The effect of the training is remarkable, and there is no problem with the three-stage combo, all the female soldiers can open the crossbow twenty times in a row, after all, it only takes thirty catties of strength to open the crossbow.

The bodies of these female soldiers are too weak, if they can be fed and clothed, and then after a little training, it is not a problem to fire the crossbow a hundred times in a row.

What worries Yun Mo the most is the female soldiers with guns and shields in the first row, most of them are twenty-eight pounds tall, plus the spears in their hands, these frail female soldiers have no way to march with such heavy weapons and equipment.

The first row of spear and shield soldiers was to prevent the enemy cavalry from charging, but these weak female soldiers were not suitable for using tower shields and spears at all, and Yun Mo had no choice but to abandon the spear and shield soldiers arranged in the first row to prevent the cavalry from charging.

Fifty crossbowmen could not cope with the impact of hundreds of enemy cavalry, but the Tang Anxi Army had such old and weak women and children remaining, and Yun Mo had no way, and manpower became Yun Mo's biggest problem.

Once the enemy's cavalry is allowed to rush into the crossbowmen's array, it is a catastrophe for the weak female crossbowmen. In order to make up for the lack of strength and physical strength, Yun Mo had to find another way.

There are many miscanthus nitrates and sulfur in the western regions, and the miscanthus nitrate in the saline-alkali land is all over the mountains, and it is very convenient to collect. High-purity miscanthus can be harvested all year round, but it is better to be in autumn and winter, because the temperature is low and easy to crystallize, there is no such restriction in the Western Regions, because the temperature at night in the Western Regions is enough to crystallize miscanthus nitrate.

The method of extracting high-purity miscanthus nitrate is also simple, take the impure miscanthus nitrate produced naturally, commonly known as soil nitrate, add water to dissolve, place, precipitate impurities, filter, heat and concentrate the filtrate, precipitate crystals after cooling, take out and dry, you can obtain high-purity miscanthus nitrate.

Twenty kilometers away from the grape ditch, there is a sulphur ditch, which, as the name suggests, is rich in sulphur.

There are miscanthus and sulfur, and the gunpowder has become Yun Mo's only choice, the fifty female crossbowmen will continue to be trained by the elder Uncle Chen, Zhang Ying will take people to collect miscanthus and sulfur, and Yun Mo will take more than thirty people to the iron-making workshop.

Zhang Ying: The pig iron they smelted before is now of great use, and Yun Mo wants to use these pig iron to make the shell of the earth-shaking thunder.

In modern times, it is only a blink of an eye to make such a spherical iron shell, but it is really difficult to make that spherical pig iron shell in Grape Valley, where the basic industry is almost zero, almost difficult to reach the sky.

"Rules are dead, people are alive", the biggest difference between humans and animals is that people can make and use tools.

"If there are conditions, you must go up, and if you don't have conditions, you must also go up if you don't have conditions." This sentence is the true portrayal of Yun Mo now, and Yun Mo at this time is maximizing his intelligence.

First of all, find a big gourd, remove the part of the small ball in front, only keep the big ball part under the big gourd, and then separate the remaining halves, and then use these two halves of the gourd to make a sand mold.

There is no difficulty in the above process, and the following process is slightly difficult, but it is not as difficult as creating a sword.

Use the sand mold to pour out two hemisphere pig iron shells, and then check whether there is trachoma, if there is trachoma, it needs to be quenched and beaten, and finally the two hemisphere shells are glued together with high-temperature pig iron water, and the pig iron shell of the earth-shaking thunder is completed.

This is the art of decomposition, a thing that looks difficult, after being broken down one by one, it will be within your ability and so on, when you encounter a problem in your life, it is better to try to decompose, maybe you can solve a few small steps, do a deeper mathematical problem, in fact, there are similarities.

The most standard formula of gunpowder, for Yun Mo, a traverser, is not a problem, just take out your mobile phone Baidu and click it, the ratio of nitrate and sulfur carbon is 75:15:10.

Every day's life is still eating bran vegetables, but everyone has taken action under the leadership of Yun Mo, looking at the bags of high-quality green salt boiled out one by one, everyone feels that all the hard work and dedication are worth it.

After another three full days, Yun Mo finally made more than 120 earth-shaking thunderbolts, each sky-shaking thunder was three catties and four taels, and the charge was one catty and four taels, and the power was about the same as a wooden-handled grenade in later generations.

If such a heavy earth-shaking thunder is thrown by hand, these weak female soldiers can't throw it ten meters away, in fact, this problem is easy to solve, tie a one-meter-long rope to the sky-shaking thunder, and throw it after rotating the rope a few times, you can easily throw more than three catties of sky-shaking thunder out of thirty-four meters away. (You can tie bricks to test, but dangerous, don't try.) ）

Everything is ready, you can go out to exchange food, because it is the first time to exchange green salt for food, for the sake of insurance, Yun Mo only carried three hundred catties of green salt, one carriage can be easily pulled away, and the other two carriages are loaded with eighty earth-shattering thunders and thousands of arrows.

In the past few days, because of the meat to eat, everyone's physical strength has recovered, but everyone is still so thin and weak, pulling thirty catties of imitation crossbows (also called Shenwei crossbows), these women can open crossbows up to twenty times in a row.

As far as their group is extremely weak, and they are a hastily trained women's team, if they encounter a hundred cavalry enemies, even if they have a divine crossbow, they will be killed by a hundred cavalry enemies, but fortunately, Yun Mo created dozens of earth-shattering thunders, which gave Yun Mo the confidence to go out and exchange green salt for food.

Before leaving, Yun Mo conducted the final assessment of more than 50 female soldiers, and four of the more outstanding four women served as Xiaoqi, they were "Zhao Mei, Qian Lan, Sun Zhu, Li Ju" four literate young women.

There are a total of twelve people in each small banner, which is equivalent to a class in later generations, the leader of Yun Mo is the general banner, and Uncle Chen serves as the deputy general banner.

The military establishment used by Yun Mo is not much different from that of the Tang Army, because Zhang Ying's tribe was originally the remnants of the Tang Anxi Army, and they are also very familiar with the Tang Dynasty military system.

Moreover, these people have feelings for Datang, and after the demise of Datang, they can still stick to the Western Regions under the banner of Datang for more than a hundred years, if Yun Mo uses any modern military system, he will not be recognized by them at all.

Yes, Yun Mo continued the military system of the Tang Dynasty in order to get the approval of this group of old and weak women and children, but Yun Mo did not intend to remain unchanged, because the military system of the Tang Dynasty was also unreasonable.

Although Yun Mo only had fifty weak female soldiers in his hands, Yun Mo at this time was already formalizing and forming his own army. At the beginning of the creation of an army, it is best not to be contaminated with the atmosphere of rogues, and Li Zicheng is a lesson from the past.

On the day of the assessment, Yun Mo drew up a new military system that had not been promulgated.

"12 people for a small flag; 3 small flags are a total flag, a total of 40 people; 3 small flags for a team, a total of 140 people; 3 teams are a battalion, with a total of 500 people; 3 battalions as a regiment, a total of 2,000 people; The 3rd regiment is a guard, with a total of 6,800 people. (The Wei Commander is the highest rank of the military officer, and the military position only refers to the official position that has been in the army for a long time, which is equivalent to the current brigade commander.) ）

The 2nd Guard is a division with a total of 15,000 men, and the 2nd Division is an army with a total of 36,000 men, and the commander is also a military commander. (The division commander and the military commander are both martial arts positions, and the military commanders are to stay in the capital in peacetime and lead the army in wartime.) ）

This new military system was drawn up by Yun Mo himself after learning the lessons of the warlords in the late Tang Dynasty, and he will form his own army in accordance with this plan in the future.

The power of the Tang Dynasty was too great, the military and government were in charge, and there were tens of thousands of elite soldiers under his command, which was definitely to create conditions for the warlords to divide their territories.

……

(In the Tang Dynasty, each guard led 40-60 mansions, and each prefecture was placed as the chief lieutenant, and two people on the left and right Guoyi were the deputies.) Each military government has jurisdiction over 4~6 regiments, with 200 regiments (also known as battalions), and the regiment has captains.

Each regiment has jurisdiction over 2 brigades, with 100 brigade personnel, and the brigade has a brigade commander. Each brigade has 2 teams, 50 people, and the team is set up. Each team is divided into 5 fires, 10 fires, and the fire is long. The government soldiers are generally called guards, those who are good at arching horses are Yue Cai, and the rest are infantry, spearmen, and foot shooting. ）
