276. Firearms Unit (II)
"I will personally supervise the firearms unit, that is, I will personally assume the position of battalion commander. After that, I was left to deal with most of the matters concerning the firearms unit. And this deputy battalion commander is served by this Yuan Hua. Jingwen said.
Only then did everyone find out that there was a twelve-year-old Xiao Zhengtai next to Jingwen, and everyone knew that his name was Yuan Hua. However, everyone is not too enthusiastic about where Jingwen got this little Zhengtai from. Anyway, this little Zhengtai will not affect their status. No one in this firearms battalion is aware of this actual combat effectiveness, so they do not think that this firearms battalion has a high status. And they later learned that they were very wrong, and this firearms battalion was the most important fire support unit in the whole army, and no one could do without it.
"Marshal, is this firearms battalion responsible for ambushes?" Feng Yong asked.
Jingwen shook his head and said, "Ambush? You can tell! If the firearms battalion could only be used for ambushes, then I am afraid I would not have formed it. I'm going to come up with something new, a weapon that uses gunpowder. For example, if we put gunpowder in a bamboo tube and throw it out, isn't it an explosion? When the time comes, if it is thrown into the enemy's cavalry, what will be the effect? ”
"If the enemy's cavalry had not adapted to this gunpowder weapon, the sound of the explosion might have alarmed the enemy's horses, and the enemy would not have been able to fight. And if it is against the Turks, it can have the effect of surprise. Zhang Dong said.
But Jingwen continued: "If we mix this gunpowder with some broken iron nails, or some porcelain shards, what will be the effect? ”
This time, everyone present felt a chill, and obviously thought of a result, that is, they were killed by the broken iron nails and broken porcelain pieces in the gunpowder. Although everyone still doesn't know how powerful it is, but just now I saw that the foundation of that hill was blown up, which made everyone shudder. The shattered nails would use the power of the explosion to kill those who were not wearing heavy armor in one fell swoop. Even with the current medical conditions, it is impossible to achieve timely treatment.
"It's too ruthless, it's too ruthless! It's really a ruthless weapon! Feng Yong said with palpitations.
"Also, don't we have catapults? What do you think if we put a big powder bag in a catapult and throw it out? Jingwen asked.
Everyone broke out in a cold sweat again, obviously shocked by Jingwen's description. If that's the case, I'm afraid those walls will be blown up. Just now a hill was blown down, so what is an ordinary city wall? If this is the case, then I am afraid that there is no city in the world that cannot be attacked. Isn't this the Snow Shame Army invincible?
"Jie Shuai, this firearms battalion is really powerful! If this is really the case, then I am afraid that my Datang will sweep the world and be invincible! Yan Lide said.
Jing Wen also continued: "Of course, my Datang will sweep the world in the future, and I will be invincible." However, we will now start with the training of soldiers in firearms. We first have to train for a month of blasting, and Yan Lide will supervise the army to teach everyone how to carry out blasting. First of all, it is necessary to eliminate the fear of firearms among the soldiers, which Yan Lide may have to worry about a lot. ”
"Good. With such an artifact of quarrying, of course I have to worry a lot. Next, I am afraid that the construction of the city in Pingyu County will be completed in half of the time ahead of schedule, and I am afraid that it will not take three or four years to build a county seat. Yan Lide said.
Yan Lide for this job. It's still more reassuring. Although he is a prisoner, he is just a person used by the emperor to express his attitude, and he is not really worried about Jingwen. And now that Jingwen can come up with such a powerful weapon, it means that Jingwen is very important to Datang. But if you are loyal, there will be no problem. Now Jingwen asked Yan Lide to build the city, so Yan Lide would help two more times if he could help.
"Now that we have decided to form a firearms battalion. Our firearms battalion had a company of catapults, a company of grenadiers, and finally a company of explosives. These three units represent the three methods of firearms warfare, and we can fight according to these three methods in the future. At present, everyone has to train well, and I am afraid that it will not be long before we will actually fight. Jingwen said.
"Jieshuai, we are now peaceful in the world, who are we going to fight?" Feng Yong asked with some confusion.
Jing Wenshen said mysteriously: "Whoever brings you humiliation, we will beat him!" ”
"Turks? We're going to go on a northern expedition to the Turks? When? Feng Yong asked excitedly.
Everyone looked at Jingwen excitedly, as if they wanted to know when they would be able to make a northern expedition against the Turks. They all dreamed of the Northern Expedition to the Turks, and this shameful army was also established to destroy the Turks, so everyone is very concerned! Now that we heard the news, everyone was very excited.
"The Buddha said, don't say it!" Jingwen said.
Everyone was angry for a while, obviously very speechless about Jingwen's pretending to be mysterious.
Jingwen can't say that at the end of next year, the Northern Expedition to the Turks will begin! According to history, in the winter at the end of the third year of Zhenguan, the Turks caused difficulties due to snowstorms. In order to prevent the Turks from going south to seize the border and plunder, and in line with the principle of war to take advantage of his illness to kill him, the Tang Dynasty attacked the Turks in a timely manner. When the time comes, his shameful army will definitely go to the battlefield, and even use it as the main force. At that time, if you want to take revenge on the shame, are you afraid that you won't have a chance? However, this kind of thing can't be said in too much detail, and once it is too detailed, then I am afraid it will not stand up to questioning. Once asked, I'm afraid Jingwen will have no way to explain. Jingwen can't say that he can predict the future. At that time, I am afraid that Emperor Li Shimin will have to cut himself down as a demon, because the imperial court has not formulated a relevant Northern Expedition plan, you actually know, this demon who either reveals secrets or talks nonsense.
"Okay, everyone go back to train for me, and then try to get revenge on the shame in the future. As long as you can defeat the Turks, who will dare to despise you when the time comes? At that time, you will no longer be a rebel who was captured by the Turks and taken as a slave, but a hero who stands up to the sky and expands the territory of the country. When the time comes, I am afraid that there will be countless beautiful women willing to marry you, will you still be afraid of not having a wife? We now have more than 100,000 people, almost all of them are a herd of males, and there are not even a few sows. When the time comes, if you can become heroes, countless girls are willing to marry you, and when the time comes, you will hold one in your left hand and one in your right hand, and you will enjoy it! ”
"Hahahaha......" everyone laughed out loud. (To be continued......)
