"Wow! It's beautiful! As Lian Zining entered the back house of the town guard mansion, he saw the splendid plum blossoms and a sea of yellow flowers blooming all over the mountains, and Qiwei exclaimed in surprise.

She walked briskly over to a flowering tree, pulled the branch down, and sniffed the aroma on it.

Under the light gray sky, a red-haired and snow-skinned woman gently sniffed the goose-yellow buds.

Time will freeze with this, and this situation and this scene can be included in the painting.

Lian Zining saw that she was innocent, and she was in a good mood, born in this sea of flowers, and there was such a red-haired Valkyrie-like girl standing beside her, who was intrigued and deceitful, and seemed to be far away from herself.

After a while, when she had had enough, he took her to the mountain house.

Sister Kang Su was shocked when they saw that Lian Zining had brought such a tall foreign woman.

Lian Zining smiled: "This is Miss Qiwei, Francis, well, you will call her Qiwei in the future." ”

Sister Kang Su hurriedly saluted: "I've seen Miss Qiwei." ”

Qi Wei was a little at a loss, and just waved her hand: "Hello, in the future, please take care of me." ”

"Lots of care?" Kang Su's eyes wandered, and he looked at Lian Zining suspiciously, Lian Zining waved his hand: "Don't think about it, Miss Qiwei is proficient in the art of battle formation, and I asked her for advice this time." ”

Kang Su nodded and said with a smile: "The master is hungry, right?" Do you want to pass the rice? ”

Lian Zining said: "Well, let's make ten dishes, and they should be lighter." ”

Kang Su's heart was a little sour, does the master like this foreign woman so much? You usually like to eat heavy dishes.

I felt sour, but I still answered, Kang Ling was still younger, not so much thought, looking at Qi Wei was very curious, I wanted to talk, but I didn't dare, I was very cute.

Lian Zining asked about the recent affairs, Kang Ling answered them one by one, and said: "The news from the big camp is that Feng Yan Baihu has brought people to Jiushan Town, found a place with dangerous terrain by the sea, recruited craftsmen, and began to build a military camp and a beacon tower. ”

Lian Zining nodded, the land of six counties, the sea area is vast, the coastline is long, and the rebellion of the Japanese invaders has not subsided over the years, although the most common invasion of the Japanese invaders is the rich areas in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but there are also some here in Shandong. Since he was the town guard of the six counties, he had the responsibility to defend the territory, so he naturally had to take on this responsibility, but after all, he was weak in numbers, so he had to send a hundred officers and soldiers to station on the gentle coastline where the Japanese were most likely to land.

Qi Wei listened for a while, and suddenly interjected: "I know what you said about the beacon tower, it is a great invention. ”

Lian Zining smiled: "I have been in China for 5,000 years, and there are many great inventions, so I will take you to see and understand in the future." ”

After a while, a few maids came up with food boxes, Kang Su set the table and began to arrange vegetables, Qiwei looked at her elegant movements with envy, their movements were very beautiful, like wisteria swaying in the wind, she wanted to learn for a long time, but she couldn't learn it.

After setting up the meal, Kang Su pulled two chairs over, but Lian Zining smiled and said, "You guys also come to eat together." ”

Seeing that she was about to refuse, she said with a straight face: "If you don't eat it, won't these dishes be wasted?" ”

Kang Su's heart was sweet, it turned out that the master only asked for this light meal for us, but I blamed him.

Although they ate together, the sisters still couldn't let go, and they rarely used chopsticks, just gave Lian Zining and Qiwei cloth vegetables.

Lian Zining ate less, most of them were wiped out by Qi Wei, God is pitiful, how has this little girl ever eaten such exquisite and delicious dishes in her life? I almost swallowed the plate. With food stuffed in his mouth, he slurred his mouth and said, "Delicious, delicious!" ”

Full of wine and food, Qi Wei leaned back on the chair with no temperament, patted her bulging belly, and moaned comfortably: "I have never eaten such a delicious dish in my life!" My lord, you Ming people are really good at enjoying it, how do you make these dishes? I almost swallowed my tongue. ”

Lian Zining took a sip of tea and asked, "What do you drink?" Tea or coffee? ”

"Do you have coffee here?" Qi Wei sat up straight all of a sudden.

Lian Zining nodded. Coffee has long been transmitted to Europe, and then from European caravans to China, Lianji Supermarket has entered a batch, but I didn't expect the sales in the capital to be very good. Chinese people love bitterness, coffee, a drink with a strong bitter and fragrant aftertaste, is very in line with the values of the literati, and although the price is very expensive, many people still flock to it. The little sister remembered that Lian Zining was also a great scribe, so she also sent him a pack.

However, Lian Zining didn't like this thing very much, he didn't like it in his previous life, and he hated it even more in his later life, so he kept it there, and he asked this question at this time.

Lian Zining instructed Kang Ling to take the ground coffee, brew it and serve it, with a plate of rock sugar attached.

Qi Wei took a deep sip of the aroma of coffee, then put the rock candy in it, and said to Lian Zining with a smile: "My lord, I found that you are really a very careful person. The people around you must be very happy! ”

Lian Zining was noncommittal.

The aromas of tea and coffee are mixed together and intertwined into a thick patch.

"There are two most typical infantry phalanxes in Europe, one is the Spanish infantry phalanx, and the other is the Swiss phalanx, I don't know much about the Spanish phalanx, so I will only tell you about the Swiss infantry phalanx. Ten years earlier, in the mercenary war, 2,500 Swiss infantry had suffered a crushing defeat to 6,000 Spanish soldiers, but they had suffered tremendous casualties, resulting in the deaths of at least 1,500 Spanish soldiers. I think the Swiss phalanx are the best, although they lost, but that's because they didn't have enough long-range firepower. ”

Kivi said in a slightly exotic voice: "The Swiss Legion now uses the tactics of dense phalanxes, which have earned the Swiss infantry the title of the strongest infantry in Europe in the last fifty years.

The core of the Swiss phalanx was infantry with extra-long spears. Most of these soldiers have been playing with guns since childhood, and that's how I spent my childhood. The standard armament of pikemen was a 20-foot spear, which was about two zhang long in Ming terms of measurement. The head of the spear is a sleeve about five feet long to prevent the spear from being cut off, and the total length is about two feet and four feet. Every Swiss pikeman was armed with a one-handed sword for melee combat, we Swiss were poor and had to work as mercenaries to earn money, and only the soldiers in the front 2-3 rows of the phalanx were equipped with helmets and cuirass, and the soldiers in the back were completely defenseless. But I think that with your strength, you must be able to equip soldiers with armor.

However, our Swiss pikemen have a very effective method of defending against arrows, and the soldiers after the 3rd platoon will hold their spears on the ground, and then keep shaking, which can shoot about 50%-75% of the bows and arrows and 10%-15% of the crossbow arrows thrown by the enemy to the place, but the defense against crossbow arrows fired directly is basically ineffective.

The Swiss formation was fronted with 4 to 5 platoons of pikemen, arranged horizontally at distances of 1 meter, with the width of the queue depending on the terrain.

In addition to pikemen, there were crossbowmen and halberdmen. When attacking, crossbowmen are placed on the flanks of pikemen, while halberders are responsible for protecting crossbowmen and killing enemies at close range; When defensive, it is placed in the center of the phalanx. We were the first in Europe to adopt marching drums to ensure the rhythm of the phalanx, and the way orders were given was a combination of drums and flags.

The Swiss phalanx is generally not readable to fight, and its configuration method is at least three independent phalanxes, which can not only adapt to complex terrain, but also protect the flanks of each phalanx in battle. ”

is worthy of being a professional, speaking of this topic, Qi Wei spoke eloquently and in an orderly manner, but just a few words, let Lian Zining have a basic understanding of the Swiss phalanx.

"Well, the general outline of the Swiss phalanx, I already understand it, Chivi, after you go back, write down the chances of the Swiss army and some specific tactics, these are necessary. In addition, as you can see, our situation here is very different from that of Switzerland, after all, we have more and better muskets and light artillery, so we have to solve this problem, how to combine spearmen and firearms perfectly, and develop effective tactics. ”

"That's nature, my lord, I have an idea. You see......"

Lian Zining seemed to have returned to his previous life when he was working on projects with his mentor, sitting opposite each other in the library with a few classmates, flipping through those old books, talking eloquently, refuting each other, and trying to prove that he was right...... Before you know it, an afternoon has passed.

And just when Lian Zining and Qiwei were discussing the improvement of the Swiss phalanx, a conspiracy against him was gradually taking shape.

―――――― dividing line―――――― Yangxin County, county school.

It was the morning, at this point, it should be the teacher giving a lecture, the students listening carefully, and the county school compound being extremely quiet. But now, dozens of students from Yangxin County School are gathered in the courtyard, and there is a lot of emotion.

In the middle, two desks set up a table, on which a young man in a green shirt was raising his arms and shouting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you are good friends with me, the two of us have lived next to each other since childhood, have been friends for 20 years, study together, take scientific examinations together, and show talents together! If you say who knows him best in the world, I say second, no one dares to say first! An Jiaxing, surnamed Gwen Liang and mellow, is not good at words, and his wife raised his eyebrows, if he said that he would do something that hurts nature and reason, violates the law and discipline, it is really ridiculous. ”

"But it's such a good person, just because the dog official Lian Zining fell in love with his lady and asked him to offer it with both hands, An Jiaxing naturally didn't obey, he was a square person, and he scolded him! The dog official held a grudge, and from then on, he pressed him in many ways, first threatening to remove his fame, and then to exile him! Just a few days ago, the dog official wanted to make a big deal, and actually snatched An Jiaxing's lady into the house, An Jiaxing said yesterday that he couldn't bear it, and went to seek justice, as a result, as a result! ”

The hot-blooded young people in the audience who don't know the world, only know how to read the books of the sages hard, and have a very excessive sense of justice are already boiling their blood that makes him teased, and they all ask loudly at this time: "What happened?" ”
