jeju helped you, but there is no evidence on the surface. However, now Jeju is regarded as a big fat pig by others, and they all want to kill pigs and eat meat. ”

Lin Chong said with a smile: "Jeju soldiers are strong and strong, who is so short-sighted to treat our Jeju as a fat pig." ”

Chao Gai said: "Our Jeju is only a thousand sailors, three thousand and Ma Bu troops, and others naturally don't pay attention to them." Some time ago, the Lu family in Dengzhou robbed one of our silver mines in Yishui and killed dozens of soldiers guarding the silver mine. He also designed to frame Li Yun, who went to Dengzhou to file a complaint, and smashed our shop in the port to pieces. ”

It just so happened that Hua Lei and Tang Bin also heard it, and came over and said: "Chao Tuan Lian, how can the Lu family stop if they are so deceitful, I am willing to lead the troops to level the Lu family." ”

Chao Gai said: "Hatred must be remembered, and before tomorrow morning, I will announce the defeat of the silver mine in Yishui County to everyone, and tell everyone that war is not far away, and it may happen at any time today or tomorrow." As for how to deal with it, the military department is free to arrange it, and it will naturally issue orders when it is needed. ”

Everyone listened to the order, and before getting up early the next day for morning exercises, Lin Chong and Tang Bin informed the cavalry of the defeat of the silver mine in Yishui County. Hua Lei and Huang Yue also informed the infantry of the incident. The soldiers were filled with righteous indignation one by one, and they asked for war one after another, wanting to avenge the comrades who died in battle, and everyone turned their grief and anger into motivation, trained harder, and strived to train into elite soldiers as soon as possible.

Chao Gai lived in the barracks for four days, personally trained the cavalry for two days, and personally trained the infantry for two days, during which he ate and lived with the soldiers, and communicated with the soldiers.

Five days later, Chao Gai led his own troops and left the main barracks for another small barracks. Here are the 3,000 Danyang soldiers recruited by Zhu Wu before the Spring Festival, and Jiao Ting led the soldiers to train.

Just at lunchtime, Chao Gai arrived, and as soon as Chao Gai arrived, Jiao Ting was very happy.

ran to the door to greet him: "Brother, Wan Chun, Luo Yun, you are all okay." ”

Chao Gai said: "Look at your happiness, how about the New Year today?" ”

Jiao Ting said: "It's better for my brother to come than for the New Year, I haven't been with my brother during this time, so there's no danger." ”

Luo Yun said: "Don't worry, now there are two hundred soldiers who go far away, and my brother's security protection is quite in place, you didn't see that Pang Wanchun was transferred to his brother's side." ”

Chao Gai said: "After walking all the way, I haven't eaten yet, and I'm hungry, so I went to the room to eat." ”

Jiao Ting said: "Okay, I'll arrange it immediately." ”

Chao Gai brought about 200 people, and the room immediately added more dishes and food. The food of this battalion of Danyang soldiers is the same as that of other teams, it is very good food, vegetables, fish, meat, eggs. Everything but no milk.

Chao Gai carefully studied the Danyang soldiers, why Danyang produced elite soldiers, in addition to the people in that place, everyone loves to practice martial arts, but also inseparable from culture, Danyang people dare to play with their lives, as long as you are good to him, you can pay military salaries, and you can give a pension if you die in battle, so that they have no worries, they dare to rush forward in the sea of swords, mountains and fires, it is precisely because of this spirit that there are Danyang elite soldiers.

After the meal, the escort team gathered more than 3,000 people to stand in unison on the school field, and Jiao Ting and Chao Gai rode horses back and forth in front of the team twice. Jiao Ting shouted: "Usually don't you want to know who your big boss is, this big boss next to me is the big boss who provides you with good food and drink and high military salary, Jeju Tuan Lian Chao Gai." ”

The mystery in everyone's hearts was solved, and it turned out that it was the military who recruited the escort.

Chao Gai said: "The escort team has been training for three months, and the money and food are consumed countless times a day, and each person's bare boots are worn out several pairs." I have to check the results today, and those who fail the evaluation will be sent back to their hometown. ”

Jiao Ting said: "How to assess, please ask my brother to make it clear." ”

Chao Gai said: "Forget the queue, I believe you can practice the most basic things well." Let's show your muscles first, it is said that Danyang people can fight, and all of them are from a practicing family. ”

This is easy to do, Chao Gai gave an order, the big guy took off his shirt, and more than 3,000 people stood shirtless. Chao Gai looked back and forth, it seemed that he had really worked hard, all the muscles were bulging, and he couldn't produce such muscles without high-intensity training.

Chao Gai looked back and forth, and found a boy who was about 1.7 meters tall and thin with exposed ribs, Chao Gai pointed with a whip: "You, out of the ranks." ”

"Yes." The little soldier was unambiguous and strode out.

"Fifty push-ups." Chao Gai ordered.

The thin soldier will do it when he lies down, and it will be completed in the blink of an eye in fifty times.

"Fifty more pull-ups." Chao Gai commanded again.

The little thin man used to do fifty pull-ups quickly, and his physical fitness was very good.

Chao Gai let the little thin man return to the team, and drew more than a dozen soldiers to do these basic training subjects, Jiao Ting's training is really strictly forbidden, and almost all the soldiers practice very well.

Chao Gai waved his hand and said, "Let's disperse, let's train separately." Jiao Ting, you come with me. ”

Jiao Ting followed Chao Gai to the battalion headquarters, and Chao Gai said, "How is the conventional weapons training?" ”

Jiao Ting said: "I have practiced the sword, spear, bow and arrow, and basically can meet the requirements of the outline. ”

"That's good, but I also said at the beginning of its establishment that these three thousand guards should be used as a fist force, and it is easy not to shoot, and it will be a big battle, so it is not enough to rely on conventional weapons alone, and it is necessary to have some hard guys."

Jiao Ting said: "Vulcan spear? My brother won't let all these 3,000 soldiers use Vulcan guns. ”

"Exactly, but this is an improved Vulcan Gun, called Vulcan Gun II. The Vulcan Gun is a large, powerful, and lethal one. The barrel of the second-generation gun is half a meter shorter, so the lethality is much weaker. However, because the barrel is shorter, it is more convenient to operate, so the rate of fire is faster, and the three-stage design can snipe the cavalry team from a distance of 150 meters. Chao Gai said.

Jiao Ting said: "The Vulcan gun is good, but it is not good to use when it rains." ”

Chao Gai said: "Wait a while, you will be able to see it immediately." ”

Half an hour later, three canvas-covered wagons arrived, and a box of Vulcan spears was carried into the camp headquarters. Chao Gai opened the box and took out a Vulcan gun, this gun looked even stronger, with a thickened solid wood butt and a thick steel barrel, which was only one and a half meters long as a whole. However, there was a half-meter-long dagger next to it, which just stuck on the muzzle, and the Vulcan spear instantly turned into a spear, and the length of two meters could basically catch up with the small flower spear.

Chao Gai put the Vulcan spear with a good spear, took it in his hand, and played a few gun flowers, although it was only two meters long, but the head of the gun was half a meter, there was a blood groove, made of stainless steel, and the lethality should not be underestimated.

"You try." Chao Gai handed the Vulcan Gun to Jiao Ting, Jiao Ting tried it, and said: "The weight is very overwhelming, it is easier to use than the small flower spear fight, and it is an absolutely good weapon after practice." ”

Chao Gai said: "Of course, the second generation of the Vulcan gun has a much shorter body, but the materials have not been reduced, and it is natural to press the hand." Call all the company commanders and above, and the big guy will look at the weapons. ”

There are also dozens of middle-level officers, and soon the big guy expires, Jiao Ting took out the Vulcan gun for everyone to see. Those who have never seen the power of the Vulcan gun questioned this gun.

"How to use such a thing, I don't feel like it's as good as a knife or a spear." A company commander said.

Jiao Ting said: "This is called the Vulcan spear, which uses gunpowder as the power to shoot out the iron projectiles, which can break light armor at a distance of 100 meters, and deal with infantry, cavalry has a very powerful lethality, and killing people is like cutting leeks." ”

Chao Gai said: "Let the big guy see and see, Luo Yun, you take fifty personal soldiers to the shooting range, let the big guy see and know." ”

Luo Yun took the officers of the escort team to the shooting range to see it.

Chao Gai and Jiao Ting discussed the matter of training troops at the battalion headquarters, during this time, Jiao Ting was tired and thin when he led the troops independently, the whole person was black and thin, and the independent leading of the troops was more tiring than being a personal soldier, and he had to be responsible for everything in every detail, and all kinds of things were complicated.

Jiao Ting said: "As a speed-oriented troops, the escort team can only be equipped with light armor, and if only one Vulcan gun is equipped in actual combat, it is inevitable that there are some deficiencies, so it is best to equip it with other weapons." ”

Pang Wanchun said: "Or do you also learn from our archers, equipped with a cavalry knife with a gauntlet, or a heavy Yanling knife." ”

Jiao Ting said: "This still needs time to test, I personally feel that the cavalry knife is lighter if it is used in foot combat, after all, our imaginary enemy Jin and Liao soldiers are all heavy weapons, and even have difficult weapons such as maces." ”

"Then equip it with the Yanling Knife, we have a lot of weapons in our arsenal." Chao Gai said.

While they were talking, Luo Yun and the others came back.

Jiao Ting asked the company commanders: "How is it, how powerful is the Vulcan gun?" ”

"It's good, it's amazing."

Luo Yun said: "How to make a good method, you have to know where the advantages are. ”

A few quick thinkers sorted it out and said: "First of all, he has a long range, he can hit two hundred meters or even farther, and break the plank on a hundred meters. Second, the Vulcan gun is loaded with ammunition, which requires very little effort, unlike the physical effort of bows and arrows. Third, according to Battalion Commander Luo, when firing, they are lined up in three columns, which can continuously rain bullets and block large-scale enemy attacks. Chao Gai said: "Weapons are basically divided into two categories, bows and arrows, knives, and guns, which belong to cold weapons, and Vulcan guns, artillery, which need to be burned with gunpowder to generate power, we call them thermal weapons." Thermal weapons will produce gunpowder smoke and sound when fired, which is a deterrent in itself, although the Vulcan gun has limited power, but it is a hot weapon, compared to cold weapons is exaggerated, so there are many benefits. Of course, cold weapons are fundamental, and cold weapons must not be discarded. “
