"Commander Pang, stop fighting, stop fighting, I really can't do it anymore." One of the guards cried and shouted.
"Trash, keep jumping, or I'll break your legs." Pang Man raised his whip and yelled viciously.
"I'm jumping, I'm jumping." The man cried and shook his long nose and jumped up and down to keep up with the leapfrog team.
Early this morning, there were screams in the imperial guard camp. Pang Man, Sihu and others directed the guards in the entire camp to jump frog on the training ground. Zhu Muchen had ordered that they must jump ten times every day.
Most people's legs were extremely sore. When they started dancing four times, many people stopped and were beaten to pieces by Pang Man and others. Now everyone is frightened and no one dares.
They were afraid of being whipped when they stopped, and everyone was jumping around with expressions of unspeakable pain.
Pang Man held the whip and lightly slapped his palms and said: "Hold on, there is still one last lap."
"Last lap? Hurry, jump quickly." A group of people wearing masks of pain suddenly became alive again, and they all jumped forward with all their strength.
"Oh~ I'm exhausted. It's over." After the ten frog jumps, everyone sat down on the ground and gasped. Everyone's legs felt a severe soreness.
"Give them water and a break to burn incense." Zhu Muchen said to Pang Man.
Pang Man ordered his men to bring in the four water storage trucks that had been prepared and shouted: "Come here and line up to get a bowl of water."
"Gulu~Gulu~", everyone held the bowl and drank big gulps of water. They all felt that the water today was very delicious. Many people drank several large bowls.
Pang Man lit a stick of incense and shouted: "Stand in order and rest for a while. We will start the next training later."
"Next training?"
"More? Isn't it?"
"What kind of training is next?" The guards on the training ground started talking one after another. The frog leap just now had already exhausted everyone. Everyone thought it was over, but there was still something on everyone's face.
The mask of pain was hung up again.
"I quit." A man said, throwing the water bowl in his hand to the ground.
"Don't do it, this is simply taking human life lightly."
"I won't do it either."
"I quit." Many people responded and prepared to turn around and leave.
Zhu Muchen opened the banana peel and took a bite. He raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Whoever disobeys will be hanged. No food will be given today. If he does it again, he will be killed without mercy."
The lively training ground suddenly became quiet. No one dared to say anything for a while. The few people who were excited and ready to leave also fell silent when they heard the words. The atmosphere on the scene became a little strange. The few guards who had just made trouble
They were hung up in front of everyone, but none of them cried out for injustice. Several of them remained silent, for fear that they would say something wrong and lose their heads.
Pang Man showed everyone the push-ups, and no one dared to pause in the rest of the training, and no complaints were heard until the sit-ups were finally completed.
Day after day, after two months of high-intensity training, every morning training has become a daily routine. Zhu Muchen selected a thousand outstanding guards and set up a military camp dedicated to the use of firecrackers. Aji was responsible for
To train them in shooting, Pang Man, Sihu and others were responsible for teaching them martial arts. After two months of devil training, this new battalion had already developed certain combat capabilities.
"Let's get started," Zhu Muchen said while sitting on a wooden chair with his legs crossed. The newly formed military camp has been training for two months. Today he is here to see how the shooting level of this new camp is.
Aji raised a small flag and shouted: "Get ready."
More than a dozen people moved neatly and quickly filled their ammunition, then took aim and took aim, waiting for orders.
Aji waved the small flag he held high and shouted: "Shoot."
More than ten people pulled the trigger at the same time, "Boom~Boom~Boom~Boom~Boom~Boom~" There was a burst of gunfire, a trace of smoke rising from the barrel, and a smell of gunpowder in the air. Aji
The dozen or so targets for shooting were brought up in front of Zhu Muchen, and everyone accurately hit the target.
Zhu Muchen looked at the target in front of him, nodded with satisfaction and said: "Not bad, not bad, well done Aji."
When Aji heard this, he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, young prince, for the compliment."
Zhu Muchen took out a picture from his pocket and handed it to Aji and said: "It's no use just learning how to shoot. I'll start practicing formations tomorrow."
"Formation?" Aji muttered as he took the drawing. Pang Man and the Four Tigers also came over curiously and looked at the formation drawing drawn by Zhu Muchen seriously.
Zhu Muchen put one hand on his waist, touched his nose and said: "This is a three-stage attack method. Three people form a shooting team to coordinate the operation. The first person in the front row is responsible for aiming and shooting, and the second person is responsible for passing the gun.
The third person is responsible for loading ammunition. The first person must have excellent shooting skills and good psychological quality. The first position is very important and must be carefully screened. The second person plays a central and coordinating role, mainly for the first person.
The third person must pass on and replace the gun, and if necessary, fire at the same time as the first person to strengthen the fire network. The third person must be proficient in loading ammunition and move quickly and quickly to ensure the duration of the fire network."
Pang Man thought for a moment and interrupted Zhu Muchen's words: "This formation is indeed good. Once a large-scale cavalry rushes into the formation, once it is broken through, there will be no counterattack." He is a person who has been on the battlefield and has very special skills.
Rich practical experience.
Zhu Muchen smiled and said: "Uncle Pang Man, please listen to me." Then he took the drawing in Aji's hand and placed it on the ground, then sat on the ground. Pang Man, Aji and others also sat around.
Beside Zhu Muchen.
Zhu Muchen pointed to the drawing and said: "This shooting team not only has fire gunmen, but also needs to be protected by three shield men in front of the three fire gunmen, four people who carry and manage gunpowder, ten long sword guards, five on the left
, five on the right, five pikemen in the rear, and a thousand archers in the rear. Each archer must be equipped with a repeating crossbow, and when necessary, cover the transfer or retreat of the musketeers."
Zhu Muchen looked at Pang Man and said: "If there is a cavalry invasion, the shield bearer will greet the horse, five spearmen from behind will stab, and the long sword guards on the left and right will be responsible for killing. Besides, as long as a strong firepower network is ensured, there cannot be too many
The cavalry can break into the position, and if there is an emergency, there are still a thousand crossbowmen to cover the rear, and the gunnery team can move and adjust or retreat in time."
Hearing this, Pang Man stroked his beard and laughed and said, "Okay, hahaha, these three stages of fighting by the young prince are very wonderful."
Zhu Muchen knew that the ancient armies generally did not attach much importance to firearms. Even though firearms were mature enough during the Tang and Song Dynasties, the army at that time still did not use firearms. Compared with the West, the ancient firearms of Big Rabbit Country actually used more firearms.
Early, but the emphasis on firearms is far less than that of Western countries.
This situation is mainly due to the ancient traditional hobby of cold weapons. Since the Qin Dynasty, the traditional army in ancient times mainly relied on iron horses and gold weapons. The real use of firearms on the battlefield was during the Ming Dynasty, that is, at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty.
The Shenji Camp was established, but Zhu Muchen inquired many times and no one knew the existence of the so-called Shenji Camp. He only knew that the Shenji Camp was established during Zhu Di's period, and he didn't know exactly when.
Zhu Muchen has learned from books before that the Shenji Battalion, as Big Rabbit's ancient specialized firearms unit, was far earlier than the Western firearms units. Moreover, the internal configuration of the Shenji Battalion in the Ming Dynasty changed from the chaos of the previous generation, and the internal organization was very
Reasonable and quite stable, Zhu Di's five military conquests against Mongolia all included the presence of the Shenji Battalion. When facing the Mongolian cavalry that came and went like the wind, it was like a stroke of genius. The Mongolian cavalry was defeated by the Shenji Battalion every time.
They were caught off guard. Besides, the Qi Family Army formed by Qi Jiguang used the Mandarin Duck Formation, which used fire blunderbuss as one of the important weapons, forming a small team with strong attack power from both near and far.
