"If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools." Mrs. Qian muttered softly, and Yang Chengzu nodded, "That's what I said, but in a war, the most important thing is discipline and obedience, thousands of people are like one person, like an arm and a finger, let them do what they do, they will do it, this is far more important than any equipment." Of course, the combat effectiveness of well-disciplined troops with firearms will be better, but at the moment, they are comparing those homeless, the White Lotus thieves hiding among the homeless, and the existing firearms in the palace are enough. Besides, whether it is the power or quality of the current firearms, they are all like that, and the operation is still complicated, so everyone puts their minds on the firearms, and when the time comes, the guy will fail, but it will be a bad thing. ”

"You say that, it's quite fresh, Daming's fire gun is really not good enough. However, Ning Fan's side has made some powerful firearms, and I have also gotten a batch through the door this time, and I have already sent some to you, as long as it is a little help. ”

The people who came to Huguang to purchase military rations, in addition to the quartermasters of the imperial court, were naturally the quartermasters of King Ning. Compared with the imperial court, rebels like King Ning have a greater demand for materials, and the price is more generous. In fact, whether Zhang Sizong or Mrs. Qian, the biggest customers are the military grain stations on King Ning's side. The difference is that Zhang Sizong wants money, and Mrs. Qian wants things.

"Firearms, of course, are good things, but only if the soldier has courage. If you encounter an enemy, you just think about letting go of your guns from a distance, and when the enemy is near, you just think about running, no matter how good a firearm you give him, it is useless. Our troops should be used with guns when they are far away, and they can be killed with knives when they are close, and then they can be considered good soldiers. There are now more than 100 large thunderbolt cannons in the palace, and although that thing is not too easy to use, it is enough to deal with this kind of enemy. ”

"In war, some people think that it is better than anyone's weapons and more soldiers. This idea is not necessarily wrong, but it ignores a premise, and that is to be better than people. Fighting is not fighting, it is not who is stronger, or who is stronger in martial arts, will definitely win. Thousands of troops and horses pressed over, and no amount of martial arts or strength was useless, so no matter what gang or sect it was, all the officers and soldiers encountered would be finished. As for relying on tricks and tricks, more often than not, it is a script, and when it comes to the battlefield, these things can only be regarded as auxiliary, not basic. What really counts as the foundation is discipline, organization, and morale. As long as everyone does not run or escape, even if they can't win, they grit their teeth and are willing to work hard, they are good soldiers. If you don't have a war, you want to run, and if you don't run, your comrades will run too, no matter what weapons you give them, it's useless. ”

"Have you trained such a good soldier?"

"It's not good to say, after all, the training time is short, not to mention that I don't know how to train soldiers. It's just to catch ducks on the shelves, how much can you do, but has Mrs. Qian ever heard this joke? There was once a couple of people who went on an adventure in the forest and came across a bear......"

In the back garden of the palace, Yang Chengzu and Mrs. Qian walked side by side, telling cold jokes from later generations. It was obviously a critical situation, but he was still able to make Mrs. Qian smile slightly, revealing a mouthful of teeth. In the corner of the garden, a small fireman in Tsing Yi with delicate eyebrows secretly looked this way.

There are also hundreds of eunuchs in the palace, and a small firefighter cannot attract people's attention. The fire man peeked at it, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he muttered in his heart: "Reward, filial piety, is a plan for the mourning soldiers to win." Now such a soldier, even against the Mongols, dare to rush over, and against them, Shi Jinliang has a good look this time. ”

A pair of good-looking big eyes glanced around, "What about a big palace, so many people's fat and people's ointment, if they are all in the hands of the Holy Sect, they can do a lot of things." I'm going to see who is the winner in this game. ”

Zhao Miniang, Hao Qingqing and several other women who knew martial arts, dressed neatly, carried bows and arrows and slingshots in their hands, and were on high alert in their small courtyards. The female guards in the family were all mobilized, sorting out their weapons and armor, and quietly waiting for the master's order.

Liu was invited by Concubine Jiang, and the identities of the two women were very different, but they were very close to each other. The more the two talked, the more speculative they became, and Princess Jiang instructed: "Invite Fan Nuniang, let's get to know each other, if Mrs. Liu has any difficulties here in the future, just come to find the mourning family." ”

On the side of the Danfang, the copper coins in Tao Zhongwen's hand accounted for several hexagrams in a row, but the results of each hexagram were contradictory and conflicting with each other. Angry, he threw away the copper coin, "Sure enough, what Master Zu said is right, when something happens, only one can make a decision." ”

A Taoist boy who served him asked, "Master, should we pack our bags?" Didn't you say that if the calculation is unfavorable, we will have to tighten the wind? ”

"you!" Tao Zhongwen was very graceful and slapped the dust on this disciple's head, "There is food and drink here, take us as immortal offerings, leave here, you should have a good life?" He looked out the window again, "There is chaos everywhere now, there are still 50,000 troops of the Ning Domain outside, how can there be any place of peace." Just like what Yang Yizheng said to me a few days ago, Huguang now can't put a quiet Dan furnace. Let's take a good look at the situation here, I only hope that the Sanqing Patriarch will bless you, and An Lu will not be messed up. ”

The palace maids and eunuchs in the inner palace were nervously discussing something, and some palace people, under the leadership of the eunuchs, held weapons in their hands and put armor on their bodies. In the outer courtyard, those heroes of the rivers and lakes didn't have many rules, they took a whetstone, and they were right next to the well, polishing their weapons with the well water, and some people were pranayama with their eyes closed, trying to keep themselves at their peak.

Those honor soldiers sat there quietly, their armor was already on, their weapons were at hand, and the way they sat around was also a battle formation, and in the event of a battle, they could get up and meet the enemy as quickly as possible. Other soldiers filled large wooden barrels with gunpowder, not knowing what they were preparing. Someone shouted, "Boom, boom." Mrs. Qian donated a batch of quick guns, everyone sent them, and then learned how to use them. ”

Outside the Yamen of Anlu Prefecture, the Anlu battalion has completed the basic mobilization, and in addition to the children and soldiers who have returned to their respective families, the Anlu battalion now has more than 5,000 people. The purpose of the formation of this battalion is to provide relief, but it is just a disguised service for relief, so the establishment is not very subject to the current Daming battalion system, and there are surprisingly many soldiers and horses.

More than 5,000 people were originally stationed in various parts of Anlu, and the refugees besieged the Yamen. The order in the messenger's hand is stamped with the big seal of the state yamen, but these officers, you look at me, I look at you, and the expression on their faces is like this: indifference.

An Bangtai strode in from outside, but saw that in addition to the officers, there was also a young man he did not know. It was born very strong, with dark skin, not much different from an ordinary country farmer.

There are many refugees in this Anlu City, and there are many people who can't find a way to eat, and there are always people in the camp who introduce their relatives to eat just to eat, so there is a lot of mobility in people, and it is normal to have people who don't know themselves.

However, such a person appeared in the tent, which was a bit abnormal, An Bangtai frowned, "Who is he?" What are you doing here? Hurry up and let him out, how did you do it, it's been grinding for so long, why don't you hurry up and play the pressure? If the old man of Zhizhou has a mistake, who will take this responsibility? ”

He was a military guard officer, and he was transferred to the Anlu battalion as a staff general in the form of a second, and he was the nominal supreme commander of the battalion. If something happened to Wantong because the rescue was not available, he would be the first to get out of it, so it would not be blamed for his anxiety.

The dark-skinned man didn't even have an official uniform on him, and it was said that he didn't have a place to speak, not even to attend. But these officers didn't say a word, but he sneered and asked, "Bullet pressure? How is the elastic pressure method? Or how many refugees' heads will be cut off and how many old and weak women and children will be killed in this Anlu camp? ”
