The end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 68 Celebration

Wang Xiaotong smiled and said, "The general has increased the number of our artillery. He has been promoted and gave three tiger squat guns and a cannon in red. Now our artillery battalion has six tiger squat guns and a cannon in red."

"Captain, captain, how many people have the general added to our artillery?"

They all looked at Wang Xiaotong one after another. Wang Xiaotong said proudly, "The general has allocated me 200 people, that is, the establishment of a brigade. In the future, our artillery will no longer be a team, but a brigade."

Wang Xiaotong's voice has not yet fallen, and there is already an exclamation below.

"The brigade! It turned out to be a brigade. We just thought it was good for the general to give a squadron. We didn't expect it to be a brigade. Captain, you have jumped several levels in a row. It's amazing. It's amazing. The captain will definitely not be a thing in the pool in the future, and he will definitely fly to the top.

"Hahahaha"

Wang Xiaotong was almost done, so he said loudly, "Brothers, don't talk about it. Let's bring the three tiger squat guns and a cannon in red that the general gave us first. There will be a banquet in the evening."

"Okay, captain, let's go."

At the time of Xu, the sky was not dark. In the camp outside the city, there was also the place where Liu Xia lived in the city, full of laughter. Yesterday, I just took this home, and Liu Xia ordered all the troops to rest for a day, and let's talk about anything the next day.

There should have been a celebration banquet that was not held. Liu Xia was going to make up for this celebration banquet tonight. Except for some soldiers who guard Shangqiu City who strictly guard their posts, all the other generals and soldiers joined the banquet, but the difference is that the soldiers and the soldiers at the bottom are in their own camp. Drinking and eating meat in the field, and those senior generals have now gathered in the hall in the big yard where Liu Xia is.

Liu Xia sat on the main seat, with the battalion commanders and deputy battalion commanders on both sides. Everyone has a small table full of all kinds of wine and delicacies. These soldiers have been fighting these days. How can they have eaten such a good thing? Looking at these delicacies, many generals drooled. Of course, there is no Liu Xia speaking now, and no general dares to take the lead.

"Come on, I will give you a glass of wine first." Liu Xia raised her glass and stood up and said to the generals of each battalion.

Liu Xia now stood up, and the generals also stood up one after another, and all of them raised their wine glasses.

"Drink!"

"Today is a celebration banquet. You don't have to be so restrained. Let it go."

As soon as Liu Xia said this, the hall suddenly became lively, toasting and talking to each other and talking about the future.

"Today I'm going to eat ten roast chickens and drink ten jars of good wine." Wang Shitou poured a jar of wine into his mouth, and the other hand was a chicken thigh, which had been bitten by Wang Shitou.

Wang Shitou's words suddenly caused a lot of laughter. Liu Xia smiled and said, "You can drink as much as you want today. As long as you can drink the stone, let alone the ten altars will be given to you by the general of the twenty altars."

"General, that's what you said. I'll drink 20 jars of him today."

"Hahahaha"

Chen Liu said, "Sir, we have captured the Guide Mansion. I believe that the Manqing tartars in the north will know the news for a few days. At that time, Dorgun will definitely send a great future expedition, and the general must be unprevented."

Liu Xia drank a glass of wine and said indifferently, "The general knows this, and he has sent some scouts to inquire about the news to see who is sent by the man. At the beginning, the victory over Duoduo was mostly by luck. This time, the Tats will definitely be more careful. We need to pay more precautions and let the battalions train more.

Chen Liu bit a piece of chicken, chewed it and swallowed it, and replied, "The general's Tatars in the north are mostly cavalry, and the main force of our army is also cavalry. Compared with the Tatar cavalry, we are a little inferior. I don't think the generals will disagree."

Ma Peng put the wine jar in his hand on the table and shouted, "What do you think we should do? How can our physical strength be compared with that of the tazis?

Chen Liu said, "To deal with the tartars, you can only take it wisely. If you fight directly, even if you win a big victory, you will lose a lot."

The era of cold weapons depends on physical strength and force. Compared with the tars in the north, the Han people in the south are a little smaller, and naturally they suffer some losses, which aggravates Liu Xia's determination to build a musket.

Liu Xia thought that if his soldiers were all holding muskets, it would not be easy to beat the tas? You should know that at the end of the Qing Dynasty, some thousands of coalition forces in the West could take down Beijing. Although the children of the Eight Banners at that time were indeed not good, there were still many people.

"How's the new barracks going?" Liu Xia suddenly asked.

Zhang Liang replied, "Return to the general, the poles that began to be collected are almost recovered now. The thousands of exiles recruited on the road are still a little insufficient. As for the 600 troops that the general asked the last general to receive, although their physical quality is good, and they are all soldiers who have been to the battlefield, they are loyal. I can't be sure, so I dare not use it.

Liu Xia asked again, "Intighten the training, and other battalions are the same. Previously, because these soldiers were all veterans, and due to the environmental constraints, I did not formulate some training plans for you. Now that I have come here, there is a stable environment. Then the soldiers of the battalions began to train more. I will add a few more training items for you.

"The main purpose of the necessary queue training every day is to cultivate the sense of obedience of soldiers. Achieve the purpose of the inevitable prohibition. The internal hygiene of the army must be done well and tidy. At that time, the general will go to check it in person. There are also 500 push-ups every day, which can be increased one at a time. At the beginning, do 100 push-ups every day. As for the system, I have asked Chen Liu to write it on the paper and send it to you later.

"The training of new recruits is very important. What I want is an elite division, not a flock of sheep and a pile of garbage. From tomorrow, each battalion will step up the training. There are some differences between the training programs of the new barracks and those of veterans. As for the detailed training programs, they have also been written down and will be picked up by Chen Liu later.

"Yes"

"Guys, come and drink!"

"Drink, drink, drink, hahaha"

......

The county government yard where the magistrate of Guide Prefecture lives is very large, with all kinds of pavilions and pavilions. It is very magnificent. Only Liu Xia and Bian Yujing live here. Bian Yujing's current identity is also a little embarrassing. She is said to be Liu Xia's wife, but Liu Xia did not marry her or touch her. No, the relationship between the two has always been very ambiguous.
