"Not only that, but this formation must also be re-strengthened, and this crossbow and musket must be added." Jiang Ning said, he was the captain, asked the nine company commanders to cooperate with him, asked someone to get a weapon, walked to the courtyard, and began to explain.

At the front of the formation is the captain, and the second two hold a long shield and a rattan card. The long shield hand holds a long shield to block arrows and spears, and the rattan hand holds a light rattan shield with a javelin and waist knife, and the long shield hand and rattan player mainly cover the rear team to advance, and the rattan player can also fight with the enemy in close combat in addition to covering.

Then two people are pikemen, choose the old and solid bamboo, cut the end of the bamboo obliquely into a pointed shape and install the spear head blade, leave sharp branches around it, each bamboo is about one zhang five long, and the sought-after hand uses the sharp blade at the front end to assassinate the enemy to cover the advance of the shield hand and the attack of the spearman behind, equipped with a Pu knife, after giving up the spear, use the Pu knife to fight.

Then there were three archers armed with repeaters, one on the left and one on the left and one in front of them, and one for the shield-bearers and pikemen on the left and right sides of the front, equipped with swords, and each archer carried three arrow boxes, plus the crossbow arrows, a total of one hundred arrows.

The last two are musketeers, and the captain is both armed with muskets, one in front of the other for long-distance sniping, after the enemy approaches, enter the formation, shoot, each with three magazines, a total of 30 rounds, the main target is the enemy generals and cavalry, to buy more time for the archers.

If the enemy attacks in a roundabout way, the musketeer rushes forward with a short knife to slash the enemy, and the division of labor is clear among various weapons, as long as each person is proficient in his own kind of operation, the key to effective killing of the enemy is the overall cooperation, and the order is prohibited.

Jiang Ning walked out of the formation, and combined the musket queen, pikemen and crossbowmen, plus a shield soldier to guard, and turned it into a four-person formation, one large formation can be turned into two small formations, and the remaining two people are temporarily combined according to the situation on the scene to form a third four-person formation.

"This is the new Mandarin Duck Formation and the Four Talent Formation." Jiang Ning then began a simulation drill and asked the three-person team to attack the Mandarin Duck Formation.

Half an hour later, this mandarin duck array was broken, and then it turned into a four-talent array, although the other two were captured, but the power of the four-talent array was more solid than the three-person formation, and Jiang Ning called a stop.

This change in formation was extremely shocking to the second Qianxun and Yu Zhongting, the formation that had just been formed was already able to exert such great power, and if it was trained for a long time, it would definitely be able to exert a stronger combat power than it was now.

Huo Wenxing, Hu Zhengwen, and Ren Yuanliang's views on this formation can only be described as strong, they fought on the frontier, experienced life and death, and understood very well that the help that this formation change brought to the team was not only tactical, but could minimize casualties.

"Childe, such a good thing, why don't you tell the right minister?" The second Qianxun watched everyone rush into the martial arts arena to study with great interest, but showed some doubts.

Jiang Ning said: "This method of warfare is based on absolute loyalty, and it should be gradually popularized, and each general has his own views and ideas. ”

"This frequent adjustment has largely solved the situation of rebellion and self-respect of the army, which also ensures that there has been no rebellion by generals or border troops in the past 100 years, but at the same time, an extremely serious problem has also arisen."

"That's trust." Jiang Ning continued: "The soldiers don't know the generals and the generals, they don't have enough trust, after the military order is issued, it has been discounted, and the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, what happens, one thing is self-preservation, so it will fail, and the battle of Blackwater ten years ago is the best example." ”

The second thousand exuns suddenly opened: "So, what Gongzi means is that as long as the imperial court does not change this policy, then if we say it, the imperial court will find a way to get rid of us, because we are an outlier and a variable for the imperial court." ”

Jiang Ning smiled and nodded: "Yes, do you think that with my ability, there is a way to change this?" ”

The second thousand sighed: "Even if it is the right minister, there is nothing that can be done, those officials of the Imperial History Observatory will bring out the legal system and policies of the ancestors at every turn, and the saint has no choice." ”

"Yes, many times, it doesn't mean that you can do whatever you want, you can do anything, you can do anything, there are too many constraints, the tail is too big, the current imperial court, there are too many concerns, and interests are intertwined for a hundred years, which is no longer the simple purpose at the beginning of the establishment." Jiang Ning added.

The second Chihiro arched his hand, but also sighed: "Chihiro has been taught, Childe is far-sighted, Chihiro is far from comparable." ”

"You are excellent in martial arts, I can't match it, haha......" Jiang Ning laughed.

For more than half a month, Jiang Ning lived here, gradually perfected all the training facilities, and guided the training, and even got up early every day to insist on training and practicing, eating and practicing with these people, cheering and doing homely things, training and explaining tactics, and promptly exploring and discussing according to the problems that arose in the actual course of exercise, and actively adopting some good opinions and suggestions.

In the blink of an eye, it was already late autumn, and by the end of November, for most of the month, Jiangning's systematic training obviously felt much better than the previous morning exercises, and under his leadership, the formation and training intensity were gradually on the right track.

The prototype of the new Mandarin Duck Formation, but Jiang Ning was improved according to Qi Jiguang's formation, on the premise of ensuring the power of the original formation, the assault rifle and bow crossbow were introduced into it, but unfortunately the number of assault guns and the number of bows and crossbows is far from enough, at least three hundred assault guns and three hundred crossbows are needed, in addition to training, to ensure that there must be enough backup when really used.

"Son, my sister-in-law has arrived at the boundary of Xinyang Mansion, if it is normal, you can reach Luoyang in about seven days." The second thousand walked to the martial arts arena and said beside Jiang Ning.

"Seven days, it's almost a small year." Jiang Ning looked at the surrounding scene, except for the green pines and cypresses, the rest of the maple trees had all fallen, and only bare branches remained.

"We should also go back, when the time comes, I will send someone directly to Ying Tianfu, you and Zhang Zihan did a good job of docking a year ago, and you must open a year ago, how about the things you prepared before?" Jiang Ning turned to the atrium road.

Yu Atrium replied: "It's ready, more than 100 copper pots, as well as the ingredients listed on your list, my lord, the place has been found, there are still a lot of relationships, and the location is also excellent, as soon as Zihan arrives, it can be opened." ”

"Okay, when the time comes, I will let her bring some more silver taels, you don't have to worry about the start-up funds, just teach Zihan everything, in addition, I will also let Zihan bring the blacksmith and the bow and crossbow master over, they are our treasures, we must protect them, so that those who have a foundation are also involved, only by making their own hands, they will be more handy to use, and if there is a problem, it can be solved as soon as possible, these are all life-saving guys when they are really used." Jiang Ning nodded.

"Childe, don't worry, the smelting workshop and the carpenter's shop have almost been alive in the past two days, Childe, take a look." Yu Zhongting said with a smile.

"During the Chinese New Year, you can take a proper rest, if you can't go home, you must send it to the place, and I don't think I need to emphasize it anymore when it comes to gambling......"

Yu Zhongting smiled awkwardly: "Childe, don't make fun of me, how dare you......"

The second thousand looked at Yu Zhongyuan: "If you don't dare, the Anding Gang has handed over all the gambling houses, which of you dare to offend, just ask me about the sword in my hand." ”
