Chapter 314: Complete the equipment for jungle warfare

At that time, the young king Chen Rixuan frowned and said, "What is the use of them digging coal?" ”

When one of the ministers found out, he said, "This thing is better than charcoal when it is made on a fire and cooked...... It just smells bad and dirty. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The young king Chen Rixuan chuckled softly, not wanting to pay attention to this matter.

A military general said: "The minister thinks that every grass and tree is owned by me, and they dig at will, which hurts the national body, and cannot be ignored!" ”

Chen Rixuan gently patted the armrest of the dragon chair and said, "Okay, every grass and tree is owned by me, how can I let others use it indiscriminately...... Send them away! ”

The general was glad to get the order at that time.

When he returned, he called a lieutenant general, took five hundred men, and got on three sea boats in a rage, and went out to sea along the Red River, and went north along the coast, to the bay hundreds of miles away...... This matter is not big, but the more trivial it is, the easier it is to make meritorious contributions, and I heard that there are countless large sea ships there!

So, the harvest will definitely be great!

At the beginning, after Captain Guo Beyu quickly built the panel house, he did not delay anything while constructing and building.

The point is that after the Badaohe region brought back the coal here, it was always sent with a full load of supplementary supplies, not counting other goods sent specifically in the name of training.

In a short time, a small base was built here, about 3,000 square meters, surrounded by a two-meter-high cement prefabricated panel fence.

These prefabricated cement slabs, like their trestle, are all in the flow of making good luck, so there is no need to bother here.

At the same time, Captain Guo Beyu made full use of the bamboo resources here, and built a watchtower more than two meters higher than the fence at each of the four corners of the southeast, northwest, and northwest.

At the same time, scaffolding is erected on the inside of the wall, so you can easily shoot outside with the help of the wall.

At the same time, they brought water from the upper reaches of the small river.

The pipes are connected together with open bamboo pipes. Buried half a meter deep in the ground, it is impossible to see from the outside.

At the base, they built a large cement pool to hold water.

In order to keep the water clean, the water outlet was also designed, and the bamboo pipe was also buried deep in the ground and led back into the river.

In a word. The pool would have enough water for more than 800 people for a month.

Food and other daily necessities are placed in the suspended bamboo building, which goes without saying.

They also carved out a number of vegetable fields outside the base, and soon they didn't need to beg to transport them, just a few more supplies, such as sea salt.

Captain Guo Beyu originally sent a few personnel, with ten stones of refined salt, on a sea boat, and after arriving at Jiaozhou City, he pushed the cart to find the governor of this state. As a result, he was detained in the name of unclarity and knocked people out of the door...... They can only say that it is by the sea, where it is, they can only say the northwest, and what the name of the place is, they can't say clearly, they can only call it Ha Long Bay.

As a result, the staff of Zhizhou had never heard of it at all, and thought he was here to make trouble. Get out!

Captain Guo Beyu could only smile bitterly, hundreds of miles away. Can you go for a car?!

That kind of big wooden frame car, which can be pulled by people or livestock, has thousands of cars in the Badaohe area, and it is not bad.

Just assume they agree.

At this time, Annan was also frying salt. Salt is not cheap, and when Captain Guo Beyu still thinks about making some more transactions, he can exchange it for sea salt.

While others dig charcoal, transport and ship it, Captain Guo Beyu leads the team members to familiarize themselves with the surrounding environment...... It's really about the same as the south of Liuqiu. It's just hotter.

They were pleasantly surprised to find that there were also herds of sambar deer, and they could occasionally hunt wild boars!

The team members were pleasantly surprised that the prey here was much more stupid than the prey in the southern part of Liuqiu Island, and it was easy to fall into the ambush trap.

On the most days, they hit more than thirty heads at once......

Captain Guo Beyu led the team members to hunt, and at the same time was familiar with the jungle warfare mentioned by the head of Zhang Guoan's family, and felt that what he said was really reasonable...... It's never been a place to fight.

He found the crossbow to work better in the jungle, better than the firecap-style mini, second only to the short-fire gun.

In this era, bows were universal for foot riders, while crossbows could only be used by infantry.

Because the crossbow generally needs to be opened with foot force, the range is also long.

However, the frequency of crossbow firing is low, and from the time the enemy cavalry enters the firing range to the close encounter, only three crossbows can be fired. Four times.

Therefore, during this period, the Great Song Dynasty army sometimes set up special crossbowmen, crossbowmen, and crossbowmen to shorten the interval between arrows.

There are many types of crossbows in the Great Song Army, and there are two prominent ones, one is the bed crossbow, and the other is the divine arm bow.

The bed crossbow is a heavy weapon, and there have been too many of the previous ones.

Just talk about the Divine Arm Bow.

It is actually a standard crossbow with a pedal ring on the front, but it can be fired by one person, and the range can reach more than 370 meters, and it can penetrate heavy armor, making opponents fearful.

This standard crossbow is compact, and the bow is no more than a meter long...... But it's still too big for the jungle.

Therefore, Captain Guo Beyu wrote a letter to the head of the Zhang family, pointing out that it was required that crossbows and arrows with lethality within fifty meters should not be too large......

Zhang Guoan, the owner of the island, was very supportive of this spirit of research and development, in fact, he found himself despised jungle warfare at the time...... However, there is still time to do it, as long as he thinks of it, he will definitely give more equipment than Captain Guo Beyu asked for.

Jungle combat knives, jungle crossbows, jungle combat bandanas, jungle combat boots, black and green mosquito repellent cream, and deliberately printed and dyed black and green linen cotton uniforms...... In less than a month, a total of less than 300 sets of equipment were complete.

When Captain Guo Beyu received these assemblies and a black pike, he was overjoyed.

The long-handed, long-legged black East Africans seem to be good pikemen by nature, and they show great flexibility in training, and they can be disciplined in both advance and retreat.

When they were in the Badaohe area, they were usually very obedient to orders...... It wasn't until they slowly and basically understood Da Song's words that they became a very good help.

Captain Guo Beyu carefully read the letter from Zhang Guoan's family, and then checked the assembly one by one...... He first assembled it and felt it, and understood the meaning of the master's family better.

He immediately set about arranging, first assembling the black spear team, changing them into a team that could fight in the jungle and spears on the regular battlefield, and specially equipped them with short spears of one meter and two.

As for their more than 100 team members, of course, they all changed their costumes.

Wait until they burrow into the jungle. Even the blacks understood the role of the garment...... If it was the red military uniform of the Great Song Dynasty, it would be seen from a distance here, and as long as they didn't move, it would be really difficult to find it at a glance.

Their jungle practice begins with hunting...... If you can't even ambush the stupid sambar, let alone people.

The Ha Long Bay area was still primitive at this time, except for the coal mining face they cleared, and except for the Ha Long Bay base that they had cleared, it was full of wild grasses with leaves of size and leaves more than one person tall and half a person high.

On the observation post set up on the top of the hill, there are two sentries, who can see more clearly from the top of the hill more than 100 meters high...... If it weren't for the long cement trestle that juts out into the sea, and if it weren't for the big ship docked and loading coal, even if there were 10,000 people here, no one would have found it.
