"Fire!" Qian Longzhou gave the order to open fire, and with a "bang" explosion, the projectile flew straight towards the target fifty meters away.

A cloud of smoke suddenly rose from the grass target, and a hole was punched out of the grass target's red heart. However, Qian Longzhou and the princess didn't see the results of the shooting, because the smoke emitted by the projectile directly covered the line of sight in front of them. The princess choked and coughed several times, and a pair of hands fanned her nose twice, and wiped away the tears that had been smoked from the gunpowder. "Mr. Chief Instructor, how was the fight?"

Qian Longzhou also fanned the gunsmoke, and when the gunpowder smoke faded a little, he hurriedly looked around, "It's accurate, it's a red heart." As he spoke, he excitedly patted Ruan Wenyu on the shoulder. Ruan Wenyu nodded proudly at Qian Longzhou with a smile on his face, he was very confident in his shooting skills, he used to be a hunter, and he often hunted in the mountains and forests since he was a child. Although he didn't know why the chief instructor wanted them to learn to stand up and turn left and right for a while, he was full of excitement when he finally saw the chief instructor shoot at a target fifty or sixty paces away with this "rifle" one day, and then showed his shooting talent in the first live firing.

The soldiers watching from the sidelines also cheered together, and for a while, the soldiers on the playground screamed and were about to rush up to cheer. I heard someone outside the wall shouting, "Who is it?" ”

"Expedited military intelligence! It's up to the princess to decide! As he was shouting, a man in a robe rushed in, and the sentry at the door pulled him all the way, but he was still led forward step by step.

"Your Highness the Princess!" As soon as the man saw that the princess was in front of him, he hurriedly knelt down and shouted, "Urgent report from the south!" As he spoke, he immediately lifted the military intelligence above his head.

One of the guards brought by the princess hurriedly stepped forward to check, and sure enough, the mark on the seal fire paint was indeed the emblem of the Nguyen dynasty. Hurriedly took the military intelligence paper, turned around and ran to the princess, raised his hands above his head, and knelt down to present it.

The princess did not shy away from suspicion, directly opened the cover, took out the letter and took a closer look, and couldn't help but be startled. Qian Longzhou stretched his neck and leaned over to look, but there were crooked Chinese characters on it, and occasionally some characters were still two or two characters together, and they were all in traditional Chinese. He tried to read it, but he couldn't, so he gave up and turned his head to look at the soldiers who were eager to rush forward.

"What for?" Qian Longzhou crossed his waist with his left hand and pulled out the rattan from his waist with his right hand and shouted, "Stand honestly!" It's not disbanded yet! ”

The playground, which had been a bit noisy, immediately fell silent, and the soldiers hurriedly shrank back to where they had just stood. "Stand upright! Whereas, you have all violated the order just now! All stand in military posture for half an hour! ”

What this group of soldiers are most afraid of now is standing in a military posture, which is different from a punishment position, standing there with their heads held high when standing in a military posture is naturally good-looking, but they are really guilty...... But since the chief instructor issued the order, he naturally had to stand honestly. Some of them have tried before, if they don't obey the order, they have to really eat sticks, although the chief instructor is a little painless when he beats people, but he will let the non-commissioned officer do it, the non-commissioned officer is ruthless, and when he hits, people really can't stand it, so they have to stand there one by one with their chests raised and their heads raised like a group of monkeys who have been punished.

"Chief Instructor......" Princess Ji shouted softly to Qian Longzhou with a little difficulty. The latter immediately turned his head, although he couldn't understand the things on the document just now, but Her Royal Highness the princess's official language was still very authentic, even if there was some Annam accent in it, but it was no problem to understand it.

"The south is in an emergency, there will be southern barbarians about to invade the north in the near future, yesterday the Yishan beacon tower sent a beacon fire emergency report, and the barbarians of the Klovhan tribe are about to go north again."

"Yishan Beacon Tower?" Qian Longzhou felt very depressed, since he came to this world, the original map was basically invalid, this is the princess who said that the name of the place was almost completely unknown.

"Yes." The princess's face was full of anxiety at this time, "The Yishan Beacon Tower is one hundred and fifty miles here, and it will pass through the three cities of my father on the way, and then it may enter the boundary of my Zhancheng Port. ”

"Passing through the three cities of your father's king, your father's army cannot resist them...... He couldn't help but stutter a little, he couldn't remember the racial names ......of these barbarians.

"Clovhan." The princess hurriedly added, "Clovhan's barbarians are fierce and unusually fierce, and they have strong mounts, and our soldiers can't resist them, these barbarians once hit me a few years ago, and they only left after a plunder, and every time they have to plunder a large number of our people and treasures, they return with a full load." ”

A voice suddenly came from the side, "Your Royal Highness the Princess," the princess turned her head in amazement, and a slightly fat young man stood behind her, wearing the same cardigan as Qian Longzhou, obviously from Dongfang Port. "How do these Klohans make ends meet?"

"Who is this?" The princess asked Qian Longzhou a little strangely.

Qian Longzhou hurriedly introduced: "This is a comrade from our Ministry of Commerce, named Lu Qi, who came here this time to replace the previous Commissioner Liu. ”

"That's right," the princess nodded. "These Klovhan clans are a total of twelve large clans, with thick skin and rough flesh, dare to fight, and are often able to ignore casualties. Now my ** people are already frightened of this group of barbarians. She couldn't help but bow her head and shake her head. These Clovhans cross the sea every year around October on a continent to the south, plunder and return, and some say that they have Medeno as their sea-going troops and even directly equip them with their weapons and armor. Moreover, there are still profiteers in our country who are interested in the interests of profiteers, and they secretly collude with them to sell the goods they need in exchange for high profits. ”

"Sure enough, with a 300% profit, you can take the risk of cutting off your head." Luffy couldn't help but mumble to himself.

"That's right!" The princess couldn't help clapping her hands and exclaimed, "These merchants are my sworn enemies of Zhanchenggang, and if they are caught, they are guilty of raiding their families and exterminating their clans, but there are still such people, and every year you can see the reappearance of the treasury silver that was snatched by the Clovhan barbarians on the market......

"It's all for profit," said Ruchi with a smile, "and as long as there is money to be made, they can sell sharp knives to the executioners who cut off their heads." ”

The princess couldn't help but smile bitterly, she knew very well in her heart that these guys from Dongfang Harbor in front of her were also looking at money with bright eyes, in case if the Clovhan people offered a higher price than herself, would the forces of Dongfang Port turn to support the Clovhans? At this time, she was completely at a loss in her heart.

"I don't know about this batch...... When will rifles be supplied to my army in Champang? She asked tentatively.

Qian Longzhou nodded and said, "The rifle is now in mass production, and it is estimated that the five hundred rifles and matching bullets will be produced in ten days, but the problem is that the bridge is still under construction, and it will not be shipped until the bridge is built." ”

The princess is well aware of the bridge. At the time of the negotiations, she didn't believe that these people from Dongfang Harbor would be able to build the road to this side in two months, which was almost forty miles. It's just over a month, and the road construction team of Dongfang Port has already repaired the road to the other side of the river, and the construction has not yet started on its own side. Finally, when she mobilized a lot of people to start building the road to the north, the people of Dongfang Harbor had already piled up a few stone piles on the river, which seemed to be bridge piers. She now has to go to see it every few days, the people of the Dongfang Port Road Construction Team are tossing things on the bridge piers day by day under the command of a black fat man, and what is more interesting is that the black fat man often wears this robe, I heard Qian Longzhou here say that his name is actually called Baobao, is anyone called this name? She now fully believes in the words of these Dongfang Hong Kong people, who said that the road will be repaired in two months, and it has only been a month and five days, and the bridge pier has been formed. Since Qian Longzhou said that the rifle is now being mass-produced at this time, it must be true.

"Can these 'Senate rifles' be able to play such a role after they are supplied to our soldiers?" She asked, pointing to the target more than sixty paces away.

"Our rifles are all the same powerful, that's for sure, but the soldiers must be specially trained, otherwise they will shoot indiscriminately when they encounter the enemy on the battlefield." Qian Longzhou hurriedly introduced the important points of the tactics of queuing up to shoot. "You know, the effective range of this rifle is only about seventy meters, and if a soldier shoots randomly out of panic after encountering an enemy, it is very likely that the bullet will be fired before the enemy enters the killing distance, because it takes forty to fifty seconds to reload the ammunition, and the enemy is likely to come into contact with the infantry in the first line during this time. If the enemy is infantry, it is fine, if it is cavalry, the enemy will be enough to break through and outflank us in these forty seconds. So you have to train for at least a month. ”

"Then can you find a way to get them into battle early?" The princess is now anxious, Clovhan's marauders are almost all riding a strange creature, although the creature is not fast, but the impact is very strong, and the strength is also quite large, the father's infantry can't stop these barbarians, her old army naturally don't think about it, but what about this new army? All her hopes now are in this new army, and if she can't stop these Clovhan barbarians this year, she will inevitably suffer another barbarian ransack outside the walls.

Qian Longzhou shook his head helplessly, "Training is not a joke at all, one more pound of sweat on the training ground, one less drop of blood on the battlefield." ”

"It's not impossible," Lucci quickly interjected. Qian Longzhou looked at this guy in amazement, he was not familiar with this Lu Qi. But if Du Yande was there, he would have been pulled away immediately, because the addition of Lucci was definitely his biggest mistake. He used to be a salesman of a commercial company, familiar with English and German, and often boasted about Haikou to foreigners in foreign negotiations, but in the end he could not meet the requirements of the other party in terms of technology, and was removed from the company after several criticisms. He came to participate in the crossing purely because he read many travel novels and was misled, thinking that life after the crossing was extremely easy, but as a result, he was a little passive and slacking off on the third day after the landing day, which caused a very bad impact in the working group he was in, and now because he covered up the reasons for his many failures in the business company before, he successfully mixed in the Ministry of Commerce again. This time, Liu Shenhong returned to Dongfang Port to report on his work, so he was transferred to Zhancheng Port.
