Chapter 387: Zheng Zhibao's Shock (I)

Zheng Cai said such a thing, if it was normal times, Zheng Zhibao would inevitably reprimand him fiercely. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 But seeing the scene in front of him, Zheng Zhibao nodded uncharacteristically in agreement, "It's really terrifying, but the most terrifying thing is not the soldiers in front of you, but the people who built this army." This Liu Fan was able to raise such a strong army in just three or five years, it is really too sensational, looking at the two hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, perhaps only Qi Jiguang and Qi Dashuai can compare with it! Perhaps, the eldest brother really did something wrong this time! It seems that our cooperation with Jiaozhou has to be renegotiated! ”

"That's it, that's it!" Zheng Cai nodded again and again, and said with a happy face, "Fortunately, we came to Jiaozhou this time, otherwise we would have been worried about the future of such a strong enemy for no reason!" ”

Zheng Zhibao was silent when he heard this, and did not answer Zheng Cai's words again, but looked under the high platform, and the expression on his face became more and more solemn.

Because of the distance, Liu Fan did not see the small movements of the Zheng family's uncle and nephew, and Liu Fan did not hear the whispering between them. Even if Liu Fan heard it, he wouldn't care, because he had now devoted himself to the soldier's review. Listening to the angry shouts of the soldiers, Liu Fan felt a strong sense of responsibility in his heart, and Liu Fan, the suppressor, stopped the soldiers' cries, and said loudly, "A strong country must have a strong army, and a strong army can be safe, a strong army, a consolidated national defense, has always been a reliable barrier to national tranquility and people's happiness." But if you want to strengthen the army, you can't do without hard training. Only one's own strength is the foundation for building a strong army! And today is the time to check the results of your training, and I announce that the drill has officially begun! ”

As soon as Liu Fan's words fell, Wu Tao immediately stepped out of the queue and walked to the front of the stage, and ordered loudly: "All of them are there!" Turn back and walk in unison! ”

"Boom!" A sound of neat footsteps sounded, and tens of thousands of soldiers of the Broken Army turned around in unison, and then walked out of the school field with neat steps. Under the clear blue sky and the dazzling sunlight, the soldiers of the Broken Army seemed to be rolling forward like a torrent of steel, and nothing seemed to be able to stop their progress. Everyone in the Zheng family was shocked by the scene in front of them again.

Seeing that the soldiers had gradually moved away, Liu Fan turned to the Zheng family and said, "Brother Zheng, let's go too, go and see the training of the soldiers!" ”

"Good!" Zheng Zhibao nodded, greeted and slowly walked forward behind Liu Fan and the others.

About a stick of incense, Liu Fan and others followed the soldiers to a martial arts exercise ground on the periphery of the camp of the Broken Army, which was originally one of the daily training places for the soldiers of the Broken Army.

"Overseer, the soldiers are ready for your review!" Wu Tao trotted all the way to Liu Fan and the others

Liu Fan nodded and said with satisfaction: "Then let's start!" ”

After getting Liu Fan's permission, Wu Tao began to arrange the exercises. According to the pre-arranged plan, the steps of the drill are mainly divided into three parts, the first is to test the combat effectiveness of the melee troops. Under Wu Tao's order, the soldiers of the Broken Army who were read quickly divided into two phalanxes. "Kill!" An angry roar sounded, and the soldiers of the two phalanxes formed an attack formation and quickly rushed towards the "enemy". The fierce battle began, and the soldiers completely ignored that the other party was "their own people" and fought desperately. Although he was holding a wooden stick without a spear in his hand, looking at his desperate posture, it was as if he was really fighting.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Zheng Cai couldn't help but smack his tongue and said, "Lord Commander, this is all your own people, don't you need to work so hard!" ”

Hearing Zheng Cai's words, Liu Fan shook his head and said, "It's better to shed a little blood now than to lose your life on the battlefield." The soldiers used wooden sticks, which were not very lethal, and they were wearing armor, so there would be no big problem. Even if you are injured, you can only lie in bed for a month at most, and if you go to the battlefield and change to a real knife and gun, it is not as simple as lying down for a few days. It's better to shed some blood now than to lose your life on the battlefield. ”

"Oh, what the chief soldier said is very true!" Although he didn't agree with Liu Fan's approach in his heart, as a bystander, Zheng Cai couldn't say anything. I could only nod depressedly and not speak.

The blood-pumping hand-to-hand battle finally ended after nearly half an hour of fighting, because the combat strength of the two armies was not much different, so the battle came to an end, and the men and horses of the two sides were almost comparable, and in the end there were only a few hundred people who could fight on the battlefield. Seeing this result, Wu Tao could only ask people to count the remaining numbers, and the side with the largest number of remaining people was the winner.

After the melee drills, the firearms unit will come next. Compared with those ordinary soldiers who have less live ammunition, these military academy students are more proficient in the use of arquebuses, and the reason for this is that Liu Fan has tilted a lot of resources towards the military academy. As a result, these trainees have a lot of experience in both shooting and firing guns.

"One hundred steps directly ahead of the target, three rounds of shooting, start!" The cadet soldiers, who received the order, divided into nine horizontal columns, quickly moved forward. The action is just that the soldiers skillfully lean the arquebus on their left shoulder, hold the gun in their left hand, hold the trigger between their left fingers, load the arquebus with their free right hand, and tear the pre-prepared gunpowder bag with their teeth, quickly pour the gunpowder from the muzzle, take a lead bullet from the pellet bag with their right hand and put it into the muzzle, and take out the whole strip. The feet are in a lunge, left and right straight, the butt of the gun is against the ****, the soldiers in the first row are half-kneeling, the soldiers in the second row are half-standing, and the soldiers in the third row are standing upright, and the soldiers pull the trigger in turn to shoot, and the whole action is done in one go, with almost no stagnation.

After the soldiers in the first three rows finished shooting, they immediately retreated to the back to reload, and the soldiers in the middle three rows quickly stepped forward and continued to shoot. Nine platoons of soldiers fired projectiles in batches, almost forming a continuous network of powerful fire. After three rounds of firing, the entire arena was almost covered by gunsmoke.

After half a stick of incense, the smoke cleared, and everyone saw the scene in front of them clearly, only to see that the target made of scarecrows in front of them had fallen to the ground in pieces. Straw splattered everywhere, and even the stakes supporting the scarecrow were cratered and riddled with bullet marks. The tragic scene is as embarrassing as after being swept away by a raging wind.
