Chapter 186: Lessons Learned

After retiring from the dynasty, Zhu Youcheng returned to the children's paradise.

It's been a long time since I've been to the two major colleges in Daming, and the students can't remember their own business. Today's counterattack by the two students in the court made him vigilant, and it seems that the students of the two colleges must be firmly controlled in the future.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse put him in charge of the two courts, although it was a trust, but it was not to let him show his power. If you live up to the emperor's kindness, it will be a little too old-fashioned. Each assistant of the Ming Dynasty has a group of loyal ministers, either because of the same interests, or because of the entanglement of interests and gathered under the auxiliary door, one is convenient for the auxiliary to control the government, and the other is also convenient for the execution of orders. If there were 100 ministers under Zhu Youcheng in the third year of the Apocalypse, he would have squeezed into the cabinet long ago.

Zhu Youcheng decided that there were no special circumstances, so he would not go to Xizhen Fusi during this time, and went to the two academies every day to talk about life ideals with students, and then talk about familiar faces.

However, although he can't go back to Xizhen Fusi, but the military preparations can not be relaxed, the Jiannu in Liaodong is sharpening his knives, if the situation deteriorates, the Xizhen Fusi would rather fight the military strength and suffer heavy losses, but also have to fight into Liaodong and rescue the soldiers and civilians under the Jiannu butcher's knife - although the Emperor of the Apocalypse issued a Liaodong policy of giving soldiers but not to the people, but some people, merchants, and family members still moved to Liaodong, so Liaodong not only has soldiers, but also people, but the people live in the city of Guanningjin defense line, Rather than being scattered in the countryside of Liaodong as in history. Zhu Youcheng couldn't bear to watch these innocent people die, after all, one of the purposes of the Emperor of the Apocalypse to form the Xizhen Fusi was to prepare for the war in Liaodong.

In addition, there are lessons to be learned in this battle of Cangzhou. How did the name come about? It is to learn to command in the course of command and to learn to fight in the course of war, and to achieve this goal, summing up post-war experience is an indispensable link. It's easy to have a meeting. Zhu Youcheng can't leave the capital, but thousands of households can come to the capital.

On September 16 of the fifth year of the Apocalypse, more than 90 principal and deputy thousand households, together with Wu Huping, Chen Guoqi, and Ke Qingqing, who stayed in the capital, came to the Daming Military Academy to participate in the military experience summary meeting held there.

Zhu Youcheng originally wanted to openly hold this experience summing up meeting, and by the way, to add a little actual combat experience to the teachers and students of the Daming Military Academy. But considering that it involved the secret ordnance of the West Town Fuji - rifling and then loading firearms, it was better to give up.

Speaking of this firebolt, there is more than one generation ahead of this world. First of all, this kind of firearm has abandoned the fire rope, and the trigger is driven by the machine spring, striking the flint, igniting the primer of the bullet, and firing the bullet; Secondly, the warhead and gunpowder are integrated, and the gun tube is filled by the bottom of the gun. Convenient and fast; Again, rifling is engraved on the inner wall of the barrel, and the bullet spins out, which not only improves the accuracy, but also has an effective range of a terrifying 600 steps, which is already the limit of black gunpowder - if you want to increase the range, you can only develop a new generation of yellow gunpowder.

In order to let thousands of households understand the panorama of the Battle of Cangzhou, Zhu Youcheng asked a map of Cangzhou to be hung in the room. It depicts the route of this march and the route of the bandits' escape, and then asked Wu Huping and Chen Guoqi to talk about the whole process of the battle of Cangzhou. Hearing the power of the firebolt is so powerful. The eyes of the thousands of households couldn't help but widen; And hearing the ferocity of the bandits, the thousands of households gritted their teeth again.

After the two finished speaking, Zhu Youcheng summed up the advantages of the new weapon, and then said: "Show the enemy with a wise eye, defeat the enemy with a cautious attitude, and crush the enemy with advanced weapons." This is the main reason why we defeated the enemy with small losses this time. The credit is no longer listed, so let's take a look at the problems that we didn't notice in this battle. ”

Wu Huping and Chen Guoqi changed color slightly, other troops fought big victories and drank in big bowls, and the big scales divided the gold, why did Jinyiwei still have to investigate the responsibility after the victory? However, it seems that there is no retreat or violation of military discipline in the Jinyi Guard.

Zhu Youcheng caught a glimpse of the faces of the two. smiled: "Don't be nervous, it's not about who is responsible, it's about the problem." It is better for us to present our own problems than to present them with the enemy. Not only this battle, but every future battle must sum up lessons and lessons. Cangzhou's victory is not something to be proud of, because the rebels of Cangzhou are the weakest enemies, and the strongest enemy is there ......"

Zhu Youcheng's hand pointed firmly to the north outside the map.

Wu Huping asked cautiously, "Is it Jiannu?" ”

"Hmph, Jiannu is just a group of robbers with rat eyes, and they also deserve to be called the strongest two words?" Zhu You snorted coldly, "The strongest enemy is the Rakshasas. ”

The Rakshasa Kingdom is an ancient translation of Tsarist Russia. Zhu Youcheng knew in his heart that in a few decades, Tsarist Russia would invade the Northeast. In history, the guerrillas of several hundred people actually fought the puppet emperor Kangxi to cede a large area of land, and Kang Mazi was embarrassed to shamelessly call it a big victory. However, Zhu Youcheng knows the history, but the thousands of households below are not clear, and they can't help but talk about it.

"Rakshasas? Isn't that the evil spirit of myths and legends? Lord Zhu is crazy, the enemies on the earth are not enjoyable, and he still has to fight with the enemies in the sky? ”

Thousands of households are talking to each other.

Zhu Youcheng knew that they were wrong, and explained: "The Rakshasas are not ghosts, but enemies of the extreme north, who covet the land of the south, and they have golden eyes, high noses and deep eyes......"

The atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty is open and inclusive, and there are many foreigners in and out of the capital, so that thousands of households will not imagine people like this as evil ghosts. A few decades later, under the rule of the foolish people of Jiannu, such people are not regarded as demons.

Thousands of households thought in their hearts, as long as Master Zhu is not crazy, what kind of people are not fighting with them. Master Zhu often said that when the fire gun sounds, there are ten thousand taels of gold, and as long as there is a war, we will have a chance to make money. Not this time? Ten carts went out, twenty carts came back, and I heard that there were a lot of good things inside.

Chen Guoqi said: "My lord, since you said that you want to sum up the lessons and lessons, then I will first put forward an opinion, the quality of the firecracker. I had a few soldiers under my command, and after a few shots, the guns exploded, and my hands were burned, but fortunately they were not seriously injured, and they were fine after a few days of bandaging. ”

Wu Huping also echoed: "My lord, the heat dissipation of the firearm is too poor, and after just a few guns, the gun tube is so hot that I can't hold it, but fortunately, the lord added a wooden butt, which allows us to hold the firearm steady." ”

Zhu Youcheng pondered for a moment and said, "There is absolutely no problem with the quality of the firecracker. Master Li Datie is our firecracker expert, he is very serious and responsible, and each firecracker has to be tried several times before it can be taken out. In the future, our fire guns will be changed from forging to casting, and adding copper to the steel, the heat dissipation and strength will be improved, and the possibility of explosion will be greatly reduced. But keep the firebolt from exploding. The best thing to do is to rest for a while every time you let go of the firebolt, so that the firebolt has plenty of rest. For the safety of the soldiers and the more effective killing of the enemy, I decided to resume the original three-stage shooting. ”

Wu Huping said: "My lord is right, I noticed that the fire gun before the explosion actually seemed to be burning in a blazing fire, glowing red, it seems that the temperature of the gun tube is indeed too high." If you shoot in three stages, you will definitely be able to prevent the explosion of the gun. ”

Then Wu Huping made an opinion, that is, when the gun was released, it was too loud. muffled the voice of the command. Although it is not a big problem, it is really troublesome if there is an emergency.

Zhu Youcheng has no choice, he is not an all-knowing and all-powerful god, so he immediately made a "sound pill", so that all the thousands of households became human after taking the medicine, and one by one the sound was like a bell.

Zhu Youcheng had no choice but to brainstorm. Deputy Qianhu Xiong Tingbi smiled and said, "Lord Zhu, you don't have to bother with this matter. Old man. Uh, mark when commanding the army in Liaodong. This problem has also been raised. So I use the flag command, for example, the red flag means to hold, the green flag means to attack, the blue flag means to retreat, and of course the flag action also has various meanings, so that some simple orders can be clearly understood by the soldiers. ”

"Good!" Zhu Youcheng started the case. "Our soldiers are mainly ranged soldiers, their eyes are very good, and there is no problem in conveying orders with flags. And during the recruitment process, I also paid attention to screening for color blindness. The soldiers could distinguish a variety of colors. Lord Xiong, you select ten people from each thousand households to serve as flag soldiers and promote flag commands throughout the army. ”

Xiong Tingbi promised loudly, and then asked a little puzzledly, "What is lust...... Blind? ”

"Color blindness is a genetic condition that is born with the inability to distinguish colors. There are two types of color blindness, one is red-green color blindness, which means that you cannot distinguish between red and green, and the other is total color blindness, which means that you can only see everything in black and white. ”

Xiong Tingbi was stunned when he heard this, his eyes were full of water, and he muttered: "Xiong Er, the old man blames you......"

Zhu Youcheng sighed lightly, Xiong Er was probably Xiong Tingbi's personal soldier, he saw the wrong color of the flag in a certain battle, made a wrong decision, and then was demoted or even beheaded because of the delay in the military plane. Looking at Xiong Tingbi's expression, the latter is more likely.

When Xiong Ting's feelings calmed down a little, Zhu Youcheng asked again: "What about the night?" If you can't see the flag clearly at night, what order should you use? ”

Xiong Tingbi said: "There is generally no military action at night. Whether it is our army or the enemy army, most of them are blindfolded, they can't see anything at night, and they can't march and fight at all, so they basically don't arrange military operations at night, and it's useless to ask for signals. ”

Blindfolded is night blindness, which is generally caused by a lack of vitamin A in food, as long as you eat more eggs, animal offal and other foods, it can be cured without medicine. The people of the Ming Dynasty are mainly vegetarians and are prone to vitamin A deficiency, but the enemies such as Jiannu and Tatars are mainly vegetarians, and the proportion of their night blindness is small. However, under Zhu Youcheng's arrangement, Xizhen Fusi replenished the soldiers with a lot of eggs and animal livers, and most of the soldiers' eyes were still bright at night.

Zhu Youcheng shook his head and said, "Although there are few night battles, you can't be unprepared, and if you are prepared, you will not be in trouble." ”

Xiong Tingbi said hesitantly: "Why don't you try the torch?" ”

At this moment, a loud and clear voice sounded: "My lord, you can give orders with torches and drums." ”

Everyone looked at each other, and the person who spoke was Liu Jingting. All the thousands of households couldn't help laughing, Liu Jingting was Xiong Tingbi's son-in-law, and the old man was in trouble, and the son-in-law went out.

Zhu Youcheng slapped the table: "Okay, anyway, there are not many orders at night, nothing more than attacking, retreating, harassing, etc., using a horn is enough." This task is handed over to Liu Qianhu. You also choose 10 people from each of the 1,000 households, and make sure that each 1,000 households has a commander who can give orders at night. ”

After solving the command problem, he talked about some details of the battle of Cangzhou, and finally Zhu Youcheng asked again: "What other opinions do you have about this battle of Cangzhou?" ”

This sentence was originally a polite remark, and a big victory could have covered up a lot of problems, plus there were so many problems that were not easy to be seen just now, no one should be able to pick out anything else. But as soon as Zhu Youcheng's words fell, a thousand households said loudly: "I still have something to say." (To be continued!)
