"Jiao Wenbin, this Prince Gong, Prince Alcohol, Li Zhongtang, Wenxiang, Baojun, Li Hongzao, ......, these princes and nobles, and the bigwigs of the court, are all watching from the viewing platform, looking at the true skills of my Qin army. Your department must use all its strength to teach the group of waste materials on the other side how to fight. Don't embarrass me. ”

On the starting position of the Qin army, Liu Xian said to the captain Jiao Wenbin. Today's exercise on the school field is a brigade of the Qin Army against two Niu Lu of the Praetorian Guard.

Jiao Wenbin solemnly gave a military salute to Liu Xian. "Hou Ye rest assured. The Marine Brigade will never discredit the Qin army. ”

"Let the autumn wind sweep away the leaves."

"Yes. The autumn wind sweeps away the fallen leaves and sweeps away thousands of troops! ”

Jiao Wenbin's shouting immediately caused the soldiers of the whole brigade to respond. "The autumn wind sweeps away the fallen leaves and sweeps thousands of troops!" The loud voice spread far away to the stands, making Prince Gong, Prince Alcohol and other Eight Banner princes and ministers suddenly darken.

At this time, on the position of the Praetorian Guard, Dorona was sweeping his gaze over the faces of the officers in the row in front of him. These two Niu Lu were the two strongest of the sixty Praetorian Guard Niu Lu, and as soon as the officer was an officer, Duolonga could clearly call out his name. "Do you hear the shouting from the other side? Qin Jun looks down on us. The Han army is looking down on us. And who are we? ”

"We are the Praetorian Guard. Surong Gyeonggi, guarding the foundation of my Qing Dynasty. If even we are looked down upon by the Han army, these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, this great mountains and rivers. Who's going to guard it? How can I still live in the Qing Dynasty? ”

"Take down the Qin army on the opposite side. With the guns in your hands. ”

Dorona stopped talking and reached out to take a bullet from Goshha's hand. "It's rubber bullets. Unless you are unlucky enough to hit your eyes and throat, you can't kill anyone. The warhead of such a bullet is soft. It's painted with red fuel, and when it hits the body, it's a red dot that can't be erased.

I hope that after the exercise, when the two troops walk off the school field, this kind of indelible red dot will appear on everyone on the Han army opposite. ”

Is Dorona really sure in his heart? Never. As a veteran of the battlefield, he can also know that his two Niu Lu's troops are not opponents of the more than 500 fierce soldiers opposite. But the fight is imminent, who can extinguish their own prestige. What about the ambition of others?

Liu Xian beat his horse and ran towards the viewing platform. Dorona continued to speak.

On the viewing platform, Liu Xian directly stood with Prince Gong, Prince Alcohol, Li Hongzhang, Li Hongzhang, Wen Xiang, Baojun and other top giants present. And the moment Liu Xian arrived at the viewing platform, the voices of many Praetorian Guard officers in the surrounding ring below the viewing platform, and the voices of contempt and contempt for the Qin army all disappeared.

This is Liu Xian's majesty today. 'Let you wait a long time! ‘

It was he who single-handedly defeated Russia and France, defeated Japan, saved Vietnam and the Ryukyus, and then put a finger on the majesty of the Netherlands. Hit out the fame. Hit out the majesty.

You can say bad things about the Qin army behind your back, but in front of Liu Xian, in front of the first general of the Qing Dynasty right now, no matter how good a person is, he can't open that small population.

On another viewing platform opposite this viewing platform. Britain, France, Germany, Russia, the United States, and Japan ......, and all the ministers in Beijing in China gathered here. Also here are the Peruvian envoys, who have just arrived in Beijing.

For a battle between the Qin army and the Praetorian Guard, these envoys won the victory of the Qin army without exception. And it was an easy victory. Even if the instructors of the Beijing Praetorian Guard invited authentic German officers.

"I've seen Prince Gong and Prince Alcohol. I've been waiting for you a long time! ”

Liu Xian first saluted the two royal giants, and then hugged his fists at Li Hongzhang, Li Hongzao, Wen Xiang, Baojun and others without lowering their figures.

"A battle is about to take place. How long has it been since I was able to open my eyes? ”

"Liu Hou is a face-to-face teacher. Today, you should see the majesty of the soldiers under your command. ”

Facing Liu Xian. From Prince Gong and Prince Alcohol to many important ministers, everyone returned the courtesy. Regardless of whether Liu Xian noticed it or not. At the beginning, Liu Xian's big backer Zhang Shoudai could only be ranked in the middle and lower positions among the group of people on the viewing platform. This man is changing so fast.

I think that when Liu Xian was working hard in the camp, didn't these bigwigs present regard him as a chess piece? A cocoa-dispensable chess piece. But what about now? Powerful factions like Li Hongzhang, royal giants like Prince Gong and Prince Alcohol, must treat him with courtesy, without the slightest contempt and negligence. I don't know if they still remember Liu Xian's respectful look when he faced them?

Dorona glanced back at the viewing platform. Liu Xian has arrived, and he is going back. As he passed by the artillery position, Dorona greeted the general. "Are you all ready?".

"Yu Zhongtang [Duo Long A is the book of the military department], a qiē is ready. You can get into position at any time! ”

"Now that you're ready, don't waste time. A quarter of an hour later, the exercises began. ”

Under the platform of Duolong A's horse cannonballs, he asked Prince Gong and Prince Alcohol for instructions, and with a wave of his hand, someone behind him naturally rushed forward to give the order.

A quarter of an hour later, the exercise officially began.

I saw that the artillery on both sides of the Qin army and the Praetorian Guard army quickly began to enter the position, because the distance was close, aiming at the other side, only half an hour later, the artillery fire on both sides exploded violently. For a while, the red rubber dots on the positions on both sides flew around.

The artillery rang out for more than a quarter of an hour. The artillery fire stopped, and soon the losses of the teams on both sides were reported by the statisticians. The Praetorian Guards lost more than 200 people at once, while the Qin army lost less than 50 people.

On the battlefield, this situation is almost non-existent, and it is impossible for the artillery on both sides to smash and bombard the opponent's position with all their might, without worrying that the opponent's shells will fall on their heads. This phenomenon can only be on the exercise ground.

But on the exercise ground, the imbalance of the losses of the Qin army and the Praetorian Guard also surprised everyone at home and abroad in the two stands.

"Sapper shovels, digging trenches, bunkers?" Dorona's tone was full of caution.

"Not bad. It's to dig bunkers. I'm preparing to give each soldier a sapper shovel. Although it is not clear how much of the specific effect on the battlefield is. ”

"How many pounds does a sapper shovel weigh? How much silver? ”

"No more than five pounds. The cost price of a handful is around one silver dollar. ”

That's the big truth. Liu Xian prepared to equip his troops with a collapsible sapper shovel, weighing about 1A9 kilograms, and the cost price was really a silver dollar. The sappers used good iron and steel.

It's just that the sapper shovel carried by the Marine Brigade at the moment is simply a short shovel. You can refer to the first generation of the People's Liberation Army's sapper shovel, and a silver dollar can be made five times with quality and quantity. The difference between this and Liu Xian will not go into details.

Duo Long Ah sneered and glanced at Liu Xian. He would have a crippled brain to believe that the cost of a shovel was a silver dollar.

Liu Xian didn't care, and turned a blind eye to Li Hongzhang's gaze on the side. Just looking at the position of the Qin army, the Marine Brigade has just begun to conduct civil engineering training, and their training ground is still only in the sand, and the land has not yet been strengthened, and now this speed still relies on the foundation that existed before being selected into the Marine Corps.

Five feet long, twice wide, and one foot deep, the earth is piled up all around, especially at the head level. In the military education of the Qin army, it takes five to ten minutes to dig a single bunker like this.

If all the soldiers in the Qin army's position had been dug into standard individual bunkers, the firepower of the eight three-inch breech guns in the exercise would have caused 30 casualties to the Marine Brigade to be considered high.

The loss of 50 people can only be said that the individual bunkers of the Marine Brigade were not dug up to standard, and perhaps some soldiers were not able to dig them at all. Liu Xian has been looking at his watch, the artillery is only ten meters away from the reserve position, and the cannon can be easily put back in place when people push it, and then the distance between the two sides is so close, so that the artillery can be fired within eight minutes and cause good lethality.

It's just that Qin Jun's appearance has shocked everyone.

The death of a large number of soldiers caused considerable confusion among the Janissaries. The fragmentation of the organizational structure and the loss of officers and backbone officers at the grassroots level can greatly reduce the combat effectiveness of a unit. At this time, on the Qin army's side, Jiao Wenbin blew the whistle in his mouth, and in the sharp whistle, the remaining soldiers of the Marine Brigade quickly climbed out of the trench with rifles that had been inserted with bayonets, and scattered in formation in the smoke of the fire on the side of the exercise ground, and began to charge towards the opposite position with their waists bent.

The speed of this action made the foreign envoys and military attaches present a little discolored.

Two squadrons of Qin soldiers began to flank. When attacking in a roundabout way, the formation is very spread out, which is very different from the popular infantry tactics today.

Of course, the Praetorian Guard officers on the opposite side were organizing the soldiers and forming a defensive line. It's a pity that they don't even have a pothole to lie on now. The shells used for shelling are also rubber shells, and they do not have the power to blow the surface into potholes after exploding. This specially selected training ground is particularly flat.

The artillery bombardment on the side of the Praetorian Guard began first, and the artillery bombardment on the side of the Qin army also quickly began to return fire. The artillery positions on both sides did not need to consider their own threats, and the sound of artillery was a pleasant one.

The breech gun, a very old-fashioned rigid mount gun, can fire three rounds in two minutes is powerful.

With only eight artillery pieces on one side, it was impossible to effectively suppress the Qin army. The Qin army has dispersed, and a force is carrying out a flanking attack. The attacking Qin soldiers lay down on their stomachs, and then continued to move forward by jumping and crawling using what they could use, and some of the soldiers also began to lie on the ground and shoot with rifles.

As time passed, the Praetorian Guard's response became more and more panicked. The frontal attack of the enemy was still not far away, and the soldiers who attacked in a roundabout way were less than fifty meters closer to the battle line, and soon the attacking Qin soldiers began to throw grenades. I don't want to kill, I just want the loess hidden in the grenade to obscure the view of the Praetorian Guards on the opposite side...... (To be continued......)
