After Li Hongfei and his entourage left, the palace maid who spoke before finally couldn't help whispering: "It is said that this Li Menghui is the reincarnation of the God of War. ”

"Xiaoling, don't talk nonsense, how can anyone have three heads and six arms, isn't it a monster. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Princess Changping whispered.

"Isn't Nezha, the third son of the military god Li Jing, three heads and six arms? Li Jing is the god of war, he is the god of war, almost! The palace maid who was called Xiaoling said seriously.

"The Romance of the Gods" is the Ming Dynasty novelist Xu Zhonglin, written in the Wanli period, forty or fifty years ago, the common people are most fond of this kind of ghost and god story, so even the palace maid can know the allusions.

"You! I don't know what to think in my head all day long, Master Li is a real hero who defeated an army of 100,000 with 500 soldiers, but he is not a character made up in those commentaries. Princess Changping said with reverence.

It turned out that in order to let Li Hongfei smoothly take office as governor and improve the morale of the Ming army defending the city by the way, Zhu Youzhen had ordered someone to spread the word about Li Hongfei's landing battle at the south gate of Yangzhou.

If it weren't for the strict precautions in the city now, and the fact that there is no boat to cross the river, I am afraid that Duoduo and Azig on the other side would also know about Li Hongfei.

However, the rumors often go to the back, and they always turn sour, not only spreading Li Hongfei to the three-headed and six-armed "Nezha", but also increasing the number of enemies several times, directly from 30,000 to 100,000, and killing 100,000 Qing troops..........

In this regard, Li Hongfei felt that Yali Mountain was big, and there were many luck elements in the previous battle, and it was basically impossible to replicate it.

Now that Zhu Youzhen has put him on fire, Li Hongfei has to do everything he can.

No, before leaving the palace, he asked Wang Guoxing to take him and go to inspect the Shenji Battalion and the forbidden army.

Don't look at Zhu Youzhen's own frugality, but he is willing to spend money on the forbidden army, among the 20,000 forbidden troops, there are 5,000 elite armored cavalry and 15,000 elite armored infantry, which can be described as an army piled up with real money.

You must know that the cost of a single pair of infantry fine armor is 16 taels of silver, and with the corresponding weapons, it costs 20 taels to say the least, which is not counting the food and materials consumed in training elite armor soldiers.

Even after Xu Guangqi's improved fine armor, the weight of the full set is about twenty catties, such a weight is okay to wear for a while, long-term wear, it requires a lot of physical strength, in order for all soldiers to wear fine armor, food and nutrition must keep up, at least the rice has to be full.

Over the course of a year, the food consumed by each soldier is almost ten taels of silver, and counting the forbidden army's Yulu, 20,000 soldiers alone will cost Zhu Youzhen one million taels of silver.

And the war horse is a big money-burner, and the armor for 5,000 war horses is less than 1 million taels of silver, don't even think about it.

Just these two million taels of silver are smashed, it looks like a magnificent weapon, but it is really hard to say whether it can fight against the same number of Manchu Eight Banners.

This is also the fundamental reason why Li Hongfei only takes the all-firearms route, cavalry and elite armored infantry are really not something that a poor person like him can afford.

After reading the forbidden army, let's look at the 10,000 god machine battalion.

Li Hongfei's heart suddenly 10,000 heads of grass (harmony) mud horses galloped by............ What kind of firearms are these?

Zhu Youzhen followed Li Hongfei's proposal and turned the 10,000 Shenji Battalion into an all-firearms unit.

But the key to this is that the variety of firearms is too complete.

An infantry battalion and a chariot battalion, a total of more than 10,000 troops, equipped with as many as a dozen types of firearms, yes, not the type of firearm, but the type of firearm.

Li Hongfei discovered for the first time that there were so many types of firearms in the Ming Dynasty, and they were strange.

In the infantry barracks, the most common repeating rockets, self-generated firearms, three-eyed guns, etc., are regarded as the three-plate axes of today's firearms at long, medium and close ranges, which are necessary equipment.

But in addition to these three-plate axes, the Shenji Battalion is also equipped with a high-powered firearm similar to a "missile" like the "Divine Fire Flying Crow".

There is also the Crutch Gun: a repeating arquebus with a crank, 37.5 cm long, which uses a Franco-like reloading method and can fire three shots in a row at a range of 150 meters.

Thunderbolt: a single multi-barreled firearm, referring to similar firearms in Turkey, the largest can reach 18 tubes, using a fire rope to fire, plus the outer cover like a pipa, 187 cm long, weighing 2.5 kg, easy to carry, after firing, can also be used as a cold weapon.

The Thunderbolt is a combination of multiple arquebus barrels, after each shot of a bullet, the soldier only needs to turn the barrel, the firing port, to the other unfired barrel, can be fired.

In addition to its huge size and inability to move and shoot, this weapon is even more convenient than the revolver that Li Hongfei made, and it is no wonder that Bi Maokang looks down on the revolver.

Moreover, this thunderbolt not only integrates the barrel of an arquebus, but also has a round shield on it, and the bottom is used to support the soldier's aiming and shooting, and it is a tomahawk.

Seeing this kind of weapon not only reminded Li Hongfei of the super weapon invented by Da Vinci in the Xingye movie, which combines "eighteen weapons together".

However, the weapon has a lot of efficacy, and there are also many troubles, such as the soldier after shooting, facing the shield and axe, it is easy to form a "choice difficulty".

(Thunderbolt is really a great invention, interested children's shoes can be Baidu, let me laugh for a while.......... ）

In addition, there are five thunder god machines, guns, and ten-eyed guns.......... and so on, seeing these things, Li Hongfei really doesn't know what strange things our ancestors can make!

Where is this Shenji Battalion, it is simply the "Ming Dynasty Firearms Exhibition Conference"!

"Ahem, by the way, you are the commander of the Shenji Battalion, do you know the range, rate of fire, power, and corresponding battles and cooperation methods of these firearms?" Li Hongfei asked Wang Guoxing.

He knew that the other party could not understand the technical term "weapon parameters", so he could only talk more.

"Why do you need to know so much. The Shenji battalion fights, not all of them are in the front, the horse team is in the back, the forward must be sparse, the rear team must be dense, the front is sparse, the formation is dense, the first is to destroy its front, and then to ride its strong! Wang Guoxing talked eloquently.

According to his line of thinking, before the start of the battle, the machine gun artillery column is in front of the whole formation, and the shooters should keep a certain distance between each shooter in order to reload ammunition, carry out round shooting, and destroy the enemy's forward.
