Chapter 282: Waving the knife to defend yourself

The group moved to the entrance of the village again, and indeed saw a wooden wall erecting at the entrance of the village. A team of trainees stood beside the wooden wall. However, the people who went out of the village did not stop them. But if they were people entering the village, the trainees asked in detail - who to come to find, what relationship to that person, what is the matter with this person, how long does it take to discuss, when to leave, etc.

Not only did he ask this, but there was also a clerk next to him writing down all the interrogation records and then releasing them. Compared with the modern access control system, the signing of the parties involved was missing.

Fang Yuanwai remembered that the servants said that the group trainers wore armor. After a closer look, the group trainers wore the kind of "leather armored guests". However, compared with those patrolling in the village, these people also wore leather helmets. It was a small dome helmet - actually a knight hat made of imitation of the Russian Dragoon helmets. This hat was in line with the style of the Song people's favor, just like that, although there were many popular hat styles of the Song people, few hats used by warriors were beautiful, so this hat became the favorite of the generals, and the generals called this hat "Haizhou crown".

The black Haizhou crown leather is shiny, with a small pointed needle on the top of the helmet. Two leather ropes are hanging from both sides of the helmet to fix the helmet. It is now the third month of the lunar calendar, and it looks like it is about the end of April and early May of the Gregorian calendar. Although the weather is so spring, it can no longer wear leather clothes, let alone wear leather helmets. But those young men don’t care. They sweat so hard, but they button their clothes very tightly and their hats are very straight.

The weapons sent to them are also good. The shape of the swords is slightly different from that of the Park sword. Although the blade body is also curved like the Park sword, a bracelet is added with a bracelet. After adding the bracelet, the center of gravity of the knife is closer to the handle. When the person holds the knife, the blade body seems to extend the arm. This kind of comfort of the human sword is happy, and the group trainers who are standing guard are happy. They take out the knife from time to time to dance, and feel the comfort of using the knife.

Even though he didn't understand military affairs, he couldn't tell the specific reason. Fang Yuanwai saw the team trainers eager to try the energy, and suddenly felt discouraged and desperate - forgot, Cui Zhuang's team trained with sharp sword armor and was invincible.

"This is because the army has a sense of honor... Well, it's even the army." In Cui Yuan's Wangxiao Pavilion, he was holding a single-hole telescope to observe Shi Chuan from a distance and added softly.

Shi Chuan didn't know how many crazy believers could be gathered by a messenger from the White Lotus Sect. However, judging from the fact that Mr. Gao's uprising could quickly affect the three states, there are many believers lurking everywhere. Faced with the upcoming crowd of crazy believers, Cui Zhuang had to fight against more with few enemies. The only way to take was the "eliminary soldier route" - elite soldiers, sufficient food, sharp knife, and strong armor.

Unified clothing is both a psychological tactic and a treatment that soldiers should enjoy. In the Warring States Period, King Fuchai of Wu used a unified military uniform to make the Jin army feel that the opponent's military power was "in full" and "in full of fire", thus achieving the goal of defeating the army without fighting.

The few soldiers in Shizhai rely on strong financial resources and knowledge beyond the times. First, use psychological warfare to make the other party feel that their lineup is strong and powerful, so that the other party dare not provoke easily. Then use the show-off uniform to arouse the soldiers' sense of honor, so that the soldiers can maintain a condescending attitude when facing the investigated people - the two sides fight, either the east wind overwhelms the west wind or the west wind presses the east wind. If you have enough momentum, the other party will naturally wither.

This momentum is modernly called "sense of honor for soldiers".

"Sweep", a sneer came from Shi Chuan, and Mr. Hai, who had a blind eye and had a broken leg, whispered: "That's all made of money."

Shidai is not taboo, and responded: "Yes, the army has always been a place where money is spent. We have never equipped them with unified clothing before. In the future, we will take this opportunity to make up for everything we need to make up for - people should learn to go with the flow, right?"

"But your regiment training is not an army," Mr. Hai fell on the recliner, lazily poured himself a glass of wine, and slowly sipped: "Your regiment training now has learned to obey orders at most, but it cannot obey orders or cooperate with each other to fight."

"It's always the landlords' armed," Shi Chuan continued to observe with a telescope, and said without looking back: "This era is the era of literati. I trained soldiers on a large scale and would inevitably be impeached. If you are not careful, it is the danger of raiding the family."

"Practice is not a difficult problem, right? How did Mr. Gao's army train? Why can't you do it? Also, the Song Dynasty was an era of formations that paid attention to. In this era, the literati of the literati had developed a total of thousands of formations. Even if you practice formations, you would not have caused great surprises.

From a modern point of view, the only realistic example that can deal with cavalry and achieve success is the Spanish phalanx - existence is reasonable. Instead of spending time studying another possibility, how about you just use the examples of success in real society?”

"The time is not right--" Shi Chuan put down his glasses. At this time, Fang Yuanwai no longer wanted to wait for the agreed personnel. He left the village entrance with regret and turned to his own workshop. There was nothing to see outside. Shi Chuan also walked to the table and poured himself a glass of fruit wine. While drinking, he said, "There is Zhang Shuye in Haizhou. This is a superb minister. Be careful under his nose and don't become the second Fang Juren.

Well, you are right. Practicing formations is a common example in the Song Dynasty. There is no shortage of talents in the army, but I lack you and I have only read relevant information, but I have no practical experience in specific practice matters. In fact, I have also thought about it this time. Formation, we have been studying formations since the Spring and Autumn Period. Although the Spanish phalanx is a bit strange to the Song people, it does not deviate from the general pattern of the ancient Spring and Autumn Period. Take it out and say it was developed by our own. I believe that the Song people who have seen strange formations will not feel abrupt.

But there is no one. Nowadays, it is difficult to find a cultural person or a talent who understands military. How dare one or two scholars who are both empty words use it? So I thought that I had to wait for an opportunity to do this matter, and wait for an opportunity to wait for an opportunity. When the matter outside the official is finished, there will be no opponents in this village. At that time, I can practice the group training clearly."

The manor in Cuiyuan was built by Mr. Hai. Wangxiao Pavilion is a three-story pavilion. The space inside the pavilion was not large. When Mr. Hai built this loft from a defensive perspective - this loft is the commanding height of the whole village, and it is just used to observe the dynamics of the whole village.

However, Cui Yuan came to Cui Xiaoqing's hands. Because the space of this Wangxiao Pavilion was not large enough and was not suitable for a literati tea party, it was useless. This time, Shi Chuan asked Miss Cui to open the attic and observe it here. However, when Mr. Hai was idle, he simply came here secretly and accompanied Shi Chuan to drink and chat in the attic.

After a brief pause, Shi Tong continued to say in a tone of soliciting opinions: "Now Duan's blacksmith shop has stored enough sword making capabilities. I think that the next step is to expand the steel production, but under the salt and iron monopoly method, the monitoring is relatively strict. How to get loopholes? Do you have a solution?"

Mr. Hai took a sip of wine and replied: "War, the competition is iron and fire. I heard that during World War I, the two sides of the fire exchange often suddenly stopped fire due to insufficient shells, and then they had to call on the people to collect scrap iron to make shells. The iron production in the Song Dynasty was said to be several times the total of the world at that time, but in average, it would be thin. When various prefectures and counties faced the Hu people who could rob without restrictions, the country with the world's largest steel production actually had insufficient weapons. It is impossible to say that this is a disadvantage caused by the monopoly of salt and iron.

I calculated that in the early days of the Cold Weapon Age, each soldier damaged an average of 1.24 weapons per war. In the late period, the damage rate of weapons was higher - because the armor was also stronger. I believe that the Hu people's armor was not solid. According to the minimum water quality, if you get 500 team training, you need at least 1,500 weapons to be insured...

Sure enough, the army is a bottomless pit. According to 500 soldiers, for a war, the amount of steel you need to reserve is more than 30 tons... Haha, since I came to this world, I have been planning to run away until I never worry about survival issues - but I would like to remind you one thing: Do you remember the Afghan War?

After the war in Afghanistan, people seized the Remington gun made in 18 years. From a common sense, the lifespan of the musket barrel is limited, but in Afghanistan, tribal conflicts never stopped, and wars of all sizes continue. They can use a gun for more than a hundred years. Do you know what to ask?

Haha, those guns were produced by the British Indian factory, using Indian steel. The quality of Indian Uz steel, and the chamber pressure of the smoothbore gun was not high, so those guns were used for more than a hundred years until they became antiques and their artistic value was higher than the value of the gun itself. Then they gave up."

Shi Chuan touched his chin and thought about Mr. Hai's words. Suddenly, a noise came from outside the window. The sound was so loud that even the upstairs could be heard. Mr. Hai sat still and pointed out the window: "I'm fighting."

Try it on and grab the telescope and walk to the window, looking out along the crack of the window. Sure enough, on the road leading to Baihu Mountain at the entrance of the village, the group trainer was pushing and shoving with a group of people. The group trainer seemed to be very uncomfortable with the swords and guns in their hands. They pinched the gun stick but did not dare to stab them with the tip of the gun. Some group trainer hesitated, and some group trainer turned the tip of the gun and used the tail of the gun as a stick. The group trainer holding the knife was holding the unsheathed knife in his hand, hesitating and dared not go forward.

In the blink of an eye, a idle man suddenly grabbed the gun from the trainee's hand, weighed it in his hand, laughed and mocked a few words, which immediately aroused the trainee's anger. The trainee with a knife stepped forward, and the sword danced the sword threatened the other party to put down the gun. Instead, the other party yelled loudly: "Fuck the water-dried man, I'll dance the gun before my breasts are broken. Grandpa will teach you how to dance."

Young Master Hai walked up and asked in a low voice: "Do you need to mobilize troops?"

Shi Chuan shook his head: "I spent so much money to train them, but it's not for them to show off. If they can't handle such things, then just fire these people and I'll push them back and start over."

Mr. Hai smiled and said, "I heard that you took in 100 orphans of eight or nine years old in this great famine - give me these people, I will go to Donghai County to train you, feed them big fish and meat since childhood, and keep them tall and strong."

Shi Chuan nodded: "It's time to isolate them. People who grew up in clan society are too cowardly."

As he was talking, a sudden change occurred. During the quarrel, a casual man followed suit and intended to grab Park's knife. The group trainer who had just shown off his good knife was willing to submit. He waved the knife to defend himself. The sharp knife cut through the arm of the contender and cut it on the bone. The casual man screamed loudly. For a moment, both sides of the quarrel were stunned...
