"How? Are you still used to it here? Looking at it like this, it seems that the bones of the body still haven't recovered. Seeing Cao Wenzhao saluting himself, Li Xiao smiled and returned the salute.

Cao Wenzhao served as a company commander under Yuan Chonghuan, and Li Xiao specially replaced his company with revolver rifles and single-shot rifles for the first batch. That's all this stuff produced, it's just enough to assemble a company.

"It's okay, it's hard." Cao Wenzhao's smirk was completely like a small soldier seeing a superior leader.

"This kid has a sturdy body, but it's November now, so he doesn't dare to do that. When you are old, you have physical problems, and they are all caused when you are young. "On a cold day, Cao Bianjiao was still digging fortifications shirtless. A body of dark muscles, shining in the cold wind.

"It's okay, silly boy has a lot of firepower." Cao Wenzhao glanced at his nephew and said behind Li Xiao.

"Boy, are you literate?"

"I went to private school for a year and knew a few words." Cao Bianjiao stood up and saluted Li Xiao.

"Master Mao wants to set up an army officer school in Shanhaiguan, and he teaches some tactical things. The people who teach are all officers who have experienced the battle formation, so let the change Jiao also go. Such a good seedling, being a soldier is ruined. ”

"It's good to be a soldier here, the child is still ...... young!"

"It's not small, you can go into battle to kill the enemy. Don't listen to your uncle, I'm in charge of this. Go back to Shanhaiguan today and report to Inspector Mao. The first batch of 50 cadets will all become officers in the future. Li Xiao punched Cao Bianjiao in the chest, and the young man didn't move. At first glance, it is a practitioner with two brushes!

"You've fought like this before?" While walking, I looked at the fortifications built by Cao Wenzhao. Not to mention, this guy is well-cultivated. I understand Li Xiao's tactics very well!

"In Li Guanzhen, look at Shi Zongbing's subordinates digging trenches like this. I asked what was going on, and they said you taught me. I learned this, and I added a little bit of thought to it. ”

"It's good to have an idea yourself, give you a hundred anti-infantry mines. Placed in front of the battle, Shi Kefa was touched in the middle of the night, and as a result, he was blocked in Li Guanzhen and couldn't get out. If it weren't for the sturdy walls, the bones would be able to beat the drum by now. Don't make his mistakes! ”

"Don't worry, sir!"

"Do not aim with your eyes close to your eyes for a revolver, lest you splash your eyes when the gunpowder explodes. Single-shot rifles are trained to reload quickly, trying to be able to fire six rounds a minute. "Li Xiao has tried it himself, he can four times in a minute. It is estimated that after training, it is not a big problem to masturbate six times a minute.

"I'm training intensively, and this thing is much better than a firecracker. Even if it's a single shot, it's faster to load than a firebolt. ”

"Anti-infantry stuff, put a few behind you at night. In the morning, remember to take it back. The sentry must be bright and dark, and I heard that these Tartars are very good at touching the sentry. ”

"There are light and dark posts at the sentry posts, and the officers will patrol the sentry at night."

Cao Wenzhao's position is convex at the forefront, and he will bear the brunt of something once there is something.

"Why are you still preparing these?" Li Xiao saw that in addition to the newly issued rifles, Cao Wenzhao's soldiers also had a red tassel gun each. This retro weapon appears here, and it looks very eye-catching.

"Get used to it! I feel like I don't have this guy in my hand, and I'm always missing something. The barrel of the previous musket was longer than this, and a bayonet could be mounted on it. But now the gun has a shorter barrel. Although it is easier to pick up this way, it cannot be loaded with a bayonet. In melee, we don't have any guys in our hands. ”

Li Xiao was speechless, who has a musket that can fire six rounds in a row and reload so fast in these years. Far away there are mortars, closer there are muskets, and closer there are anti-infantry mines, grenades.

Even if a few people did rush over, the head and deputy squad leaders of each squad were armed with revolvers. This thing is more than ten meters away, and the lethality is still very considerable. If someone can rush to you, you're too damn slow to reload. You know, this is a hillside. Houjin's war horse can't rush up at all, relying on the two legs of a person, it must be slower than a horse.

Think about it or forget it, since they want to bring it, it's up to them. Anyway, if you really fight, it's good to have one more weapon.

In fact, Li Xiao also wanted to see how powerful the new thing was. After all, the weapon has not been tested in actual combat, and many shortcomings cannot be exposed. Who knows, when it's too cold, the bullet will not be able to shoot in the chamber.

If you had considered it earlier, perhaps most of the Eight Banners would have been wiped out last winter.

There are always accidents in life, and accidents are even more likely in war.

"Do a good job, this battle is fought and you will be promoted to battalion commander." When he was about to leave the position, Li Xiao was about to feed Cao Wenzhao a mouthful of chicken soup for the soul.

"Dashuai, it doesn't matter what you are long. If you hadn't fished me out of prison, my life would have been gone. What are you talking about, but now I feel that as long as I don't go back to prison. ”

"Don't worry, no one in my place would dare to let you go to prison." The place in the edict is really not for people, and Cao Wenzhao, an iron-clad man, was actually scared of this virtue.

Li Xiao wanted to return to the Chinese army, because the overseers sent by the imperial court came. Normally, the overseers were eunuchs. After all, the eunuchs are all people around the emperor, and they belong to the extremely reliable Nabo people.

But this time, it was not a eunuch who came, but a grain inspector from Shaanxi. One of his mother's grain overseers, came to Lao Tzu to supervise the army. Although they all have the word "governor", the nature is 108,000 miles away. This person gives Li Xiao the feeling that this guy is the emperor's henchman, the hardcore kind.

"Xiaguan Hong Chengchou has seen the governor." Hong Chengchou clenched his fist at Li Xiao and arched his hand.

Li Xiao's latest official title is Daming Shandong Governor Admiral Liaodong Military Affairs!

As soon as he heard the name, Li Xiao knew that this was indeed Zhu Youzhen's henchman. It's also a henchman!

"Lord Hong, please be seated! Come and watch the tea. ”

"This time, Xia Guan received the holy decree of Long Live and came to the front line of Liaodong to supervise the army. When passing through the capital, Banzai specially summoned him. Tell the lower official that this time he came to the front line in Liaodong, and only let the lower official bring his eyes and ears. The mouth is on the capital, and the affairs of military affairs are only the governor's head. Hong Chengchou put his position quite low.

As soon as he came in, he strongly said that Lao Tzu was the audience of the battlefield.

"Lord Hong is polite, you are suppressing bandits in Shaanxi. I heard that the bandit Gao Yingxiang looked at the wind and looked at the wind, and Li Xiao was a little Meng Lang when he was young. When you encounter something, you have to mention it more. "People are polite, and Li Xiao is naturally polite. Thinking in my heart, how to deal with this guy.

But anyone who studies the history of the late Ming and early Qing dynasties does not know the name Hong Chengchou. This guy is so famous that he has become a household name.

According to Li Xiao's experience, all the guys who have left their names in history and are still big names are all shrewd and capable. This guy in front of him, don't look at the grinning and putting his figure very low. But in fact, it's definitely a guy who eats people and doesn't spit out bones. It is estimated that in terms of the level of thick black, Sun Chengzong's old fox can compete with him.

"Where! Where! The governor praised it falsely, and no one knew how to look at the Ming military circle. When it comes to the elite soldiers, there is no one on the right side of the Liao army. There is only the Liao army under the command of the adults, which can compete with the fierce Tartars. Long live the subordinates, but he specially instructed the subordinates to learn more about the method of governing the army with adults. Don't hide your secrets, Lord Governor! "Hong Chengchou, this guy, no matter how he speaks, has a smile on his face. really responded to that sentence, don't laugh or speak.

This guy doesn't feel very realistic, but he feels very amiable. Without the slightest shelf of the emperor's favored ministers, no one would have a bad feeling for such a person.

Li Xiao was alarmed in his heart, this is a smiling tiger. Don't look at him smiling sincerely, but Li Xiao is careful that this guy will never spit out bones when he eats people.

If you say a word more to such a smiling tiger, you may fall into the pit. Just thinking about how to end the conversation, Hong Chengchou smiled and pointed to the few people standing behind him and said with a smile: "This time, the lower official also brought three thousand Qin soldiers to help in the battle, and I will introduce it to the governor."

This is Zuo Liangyu, a general of Shanxi Province, and this is He Huchen, a general of Tongguan. This is ......! ”

The first name he heard made Li Xiao serious. Zuo Liangyu! This guy is actually messing around with Hong Chengchou now!

Take a closer look at this fierce general in the history of the Ming Dynasty, who is second only to Cao Wenzhao in terms of toughness.

This guy is more similar to Guan Gong inside, with a height of at least one meter eight. He has a red face and three long strands of hair under his chin. Danfeng eyes, lying silkworm eyebrows. Standing there with a straight body, he looks like a practitioner.

In comparison, the He Huchen next to him looked a little short. But it's also a strong spirit, and at a glance, you know that it's not a stable master.

The rest of the generals are not good at looking at their faces.

This guy came with a team, saying it was to help the war, and the hell knows what they wanted to do.

Originally, I was thinking about sending this guy to Jinzhou. Let Mao Wenlong play with him for a few days and fool things over. Now it seems that this guy is taking this Overseer mission extremely seriously.

"You have come from afar to help our Liao army deal with the Tartars. It's really hard for everyone, and after a while, Li will set up a banquet to catch the wind for the generals. The soldiers of the Qin army under the command of Lord Hong can camp behind Dahu Mountain. Li would transfer the wine and distribute it to Brother Qin Jun. You are from the inland, this time you come to Liaodong, you have to taste our Liaodong seafood.

Ai Husheng, transfer seafood to the generals' battalions. Let the brothers of Qin Jun taste our Liaodong specialties. ”

"No!" Ai Husheng agreed and immediately went out to prepare. The Liao army was about to vomit when they ate seafood, but the vast majority of these Qin troops came to Liaodong for the first time, and even many of them had never seen seafood.
