The armament matter has been dealt with, but there are still many military affairs that need to be cared for.

Armor is too scarce!

Any ironclad infantry, equipped with shields, and long knives, will greatly improve the combat effectiveness, one person against ten people, and a well-disciplined ten-person ironclad squad will be able to resist his current rebel army, if the will to fight is strong, and the physical strength is sufficient, it will be a one-sided slaughter.

It can be seen the importance of iron armor.

It's a pity that there is not a single weapon of such a country in Shangyun Town's arsenal.

Yang Qi ordered someone to transport the hidden weapons and leather armor from the cave of the armory, Li Wu stared at these familiar and unfamiliar armors, his face was a little ugly, and he looked at Yang Qi helplessly, it turned out that you stole it for a long time, which made him miserable.

A full eight sets of imperial infantry standard leather armor were assigned to Tie Qing's Li Wu, and he accepted it with a smile on his face and distributed it to the various leaders under him.

In addition to the set that Yang Qi was wearing, there was also a set of rewards for the captain of the guard, Wang Wei, who was immediately excited and showed his loyalty. Wang Wei's character data has also changed from [Respect] to [Reverence], and it seems that rewarding valuable items will also increase loyalty, and the leather armor that originally wanted to be rewarded all immediately decided to keep a few sets. The rebel soldiers who are waiting for their exploits can be rewarded with glory.

There is also a team of soldiers from the county camp brought by the warden, which can resist the slashing of ordinary swords, which can be called a good thing to charge into battle.

Zhou Ping chose a set of intact leather armor, and the remaining five sets were given to Zhou Ping's subordinate leaders, wearing leather armor, and tying a long knife around his waist, he looked like a very strong soldier, exuding a heroic spirit.

As for the three-stone bow and arrow, no one can use it, Zhou Ping can pull, but the archery skills are not good. The others, not to mention, can't pull the bowstring at all.

There are only five or six hunting bows in the bow barracks, less than one stone, which is okay for hunting animals, but the power and accuracy are greatly inferior. The number of people is less than one team, so we can only wait for the future to slowly expand.

Yang Qi walked to the open space to the west of Shangyun Town, which was the temporary training school of the rebel army.

"Enter, stab, do it again, enter, stab"

The neat and powerful voice is majestic and loud, although there is still chaos, but the momentum is amazing.

It was evident that the training had been effective, and a total of 300 recruits had been recruited, and they were undergoing simple training, formation, and simple marksmanship.

More than 200 people in the elite battalion were holding ash spears, and those that had not had time to be replaced with bamboo guns, in a neat and uniform formation, and kept doing assassination training.

It's amazing that in just two days, there has been such an achievement.

Li Wu looked around the audience with an indifferent face and shouted loudly.

At this time, I saw Yang Qi coming over and gave a military salute.

"Dashuai"

"How's the training?" Yang Qi asked in a low voice.

"It's far away, and in a hurry, let them barely know the queue, and then teach the military formation is already very reluctant. It takes a long time to train to compete with the Imperial Army. ”

Yang Qi shook his head: "There is no time, the soldiers are fast, and Pingcheng County can't be allowed to have time to react to the transfer of troops." ”

Li Wu was stunned when he heard this: "This, it's too hasty!" The marshal will not be postponed for a few days. ”

Yang Qi was silent for a moment, and said categorically: "No, if you drag it out for a day, you will be in danger for a day, and only then can you break through Pingcheng County." As soon as we found out that we were rebelling, we moved all the people to live in the city and defend it. We don't even need to send troops, we run out of food and grass and collapse on our own. Send another elite cavalry, and you can slaughter it cleanly. ”

Li Wu broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this, if the government is cautious, using this strategy is the safest way and the least resource consumption.

"Even if you despise the rebels, you only need to gather the township soldiers and concentrate the two hundred-person department in the county seat, and there will be a scale of 1,000 people. At that time, the opposing organization will collapse after a single impact. ”

"Dashuai, you've made up your mind!"

"Tomorrow the army will be raised!" Yang Qi made up his mind, "The grain and grass are not enough to support consumption, and we need to march into Pingcheng County as soon as possible." If all goes well, the number of displaced people from all counties will skyrocket to 100,000, and finally besiege Nanyang Fucheng. ”

There are four counties in Nanyang Prefecture, namely Pingcheng County, where Shangyun Town is located, and adjacent Xiang County, Siyang County, and Xinyi County, with more than 100,000 people in the four counties. Nanyang City, the capital of Nanyang Prefecture, is a big city with a population of more than 100,000, and if Nanyang City can be conquered, the rebel army will really become a scale and increase its power.

"Today, let the brothers in the elite battalion eat a good meal of broth and take care of their bodies, so that they can train into elite soldiers."

"No, I thank the brothers for their kindness." Li Wu was overjoyed when he heard this, and bowed his hand.

How did the elite soldiers of ancient times come about? There is nothing more than wine and meat, and only by eating meat can you grow muscles and strength. People who don't eat meat don't have much combat power at all, so the cost of elite soldiers is enough meat and rice to pile up.

As for morale and the will of officers and soldiers, if you talk about it without this, it will already be funny
