Seeing the scene in front of them, everyone couldn't help but be amazed! They really didn't expect these cavalrymen to have this kind of horsemanship! You must know that the Ming Dynasty has never been dominated by cavalry! The real master of horsemanship has to count the tartars outside the plug!

After these Ms. Yang calmed down, everyone turned their eyes to the main entrance again! At this time, Emperor Wanli slapped his thigh and said: "Just look at those nights, I haven't seen when these soldiers came in!" ”

Everyone was attracted by Emperor Wanli's shout to look down, only to see that a phalanx below had been assembled, and it was slowly squirming into a phalanx! And there are several other phalanxes in the process of being assembled! At the same time, there was still a large number of soldiers pouring in at the camp gate!

Most of the people on the stage were not skilled in martial arts, so they didn't have any specific feelings other than thinking that these soldiers were gathering very quickly! But the faces of those who really knew about martial arts had changed! Especially Qi Jiguang had actually stood up straight with his body that had been arched, and looked down with his eyes narrowed! At the same time, the thumb of the right hand keeps pinching back and forth on the other four fingers!

When the first phalanx stopped wriggling and was completely formed, he also stopped counting in his hands, but his face was a little ugly! Emperor Wanli, who was sitting beside him, naturally saw this scene, and after he stopped the timer, he said, "Qi Qing's family, how are these soldiers and horses in front of you?" ”

Qi Jiguang originally wanted to directly say "the world is a strong army", but he swallowed this sentence when he thought of his benefactor's instructions! But he also knew that he was not the only one present who knew martial arts! If he belittles him too much, he can't hide it from Emperor Wanli!

So he hesitated a little and said, "Your Majesty, these soldiers and horses can already be called a strong army!" From the moment they entered the gate, the ministers had been counting the time, and from the appearance of a phalanx to the time they were completely grounded, it was only ninety-seven breaths! There are very few armies that can do this! ”

When Emperor Wanli heard this, he immediately laughed proudly! However, he immediately asked, "So how does this army compare to Aiqing's Qi family army?" ”

Qi Jiguang heard that Emperor Wanli had changed his address to Aiqing, and he couldn't help frowning! Naturally, he knew that what he said made Emperor Wanli happy! But he didn't want the Qi family army that he had trained to be misunderstood, so he chose the words and said: "Your Majesty, there is no difference between the two sides in terms of gathering and lining up alone!" In such a short period of time, the army under the command of the minister can also do it! ”

Emperor Wanli slapped his face and laughed when he heard this, and said, "I know that Liu Aiqing will not deceive me!" The soldiers and horses he trained must be the strongest army in the world! ”

Qi Jiguang immediately understood when he heard this, thinking that Emperor Wanli had also heard of the name of the Qi family army in the palace, and knew that the Qi family army was now the strongest army in the world! And he didn't have much impression of the new army before, so he compared the Qi family's army! Especially Qi Jiguang personally admitted that the speed of the assembly of the two sides was about the same, so he naturally thought that the new army in front of him was the same as the Qi family's army, which was the elite of the elite!

However, what Emperor Wanli didn't know was that Qi Jiguang was actually a little weak in his heart! Because he knew that although the speed of his soldiers' assembly was similar to that of the new army in front of him, it was the speed at which they were assembling from the barracks to the school grounds, not turning into a phalanx during the march! If this is the case, the speed of the assembly will definitely not be as fast as the new army in front of you!

As he spoke, the footsteps on the school field had gradually stopped! Everyone looked at the school field again, and saw that the infantry on the school field had formed eight phalanxes, and the soldiers in four of them were carrying fire guns! The other four phalanxes are pikemen and sword and shield soldiers!

It's just that what makes everyone pay attention is that the spears of the pikemen are much longer than the standard spears of the Ming army! A large number of spears were erected there, like a grove!

Just then, another group of people poured in from outside the gate! But this group of people is much slower! Because this batch of people coming in is all artillery! The soldiers are shouting trumpets to push the artillery!

Qi Jiguang was surprised when he saw the artillery and said: "What kind of artillery is this artillery?" How is it different from what is used in the military? ”

Liu Haojia said with a smile: "So that Lord Qi can know that this kind of artillery was developed by the officials for a long time!" The power is comparable to the original artillery, but it is much easier to transport! ”

Emperor Wanli took a closer look and found that the artillery that advanced into the camp was indeed different from the artillery in his impression! The gun is still a long tube, but there are two huge wheels on the sides and a long tail behind it!

So he said directly: "I know! This big wheel is easier to pull than a small one, isn't it? ”

Liu Haojia was stuck in his throat when he heard this, and he almost couldn't stand steadily! At this time, he really wanted to talk to Emperor Wanli about the basic knowledge of physics, but he couldn't do it at this time, so he could only bow down and say: "Your Majesty sees thousands of miles!" ”

And Qi Jiguang was already stunned when he saw the artillery that was easily moved by four people! Because the Qi family army also uses firearms a lot, he naturally knows the power of artillery! But at this time, the artillery of the Ming army was too cumbersome, it was very difficult to transport, and it was also very difficult to use!

The current Ming artillery is like this, a thick barrel is unchanged, but it must be placed in a gun box made of wood and iron! The size of the gun box should be to wrap the rear half of the gun completely. On each side of the gun case there was a pair of very small wheels!

It would be nice to say that this kind of artillery could be pushed in a straight line on flat ground. However, the ground is a little uneven, and the bottom of the gun box is easy to get stuck on the ground! Especially since the four wheels are fixed, so it can't be turned! When you have to turn a corner, it's all about life!

This disadvantage is especially pronounced when transporting artillery up the mountain! Every time the artillery was transported on a rugged and winding mountain road, it was a great ordeal!

And even more unfortunate is that the artillery of this construction is also very inconvenient to use! Because every time you set up an artillery position, you have to dig a pit in the ground to fix the gun box before you can shoot normally! This is to prevent the displacement of the gun due to recoil! However, this makes the angle of fire of the artillery very narrow, which is not conducive to combat!

And now this artillery is different! There are only two huge wheels on both sides, and at the same time the gun box is reduced to a minimum, and the space of the gun from the ground is extremely large! No matter how uneven the road is, it will not be scraped to the bottom of the artillery! And with only two wheels, it's very easy to steer after the rear, just push it gently!
