Chapter 120: Target Shooting

The next day, Li Haigou and others took 600 furs and went down the Yan'an River.

Yan Zheng sent ten tribal boys who had learned to operate sails to follow, and the task given to them was also very simple, that is, to stay on the ship all the time.

The purpose of this is naturally to monitor these people, and there is no way to do it, after all, he has a small boat now.

He was even worried that the boat would run into a storm and sink directly in the black ditch, and it would all be in vain.

And this time he also deliberately wrote a list of purchases, considering the carrying capacity of the boat, Yan Zheng only chose four things, that is: people, graphite, pig iron, lead!

For the current Meaux, the more iron, the better, and the more people, the better!

Because after this restructuring, Yan Zheng found that the overall labor intensity of the clansmen has increased a lot.

Even he himself feels that the daily workload has increased a lot and is a lot more complicated.

Now he not only has to give lectures to students, but also lectures in the barracks, has homework to correct in the evenings, and has to summon certain people from time to time.

Some major issues still require him to constantly weigh and think, and it can be said that his workload has increased many times compared to when he first came to the tribe.

It can only be said that the increase in productivity brought about by technological progress has affected the tribe in just two months, but this increase in productivity has not made it easier for the tribesmen, which shows that there is a bottleneck in the process of productivity improvement.

Therefore, it is necessary to have more manpower, animal power and mechanical tools in order to avoid bottlenecks in the process of increasing productivity.

………………

"Stand upright!"

"Hello Chief!"

After Yan Zheng saw off Li Haigou and them, he came to the barracks along the way.

The barracks is a new site that appeared after the reorganization of the army, just outside the city of Mo, and a piece of land was specially enclosed as an important place for the barracks.

These soldiers who stayed behind were very high-spirited at the moment, and they felt that they could stay because they had been recognized by Yan Zheng.

They never imagined that those who had been brushed off were all sent to manage the prisoner of war camps, which was the real fat difference.

After Yan Zheng returned the salute, he slowly walked to the high platform made of earth, he combed his big back hair, and wore a short sleeve sewn by Wang Jiang's family, the strange thing about this short sleeve is that there are four pockets - the shape can refer to the Zhongshan suit, but the color is gray and white!

He glanced at the soldiers, and said in a loud voice, "Count each company!" ”

After several company commanders heard this, they immediately beckoned their platoon commanders to report the number, and after the numbers were transmitted, they reported the total number to Yan Zheng.

After almost ten days of study, they are already familiar with this set, but Lu Wan and Anai are a little slow in calculating the total.

They can't be blamed for this, after all, they have only been learning arithmetic for a few days. Fortunately, with the help of several platoon commanders, Lu Wan and Anai quickly knew that there were no fewer people in each platoon, so they just reported the total number of each company.

After Yan Zheng learned that all the staff had arrived, he smiled and said, "Start training!" ”

After speaking, the five company commanders took their respective companies to the designated place and began to practice with a wooden stick.

They carried sticks with four bricks tied to them, and they had to keep their hands shaking. And when they are not called to rest, they cannot put it down.

Originally, Yan Zheng didn't plan to take the exercise personally, but these company commanders didn't understand, so they had to take it for a few months.

Their current practice program is completely in accordance with the infantry drill code.

Since the reorganization of the army, Yan Zheng has promulgated the barracks system, and the soldiers will first run and train after dawn, and then eat.

In the morning, I engaged in military training until lunch. Then, after a short break, everyone participates in cultural learning.

After the cultural study, it is time for military discussions, where you can simulate various battles and give full play to various ideas.

After dinner, it's time to engage in some recreational activities together, such as singing and dancing.

Each soldier has two days off every month, and only these two days can leave the barracks, and according to the system of rotational rest, who is rested.

After this simple barracks system was established, the army said goodbye to the wilderness completely.

Yan Zheng dared to guarantee that as long as this army was well trained, it would be able to fight just by relying on cold weapons.

The only drawback is that it costs a lot of money, and it is necessary to adopt a conscription system and a retirement system, and those who cannot be promoted to officers when they are old must retire.

After about fifteen minutes of perseverance, a number of trembling hands appeared in the queue, and Lu Wan took a stick and began to remind the trembling soldiers.

Yan Zheng felt that it was almost enough, so he announced that he would rest for a while.

As soon as he finished speaking, a wail rang out.

When you have almost rested, you start repeating this action again.

After about two hours of practice raising a gun, it is time to practice assassination, which is also a favorite of the soldiers.

The sparring exercises, all of which were called chirps, forced several company commanders to demonstrate their movements many times.

Then there is crawling, digging trenches, throwing, and balance beam training.

These training novelties are novelties, but the more they practice, the more confused they become.

Because it's very different from their previous training.

"Chief, what are we carrying a stick every day?" While he was resting, one of the soldiers began to ask with a smile.

Yan Zheng glanced at him with a smile and said, "For the sake of using a musket!" ”

"Is that the weapon that emits fire and thunder?"

"That's right, that's an arquebus! It's not thunder, it's a weapon we've made! Yan Zheng patiently explained.

One of the soldiers asked, "Is that really powerful?" ”

Yan Zheng thought about it with a smile, waved his hand and called Lu Wandao: "Go get an arquebus and come out!" ”

Lu Wan immediately rushed to the barracks, took out a tight arquebus covered with straw from a wooden box, and took a leather box.

The first batch of arquebuses had already been delivered to the barracks, and it was only in order not to let these rookies waste ammunition that they were first asked to raise wooden sticks.

After the gun was in Yan Zheng's hand, he checked it first, and after seeing a mark on it, he walked aside with the gun with confidence.

All the soldiers watched with wide eyes, and several company commanders craned their necks one by one.

For this weapon, they have long coveted it.

Yan Zheng looked at Lu Wan, pointed to the iron armor on his body and said, "Take it off and walk thirty steps!" Put the armor there and stand up. ”

Lu Wan obediently complied, took off his armor and walked thirty steps, and then stood his armor there.

Yan Zheng took a deep breath and prepared to practice and let these people know the firing steps of the arquebus.

After grasping the muzzle of the gun, he took out a paper bag from the leather box and poured the gunpowder into it.

Then take out another lead bullet, press it with a stick, and then place the stick.

Only then did he blow a fiery rope and prepare for the shot.

Although the crosshair of the ironwood needle wanted Yan Zheng to scold, after pulling the trigger, he only heard a bang, and the mud on the ground in the distance turned over!

The first shot strokes are over!

Everyone looked at it in wonder, this armor didn't look like it had changed!

Yan Zheng resisted the urge to scold, and the recoil shook his shoulder blades.

He did it again, and this time he held it up.

There was another bang, and I saw that the smoke was filled, and the armor was still not hit.

"This gun is marked with a 3-, and the accuracy is not good!" Yan Zheng angrily handed the gun to Lu Wan and said.

Lu Wan looked at the armor, learned from Yan Zheng to operate it, and pulled the trigger after aiming.

Bang - with the sound of the gun, the armor fell in response, and when everyone passed, they saw a large hole in the iron armor.

Everyone was dumbfounded, and Lu Wan said excitedly: "This ...... This...... This is the power of God! ”

Yan Zheng was also a little confused, his grandmother's, why did Lu Wan hit accurately?

However, looking at the admiring eyes of everyone, he said lightly: "I just finished demonstrating the firing, and I will teach you a secret method in the future, the three-stage attack!" ”

If you look at it purely from the concept, in terms of the use of arquebuses, Yan Zheng has been at the forefront of the world.

The fixed gunpowder plus three stage hits, combined with the just-successful granulation gunpowder, is full of secret methods!
