Chapter 435: Famous through the ages
()
The more Zhang Fu spoke, the more excited he became, and he pondered for a moment and said, "If the Yin and Yang Formation can be improved in this way, it will definitely be of great use in the future, and General Yang will definitely be famous for eternity."
Yang Zheng smiled and said: "General Zhang said that he laughed, his name is immortal, and the junior brother doesn't care about it for a long time, but the younger brother of this formation has never improved it like this, and I don't know if it can be ——?."
Zhang Fu said with a smile: "Don't you know if you can improve it?" Yang Zheng glanced at him, smiled slightly, and said, "Could it be that General Zhang wants to improve the Yin and Yang Formation here?"
Zhang Fu nodded, and suddenly turned his head and shouted, "From today onwards, the whole army will practice General Yang's Yin and Yang Formation until it is extremely proficient?
All the soldiers were very yearning for Yang Zheng's mandarin duck formation, and they were surprised to hear that they could practice, and shouted in unison.
Yang Zheng didn't want to be powerful, but it could be seen that Zhang Fu's face was excited, and he didn't want to say anything, besides, he also wanted to see how powerful the Mandarin Duck Formation was when he added the mandarin duck formation to the chariot, firearms, and firearms, and after thinking about it carefully, he didn't say anything more.
After the two of them discussed, in view of the Yin and Yang formation to increase the scale, if only a few people know the use of the Yin and Yang formation, it is indeed unreasonable, at the moment personally selected some strong soldiers to train, the use of various weapons, the evolution of the formation, and the combination of the length of the weapon are all trained one by one, during which he practiced with Zhang Fu many times, the knife, shield, palladium, The moves of the spear have been simplified a lot, and during this period, the use of firearms has also been added, and the five weapons of the original Yin and Yang formation have been combined with each other, which has improved a lot compared to the previous formation, and the lethality is much greater.
……
It took a few days like this, and after hand-selecting a group of soldiers to skillfully use the yin and yang formation, he handed over this task to Jin Yixiao to be responsible, and these days he ate and slept with the soldiers, and the soldiers saw that he was a general, but he shared the joys and sorrows with himself, and he had a little more respect in his heart, that is, the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion who hated him before also changed a lot of views of him, and many soldiers admired him.
In this way, a few more days passed, and on this morning he was sleeping soundly in the tent, when he suddenly heard the sound of fighting outside one after another, and he was surprised, and rushed to the training ground after dressing up, and saw that the two teams of men and horses on the training ground were in a formation to fight, and for a while the dust was flying, and the sound of horses' hooves was everywhere, and it was accompanied by the sound of chariots.
"Could it be that he joined the chariot——?" Yang Zheng muttered, rubbing his sleepy eyes and walking over.
Jin Yixiao in the crowd was the first to see him, and hurriedly ran over, hugged his fists and said, "General, you're awake!"
Yang Zheng glanced at him, and said in his heart: "Your mother, can you still sleep with such a big move?"
Uh-huh, he asked, "What's going on?"
Before the words fell, someone suddenly heard a humane: "General Yang, you are here, how do you see how I have changed this formation?"
Yang Zheng was slightly shocked when he heard the change in the formation, and hurriedly raised his head to look at the training ground, just now it was too far away to take a closer look, at this time, he saw that the soldiers in the Shenji Battalion and the ancient city on the entire training ground each had 300 people, and there were 200 cavalrymen, all of whom had swords, guns and sticks, a pair of yin and yang formations, and in the crowd, there were five or two chariots in the formation of stragglers.
"It's really a chariot——? Yang Zheng muttered, and then looked at it and found that this chariot was strange. The shape is similar to that of a folk cart. The difference lies in the fact that there are box boards on both sides of the trunk of the folk cart, while this kind of chariot has only eight foldable screens, a total of 15 feet long, which is usually placed flat on the wheel, and is opened and erected behind one wheel to replace the cartridge during combat, which is extremely strange.
Zhang Fu said with a smile: "This chariot is called a "partial box car", which is a kind of chariot with a protective plate for both offensive and defensive purposes. It can be combined with obstacles such as deer and horse rejection to form a chariot battalion to prevent the enemy from raiding, and under the cover of the guard, the bow and crossbow can be fired from the arrow window of the guard, and the attack can be advanced "and fight forward". He had defeated the Qiang army with this kind of chariot, which was very powerful, and I thought about it for a few days, and it was the most suitable for the Yin and Yang formation. Zhang Fu said with joy on his face, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the chariot!
Yang Zheng didn't expect Zhang Fu to get the chariot so quickly, and it was also used in the formation, and while he admired it in his heart, he couldn't help but have some expectations.
After Zhang Fu said eagerly in his heart, he began to beckon the soldiers on both sides to start the exercise, after the changed Yin and Yang array, 300 infantry, 200 cavalry, 5 chariots, 5 light chariots, the Shenji battalion in the greeting of the stragglers, first with cavalry in front of the enemy, so that the chariots can have enough time to form a battle formation. When the enemy approached, the cavalry retreated into the chariot formation. The number of enemy cavalry is less than one hundred, the mixed brigade refuses to engage in battle, only a large number of enemy cavalry entering the range of firearms, feather arrows, strong crossbows, and fire guns begin to shoot, and it is not chaotic for a while, after a fight, the magnificent stragglers just now, but a moment of effort, the screams of the soldiers are endless, Yang Zheng is secretly surprised in his eyes, this transformed formation is so powerful, Qi Jiguang failed to fight with the Mongols, I don't know if the transformed formation can stop his cavalry when it meets the Mongolian Tartars.
……
After some practice, knowing that at sunset, I suddenly heard a neighing of horses, everyone followed the sound to the city gate, only to see a few horses at the city gate, Yang Zheng glanced at Zhang Fu and saw that he shook his head, strange in his heart, suddenly saw behind the horses, Yang Shiqi and Gao Hang slowly entered a horse, Yang Shiqi saw the two, beckoned on the horse, and then waved the horsewhip and galloped, leaving Gao Hang to greet those horses into the training ground.
"Brother Yang, what are you doing?" Yang Zheng said curiously.
Yang Shiqi glanced at the two sides of the battlefield fighting, twisted his long beard and laughed for a while: "Some time ago, didn't you two discuss the transformation of the Yin and Yang formation, the old man heard that firearms can increase the power, this is not relying on the old man's official position as the secretary of the military department, to get you some good things?"
"Good things——?" Yang Zheng and Zhang Fu each glanced at each other, their eyes full of doubts.
At this time, the horses urged by Gao Hang also came to the training ground, and a few soldiers had already stepped forward to help unload the goods, Yang Zheng and Zhang Fu stepped forward to inspect curiously, only to see that among the goods, it was not grain and grass, nor knives, guns and clubs, but a handcuff.
Although handcuffs from Zhu Di became emperor, there were many developments, and he took advantage of the favorable conditions such as the developed handicraft industry, mining and metallurgical industry to provide technology and raw materials, and vigorously promoted the development of handicraft manufacturing industry. According to the needs and possibilities of the time, the developers of firearms also focused their research on the improvement of the structure of the handcuffs, the improvement of quality, the increase of varieties, the improvement of performance, and the enhancement of power, so that the handcuffs have developed by leaps and bounds and become the standard equipment of the Ming army, but most of these weapons are used in the Shenji Battalion, and ordinary soldiers have no chance to see them used alive.
Yang Shiqi said: "The Yin and Yang Formation is a rare good formation, if it can be successfully improved and used on the battlefield, it will make a meritorious contribution to my Ming Dynasty in the future, and it can be regarded as a meritorious service of the old man?"
Zhang Fu already thought that the transformed formation lacked firearms, and the lethality was not enough to fight, but when he saw these firearms and transformed them, the Yin and Yang Formation would love perfection even more, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
At the moment, the yin and yang formations integrated into chariots, cavalry vehicles, firearms, knives, guns and clubs, rattan cards, palladium, and wolf stalks were rehearsed, and so on for more than a month, until the transformed formation soldiers were skillful and gradually exerted their power, and then they gave up.
On this day, there was a heavy snowfall outside the ancient city of Hangzhou, snowflakes fluttering, Yang Zheng saw the fluttering snowflakes, only to realize that he had left the Peng family for almost two months, and he had eaten and slept with a group of big-headed soldiers for two months, it was a miracle, he himself secretly admired himself in his heart, and then he remembered that in the two months that he was not in the Peng family, what were the eldest and second ladies doing, did they think about themselves, Yan'er's girl since the last time she sent a wisp of green silk to show her intentions, she never said a word, but Shen Yanqiu, From time to time, Satsuki sent some words of condolence——?"
You can't think about everything, especially thinking about this thing, once you think about it, it's like a raging tide. I can't wait to put on my wings and fly back immediately.
After waiting for a few days, explaining some things, and Yang Shiqi, Gao Hang and others said a few words, they packed up their things and began to leave, Yang Shiqi saw that he was going back, for fear that he would forget to spend the New Year, and he was going to Jinling, so he asked for it, and Zhang Fu liked him more and more, and bluntly said that he would stay in the army, but he politely refused, and after some preparations, one person and one horse went out of the ancient city of Hangzhou and rushed to Peng's house.
After most of the day, I faintly saw the gate of the Peng family at sunset, and I only felt that at this moment, this familiar compound seemed to have left me for a long time.
"Eldest Miss, Second Miss, Mrs. Peng...... Your Hua'an is back——?" He shouted a few times, grabbed the reins of his horse with all his might, and rushed towards the Peng family's compound with a hard thrust.
When I got to the gate of the compound, I turned over and dismounted, tied the horse to a big tree on the left side, took off the burden from the horse, and was about to enter!"
……
Suddenly, a person stepped forward and shouted: "Bold, this is the Peng family's compound, who are you, dare to trespass?"
Yang Zheng looked up, only to see that the man had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and he looked like he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, staring at Yang Zheng who walked in with his head down with a pair of good-looking eyes.
Yang Zheng sneered and said, "Lao Tzu has only been away for two months, and the Peng family has changed the rules?" muttered and said, "This little brother, do you know who I am?"
The man stuck his waist and shouted, "It doesn't matter who you are, in short, you can't enter the Peng family's compound!"
