The establishment of the Grandmaster Hall, the people of the East Road discussed it, Fu Mingqi, Jiang Hongsheng, Ye Xizhi and others of the Education Division, they had not yet thought about how to evaluate the Gun Hall and the Craftsman Hall, but they applauded the establishment of the "Sword Hall" loudly.

When everyone chatted in private, Ye Xizhi said: "Miao Ye, since ancient times, Confucianism has used literature to mess with the law, chivalry has violated the ban with martial arts, and the benefits of just one acre of land have made the world's heroes save their lives, and they are willing to be the general Eagle Dog." ”

He even used the post station as a metaphor to say things: "The ancestors set up a post station, so they gathered strong people, made them carry their burdens, consumed their energy, sold their years, and made their mouths and stomachs, so that they did not dare to do wrong, and the original was wonderful." Today, there is a swordsman hall, and it is wonderful - with one also. ”

Ye Xizhi and others also saw Wang Dou's painstaking efforts to cultivate the martial arts style of the East Road, and now there is a school in each Tunbao on the East Road, and the students are not only literate, but also teach swordsmanship. The Department of Education and Culture is also preparing to compile a textbook on "Chronicles of Great China", which contains many articles such as the Debate of Huayi, the Biography of the Heroes of Great China, the Way of a Gentleman, and the Way of a Samurai.

With the addition of this swordsman's hall, it must be extremely popular after the East Road.

There are also many Ding Haojie, who also poured into the East Road, not only the swordsman hall and the establishment of the loyalty camp, but also let them see hope.

May of the fourteenth year of Chongzhen.

The uproar of the Beijing division also spread to the East Road at this time, and the slaves and thieves had a large number of artillery and birds, and although the soldiers and civilians of the East Road were surprised, they were not afraid. As General Shen said, how can their Dongshi army compare to their own genuine Xishi army?

However, this matter still caused heated discussions, and everyone talked about how to deal with Dongnu, and countless "civilian military strategists" emerged in various teahouses and restaurants. Some shrewd people printed some maps of Liaodong for sale, and although they were sketchy, they were immediately snapped up by everyone.

In the midst of the discussion, Wang Dou inspected the army drill in the Dajiao Field in the northwest suburbs of Yongning City.

At this time, the venue was in full swing, and the sound of drills continued.

The battalions were continuously organized and put into training one after another.

Wang Dou was originally worried about whether the newly recruited tunding could quickly adapt to the military camp, because the training time would not be very long, and soon the army would have to march out of Liaodong.

Lin Daofu, the military training ambassador, was confident, and he said to Wang Dou that all fort soldiers usually practice according to the "Shunxiang Fort Infantry Drill Code", and all regulations are the same as those of the military camp. Although everyone will not have a lot of time to practice, after a few years, everyone is basically familiar with military affairs.

Moreover, the people selected to join the army this time are all guarding tunding, these tundings are all excellent people in each fort, they are skilled in the use of military rules and weapons, and they will not be inferior to those who were trained in the recruit camp in the past.

Sure enough, after Wang Dou's inspection, he was still satisfied with the run-in degree of the recruits in each battalion.

According to his estimates, these recruits will be able to integrate into the battalions within a month.

The cannon roared on the teaching ground, and the sergeants marched forward in a neat formation to the beat of drums.

This is how the battalions were training to adapt to artillery fire, and how the armies were training to adapt to bows and arrows, and now the times have changed.

The deterrent power of artillery is indeed extraordinary, and the first time the artillery was fired at the opposite side, it was still an empty artillery, and there was some commotion with the strength of the Jingbian army, but slowly everyone became accustomed to it. After the air artillery training, the military formation will have to adapt to live ammunition in the future.

This is facing artillery training, in addition, in addition to joint camp training in each battalion, the spearmen of the first class army in the middle are also practicing swords and shields.

In the future, I am afraid that there will be a tough battle, trench warfare or something, and the use of spears is inevitably a little inappropriate.

In the Jingbian army, whether it is a pikeman or a bird gun, they are all issued with waist knives, so everyone has practice in knife skills.

Besides, the first-class army is all veterans, what skills can't be? Back then, I only practiced one move in the army because I wanted to become an army quickly. However, who is not familiar with swords, guns and halberds after many years in the army? So review the sword and shield, it's just a trifle. …,

Li Guangheng's cavalry was also training, and the first-class army in his battalion was extremely outstanding. In other battalions, there are generally only two thousand first-class sergeants, and the rest are mostly second-class soldiers, with first-class sergeants as officers.

The horses of the cavalry battalion are also the same color war horses, it is said that the Qi family army divided the horses into nine classes, and Wang Dou simplified them to three classes: first class, medium class, and inferior class.

The first class is war horses, and in the Jingbian Army, only the cavalry battalion, the sentry battalion, and the guard battalion are one-color war horses, and some officers of each battalion ride war horses.

Medium horseback, used by the horse infantry army, and the first-class sergeants of each battalion used medium horses, and there were some surplus war horses.

The inferior ones are used for pack horses, baggage camps, and are also used for pulling goods in the road, plowing the fields, etc.

When Wang Dou inspected, Zhong Tiaoyang was also by his side, he was now the chief general of the guard and a Chinese officer, and Xie Yike was transferred to the sentry camp to serve as the general manager, which was regarded as a return to his old job.

Seeing Wang Dou coming to inspect, the generals of the battalions came over to greet and salute, Wang Dou waved his hand, let them go back, and continue to watch the training of the battalions.

One by one, the military formations moved in the field, the drums beat and the slogans were excited, and in front of the military formation, there were some stragglers......

Yes, it is a straggler, and it was originally proposed that each battalion should not accept five people at night at the headquarters, ten people at the headquarters at night, and 50 people at the battalion headquarters at night. It is really difficult to find a night without collection, and after discussion with the generals, it was decided that it would be better to let the night not be collected and concentrated in the sentry camp.

Therefore, the original 170 people in each battalion were not charged for each night, and they were replaced by marksmen.

This was a proposal from Wen Fangliang, who had been interested in sniper tactics since Xiangyang shot Zhang Xianzhong.

Everyone thinks it is feasible, and it is difficult to find it if you don't collect it at night, and there are more marksmen in the Jingbian army.

After reporting to Wang Dou for approval, the marksman was implemented in the army.

They often use flint flint guns to shoot enemy generals on the battlefield or to entangle enemy troops.

Those who are good at using bows and arrows can also use arrows.

There are also people who carry the carrying gun, which is a large bird gun nicknamed the "nine-headed bird", which is so powerful that the chariot cannot resist it.

The gun also has a triangular bracket and a rotating device, which can be well aimed at support, three meters long, weighs more than 20 catties, needs two people to operate, and the effective strike distance is 200 steps.

The Eagle Raising Cannon is also used, which is heavier than 30 pounds, and the triangular bracket is also used, which is operated by two people, one person launches, and one person loads.

This gun uses a sub-gun, which has a fast firing speed and strong power, but due to the breech loading, it has high requirements for the manufacturing process. The bore must be the same as the muzzle of the sub-gun, without any unevenness, so that it is convenient to shoot out the bullet and not leak out of the fire.

Looking at the sergeant training and those stragglers, Wang Dou couldn't help but sigh, the era of firearms has come.

Turning to the corner of the teaching field, I also saw a large group of stout sergeants in training to throw some things in their hands, round, black and flickering, with a handle at one end and a long lead rope at the other end, but it was a grenade of the Ming Dynasty, which was called ten thousand enemies at this time.

In the crowd, a general who looked five big and three thick, but his voice was full of gloom, was saying: "There are not many first-class soldiers in my baggage battalion, but those who are selected into the grenadier team can enjoy the treatment of first-class soldiers. ”

But it was Sun Sanjie who was talking and saw Wang Dou, he hurriedly came over to salute, Wang Dou asked, "How is it, how many grenadiers are there?" ”

Sun Sanjie said: "Back to the general, the brothers are very enthusiastic, there are no other talents in the baggage camp, but there are many strong people, and now there are two general people who have been selected for the assessment."

Wang Dou was very happy: "Okay, continue the selection, the number of grenadiers must be at least six hundred." ”

After the military factory produced a large number of grenades in the Ming Dynasty, Wang Dou considered setting up a grenadier team in the army. Moreover, there are not many opportunities for meritorious service in the baggage camp, so this opportunity will be handed over to Sun Sanjie. …,

Although Sun Sanjie has a strange voice, he is kind and popular among the generals, so no one robs him.

Although it is more dangerous to join the grenadier team, as soon as they join the team, they enjoy the treatment of the first class, so the sergeants of the baggage team still enthusiastically sign up.

However, the assessment is not so easy.

Because of the improvement of the formula of the explosive medicine, the 10,000 enemies created by the military factory have been reduced from the original size of a human head to a lot less, but they are still heavy.

In the assessment, everyone is holding 10,000 enemies, and they need to be 30 steps away (45 meters) to accurately throw into a certain target, such as in a ditch or trench, which is not easy. So after a series of selections, the grenadiers of the baggage battalion are now only 400 people.

Wang Dou thought to himself: "Grenades play a great role in defending cities, attacking fortified positions, and trench warfare, and now they are used in the army, and they are still too heavy." ”

It's just that the improvement of technology is not a matter of time and a half, and the enemy is too small, and the power cannot go up, so I have to give up.

Two days later.

At the test site of the military factory, the generals looked at the bird in Wang Dou's hand and looked at each other.

Wang Dou was holding a flintlock pistol in his hand, this was not surprising, but what was surprising was that there was also a sleeve-like sword on the mouth of the bird's gun.

Everyone looked at the sword, the blade was about one foot five long, the handle was empty, there was a gap in it, and there was a small protrusion on the edge of the bird's mouth. Therefore, after the sword is inserted, the notch is buckled on the counterpart, and it can be fixed with a slight twist.

Zhao Xuan hesitated: "This is ...... Four sons and one sword? Not like that. ”

What Zhao Xuan said was a kind of gun sword invented by He Liangchen in the 40th year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty, but the gun sword was inserted into the mouth of the gun, and this gun sword was installed on the side and did not affect the shooting of the bird.

All the generals of the Jingbian Army were curious about the new things, and they asked to watch them, and soon a number of bird guns with bayonets were handed over to them.

Everyone watched carefully, many people still held it in their hands and waved it, this bird with a sword of ten catties or less, everyone is a general, and it is naturally nothing to dance. Even in the Jingbian Army, the sergeants are strong and strong, and there is no problem in using this kind of sword and bird gun.

After playing for a long time, everyone stopped, Gao Shiyin took off the bayonet and played with it, laughing loudly: "General, don't you want to let your subordinates make this kind of bird with a sword in the future, right?" ”

Wang Dou smiled and said: "This sword was developed by Lai Yuanlong and others in the military factory, so I named it Lai's sword." ”

In order to stimulate the sense of honor of the craftsmen, whoever researched the weapon, Wang Dou named it after it. In the past, the arquebus in the army, Wang Dou named it Li's firecracker, which is the meaning of encouraging the craftsman Li Maosen. After Lai Yuanlong developed a flintlock pistol, Wang Dou named it Lai's self-generated firecracker. Li Zhifen researched a new type of fire medicine, which was named Li's sub-medicine.

Wang Dou said: "Whether to equip the sergeant or not, we still have to listen to your opinions. ”

Gao Shiyin smiled, put the bayonet in his hand again, and said: "After this bird gun is put on the sword, it is about five feet long (one meter six in later generations), and the spear used by my sergeant is about one zhang long, and this hand-to-hand fight is ......."

There are many weapons at the test site, Gao Shiyin took a shield and threw the bird gun to Han Chao: "Old Han, go on." ”

In his right hand, he picked up another brass hammer.

Han Chao had already understood what Gao Shiyin meant, and his brows furrowed slightly: "Old Gao, what are you going to do?" ”

Gao Shiyin shouted: "We are now on the battlefield, you and I will personally demonstrate and verify." ”

All the generals were excited, similar to Shen Shiqi, Xie Yike and other guys who were afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and they whistled and applauded loudly. ）
