102. Firearms training
The members of the other escort team trained as hard as Lu Gou and Lu Shi, but Lu Gou and Lu Shi were strong and real soldiers, and they had participated in several battles and performed well, and both of them became small banners and were in charge of thirty soldiers.
After the training, Lu Gou Yu and Lu Shi received a notice from the general banner to take the two best soldiers under their command to report to the martial arts training ground in the mansion of Lord Qianhu.
There are five hundred households in one thousand households, two general flags under each hundred households, and five small flags in each general flag, and finally there are more than 100 excellent soldiers gathered in the martial arts training ground.
Ma Dingyuan's original intention was to let Ye Feiyu better select a hundred elites, but when Ye Feiyu saw them coming, he didn't have to train a hundred people, so he let them all stay.
Lu Gou Yu and Lu Shi naturally glanced at each other, not knowing what Lord Qianhu meant by letting them come here, and then they heard the Golden Wolf Immortal Master say loudly: "You are all elite soldiers of the Guardian Army, let you come here today, it is this Immortal Master who is ready to personally give you special training, so that you can become the real guardian warrior of Mingwei Castle, and always keep Mingwei Castle safe!" ”
"If any of you have practiced firecrackers, stand up."
These more than 100 soldiers were people who had never practiced firearms. This is a weapon that can only be practiced by specialized musketeers, and it is naturally inaccessible to ordinary military households.
But the second question, when asked which of these soldiers had ever heard of the firecracker, they all raised their hands.
Compared with the Indians, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty knew better the role and power of these firearms, but the quality of the firearms made by the Ming Dynasty was extremely poor, and it was easy to explode, and the musketeers were like a battalion of dead soldiers. Very few soldiers will voluntarily apply to join the Musket Battalion.
Lu Gou Yu and Lu Shi suddenly chuckled in their hearts, and couldn't help but be surprised. This Golden Wolf Immortal Master won't let them become musketeers and form a musket battalion, right?
As they expected. A strange item suddenly appeared in the hand of the Golden Wolf Immortal Master, which seemed to be somewhat familiar with the Fire Commander, and in front of it was a hollow iron pipe, only those Fire Bolts were shaped like this.
Most of the weapons used on other battlefields are only three types, knives, guns, spears, and others are not practical, such as maces, axes, etc., which are used to scare people. If you use it on the battlefield, it's like looking for death.
Although these heavy weapons are powerful, they are very heavy, and they cannot continue to fight, and the troops are marching in a hurry, etc., and the amount of armor and food on their bodies is not light, if they still carry dozens of pounds of mace, gilded hammers and the like, will they not tire people to death?
Armies in history. The use of light weapons, even if it is cavalry, the weight of the spear is not very heavy, those cavalry in Europe with heavy spears to charge. The first charge, regardless of whether or not it can stab the enemy, will give up the spear. Then draw the knight's sword and fight.
In terms of the ground team headquarters, the Tang Dynasty Mo sword soldiers are typical heavy weapons troops. According to research, these Mo knives weigh about twenty-two pounds. It's already quite a heavy combat weapon.
Ye Feiyu continued: "This is also a kind of firecracker, you can call it a rifle, this immortal master will teach you how to use these rifles, but don't worry, these rifles are different from the firearms used by ordinary musketeers, they rarely explode, you can use them with confidence." ”
Speaking of this, his face sank: "But everyone must remember that these rifles are extremely powerful, once they hit someone, it is difficult to save them, no matter when, the muzzle of the gun must not be pointed at their companions!" ”
Now Ye Feiyu's marksmanship is very accurate, and the martial arts training ground has placed the target that Ma Dingyuan's relatives usually train in archery, after saying this, Ye Feiyu opened the insurance, held the gun in both hands, and shot at the target more than a hundred meters away.
There is not much difference between a single-handed gun and a dual-handed gun for Ye Feiyu, but now it is better to teach these "elite" soldiers to shoot, or according to the standard movements.
There was a loud bang, and many elite soldiers who had never seen the musketeers shoot were startled, and then they saw the arrow target flying backwards, Ma Dingyuan's own soldiers immediately went over to pick up the arrow target, and walked over with the arrow target with a shocked face.
Ma Dingyuan and Huang Qing had keen eyes, and they saw from a distance that a transparent hole appeared in the center of the newly made arrow target!
The target is used for archers to train archery, it must be strong and durable, it is made of a finger thick whole plank, and the surface is wrapped with linen cloth or straw rope, even if it is a three-stone strong bow, although it can shoot two or three hundred meters away, but at such a distance, the accuracy is difficult to guarantee, and it is impossible to penetrate the target.
Immortal Master Ye just casually shot at the arrow target, and hit the bull's eye, shooting the arrow target out of a transparent hole, if it hit a person......
Ma Dingyuan and Huang Qing both gasped, not daring to imagine what would happen.
Why is this rifle so powerful? Could it be that the magic weapon of the immortal family is not successful?
Seeing the arrow target brought back by the soldiers, such a thought suddenly floated in everyone's hearts.
No wonder Ye Feiyu said that he could use a hundred people to deal with Kong Youde's thousands of Qing soldiers, if he was ambushed, or unexpectedly arrived near Kong Youde, and hundreds of people suddenly attacked, no matter Kong Youde is immortal, he would not be able to escape death.
Then Ye Feiyu demonstrated the burst function of the AK rifle, and the fixed target instantly turned into sawdust, which made Ma Dingyuan and the others speechless.
These generals and soldiers of the Celestial Empire will not be much better than the European turtles and indigenous Indians in their sense of shock and modern firearms.
Ye Feiyu put down his rifle, looked at the soldiers who were stunned, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone already knows the power of these firearms, I will hand over these powerful weapons to you and teach you how to use them, but you only have ten days to practice." ”
Ma Dingyuan stood up at this time, his face was very serious, and he said in a sharp voice: "Because the Golden Wolf Immortal Master is giving food here, it has attracted the attention of other people, and the Golden Wolf Immortal Master has calculated that in ten days, Kong Youde will send an army to come over to seize your food and kill your wives, children, and parents!" You didn't think of that? ”
"I don't want to!" A group of soldiers responded loudly to Ma Dingyuan.
It is rare for them to eat here for a few days, sleep for a few days and sleep peacefully, no one wants to go back to the days when they could not eat enough every day of hard work, and every day they are afraid that the landlord will come to collect rent, especially when they flee, they have to open one eye when they sleep, lest they will be stoned to death and eaten into their stomachs.
Whoever robs them of their food is their enemy! No one doubted that the Golden Wolf Immortal Master had calculated something, even the grain could be conjured, and he could also come up with such a powerful immortal magic weapon, and it was not a piece of cake to predict what would happen in a few days.
Ma Dingyuan's voice was very infectious, and he nodded and said in a deep voice: "You must master the use of the rifle as soon as possible, and go with the general to kill Kong Youde, so as to ensure that our Mingwei Fort will not be taken away, and in the future, everyone will have dry food to eat every day and fat meat to eat every day!" ”
For these soldiers, it is useless to say anything about the righteousness of the country, and it is better to arouse their fighting spirit than a mouthful of fat.
People who have never been hungry cannot understand what hunger tastes like, it is a strong need from any part of the body, an empty stomach feels like it can digest anything, and the stomach is constantly squirming and running-in, as if it wants to digest itself.
Driven by the horror of hunger, many people knew that swallowing the bark of grass roots, or even Guanyintang, would make people die in pain from indigestion and bloating, but they all did it because they could not resist the fear of hunger.
Most of the soldiers here have been starving, and some have even secretly eaten human flesh, and if they were allowed to return to their previous starvation conditions, they would rather die. Not to mention that Ye Feiyu and Ma Dingyuan asked them to attack Kong Youde, even if they rebelled and overthrew the throne of Emperor Chongzhen, they would not blink an eye!
Distribute the rifle to these soldiers, turn off the burst function, Ye Feiyu personally explained the use of the rifle, and soon, everyone initially mastered the method of firing, and then carefully practiced shooting one by one, even Ma Dingyuan, these generals are no exception, they are full of awe of this immortal magic weapon.
In fact, shooting is very easy to master, just like the current military training of college students, it is impossible to contact firearms in ordinary times, only on the day of live ammunition targeting, can you really touch the gun, under the guidance of the instructor to shoot the gun, but a 56-type ordinary bullet costs ten yuan is really black-hearted.
Automatic rifles, even easier to master and use than those semi-automatic rifles in military training for college students, ten days is enough time for soldiers to master the essentials of shooting, of course, the accuracy must be crippled, fortunately their opponents are only troops with primitive weapons, only they shoot the enemy and the enemy is difficult to hurt them, accuracy is not so important.
Treating rifles with reverence allowed these indigenous units to master their use more quickly.
In just ten days, Ye Feiyu took out more than 100,000 rounds of ammunition, basically every soldier fired thousands of bullets, and the average shooting volume of 100 rounds a day is a luxury for modern soldiers.
Basically, it is very difficult for these soldiers to miss the target within 50 meters, and the hit rate outside 100 meters is also more than 30 percent.
The spies sent by Ma Dingyuan also accurately grasped Kong Youde's whereabouts, this guy was not in Penglai in Dengzhou Mansion, but stationed troops in the Zhaoyuan area, which was convenient to control the territory of Laizhou, and Penglai was guarded by his right-hand man Kong Youliang.
Kong Youliang is Kong Youde's brother, the two echo from afar, firmly control Dengzhou Mansion, and the army is also the strongest in these two places, according to the report of the spies, Zhaoyuan over there, at least 7,000 elites have been stationed!
Now that he knows Kong Youde's location, Ye Feiyu did not delay, it is time to take Dengzhou Mansion and Laizhou Mansion under his control. (To be continued......)
