Chapter 221 Formation of the Musket Battalion

Yang Yichuan had talked so much with Lin Tu and Li Ru, so Lin Tu could rest assured to set up the Musket Battalion.First of all, it is not to assess the soldiers' physical fitness, basic ability, etc., but to assess the innocent and more loyal people.

This musket was originally a dangerous weapon, used well it could protect the country, but if it fell into the hands of malicious people, it would be a disaster.

However, these things did not cause much trouble to Lin Tu. It was just a small assessment, just selecting some people, and it could be completed in a few days.At the same time, the Firearms Bureau is stepping up the production of this musket. Although this musket has been successfully developed, it is still relatively slow to produce.

Yang Yichuan reckoned that it would take about half a month to arm a [-]-man gun team.But first get the people together, and produce some first to ensure training.

Five days later, Lin Tu came to the mansion to report to Yang Yichuan about the Musket Battalion, and Yang Yichuan just listened carefully.

"Your Highness, according to His Highness' request, 200 people have been selected first to form a musket battalion."

"It's done when it's finished, and they will be separated in the future. At that time, they will train independently and be assigned to patrol independently. In terms of training, it is better to follow the plan formulated by you, and the content should include what I said. gone."

"It includes musket training, close-combat sword training, and equestrian training. As for what needs to be added, General Lin, you can add as much as you like."

"Okay, I'll make it up when I go back."

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

"There are two more things. The first thing is the content of the musket training, and the second is the equipment of the musket. Now the musket battalion has been established, but there is not even a musket."

"It's not urgent, muskets are made every day, and some have been made now, take them back and let them start training."

"Okay, I'll go to the Firearms Bureau in the afternoon to bring back the muskets produced. However, I hope His Highness can teach me this training method and teach these soldiers."

"Okay, let me talk about the combat method of this musket battle first, and then train according to the combat method."

"Let me tell you about this combat method first..." Yang Yichuan began to draw strokes with Lin Tu as he talked. Lin Tu's learning and acceptance ability was quite strong.Yang Yichuan said a lot, but most of them were based on Yang Yichuan's relatively simple understanding, plus his own speculation.

As a veteran general, Lin Tu also gave a lot of suggestions and expressed his own thoughts.So the two were more interested in discussing, and finally discussed for about a morning, and finally formulated the preliminary training content.

"After discussing for so long, it's already noon, why don't you stay and have lunch together?"

"That's not necessary. If there is only His Highness alone, it's fine for me to stay for dinner, but His Highness has a family now. I'm a rough man, so forget it."

"Well, I won't keep any more. As for the guns sent over, there will be an independent training place as agreed before, and there will be a warehouse for storing guns and ammunition."

"The training ground has been set up, the warehouse still needs time, and the separate camp for the Musketeers still needs time."

"It's okay, take your time, just have a training place first."

Yang Yichuan sent Lin Tu away. In the afternoon, Lin Tu would send people from the Firearms Battalion to the Firearms Bureau to get the firearms.Then he officially announced the establishment of the Musket Battalion, and Yang Yichuan would also go to see the people in the Musket Battalion.

Just like the establishment of the Xihe Army at the beginning, after World War I last year, there are some boundaries now, but the boundaries are not so obvious.The main reason was that there were too few people, so Lin Tu simply took a piece with him for training.Of course, there is still this limit. Some people are unwilling to charge forward and just want to defend the city. Yang Yichuan and Lin Tu have no choice.

In the afternoon, Lin Tu took the people from the Musketeer Battalion to the new school grounds.This new school ground was originally for the training of the Xihe Army, but the core part of it was only built this year, and there are still many things that have not been completed. For example, there are no camps near the school ground, and there are no warehouses. It was a bare school field.

Yang Yichuan also planned to slowly move all the members of the city guards here to train in this new school.This time, the people from the Musket Battalion were brought over for training, and it was just a one-time experience of the new school field.

This time, only 200 people were selected and formed into a musketry battalion. Although the number was still a little small, it was still an attempt.This is just the first step to promote muskets. Yang Yichuan is not in a hurry. Although summer is coming soon, Yang Yichuan feels that there is still enough time.

During this winter and this spring, the Firearms Bureau is actually working hard.Not only is it vigorously producing artillery, but the current number of artillery can definitely arm the entire Xihe City.

In this new school field, the concrete floor is not completely paved here, there is a large part of the concrete floor, and the other part is normal soil. This is a lot of training methods in Yang Yichuan's impression.What crawling training, what training rope climbing and the like.

These more than 200 people have also experienced more than half a year of training. Before Yang Yichuan appeared, they all stood in a military posture.They all stand up straight, and the spirit is still very similar.

When Yang Yichuan came to the school grounds, it was already after taking a nap, and the sun wasn't too hot, so Yang Yichuan came in front of them.Compared with the so-called Xihe Army at the beginning, the people selected from the Musket Battalion can be said to be well-trained.

"Good afternoon, everyone, I think you all know me, so I won't introduce myself, just cut to the chase."

"You are all selected soldiers and good generals. More importantly, you are very loyal to the Dawei Dynasty. This makes me very pleased, so I selected you and formed the Musketeer Battalion."

"The musket battalion, as the name suggests, uses muskets. What you saw today are muskets. In the next time, you will all be equipped with muskets. This musket can be said to be a magic weapon similar to cannon. When it is in your hands, you It is necessary to use muskets to kill the Northern Plains people."

"These muskets are important, and you are also the first batch of warriors to use muskets, so you are also very important. I am very optimistic about the future of muskets and the role you will play in the future against the Beiyuan people."

"Train hard, and when the time comes, kill Beiyuan people to make achievements."

Yang Yichuan said it very plainly, but it still aroused everyone's excitement.

"Train hard and build success."

"Train hard and build success."

The shouts of these 200 people sounded in the new school grounds, and Yang Yichuan also retreated from the front, handing over the next task to Lin Tu.
