In the next few days, Zhao Lie stayed in the barracks again, and worked with Huang Han and others to train the composition of the army.

"Since the artillery will be built soon, I ordered Zhang Hui's department to be converted into an artillery team, first use the old guns in the warehouse to train their hands, and let the gunners of the sailors come over to teach,"

"Yes." Zhang Hui stood up and answered.

"Furthermore, order Ma Quanfu's department to be a cavalry team, and first use more than a hundred horses here to practice, and your department's duty is to search and discover the enemy's situation before the battle, and pursue the defeated enemy during the battle." Ma Quanfu's father is the head of the Weihai Master stable, managing dozens of horses and more than a dozen grooms, Ma Quanfu has been skilled in bowing horses since he was a child.

"My lord, can you ride a Portuguese horse? There are too few war horses here. Ma Quanfu asked.

"No, now Portuguese horses are being bred, and now, under the management of Ricardo and Silva, the number of horses will increase, and now we are buying horses with all our might."

"My lord, can you transfer the other thousand-man cavalry soldiers?" Ma Quanfu asked, licking his face.

"Yo he, just formed a team, I'll pull it to you." Zhao Lie glanced at him with a smile, "No, that's what I'm talking about below, there is a hundred-person scout team under each thousand-person team, and it is also equipped with war horses, and the scouts are our eyes on the battlefield, and we must make it possible for each thousand-person team to fight alone." ”

Good guy, the other five thousand are so lucky, fortunately they didn't let Ma Quanfu pull everyone away, otherwise everyone will be gone, what should the scout team do, phew, this Ma Quanfu is cunning and big.

The barracks were noisy again, and there were major changes, and artillery sites and cavalry sites were allocated, all of which were originally planned, but they were all in remote places. After all, artillery and cavalry are all types of troops that disturb the people, and Zhao Lie is willing to let them stay away for the sake of his own sleep.

Zhao Lie didn't know about the specific training of the cavalry, but when he traveled to England in his previous life, he came into contact with such information in the museum, from the seventeenth to the nineteenth century, when the cavalry of England and France fought against the cavalry of the nomadic tribes in the Middle East and Central Asia, they took the collective charge of the upper body and the dense formation, after all, they used the straggler-style cavalry archery or heroic duel, they could not be the opponents of the nomads who grew up on horseback since childhood, but this kind of collective charge needs to be a systematic drill and competition for casualties. This is the specialty of England and the French, of course, when the breech-loading rifled gun appears, this formation is a suicide attack, however, the current era of the breech-loading rifled gun is far away, Zhao Lie just used this to train his cavalry, which requires a lot of practice, fortunately, there is still time.

On this day, Iuliano happily invited Zhao Lie to watch the sailing of the clipper, and this time the clipper ship lived up to expectations, reaching a speed of fifteen knots. Seeing the scene of it gliding gracefully against the sea, everyone present was elated. It is a great blessing for the shipbuilders to build such a fast ship in their own hands.

"Congratulations, Mr. Iuliano, your ship has exceeded my expectations." Zhao Lie offered a sycophant, and he had to encourage and support this kind of high-end talent. Indeed, the speed of the ship exceeded Zhao Lie's expectations, and it was thought that this experimental sailing ship could run at a speed of thirteen or fourteen knots as a victory, but it can be seen that Juliano and the others have two brushes, and they must have made hard efforts to roughly complete the complex sails that they did not understand.

"It's over, it's over." Iuliano's current humble title of Daming is also very slippery. He didn't expect that the reluctant northward trip would have such a big surprise, not only a new ship type to build, but also a very generous silver reward.

"The award of two thousand taels of silver will be issued immediately," although it has just been more than a month, but the reason lies in himself.

"Thank you, sir." A few people were overjoyed, and the adults were just refreshing.

"Mr. Iuliano, has the construction of the Galen ship begun?"

"My lord, work has started, and the day before yesterday, the keel has been laid."

"Very well, but as I said before, let a lot of workers practice with this boat."

Zhao Lie reminded.

"Don't worry, my lord, this is also related to our reward." Iuliano replied with a smile.

"We have also received orders for three lucky ships, and we have to draw out some manpower at the moment." Iuliano showed off slightly, the shipyard had income so quickly.

Zhao Lie was stunned, this was indeed a surprise.

"My lord, Luo Changshan from Macau has placed an order at the shipyard." De Niro bowed back.

"Oh," Zhao Lie grinned, this is a person who will take chances.

"Mr. Iuliano, how many tons is this clipper?"

"That's less than a hundred tons."

"Then build ten more ships, and another 500 tons, and I hope there will be no big drop in the speed of the ships." Zhao Lie said.

"Yes, sir." Iuliano replied.

"In addition, large-tonnage clippers should have a place to arrange naval guns." You can't do it without protection.

"But, my lord, this kind of ship's bottom compartment is narrow, and the cargo volume is only about half that of the Galen ship, and besides, the ship's side is low, and only guns can be placed on the deck, and the number of guns will not be too many." Iuliano reminded Zhao Lie of the inadequacy of this kind of ship.

"Very well, Mr. Iuliano, you see the problem with this kind of ship, but this kind of ship is designed to be able to transmit information as soon as possible, and a few cannons can protect itself, I believe that no ship can catch up with it, and its greatest weapon of self-defense is its speed." Zhao Lie has high hopes for the flying clippers, in today's era of sea turtle speed, its amazing speed can ensure the smooth flow of information, in addition it has a greater role, in the seas of East Asia, the Ming Dynasty, Korea, and the Japanese naval war fireships are invincible existence, when several Galen encounter a hundred fireships, there is only one way to retreat, after all, the accuracy of the current artillery is too poor, it is impossible to sink each name. That's where the fast, agile clipper comes in handy.

Zhao Lie returned to the provincial office and summoned Mr. Fabio.

"Mr. Fabio, how is the council being prepared?" After the greetings, Zhao Lie asked.

"My lord, there are too few merchants here, and there are too few gentry, all of them, well, the military households you are talking about, and refugees, this, at present, I have only contacted Fan Xiangwen, Yan Junyi, Luo Changshan, and Zhang Ting, and most of them are not often in Shidao, so the matter cannot be resolved." Fabio is also helpless, these people don't understand that there is such a way of management, the most important thing is that they don't believe that even the collection of taxes is decided by the council, and this Lord Zhao Lie can let go.

Zhao Lie also understands their thoughts, however, the current small tax in Shidao is not the same, even in Macau, many businesses pay taxes in order to operate better, Zhao Lie does not look at this tax at all, but it needs to be piloted, it needs to be changed, China cannot still be the reincarnation of thousands of years, or the family of kings and so-called scholars.

"That is, if you and Luo Changshan do it first, there will be more and more merchants, and the existing people will see the benefits of joining." Just kidding, when they see the benefits of being in charge here, that's going to flock in.

"Okay. I'll do it with Mr. Luo first. Fabio replied.

"You can let my eldest brother Zhao Meng join me, and I mean something on my behalf." Zhao Lieyi intends to set an example for the Zhao family. And then there's the meaning of conditioning.

Fabio also understood, however, he did not object, first establish it and then say, even if the Zhao family did not join, the power was still in their hands, and the council was run with their support after all.

Zhao Lie and Zhao Meng reached an agreement with Zhao Meng that the management of Shidao Town would be gradually handed over to the council, and that he would join the council on behalf of the Zhao family.

Zhao Meng was already anxious about all kinds of things, and someone shared the burden, so he was very much in favor of it.

Wanji will mainly coordinate the operation of the Shui Bu Army, the artisan battalion, the shipyard, and the refugee camp, and the miscellaneous items in the town will be handed over to the council, which will greatly reduce its pressure.

In the next few days, Zhao Lie successively participated in the establishment ceremony of the junior high school, the high school, the military academy, the maritime academy and so on, the school is overcrowded with students, the children of the refugee camp, the children of the fishing village, and the children of military households, as for the military academy, most of the maritime academy is engaged in the training of existing soldiers, most of them are short-term, about a month, after all, the army was just established, and it is not easy for many training personnel to get out, and now there is only a clear eye.

The teachers of the academy are mainly recruited literate Ming people, and the military equipment and maritime academy are mainly generals, Portuguese soldiers, craftsmen, etc., and Zhao Lie is also among them, after all, many things are inseparable from his organization.

ps please recommend the collection.,Seeing that the collection doesn't rise but falls.,It's not a taste in my heart.。
