Chapter 243: Assemble a musket battalion

Yang Yichuan told Lin Tu and Li Ru so much, then the task of setting up the Musket Battalion was handed over to Lin Tu with confidence. The first is not to assess soldiers' physical fitness, basic abilities, etc., but to be more innocent and more loyal.
This musket is inherently a dangerous weapon, and it can be used to protect the country and protect the country, but if it falls into the hands of someone with a bad heart, it will be a disaster.
However, these things did not cause much trouble to Lin Tu. It was a small assessment. It was only a matter of selecting some people and it could be completed in a few days. At the same time, the Firearms Bureau is stepping up the production of this musket. Although this musket has been successfully developed, it is still relatively slow to produce.
Yang Yichuan estimated that it would take about half a month to arm a 100-person gun team. But first gather the people together and produce some to ensure training.
Five days later, Lin Tu came to the mansion and came to report to Yang Yichuan about the musket camp. Yang Yichuan listened carefully.
"His Royal Highness, according to His Highness requirements, 200 people have already been selected to form a musket battalion."
"It's done when it's done, and they'll divide it up later. They will come out to train independently, and they will be assigned to patrol independently. In terms of training, it's still according to the plan you made, and the content should include what I said. Now."
"It includes the training of muskets, the training of melee knives and guns, and the training of equestrians. As for what needs to be increased, General Lin, you are optimistic about the increase."
"Okay, I will work out after I go back."
"Well, that's hard work for you."
"There are two other things. The first thing is the content of the musket training, and the equipment of the musket. Now the musket battalion is established, but there is not even one musket."
"This is not in a hurry, there will be muskets made every day, and now some have been made, take them back first and let them start training."
"Okay, I will go back to the Firearms Bureau in the afternoon to take the produced muskets back. However, this training method also hopes that Your Highness can teach me and teach them to these soldiers."
"Okay, let me talk about the combat method of musket combat first, and then train according to the combat method."
"I will tell you this combat method first." Yang Yichuan began to draw strokes while talking with Lin Tu. Lin Tu's learning and acceptance ability was still quite strong. Yang Yichuan said a lot, but most of it was Yang Yichuan's relatively simple understanding, plus his own speculation.
As an old general, Lin Tu also gave a lot of suggestions and expressed his own ideas. Therefore, the two of them were still interested in consultation, and finally discussed about one morning, and finally formulated the initial training content.
"After discussing for so long, it's noon, stay and have lunch together"
"This is not necessary. If there is only one person under the Highness, I will stay there for dinner, but the Highness is now a family member. I am a big boss, but forget it."
"Well, I won't stay too much. As for the guns, the independent training place I said before, and a warehouse for storing guns and ammunition."
"The training site has been completed, the warehouse still needs time, and the separate camp of the Musket Camp needs time."
"It's okay, take your time, just have a place to train first."

Yang Yichuan sent Lin Tu away. In the afternoon, Lin Tu would send people from the Musketeering Camp to the Firearms Bureau to get the musket. Then formally announced the establishment of the Musket Camp, and Yang Yichuan would also go to see the people in the Musket Camp.
Just like the establishment of the Xihe Army, after the World War I last year, there are now some boundaries, but the boundaries are not so obvious. Mainly because there are too few people, Lin Tu simply took a piece of training. Of course, there are still some boundaries. Some people are unwilling to charge up and only want to defend the city. Yang Yichuan and Lin Tu also have no choice.
In the afternoon, at this new campus, Lin Tu went with the people of the Musket Camp. This new school was originally designed to train the Xihe Army, but this year the core part was built, and there are still many things not completed. For example, there are no camps near the school, there are warehouses and the like, only It is a bare school.
Yang Yichuan also intends to slowly move all the city guards over to train in this new campus. This time, the people of the Musketeering Camp were brought in for training, and it was only a time to experience the new campus.
Only 200 people were selected this time, and the musket battalion was formed. Although the number is still a little smaller, this is also an attempt. This is the first step in promoting the musket. Yang Yichuan is not in a hurry. Although it is said that summer is coming soon, Yang Yichuan feels that there is still enough time.
This winter and this spring, the Firearms Bureau is actually working hard. Not only is it vigorously producing artillery, the current number of artillery is absolutely capable of arming the entire Xihe City.
In this new campus, there is not completely covered with cement, there is a large part of the cement floor, and a part of it is normal soil, which is a lot of training methods in Yang Yichuan's impression. What is the training of creeping, what is the training of rope climbing and the like.
These more than 200 people have also experienced the training for the past six months. Before Yang Yichuan appeared, all of them stood in a military posture. They all stand upright, this spirit is still very similar.
Yang Yichuan came to this school, it was already after the nap, and the sun was not too warm. Yang Yichuan came to them. Compared with the so-called Xihe Army at the beginning, the people of the selected musket battalion can be said to be well-trained.
"Good afternoon, everyone. I think you all know me, so I will not introduce myself and go straight to the topic."
"You are all selected soldiers, and more importantly, you are very loyal to the Dawei dynasty. This makes me very happy, so I selected you and formed a musket battalion."
"The Musket Camp, as the name suggests, uses a musket. What you see today is a musket. The next time, you will all be equipped with a musket. This musket can be said to be a weapon similar to an artillery. In your hands, you It is necessary to use a musket to kill the Northern Plains."
"Several muskets are important, and you are also the first fighters to use muskets. You are also very important. I am very optimistic about the future of the musket, and I am very optimistic about your role in the future against the Beiyuan people."
"Training hard, killing the North Plains people to build meritorious service."
Yang Yichuan said very plainly, but still aroused the excitement of everyone.
"Training hard and making achievements."
"Training hard and making achievements."
The shouts of these 200 people sounded in the new campus. Yang Yichuan also retreated from the front and handed the next task to Lin Tu.
