Li Xiao shook his head helplessly, "Houheixue! The knowledge here is too deep!"

For the famous Zhenjiang Fort victory, Wang Huazhen gave away a thousand taels of silver. The money he gave back was given to Mao Wenlong. To put it bluntly, it was to give Master Mao some face and shut up his mouth.

Wang Huazhen never expected that it was not Mao Wenlong, the master of Dusi, who had the final say on Pi Dao, but Li Xiao, a young boy!

"Yes, where can we be as comfortable as we are when we return to Shanhaiguan? Damn it, Mangui, I don't care whether you go back or not. I definitely won't go back! You can still eat military rations, I'm a loser." Ao Canghai patted his body.

The sand came in.

"Grandma, just drink soldiers' blood and eat up your quota on weekdays. I'm greedy for this small sum of money! One thousand heads, fifty thousand taels of silver! His grandma is a bear!" Man Gui smashed the pine wood table to pieces with one slap.

.

The raccoon-like hairy man jumped out with just a "scratch"! Now he lives like a cat every day, and will be frightened whenever there is any disturbance.

The life on the island is really not suitable for Mr. Mao, who is an official. Looking at it, the island is full of poor people. There is not even a village chief! Ao Canghai is a poor man.

Got posted.

Mao Wenlong's identity suddenly separated him from everyone. During this period of time when Master Mao was on the island, his life was worse than death. There were no dogs on the island, otherwise the dogs would not bite him.

"Ha!" Li Xiao couldn't help but laugh out loud. It's quite enough for Lord Dusi to be so virtuous.

"Brother Man, from now on we will take root on this island. Go and ask your brothers if anyone is willing to go ashore, I, Li Xiao, will give you money. I said...! Don't talk with a straight face or scare people again.

"

"Ask me! Where can I go to Shanhaiguan where I can feel so comfortable? I won't go! I'm not going anywhere! I'm a very straightforward person. If I were sold by others on the shore, I might even pay for the people. It's rare to meet someone like you who can talk.

There's no need to be secretive when doing things. We're here, we're not going anywhere!" Mangui sat down on the chair and let out a long sigh.

"Okay! Then we brothers will stir the pot together from now on. Master Mao will stand outside the door. Come inside, even if we are in Liangshanbo, we still have a top position for you." Li Xiao smiled and greeted Mao Wenlong at the door.

wave.

Mao Wenlong moved in with his back against the wall. He was very afraid of Ao Canghai and Man Gui. In fact, he was more afraid of Li Xiao, a boy with no hair. There are really not many people who have the ruthlessness to deal with Ma Ying!

Now, when he thinks of those dozen people who were frozen to death, Mao Wenlong trembles all over.

When Man Gui and Ao Canghai saw Mao Wenlong come in, it was like seeing a ball of air.

Li Xiao knows that Mao Wenlong can't be too offended. This guy has very strong connections in Shandong. If Pidao wants to live in the future, it has to rely on supplies from Shandong, although it needs money to buy them. But these days, you hold up the money.

It's already good to be able to buy something.

The local government is very strict about food, cloth and cotton. As long as the ship comes from the north, you can't buy anything. Especially cotton, which is strictly controlled by the government. Last time, Mao Wenlong wrote a letter, and he could

Pulling out three big ships shows the value of this guy.

More than three months have passed, and the sea breeze has become warmer and warmer. In May, the locust trees on the mountain are blooming. The mountains and fields are filled with fragrance, and you can take a breath and go straight into your lungs. It feels great.

!

"Turn left! Move together!" Ao Canghai shouted the command, and his soldiers turned around neatly and walked forward in an orderly manner.

After three months of training, these farmer brothers can finally distinguish the direction clearly and perform queue movements in an orderly manner. When muskets were still in their primitive stages, queues were actually very important because they needed to rely on intensive shooting to make up for the low shooting accuracy.

problem.

More than a hundred meters in front of the queue, there were more than a hundred human-shaped targets made of straw.

"First row! Release!" After a burst of "crackling" sounds, the matchlock guns in the hands of the soldiers in the first row rang out. Straws immediately flew from the target more than a hundred meters away. Several targets were hit by projectiles.

Pierced, the projectile hit the rock and stirred up countless debris.

Shooting is based on ranked units. A company has three platoons. Each platoon has three squads, and the soldiers stand in three rows. In other words, each company has twenty-four soldiers shooting at a time.

When the first row of soldiers shoots, they will retreat quickly. Then the second row of soldiers shoots, and then the second row of soldiers retreats. The third row of soldiers shoots, and by this time the first row of soldiers has been loaded. As long as the enemy

As long as the people on the other side didn't rush in front of them, the soldiers could continue in this endless cycle.

Of course, Li Xiao didn't think they could avoid hand-to-hand combat. However, Inatomi Yunao's matchlock gun could not be equipped with a bayonet, and the soldiers needed to be equipped with special waist knives for defense.

The waist knife designed by Ao Canghai is very similar to Qi Jiajun's Yuanyang knife, with blood grooves on both sides. It is slightly wider at the front and slowly narrows at the back. This design can ensure that the wound left on the opponent's body is very deep.

The Musketeers are Li Xiao's focus, and Liu Laoliu's fleet is also developing smoothly. The important thing is that there is almost no loss in fleet training. After a few laps on the sea, you can train a group of people who can barely sail a ship in a short period of time.

sailors come out.

Li Xiao does not intend to engage in ocean-going operations, as long as his boats can run along the coast. These boats do not have deep drafts, so there is no need to worry too much about underwater reefs.

Inatomi Yunao taught Zhao Tiezhu and others very dedicatedly how to build muskets, but this musket technology is really unsatisfactory. The manufacturing technology of gun barrels resulted in appallingly low efficiency. In one month, only ten barrels were produced.

.Of course, this is also related to Inatomi Yuzhi’s strict requirements on quality.

It has to be said that the old devil's obsession with firearms has reached the point of paranoia. As long as there is any slight failure in the processing process, it will be reworked or even scrapped immediately.

Li Xiao is quite satisfied with this point. After all, the quality of the weapon is related to the performance of the soldiers on the battlefield. The quality of the gun barrel is directly related to the shooting accuracy of the firearm. This cannot be careless.
