The days still pass day by day, Li Zixiao is busy in the cottage all day long, running around all day long, either staring at his subordinates to practice, or going to see the blacksmith to see the construction of the spear head, or leading people to go back to the mountains to cut down wood and build the cottage.

This Spring Festival is approaching soon, this is the first year that Li Zixiao has traveled to this era, how can he do it well, and he will have a New Year's appearance.

These two days; Li Zixiao has been waiting for Zhang Ergouzi to send back the news, waiting to trade with the Cai family, and he has not been idle in the past two days, renovating the cottage and naming it "White Snake Village".

It's a very LOW name when I hear it, there is no way who makes Li Zixiao a big boss, he says it's called this name, who can say no?

Li Zixiao is mainly because of the legend that Mangdang Mountain is the place where Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, beheaded the White Snake Uprising, so he simply named his cottage 'White Snake Village', which is just a bad taste, and has no other meaning.

In the past two days, Li Zixiao has been running to the back mountain with a few carpenters, I don't know what they are tinkering with, this morning when Zhou Dazhu and they continued to practice with the soldiers, Li Zixiao took a few carpenters and carried a large bundle of things to the school field.

"Come, come, stop the training first, Dazhu, Wei Hong, Liu Chong, bring your respective teams over."

As soon as Li Zixiao came to the playground and saw that everyone was training in full swing, he nodded with satisfaction, and then said to Zhou Dazhu and others.

After Li Zixiao asked the carpenters to put down the things they carried, everyone took a look and realized that Li Zixiao had sent a large bundle of spears with a length similar to the height of ordinary people.

The barrel of each spear is made of locally sourced mountain wood, which is dense, heavy, and relatively hard.

However, these spears were more like spears, and each pole had a sharp spear tip, which was much shorter than the spear they used.

After a while, Old Master Wei took a few people to carry a bundle of wooden sticks to the field, put it in front of Li Zixiao, and after giving the salute, he retreated to the side of the school field, and quickly erected a few straw men next to the school field.

Everyone saw that this bundle of things turned out to be long wooden sticks, about four meters long, nearly one meter or so beyond the barrel of the spear they were using in their hands at the moment, and they didn't know what Li Zixiao was going to do with these things.

"Brothers, you must have wondered what we were doing when you saw that I had been running back to the mountains with my carpenters for the past two days, but today you will know the answer.

You can see now, and this is the result of my busy two days with the carpenters. Li Zixiao pointed to the bundles of guns placed on the school grounds.

After speaking, Li Zixiao directly pulled out one of the bundle of short guns and said to everyone: "You must be very puzzled, you will find that the gun in my hand is very weird, the gun is short, and the gun head is so weird, it doesn't look like a long gun at all."

That's right, this is not a spear, but a throwing gun, this kind of throwing gun is not for you to use to fight with the enemy, but for you to throw it to kill the enemy, just like human hunting in primitive times, I will show you. ”

After speaking, Li Zixiao bent down and untied the straw rope that tied the throwing gun, grabbed a throwing gun casually, turned around and twisted his waist, ran two or three steps, and suddenly threw the throwing gun.

Li Zixiao's arm was full of strength, and his movements were quite standardized, but this was the result of his hard practice for a long time, and the throwing spear flew out after he threw it hard.

The spear made a graceful arc in the air, and with a "poof" sound, it passed through a straw man thirty paces away, nailed to a wooden board behind the straw man, and the barrel of the spear was still trembling slightly.

When everyone saw this effect, they couldn't help but take a breath of cool air, and said in their hearts: My God, the strength of the big boss is really great, and he can actually throw this throwing gun at such a long distance.

At the same time, everyone saw that the spear passed through the straw man, pierced the wooden board behind it, and entered the wood for three points, and the barrel of the gun trembled slightly, thinking that if this shot was pierced on the person, the end would be miserable!

Li Zixiao was very satisfied with his demonstration this time, the thirty steps distance was not close, and he still accurately hit the humanoid target, which was not bad, and the previous half a day of hard work did not seem to be in vain.

After making this perfect demonstration, Li Zixiao turned his head and continued to say to many subordinates: "Everyone has seen that this thing is such a usage, it is very simple and the effect is good, but it is not easy to learn.

From today onwards, I will select some of you who have the most strength to train you to throw this kind of throwing gun, which requires that you can throw at least twenty paces away and accurately hit the straw man's target.

The reason why I let you practice this, you also know that our cottage now has no archers, and long-range attacks are a shortcoming, which is a great loss on the battlefield.

But we can't get too many longbows in our cottage now, and even if we do, I don't expect you to be able to become a marksman in a short time, so I can only give up archers for the time being.

I still have to find a way to make up for the shortcomings of our long-range attacks, which reminds me of the most primitive weapon used by our ancestors in hunting, throwing guns!

Practicing throwing a spear is much easier than practicing a bow and arrow, and it's more powerful than a bow and arrow, as long as you can hit the enemy, don't worry about hitting there, and make sure he loses combat on the spot.

The only pity is that this throwing gun is a bit close, but as long as you practice this, you will deal more damage to the enemy than your opponent's bow and arrow. ”

Li Zixiao said to everyone, in fact, to get this throwing gun, it was also Li Zixiao's helpless move at this time, he didn't have archers, and he couldn't make firearms, in order to make up for the lack of long-range attacks, he could only temporarily do this expedient measure.

Li Zixiao remembered that in his previous life, he had read it on the Internet, saying that the Xiliang infantry during the Three Kingdoms period was not good at bows and crossbows, but they were good at using collective throwing throwing guns, which may have been influenced by the throwing guns from the West, and their combat effectiveness was quite strong at that time.

This situation is somewhat similar to Li Zixiao's current situation, his subordinates are not equipped with bows and crossbows, so if you want to have a certain medium and long-range attack ability, you can only choose this kind of throwing gun.

So Li Zixiao took the carpenters to tinker with the guns in the back mountains in the past two days, speaking of throwing guns, this kind of attack weapon can be said to be the earliest hunting weapon used by human beings, and it can even be traced back to primitive humans.

Now with the progress of human civilization, it seems that there are few people who use throwing guns in all dynasties, and now Li Zixiao seems to have some historical regression when he says this.

But at the moment, Li Zixiao really has no choice, he really wants to let all his subordinates not be equipped with machine guns, and when the time comes, when the time comes, they will only care about a burst of fire, and kill as many enemies as they come, but is this possible?

In fact, what Li Zixiao wants to equip his subordinates most at this time is a bird gun that can be regarded as a 'musket' in this era, but at the moment, this kind of thing is just looking at the moon in the water, and it is unattainable.

Therefore, Li Zixiao, who was really forced to be helpless, could only use this most primitive long-distance attack method, but this kind of spear attack is indeed very powerful.

Then, Li Zixiao pointed to another bundle of long wooden poles next to him and said, "This bundle of wooden poles on the ground is actually a new gun barrel that we are about to reequip."

From this day onwards, you will all be trained with this kind of spear, and you will remove the heads from your original spears and reattach them to them.

This kind of gun is longer, and only when we face the opponent's spearmen on the battlefield can we seize the opportunity and be invincible, inch long and inch strong.

Now the captains of each team have come out of the ranks, received your guns, and immediately began to replace them, Zhou Dazhu, Wei Hong, and Liu Chong, the three of you, each selected twenty of the most powerful soldiers from their own teams, and trained them to throw throwing guns. ”

As Li Zixiao finished speaking, the team leaders came out one after another, walked up to Li Zixiao, received the guns on the ground, took them back and distributed them to their subordinates, and began to change the gun heads.

Looking at his subordinates at this time, Li Zixiao couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart, this is his own team, and it is also the capital to save his life in the troubled times at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but now it seems that it is still too shabby, and he still needs to continue to work hard!

It can be said that Li Zixiao used the management methods of the modern army in later generations in terms of training and combat, but the equipment under his command was extremely shabby, and he could not even meet the requirements of this era, which made Li Zixiao quite depressed.

Now the main training types in the cottage are pikemen and sword and shield soldiers, since defeating Liu Dabao, Li Zixiao also realized that there are a little fewer sword and shield soldiers, and increased the number and training of sword and shield soldiers.

It can be said that there is no problem with the training of sword and shield soldiers and pikemen, but Li Zixiao has no experience in the training of cavalry and scouts.

But fortunately, there is Liu Chongzai, this guy used to be the night of the Ming border army, Li Zixiao simply handed over the task of training scouts to him, and now there are a total of four war horses in the cottage, Li Zixiao decided to give priority to the use of scouts.

In this way, after Li Zixiao waited for Liu Chong's scout training, he sent all of them out and began to collect all kinds of intelligence within dozens of miles nearby.

Li Zixiao's understanding of the surrounding situation is still too vague, and now as Li Zixiao's subordinates become stronger and stronger, of course he does not allow the existence of bandit forces around him who can threaten him.

At the same time, Li Zixiao also asked the scouts to focus on collecting the situation of some landlords and old fortune Zhuangzi within dozens of miles around, and Li Zixiao can't always sit and eat empty mountains!

Since Li Zixiao is a bandit at this time, he has to be 'dedicated', he doesn't rob ordinary people, but those landlords and rich people are indeed the objects he covets the most, who makes them have more oil and water!

Li Zixiao and his subordinates eat a huge amount of grain every day with more than 300 mouths, and at this time it is approaching the end of the year, he has to find a way to get some pork or something back, so that the cottage can have a more comfortable New Year.
