Chapter 317

"Dong Dong Dong Dong... "

On the Qingzhou school field, five hundred vanguard Battalion soldiers are marching forward in a column. The soldiers hold their flint guns on their shoulders and step by step to their destination with drums.

Zhu Siwu, standing on one side of the column, marched with the vanguard battalion on the same drum.

Three days ago, after the vanguard camp was equipped with flint guns, this kind of training began. At the beginning of the March, the officers carried slogans, but two days later, two drums were sent to the barracks.

Niu Zhen randomly ordered two soldiers from the vanguard camp to play drums.

"Because it is a line battle, it will be difficult for the army to" march in unison "without a unified voice in future wars, and the role of drums will be reflected in time."

When Zhu Wu and Liu asked why, Niu Zhen answered him in this way. It is said that his highness said this at the Army Academy of Bowen college, and the drum was also required by his highness.

Just thinking about it, he suddenly saw that the line was crooked. He immediately picked up the stick and went over to the three soldiers who were crooked. One of them was a stick.

After being severely whipped on the buttocks, the three soldiers showed their teeth in pain and immediately readjusted their pace to join the queue.

Turning back, Zhu Siwu once again closely watched the soldiers' line.

Although he did not understand the purpose of such a slow and rhythmic March, he believed that his highness was right in all his decisions.

His only expectation is when it will be their turn to study in Bowen college.

While he is thinking about it, Niu Zhen, Luo Xin, Lu Fei, Xian Guangyi, di Ying, Bai Mu, Zhao Gong and others are accepting a new war teaching in the school of Bowen.

After Niu Zhen took over the Qingzhou army, he quickly promoted several excellent school captains from the Guogan school captains of Qingzhou middle school, and selected some Guogan school captains from the excellent centurions.

After all, the current Qingzhou army has expanded to 20000 people, not thousands of people in the Lufei era. Without enough generals, it is impossible to effectively command soldiers in the war.

Xiao Ming reviewed all the people who Niu Zhen promoted, and he was very satisfied with Niu's choice.

Because this list coincides with what he thinks, Niu Zhen has no selfishness.

"What is this, your highness?"

At this time, a huge sand table of six meters in length and width was placed in the Army school. The content of the sand table was the terrain from Bingzhou, Jizhou and Cangzhou to the land occupied by the barbarians.

And the terrain was marked with the number of barbarian troops he could detect in front of him.

In the first two days of teaching, Xiao Ming mainly reduced some basic training knowledge of the firearm team, and let Niu Zhen go back to implement it.

On the battlefield, the array of muskets is the most important. After all, the flint gun does not rely on accuracy, but on the density and duration of bullets on one side.

"It's called sand table. It's used for campaign deduction. You have some wood carvings on hand. These wood carvings represent Qingzhou army and barbarians.

Niu Zhen picked up a wood carving, which was the image of a soldier carrying a flint gun, only the size of a finger.

"This is artillery." With great interest, Luo Xin picked up an artillery woodcarving to play with.

Lu Fei is not idle, he picked up two cavalry wood carvings to a collision, the two cavalry modeling are barbarian cavalry and Qingzhou cavalry.

Niu Zhen glanced at the sand table, then looked at the wood carvings, and soon understood the usage of these wood carvings.

He picked up a woodcarving of artillery and placed it in Cangzhou City. He also took the woodcarving of barbarian cavalry and placed it in the Chagatai silver account of blood wolf tribe.

The other captains suddenly looked excited.

It has to be said that Niu Zhen is a born general, and he understands the military reform very quickly. Xiao Ming said, "you can see the demonstration of Niu Dudu. This sand table is just a more specific map. Today, we will deduce how to drive the barbarians out of Youzhou."

"At the same time, on the sand table, Wang will demonstrate a kind of firearm array to deal with cavalry. You should firmly remember that you should go back and focus on training soldiers how to quickly form this kind of hollow square array."

After hearing this, the crowd nodded, and Niu Zhen said: "Your Highness, if you want to defeat the barbarians in Youzhou, you can't do without the cavalry. Thunder has gained a lot in the battlefield during this period. Now the number of guanning's cavalry has risen to 6000. It seems that although the range and power of the musketeers are enough to fight with the barbarians outside Cangzhou, it's still very difficult to have no cavalry If it's hard to chase the scattered barbarian cavalry, Mo Jiang suggests that leiming take guanning cavalry and Qingzhou cavalry to practice together. After all, if it's wartime, the scattered guanning cavalry will suffer. "

"What Niu Dudu said is reasonable. Now not only the Musketeers need to be trained, but the cavalry also need to be trained strictly. They need to cooperate with each other on the battlefield. To defeat the barbarians, they need to rely on the cavalry to pursue them." Xiao Ming said.

"If so, should cavalry also be equipped with flint guns?" Qi Guangyi asked. He was the cavalry general.

Xiao Ming shook his head. "Yes, you will also be equipped with flint guns, but unlike the Musketeer team, you are equipped with short barrel muskets, because you can't operate long barrel flint guns on the horse, and your plate armor will be eliminated.""Take off the plate armor?" Qi Guangyi was very excited to hear that he could equip with a musket, but Xiao Ming's last sentence surprised him. He argued: "Your Highness, take off the plate armor, how can our cavalry resist the arrows of the barbarians."

Xiao Ming pondered for a moment, said: "the elimination of plate armor is because the flexibility of plate armor on the horse is too low, but the elimination of plate armor does not mean that you do not have armor. In the future, you will be equipped with chest armor, saber and become chest armor cavalry."

Xiao Ming actually has his own ideas for training his cavalry in this aspect.

On the battlefield of the 18th century, the breasted cavalry was very active for a while, and Napoleon's restoration of the breasted cavalry in the 18th century also proved that the breasted cavalry had good defense and higher survival rate on the battlefield.

Facing the arrows of the barbarians, the Armored Cavalry with helmets and breastplates has good defense. At the same time, their flexibility and mobility are greatly improved. They are more than enough to pursue and clean the battlefield.

However, the only drawback is that the short barrel firearm, like the three eye firearm, is only two guns in the battle, which can't be used continuously. But now that we have the energy-saving firearm, we don't have to use it for nothing in regular combat. Maybe we can frighten the barbarian horses.

As for the pulley crossbow, it was originally used by Guan Ning's cavalry to attack in autumn, and there was no need to eliminate it. After all, the sound of the firearm was too loud to be used for furtive work.

To solve this problem, Xiao Ming explained to Qi Guangyi, then Qi Guangyi nodded slowly.

Niu Zhen said with a smile: "Your Highness said that no matter what kind of cavalry, discipline and training are the real weapons. Qi Guangyi, you can't rely too much on weapons."
