The time is not bad, about half a cup of tea, all the people are on the combat post, including the artillery, they are all ready for battle, as long as there is a specific direction, these artillery can immediately open fire.

"Wu Desheng, come over to me."

Wu Desheng is the stationmaster of this military station, for the title of stationmaster, many people feel a little uncomfortable, but the court is named like this, and the nearly thousands of soldiers under his command are also under his command, in addition to more than 70 miscellaneous servants, this is also a small ruler, hearing Cheng Chuliang shouted, this guy immediately jumped down from a height of more than one meter, and trotted all the way over.

"How many times a day do you do this drill?"

Cheng Chuliang didn't have a smile on his face, and Wu Desheng was also wondering in his heart, isn't our drill fast enough? Or maybe something else went wrong? There shouldn't be, all the training is done according to the teachings of the army, and this speed should be in front of the nearby military stations.

"We do it once a day, sometimes twice, alternating between day and night."

Although he didn't understand what Cheng Chuliang wanted to say, he still answered honestly, and the people around him were also watching here, which made Wu Desheng a little nervous, after all, he was a small military station commander, and these people around him were all high-ranking officials, and even the protectors were here.

"Your drill is very good, but if you continue to drill like this, it will be a waste of manpower and material resources, from now on, when all the personnel are assembled in place, these artillerymen must have to do a live-fire exercise, they just put the artillery in the center of the field, and then aim in a certain direction? How do you know they're going to be able to hit someone after their cannon is fired? Therefore, when the drill starts tomorrow, it is necessary to set up an enemy in the field from time to time, and then let their shells attack there. ”

How important artillery is to an army, these people on the scene know that the reason why the Datang army is invincible, the role played by artillery is also very important, but if you only let them pose, then this kind of drill is not good, so Cheng Chuliang wants to change this way.

After Wu Desheng listened to Cheng Chuliang's words, he was also happy in his heart, but their place was too remote, and the transport convoy was only able to come once in about 12 days.

So Wu Desheng said this problem, in the barracks of our army, there are convoys coming over every day, so the shells are not a problem, they can fire shells vigorously and train recruits, but in remote military stations like ours, when the transportation problem is not solved, this is really too difficult.

When Wu Desheng said it, these people present were also stunned, since following Li Xiang, they didn't worry about logistics, after all, Li Xiang will give them more weapon supplies, when you want one, Li Xiang can send you three, so no matter how big the loss on the battlefield, these people never care, as long as they can win the battle.

But the specific situation is analyzed, Wu Desheng said these words are also true, this is not on the main line of communication, if they are allowed to conduct live ammunition drills every day, the warehouse will not be able to support this consumption mode, and it may soon be consumed, once there is really danger, no matter how good their technical training is, but there are no shells in the warehouse, it can only be just watched.

"Otherwise, let's take a compromise, how many shells do you have here?"

Xiao Shougui saw that the two were in a dilemma, so he stood up and wanted to solve the problem.

"I have a total of more than 1,600 shells."

Wu Desheng thought for a while, and gave a general figure, in such a small military station, there are more than 1,600 shells, which is already a very rich reserve, but the weather conditions in the Western Regions dare not say, once it encounters strong wind and sand weather, let alone twelve days, it may not be able to pass twenty-two days, so the food and drink are stored for nearly forty days.

"We have a total of seven artillery pieces, and every time we train, let each artillery fire two shells, and this consumption is also within the allowable range, and it will not affect your combat effectiveness."

After Xiao Shougui finished speaking, Wu Desheng calculated a little, so that about twenty to thirty shells would be consumed every day, and each replenishment cycle would be about four hundred shells.

If you encounter strong wind and sand weather, then this kind of training can be stopped, Xiao Shougui said this way has also been recognized by others, the infantry is to exercise the speed of action, the artillery must be trained to be accurate, but if they don't give them shells, how should these people train?

Veterans are good to say, after all, they have been trained on the battlefield, although the recruits have passed the recruit training camp, but they must also practice from time to time, if they do not practice often, these people's hands will slowly change, and when it comes to the day of the battlefield, they may not fight.

"Just do what Lord Metropolitan Protector said, and now you give them an order to the southeast side of 1,200 meters."

Because many of the measurement units in the Tang Dynasty are too chaotic, Li Xiang used some new units of measurement for them, which were calculated step by step in the past, but the problem is that the gap between the two parts is too big, and the gap between the tall and the short is too big, and there is no way that is too clear, so Li Xiang began to implement reforms in the army, and it is still okay at present.

After receiving Cheng Chumo's order, Wu Desheng gave an order to the artillery, 1,200 meters to the southeast, at this time, the artillery observers rushed to the wall on the side, and then used small flags to signal the people here, and the people here were slowly adjusting the angle of gunpowder and artillery.

Although Xiao Shougui has not been on the battlefield, he has also seen artillery fire, and the skills of these people in front of him are all able to pass, three months of recruit training camp, if you can't even do such a thing, then the general responsible for training recruits should be pulled out and beheaded, the Tang Dynasty court gives you so much money and good seeds, do you give this kind of useless soldier? Who do you cut if you don't cut?
