Li Dingguo used to follow the bandits, but later he witnessed the grassland warfare around Hong Chengchou. The characteristics of these wars are very mobile and the performance of the cavalry is very important, which is indeed different from the teachings of the Primary Martial Preparation Hall of the Capital.

Of course, Daming is rich and vast, with various terrains, such as plains in the north, jungles in the south, mountains in the west, water towns in the east, etc. It can be said that the combat methods and methods of each terrain are different.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen's plan was to select a few places after the model of the primary martial arts hall in the capital matured, and to establish other primary martial arts halls according to regional characteristics, specifically to teach the unique combat methods and methods of various places.

Of course, some of the regional combat characteristics he knew were mainly learned through the sources of film and television networks in later generations, such as film and television networks. He would write them for reference for these martial arts halls, but more importantly, local troops who are familiar with the local combat mode to summarize.

After the primary martial arts halls are too many and mature, Emperor Chongzhen will establish an intermediate martial arts hall. The focus of this intermediate martial arts hall is the region, which is to teach combat between two or more terrains. After all, the terrain of some places is complex, not just one type. Students will select from the primary martial arts hall. Only those with excellent grades or outstanding military achievements in the army will be qualified to learn further.

After all these are mature, a high-level martial arts hall will be established in the capital. Emperor Chongzhen had talked with Zu Dashou at the beginning, but in the future, the principal of the high-level martial arts hall will be personally served by Emperor Chongzhen himself. It is equivalent to a Jinshi among scholars. They will have to undergo palace examinations and are known as the disciple of the emperor.

At this time, after hearing Li Dingguo's words, Emperor Chongzhen encouraged him a few words, and said to Mao Yuanyi: "Bi Qing, the Director of the Military Weapons Bureau, will bring good things to him. It is an improved model of the flintlock rifle, and it will take some time to delay. Please tell me about the training of the flintlock rifle team first!"

Mao Yuanyi and Zu Dashou, who was accompanying him, were shocked when they heard this. What is the improved model of the flintlock rifle? Could it be that a more powerful musket was invented?

Thinking of this, they were a little curious about what kind of flintlock rifle the Director of the Military Weapons Bureau would bring. Mao Yuanyi pressed his curiosity and took a flintlock rifle from his personal guards, demonstrating while reporting to Emperor Chongzhen for his training.

In fact, Emperor Chongzhen reviewed the standard training process of flintlock rifle and even put forward some improvement suggestions to ensure that this standard process can be guaranteed to be the optimal process for flintlock rifle use, including fixed loading of paper shells, three-stage shooting, etc. As for the ratio of gunpowder and pelletization, at this time, it was actually mastered by the Military Weapon Bureau to strictly match the optimal effect. In the past, the quality control was not strict, but now this will be checked by the Military Weapon Bureau and the New Army, and can be directly fed back to the front and ensure quality.

"...Your Majesty, I have conducted tests on this three-stage wheel shooting according to three different modes. Is it better to rotate the flintlock rifle or to rotate the flintlock rifle and soldiers together? Judging from the results of the preliminary test, it is better to achieve the best effect, the latter is better." Mao Yuanyi talked in front of Emperor Chongzhen.

"This is mainly the flintlock rifle of our Ming Dynasty, and each one has a subtle difference. If it is just a flintlock rotation, the amount of gunpowder and the size of lead bullets will have an impact on the final shooting effect. If the flintlock rifle rotates with the soldiers, since the soldiers are familiar with their flintlock rifle, they are the most suitable charge amount and lead bullets in advance, so they can be guaranteed in detail..."

Emperor Chongzhen often said a word in front of his ministers, especially in the New Army, Military Equipment Bureau, and Military War Bureau, that practice is the only criterion for testing the truth. As the general instructor of the New Army, Mao Yuanyi can be said that his contact with Emperor Chongzhen was one of the ministers with a lot of contact, so he naturally followed the sage wishes and did it.

This is not flattery! For those who do practical things, they can naturally understand that this sentence does reveal the true meaning of doing things. With the support of their leaders, they will naturally be willing to practice it.

After saying this, Mao Yuanyi changed the subject: "However, the requirements in "Ji Xiao New Book" are different. Muskets with the same specifications as the same as the muzzle are required in advance to form a team. In this way, the front row is full-time shooting and the back row is full-time loading. Be familiar with the way, and practice makes perfect. In actual combat, it may be better than the current training method!"

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen looked at the three rows of soldiers standing in front of him and asked thoughtfully: "What do you mean is that the flintlock rifle purchased at present is not enough for you to choose a flintlock rifle that meets the requirements. Have you conducted such a training summary based on what is currently available?"

"Your Majesty's clarification!" Mao Yuanyi knew that he didn't have to worry. The emperor was the master of this.

Emperor Chongzhen frowned slightly when he heard the reply. The manufacturing of flintlock rifles took a long time than that of the combs. At present, the Military Weapons Bureau is trying to operate assembled lines, but has not completed the improvement of the entire process, so he cannot provide enough flintlock rifles for Mao Yuanyi to choose.

However, this is not a problem. The new army must formally equipped with flintlock troops, which will be sufficient time after the Gaizhou war is over next year. There is also hand-made construction, and the flintlock guns made between different craftsmen are quite different. In the future, Bi Maokang must try his best to solve the problem.

Mao Yuanyi then continued to explain some of the conclusions he got during training. After saying that, Emperor Chongzhen ordered: "These are precious experiences, you must record them."

"I understand!" Mao Yuanyi himself has written military books, so how could he not carefully record the content he had practiced. But after the emperor gave the explanation, he naturally had to respond immediately.

At this moment, Bi Maokang, the director of the Military Weapons Bureau, rushed over with a servant. Everyone turned to look at him, especially generals such as Mao Yuanyi and Zu Dashou, whose eyes were even brighter, as if they were about to see the flowers from Bi Maokang.

The servant following Bi Maokang was holding a long wooden box in his hand. Judging from the appearance, there should be a flintlock rifle inside. It was just covered with the box, and I don’t know what it looked like. What is the power of the improved model?

As for Emperor Chongzhen, he naturally knew what Bi Maokang brought. After Bi Maokang finished the ceremony, he ordered Zu Dashou behind him to say, "Take the clamps and spearmen selected by you and compete with Mao Qing's flintlock spearmen!"

If possible, Zu Dashou really didn't want to do this. Isn't it obvious that he would serve as a foil for Mao Yuanyi? However, the emperor ordered that he had no choice but to turn around and order a general behind him to go.

Thanks to Northern Industrial Company for the reward!
