Chapter 290: Mighty

"Are you serious?"

Hu Zongxian exclaimed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Seriously, Lord Hu." Qi Jiguang said seriously.

Qi Jiguang, who was sent to the rescue, came back to recover his life, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Hu Zongxian was surprised.

Li Weiguo led a group of soldiers and horses in Tongxiang to eliminate nearly 1,000 Japanese pirates, and beheaded 903 of them!

I think that Hu Zongxian has been in charge of Zhejiang for so long, and he has rarely seen such a military feat!

This Li Weiguo is simply shocking to others!

"Really?" Hu Zongxian groaned slightly: "Isn't it because he is your unfinished son-in-law, so he will cover up?" ”

Hu Zongxian knew that Qi Jiguang was a person, and the Qi family was relatively strict, and he would never joke with himself on this military matter.

So Hu Zongxian also teased him about Li Weiguo and Qi's little girl.

Don't ask Hu Zongxian how he knew, in the Ming Dynasty, Jinyiwei was pervasive, Hu Zongxian's family was born in Jinyiwei, and this person is in charge of Zhejiang, what is going on in Zhejiang, he will not know?

"Humph!" Speaking of this, Qi Jiguang was angry.

I really thought that my family was unlucky, my daughter didn't listen to her parents' orders, and she actually ran to make a private agreement with that Li Weiguo for life! It just doesn't make sense.

"But what the humble post said about the war is true." Qi Jiguang gritted his teeth and said, although Qi Jiguang was very angry with this pig who arched his own water spirit cabbage in his bones, but when it came to business, Qi Jiguang still didn't dare to be sloppy, so he said.

"How many soldiers and horses are there in Tongxiang?"

Hu Zongxian also returned to the attitude of talking about business and asked.

"Three hundred." Qi Jiguang replied truthfully.

"Hmm." Hu Zongxian stroked his beard: "I believe that Li Weiguo said that he mobilized the whole city to defend the city and kill the enemy desperately, so he has such a feat, right?" It's hard to think about this kid, I don't think this kid really has two brushes. ”

Alas, it's hard for this kid, it's only so big, and he carries so many things on his shoulders.

How can it be easy for the people of the whole city to have their lives tied to him?

Well, the children are teachable.

Hu Zongxian sighed secretly.

A thousand Japanese soldiers, with the weak soldiers of Tongxiang, this guy can actually defend the city and annihilate the enemy army!

I believe that this kid must have done a lot of homework in Tongxiang these days, otherwise how could Tongxiang be so impregnable?

Hu Zongxian is now more and more interested in Li Weiguo.

"Then what tactics did Li Weiguo use to defend the city; Mobilize the people of Tongxiang to kill so many widows? ”

Hu Zongxian then asked.

The soldiers of Tongxiang are so weak, Hu Zongxian, as the governor of Zhejiang, knows best in his heart, and believes that Li Weiguo must have made some clever plan, otherwise where would there be such a result?

I don't think this kid is still a good hand at playing intrigue and trickery, and he is simply a reincarnation.

"Adult ......"

Hu Zongxian's words made Qi Jiguang a little helpless, and he didn't know how to explain it.

"What's wrong?" Hu Zongxian is a shrewd person, looking at Qi Jiguang's appearance, he seems to have something to say, and he can't help but have a bad premonition in his heart, could it be that Li Weiguo is playing some tricks?

Looking at Qi Jiguang's unspeakable appearance, could it be that Li Weiguo did something illegal and undisciplined?

"Yuan Jing, how did Li Weiguo do it, you must tell me to hear it!" Hu Zongxian couldn't help but be more interested, so he said.

In fact, if Li Weiguo really used any bad method, Hu Zongxian would not necessarily blame him, at the moment the Japanese invaded in a big way, it was already a great merit to be able to defend Tongxiang, and this Li Weiguo also eliminated more than 1,000 Japanese criminals! More than 900 of the first level!

With such a great credit, even if Li Weiguo was really in a hurry and did something that violated the law and discipline, Hu Zongxian could not bear to punish him.

But when you become an official, you naturally don't want to be a deaf and blind person, and although you don't plan to pursue some things, you still have to know better.

"My lord, Li Weiguo's military exploits are not obtained by defending the city."

Qi Jiguang was a little embarrassed.

"What?"

Hu Zongxian was shocked.

On that day, Governor Hu sent a messenger to warn this Li Weiguo to close the city gate and not leave, but this kid actually told the messenger to his face that he would rely on field warfare to eliminate the Japanese invaders!

As a result, Hu Zongxian was furious and urgently ordered Qi Jiguang to go north to aid Tongxiang.

However, Hu Zongxian is actually just a short-circuit in his brain when Li Weiguo is a child, how can you, a boy who has never led a soldier, defeat the Japanese Kou?

And at the moment with such amazing military exploits, if you Li Weiguo didn't lead a group of Tongxiang soldiers and horses to defend the city, how could you rely on field warfare?

"This battle is a great victory for Yangshubang, and it is in this Yangshubang that Li Weiguo eliminated thousands of Japanese people." Qi Jiguang said.

Hu Zongxian quickly looked it up on the map, and soon, he found this place called Yang Shubang.

"This is it?"

This place is very small, and it is difficult to find it on the map, and Hu Zongxian asked in surprise after finding it.

This poplar is a plain, and there is no cover at all, why did Li Weiguo choose the place of battle here?

"Yes, Li Weiguo's battle is to use field warfare to eliminate 1,000 Japanese robbers, and he has more than 900 heads!"

Qi Jiguang said: "This is the battle report he reported to you, let me bring it with you." ”

Hu Zongxian hurriedly opened the fold, and when he saw it, he was shocked.

Did this kid really rely on field warfare to get so much credit?

Oh, my God! Is this kid eating the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard?

"What kind of tactics did he use to destroy so many pirates?"

Hu Zongxian desperately suppressed the excitement and incredulity in his heart, and asked.

At this time, Governor Hu's tone of voice was as usual, but his heart was as difficult to calm down as the waves of the sea.

In the plains, Li Weiguo only relied on his own 300 soldiers and horses to eliminate 1,000 Japanese pirates!

White reincarnation?

"Yuan Jing, can your soldiers and horses do this?" Hu Zongxian asked in surprise.

"This ......" Qi Jiguang was a little embarrassed: "Maybe it's okay." ”

"This is that Li Weiguo has never brought soldiers and horses for a day!" Qi Jiguang said: "I'm afraid it's not easy for my soldiers and horses to achieve such a record, and my soldiers are carefully selected from that place of obligation, but Li Weiguo relies on those old, weak, sick and disabled people in Tongxiang......"

"How the hell did he do it?" Hu Zongxian felt a little incredible.

If it weren't for Qi Jiguang's own words, he wouldn't have believed it.

Even if the three battalions of the Beijing Army were brought to Zhejiang, they would never be able to create such a record!

Hu Zongxian knows what the Ming army is like now, so he naturally doesn't need others to say much.

But such a miracle actually came in the hands of this child who was only fourteen or fifteen years old and had not brought soldiers and horses for a day?

"What Li Weiguo uses is the method of firearms!" Qi Jiguang said.

"Firearms?" Hu Zongxian groaned.

"Yes." Qi Jiguang said: "At present, there are many types of firearms in the Tongxiang army. ”

Qi Jiguang said: "I asked Li Weiguo for some, if Lord Hu is interested, the lower officials can bring the adults to see, and there are ......

Li Weiguo's nine hundred and three Japanese heads were also brought by the officials, and the kid said that it was as a tribute to Lord Hu's kindness. ”

"This kid ......," Hu Zongxian stroked his beard and smiled.

Qi Jiguang said that this led Hu Zongxian to the army, and when he said hello, the sergeant understood, and opened a few large wooden boxes.

"These are the heads of the widows that Li Weiguo obtained?"

Although he already knew the result, when the battle exploits were really placed in front of Hu Zongxian, it was still difficult for him to believe it.

The heads of the boxes in front of them have all been made of lime owls, and their faces still have the hideousness they had before they died, with white teeth and horror or unwillingness in their eyes.

More than nine hundred heads are glaring at you with such eyes, which makes Hu Zongxian a little uncomfortable, but more than that, he is still excited!

grabbed a head casually, and the bun was a Japanese bun; The hair stubble is old; The face of the Japanese is covered in water, face up.

"My lord, I have tested all the lowly positions one by one, and they are all real widows!"

Qi Jiguang confirmed.

Hu Zongxian checked a few casually, and found that there was nothing wrong, so he dropped the head in his hand, and it was difficult to calm down in his heart.

Did Li Weiguo really kill more than 900 Japanese in Tongxiang?

The evidence in front of him is ironclad, this is Li Weiguo's military exploits!

At present, the Ming Dynasty is weak, especially in Zhejiang, there are many cases of dozens of Japanese robbers passing through the state and county and no one dares to stop them.

But in this Tongxiang, which was like a lamb to be slaughtered, thousands of would-be pirates were slaughtered in one fell swoop! Besides, it's in such an open slope as Poplar Hama!

If my Zhejiang soldiers and horses can be like today's Tongxiang Army, then how can the Japanese invaders still be able to jump out like this in Zhejiang?

Is there any danger that Daming will have this coastal defense slack?

Three hundred Tongxiang soldiers and horses wiped out thousands of Japanese soldiers in one battle!

Hu Zongxian's mood could not be calm for a long time.

Hu Zongxian has been in charge of Zhejiang for so long and knows military affairs.

Anything can happen on the battlefield, every man has the dream of making contributions on the battlefield, everyone wants to make a name for themselves on the battlefield, but how many people can really do it?

The Tongxiang soldiers, who were sluggish before, are now only because they went to a Li Weiguo, and the first nine hundred are like chopping melons and vegetables! Such earth-shaking changes, how many people in the Ming Dynasty can do it?

Okay, so how did Li Weiguo do this?

Hu Zongxian glanced at the big wooden box full of the heads of the Japanese in front of him a few more times, and said to Qi Jiguang: "Quick, lead this official to take a look at this Tongxiang firearm." ”

Since Li Weiguo is using this firearm to create such a feat, I believe that this firearm must also be a rare treasure!

Otherwise, how can you be so strong?

Without the weapons at hand, Hu Zongxian didn't believe that Li Weiguo could control this weak Tongxiang soldiers and horses to kill so many would-be robbers!

"Yes!"

Speaking of firearms, Qi Jiguang was also a little excited.

The Southern Army is good at using firearms, and Qi's army also has a lot of firearms, but Qi Jiguang can't imagine that firearms can still be used like this!

Although Qi is a general who attaches great importance to firearms, in Qi Jiguang's array, firearms are only auxiliary things after all, and the decisive victory in the battle mainly depends on the cooperation between various sergeants and those cold weapons.

To put it bluntly, the Qi family's army is actually still dominated by cold weapons, and bird guns are mainly used as long-range shooting assistance and intimidation.

But Li Weiguo's formation was different.

Different from his tactics, in today's Ming Dynasty, it is simply a revolution!

The huge Tongxiang army is all equipped with firearms!

His battle is the key to victory or defeat, mainly in this firearm!

The Qi family has been fighting wars all year round, and they know this truth best.

This is definitely not a change in the proportion of firearms, but a revolution in the tactics of war!

Man-hand firearms, extensive artillery ...... In this way, the army became a group of musketeers and artillerymen, and the conduct of the battle and the supply of logistical baggage became very different from before.

Just imagine, the opponents you fight with are all armed with muskets and cannons, and if you accidentally get your head blown off!

……

On the way back, Qi Jiguang was extremely excited.

After decades in the army, Qi Jiguang never thought that the original battle could be fought like this!

"Then Li Weiguo's army really all the sergeants are armed with firearms?"

Hu Zongxian is well-informed, but there are very few armies in the Ming Dynasty that have such a way of fighting.

This is also the case with the Jingjun Shenji Battalion, which has the widest variety of firearms in the army.

Not all the sergeants in the Shenji Battalion use firearms, in fact, half or even more of the sergeants use cold weapons for defense tasks.

But now this Li Weiguo is actually equipped with firearms, where are the big knives and spears?

Although the firearm is powerful, it is used by the Ming army because of its cumbersome operation and unreliable, but it does not dare to trust its life on it.

This Li Weiguo is doing this now, isn't it a sword going sideways?

"This is the firearms used by Li Weiguo in this battle, and the last general asked for it, one came to observe, and the other was also for the review of Lord Hu."

arrived, Qi Jiguang explained.

"This thing Li Weiguo called him to be a flintlock musket, and each of the three hundred sergeants in the army had one."

Qi Jiguang picked up a musket and said.

Hu Zongxian is also an expert in this firearm, and after checking it for a long time, he praised it: "Good things, even more wonderful than that bird!" ”

"My lord, this musket is easier to operate than a bird's gun, and it is more powerful!" Qi Jiguang also praised.

The most subtle thing about the flintlock musket is that it discards the sneering and burning arquebus, making the process of firing easier and more reliable, and anyone can see the beauty of this musket at a glance.

Try it, it's easy to operate and powerful.

"This is for the tiger squatting cannon!"

The Tiger Squat Cannon is the protagonist of Poplar Bang's victory.

When he surrounded the Japanese invaders, Li Weiguo used this tiger squat cannon to kill and injure a large number of Japanese invaders.

The tiger squat cannon is not heavy, only a few hundred catties, and it can be disassembled separately, like a mortar in later generations.

"This, it's a grenade! ……”

In the Ming Dynasty, China already had grenades, and Qi Jiguang took Hu Zongxian to check the firearms in the Tongxiang army one by one.

Grenades, mines, Kamui Invincible General Cannon......

Numerous.

"There are very few knife and axe hands or pikemen in Li Wei****, the whole army operates firearms, carries a simple knife at the waist, and when the firearms crackle in wartime, they draw their swords and rush into the enemy formation......"

Qi Jiguang briefly introduced the scene of the battle in Yangshubang that day.

Hu Zongxian groaned after hearing this, and his face was serious: "Mighty! Hit my Ming military might! (To be continued.) )
