Under the high sun, two armies that did not know each other's existence were approaching each other. (The fastest update speed is in the Aishang Novel Network biquge.info) Suddenly, the sentinels who went out of each other discovered each other's deposits. After a period of entanglement, fighting, breakout, and interception, the leaders of the two teams learned the current shape from the detective who escaped death.
Immediately, according to the map in hand, the leaders of the two teams unanimously made the decision to seize the high ground on the side of the road. The two sides divided a force and drove rapidly to the high ground, one of which was faster and the other was closer. Soon, the two sides who had reached the summit almost simultaneously collided head-on at the top of the high ground, and the battle quickly began.
While the battle on the high ground caused countless casualties, the main forces of the two teams, which were slowly advancing their troops, finally lined up in a relatively gentle depression near the high ground. After a short break, the two parts of the preliminary recovery fù body lì officially fought. The artillery fired strings of solid bullets and shotguns at the opponent. The soldiers, who endured the enemy's artillery fire, ignored the fact that their comrades were knocked down by the flying buckshots, and stubbornly continued to advance until they broke through the coverage of the artillery fire.
One hundred steps, eighty steps, when the other party's face was clearly imprinted in his line of sight, a sudden rise of white smoke covered it again. Of course, this side was not to be outdone, and a volley of volleys was also oblique, and in the four-flying bullet net, countless people fell miserably, and with the sudden weakening of each other's firepower, the hand-to-hand combat began.
The main battlefield is littered with corpses, and the high ground has finally divided the winners and losers. The victorious side did not have time to pursue the opponent and immediately pulled up the light artillery. With the support of artillery, the soldiers who continued to hold steady rushed down like fierce tigers, and suddenly became the last straw that crushed the opponent.
With the breakthrough of one wing, the losing side finally retreated, but most of the casualties of this era occurred during the retreat. I saw that the opponent who could kill the excitement did not estimate the possibility of the losing party, and the trapped beast was still fighting, and he continued to invest his strength to repeatedly rush and kill. However, the impact of the infantry was limited, and it was the few light cavalry that inflicted a rather horrific loss of blood on the opponent.
The sun was setting in the west, the battle was finally over, the soldiers who had cleaned the battlefield ran to the commander-in-chief, and in the big tent that was hastily set up, people came and went, reporting the results of the battle, reporting losses, accepting new orders for the next step, and more importantly, the summary after the battle
Well, the above scenes are all conjectures in Zheng Kezang's mind. In fact, the actual military drill between the first standard of the boy boy camp and the Kunlun standard that he had arranged for a time did not take place. There are naturally many reasons why this is the case, but no matter how you sum it up, the main ones are only two points.
One is that the forces of the two sides scheduled to be exercised are not equal: although the Kunlun standard, which has no artillery, firearms or even bow and crossbow support, has a large number of people, it is absolutely impossible to face the first standard of full armament, and once the war starts, it is very likely to be eaten up by the opponent in a short time; On the contrary, if the first standard is allowed to give up the battle between artillery, fire and Kunlun standard, then this exercise, which Zheng Kezhang pinned great hopes on, may be completely reduced to a cold weapon performance.
Of course, this is not the most critical point, on the real battlefield, the phenomenon of cold weapons against hot weapons is not completely unexistent, if you drill with such a setting, you can still see a hearty killing, and even if it is cold weapons against cold weapons, you can also understand the effectiveness of military discipline in improving combat capabilities and the true meaning of the so-called gun formation and hollow gun formation.
But the crux of the problem is that in the Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty before the first squadron, the generals relied on the force value, and the famous generals relied on the experience value, and there was no set of perfect pre-war analysis and post-war summary methods, even if the ancestors left a number of art of war, it has become a metaphysical ornament, so even if Zheng Kezhang commissioned a few staff officers, they could not integrate the drill outline required by Zheng Kezang, let alone imagine some possible unexpected factors.
So Zheng Kezhang can only let them go back to the furnace, and tell them how to preset the scene, assess the casualties, and draft and revise the regulations of the director's department - because Zheng Kezhang was just an Internet writer in his previous life, and a lot of knowledge was a harmonious version found on the Internet, so at most it was only a half-tone that was not even an audiophile, so many issues still had to be discussed repeatedly before they could be put into trial, and Zheng Kezhang himself was a grandson of the prison country and could not devote all his time to the affairs of the Boy Scouts. Therefore, the exercise originally scheduled for early September can only become far away
"Liu Qing is here!" Just when Zheng Kezhang had a headache for the Boy Scout joint exercise, Zhu Jin, who had just received a batch of military supplies from Dongning, seemed very good. "Come, take a look at the weapons sent this time, it's a good thing inside!"
One of the good things in Zhu Jin's mouth is the scarlet armor produced by Zheng Kezang using a hydraulic forging hammer -- the chain mail produced at the same time is produced in the number of 100 sets per month, and even the boy scouts of Zheng Kezang's line are not fully equipped, so naturally it is impossible to send them to Siming -- this kind of Qingtang Qizi armor, which is slightly stronger than the chain mail, is not liked by Zheng Kezang because it is too heavy, but in the eyes of Zhu Jin and Ming Zheng's senior military attachés, it is a good treasure that can be passed down to the world.
"Lone has tried within fifty steps, and Ershi's strong bow can't even penetrate the armor, and it can only be pierced at thirty steps, but it needs to be within twenty steps to shoot through the entire arrow." Zhu Jin looked a little radiant, no wonder, such a fine armor was actually Zheng Kezhang found a secret method from the pile of old papers to make it appear in the world, which could not help but make him feel relieved as a father. "Twenty steps, Liu Qing, it's all twenty steps, do the archers still dare to shoot arrows in front of the armor?" Of course not, at this distance, the opponent will rush up within a few breaths, and if any archer dares to shoot an arrow at this time, he will either seek death or be a daring artist. "And this is a two-stone strong bow, and the bow strength is even weaker."
Liu Guoxuan's face also showed joy when he heard this, now more than 100,000 Qing troops are piled up on the front line of Chaozhou to confront the Zheng army, which is not more than 10,000 people, it can be said that he has a huge advantage of ten to one.
So Liu Guoxuan asked, "Your Majesty, how many collars does this batch of armor have?" How many more can Taiwan send? ”
"There are five hundred collars in this batch." Feng Xifan, who was beside Zhu Jin, explained on his behalf. "It's all that Dongning has accumulated over the past year."
There are many reasons for such a low output, at the beginning it was because of the problem of hydraulic forging hammer, although Zheng Keshuang minimized the connectors, but due to poor design tolerances and brittleness, lack of toughness, easy damage and other reasons have caused the operation of hydraulic forging hammer to be poor, and later these problems have been improved, but at this time the lack of iron production in Taiwan has become a new constraint.
"In three months, Dongning will send another fifty leaders."
"Five hundred collars?" After Liu Guoxuan groaned slightly, he directly ignored the storage of the fifty pieces of armor behind. "Although there are still shortcomings, they are barely used."
"What Wu Pingbo said is not bad." Feng Xifan half-truthfully agreed. "According to the joint report of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry, now Shisun has invited the famous armor craftsmen among the Yi people to try to make iron man armor, if it is a qiē shun lì, there will be better armor to supply the whole army by this time next year." At this time, the two guards brought two firearms, one of which was handed over to the inexplicable Liu Guoxuan. "This is a firearm produced by the domain, the workmanship is extremely exquisite, it was specially made by the grandson for the boy boy camp, and now there are many of them, so it is allocated to the front of the army." Feng Xifan's words seemed to be explained, but in fact, the connotation was transferred, but Zhu Jin was too excited just now, and now he looked tired and didn't pay attention, and although Liu Guoxuan heard a little, he didn't want to wade into this troubled water for the time being, so he didn't agree. "Wu Pingbo, let's see what's different."
"Running fire?" Liu Guoxuan could see at a glance the main difference between this firearm and the bird's gun currently used by Zheng Jun. "The amount has also increased, no wonder, it turns out that the gun pipe is much thicker than the bird gun, I'm afraid it's not easy to handle."
Zhu Jin laughed on the side: "Liu Qing's eyes are really like torches, so let's see how the demonstration goes." ”
As he spoke, one of the guards pulled out a paper tube, bit open one of the ends, poured a part of the gunpowder into the barrel, and then stuffed the whole tube into it, compacted it with a strip, and finally clamped the loaded gun to a wooden support.
"Take five sets of light armor that the clan is accustomed to." Five sets of armor were stacked to form a target, the distance of the target was set at a position of one hundred steps, and the guard aiming at the target snapped the hanging knife, and with a loud bang, Liu Guoxuan saw that the guard's body trembled and almost did not fall. "I've fought three times, why can't I get used to this huge force." Zhu Jin was a little dissatisfied, but did not play further. "Take the target and show it to Wu Pingbo."
Liu Guoxuan fixed his eyes and saw that although the shooter shook his body, he still hit the target, of which a big hole appeared in the first layer, and there were traces of breaking in the second layer, and a lead bullet on the third layer was embedded in the completely deformed armor, but in Liu Guoxuan's experience, under the impact of this kind of Cheng dù, the armored soldier had already broken his ribs.
"This kind of firearm can penetrate the double cotton armor within fifty steps, and the Qing army will be shattered even if the triple cotton armor is worn." Feng Xifan introduced again. "The king named it the deer to death with one blow, to show the difference between it and the common bird." Feng Xifan paused. "This time, five hundred deer guns have also been shipped."
"What is the firing rate of a tap fire?" Liu Guoxuan is worthy of being an old soldier, and he asked the most critical question at once. "Also, what's going on with that paper tube?"
"It is said that the fire rate of tap fire is 80% on weekdays, and even if it rains heavily, it is claimed to be 50%." Feng Xifan answered one by one. "As for the paper tube that Wu Pingbo just saw, Shisun was afraid that the boy scouts would not know the severity of the gunpowder and stuffed it at will, so he put every part of gunpowder and lead into a paper tube, and when firing, except for a part of the gunpowder placed at the fire door, the rest only need to be stuffed in, but it saves the hand to calculate the medicine, but after the shot, it needs to be carefully cleared, and the production is quite cumbersome."
"It doesn't matter if it's cumbersome," Liu Guoxuan naturally saw the benefits of customization at a glance. "Wouldn't it be tidal just wrapped in a roll of paper?"
Feng Xifan took out a leather bag: "Shisun mends the shark and Kunyu to take its skin and make a waterproof outlay, as long as it is not immersed in the water, it can be guaranteed that the gunpowder will not be damp." ”
"It's ingenious." Liu Guoxuan praised it, and then leaned over to Zhu Jinyi. "The minister also asks for more deer guns from Dongning."
"I'm afraid it's not easy!" Zhu Jin sighed. "Dongning lacks iron, so even if you have fine armor and sharp weapons, you can't build more, so, Liu Qing, the war is please, you must occupy more Fujian land, and transport more manpower and materials for Dongning."
