Chapter 29: Decomposition
Considering that none of these teams of military families had learned martial arts, the complicated practice of moves would only confuse them, and the complicated things on the battle formation were useless. As long as you practice repeatedly, you can also wield great power.
The final decision is a move, which is a thorn! And this move is also broken down into two steps, the first step, hold the gun sideways, and the second step, stab hard. After that, let them practice these two movements repeatedly every day until they practice the movements standardly, practice quickly, and practice until they are conditioned.
As for knife practice, it is also the same move, which is divided into two steps, the first step is to raise the knife, and the second step is to split obliquely. The action of lifting the knife also requires a standard, and the angle of the knife chopping is also strictly regulated!
Since then, every day these teams of young men have practiced knives and guns outside the fort every day, without exception, every day Wang Dou also came out to practice with the four people of Han and Chao.
At this time, it was the beginning of the seventh year of Chongzhen, and it was snowing every night, and the remaining snow froze into solid ice the next day, making the ground slippery.
At present, everyone is cold in the house, and in this field, it is even more cold to freeze after standing for a while. However, Wang Dou made them practice continuously every day, and Wang Dou once made it clear that they could quit if they couldn't stand it, but after that, they even had to be expelled from Jingbian Fort.
At this time, being kicked out of the fort is really a dead end, seeing that others are gritting their teeth and persevering, why can't they do it, practicing to death is better than starving to death and freezing to death after being driven out of the fort. Therefore, no matter how bitter it is, every young man gritted his teeth and persevered. However, in order to prevent the soldiers from freezing out, Wang Dou will prepare some ginger soup every day to ward them off the cold.
Early that morning, everyone was still out of the fort to practice.
The sky was gray, the cold wind was like a cut, everyone's faces were blue from the cold, and many people's faces were cracked, and their mouths exhaled thick white gas. In order to keep warm, everyone can be said to have tried their best, and the clothes they wore were also varied, some people wore thick cotton jackets, and some people were wrapped in thick leather jackets. The hats worn by each person are also different, there are cotton hats, there are leather hats, and there are various styles.
Wang Dou is also wrapped in a thick leather jacket and a fur hat on his head, like everyone, his leather jacket and fur hat are also old, and no one cares about the beauty in very good season.
After practicing for a while, everyone began to practice their knives and guns again.
Looking at the uniform movements of everyone in the field, there was a faint momentum of going into battle to kill the enemy, and Han Chao next to him sighed: "It's only been more than a month, it's like this, how long did we practice in Zunhua at that time, four months, five months, or half a year?" ”
Han Zhong also looked at everyone in the field with his mouth open, and he said with a smile: "Thinking that these soldiers will be brought by us in the future, I am really willing to die!" ”
After more than a month of rigorous training by Wang Dou for these soldiers, they can be said to be ready to go into battle at this time, if they can train for another three months, and see a little blood in the last battle, at least among the guards of the Ming Dynasty, they can be regarded as a combatable army.
During these times, Wang Dou also made slight adjustments to these teams, and selected a few men from the fort to supplement them, forming three teams of soldiers, each team of twelve people, four swordsmen and eight gunners. The leaders of each team are Han Chao, Han Zhong, and Yang Tong, and such a number can better wield the power of the formation.
As for Qi Tianliang, after more than a month of training, he obviously couldn't keep up with the progress of everyone, so Qi Tianliang was selected to manage the newly built baggage team. In the future, the army will still need a baggage team, Zhong Rong is only managing the paperwork, of course it is impossible to follow the army, Qi Tianliang finally knows Braille, and he is an old man in the dun, so let him manage the baggage team.
However, their team, even Qi Tianliang, only eight people, are all old and weak men in the fort, no way, the manpower in the fort is these. Fortunately, they don't usually need to practice much, so even if their body is a little worse, they can barely do it.
However, Yang Tong has a ruthless force and has always persevered, so he also served as the leader of a war team.
However, although these three teams of soldiers are a bit of a soldier, but their clothing and banners are not regular, each dressed in a variety of ways, the three team leaders each hold a long weapon, and a tattered flag is hung on it, which is considered a team flag, but fortunately, each of them has a waist card indicating their identity, and they can be recognized as soldiers of Jingbian Fort.
Now there is only one step drum in Wang Doujun, which was originally placed in the warehouse of Jingbiandun, although it is dilapidated, it can finally be used! After practicing, in addition to the excellent firearms and guns, the rest of the swords, guns, bows and arrows are indispensable, of course, there is this ......"
This time he motioned for Han Chao to hold the shield, and then he asked for Han Zhong's big stick, to be precise, this is a clamping knife stick, about eight feet long, about two inches thick, and a five-inch short blade is added on the basis of the big stick, which is shaped like a duck's beak. This kind of weapon is mostly seen in the cavalry of the Ming border army, the upper horse can be stabbed, the lower horse can be attacked, and the cavalry is used in a large number of people.
Could it be that the Korean brothers were cavalrymen before? This thought flashed through Wang Dou's heart, and he took the big stick to signal Han Chao to start.
Han Chao held a knife in one hand and a shield in the other, his shield tightly covered his body, and he moved his steps from time to time, just cautiously looking at Wang Dou opposite. Wang Dou's body rotated with Han Chao's body, he held the big stick in both hands, just to spy on his flaws, and suddenly Wang Dou shouted, and the big stick smashed straight into Han Chao's shield.
Han Chao raised the card to block, Wang Dou's strength was so fierce, you could feel Han Chao's figure stagnate, Wang Dou smashed a few sticks again, the sticks were smashed in the position just now, it can be seen that Han Chao's figure was scattered, the body was exposed from the shield, and Wang Dou changed it to a thorn, and the short blade on the stick was stopped at Han Chao's heart.
Wang Dou put away the stick and said to the stunned people below: "See, the shield is not afraid of swords, guns, bows and arrows, but it is afraid of firearms and sticks. ”
The people below haven't recovered from the drill just now, everyone is talking in amazement, Han Zhong is also grinning, he didn't expect that the big stick in his hand was changed to Wang Dou's hand, it was so powerful.
Next, Wang Dou let a few knife hands practice shields, which is also broken down into several actions, in fact, each shield player should also have two javelins with the brand, but Wang Dou does not have a javelin in his hand now, so he can only talk about it in the future, and let a few players practice the shield knife skills first.
The time soon came to the eighth day of the lunar month, this day is the Laba Festival, and Laba porridge must be eaten all over the Ming Dynasty. And on this day, the craftsman Li Maosen came to Wang Dou in a hurry.
