Chapter 264: Iron Armor Steel Spear
After staying in Beijing for a few days, according to Xiao Yi's thoughts, he originally wanted to meet some Beijing officials, so that he could clear some ways up and down to make himself less difficult, but he didn't know until he had a long talk with Lu Xiangsheng.

Although he was treated very favorably by the emperor, to be honest, it was still just a small place to guard, and these Beijing officials didn't even pay attention to Lu Xiangsheng, the rectification of the three mansions, so how could they spend time meeting with Xiao Yi and taking care of Xiao Yi's affairs.
After listening to Lu Xiangsheng's words, Xiao Yi was even more disappointed in Jingshi, and he no longer thought about seeing Jingguan, he had to wait for these people to come to him on the pole.
Lu Xiangsheng will stay in Beijing for a few days, and Xiao will naturally facilitate Lu Xiangsheng to visit the streets and alleys of Beijing with his two younger brothers, Lu Xiangguan and Lu Xiangjin.
Speaking of Lu Xiangguan, Xiao Yijian saw that Lu Xiangsheng was still recommended by him, and when it came to the incident in Shacun, Lu Xiangguan was still embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yi went from a lowly man to his current position step by step, and was appreciated by Chongzhen, which was something he had never done.
During this period, Lu Xiangguan asked about the casualties of Xiao Yi's old brothers, and when he mentioned this, Xiao Yi and Shi Lu and Liu Sheng behind him were silent, and the old brothers with more than 100 people were now only left with these 30 or so people around them.
Lu Xiangsheng also sighed when he heard the conversation between the two, but then he looked at these people behind Xiao Yi, they all exuded a solemn aura, Lu Xiangsheng was also very surprised, and he had some questions about Xiao Yi's training method at that time, but he didn't ask, he just walked forward quietly.
If the white horse passes through the gap, the three days have suddenly passed, Xiao will also return to Ulzhou, and Lu Xiangsheng will also return to Sanfu to continue his feat.
Like last year, Lu Xiangsheng still sent Xiao Yi a word, Xiao Yi said goodbye to Lu Xiangsheng, and then said goodbye to Lu Xiangguan and Lu Xiangjin, Lu Xiangguan sighed: "This farewell, I don't know how many years it will be." ”
Xiao Yi smiled heartily: "It's okay, if the two brothers miss our brothers, you can come to my Ulzhou at any time, so that Xiao can do his best as a landlord!" ”
"Hahaha, you kid."
Lu Xiangguan laughed and patted Xiao Yi on the shoulder, and solemnly hugged his fist at Xiao Yi and his party, Xiao Yi returned the salute one by one, and turned over one by one.
Immediately after Xiao Yi turned around, a firm voice came: "There is no banquet in the world that will not be dispersed, take care!" Then he took Shi Lu and Liu Sheng and his party to Ulzhou and galloped.
Lu Xiang looked at Xiao Yi's back and sighed softly: "This son is only from a civilian family, but knowing so much is really unpredictable." ”
Lu Xiangsheng turned around: "It's definitely not a thing in the pool, what about the background of the people, young philosopher, I'm going to hurry." ”
……
Without the drag of the eunuchs and the Jinyi guards, the group galloped quickly with one person and two horses, and finally a few days later, Xiao Yi returned to Ulzhou City.
It is now the end of September of the third year of Chongzhen, and it is almost November after the release of the afterlife, and a year is almost over.
As expected, even after leaving for half a month, the affairs of the state city continued in an orderly manner.
The naturalization of the displaced people has been completed, and every family has been allocated new land, but it is now almost winter, and they can only cultivate the land first and wait for the spring of next year to cultivate.
With the assistance of the sergeants of the Zhenwei battalion, houses were erected, and after the battle, the city of Ulju was restored at a very fast pace.
Because the weather has turned cold, the sergeants of the Yongan Army have changed into brand new military uniforms, not to mention keeping warm, but also looking heroic, even the sergeants of the Zhenwei Battalion, each has a brand new mandarin duck jacket.
It is also due to the attachment of displaced people that the number of workers in all factories has increased several times, and the work efficiency has naturally increased exponentially.
After these years of continuous fighting, all the soldiers of the Yongan Army have been equipped with iron armor, and the pikemen and knife players have also been replaced with tiger guns and knives made of stainless steel, and the Yongan Army has finally become a real steel army.
After Xiao Yi returned to the garrison mansion, everyone saw Xiao Yi's big red official body, and when they heard that Xiao Yi was personally summoned by the emperor and appointed as a garrison, everyone showed shocked expressions.
Originally, when Xiao Yi went, everyone was still worried about it, but the emperor who didn't expect Xiao Yi to summon him in person, this is a great honor.
was promoted to a garrison, which also shows that except for a small part of Xiao Yi's various matters in Ulzhou, which still needs to be discussed with Wang Zhan, Xiao Yi has the right to deal with the rest of the matter, and Xiao Yi has more troops.
The sergeants of the Zhenwei Battalion are still only the identity of the people, and now that the number of soldiers under his command has been satisfied, there is no need to hide and hide, and they must be included in the establishment of officers and soldiers as soon as possible.
First, you can get food and salary from the imperial court, and secondly, the imperial court will allocate more ordnance, which is better than nothing.
Xiao Yi struck while the iron was hot, and immediately announced that he was going to form a cavalry battalion, he had been thinking about this matter for a long time, and after pondering again and again, he still decided to bring it up today.
As soon as the words came out, the hall was full of excited voices.
But Xiao also knew that the cavalry was so easy to organize, although the commander of the cavalry battalion had already been selected, and he had proved his strength for everyone for a long time, and he was actually the best candidate for this commander.
The armor of this cavalry is different from that of Ye Bu Hui, in Xiao Yi's eyes, Ye Bu is still just a light cavalry team, according to the idea of Mongolian light cavalry, each Ye Bu is only equipped with fine armor scimitars, and the primary task is only for reconnaissance and sentinel exploration.
In the field, the need is still heavy cavalry, and the cavalry battalion that Xiao Yi will form must all be covered with heavy armor, and according to the idea of Guanning cavalry and Houjin heavy cavalry, each cavalry should be equipped with some firearms for long-range firepower in addition to stainless steel tiger guns and stainless steel knives.
They will be used to break the formation in battle, and if there is a chance in the future, Xiao also wants to try, this cavalry formed by himself and the Houjin heavy cavalry go head-to-head.
It's good to let these self-righteous barbarians see that the Han people are not inferior to them on horseback!
The people deliberated back and forth for many days, and felt that the three-eyed gun was still the best firearm for cavalry, and that it was light to carry and well-made, and it could also be used as a hammer in close combat.
So Xiao also called Zhongyang, Zhongyang is a craftsman specializing in the production of three-eyed guns, the two talked for a long time that day, and Xiao Yi finally handed over the design and production of the three-eyed guns used by the cavalry to Zhongyang.
Zhong Yang was very excited about Xiao Yi's trust, and he seemed to have started the second spring of his life, and immediately returned to the workshop to call some craftsmen to start preparing, and the craftsmen were very excited after hearing the order of the guard.
A group of experienced veteran craftsmen worked together in the warm workshop, each with a lot of suggestions, and soon designed several new drawings of the cavalry that could be used with the three-eyed guns, which were constantly selected and improved, and soon put into production.
At the same time, the armor required by the cavalry has also been put into battle, but according to Xiao Yi's requirements, the toughness of these iron armors cannot be inferior to the heavy armor of Houjin, nor can they be too heavy, making the men and horses tired.
This task was handed over to Qi Haoguang and Wang Xiong, and after receiving the order, the two stayed in the factory all day with a group of old craftsmen, just thinking about how to make this kind of armor.
After a few days, Xiao Yi was inspecting the city pass, and the sergeant of the Jia Zhenwei battalion who was on duty saw the garrison coming, and they all cheered up with eighteen points, their bodies were straight, and Xiao Yi was also nodding constantly.
The sergeants of these Zhenwei battalions are no longer just the original loose and thin people's bravery, after two months of improved food in the barracks, coupled with the tempering of the last battle and daily drills, they have all changed, and their demeanor shows a heroic spirit.
The soldiers of the Yongan Army practiced in the barracks all day long, and had a seven-day and two-day holiday, which was unique in the Ming Dynasty, but the sergeants of the Zhenwei Battalion practiced every other day, which was also very rare, and it could be called an elite when pulled out.
