Of course, if, like the Liaodong artillery in this era, gunpowder and projectiles are stuffed into the barrel, and then a general direction is found to ignite and shoot, as for whether or not you can accurately hit the target, it all depends on character, and it is also simple.

The problem is that such an artillery is nothing more than an enlarged version of a musketeer, but not what Sun Yuan wanted.

Artillery tactics, or how to operate artillery, had become a science in Europe at the same time. Artillerymen need to calculate the angle of elevation and calculate the parabola before firing, which is already the level of junior high school mathematics.

Sun Yuan was a liberal arts student in his previous life, and things like mathematics were returned to the teacher as soon as he entered the university. By now, it's been completely forgotten

。 It is also known that pi is 3.1415, and the rectangle is equal to the length times the width. How to train this artilleryman, he is blind, not to mention, how to build artillery is also very critical, this thing, even if you have money, there is nowhere to buy it.

Thinking of this, Sun Yuan smiled bitterly and put the brush on the inkstone.

He looked at the candlelight in front of him, and only after half a sound did he rub his hands and mutter: "It seems that if you want to form an artillery corps, you have to recruit some useful talents." ”

In this era, there are only three directions to find people with experience in artillery operations. First, dig from the Liaodong Army; 2. Pirates; 3. Foreigners.

Liaodong Army, forget it. The red-coated cannon in the hands of these guys belongs to the elimination of goods, and when they fight, it is all based on Menghe and their character. As for a swarm of bees, it's just a big gift.

Besides, the good artillerymen of Liaodong all surrendered to Jianzhou during the Denglai Rebellion and became people's coated minions, .cc [marshmallow] Besides, these military ruffians and uncles, Sun Yuan and the waiters can't afford it, don't spoil a pot of soup with a mouse lice.

Sun Yuan is just a small officer of a thousand households, and the Liaodong Army will not come to take refuge.

As for pirates, you can consider it. As far as Sun Yuan knows, the route from Japan and Korea to Guangdong is now in the hands of this group of pirates represented by Zheng Zhilong and Liu Xiang. Although this group of people has brought disaster to the country and the people, because they have dealt with foreigners all year round, their knowledge is not comparable to ordinary people, and they belong to the people who first open their eyes to see the world.

Crisscrossing the seven seas, it is inevitable to participate in naval battles. Naval battles mainly rely on artillery battles, and generally speaking, when two warships meet, everyone first bombards each other with artillery. When the bombardment was almost over, they leaned together for a broadside battle. Those guys, compared to the deep understanding of artillery.

Perhaps, when the war here is over, I can consider fighting pirates and see if I can find some talent among pirates.

But this idea was only together, and it was immediately denied by Sun Yuan.

First of all, the pirates' nests are all in Fujian and Guangdong, and it is impossible for him to lead a large army there to suppress the bandits. At the most important point, in order to eliminate pirates, you first have to build a navy. From ancient times to the present, the navy has been the most money-hungry army. A warship is enough for the Ningxiang army to pay a year's military salary, and Sun Yuan is not a rich man.

Then, you can only find foreigners.

This is the only way to do it

。

As far as Sun Yuan knows, there are many foreigners in Guangzhou today, and they can occasionally be seen in the north and south of Beijing.

In the memory of the old owner of this body, Sun Yuan had seen a foreign devil with blue eyes and yellow hair in Nanjing. Judging from the physical characteristics of those foreigners in memory, it should be of the Nordic race. It's just that most of these foreign devils are missionaries, and I don't know if they understand military affairs.

But how can you be willing if you don't try, as far as Sun Yuan knows, the education level of European missionaries in this era seems to be good, and mathematics, geometry, physics and other subjects are all compulsory subjects. Don't say it, it shouldn't be a problem to let them calculate the ballistics of the cannon or something.

Thinking of this, Sun Yuan was excited at the same time, and sighed again: "Useless liberal arts monk, I knew that I was going to cross, I should have learned science and homework in the first place." It's okay, it's good, at least it's a little better than a programmer's crossing, and it's not too bad. ”

A good memory is not as good as a bad pen, and after writing so much, Sun Yuan's thinking on army building began to become clear.

At this time, the guard shouted at the door: "Stop, what are you doing?" ”

A rude voice shouted: "Damn, what are you, a lowly military household, dare to stand in the way of Lao Tzu, do you know who I am?" ”

This voice is so familiar, it is Sun Yuan's top boss Dahewei commanding Fang Richang.

Sun Yuan couldn't help frowning: This guy actually entered Sizhou City so quickly, but he was also a little bold...... However, it was probably forced by Lu Xiangsheng's Shang Fang Sword, right?

This time he was sent to Sizhou, and Sun Yuan was also very helpless. Here's the thing, after Gao Yingxiang's army was defeated by the Tianxiong army, he grabbed the road and ran wildly, but fled to the city of Sizhou on the fifth day. This made Lu Xiangsheng surprised, and it was also thunderous and angry.

The purpose of this battle was to completely annihilate the thief army in the Jianghuai area between the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, but the peasant army scattered and fled, and ran extremely fast, but he lost some inches. After all, the army of thieves is not only Gao Yingxiang, but also Zhang Xianzhong.

Therefore, he pursued in several directions.

Unexpectedly, Gao Yingxiang came directly to Sizhou, preparing to flee to Henan via the Yellow River.

The thief army can throw away all the baggage and rush forward lightly, but the three armies of Tianxiong, Guanning, and Nanjing can't do this, just like that, they were left behind by Gao Yingxiang

。

At this moment, the entire Nanjing area has been transferred to Nanjing and Chuzhou by Fan Jingwen, but the Huaihe River and Hongze Lake areas are empty. The only available soldier is the remaining military households of the Great River Guard.

Lu Xiangsheng had no choice, so he ordered Dahewei to command Fang Richang to rush to Sizhou and organize the local guards to defend the city, and be sure to hold out until the main force of the Tianxiong Army arrived.

After receiving this order, Fang Richang gave Sun Yuan an order, ordering him to accompany the counselor in military affairs. It must be arrived within three days.

Sun Yuan also knew that this surnamed Fang was the most unkind, but he was his immediate boss after all. Although Sun Yuan has already made peerless feats in Chuzhou, he has won the first merit in this battle. And Lu Xiangsheng also admires him very much, if nothing else, when this battle is over, Lu Inspector will definitely go to the court to ask for merit for him.

When the time comes, Sun Yuan will be promoted to three levels, and it will be no problem to be a senior officer at the first level of command. Emperor Chongzhen has a characteristic of employing people, he is anxious and casual, as long as you have real merit, he dares to promote you to an unimaginable high position. But if I'm disappointed in you, it's a matter of one sentence to shove you to the end. In the more than ten years that he has been emperor, he has changed dozens of cabinet ministers. In the end, local officials are unclear who is in charge of the cabinet and who should be approached.

At that time, with the clumsy performance of the Nanjing Army on the battlefield, Sun Yuan naturally would not take him seriously.

However, for now, Sun Yuan is still nominally Fang Richang's subordinate. Military orders are like mountains, if Sun Yuan dares to disobey orders and disobey them, with this birdman and his own grudge, this guy will definitely declare personal vendettas, Sun Yuan has never been afraid to speculate on such a villain with the greatest malice. Moreover, this time Fang Richang said very clearly that there was no need to bring the Ningxiang army over, it would be too late anyway, so let Sun Yuan come over as his staff and formulate a plan to defend the city.

There was no way, Sun Yuan could only hand over the army to Fei Hong for training, and rushed over alone with thirty guards day and night.

He also knew that Fang Richang must have prepared some conspiracy for himself. But as a person in the system, Sun Yuan still has to act according to the rules of officialdom and the army.

As for what to do next, we can only see the moves.

Sun Yuan also sneered in his heart: This Sizhou city is in danger, Fang Richang, you don't think about how to defend the city and block Gao Yingxiang's northward escape route, but you want to design to earn me, saying that you are a villain is lifted, and this kind of person is not worthy of wearing a military uniform.
