But Li Susu was a little surprised. Yingying walked towards Shen Lie, looked at the disbanded military formation and asked curiously: "Brother Shen... why did you arrange the mandarin duck formation?"
Shen Lie was slightly stunned and praised: "Good eyesight."
Did you recognize all of this?
Looking at the curious look on her pretty face, Shen Lie smiled slightly and said, "This is a long time to say..."
Of course I can arrange the Yuanyang Formation, and it is the authentic Yuanyang Formation.
Seeing him playing tricks, Li Susu's pretty face turned slightly red, she laughed again, and even gave him a charming eye roll.
"Ah."
Seeing her unintentionally revealing girlish naivety, Shen Lie couldn't help but feel a surge in his heart, and quickly looked away, pretending to be a gentleman.
"oh."
Li Susu pursed her lips and responded, but then she remembered...
Then he smiled.
not far away.
Including Dao Shisan, several of the heroes who had not yet left shivered, and their expressions became a bit scary and a bit resentful...
"Mandarin duck formation!"
Hear this.
Dao Shisan was so shocked that he staggered and almost fell over. His face with a faint scar began to twitch, and he cursed in his heart.
"Traitor!"
be cheated.
Jianghu people who like to go high and low and fight alone are like meeting their nemesis when they encounter the Yuanyang Formation. They really can't even muster the strength to resist.
But Dao Shisan was equally surprised. He turned around secretly and took a look. He wanted to know what the relationship between these Dongchang fans, Marshal Qi, and the Zhejiang soldiers was.
But Shen Lie didn't care, he was still thinking happily, this Datong Mansion, and the Xuan Mansion further north, were called Xuanda in terms of the administrative divisions of the Ming Dynasty.
It is one of the nine sides of the Ming Dynasty.
There is a governor.
According to later generations, this is the frontline military area. It has been the best place for soldiers since ancient times. The martial arts prevailed here, and it was also because of the conflict with the Tatars for nearly two hundred years.
Therefore.
There are a large number of experienced combatants in the Xuanfu area, and there are many brave and ruthless people. Even if you catch an old farmer from the field, he will be able to do it several times.
As he spoke, Shen Lie narrowed his eyes and muttered silently in his heart: "If we can build a team here..."
That fighting power must be very fierce.
But why is this land of Xuanfu with strong folk customs still in disarray, with Tatars coming and going freely, riding on their necks, humiliating and bullying them?
Shen Lie smiled coldly, "We have to ask the big businessmen in the court, as well as the bachelors in the cabinet. The court of Ming Dynasty, and the bachelors of Ming Dynasty don't help the people of Ming Dynasty."
The big businessmen were busy doing business with the Tatars to make money. The imperial court not only appointed the Tatar leader as the King of Shunyi, but also made the Tatar the deputy commander-in-chief.
What can the people do?
There was a fire in the hearts of the people.
Over time, people's hearts have become cold and indifferent.
Sunset in the west.
In a humble room.
Shen Lie sat upright at the table, put Qi Jiguang's "Military Training Records" aside, picked up the wolf hair, and thought about what he was writing.
After reading a lot of the military books he obtained from Qi Shuai, he also practiced the Mandarin Duck Formation. However, Shen Lie also discovered many problems. This Mandarin Duck Formation...
It is indeed miraculous when used to quell Japanese pirates.
This thing is similar to the formation of special police in later generations. It is specially used for small-scale security warfare. It is a battle formation tailor-made for Japanese pirates. Shred is not suitable for large-scale operations in northern Saibei.
What's the difference?
According to Shen Lie's practice, the difference between the Yuanyang formation and the long-range firepower is that there are too few musketeers in the back row.
Of course, Qi Shuai had already thought of this matter. The solution given by Qi Shuai in his military book was to coordinate vehicle formations, infantry, artillery, and cavalry. He tried his best to transform the Zhejiang army.
The Zhejiang Army must be transformed into a field mobile force composed of infantry, cavalry, artillery, and vehicles, and the Zhejiang Army must be transformed into a fire-breathing hedgehog.
And the cavalry were equipped with a large number of three-eyed muskets to deal with the Tatar cavalry that came and went like the wind. This approach was naturally correct.
If we follow Marshal Qi's path, the Ming Dynasty will have a powerful imperial field firearms regiment at least a hundred years ahead of Westerners.
"only……"
Thinking of Zhang Juzheng who was seriously ill and bedridden, and Qi Jiguang who was about to be liquidated, Shen Lie sighed quietly.
Pity.
Even if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them.
The Ming Dynasty did not allow such a powerful field corps to exist.
"This society is actually very simple. What is complicated is the people."
As Shen Lie's eyes became dim, he thought of the Japanese pirates. The Japanese pirates suffered heavy losses at the hands of the Zhejiang Army in the past few years, and they also retreated to those small islands to reflect on their tactics.
The Japanese pirates were also working hard to improve their equipment and tactics.
These days...
The Japanese pirates should start equipping muskets on a large scale.
Thinking.
Feeling sleepy, he blew out the candles and walked to the bed with somewhat heavy steps. In the middle of the night, when there was no one around, Shen Lie missed his beloved wife and concubine at home.
A few days later.
In the hustle and bustle.
The gates of the Hundred Household House in Dongchang were closed, and more than a hundred strong men reluctantly put on Dongchang's brown clothes and pointed hats, and stood loosely in two rows in the yard.
Look at the expression.
These Xuanda disciples who were captured as young men were very reluctant. They all stood with their heads lowered and weakly. Naturally, the two rows were also crooked.
But Shen Lie didn't care, he still looked at the roster excitedly, smiling from ear to ear. In any case, his establishment of a hundred households was completed.
Although the twisted melon is not sweet, it can quench your thirst.
"cough."
A slight cough.
Shen Lie stuffed the roster into his arms and said with a smile on his face: "I have a few words... After entering this door, we will be brothers eating from the same pot from now on!"
"As long as I, Shen, stutter, I won't treat you all badly. Please rest assured... Our club... organization will make a name for itself in the Xuanda area in the future."
After a lot of great talk, the core idea is just one sentence. Follow me, Shen, and the days of drinking and eating meat are behind you!
Shen Lie's mouth went dry as he spoke, and he kept encouraging, and finally got the feeble agreement from the disciples of Xuanda University: "Yes."
"Please follow your instructions."
This picture.
Li Susu, who was hiding in the room and peeking, couldn't help but laugh again, and felt a little worried in her heart. Such a grassroots team, soldiers captured from the street.
Is this reliable?
I'm afraid that as soon as we go into battle, we will encounter a slightly more powerful grass bandit and they will disperse in a hurry.
When Shen Lie wanted to say a few more words to cheer up his team, he suddenly became alarmed and turned around sharply.
Then he saw a column of smoke rising in the distance outside the city.
Then the whole yamen fell silent.
Shen Lie looked at the thick smoke column soaring up with some surprise. It was very far away, but it never dispersed. He was confused for a moment.
Soon Shen Lie's expression changed slightly, and he realized that the smoke column was unusual and contained some kind of message. This was...
Wolf smoke!
As Shen Lie felt awe-inspiring in his heart, the large courtyard of the Dongchang Hundred Household House suddenly became silent, and soon became noisy again.
