Chapter 486: What is a firearm?

In the past dynasties, the military scripts were very taboo things. After Wang Anshi reformed, he re-opened the martial arts, and the court published the "The Seven Books of Wu Jing" for teaching, but look at the contents of the seven books of Wu Jing. "Sunzi Art of War", "Wuzi Art of War", "Six Tao", "Sima Art", "Three Strategies", "Wei Liaozi", "Li Weigong Asked Right".
These military books are biased toward strategy. If you can read these military books well, you may be able to be a strategist on paper. As long as you are not in contact with actual combat, you will not find problems.
But when it's your turn to lead a soldier to fight, that's dumbfounded. How do you keep your formation on the way? How to arrange for rest and camp at night? These tactical and detailed things are not easily disclosed by the court. If you learn these things, what should someone do according to the rebellion written in the book? If you learn these details, you can really fight.
As soon as Wang Shao saw the name of this book, he immediately realized that it was a really useful military book, especially for people like him who were planning to go to the northwest frontier to establish meritorious service; now these are the secrets of training, marching, and camping They are all in the hands of a few people such as the northwestern general, and the father and son are not secretly written. It is not easy for outsiders to get a glimpse of it.
Although he was a jinshi, he also read a lot of military books, and even managed to get some know-how, but he did not have the opportunity to study systematically. Now Shen Long takes out this book, which can be said to be a gift in the snow.
"Thank you Master Dao." Wang Shao subconsciously glanced around, and found no outsiders to put down, ready to read this book, but as soon as he saw the author behind the title, he was stunned again, "Dare to ask the Master, This Qi Jiguang is that famous again? Please forgive Shao, who has never heard of it. "
Qi Jiguang is only a few hundred years old. You have heard that it is strange, and Shen Long laughed, "But this matter is not anxious, Zi Chun reads it first, see if this book will work." He does not for the time being. I intend to reveal my future to Wang Shao, and only Wang Anshi and his son know this matter.
In terms of actual combat achievements, Qi Jiguang may not be as famous as Ming Dynasty founders such as Xu Da and Chang Yuchun, but in terms of military achievements, Qi Jiguang is definitely the first person after Song, and even if he included the Song, no one can surpass him. After all, "Wu Mu's Posthumous Book" was created by Jin Yong, and there is no such thing in history.
So as soon as he decided to send a book to Wang Shao, Shen Long thought of Qi Jiguang. Between the "Ji Xiao Xin Shu" and "Training Documentary", Shen Long chose the latter. "Ji Xiao Xin Shu" was during Qi Jiguang's war on the Southeast Coast Summarizing the experience of military training and military management, and "Training Documentary" is his experience when defending Mongolia in Jizhen.
The main enemies of the Song Dynasty are Xixia and Qidan, but they are not pirates. Comparing the content of these two books, it is still more suitable for Wang Shao.
"Come, watch while drinking!" Shen Long drew a bottle of Guyue Longshan's rice wine from his sleeve, and drew out two wine bowls, and poured Wang Shao into a cup. Wang Shao is now wood, only Shen Long There is the ability in the sleeve.
After thanking, Wang Shao took a sip from the wine bowl and did n’t have time to praise the good wine. Then he looked at the catalog and read it. Fourth, the training camp fifth (field exercises), the training camp sixth (camp), the training camp seventh (camping), the training camp eighth (war contract), the training ninth; Volume six: General Theory of Chu Lian (upper and lower), general officer to Ren Baojian, dictation at the altar, military weapon solution, chariot riding camp solution.
Both are the unspoken secrets of the generals of the Song Dynasty. No, these are even more perfect than the experiences summed up by the generations of the northwest breeders, Yaos, and families who have gone through the battles of blood and countless lives; as for the Gaos in the city of Kaifeng , The Pan family, it ’s really hard to tell if the know-how of their family has been lost.
The text of "Training Documentary" is straightforward and accurate, and it takes no effort to read it. Shen Long chose a drawing book. Each page has a beautiful drawing to correspond to the text content, allowing people to understand Qi Jiguang's meaning more intuitively. Wang Shao It can be seen that the author of this book is absolutely authentic.
"Thousands of generals, one hundred totals, captains, and Wu Chang, this kind of military system is quite different from the Song Dynasty." Wang Shao said half of the words, he certainly can see that this military system is more conducive to command, But this kind of thing is not something that can be said casually. The Song Dynasty has carved into the bone marrow about the generals who lead the army. If someone hears him talking about the military system, I am afraid there will be no chance to lead the army.
Since Shen Daochang and the scholars of Jiefu knew each other, perhaps it could be hinted that he would let Jiefu Xianggong preside over military reform. Wang Anshi's ambition to reform the reform is well known, and Wang Shao also knows it.
"Archers, gunmen, palladium hands, swordmen ... This combination is enough to prevent the cavalry from approaching." Looking at the formation given by Qi Jiguang, and then referring to the schematic diagram beside, Wang Shao quickly understood the benefits and weapons of these formations The style, "Whether it is Khitan or Xixia, when I met the soldiers of the Song Dynasty to form a battle line, they did not dare to face the battle head on, but now this formation is more flexible than my battle line of the Song Dynasty. You can keep ... "
After the admiration is over, Wang Shao has new doubts ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Dare to ask the director, what use is this hand for? What weapon is Huozhen? What is the use? "The ancestor of firearms, the sudden rifle, was not invented until the Southern Song Dynasty. Of course, Wang Shao did not know what Huo Bing did.
"Oh, this is an ordnance that is quite similar to the Divine Arm Bow, but with a relatively short range of only one hundred steps." The Song Dynasty had a step of almost 1.2 meters, and the Divine Arm Bow had a range of two hundred and forty steps. " However, the power of Huo Bing is not weaker than the Divine Arm Bow, and it is much more labor-saving than the Divine Arm Bow. Even if you shoot for dozens of times, you will not feel tired. "
God ’s arm bows, bows and arrows are also very strenuous. Pulling a string and stroking it takes a lot of effort. The average soldier has no effort to open the bow in a round, but the fire is different. This is also one of the important reasons for the gun to replace the bow.
"And the practice of the fire gun is simple. If you want to become an archer, you have to take several years to do it. The fire gun can be trained in a few months." This is another advantage.
"If there is a weapon of the gods in the Song Dynasty, why do you worry that the party's Qi Qidan is uneven!" Wang Shao looked at Shen Long with glowing eyes. "I don't know if there is such an artifact in Chang? Can Shao see one or two?"
"What's so difficult about it?" Shen Long stood up and called Wang Jiao. "There's a deserted ravine in the back. Go there and let the two see the power of fire. As for the others, let them stay outside!"
