Chapter 480
As Sun Chengzong explained, everyone nodded their heads again and again, but Man Gui couldn't hold back any longer, he looked like he had something to say, Sun Chengzong looked at the emperor, the emperor was already looking too far away, obviously his mind was not here .

"Zhongming, you seem to have something to say." Sun Chengzong asked Man Gui with a smile.The word Mangui was given by the emperor.

"Mr. Huige, yes, the general has something to say." Man Gui could not see anyone belittling the cavalry. As a loyal fan of the cavalry, as well as a practitioner and master, he felt pain in the hollow phalanx where the infantry fought against the cavalry. .In his opinion, there was no need for the emperor to set up an infantry phalanx to deal with the Eastern captives. As long as he trained [-] to [-] elite cavalry, he would be able to level the Eastern captives.Although he was trained by Sun Chengzong, obviously, he was not too convinced. The bigger reason is that, looking at the current posture, the emperor wants to use the infantry as the main force and the cavalry as the coordination. Then, in the future, he will fight the Donglu , the cavalry is at most a supporting role... So, I have to fight, isn't it said that people fight for one breath, and Buddhas fight for one stick of incense?
"Just say what you have to say." Sun Chengzong said with a smile.

"Old Hui Ge, the last general thinks that it is really unbelievable that these one hundred infantry can fight against more than a hundred cavalry. If the last general leads the team, it only needs one charge, and the infantry phalanx will collapse. If this phalanx collapses, those pawns will definitely scatter, and the final general just needs to follow and kill them..." Man Gui thought for a few days, and also felt sad for a few days, he really couldn't figure out why the emperor would use such a pawn Phalanx, why can this infantry phalanx restrain cavalry?He also admitted that this infantry phalanx does have some advantages, but it is a bit embarrassing for him to figure out the advantages in it. The emperor will not let them leak the secrets, and he can't even discuss it with someone. I have been suffering pitifully for several days, and today, I really can't hold back.

"..." Sun Chengzong looked at the distressed Man Gui and could only smile.

"Look, everyone, this musket and bayonet are six feet long. If the Donglu cavalry hit hard, they will definitely hit the musket. Although they can break through a gap, they will definitely die. In this way, the Donglu cavalry will charge To fight in front of you, you must have enough courage and guts, and you must be prepared to die for the person who rushes in front of you. This is a great test. The siege of the bayonet formation has begun, Zhongming, let me ask you, are you leading the team to charge the formation, are you planning to rush to the front or to the rear..." Sun Chengzong asked.

"This... the last general leads the team, and he always takes the lead..." Man Gui originally answered the latter sentence without hesitation, but thinking about what Sun Chengzong said just now, those who ran in the front would undoubtedly die , Man Gui hesitated again, thinking about the scene of bumping his head on the bayonet again, his heart skipped a beat, and he changed his words immediately, no one wants to hang on to the bayonet!Although it can kill one or two pawns...

"How? Is Zhongming afraid? If you rush to the front, you will die!" Sun Chengzong said with a smile on his face.

"Then..., then I will go around..." Man Gui was really a little scared. He wanted to say a circle, but he felt that the circle was full of muskets. Wouldn't he die faster if he went around with a horse?I didn't go on anymore, thought for a while, and said: "...the last general sent people who dared to die, to force their way into the formation..." Man Gui talked about it, and then said the way Sun Chengzong said, and went straight on and on A little bit of collision is the biggest damage to this phalanx.

"That's right, if Zhongming gets some casualties and hits straight, this phalanx is really easy to break through..." Sun Chengzong admitted the weakness of this phalanx.

At this time, Man Gui's head was full of mud, and he was a little bit sober. No one explained to him, no one reasoned with him, and it was quite torture for him to keep drawing the infantry formation in his mind.

The crowd also kept nodding their heads. Many things were completely imaginable for those of them who have been in the army all year round.

"...If the Donglu cavalry is not afraid of death and injury, the bayonet formation still has means. The bayonet formation is hollow. Even if it is opened by the Donglu cavalry, as long as it is quickly closed, it will still be a square formation. , and still be able to defend against the impact of the Eastern Captives..." Sun Chengzong continued to explain the advantages and disadvantages of the hollow bayonet phalanx.

"...Of course, the infantry's defense against the Eastern Cavalry with this hollow phalanx requires strict organization, strict discipline, and the determination to die. Otherwise, it will not be enough to resist the Eastern Cavalry..." Sun Chengzong said Disadvantages, also mentioned the requirements for organizing the hollow phalanx.

Man Gui couldn't hold back anymore, and said again: "Ge Lao, where are the infantry who are not afraid of death? According to the general, on the flat ground or on the grassland, a group of infantry saw a large group of cavalry When he rushed over, his legs were so frightened, where can he defend against the cavalry attack?" Man Gui finally found a place to vent his anger, and he has been suffocated for the past few days.You can't discuss it with others, and you can't hold your breath by yourself.

Sun Chengzong has been smiling more recently, and he has become more cheerful. Seeing Man Gui's distressed face, he already knows what Man Gui is thinking. pawns?"

Sun Chengzong didn't explain how strict the training and discipline of the new army were, and he would definitely be able to withstand the charge of the cavalry from the East. Instead, he asked Qin Liangyu directly. Anything persuasive.

"Mr. Huige, Suzhen doesn't know whether others can defend against it, but Zhensu is confident that she can do it. Haha, does the Mandudu not believe in Zhensu?" Qin Liangyu first answered Sun Chengzong's words, and then smiled faintly. Man Gui spoke.

Man Gui wanted to argue, but when he saw that it was Qin Liangyu, his words stopped, he didn't know what to say, there really are such soldiers in the world, and he even fought Donglu in actual battle, he even saw it with his own eyes, Man Gui Gui Gu's stomach full of complaints has almost dissipated, and his head full of muddleheads has finally become more sober.

"... But, at that time, you used a white long spear, which was a full one foot six. The spears were as dense as a hedgehog, and it was really difficult to shoot. I, Man Gui, dared to say that I would definitely be able to break through your spear formation. , but now the musket is no more than six feet, so short, I can smash through the formation with a dead man and a horse..." Man Gui didn't dare to speak big words when facing Qin Liangyu. He has seen spears as dense as hedgehogs pointing at you. No matter how brave you are, you still have to be afraid. They couldn't even reach the white soldiers. Thinking of this, Man Gui even lowered his voice. However, there was a new reason. The white soldiers were very long, and when they rushed up with a man and a horse, they would only hang on the gun. But now that the musket is so short, if you rush forward desperately, you can break through the phalanx.

"Mandudu's words are wrong. The weakness of the white-armed soldiers is that they have no sharp weapons for attack and counterattack. Although the muskets used in this phalanx seem to be shorter and have less defensive power than the white-armed soldiers, the commander-in-chief should not forget. The musket can shoot, but in fact, the distance of the attack is extended to a hundred steps, within a hundred steps, I am within the range of my shooting, and the commander-in-chief wants to charge, it may be more difficult..." On the scene, it suddenly became Qin Liangyu and Man Gui play against each other.A natural cavalry, a natural infantry, it is easy to understand when playing against each other.

Seeing the two generals with different opinions arguing, Sun Chengzong said with a smile: "You two don't need to argue, let me come to a conclusion."

Seeing Sun Chengzong talking, the two stopped arguing immediately.Wait for Sun Chengzong to speak.

"Zhongming is right. If it is a small-scale army formation, it is indeed difficult to defend against cavalry raids. It cannot withstand successive attacks..." Sun Chengzong explained with a smile.

After hearing this, Man Gui thought it was reasonable. If the infantry could easily defend against the cavalry attack, why would he need cavalry?Man Gui, whose head had been congested all the time, felt a little better.

"...However, in the decisive battle with Donglu in the future, it will definitely not be a small phalanx against Donglu..." Sun Chengzong continued.Speaking of the decisive battle with Donglu in the future, everyone cheered up and listened carefully.

"...Everyone, let's take a look at the changes in this phalanx..." Sun Chengzong said, and then gestured to the school lieutenant on the side. The school lieutenant got the news and waved the flag in his hand again and again.

There was an immediate change on the school grounds, and several teams of infantry came out again. Like the previous team of infantry, they also formed a hollow square formation, three square formations in a row, and three rows formed a larger one, with nine The large square array composed of hollow square arrays has gaps between each small square array, which is quite neat.

With such a change, the infantry phalanx, which was slightly thin before, immediately became thicker and more imposing.Layer upon layer of bayonets, shining brightly in the sun, is chilling.

"Zhongming, if we give you the same number of cavalry at this time, how do you charge?" Sun Chengzong asked Man Gui directly without explaining.

Seeing the thickened infantry phalanx, Man Gui also became dazed. This phalanx is just like the previous small phalanx. If you go around him to find flaws and kill him, it will definitely not work. The stacked muskets are not vegetarians. Speaking of them, they are just a little bit, or a side.

"Old Huige, at this time, the last general can still only attack a certain point. However, this square formation is composed of several small square formations. The final general will attack any point in it. In fact, it is no different from rushing to a certain side. The other two sides attack, so the casualties will definitely double, and if you want to break the formation, there will be more casualties... The four sides of the formation are the same, and there are no flanks. There is no good way except to constantly attack a certain side..." Man Gui After watching for a long time, he said solemnly, his head, which was originally a mess, became much more sober when he saw the real thing and the actual situation, to tell the truth.

"That's right, what Zhongming said is right. A single phalanx is too thin, and it's very difficult to deal with the cavalry's impact. If several small phalanxes form a large phalanx, the power will be reflected. At this time, some special functions , it can also be reflected..., everyone, please see..." Sun Chengzong gestured again.

The captain who was in charge of waving the flag immediately waved the flag in his hand, and another change occurred on the school field.

Hundreds of cavalry began to charge, and the infantry phalanx also fired, and some cavalry still retreated...

"...Do you see the problem? Zhongming?" Sun Chengzong asked, asked Man Gui again.

"Mr. Huige, I noticed some problems. The cavalry is relatively scattered, and the infantry phalanx is not very dense. Each phalanx is [-] steps long. There are three phalanxes with a total of more than [-] steps, plus the gap in the middle. There are nearly seventy steps..., seventy steps can pass twenty or thirty rides at the same time, but this, not many, only seven or eight rides..." Man Gui said doubtfully.

"Didn't Man Dudu want to line up in a dense formation? Man Dudu has forgotten, Ge Lao said that this phalanx is supported by cannons, and the Dudu's dense formation is a living target, isn't it?" What?" Qin Liangyu immediately refuted when Man Gui said that a row of twenty or thirty riders was charging.

Man Gui blushed when he heard Qin Liangyu's words, and his words were blocked. What he said was indeed a bit unprofessional, riding in a row of twenty or thirty, such a dense cavalry, the musketeer could fight even with his eyes closed. Get it, not to mention the blood trough plowed out by the cannon fire, that is really a living target.

"That's right, there are only seven or eight riders on each side. In fact, it's not too little. If there are more, as Suzhen said, I'm afraid that even the Eastern Prisoners may not be willing to pay for their lives... Suzhen said, the troops in this formation Let's not talk about the artillery for now, let's talk about it later..." Sun Chengzong said with a smile.

"Returning to the old man, the lower officials think that the infantry phalanx is a little sparse and does not form a tight formation. If according to what the old man said, each small phalanx is composed of four 120 people, and each side should be There are 120 people in three rows, and each row has 40 people. If 40 people squeeze together, they can squeeze down within 120 steps. In this way, there are 360 rods in a small square formation, and three small square formations. There are [-] ​​rods on each side, and with such a powerful volley, Donglu will never get close to the phalanx without paying some price! If you follow the current training level of Your Majesty's new army, you can completely injure the enemy a hundred times. Above..." Qin Liangyu said with a smile.The emperor used a large amount of live ammunition to train the new army, and Ouchi made famous guns, so Qin Liangyu dared to say that he hit one of three or four shots.

Hearing what Qin Liangyu said, everyone was suffocated, and Bai Jingrui would be lost in one fire. If the army of the Ming Dynasty should be disbanded, the fighting power of the generals of the Ming Dynasty comes from the servants, and the servants account for [-] to [-]%. Generally speaking, if you go to half of the servants at once, there is no need to fight this battle. If you are fighting against the officials and troops within the Ming Dynasty, you only need to fire once, and the battle should be over...

On one side of seventy paces, facing more than [-] poles, Man Gui muttered, those who rushed to the front would surely die!This is really a test of will, Man Gui muttered for a long time before saying: "Old Hui Ge, so, the last general can only continue to attack with all his strength, and he will not give up if he is not dead..." Man Gui thought for a long time, but he could only To do this, of course, he no longer dared to say that twenty or thirty cavalry lined up to attack, and that would involve cannons again.

"Well, yes, if at this time, the cavalry of the Eastern Cavalry still ignores the impact of casualties, maybe there is still a chance, but Zhongming, don't forget that Ouchi's damage at the [-]th pace is very powerful. On the first step, well-trained soldiers can achieve one out of five, one out of four, or even higher, how many troops have you lost all at once?" Sun Chengzong asked.

Man Gui remained silent for a long time, charging into the formation depends on the leader to charge in order to have combat power, but now, the leader to charge into the formation will undoubtedly die, and he feels troubled in his heart, if the people who lead the charge are all dead, That's a fart fight!It's no wonder that those people behind didn't swarm away.Of course, maybe Donglu was stronger than him, and maybe he was not afraid of death. After Sun Chengzong reminded him again, Man Gui had to admit that what Qin Liangyu said made sense.

"... Let's not talk about this for now, let's see the miraculous effect of this phalanx once it is formed..." Sun Chengzong looked at Mangui's helpless expression, and motioned to the captain.

The school lieutenant had also been listening to Sun Chengzong talking to several senior officers who led the troops. After Sun Chengzong finished speaking, he immediately waved the flag.

The cavalry on the school field began to charge.The infantry still fired muskets, but, strangely, when the cavalry rushed to the front of the infantry phalanx, they dispersed and ran towards the gap between the two phalanxes.

"...you may not believe it, if there is a gap between the two phalanxes, the horse is not willing to bump into the point of the knife, and must run towards the gap. This is a very interesting thing..." Sun Chengzong said strangely explained.

Everyone has tried this strange phenomenon. Dangling the bayonet in front of the horse. Sure enough, the horse is easily frightened. If you let the horse bump into the point of the knife, the horse will avoid it. Sun Chengzong said that everyone had a strange expression, and Man Gui also had a strange expression. He even took the horse's habits into consideration. This battle was really racking his brains.

Speaking of which, the school field is already full of gunpowder, the cavalry is constantly assaulting the weak spots on the four corners, and cavalry and infantry are constantly leaving the field. As the cavalry rushes in regardless of casualties, the infantry phalanx at the four corners, Finally unable to resist, they broke up, but, unlike ordinary breakups, they broke up not running around, but dragging and dragging everyone to the next square, looking for Asylum, the rear phalanx began to take over the battle, and the cavalry needed to start charging again, facing a brand new infantry phalanx...

Seeing this, many people have already understood the power of this hollow bayonet formation. As Sun Ge said before, the biggest difference between this formation and the traditional military formation is that the collapse is just one of them, not the previous one. All games are lost.

"...Everyone has also seen that another advantage of this small phalanx forming a large phalanx is that it is not afraid of being broken up. Even if the enemy cavalry rushes into it and breaks up, the whole line will not collapse. It only needs to be organized and orderly. As far as the left, right, and rear phalanxes are concerned, the last phalanx can continue to fight with a new attitude..." Sun Chengzong explained.

Everyone saw some tricks and saw that the nine small squares became five squares. Although four squares were reduced, it seemed that their strength had been greatly reduced. In fact, the loss was not much. The remaining few squares The formation became stronger because of the soldiers joining.

On the contrary, the charging cavalry seemed more and more tired, and the charge began to become weaker and weaker, not as mighty as before.

"Look again, everyone, the advantage of this is the problem of the wounded. Since the large army formation is still there, the wounded can be withdrawn completely. This has a considerable effect on the morale and morale of the army, and the hollow interior is for placement A good place for the wounded..., as everyone says, no worries, the advantage of this formation is that it takes care of the worries..." Sun Chengzong introduced.

Everyone really felt what Sun Chengzong said, those small army formations that were disintegrated, in fact, the "casualties" were at most more than half, and some of them were only [-] to [-]% of the casualties, but they were dragging and dragging some people who might be "wounded" Retreating to the last phalanx, because the people in the small army have a way to survive and a way to retreat, they are not too flustered. They shoot methodically, defend against the enemy, and retreat in an unhurried manner, just like the previous situation where they collapsed in front and fled in the back. completely different.

"...This is just a small trick, and the real power is yet to come. Once a decisive battle with Donglu, there must be dozens of square formations to form a large square formation. Two thousand rods are built in a big house. According to the training level of the new army, within [-] steps, it is completely possible to achieve one out of four. How determined you are..." Sun Chengzong said.

Everyone has watched a miniature version of the battle, and they also understand the advantages and disadvantages of this hollow phalanx.Quietly listen to Sun Chengzong's introduction.

"Large-scale decisive battles will definitely be assisted by artillery and cavalry, instead of completely using infantry against cavalry. The position of artillery, from left to right, is arranged in the fourth phalanx according to the staff's vision. , In this way, every side has artillery support to prevent the large-scale intensive attack of the Donglu, as long as the Donglu can't charge in a dense formation, there is no need to be afraid of the Donglu..." Sun Chengzong concluded.

"Ge Lao, what about the cavalry? Is there a place?" Man Gui has seen the miniature version of the infantry phalanx battle, and he has understood some of the tricks. He is no longer as confused as before, knowing that the emperor really wants to use infantry. The hollow phalanx of pawns is facing the enemy. The larger the scale of this kind of hollow phalanx, especially in a battle of tens of thousands of people, supplemented by artillery. If the cavalry wants to charge the formation, it is simply courting death. Man Gui didn't dare to think about the decisive battle, and he still had to listen to the emperor, so he immediately lowered his head, seeing that Sun Chengzong didn't mention the cavalry for a long time, and asked again, the supporting role should be the supporting role, don't mess it up If you can't even do a supporting role, it will be miserable.

"...The cavalry is the power and bravery at critical moments. It belongs to fighting fires and chasing and defeating the enemy. As Suzhen said, the weakness of the infantry is that it cannot chase the exhausted and scattered cavalry. The situation on the school field is also the same. You see, although the cavalry is exhausted, the infantry can't help the cavalry. Therefore, what the cavalry has to do is to resist the Eastern captives at critical moments, to gain opportunities for the infantry to line up, and then to chase and kill the exhausted and scattered enemies... "Sun Chengzong said.

Everyone nodded. Although they didn't fully understand it, they understood it roughly.

"As I said before, the most important thing in this formation is the coordinated combat of infantry, guns, and cavalry... Therefore, there must be the strictest training, the strictest discipline, and the will to turn a blind eye to death... You must do it. From mutual trust, mutual coordination and mutual assistance, this is the key to winning the war." Sun Chengzong said.

Everyone nodded again, constantly digesting Sun Chengzong's words.

"...Of course, this formation also has many weaknesses. Who can talk about the weaknesses of this formation?" Sun Chengzong finished his lecture and began to test everyone again.

Everyone was still digesting Sun Chengzong's words, and they were still in a daze. For a while, they didn't know what to say.Qin Liangyu was different. This battle formation was completely tailor-made for her white soldiers. She already had a complete understanding of this formation. Hearing Sun Chengzong's question, he immediately said: "Mr. Huige, this battle formation is the It is a battle formation of infantry against cavalry, and it has a miraculous effect of restraint against cavalry. However, such a dense formation is extremely afraid of artillery bombardment. If the opponent has cannons, the formation will be dangerous..."

As soon as Qin Liangyu said it, everyone understood. It is true that such a dense crowd gathers together, although the firepower is powerful, but they are also afraid that the enemy has cannons. Once the enemy cannons fire, the ground will be a blood tank!

"Well, yes, it seems that Suzhen has a thorough understanding of this formation. This formation is specially set up for cavalry. The most feared thing is that the enemy also has cannons. In that case, this formation is dangerous. But, fortunately, now Donglu doesn’t have any artillery, and there were some last time, but they were all destroyed during the Battle of Zhenjiang Fort. Now, Donglu doesn’t have a decent artillery. Of course, the premise is that my Ming Jin The merchants and salt merchants did not re-smuggle Donglu..." Sun Chengzong said with some weird smiles.

Hearing Sun Chengzong say that the Shanxi merchants and the salt merchants were connected with captives, these people here have different thoughts in their hearts. The salt merchants have been in the Ming Dynasty for 200 years. How many generations of emperors have no way to take the salt merchants? What should the salt merchants do? You can fiddle with the salt class as much as you want, and you can suck the blood of the Chinese people as you want, but when you come to the current emperor, you are uprooted, which shows the ability and courage of the current emperor, and they secretly looked at the emperor. With the appearance of Fuyou Taixu, they turned their heads one after another.He hated the Shanxi merchants, the salt merchants and the Tonglu very much. If he didn't pull out the salt merchants, and when it was time for a decisive battle with Donglu, Donglu would suffer a big loss if he didn't know where to get some artillery.

"Does Suzhen know, what other weaknesses are there?" Seeing that everyone's faces darkened, Sun Chengzong asked again.

"Mr. Huige, this team is still afraid of the same musket camp. If the same musket camp fights, it will really be lined up and shot! It's about the courage and will of both sides..." Qin Liangyu thought for a while, then said .

"That's right, what Suzhen said is right. Once this phalanx encounters the same phalanx, it will be completely lined up and shot. It's just a matter of courage and willpower on both sides... Therefore, this phalanx is a special formation. It was designed for a decisive battle with Donglu on the peaceful grassland. What is deceived is that Donglu has no artillery, no infantry, and only cavalry... According to the deduction of the staff department, Donglu will definitely come to besiege the city next year, hoping to siege and fight for reinforcements , the idea of ​​the General Staff is to use the cities to fight to the death, and all the cities in the frontier are supplemented with food, grass and ammunition. The deadly resistance for half a year is not a problem, and it can buy time for training the infantry phalanx. They will not risk huge casualties to attack the city, so as long as the besieged city is dealt with properly, it is not afraid of the siege of the Donglu... The key is how to save the soldiers, according to the wishes of the Donglu This is definitely not conducive to my Ming Dynasty. The staff considers that we will open up a second battlefield and land on the Sancha River to attract the Eastern Captives to fight. At that time, the Eastern Captives will not only besiege the city, but also come to attack our Sancha River Landing On this side, Donglu’s troops will definitely be dispersed. If you count Dongjiang Town Maoshuai’s containment and Donglu’s lair defense, on the Sancha River side, it is estimated that the troops will not be too high. It will not exceed 4. When the time comes, set up this infantry phalanx to face the enemy. Seeing that it is an infantry phalanx, Donglu must think it is easy to deceive, and he will definitely attack. At that time, he will give Donglu a surprise... "Sun Chengzong affirmed Qin Liangyu's statement, and also assessed the strength and weakness of this phalanx, and combined the deduction of the staff department to explain the war next year.

Everyone also took a breath and lined up to be shot?That is really a "good word", and that really tests one's will!Everyone knows something about the deduction of the staff department. After listening to what Sun Chengzong said and seeing this hollow infantry phalanx, I have a deeper impression of next year's war. According to such calculations, Daming is sure to win and not lose.

"...The size of the infantry phalanx is estimated by the staff to be around 2 people. The core is Suzhen's white-armed soldiers mixed with the new army for training. The artillery and cavalry are also included. The total force is expected to be the same as that of the second battlefield. The strength of the army is quite..." Sun Chengzong continued to explain.

Everyone nodded again, the total strength of the troops was equal, according to the power of the infantry phalanx against the cavalry, they were really not afraid of the enemy cavalry, many people secretly looked at Qin Liangyu again, and saw that the commander of the white soldiers was very happy , I feel that the chances of winning in my heart are a little bit bigger. Qin Liangyu can fight Donglu with just white soldiers. Now he has strengthened muskets, cannons, and cavalry for the emperor. If he still can't win, then there are really ghosts.

The rehearsal on the school field was coming to an end. The cavalry in charge of the attack were already exhausted, while the infantry in the infantry phalanx were still five hollow phalanxes, firing and firing methodically. Not afraid of the cavalry, the cavalry is also less and less courageous to attack the infantry phalanx, the continuous firepower, it is really impossible to get close, if you are not prepared to die, you will die if you charge up, once you charge up to that place, There was no turning back. Of course, the infantry had no choice but to stare at the cavalry in the distance.

Sun Chengzong was explaining to everyone, and everyone was still listening carefully, the emperor was still wandering in the sky, a eunuch hurried over, Wang Chengen hurried over to ask what happened.

When he turned around, Wang Chengen was already grinning from ear to ear.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, happy event, great happy event!" Wang Chengen announced the good news in front of the emperor.

"...Oh, oh, what happy event?" Yang Reform just woke up from his fugue, and saw that the practice on the school field was almost over, so he realized that he had lost a lot of time in this ecstasy.

"Returning to Your Majesty, Duke of England, Duke of Cheng and other dignitaries have come to play together. They all said that they were inspired by the acting king. They all feel ashamed to share salt with the salt merchants, ashamed to use salt to make profits, and feel that this is sorry for Your Majesty. I'm sorry for the Ming Dynasty, so I voluntarily donated the salt in my hands to show my loyalty to the Ming Dynasty, please make a decision." Wang Chengen said with a smile, and the eunuch who came to report the letter was holding a stack of memorials, He smirked at the emperor.

The generals were shocked when they heard Wang Chengen's report. The emperor's methods were indeed one step after another, which made people dazzled. Going down, it must be justifiable to change the salt class, this step by step, I really don't miss any omissions!Don't give the "enemy" any chance.

"Oh, there is such a good thing? Hehe, it must be because of the stocks rewarded by me. These nobles are really..." Yang Reform said with a smile. In the next court, he handed over the playbook. Sure enough, this community of interests is different. There is motivation to do everything, and the actions are so fast.

Liu Yanyuan, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, has been thinking about this hollow infantry phalanx, wondering what the chances of winning against Donglu are. He is the most unfamiliar with this infantry phalanx. How the pawns fought, I heard Sun Chengzong said, I only thought it was very powerful, and I also felt very powerful when I heard Qin Liangyu and Man Gui arguing. After hearing Sun Chengzong's conclusion, I felt that Ming would win, and I was very happy. Hearing Wang Chengen report the honor The matter of Guishangzuo’s offering of salt, a word came to mind, "fighting with open flames", this word Qiao Yunsheng yelled at was the most suitable word to describe the emperor, but thinking about it, Liu Yanyuan thought it was wrong, this was not fighting with open flames, This should refer to Yangmou, which is so bright and upright that you have to obey and follow it. Once this Yangmou is launched, once it succeeds, you will not be the opponent of Yangmou even if you have thousands of schemes. People in the world are not shouting at salt merchants Fight and shout?If the emperor withdraws the Yan Yin and reforms the salt class in such an open and aboveboard manner, who in the world dares to stop it?Looking at the generals around him, the general trend of the world is nothing like this!

"Hehe, since the nobles are so loyal, I don't want to ignore their kindness, so let's accept them all. In addition, I will send a decree to reward. As for the reward, hehe, I will talk about it later, let's go to the next one first." Praise, um, let the Dibao publicize this matter well, so that all the ministers and workers in the world can learn from them..." Yang Reform accepted it very logically, and these nobles were probably waiting for his order. Let's change the salt class.

"The slave obeys the order..." Wang Chengen immediately replied with a smile, such a good thing, this is simply a joy!
When the generals saw that the emperor had finished his work easily, they all stood up.

"How about it, Master Sun, are the drills over? How effective is it?" After explaining about Yan Yin, Yang Reform began to deal with other matters.

"Return to Your Majesty, the rehearsal is over, and the effect is not bad!" Sun Chengzong said.

"Oh, that's good. Today, I called a few of you to see this formation, so that you can understand my strategy. In the future, you will go your separate ways and cannot contact each other in real time. You can only rely on your understanding of this strategic arrangement to communicate with each other." Running in and cooperating," Yang Reform said.

"I understand." Everyone replied.

"In addition, the New Year is approaching, and I will not keep you, especially Yuan Chonghuan. You are the most likely to be besieged on the front line of Jinning. You must pay attention to it. After returning, immediately mobilize the whole army and the whole people. It is best to resist the preparations of the Eastern Captives. How to do it, how to resist it, I believe that after watching today's military exercise, I should have an understanding of the general staff and my vision, and we can use this layout strategy." Yang Reform said.

"I understand." Yuan Chonghuan said. In fact, after hearing the emperor's arrangement and strategy, he felt very uncomfortable. He thought that the Jinning line of defense was the mainstay against the Eastern captives, but in fact, the emperor never intended to let him face it. Against the enemy, he was always held back from the sidelines, and the battle of Sanchahe, where the emperor used white soldiers as the basis, made him feel even more disappointed. However, the emperor's strategy could not tolerate him.
