Chapter 46: Forming a "New Army"

A long procession marched along the official road leading to the center and left.

This is the Golden State Guard.

There are a total of 4,740, with Xu Shang as the pioneer, and Shang Kexi, who has returned to the team, as the queen of the palace.

In addition, the Tiger Brigade, which returned ahead of schedule, cruised on both sides of the army under the leadership of Su Xiaojing.

In the treacherous Liaodong, such caution is necessary.

Yang Chengying, as the commander of the whole army, led the Chinese army to protect the grain and grass and was at the back of the team.

Beside him was Ning Wan me.

"My lord, before leaving, I said these words to the girl in Tianfu, did I have another meaning?"

Ning Wan asked with a smile as he held the reins of the horse in one hand.

"In addition to warning Tian Chonggui not to make small moves, he also added some firewood to their already angry flames." Yang Chengying said humorously.

"Oh? Your Excellency is so optimistic about Governor Wang's plan to recover Shenyang? ”

It is easy to talk to smart people, and I can easily see the meaning of Yang Chengying's words.

Tian Chonggui was angry, and he must have pinned his hopes on Wang Huazhen to uphold justice for him.

However, the premise of Wang Huazhen's southward movement was to recover Shenyang, which was close at hand and posed a huge threat.

Until the goal is achieved, Wang Huazhen will not take substantive action against Yang Chengying.

As much hope as there is, there is as much disappointment as there is.

If Wang Huazhen can't recover Shenyang, or even lose Liaoyang, he can't call the shots for him.

Then, the blow to Tian Chonggui is unprecedentedly huge.

"As a courtier of the Ming Dynasty, of course I hope that Wang Huazhen can recover Shenyang."

Yang Chengying sighed and said, "However, the reality is cruel. The Ming army said that it was elite, but how many soldiers were well fed and professionally trained. ”

In his previous life, as a top student of the military academy, he knew too well the truth of "accumulating sand into a tower". Without long-term and rigorous training, it is a dream to want to sweep Houjin.

What's more, there is also the word "interests".

"For the first time, Jianyu occupied the big city of Shenyang, and enjoyed the material life that could only be had by imagination before, who wants to return to the poor ravine, and the power of this outbreak is very huge."

Yang Chengying analyzed very calmly.

Ning Wan nodded in agreement: "What the adults said is extremely true. It's a pity that Governor Wang is stubborn and will not listen. ”

"So we have to be fast, and when we get to the center, we have to carry out more rigorous training, and at the same time build weapons and armor for the next battle."

Yang Chengying looked at the long line with a very serious expression.

To treat severe cases, the medication should be light at the beginning, and then the strong medicine can take effect until the body gradually improves.

In the past few months, Yang Chengying has spent a lot of money and food on providing food and clothing for the soldiers.

Then practice the body lightly for five kilometers, and then practice the queue to subtly enhance their obedience.

After dealing with the hungry people and deterring Jiang Bi, Yang Chengying has established his absolute authority in the ranks.

Now is the time to use strong medicine.

As soon as he arrived at the Zhongzuo Institute, Yang Chengying issued an order to order the troops tomorrow, and those who did not arrive would be beheaded to correct military discipline.

Then continue to exercise the soldier's body, waiting for Ning to finish the weapon I built.

After I arrived, I rushed to Port Arthur non-stop. Pull the sailor soldiers he secretly selected in advance to the place where he repaired and built weapons in advance, and cast weapons and armor.

In addition, learning the story of Ming Chengzu, he fed chickens, ducks and geese outside, and also placed some farm tools on the site.

In case someone comes to check, it can be turned into a farming tool at any time.

A set of rhetoric was also prepared in advance, a large number of people in Jinzhou needed farm tools, and the commander made Li Pinghu sympathetic to the people's feelings and set up a place to build farm tools for the people.

In this way, half a month passed.

On the third day of the first month of October in the first year of the Apocalypse, the weapons needed for all the soldiers were finally created.

Also on this day, Yang Chengying announced his plan for the reorganization of the army.

1. Set up a battalion of light cavalry and named it "Fengzi Battalion". Based on the Tiger Brigade, the Mongolian Yiding who came to defect was added to form a cavalry battalion of 1,000 people.

Su Xiaojing, the commander of the former Tiger Brigade, was the commander of the army, and Hadar, who was born in Mongolia, was his deputy.

2. Two spear battalions were formed, named "Water Battalion" and "Fire Battalion", with 2,000 soldiers. Equipped with a long spear and two throwing guns. With Xu Shang as the commander of the two battalions.

3. Set up a battalion of sword and shield infantry, named "Shanzi Battalion", with 1,000 soldiers, a big sword, and a shield. Shang Kexi served as commander-in-chief.

Fourth, a battalion of crossbow infantry was formed, named "Lin Zi Battalion", with 500 soldiers, mainly soldiers from Orion. Yang Chengying personally served as the commander, and the weekday training was handed over to Han Yunchao.

Because, Yang Chengying plans to change this bow and crossbow battalion into a firearms battalion in the future.

If you were to ask him why he didn't go directly to the firearms battalion.

He must have scolded and said, "If Lao Tzu has the ability to get a bird's gun, I will have a shot in my hand, and I will come to shoot when I see someone, wouldn't it be even more painful!" ”

The problem is, he can't get it.

The reason is also very simple, the imperial court is very strict in this regard. And Yang Chengying has no talent in this area, so he can only choose a compromise plan helplessly.

"Thorn!"

"Kill ......!"

"Close!"

"Roar ......!"

On the school grounds, the soldiers of the Water Battalion and the Fire Battalion were using wooden sticks as weapons to practice the most basic assassination training.

At the instructor's command, they stabbed the long stick forward with all their might, and at the same time let out a neat shout.

Then, make a gesture to collect the gun and shout again.

Yang Chengying sat on horseback and looked at them quietly.

As an elite spearman, strength is essential, especially strong arm strength. Imagine facing the charge of heavy cavalry, if the spearman does not have enough arm strength, let alone blocking, it would be good not to be knocked away.

Therefore, when selecting pikemen, the most powerful ones were given priority. In addition to ensuring that the soldiers are well fed, the only way to do this is to strengthen their strength.

Yang Chengying set up a horizontal bar for "pull-ups" in the spearman camp, and asked the soldiers to exercise pull-ups every day. In order to convince them, he made fifty of them himself.

A reward mechanism was also set up for this, with 12 eating meat, 26 adding wowo heads, and 36 rewarding silver coins at one time.

Looking at the strength of their stabs, Yang Chengying nodded with a little satisfaction.

"Your Excellency, you don't seem to be happy with them?"

I can always see the sound outside the strings, and asked curiously.

"Maybe I've been in a team that is 100 times more elite than this, so I have too much vision."

Yang Chengying thought for a moment and replied.

Ning Wan was stunned, "My lord has been in an even more elite team than this!" ”

"yes." Yang Chengying sighed, "It has something that this world does not have, this thing can make it burst out with amazing combat effectiveness and endurance to withstand losses, it is like the sun in the sky, releasing attractive light and heat." ”

"Which troop the hell?" Ning Wan I couldn't wait to ask.

Yang Chengying replied perfunctorily: "Qi Jiajun." ”

Ning Wan I was completely stunned, the Qi family army was gone as early as the twenty-third year of Wanli, and Yang Chengying was not born at that time, right?
