Li Dazhui's reply made Tang Ming and Zhu Yong stunned on the spot, and only came back to their senses after a while, Zhu Yong's eyes glared and he wanted to step forward to teach Li Dazhui a lesson, Tang Ming stretched out his hand to stop him. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info From Li Dazhui's expression, Tang Ming saw a look of disdain and distrust.

As a general, being able to stand up for his subordinates without fear of power, no matter what his purpose is, is the most basic requirement of a good general. Who is Li Dazhui, Tang Ming doesn't know and has never heard of it, but at this moment he is curious about it.

The current system of the sharpshooter battalion in the army is a little awkward, and its status is even more dispensable, and their most useful use on the battlefield is to put a few shots at a distance and then withdraw from the battlefield. The key to victory in the end depends on infantry and cavalry.

Therefore, the sharpshooter battalion has always had no status in the army, but it is such a general who has no status and refuses his dispatch to his face.

Tang Ming smiled and handed the handsome order in his hand to Li Dazhu: "This is what the emperor just gave me, I believe that your soldiers should not be injured again now, right?" ”

As soon as Li Dazhui's eyes touched the token, his face immediately changed, and his expression became even more difficult. Unexpectedly, the young man in front of him was actually holding the emperor's handsome order, and now he couldn't refuse Tang Ming's request no matter what.

Putting his subordinates in the hands of such a young man, Li Dazhui was unwilling and painful. After some hesitation and struggle, he gritted his teeth and said: "The last general Li Da Hammer does not dare to disobey the order, but I wonder if the Hou Ye can tell me what he wants my sharpshooter battalion to do?" ”

"Fighting, really going to the battlefield to fight a tough battle. With a win, the sharpshooter battalion will not only get the respect it deserves, but also establish a reputation in the army. It's also the best time to break the embarrassing position of the current sharpshooter battalion! "Temptation, Tang Ming is tempting Li Dazhui, from the smile on the corner of his mouth at the moment, it can be seen that this guy seems to be playing tricks.

Sure enough, Li Dazhui was shocked when he heard this, and looked at Tang Ming with a face full of disbelief, forgetting to close his wide open mouth. However, he returned to normal in an instant, because Li Dazhui knew the details of his sharpshooter battalion.

Although there are now newly created flintlock pistols from the Ordnance Division, this has indeed greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the sharpshooter battalion. But in the final analysis, it still can't really become a main force, and a single arm is digging its own grave when it goes to the battlefield.

This can be seen from the results of the last two battles, and the sharpshooter battalion has never been able to fight independently. The first two battles were fought under the cover of cavalry, but the result was not heavy casualties, and after two skirmishes of 1,000 soldiers, the number of casualties was as high as more than 200.

The cavalry covering them suffered nearly 400 casualties, and Li Dazhui was completely desperate after the first battle. The sharpshooter battalion is used to ambush the enemy or defend the city, which can be regarded as a heavy responsibility, if it is used as an offensive unit, what is the difference between suicide.

Li Da Hammer shook his head non-stop, and explained with a wry smile: "Master Hou may not know that the sharpshooter battalion is not suitable as an offensive force. Especially on this plain, the mobility of the Tatar cavalry was a headache. ”

"Oh, what's the concern, Brother Li, but it's okay." Knowing that the other side can win every battle, Tang Ming really wanted to hear how deep Li Dazhui knew about the Sharpshooter Battalion at this moment.

Li Dazhu's bald expression was shocked, and then his eyes lit up, he couldn't imagine that the young Hou Ye in front of him was actually willing to calm down and listen to his opinion. How many vulgar men in the army, the other party is a teenager, and it is already rare to be impatient.

But Tang Ming's performance made Li Dazhui regain confidence, and in order to keep his sharpshooter battalion, Li Dazhui was willing to sacrifice his life, so he refused Tang Ming's dispatch at all costs.

The slightly trembling body showed Li Dazhu's excited mood at the moment, and he explained with a slight clench of his fists: "This Tatar cavalry is good at riding and shooting, and when we first came into contact, we still used the previous ordinary firearms, and at a distance of a hundred paces, our best gunners only had time to fire two shots, and the Tatar cavalry could rush in front of our gunners." ”

"Since the flintlock pistol has reached an effective distance of one hundred and fifty paces, it is not much better, and at most we can fire two more shots. This is almost negligible for the enemy, with casualties. ”

"According to you, the biggest concern is that the gunners will not be able to deal the most severe blows when the enemy is near, right?"

"Master Hou is wise, this is what the last general said." Seeing that Tang Ming was still with that calm expression, Li Dazhui was a little apprehensive at the moment, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, whether Tang Ming understood his words, and didn't let the sharpshooter battalion become a victim of the test.

Tang Ming suddenly laughed, after all, the combat methods of this sharpshooter battalion were still too simple, and he could come up with a few effective ways to break the current predicament. But the premise is that he must make the soldiers who participate in the war realize their own shortcomings.

Li Dazhui saw the problem, but he didn't have a way to deal with it, and it wasn't his fault, because even Yao Guangxiao and the emperor couldn't think of an effective way. At this moment, if Li Dazhui wants to cooperate with him willingly, then Tang Ming must come up with a means to convince him.

Otherwise, if the army went out to fight half-heartedly, and then did not listen to the command and messed up, Tang Ming did not dare to imagine such consequences.

"Brother Li may not know that this flintlock pistol was designed and transformed by this marquis, and I believe you should have a deep understanding of its power. Your concerns just now have been considered by the Hou Ye for a long time, and there are several ways to deal with them, but all the gunmen must be ordered to prohibit them in order to cooperate perfectly. I don't know what the discipline of Brother Li's sharpshooter battalion is? ”

Tang Ming said that there was a way to deal with the current predicament of the Sharpshooter Battalion, and he remained skeptical. But when it came to the discipline of the gunners of the sharpshooter battalion, he raised his head proudly, patted his chest and said: "They are the most disciplined soldiers in the whole army, and I can assure the Hou Ye of this." ”

The sharpshooter battalion can stand tall in the army because of the discipline of orders and prohibitions, and their usual training is the discipline of action in addition to marksmanship.

"That's good! In order to let Brother Li understand the power of the sharpshooter battalion, let's have a competition. I will fight against you with eighty of my own soldiers, and those who lose must obey the orders of those who win unconditionally. Tang Ming smiled, as if he was sure of victory.

Compared with marksmanship and discipline, Li Dazhui had absolute confidence in his sharpshooter battalion, so he simply agreed to Tang Ming's challenge, taking this opportunity to make Tang Ming break off the idea of the sharpshooter battalion. (To be continued.) )
