Chapter 54: Pang Yue's Determination
At the end of June of the second year of Longwu, the school field outside the city of Ganzhou Town
On a field on a hill across from the school grounds, a group of non-commissioned officers of the Ganzhou Town Artillery Team were training. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
By the end of June, the Ganzhou Town Artillery Corps had seven one-pounder guns and four three-pounder guns, plus the original general guns and exterminating guns, raising a new level of firepower. In addition, Pang Yue also adjusted the establishment of the artillery team. Each gun is organized into a gun group, and the members of each gun group have a clear division of labor, including a team leader, a gun commander, a number of gunners, porters, and shield soldiers responsible for guarding, etc., and are equipped with one or two pack horses according to the weight of the gun.
In addition, in order to facilitate distance measurement, Pang Yue also deliberately proposed a new set of measurement unit system (of course, it is not new to later generations), such as stipulating that three feet and one inch are one meter, one meter is one hundred centimeters, one centimeter is ten millimeters, and a circumference angle is three hundred and sixty degrees, and let the craftsmen make a batch of corresponding measuring tools. Faced with the new set of measurement units proposed by Pang Yue, the officers and soldiers and craftsmen felt very new at first, but later they gradually discovered that this new set of units was more refined than the original zhang, ruler, and inch, so they began to learn this new unit system one after another.
After the new establishment and measurement units were formulated, the artillery team plunged into intense training in accordance with Pang Yue's instructions, practicing the operation of artillery, the coordination of artillery crew members, and the cooperation of various artillery ancestors, so as to form combat effectiveness as soon as possible.
"Hurry up! You damn it! Margio, clad in iron armor but without a helmet, roared loudly, and on either side of him, the artillery non-commissioned officers pushed the cannons forward.
"Fifty more meters!" Margio's attitude is very serious, and after more than half a year of study, he has been able to communicate and issue passwords in Chinese.
At present, Margio not only serves as the technical adviser of the Ordnance Bureau, but also has another position - the chief instructor of the artillery team. Although he really wanted to become the supreme commander of the artillery in Ganzhou Town, he never got his wish because he did not thoroughly figure out the issue of naturalization. However, after such a few days of getting along, the artillery officer Wang Juntao has long been impressed by Margio's skills, and he is almost obedient to him in training, and Margio is also very useful to this feeling, and often unconsciously goes deep into the role of the commander and can't extricate himself, but hangs Wang Juntao aside.
"You sons of bitches are like turtles crawling! When you go to the battlefield, do you want the barbarians to cut off your heads? Oh my God, you guys are a disgrace to the artillerymen! Seeing that one of the artillery crews was advancing a little slower, Margio rushed forward with a lunge and kicked one of the soldiers in the ass, kicking him into the mud.
The soldier who was kicked down knew how powerful this foreign devil was, and he didn't dare to show his displeasure at all, so he hurriedly got up and continued to follow the artillery crew. After Margio's kick, the other members of the gun crew were also frightened and increased their speed by a few points, and the wheels of the gun truck splashed with mud spots on the ground after the rain.
In the distance, Pang Yue, Zhang Yunli, and Tian Shizun were observing all this.
Seeing Margio's actions, Pang Yue couldn't help but smile and said: "This Margio is quite serious, it seems that there is nothing wrong with letting him be the instructor of the artillery team!" ”
Zhang Yunli couldn't help laughing: "My lord, I think this Ma He Ao completely regards himself as an officer of the artillery team!" You see, Wang Juntao's kid is now an idler, sitting on the side and watching the excitement! ”
This remark once again attracted the laughter of Pang Yue and Tian Shizun, and even a few pro-soldiers standing not far away were infected by this atmosphere.
"Although Margio is a Tessie, he seems to have a unique way of training artillery." After squinting his eyes at the artillery team soldiers in training, Tian Shizun twisted his beard and said with a smile, "If you can get rid of prejudice and use your talents to everyone, you will definitely be able to develop our town's artillery team into a strong force." …,
Pang Yue looked ahead and nodded, smiling silently. From the scene of the intense training of the soldiers, he seemed to have seen the glorious tomorrow of the Ganzhou Town Artillery Team.
"My lord," after a while, Tian Shizun suddenly remembered another thing, "Now that the soldiers are training hard, he will definitely be able to make new achievements on the battlefield one day." It's just that at present, the Qing captives have been moving southward day by day, and the situation is becoming more and more critical, so I am afraid that it is a little inappropriate for Your Majesty to stay in Fujian! ”
Hearing this, Pang Yue's heart couldn't help but tighten, and he had been worrying about it all these days. Seeing that the two "chasing" soldiers and horses sent by He Tengjiao were really as "fast" as recorded in the history books, his heart was even more anxious. If this time the tragedy is still repeated, causing Emperor Longwu to suffer an accident, then he will never be at ease.
"Alas, I don't know how many families and baggage Hao Yongzhong and Zhang Xianbi carried on the march," Pang Yue sighed and shook his head, "I haven't walked out of Huguang for two months!" ”
"It's slower than a tortoise!" Zhang Yunli added angrily, "I really don't know if they want to meet or refuse to drive!" ”
"But you don't have to worry. As a courtier of the Ming Dynasty, I will never let Your Majesty have any accidents! Pang Yue's tone became firm, "Regarding this matter, I have sent several letters to Lord Zhu before, asking him to persuade His Majesty not to pin all his hopes on Huguang Ying's soldiers and horses, or to leave Fujian as soon as possible!" ”
"Wait...... Ten days," Pang Yue thought for a moment and continued, "If there is no news of His Majesty's departure yet!" Then I will lead the army to Yanping to meet the driver! ”
"My lord, this is a bit inappropriate!" Hearing Pang Yue say this, Tian Shizun hurriedly persuaded, "Leading the army to go to Xingzai without being called is a big taboo!" Your Majesty can be reminded in other ways not to leave a handle to disturb the Holy Driver for those young people! ”
"Mr. Zijing is right, but the current situation does not allow me to wait for the future!" Pang Yue said, "As long as Your Majesty can be safe and sound, what can I do even if I suffer some criticism?" What's more, justice is at ease in the hearts of the people, and right and wrong have their own justice! There are some things that cannot be denied by one or two distortions. ”
At this time, Pang Yue has already decided, this time, he can no longer be a spectator! No matter what the cost! His previous experience had already taught him how funny and sad the role of the spectator was, and how painful it was for him to feel. If you still watch the tragedy happen this time like before, it is better to commit suicide to thank the world.
"My lord, you are the head of a town, and many affairs in Ganzhou Town are inseparable from you, if it is really a last resort, it is better for your subordinates to go!" Zhang Yunli persuaded.
"Needless to say!" Pang Yue waved his hand, "It is precisely because I am the chief soldier of Ganzhou that I should take my own responsibility even more!" This matter is decided, don't mention it again! ”
Seeing that Pang Yue was so determined, Zhang Yunli and Tian Shizun had no choice but to give up.
At the beginning of July, Emperor Longwu finally lost patience with Huguang's "welcome" soldiers and horses, and decided to transfer another army to escort Huguang.
But at this moment, an incident delayed Emperor Longwu's decision: Empress Zeng gave birth to the emperor's eldest son. This good news made Emperor Longwu, who was over forty years old and had no children, almost ecstatic, named the emperor's eldest son Zhu Linyuan, and therefore gave officials at all levels additional rewards and banquets to celebrate. As for the transfer, Emperor Longwu put it aside for the time being.
Seeing this situation, Zhu Dadian, Lu Zhenfei, and Yushi Qian Bangqi and other officials wrote one after another, persuading Emperor Longwu to focus on the overall situation, set off as soon as possible, and it was not too late to celebrate when the situation calmed down.
But Emperor Longwu, who had just become a father, seemed to be carried away by this sudden sense of happiness, and rejected the proposal of Zhu Dadian and others on the grounds that the prince had just descended and was not suitable for the fatigue of traveling far away.
In this regard, although Zhu Dadian and others were anxious, they were helpless.
At the same time, after sweeping away the remnants of the Lu Jian State, the Qing army continued to move south, and the Huguang "Yingjia" army was still squirming step by step with the original "god speed", and the situation became more complicated.
