This sergeant exercise is indeed a long-planned arrangement by Li Jiancheng, and its purpose is to test the achievements brought about by the military training in the past few months!

Li Jiancheng's military exercise is divided into blue and red sides, and the blue army represents Li Jiancheng's modern military concepts and weapons! And the red side is probably a semi-modern mobile unit built after imitating the Houjin and improving it!

In the Red Army, Li Jiancheng successfully eliminated the archers with musketeers, and the paper-shell rifle named 'Open Flame No. 1' by Li Jiancheng withstood many tests and was popularized by Li Jiancheng after being determined to adapt to various conventional environments.

The red troops replaced the archers with spearmen, and then formed a field mobile force with a large number of cavalry and elite infantry to attack and defend!

These elite soldiers are the elite soldiers who have not only come to the capital to participate in the audit in the past few months, but these people really do not delay their efforts when they see the future, and tens of thousands of people have come in just a few months.

The elite troops of these 10,000 people were all arranged by Li Jiancheng on the red side, which is also the reason why he just said that the team can be compared with the Houjin troops, although some of the 10,000 people are sand, but most of them are really the elite of the elite!

The troops of both sides gathered 20,000 troops in equal numbers, and the goal of the exercise was to fight a war of annihilation. The victory or defeat is won or lost when the casualties of one side exceed 70 percent.

Now Li Jiancheng in the Blue Fang Headquarters is sitting here looking at the sand table, and he said to Qi Jin with a smile: "Hehe, like this, Commander Qi, do you have the confidence to defeat them!" ”

In front of Li Jiancheng is the descendant of the Qi family, his name is Qi Jin, Qi Jiguang's nephew, and the only person who has inherited Qi Jiguang's modern firearms and tactics.

After Qi Jiguang's death, Qi Jin commanded the remnants of Qi's army and Nurhachi's Houjin army at the Battle of the Hunhe River (March 1621. That is, in March of the first year of the Apocalypse), the bloody battle against the Daling River. Thousands of musketeers killed tens of thousands of elite Manchu Qing elites with two white flags and two yellow flags. Later, the Manchu Qing Dynasty bribed the captured Ming gunners with a lot of money, and fired artillery to bombard the positions of the Ming army, and the rest of the Qi army struggled for several days under the bombardment of the traitor artillery team, and finally ran out of ammunition and food, the whole army was annihilated, and Qi Jin died in battle.

Whether it is loyalty or ability, Qi Jin is impeccable, and this is also a talent that Li Jiancheng obtained from Qi Zuoguo!

Qi Jin and Li Jiancheng also got along for a month. With a preliminary understanding of the emperor's temperament, Qi Jin smiled bitterly: "Weichen do his best!" ”

Li Jiancheng listened and said: "What do you try, you must pull off the beard of that guy from Xiong Ting Porridge!" ”

On the other side, Xiong Tingcongee, the commander of the Red Army, heard this, and I don't know what Lu Dao thinks, Xiong Tingcongee has already been fished out by Li Jiancheng! Just kidding, Li Jiancheng exchanged most of the government for the responsibility of the Liaodong war situation, how could he not get a single Xiong Ting porridge, the press corps that came back from Liaodong last time had already brought enough evidence.

After Xiong Tingcongee was released, he was brought to the new military camp by Li Jiancheng, and it was also after a month or two that Xiong Tingcongee had an understanding of the emperor's deployment, and it was rumored that the emperor planned to counterattack Houjin seemed to be true.

If you don't believe it, look at the soldiers in his hands, not to mention those well-trained Beijing soldiers who are forbidden by the order, they are the 10,000 elite soldiers who draw a little bit of a hundred miles. That's really every soldier king, and he is definitely a soldier with full combat effectiveness. Xiong Ting Congee had to sigh at the wisdom of the emperor once. Just like that, you can get such a division of a hundred battles.

And now the army commanded by Xiong Tingcongee seems to be superior to the Tartar troops, and the muskets of long-range fire are simply bursting, and they can fire a shot in less than 5 seconds on average, and the musket team can even repel the enemy's charge with the same proportion of people. In addition to their elite soldiers, these soldiers can be compared with the Manchurian Tatar soldiers, with rich combat experience, tenacious combat effectiveness, and nearly half of them are cavalry, they were chased by the Tatar cavalry before, Xiong Tingcongee can finally sweep away the depression this time, and come to chase others.

Xiong Tingcongee looked at the map seriously, this time in addition to the annihilation battle, there is also a certain basis for the battle for positions, from the sand table, except for a small number of hills and woods, most of the area is plains, which invisibly gave his cavalry a great advantage, as a well-known general, Xiong Tingzhou is fully confident that the other party will be completely annihilated. Whether in mobility or combat effectiveness, he has the confidence to win.

It is true that the map of this exercise is very unfavorable for the blue side, there is not much terrain they can use, and one of the previous ambush points is also one of the few places that can be used! Whether it's hills or forests, these places can only be played once before losing their advantage, so the Blues will have to take their chances no matter what. The Red Army troops in front were getting closer and closer, and Song Nian, Chen Shaojie and others were also very nervous, after all, although it was an exercise, it was also the first time they had fought a war.

The team of the red side, which seems to be dressed up in the New Fourth Army, is led by Zuo Liangyu and Man Hang, and at first they were very puzzled by the dress of the army, how can any soldier not wear armor.

Later, as a consideration, Li Jiancheng still gave them soft armor, which was very effective in preventing swords and slashes, and also ensured the mobility of the troops. Hardboard armor, which is no longer needed after the need to carry more and more weapons and ammunition.

Zuo Liangyu waved his hand to stop the army at this time, and he said: "I see that the terrain in front of me is dangerous, and I am afraid that there will be an ambush!" ”

Man Hang listened and said: "Ha Luha, although the front is dangerous, but the area is not big, even if there is an ambush, I am afraid that there will not be many people in ambush!" ”

Zuo Liangyu is also a cautious person, he said: "No, the blue army's firearms are sharp, and it doesn't take many people to cause large casualties. We can't be careless! ”

Man Hang nodded when he heard this, and said to the front: "Class 7, take someone to the front to investigate!" ”

Don't look at Man Gui, he looks five big and three thick, but in the past few months since he came to the New Army, he has also learned a lot of new vocabulary. After the squad leader of the 7th squad saluted and said yes, he took his team members to investigate, and one by one the bullets were loaded with guns, making this group of people who looked like the New Fourth Army almost the same as the Yellow Army.

Song Nian and the others also saw this situation and said: "It's not good, the enemy has sent people to investigate, everyone pay attention to concealment." ”

For the army's field combat training, Li Jiancheng specially recruited a team of outstanding hunters of this era to compile special teaching materials in combination with some modern military teaching materials. Particular emphasis is placed on intensive training such as latent and camouflaged survival in the wild, which is not available in the current era. Li Jiancheng also intends to make these guys become hunters, because in this era, only hunters are like special forces.

Of course, all the current training results are only preliminary, because the total time is not long! Song Nian and the others pounced on the straw mats one by one, holding their breath to lurk, but fortunately, the position they chose was not very high, because the cavalry was too fast, too far ahead, even if they relied on a little hillside advantage, they might be wiped out in an instant. After the scouts investigated for a while and found that there was no situation, they waved flags to the rear, Zuo Liangyu and Man Hang nodded and continued to lead the troops forward.

When Song Nian and the others saw this, they all became even more nervous, and after exchanging glances with each other, Song Nian pulled a white thread in his hand and pulled it tighter, and the war was about to break out... (To be continued......)
