Just as Zhu Yuao, the king of Tang, was meticulously questioning Pang Yue and Ganzhou Town, Zheng Zhilong of Fuzhou and He Tengjiao of Changsha also learned of the news that the Qing army had been repulsed under the city of Ji'an. The result www.biquge.info of more than 1,000 casualties and 5,000 enemies annihilated in Ganzhou Town was like a boulder that was suddenly thrown into the water, which made Zheng and He stunned.

This Pang Yue still has such ability? Zheng Zhilong was shocked and worried, if this result was not mixed with water, it meant that a new strong man and a new strong army had risen on his "couch side". In any case, this is not a good thing for Zheng Zhilong, who is used to being the overlord of one side. However, Zheng Cai, who learned the news, did not care, but comforted Zheng Zhilong again: What Pang Yue is facing is just some rabble, if the Zheng family army goes out, how can it be to behead five thousand to achieve the result? When he said this, Zheng Cai looked confident, and seemed to have forgotten who was ordered to rescue Jianchang Yishi last year, but he did not move in Shanguan, and when he heard that the Qing army was coming, he pulled up the team and ran back. These words also seemed to be very effective, and even Zheng Zhilong couldn't help but laugh when he heard it, but after laughing, Zheng Zhilong realized that he had to do something.

At the same time, He Tengjiao, who was in Changsha, also expressed his views on this matter, "Young and frivolous, so happy and ignorant of the height of the sky, it will become a great disaster for the country in the future!" This is the definition he gave Pang Yue.

Unlike Zheng Zhilong, He Tengjiao even brought a hint of anger, because with his years of rich experience, he quickly came to a conclusion: The results of the Battle of Ji'an were definitely false! Big false report! How unreasonable is it that a military general dares to so blatantly falsely report his military exploits and deceive the king! If the Qing army was so easy to deal with, wouldn't they have recovered the entire Huguang long ago? Such a false report of war exploits is not only a deception of the Son of Heaven, but also a provocation and humiliation to all the officials and soldiers of Huguang!

What to do? Examine! Be sure to get to the bottom of it! As the governor of Huguang, He Tengjiao quickly remembered his duties and wrote a pleading note, asking Emperor Longwu to carefully investigate the results of the battle of Ji'an and completely stop this unhealthy trend of falsely reporting his military exploits.

In late April, the school field outside the city of Ganzhou.

The fiery red military flag of Ganzhou Town was fluttering in the wind, and the shouts of the soldiers during training soared into the sky, which was exciting, and even a group of birds flying over the woods in the distance were so frightened that they did not dare to fall.

Compared with when it was first built, the school yard in Ganzhou Town has been nearly doubled, enough to accommodate the town's soldiers to train calmly, and even opened up a special area for cavalry training.

At this moment, the cavalry training area was filled with thunder and smoke. I saw a group of cavalry galloping on the field, and the brand-new armor on their bodies was matched with a red-tasseled helmet, which made the army even more neat. When approaching a wooden target in front of them, the cavalry, under the command of the commander, picked up something from their side and aimed it forward.

"Put!" As the commander's command sounded again, one after another feathered arrows swooped forward with a screech.

In the muffled sound of "Bangbang", some of the arrows hit the wooden target, but a considerable part still missed. The cavalry then adjusted the speed of their horses, made a circle and returned to the starting point.

"Get the hell out of here!" Shi Youliang, who had been silently observing, stood up from the pony with some annoyance and yelled at the cavalrymen who had just returned.

Hearing Shi Youliang's roar, the cavalrymen jumped off their horses one by one, holding the same weapon they had just used to shoot the wooden target-hand crossbow.

These crossbows were recently produced by the Ordnance Bureau according to Pang Yue's instructions, and were intended to fight against Jiannu's cavalry on the battlefield in the future. Because there were many new recruits in Ganzhou Town, it took a long time to train skilled archers, so Pang Yue ordered the production of this weapon for cavalry use. Since the crossbow can be wound in advance and can be picked up and fired when needed, it is much easier to use this weapon than to draw a bow and arrow on a horse. The disadvantages of the hand crossbow are also obvious, first of all, it is slightly insufficient in range, and secondly, it is more troublesome to wind it again after a round, but considering that this weapon is light and simple, Pang Yue still decided to equip a batch first. …,

The first crossbows were made and sent to the training ground for the cavalry to test. However, the results so far have made Shi Youliang very dissatisfied.

"What the fuck are you all doing?!" Shi Youliang glared at the bull's eye and lectured the cavalrymen who bowed their heads and were silent, "So closely, they all missed the shot!?" I know you're recruits! So what!? I give you good food and drink every day, and you are still so useless! It is better to feed the pigs than the food you have to eat!" ”

"Zhou Ming!" Just as Shi Youliang was about to continue scolding, a voice came from behind him.

Shi Youliang didn't need to look to know who was coming, so he immediately turned around and saluted: "My lord! ”

"Zhou Ming seems to be in a hurry about training!" Pang Yue said with a smile.

Shi Youliang said with some hatred: "My lord! It's not that I'm in a hurry, it's that these bunnies are so fucking useless! You see, it's a shame to miss the target at such a close distance! ”

"It's right to be harsh on the training ground, but scolding is not the ultimate goal, the key is to find out the crux of the problem." Pang Yue said, "The training effect is not good, it may be because the soldiers have not been training for a long time, or it may be because there are still certain problems with this batch of hand crossbows. I have already sent two craftsmen from the Ordnance Bureau, and if there is any problem, you can always report it to them so that it can be improved as soon as possible. ”

Not far away, two craftsmen bowed respectfully to Shi Youliang, and Shi Youliang also arched his hand at them.

"That's it! You continue to command the soldiers' training! Pang Yue said, "Remember, pay attention to ......"

"Pay attention to the way you train!" Shi Youliang took over the conversation with a smile, "My lord, although my old Shi's memory is not very good, you have always remembered this!" ”

"His!" Pang Yue scolded with a smile, raised his slap and knocked it on Shi Youliang's head.

Shi Youliang quickly laughed and jumped away, but Nuoda's body seemed to be extremely flexible at this time, and the cavalrymen who were still wilting their heads just now were also amused, but they didn't dare to laugh out loud because of military discipline.

"No more nonsense! Train hard! I'll check it out there! ”

"Slow down, adults!"

After leaving the cavalry training ground, Pang Yue decided to go and see the drills of the musketeers. During this period, the Ordnance Bureau copied a batch of flintlock pistols and put them into use, and I don't know how well the soldiers mastered them.

When I came to the training area of the musketeers, I saw a row of musketeers taking turns practicing shooting with flintlock pistols or bird guns. With the constant sound of the gun, the wooden targets were smashed and became the fuel for cooking in the room. Although the musketeers of these two teams belong to the Gangfeng Battalion and the Trap Camp respectively, they do not train with the other units in the battalion, but have their own separate training areas.

At this time, Deng Yuanpeng, the thousand general manager of the Gangfeng Camp Firearms Team, and Xie Wencong, the thousand general manager of the Trap Camp Firearms Team, were talking about something with Kang Dingen. Recently, a new batch of flintlock muskets was put into use, and in order to directly discover the problem, Kang Dingen often came to the training ground to observe on the spot and listen to the opinions of the officers and men.

"Your Excellency!" Deng Yuanpeng was the first to see Pang Yue and saluted.

"Your Excellency!" Xie Wencong and Kang Dingen, who came back to their senses, also hurriedly saluted.

"No need to be polite! I'll come over and have a casual look. Mr. Deng Qian, Mr. Xie Qian, what is the effect of this new batch of flintlock pistols? Pang Yue nodded and asked bluntly.

"If you go back to your adult, the effect is quite good! Both in terms of range and reload speed, it is much stronger than the Bird Gun! Deng Yuanpeng replied with joy on his face.

Xie Wencong was also excited: "Mr. Deng Qian is right, this batch of flintlock pistols is very sophisticated, better than the last batch!" ”

"Good!" Pang Yue nodded with satisfaction, and asked Kang Dingen again: "Lao Kang, what about the methods of improving gunpowder that I told you last time?" ”…,

Ever since the flintlock pistol was put into production, Pang Yue has been thinking about ways to increase its range. After thinking about it, he decided to start with gunpowder first. Trying to recall the methods of improving black powder that he had read in his previous life, Pang Yue told Kang Dingen everything he could think of, such as adjusting the ratio of nitrate, sulfur and charcoal at the time, roughly reaching 75% nitrate, 10% sulfur, and 15% charcoal, and adding steps such as hammering, granulation, and drying, and so on. Since he hadn't deliberately memorized these things before, Pang Yue thought about it very hard, and he didn't know if it had any effect, so he could only explain the general method to Kang Dingen and let him experiment.

"Oh, I was about to tell the adults about this, and those methods really worked!" Kang Dingen's joy was overflowing, "Since the Lord talked about this method of improvement that day, I have asked the craftsmen to do what the Lord said. The first batch of new gunpowder increased the range of the flintlock pistol by almost 20%! If you let the craftsmen explore for a while, I'm afraid the effect will be even better! ”

"That's good!" Pang Yue said with a smile, although there was no almost wishful thinking of the exponential growth that he dreamed of, as long as he continued to explore and make progress, he would always usher in a qualitative leap.

"Give me a flintlock pistol, I'll try it too!" On a whim, Pang Yue wanted to try it himself.

Soon, a brand-new flintlock pistol was handed to Pang Yue, and the cold metal sensation from the body of the gun made him very comfortable. Loading, raising the gun, aiming, and pulling the trigger, this series of actions Pang Yue is very skillful.

"Bang!" As the flint was set on fire, the projectile sent the lead bullet out. A wooden target a hundred paces away was pierced.

In a compliment such as "adults are good marksmanship", Pang Yue handed back the flintlock pistol, and his heart was full of longing for the future: if a large number of advanced firearms can be produced and a powerful firearms army can be trained, what can Jiannu be worth?

Just when Pang Yue was happy, Wei Yuan came to report that Tian Shizun was here. Pang Yue knew that Tian Shizun usually taught in the teaching camp or took care of various affairs for himself in the general army yamen, and if he didn't have anything important, he wouldn't come to the school, so he hurried over to meet him.

"My lord! The situation is a little strange! After seeing Pang Yue, Tian Shizun frowned slightly and said.

At this time, Pang Yue also paid attention to it, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Today, the food and salary allocated by the imperial court to my town have been delivered."

Pang Yue was a little confused: "This is a good thing, why does Mr. Zijing feel strange?" ”

Tian Shizun shook his head: "My lord doesn't know, the salary is only three months!" ”

Trimester? Pang Yue couldn't help frowning.

"Even in normal times, there shouldn't be only such a share." Tian Shizun added, "My town has achieved a great victory in Ji'an not long ago! Moreover, this commendation proclamation has not moved for a long time, and the related rewards have disappeared. Students steal ......"

"Mr. Zijing doesn't have to say it thoroughly!" Pang Yue interrupted Tian Shizun's words with a wry smile, "Although I am only a martial artist, I am not ignorant of some things!" However, not everyone and everything is under our control, and we don't need to worry too much. Just do your part and have a clear conscience! Let the wind blow and the waves blow, I walk leisurely, as long as I am above board, why should I be afraid of anything? ”

Let the wind blow and the waves blow, and I will walk freely? Tian Shizun also smiled bitterly and nodded slowly.
