"Although this is only twenty steps, how long does it take to build a crossbow with such power? And look at this gun. Although it requires more steps to operate than a crossbow, it is technically superior.

It's too simple.

From a farmer who only knows how to farm to a qualified archer, it takes a year or two, let alone a long time. If you are an elite archer, it may take three years, but you have also tried this musket just now.

, an army can be formed in one month!”

Ma Qiang pointed out the biggest advantage of the musketeers, which is the speed of forming an army. A musketeer who spent a month training can easily defeat a samurai who has been trained for more than five years.

"Brother Xiao Ma, why don't you use such a good weapon when you challenge Dong?" Guo Jin asked strangely.

"It's very simple, ordinary people are not guilty, but Huaibi is guilty! Not to mention that this musket is still being improved, let's just say that once this musketeer comes out, it will definitely shock the world. If I use it when I challenge Dong, I will be dead that night.

It won’t be Kong Ni who attacks Sun Jian or Liu Dai who kills Qiao Mao, but the fourteen princes who jointly attack me!”

Ma Qiang held the steel gun, smiled and said, "I will give you 600 sergeants. These 600 people are all old men in our Red Star Battalion and are our most loyal brothers. You can train these 600 people for me as musketeers."

, then you go to Youzhou and defend the Red Star Camp.

Now that Gongsun Zan has arrived in Changping, although he may not invade the Red Star Camp in the short term, as time goes by, he will definitely invade. When the time comes, you will lead the musketeers to teach him a lesson!

By the way, I’ve already given you a name for your camp, it’s called Shenji Camp!”

"Shenji Camp?" Guo Jin murmured and repeated, nodded and said with a smile, "What a name!"

"The Divine Machine Camp? Brother Xiao Ma, are you praising my skill in seizing the Divine Machine?" Yue Yangtian asked shamelessly at the side.

"I see that you want to do the questions! Also, when you make me a machine gun that can fire a hundred rounds at a time, let's talk about this clever machine!"

"A hundred rounds? More shots?" Yue Yang stuck out his tongue, not daring to say anything else.

"In one month, three hundred guns will be given to Guo Jin. Guo Jin, when the time comes, you will work in pairs and take turns learning how to shoot. You would rather wait for the gun than wait for the gun!"

Guo Jin nodded and said, "Brother Ma, don't worry, I understand!"

Ma Qiang went on to explain in detail some of the key points for forming an army of musketeers. Of course, what he said were all things he heard from hearsay, and he didn’t know if they were right or wrong. But even so, in this era of the second century AD,

It’s a scorpion’s shit—the only one!

"By the way, how is the artillery?" Ma Qiang looked at Yue Yang.

"Go away!" Yue Yang ran out without looking back. Ma Qiang and Guo Jin couldn't help laughing.

"Read the newspaper, read the newspaper! Read Dong's secret affairs, and you will know the world's major events!!"

"Read the newspaper! Read the newspaper! Come and read the newspaper! The reporters who accompanied the army brought first-hand information. Those who wanted to know why Dong's thieves moved west came to read the newspaper!!"

"Jiao Cishi lost consecutive battles and retreated to Licheng! Prime Minister Ma ordered Zhao Zilong to lead the cavalry to the rescue!!!"

In today's Pingyuan City, the shouts of countless children suddenly rang out. Passers-by found that the streets were particularly lively today. Children in uniforms were carrying schoolbags full of newspapers, waving a newspaper in their hands, and hawking along the road.

stand up.

"How much? Give me one!"

"I want it too! Give me one!!"

Pingyuan Monthly has long been spread all over Pingyuan. Many people know that the students at Pingyuan College are tinkering with this thing. This official publication has made these people hungry.

In the tavern, no one was chatting or laughing. They were all listening to the invited gentleman read the "Plains Monthly"

"That night, the governor of Yuzhou, Kong Min, was dissatisfied with Sun Jian's seizure of the city of Yuzhou, so he joined forces with Zhang Yang to attack his stronghold..."

The gentleman above was reading the newspaper, while the people below were whispering, including students from the former Taixue and Hongdu colleges who were brought to Pingyuan by Ma Qiang this time.

"No wonder Governor Kong wanted to attack Marquis Wucheng at night. That's what happened."

"If it weren't for this newspaper, everyone wouldn't know the secrets!"

"These princes said they were going to save His Majesty, but from what I heard, it was basically our Prime Minister who was fighting! They were all watching from behind!"

"Hey! It's a pity that the princes fought in chaos that night in Luoyang, otherwise they might have saved His Majesty!"

There was a lot of discussion in the tavern. The three people sitting in the corner all held newspapers in their hands. One of them put the newspaper down and said with a smile, "With this, Ma Pingyuan can control half of the world's tongue!"

The person opposite shook his head and said, "The world's most talked-about people are the scholars. Ma Pingyuan underestimates the nobles too much. It will not last long..."

The third person's mind seemed to be on the fine wine, with his eyes closed and he was constantly reminiscing.

These three people are all young, the oldest is less than thirty, and the youngest has not even grown a beard.

"Wen Ruo, you went to Yingchuan and persuaded us to go out for a walk with you. This plain is the most stable and novel along the way. I am very interested in Ma Pingyuan!" The person who spoke first asked with a smile.

"Zhicai, Fengxiao, I saw that Yingchuan was about to become a war-torn place, so I advised you to leave. Why don't you recognize my kindness?"

These three people were Xun Yu, Xi Zhong and Guo Jia. Xun Yu abandoned his official position and returned to his hometown after Dong Zhuo ordered to move westward. After arriving in Yingchuan, he found Xi Zhong and Guo Jia and invited them to leave Yingchuan to find the Ming Dynasty.

host.

At this time, Xun Yu was only twenty-eight years old, and Guo Jia was not yet twenty.

All three of them are young and energetic, and all of them are heroes of the moment!

"Wenruo felt that Ma Pingyuan looked down on the nobles too much and could not last long. Could it be that he valued Yuan Benchu, the fourth generation and the third prince?" Guo Jia took another sip of wine and asked with a hint of drunkenness.

Xun Yu nodded and said, "My brother Xun Chen is working as an adviser to Yuan Bohai. He is the fourth and third prince of the Yuan family. He has disciples and former officials all over the world. He is also the leader of the Allied Forces. He is naturally the best choice to help the world!"

"But it's fun here~" Guo Jia looked at the gentleman standing on the stage reading the newspaper and said, "Yuan Shaona, is it as fun as here? It's just that the women are a little less sexy, but it's a pity~"

Hearing what Guo Jia said, Xi Zhong and Xun Yu both looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

This Guo Jia is talented, but he likes to play with the world. He drinks and has sex every day and is not afraid of losing his life.

"The fun is secondary. I'm afraid Qingzhou will be captured by Ma Pingyuan. If Ma Pingyuan captures Qingzhou and then captures Bohai, it will be connected to Youzhou. Its power will not be small!" Xi Zhong smiled and said, "Hebei will be in the future.

, I’m afraid it’s a competition between the Yuan family and the Ma family.”

"I heard that these two had fought before, but Ma Qiang was better!" Guo Jia looked at Xun Yu and expressed that he was more optimistic about Ma Qiang.
