Chapter 8 Thousands of Troops

In fact, these front-loading guns are just excessive, Jiang Cheng's plan is to wait for the power to become a little bigger and start upgrading into rear-loading rifles.

However, even the current front-loading rifle is very powerful, and a column of columns fired in unison, Jiang Cheng didn't believe that anyone could resist.

"Ready, go!" "Bang bang!"

"Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng!" The line infantry column composed of 300 soldiers on the school field opened fire in unison.

And the target erected hundreds of meters in front of them instantly became fragments.

"Shoot!", "Bang Bang!" "Shoot!"

These 300 soldiers continued to fire in a volley, and for a time the school field was filled with gunsmoke.

And the civil and military officials in front of Jiang Cheng were all stunned at this time.

Especially Guo Ming, Guo Ming's character Ziyu, was originally a Jinshi of Dayan, but it was a pity that he offended people, and then the murdered family was ruined, fled from the capital to Yizhou, and hated the Dayan court in his heart.

And immediately after seeing Jiang Cheng's Red Turban Army, he came to serve, in order to overthrow the Dayan Imperial Court, and Jiang Cheng is also very interested in talents, so Guo Ming's status has risen again and again, and he has achieved the position of the first person in the civil official system.

And today Guo Ming and the others were invited by Jiang Cheng to watch the power of the new weapon, and they were originally unimpressed, but the shock in Guo Ming's heart at this moment is beyond words.

Guo Ming knew that he was right in his bet, he thought that Jiang Cheng would be defeated soon, but at this moment, he knew that Jiang Cheng would not be defeated, but would sweep the world.

And he, Guo Ming, is very likely to become the founder of the country, and he will not live in vain in his life at that time.

Feng Wife Yinzi, he thought that he would have no chance in his life, but he knew that the opportunity had come.

"Bang, congratulations to General Tiangong, the general has this artifact to overthrow Dayan just around the corner, it's really God bless the general!"

Guo Ming immediately knelt down and bowed to Jiang Cheng.

"Congratulations to the general!" "Congratulations to the general!" "Congratulations to the general!" After Guo Ming knelt down, the surrounding generals were not fools, and they knelt down to pay respects.

And the surrounding soldiers saw that their commanders were kneeling, and they also knelt down to worship.

For a while, the shouts of congratulations to the general on the school field rang out.

"Hahahaha, okay, with the help of all the ministers, sweeping the world is just around the corner, and when the time comes, this general will definitely not hesitate to wait for the reward. ”

After some nonsense about the monarch and the minister, it was Guo Ming who spoke first.

"General, how is our musket production?"

"Rest assured, the production of muskets can reach 1,000 in a month, and the artillery can reach five in a month. ”

Guo Ming gasped after hearing the output of the musket, he didn't expect such an artifact output to be so high.

But then he became happy, as long as he occupied more territory, the output would still increase.

Time passed in the process of Jiang Cheng's training of soldiers.

In a blink of an eye, it was March of the fourth year of Chengping, and at this time the weather had gradually warmed up, and the state capital had formed an army of 30,000 people ready to come towards Jiangyang County.

Of course, although they have 30,000 people, it will take more than a month to wait for the run-in to be completed, but it should be said that they should arrive in Jiangyang County in April.

And after a winter of training, Jiang Cheng's army at this time has been completely trained.

And taking advantage of this opportunity, he also changed the military system, and Jiang Cheng directly copied the military rank system of the modern country.

Units at all levels are divided into squads, platoons, companies, battalions, regiments, brigades, divisions, armies, group armies, and front armies.

The group army and the front army are not regular formations, but only wartime establishments, and the military ranks are also copied, and the platoon commander is a second lieutenant. The company commander was a captain. Battalion commander major. Regiment commander Colonel. Brigade Colonel. Division commander Major General. Lieutenant General of the Army Commander. As for the commander of the army group, he was a general.

As for the number of people in each unit, Jiang Cheng also had his own plans: a squad of five people, a platoon of 30 people, a company of 100 people, a battalion of 300 to 600 people, a regiment of 1,000 to 2,000 people, a brigade of 4,000 to 8,000 people, and a division-level army must exceed 10,000 people, and the maximum can reach 20,000 people.

An army has more than 50,000 men, a group army has at least 200,000 men, and the highest-level front army must have at least 300,000 men to qualify as a front army.

Jiang Cheng divided the more than 7,000 people under his command into three regiments, each with more than 2,000 people, which was enough to strengthen the regimental treatment.

The more than 7,000 men were all armed with rifles, and thirty of them were cannons.

These equipment were enough for Jiang Cheng to sweep the south.

In April of the fourth year of Chengping, Jiang Cheng personally led the army towards Jiangyang County.

Along the way, there was no one to stop, and the reinforcements from the state capital also arrived in Jiangyang County in April, and Chen Ping, the governor of the state, personally led the team to suppress Jiang Cheng.

On April 23 of the fourth year of Chen Ping, Jiang Cheng's 7,000 troops came to the front of Jiangyang County.

And the 30,000 Yan troops who had been waiting in front of the county for a long time were already prepared.

"Jiang Cheng, you have no king and no father, you surrender with your hands tied now, I promise to let your subordinates go, and if you don't surrender, what will happen to you at that time?"

Chen Ping, the state pastor on the city wall, also planned to persuade Jiang Cheng to surrender.

"Hahahaha, brothers, the other party actually wants me to surrender, what do you say we should do!"

Jiang Cheng is not easy to mess with, and he is also loud to boost morale. The training of these soldiers in the past few months is already very in-depth to Jiang Cheng's loyalty.

And with the weapons in their hands, they are confident that they can sweep the world, and then they will be the founding heroes, and these words will not shake them at all.

"Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng!" the soldiers' shouts shattered the heavens.

"Hmph, since you don't know whether you live or die, then don't blame us, and order General Zhou to kill me fiercely. Chen Ping was also furious when he saw the Red Turban Army so stubborn, and then ordered the sick General Zhou below to start attacking.

"Cavalry attack and crush them for me!" Zhou Fu of the Chinese army gave a cold order, and the thousand cavalry troops who were ready at any time began to charge one after another.

"Bang bang!" the dull sound of horses' hooves shattered the peace around them.

Thousands of horses charging this prestige is rare.

This is not a joke for the southern ships and northern horses, there are not many war horses in the south, and it is the state capital that can gather thousands of war horses to charge.

And in the eyes of Chen Ping, the charge of the cavalry was enough to crush all the morale of the Red Turban Army.

In fact, what they think is not necessarily wrong, if it was once, it is true that they can crush the soldiers of the Red Turban Army, but now, it is impossible.
