Chapter 1263 Touring the Military Regions

From Zeng Yunfeng's return to Shucheng, the entire beggar gang's rebel army seemed to be wound up and started to run crazily.

In the eyes of the surrounding forces and the rebel army, or in the eyes of the Yuan court, the entire rebel army seems to be different. Their actions are permeated with the efficient execution of orders, and their efficiency has suddenly risen to a higher level, like a war machine. start running.

All over the country began to withdraw military rations, all the arsenals were opened, soldiers were trained, food and ammunition were distributed, and the atmosphere of war suddenly increased.

On the other hand, Zeng Yunfeng inspected the rebels in various places one by one, including Chen Youliang's troops.

Zeng Yunfeng was inspecting among Chen Youliang's rebel troops, and the school grounds were in full swing.

"Kill, stab to the right!"

"kill!"

"Stab to the left!"

"kill!"

In comparison, the training intensity of the Beggar Rebel Army is much higher than that of other rebel coalition forces in other regions, and it is basically at least once every two days.Training every three days has tortured some people to death.

However, there is a good saying that you sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime, and the current military structure and war atmosphere doom troops without high-intensity training to war and are prone to collapse.

Now firearms are prevalent in the army, and the practice of firearms is to feed bullets. Practice makes perfect. Many generals wear cotton armor, which is heavy and hot, but they dare not take it off easily.

Most of the ordinary gun-fired firearms can hit about [-] to [-] paces, most of them are spontaneous firearms, and the accuracy is not high, but the names are all awesome.

On the contrary, the amount of artillery equipment and casting technology is gradually improving, and it is also relied on by various units of the rebel army.

"Helmsman! Please look, this is the latest Longmen field gun, which was newly cast by Qianjitang. It has just been equipped with troops, and it has only been trained for more than three months, and it has achieved initial results." Chen Youliang happily introduced it to Zeng Yunfeng.

The changes in the rebel army in the past few years are beyond his imagination.

In the original cold weapon combat, the combat effectiveness of the army has been greatly improved after being equipped with firearms. Similarly, the requirements for soldiers have also been greatly improved correspondingly.

Although the peasant soldiers who could not read a single word were loved by many generals, they also brought some difficulties to the firearms troops.

"Get ready, 100 steps!"

Many gunners raised their guns one after another, aiming forward.

"Let go!" With an order, there was a burst of firecrackers, white smoke rose everywhere, the battlefield was filled with smoke, and the sound of the resounding volley of guns was deafening.

Seeing this scene, Zeng Yunfeng curled his lips inadvertently.

What is the difference between these blunderbuss soldiers and the Boxer Army led by Zeng Yunfeng to attack the Eight-Nation Allied Forces? Many people felt that they were firing blunderbusses into the sky, and they didn't know where the bullets went.

The distance of 1100 steps is like a natural moat for the current firearms, and the accuracy of the firecrackers is too far behind.

"Master, this is the latest firearm. It can penetrate enemy armor within 200 steps, but the accuracy is a bit poor. You have to shoot in a row to get some results. The accuracy will gradually increase after [-] to [-] steps. , to [-] to [-] steps can penetrate the enemy's heavy armor." Zeng Yunfeng nodded, the current development of firearms does have such limitations, even if Qianjitang upgrades firearms again and again, but Nor can it meet Zeng Yunfeng's ideal firearm standard.

The accuracy and range of today's firearms are far from the ideal requirements in Zeng Yunfeng's eyes, and most people still hold matchlock guns.

The so-called Vulcan gun is ignited with a matchlock, which cannot be extinguished, and secondly, it is very affected by the weather. In slightly humid weather, these matchlocks may not be able to light.

As for the flintlock gun, it is currently in the process of being developed, but the corresponding requirements for technology are also higher, and the requirements for craftsmanship have also been raised to a higher level.

It is not possible to prepare a large number of rebel troops in a short period of time.

However, some of those flintlock pistols were developed, and most of them were also equipped with the officers of the rebel army. They were usually used in close combat for self-protection.

Moreover, flintlock pistols usually end after one shot and cannot be fired continuously. However, this is already a very advanced firearm in this era.

Zeng Yunfeng continued to nod, and walked towards the artillery team of Chen Youliang's army. Chen Youliang's army did not have many cannons, a total of twenty guns, all of them were stupid and thick. The caliber of the guns was about ten centimeters. The cannon alone weighs about 6000 jin.

Chen Youliang introduced excitedly: "Master Rudder, this cannon is really powerful. It is called the Shenwei Longmen Cannon by the soldiers. It can blow open the city gate with one shot. It is very powerful. Coupled with the flowering bomb, it is really invincible. "As Chen Youliang patted the cannon body, Zeng Yunfeng didn't take it seriously.

From Zeng Yunfeng's point of view, this cannon is simply an antique in a museum.

But thinking about the current era, Zeng Yunfeng felt relieved.

In the current era, this gun is already a sharp weapon. It is much worse than the naval gun, but it is too heavy to pull. I don't know how many times it has advanced.

At the very least, he can still adjust the distance and shooting angle. Under the control of experienced artillery, the accuracy is not bad, especially it is a sharp weapon for attacking and defending the city.

This is also an important method used by the beggar gang to attack major cities.

The reason why Zeng Yunfeng wanted them to save slowly for a few years might not have taken into account the replacement of firearms troops and weapons and equipment.

They also had to spend and hoard food and grass. In the early days of the south of the Yangtze River, there were frequent wars and uprisings. Some rebels were no different from bandits.

Since the channel of Cam Ranh Bay was opened, a large amount of grain was transported to Changping warehouses in various parts of the south of the Yangtze River for storage in preparation for future wars.

War is never something that can be decided by slapping the head or the table. The soldiers and horses have not moved, and the food and grass go first.

Without long-term accumulation, it is purely whimsical to want to fight a big battle. The weapons, ammunition, food and grass consumed in each battle are inexhaustible and astronomical.

As soon as the cannon fired, the words "Golden Wanliang" were not for nothing.

Zeng Yunfeng patted the cannon and said: "This cannon, who are the gunners." After talking, several people stood up and saluted Zeng Yunfeng, "I am the gunners."

Zeng Yunfeng nodded, "Two shots, let me see."

Several gunners quickly stepped forward to load the gunpowder ammunition with gunpowder pellets and matchlocks.

"Get ready, let go!"

There was a loud bang, and the ground trembled. In the eyes of everyone, the sound shook tens of miles away, and it exploded at a distance of ten feet away from the target. The shot just now was an explosive bomb, but looking at the accuracy and distance, Zeng Yunfeng couldn't help shaking his head, aiming so accurately, a cannonball can hit such a distance, you know it's only [-] paces.

After the first shot, several artillerymen quickly cleaned the barrels and reloaded them, and their movements were smooth and smooth, but in Zeng Yunfeng's view, they were as slow as a turtle crawling.

Even so, after firing dozens of shells continuously, the gun barrel also needs to be cooled for a short period of time, otherwise it is easy to explode.
