In the twelfth year of Zuo Chuan Xuangong, King Chuzhuang said: "Wu has seven virtues - prohibition of violence, soldiers, protection of the great, determination of merit, peace of the people, harmony of the people, and wealth of the people." ”

Chen Mu didn't know if there were really mystical martial virtues circulating in the world, but it was very easy for him to materialize martial virtues, and the easiest way was to materialize them into four.

It is soldiers, cavalry, boats, and cannons.

Bai Mei's four hooves slowly stepped across the green grass of the Beiyang Cavalry School Field, the black chain armor on her sturdy chest collided with the leather pad behind it and made a crisp sound, and seven red tassels fluttered down, and the horse face and body were also covered with armor, but the thickest protection was still the front chest and neck, and the rest of the place was more decorated than armor.

It is rumored that Jing Haibo can be invincible in the battlefield, and he should be born with a leopard's head and eyes, three heads and six arms, and he can scare the enemy into retreating just by standing in front of the battle with the appearance of a fierce general.

There are very few people who know that he can bruise his arm with a big gun on horseback.

This is just like the armor on Bai Mei's body, most of it is used for decoration, because Chen Mu knows very well that if the battle situation is so bad that he can't run, if he really wants to fight in person, then it will not be able to turn the situation around by getting him a five-nine.

"Chen Shuai's hair ......" Wei Rushu, the commander from the Shandong Metropolitan Division, stood on the side of the school yard with the intention of apprenticeship and pilgrimage, and stood beside Shen Zonglian, the senior brother who escorted the baggage from Nanyang, looking at Chen Mu, who was slowly pacing around the obstacles on the vast school field, and asked Shen Zonglian thoughtfully: "This, I haven't heard that Chen Shuai was tortured, what's the matter?" ”

Bai Mei's body shape is different from that of the war horse in the country, which is eye-catching, especially the luxurious decoration of the armor is more beloved by the warriors, but the most eye-catching thing is Chen Mu on horseback, wearing an engraved lion pattern general breastplate, and each piece of armor with an iron arm has an inscription, the ninth chapter of the Tao Te Ching on the left arm, and the two paragraphs of the Art of War on the right arm, all of which are written by Zhao Shizhen, but these are nothing compared to Chen Mu's hair.

His hat was on the horse's hips, and the red tassels were tossed and turned with the white horse's pace, and the untied scarf seemed to show off the short and finely shredded hair on his head.

Shen Zonglian came over not only to escort the baggage, but Gao Gong also asked him to send a few Westerners who looked similar to Xiyi, and handed them over to Chen Mu for good care.

Hearing Wei Rushu's question, his expression was also a little strange, but his strange expression was more of a deep admiration, he pointed to the pagoda-like building being built outside the Beiyang Yamen and said: "Master's hair should be placed there, and the hair of those recruits on the infantry school field should also be there, called Jiguo Tower." ”

"Jiguo Tower?"

"Well, the Sending Tower." Shen Zonglian pointed his finger at the tower under construction and said, "Stay in the tower and send your body to the country." ”

"Master said that their army is different from the usual recruitment, it lasts for five years, it bears heavy responsibilities, it is different from the proximity of the South Seas, and it is unpredictable to go to sea for thousands of miles to live and die, and it is difficult to return, so as to send it to the country is not only safe, but also shows the heart of the country." Shen Zonglian said with a heavy bow of his own heart, and said: "After five years, they will return to their hometown in fine clothes and grow long hair." ”

"Now that the wise generals are so righteous soldiers, how can they not win? When the troops are dispatched, from the commanders and generals to the flag officers and soldiers, their families can enter the Jiguo Tower to pray to the heavens for them," Shen Zonglian shook his head and sighed, and said: "This is about what Master always said that the army should have a sense of honor." ”

Wei Rushu, who came to learn the scriptures, heard the word honor, had his own understanding, and nodded: "Chen Shuai's book has concluded the essentials of the classics, and I have read them one by one, and I have my own understanding, but not everyone can use it, but this shaving is indeed feasible." ”

are all commanders, Wei Rushu naturally saw that Chen Mu was a big fool, what kind of words like sending his body to the country, just like Qi Jiguang's blood alliance with the soldiers, are all means to enhance the cohesion of the soldiers under his command.

The means are not very clever, but the people who can combine the inappropriate means with the purpose of enhancing the combat power of the soldiers are very clever in Wei Rushu's eyes.

"Just having the soldiers shave their hair can make the recruits work for the country, which ...... Chen Shuai is really a soldier. ”

While the two were chatting, Chen Mu was sometimes galloping on his horse, sometimes galloping on his horse, taking all kinds of weapons from the starting point of the demarcated route again and again, and attacking the armored target again and again.

spears, short spears, and swords for stabbing attacks; short sabers and eyebrow knives for slashing; smashed bones, chains; Shooting with a riding gun, a handcuff, a crossbow, and a bow.

He used it more than three times - his own test rules were one fast and one slow to test the appropriate horse speed, but when it came to shooting weapons, it was more embarrassing, even at a distance of twenty paces, he could not hit every time, and he had to start again.

The gun was fired five times, and the crossbow was fired seven times, but the handcuff was probably used much more to pass smoothly.

But by the time of the three tests of the bow riding, he had run the horse eight times round.

It was autumn, the pampered Bai Mei's body fat had just fallen, and it was the time when she could run, Chen Mu was in a hot sweat on horseback, but the war horse didn't even sweat, and when he turned over and dismounted the horse to spread the reins, people looked at him and snorted, and went to the school field by himself and then strolled.

"These weapons are good, but the horsepower is limited, you flag officers remember how I tested it, right? Test sequentially. Chen Mu shook his head slightly, not wanting to affect the flag officer's test, and did not say his favorite weapon in his heart, but said: "The total weight of the cavalry's weapons is limited to eighteen catties. ”

He took the sweat towel from Juniper's hand, drank a few sips of warm water, and instructed the flag officer to put on the Mongolian healthy horse test weapon purchased from Koushi by the horseman, and after taking a few steps, he said to Juniper: "I think it is better to bring a saber, a golden gourd, a big gun, and two handcuffs." ”

"My subordinates think it's all the same." Juniper took the sweat towel and handed it to the servant, he felt that as long as Chen Mu let him go to the battlefield, he could cut out a street façade for his hometown with any weapon, and said with a smile: "Anyway, I definitely don't bring a riding bow." ”

Chen Mu was writing down something in his notes, and when he heard this, he turned his head and glared at Lai, and said, "Do you think my bow skills are not good?" ”

"The subordinates don't dare." Du Heizi hugged his fists in a serious manner, and said in righteous words, "Although the recruits come from different sources, there are not many who can surpass Chen Shuai in riding skills, and there are not many who can surpass Chen Shuai in archery. ”

"What's wrong with foot archery, I learned it from riding archery, and I practiced it...... Not to mention riding and shooting, it is much easier to ride a horse and release a gun. ”

Testing weapons is actually a particularly embarrassing thing for Chen Mu, he is not a traditional military general like Juniper who can dance with a big gun and shoot a bow, and his ability to practice from childhood to adulthood is incomparable, his strength is in firearms, but even if he is amazing, it will not make others feel special, but if other weapons make a slight mistake, others will feel - Oh! This Chen Shuai won't!

Du Heizi's small eyes were enough to explain the situation, Chen Mu felt that his personal soldier captain was telling him with his eyes that he could stab ten Chen Mu with a big gun on a horse, and he could shoot down twenty Chen Mu with a riding bow.

But even Juniper wouldn't want to fight Chen Mu alone, he heard that there was an old bishop in Haojing who was angry with Chen Mu in the past and wanted to duel him, but the sword was knocked off by the handcuffs.

In the art of dueling, this is a scoundrel with a firearm!
