"Very good, Ma Sen, you have led the craftsmen to build the bird gun, reward five taels of silver, and make persistent efforts!"

Lin Fei Dayue, praised Ma Sen, and rewarded him with silver money, and in Ma Sen's thousand thanks, he left the bird gun and planned to use it for the right person.

Of course, he must keep one of his own to show the importance he attaches to the birds!

"The other seven bird guns are not small, and you can form a bird gun team to think that they are a model in the army, and it will be convenient to promote them in the future!"

Lin Fei thought about it like this, and he thought about other things.

In fact, firearms in the Ming Dynasty have developed very well, but because of the corruption of the system, the discipline of craftsmen, and corruption, there are many problems with firearms, and firearms with explosive chambers often appear, which leads to serious problems in the use of firearms.

It's not that the soldiers in the late Ming Dynasty didn't understand the sharpness of firearms, but the high rate of explosions, coupled with various problems such as the social status of soldiers, led to firearms becoming burning sticks that no one used.

And Lin Fei set up craftsmen is different, these eight firearms, are carefully built by craftsmen, if there is a problem, but it is necessary to investigate the specific responsible person, plus the materials are full, the bird gun has a strict use of regulations, there should be no problem.

Only if the bird gun is excellent and there will not be too many unexpected problems, can the bird gun be promoted, and the formed firearms unit will also be the mainstream in the future!

And soon, Lin Fei heard a news that the annual border army burning was about to begin, so after today, he led the top four military households to Dashunzhuang to obey orders.

This time, the guards were left to defend the bunker, and the rest of the people were the main force in this battle.

This time there were a lot of mules and horses, and Lin Fei also sent strong men to form a baggage team, which could also transport plundered spoils as a logistical support.

Knowing that Lin Fei was coming with troops, Zhang Xiuzhong, the new officer of Dashunzhuang, was extremely happy, and after seeing the four teams of soldiers and horses trained by Lin Fei, he was even more surprised.

These four teams of soldiers and horses, full of spirit, neat and orderly, full of confidence, looked like elite soldiers and strong generals, Zhang Xiuzhong was shocked, and did not understand why in a short period of time, Lin Fei could actually train such elite soldiers and horses.

Lin Fei only has one border dungeon under his command, although he heard about Lin Fei's training in Tuntian, but he can't connect with this strong army now.

Although the number of these four soldiers and horses is still insufficient, they seem to be stronger than the family members under his command, and the number of family members under his command is even inferior to Lin Fei's soldiers and horses.

This time the border army burned the wilderness to suppress the bandits, what needs to be attacked is this Liuguang Ridge, which is dozens of miles away from us, this time we went into the mountains to suppress the bandits, from the side of Xuzhuang into the mountains, all the way to the bottom of the Streamer Ridge, this section of the road is gentle, until the Streamer Ridge mountain slope begins to be steep.

After entering the streamer ridge, there are three levels, the first two are not to worry, we should wait for a battle, there is no more than the next level, built with the mountain, it is the old nest of bandits, and the bandits also attach great importance to it and it is difficult to break.

Before that, everyone had also discussed, but they felt that there was only one way to attack hard, but in this way, there would inevitably be heavy casualties and a lot of costs.

Now that Lin Fei is coming, Zhang Xiuzhong asked Lin Feizhi's opinion.

The gun shot the first bird, and now is not the time for him to be strong, Lin Fei naturally smiled and said, "Obey the orders of the adults!" Shangguan ordered him to kill the enemy bravely, thinking that those bandits were just a gang of rabble, and they would not be the opponents of the imperial court soldiers and horses such as me! ”

After resting in Dashunzhuang for one night, the next day was slightly bright, and Zhang Xiuzhong, the officer of the management team, ordered all the soldiers and horses to set off, and after burying the pot and cooking, the army started.

This time can be described as a prosperous age, the entire jurisdiction of Dashunzhuang soldiers and horses can be said to be out of the nest, the use of people is also a lot, the scale of the momentum, in the past years are one of the best.

In this expedition, Zhang Xiuzhong can be said to have made a bloody investment, even his own henchmen, all of them were mobilized, there were more than 30 of them, and the most elite soldiers and horses were none other than Lin Fei, the entire army was only more than 150 soldiers, and Lin Fei's soldiers and horses accounted for almost one-third of the strong.

Everyone went all the way, at this time it was the bitter cold of midwinter, the cold cracked skin, and before they had gone far, the morale of the Dashunzhuang army was low.

These people began to move slowly, and from time to time complained about the ghost weather and came out to suppress the bandits, and the men who were responsible for transporting the heavy grain and grass drove the mules and pulled the carts, and the cold wind blew, and they also cried out loudly.

The difficulty of marching all the way also made Lin Fei see the difficulty of using soldiers and horses in the ancient dynasty, but this expedition was an errand that required human lives, especially in this cold winter season.

Before entering the mountain, the road was calm, and when entering the Streamer Ridge, the mountain was also gentle, but gradually it became steeper.

Just when everyone was resting on a gentle hillside, they suddenly heard a burst of shouts from the mountain: "Kill, brothers, kill the officers and soldiers!" ”

Looking from afar, I saw smoke and dust billowing on the hillside, and it seemed that a large group of people and horses were dispatched, and from time to time there were crowds, and a large group of thieves rushed down the hillside with shouts.

Everyone was shocked, and Zhang Xiuzhong, the officer of the management team, scolded: "Grandma is a thief, she dares to rush down, she is in a hurry to die!" ”

Then he pulled out his big knife and roared: "The bandits are arrogant, we are the army of the Ming Dynasty, and the whole army will annihilate the thieves who come to commit crimes!" ”

With the assistance of the Jiading, Zhang Xiuzhong quickly put on his iron armor, and the captain of his Jiading, as well as the Jiading under his command, were also wearing iron armor.

Lin Fei's army, the four armor commanders under his command, those brave broadsword soldiers and four bird soldiers, all of them also wear iron armor, and the rest of the people and others also wear leather armor, compared to the rest of the dunker border army, but it is not a little bit stronger.

From this, it can also be seen that Lin Fei has captured the merits of the previous two times, if it weren't for this, where would there be the current grand occasion!

Those soldiers and horses looked at Lin Fei's military horses with envy, everyone was wearing armor, this is not something that ordinary troops can have, even the soldiers and horses of Zhang Xiuzhong, the officer in charge, are only fully armed, and the rest of the soldiers and horses are not much different from ordinary Ming officers and soldiers.

"Kill the officers and soldiers!"

The bandits on the mountain rushed down in a hurry, this group of bandits looked like a hundred people, the leading bandits, tall, holding a machete, whined and roared: "Brothers, the officers and soldiers are just chickens and dogs, follow me to kill them, and destroy them in one go!" ”

This bandit leader has fought a lot of battles with officers and soldiers before, and in his eyes, officers and soldiers are nothing more than that, these miscellaneous soldiers do not pose much threat, as long as they charge bravely, they can defeat the officers and soldiers!

Zhang Xiuzhong prepared for war, and after a period of panic, the Ming army reluctantly arranged the formation, and Zhang Xiuzhong's elite family was arranged at the end, as his reliance, naturally to preserve his strength.

The rest of the soldiers and horses were distributed on both wings, and in this kind of battle, Zhang Xiuzhong still focused on his own soldiers and horses.
