Chapter 837 A small scoop of cold water

Author: Dongfang Hong Bus

In the court, Chu Qing said to the emperor: "Emperor, I am willing to go to the northern border in person to be a vanguard official." He said that he was a vanguard official, not ordinary soldiers from the vanguard camp.

Zheng Chunqiu said, "Why are you a vanguard officer, not a soldier? If you are really open-minded, would you dare to be a soldier?"

At that time, I really showed my ugly face to the fullest.

Pioneer officers are at least officials, and they are relatively safe; while soldiers, especially soldiers who have never been on the battlefield, are like cannon fodder in Chuqing's world.

For war needs, the court will dispatch an advance force outside the main force, composed of elite forces, and undertake tactical responsibilities such as reconnaissance of terrain, enemy situation, people's conditions, animal resources, and launching a front-line charge.

The commander of this advance force is called the Pioneer Officer. The chief officer is called Du Pioneer, and the deputy is called Deputy Pioneer.

Du Pioneer played a very important role in the war, had a relatively high status, and was able to command an army independently, and often obeyed the commander directly.

However, both Du Pioneer and Deputy Pioneer are temporary military officers, and have no formal rank. They are established and appointed during dispatch and will be cancelled after the war is over.

Generally speaking, generals who serve as Du Pioneer and Deputy Pioneer have their original positions. What is the level of their original positions? What is their level.

Chu Qing was not a soldier, but because the Secret Investigation Department continued to use the military organization, he was considered a soldier.

But with her position as a fifth-rank deputy, even if she is not given a real position in the army, she will be fine as a martial arts officer like a Ranger General.

Zheng Chunqiu was extremely malicious at that time and wanted to use one sentence to get Chu Qing's official position to the end, with his extremely sinister intentions.

But I don’t know if the emperor didn’t hear it or took it seriously, but Zheng Chunqiu just failed.

Since Chu Qing took the initiative to serve as a pioneer officer, he naturally had to have his own personal guard, and Xu Nianping had no idea about this.

And that's the same thing, Xu Nianping thought Chu Qing was a good person just for mustard.

So after Xu Nianping finished his meal, he didn't make a rest, so he continued to go to the southern border to find General Xue Zhenghao to get equipment.

The young man is very serious and responsible.

Chu Qing also rushed to 108 villages without stopping.

It took twenty-two days on the way back from Kyoto. I wonder what preparations Xiaobao had made, so Chu Qing was eager to meet with Xiaobao.

Wei Chengyi said that Song Tingshan could delay for six or seven days, which means that if Xiaobao's arrangement is not sufficient, Chu Qing still has six or seven days to adjust.

But in six or seven days, in a world where there are no cars for transportation, major adjustments are difficult to complete.

******************

"Mom!" Xiaobao plunged into Chu Qing's arms like a little leopard, almost knocking Chu Qing to the corner.

The child is growing up and has always been independent again. Suddenly, he acts like this little child, which shows how worried he is about his mother.

Chu Qing hugged Xiaobao tightly.

After several days of worry, although Xiaobao was very safe to send a message to him, Chu Qing could not really feel relieved.

Only by holding her son tightly in her arms can she feel the truth.

The shoulders were quickly wet and hot.

There was once a very popular saying:

There is a manual for everything, but life does not. The cover is given by parents and the content is written by oneself. Therefore, there is no standard answer to this question in life. Whether it is exciting or not depends entirely on yourself;

Since you are destined to come to the world for a while, try it out if you are not careful. If you are not careful, try it out if you are not careful. Even if no one applauds you, remember to move forward gracefully and thank the self who has given no regrets.

Chu Qing once regarded this passage as a guideline, but now it seems that it is not the case.

People have parents and children. In the eyes of parents, they are not covers, but the pen that helps children write their lives.

Whether a child’s life is exciting or not depends entirely on himself, but is directly related to the love and sense of security given by his parents.

Similarly, the sense of peace of mind that children give their parents also occupies a very important part of their parents' writing about their lives.

Personal efforts are necessary, but the strength drawn from family affection cannot be denied.

"Son, time is tight. Let's talk about the serious business first. How did you arrange our family?" Chu Qing adjusted his breathing and held back his tears.

But his hands were still holding Xiaobao's hand tightly, and he sat at the table with his hands in each other.

"Mom, we now have 500 iron-body 'conscience-free cannons' and 300 wooden-body 'conscience-free cannons';" Xiaobaohui reported: "There are still 500 clay pot mines..."

Chu Qing was shocked: "Our family has enough iron to do so much?"

Xiaobao nodded: "Enough, Grandpa Lu said that even the iron pots and iron plows in stock were melted, and he also asked someone to buy a lot from Jizhou;

Mother, I saw the barbed wire you asked Grandpa Lu to make, but I just didn’t know how to use it.”

In fact, when Master Lu was asked to make barbed wire at that time, it was just an idea, and Chu Qing was not sure what effect he could achieve.

Her idea was that the country of Vos is a soldier, and even women are good at riding and shooting, and they are very fierce. Compared with the Daxuan army, which is mainly infantry, the Vos cavalry is really dominant.

The biggest advantage of cavalry is mobility, and the specific manifestation is speed.

If you want to load the explosive pack and launch it, you will probably be in front of you.

Therefore, she asked for the production of barbed wire, with the intention of how to stop the cavalry and be beaten while standing.

Therefore, it should be possible to use barbed wire with a "conscienceless cannon".

But this is just thinking, without experience in actual combat, you will not be sure.

And it is a bit risky to implement it - if the barbed wire does not work, or if your own side has insufficient combat power and is defeated, aren’t those barbed wires just iron raw materials for free?

"Make a fence first." Chu Qing said: "At least let the cavalry slow down first so that our cannons can have room for actual combat."

To use barbed wire on the battlefield, a considerable amount of it is necessary.

If you use snake-belt wire, Chu Qing is worried that he will be jumped over by a horse or dragged over with the stinging pain, which will require many interceptions in succession, and Chu Qing feels that it is more wasteful than the fence type.

"Mom, there's this!" Xiaobao took out a flintlock rifle, "Grandpa Lu made it!"

Chu Qing's eyes lit up: "How much did you do?"

After taking Xiaobao's pistol, he found that there was no rifle inside. He was a little disappointed. Then he felt relieved: There was no bullet, so what rifle is required?

However, the prototype of the bullet was found, and Kang Xi wrapped black gunpowder in oil paper and made it into a "paper-packed bullet".

When using it, just pull off the tail of the "paper-pack bullet" with your teeth, pour out some of the gunpowder into the medicine pool of the flintlock gun, and when it is used to draw the gunpowder, then stuff the remaining paper-pack bullets and iron balls into the barrel and use "Tongbian" to stab it.

Chu Qing tried it and it took about half a minute to load ammunition to launch.

Half a minute...

Chu Qing once participated in the Worth race horse racing. It is estimated that the Worth horse in the sprint can run about two miles per minute. So, once the ammunition is loaded, the other person's horses have run for one mile.

Before arranging troops, it is important to understand these data, because it is directly related to the distribution and use of artillery, mines and grenades.

Xiaobao: "This one is only one short and twenty long, but Lao Yu and the others said that this thing is not as good as a crossbow."
