Early the next morning, the eldest princess and Gui Yingcha took their entourage to the school field in Fugu, Zhang Chu greeted them warmly at the door, and invited them to the review stand on the edge of the school field. is more enthusiastic about the eldest princess, and Gui Yingcha's skill level of killing people with his eyes has increased a lot.

The first to enter the school field was a team of cavalry, wearing the unique iron barrel-like armor of the security army, holding a snow-bright saber in their hands, neatly walking in front of the review stand, the horses walked in small steps, and the rows looked particularly neat.

Gui Yingcha carefully observed the cavalry of the security army, and at the same time was full of contempt for Zhang Chu, training soldiers just for the sake of good looks, not paying attention to actual combat at all, what is the use of horses walking in small steps, you can't run when you start a battle, you can't rush.

The next performance is to slash on horseback, a group of cavalry galloped past, rushed to the stake erected in front, and when they came closer, they used the momentum of the horse to cut at the stake with their sabers, and the thick stake of the bowl was broken in response.

Gui Yingcha applauded and exclaimed, "Not bad, not bad, really good!" But in his heart, he said: "The saber is really good, and these horsemen are just as good as they are in the Mongolian army."

Zhang Chu was happy when he heard Gui Yingcha's praise, and shook his head and bragged to the eldest princess about how brave his horse team was. "Next up is the archery show." It is said to be archery, but there is no trace of the target in the school field.

When Guiying was just confused, with Zhang Chu's shout, a team of soldiers actually carried out a dead pig, hung it on a wooden pillar in the school yard, and put a kind of iron bucket-like armor unique to the security army on the pig.

The command sounded, and the soldiers quickly dispersed, and not far away a row of soldiers picked up bows and arrows and shot three arrows at the dead pig in armor. If it is okay to ride a horse and slash or something, then these arrows can only be described as miserable. Although the arrows were all shot at the pigs, only a few were stuck on them, and the others fell to the ground. At such a level, he still took it out to perform, and Gui Yingcha expressed his admiration for the thickness of Zhang Chu's face.

Zhang Chu was unmoved, and said to the eldest princess enthusiastically: "Let's go down and have a look." ”

Everyone got off the review stand and followed Zhang Chu to the middle of the school field and walked to the unlucky pig. Seeing it more clearly from a close distance, only a few arrows were inserted into the armor alone, and they were not deeply inserted, Zhang Chu ordered someone to untie the armor, and saw that although there were a few blood holes in the pig's body, it was not enough to kill. Gui Yingqia couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, it wasn't that those people just now were not good at archery. If the security forces were to wear this kind of armor, the power of the Mongols' bows and arrows would be greatly reduced.

He couldn't help but glance around, this glance made him realize what a local tyrant is, the cavalry who walked past the review stand just now was still on the edge of the school grounds, and they were all wearing this kind of armor like an iron bucket, this armor should be made of stainless steel, just these stainless steels, how much does it cost, and how much labor does it cost, Zhang Chu actually took it to ordinary soldiers to wear.

Zhang Chu was very satisfied with the protective effect of the armor, and said to Gui Yingcha with a smile: "How is it?" The armor made by our security forces is okay, right? ”

Guiying is a real person, and what he does is what he does, so he said sincerely: "The protection of this armor is very good." ”

"Well, let's see how we break the armor." Zhang Chu said loudly to everyone.

Such good armor is broken, with what weapons? Gui Yingcha retreated to the side with everyone with doubts.

The officer leading the group gave the order, and out of the line came ten soldiers with muskets in hand, and raised their guns in a line at a distance of a stone's throw from the armor, and the shots rang out almost simultaneously, and the soldiers who fired were shrouded in gunsmoke.

The smoke dissipated slightly, and Zhang Chu led everyone to the front of the armor. Small holes appeared on the surface of the smooth armor, and the armor pieces were uncovered, and holes were also punched out of the pig's body inside, Zhang Chu took a small knife from the guard's hand, cut it along the hole, and dug it deep to see a small lead bullet embedded in it.

Guiying understands that if this hits a person's vital part, he will die. With such power that the security forces shot at a stone's throw away, it seemed that the archers would suffer against them. Gui Yingcha still has some understanding of firearms, there are also troops in the Ming army who use firearms, the biggest weakness of firearms is a wave of streams, can only shoot once, if you reload, it takes a long time, Ming soldiers almost fire a round of firearms and wait for the enemy to rush up and only be slaughtered.

The exercise continued, a row of wooden stakes was erected on the school ground, and a group of soldiers stood in three rows in the distance, and shot in turn with the captain's command, and the gunshots rang out continuously, causing sawdust to fly on the stakes.

As time went on, Gui Yingcha's heart completely cooled, and the musketeers of the security army were able to shoot continuously. If there were enough of them, even the cavalry would not be able to rush close to them.

As a soldier, Gui Yingcha is naturally thinking about how to fight against him, the shield is definitely not good, and with the armor-piercing ability of the bullet, the person behind the shield cannot survive. There was only a shield cart, and those hiding behind the shield cart rushed to the front, and the musketeers had no choice.

Reality bankrupted Gui Yingcha's idea, the musketeers of the security army stopped shooting, and some soldiers pulled up several cannons and fired at the stakes farther away, and the rumbling cannons rang out, and the shells smashed into the stakes, and the huge stakes broke in response. The shield cart or something couldn't hold up in front of the shells. After two rounds of firing, the soldiers began to pack their things, put the gun cart on the mule and horse, pulled it a short distance and stopped, re-set up the artillery, loaded and opened the cannon, and in a short time the cannon sound sounded again. This time the artillery carried out five rounds of fire before stopping. There are few wooden stakes left as targets.

The eldest princess had a question in her heart, and when the cannon stopped, she asked Zhang Chu: "Why do you want the artillery to fight for a while and change places?" ”

"They were afraid that someone would hit them with artillery." Zhang Chu's words are right, after the artillery fires, it is necessary to quickly shift the position to prevent the enemy's ambitious shelling, but that is the theory of later generations, and it does not have much significance for the current war.

Guiying knew exactly what Zhang Chu was going to show them, which meant that the artillery of the security army could move with the brigade on mule-drawn horses. The artillery carts are running all over the grassland, and they can fire artillery when they stop, and the speed is not comparable to that of the cavalry, so it is no problem to keep up with the infantry brigade.

The soldiers of the Security Army had been trained to reload very quickly, and it didn't take long to get down five rounds, which meant that the cavalry would have to suffer several rounds of blows when they rushed over. If Zhang Chu had gathered these few things demonstrated today to form an army, it would have been difficult for the Mongol cavalry to confront him. The advantage of the Mongol cavalry over the Han will disappear completely, and I don't know if Zhang Chu has such a little money to scare people.

"Zhang Dashuai's artillery and muskets are really powerful, I don't know if it is easy to train such a soldier?" Gui Ying just turned around and wanted to find out Zhang Chu's strength.

"This is very easy, I have now trained more than 30,000 foot soldiers and 10,000 cavalry, all of which use muskets and artillery, and under my rule, I can also mobilize more than 100,000 militiamen to participate in the battle at any time. Zhang Chu showed his family background by himself.

The eldest princess heard Zhang Chu's strength beside her, and thought to herself that it seemed that she really had to form an alliance with Zhang Chu, but if she wanted to form an alliance, she would have to make peace, and if Zhang Chu didn't give him some benefits like that, she would definitely not agree to form an alliance. But in my own opinion, Zhang Chu doesn't look like a big hero, and he doesn't look like a good person.

What can I do? Otherwise, let my sister come. Princess Celestia was there thinking nonsense. (To be continued.) )
