Doomsday Cataclysm: My Proficiency Panel

Chapter 454 Military Success

Since the [Red Blood Kung Fu] was taught to all the armies, and Wang Guangyun came back with the powerful weapon of [Qianji Pavilion], the military discipline in the entire military camp has been completely on track.

The soldiers first practiced health-preserving exercises every day, and then practiced [Red Blood Kung Fu], and their strength entered a period of rapid improvement.

In just three months, the overall quality of soldiers has greatly increased. With the weakest soldier being as strong as a third-rate warrior, Li Ming's army can be considered an initial success.

At this point, autumn has also arrived.

As time went by, the mobilization of troops and horses between the [Dagan] and [Xiongnu] became more and more frequent, and it was almost to the point where it was almost clear that a war was about to begin.

In the past three months, with Li Ming's ideas and the joint efforts of a group of masters from [Qianji Pavilion], new weapons were born.

"After several tests, the power of this specially made weapon is indeed extraordinary. Although it is not as powerful as our top hidden weapons, if it is processed according to your requirements and processed with instruments made with mana, it may really be able to arm the entire army!"

On this day, [Qianji Pavilion] Foundry Master Zongbo once again brought a newly improved 'iron pipe' weapon to Li Ming with an excited expression. He said to Li Ming: "This time, the latest improved material can fire 3000 times in a row. It can continue to operate normally after firing bullets, and it can be used intact whether it is in rain, buried in soil, buried in gravel, smoke, rain, dew, etc. Even if some structures are damaged by a certain degree of collision, it can still be fired out. bullet!"

"Oh? The effect is so good. What material did you use this time?"

Li Ming raised his eyebrows and asked secretly in surprise.

"It is smelted with cold iron and pine crystal. It is extremely strong and tough, and it is extremely resistant to the gunpowder inside!"

Zong Bo excitedly said: "Commander Zhao and Commander Wang have used magic power to completely change the machine. Once the machine is started, it can produce 50000 [Lijiatong] guns and rounds of ammunition per day. The quality of each gun can be guaranteed to be the same." , this gun is one of the many firearms produced by machinery!"

"Well, let me see it."

Li Ming heard a glimmer of light in his eyes, then took the [Li Jiatong] from Zong Bo's hand, loaded the magazine, and went outside the barracks to shoot.

"Suddenly..."

A series of firelights were produced. Li Ming held the trigger still and fired all thirty bullets in the magazine in one breath, shattering a piece of bluestone in front of him into powder.

The attack didn't stop until Li Ming's fingers were released.

Moreover, Li Ming could clearly feel that the recoil of this gun was not very high... at the very least, even the weakest soldier in the battalion could control it properly!

"Okay, very good, mass-produce this gun and bullets immediately and equip them for every soldier!"

Li Ming handed the firearm to Zong Bo's hand with a smile, and then asked with piercing eyes: "The firearm is equipped, how is the cannon you are studying?"

"okay!"

Hearing this, Zongbo quickly handed over the firearm to the deputy beside him, and then looked at Li Ming and said solemnly: "Everything is going well with the cannon research, but there is still one last hurdle. We will be ready within ten days at the latest. I can get you the best cannon!"

"Okay, in that case, I'll wait for your good news."

Li Ming nodded with satisfaction, then turned back to the barracks and issued an order: "All soldiers, including reserves, must be equipped with firearms. From now on, firearms training will begin in addition to daily martial arts training. They must be able to hit the target with 100 shots within 200 steps." !”

Two hundred steps is a very far distance for ordinary people, but for Li Ming's soldiers who started as third-rate masters, it is not that far. They are fully capable of hitting objects at this distance.

"At the same time, after the second generation of health-preserving exercises are distributed, the proportion of practicing health-preserving exercises will be slightly increased."

Li Ming spoke immediately. In an instant, with the voice of the messenger, the entire military camp started to move. Li Ming nodded with satisfaction, and a smile appeared on his face.

In the past three months, it is no wonder that he has been drawing drawings and making requests, sifting through various magical materials that exist in this world to manufacture and optimize firearms.

He discovered that with the various magical materials in this world, firearms could reach a very strong level without much effort. It was so natural and gratifying. After three months in a row, he finally used the magical properties of mana to develop a manufacturing machine. , and firearms that are satisfying enough.

This time, the combat effectiveness of Li Ming's entire army will be greatly increased!

As soon as he thought of this, Li Ming couldn't help but feel happier, but then he became even more immersed in his own practice.

He knows that no matter how powerful these weapons are, they are only external objects. Only his own cultivation is the foundation, so he will not abandon the basics.

Even the stronger these weapons are, the harder he will practice, because no matter how powerful the weapons are, they are controlled by people. If you hold such a good weapon, if your own cultivation is not good enough, it may become the reason for others to destroy you.

In addition, only if you are stronger can you control the weapon better and obtain it for a longer period of time, so no matter what, cultivation is the most important.

"..."    With Li Ming's order, the entire military camp quickly moved into operation. In just ten days, all soldiers were equipped with this new weapon and began shooting training.

At the same time, a cannon that surprised Li Ming was delivered to him.

"This cannon only requires the strength of a civilian to pull it. It can be easily moved even in the mud or grass. It can even be pulled up to the mountain, across rivers, rocks, and just by turning the turntable, the cannonball can be fired. Firing it out continuously, it can fire five hundred rounds at a time without damaging the barrel."

Zongze pointed to the cannon with a turntable on the back and spoke to Li Ming.

"Originally, this cannon could have been handed over to you ten days ago. However, due to the issue of movement and firing speed, it has been postponed until today. Finally, it has been solved."

Zongze smiled brightly, Li Ming pursed his lips, and asked someone to test the power of the cannon. He found that it was greater than he imagined. He couldn't help but nodded immediately: "In that case, then, if you build a thousand cannons like this, the cannonballs will One hundred thousand rounds, specially trained for artillery use!"

"Yes!"

Along with Li Ming's excited voice, the entire military camp began to change vigorously.

Of course, even so, their cultivation has not fallen behind.

In the blink of an eye, another two months passed. The soldiers under Li Ming were all familiar with the new weapons. He knew that his army was ready!

What kind of army is considered a good army?

During the Spring and Autumn Period, King Helu of Wu wanted to test Sun Wu's military training skills and asked Sun Wu to train hundreds of palace maids and his two beloved concubines into an army.

At the beginning, King Wu's beloved concubines and palace maids were wearing armor, holding weapons, laughing and playing, staggering around. When Sun Wu saw this, he first made the two concubines captains and announced an order. Everyone heard the sound and turned right with a drum. , turn left with the second drum, beat the drum continuously to advance, and retreat after shouting gold. Those who disobey military orders will be beheaded immediately.

Sun Wu ordered the drums to be played, but the palace ladies in the audience were still laughing and playing, and did not take Sun Wu's words to heart at all. The two concubines were laughing so hard that Sun Wu repeatedly declared, and the palace ladies in the audience were even more playful and fighting. Make trouble and ignore Sun Wu.

Sun Wu immediately ordered that the two concubines be beheaded according to military law. When the bloody heads were placed in front of the palace ladies, the palace ladies were frightened. Sun Wu ordered the drums to be beaten again. The palace ladies all walked in order, obeying orders and prohibitions, as if they were one A real army.

Some people may say that Sun Wu was too cruel and did not take human life seriously. In fact, only strict military laws can train a qualified army. It is the fault of the commander if the commander's military orders are unclear and the soldiers cannot carry out the military orders; it is the fault of the soldiers if the commander has clearly issued military orders but the soldiers fail to carry them out.

Everyone is afraid of death. Beheading those who disobey military orders can often serve as a warning to others.

The ancient army also had a continuous sitting system. During the service, if a soldier ran away and beheaded the corps commander, the corps commander ran away and beheaded the commander; the commander ran away and beheaded a hundred commanders; the commanders fled and beheaded the general; the commander died and his guards were all beheaded; through this In this way, the constraints imposed by military orders on the army are passed down level by level, and every level from the commander to the soldiers is effectively managed.

In order for soldiers to obey military orders, they must develop the habit of listening to military orders.

The army's daily formation training, turning left, right, and backward, may seem strange to you. What's the use of walking around all day long?

In fact, this is to cultivate our habit of obeying orders. To maintain the corresponding formation in battle, we must train soldiers to obey orders. When to get up, eat, train, wash, and sleep, we must obey orders. This is to obey orders. Integrating into daily life allows them to form muscle memory, form habits, and turn the execution of orders into subconscious actions, completely integrating into the blood of soldiers.

A strong army cannot just fight. It must also establish a good morale in the army. The morale is also combat effectiveness. This is also the difference between the army and bandits.

During the Southern Song Dynasty, the Yue Family Army made many military exploits on the battlefield against the Jin Dynasty. Even Wanyan Wushu, the general of the Jin Kingdom, lamented: It is easy to shake the mountains, but it is difficult to shake the Yue Family Army. The Yue Family Army has strict military discipline. "Plunder", the soldiers will chop off the feet of the soldiers who step into the people's houses; chop off the hands of the soldiers who take the people's things. It is precisely because of the good military atmosphere of the Yue family army that they can gain the support of the people and ensure their combat effectiveness. , invincible.

If an army wants to win a war, it must have strong morale, and clear rewards and punishments are the best way to boost morale.

During the Warring States Period, Shang Yang carried out reforms with the support of Duke Xiao. The most important one was to reward military merit. Soldiers beheaded their enemies, which was military merit. Those who achieved military merit would be awarded a title.

Therefore, the Qin army was happy when they heard about the battle. One of the most accurate sayings is that the Qin army soldiers had an enemy's head hanging on their waist. They captured prisoners with one hand and rushed forward with weapons in the other. This is also the reason for the Qin army's strong combat effectiveness.

Among the famous anti-Japanese general Qi Jiajun in the Ming Dynasty, military discipline was even stricter.

Anyone who lies about illness before going into battle will be executed; anyone who abandons his ordnance before going into battle will be executed; anyone who buries himself when the enemy cannot afford it or who wakes up early will be executed. During the Ming Dynasty, firearms had begun to become popular. The army had a gun (chong) team, which had specific military disciplines as a firearms team. As a musketeer, the one who fires early will be beheaded; if the musketeer dies, the soldiers guarding the musketeer will be beheaded; the captain will be beheaded if he discovers that there are few violations of discipline; if one person retreats, the other will be beheaded, and if the whole team retreats, the captain will be beheaded; if the captain dies in battle, the entire team will be beheaded. Beheading; surrendering in battle, raping women, etc. will be killed without mercy. In the military discipline of the Qi family, beheading is a common punishment method, and the punishment second only to beheading is ear cutting.

For those who retreat in the face of battle, the armor commander is allowed to cut off the soldier's ears, the captain to cut off the armor commander's ears, the whistle commander to cut off the captain's ears, and the commander to cut off the whistle commander's ears. At the end of the battle, all those found without ears were beheaded in public. Those who leave the team to urinate during the march will have their ears cut off; those who make noises will be tied up for 40 days; those who spread rumors to disrupt the army will have their ears cut off; those who gossip and cause homesickness will be given 20 sticks. During the entire march and war, apart from singing military songs in unison, there were no other entertainment activities, and gatherings of people to drink and accepting banquets from the people were not allowed.

Strict military laws are not only unique to the Qi family army. All the invincible armies from ancient times to the present have strict military laws. During the Warring States Period, there was also a military book "Wei Liao Zi" about severe punishment in the army. The book records: "Those who are good at using soldiers can kill half of the soldiers, the second is to kill thirteen, and the next is to kill eleven." Here "kill" "Pawn" does not mean killing the enemy but killing one's own soldiers. For a starting army that wants to be powerful in the world, it must kill at least half of its soldiers. The Qi family army grew from scratch and finally became a powerful force in the world. There are only a few soldiers left in the first batch, and I am afraid that half of them were killed for violating discipline.

There are many armies in history that are famous for their strong combat effectiveness. Famous generals such as Sun Tzu, Wu Qi, Tian Ruju, Han Xin, Zhou Yafu, Zhao Chongguo, Yang Su, Yue Fei, Xu Da, Nian Gengyao, etc., without exception, have strict military discipline. Taking the Yue Family Army as an example, Yue Fei's execution of his uncle was truly recorded in the "Three Dynasties Northern League Huibian" compiled by Xu Mengshen of the Song Dynasty. Someone complained that Yue Fei's uncle Yao was nuisance to the people. Yue Fei was a filial son, so he reported it to his mother first, then punished Yao and said: "What my uncle did has implicated me. If he does it again, I will tolerate it, but I am afraid that military law will not tolerate it." Unexpectedly, a few days later, Yue Fei and his generals were marching on horseback, and Yao also walked with him. The resentful Yao galloped forward dozens of steps, suddenly drew his full bow, turned around and shot an arrow at Yue Fei. Fortunately, Missed. Yue Fei urged his horse to capture him, "order Wang Gui and Zhang Xian to seize his hand, take his own sword, cut out his heart, and then cut it into pieces."

It is absolutely impossible to become a famous general simply by being bloodthirsty. Killing is the means of running an army, and strict military discipline is the final result. Blindly being fond of killing can only provoke mutiny. Qi Jiguang was not a general who killed indiscriminately. His love and recommendation for his generals were almost comparable to the harsh military laws. After the war, the first thing Qi Jiguang did was sit in the big tent and write a list of those who had made meritorious service, and asked for credit from his superiors and the court. For example, in a letter to the emperor after the war, he said that he was uneasy: "There are many people in Zhejiang who have not been able to do well, and there are many people in Fujian who have not rewarded their merits, and those who have died have not been rewarded, so even if they take away all their titles and rewards, they will The spirit of loyalty is still felt in the dark. I still have to jump on the horse to eat meat, but the buds anointed by the soldiers will become arch handles."

Li Ming's soldiers must be effective and disciplined, and they must be disciplined. This can be considered a success! (End of chapter)
