Chapter 129 Windfall
Archers, in addition to cavalry, are often the most lethal type of troops in an army, and they don't need much equipment.

Each archer only needs a bow and a bag of arrows. Other defensive equipment, secondary weapons, etc. are dispensable. Of course, archers can be equipped according to their own financial resources.

When Zhang Tie and others came outside the training ground for the archers, the policeman Jiang Jianhua was teaching the archers some taboos in using bows and arrows.

As for archers, only Zhang Tie and Jiang Jianhua in Biancheng County are good at using bows and arrows. As for the others, they can only draw bows. Naturally, they are not good at teaching recruits.

And Zhang Tie was away at the time, so the task of teaching archers could only be handed over to Jiang Jianhua.

In fact, even if Zhang Tie is there, it is impossible to stay in the stronghold all the time and teach these recruits.

"When you are practicing, when you draw the bow and set the arrow, the tip of the arrow must never be aimed at people. There should be no people or people in the arrow path. This is a respect for the safety of other people's lives."

"When others are shooting arrows, don't walk in front of others, it is very dangerous."

With his hands behind his back, Jiang Jianhua inspected all the recruits on one side. When he found Zhang Tie and others, he was about to step forward, but was stopped by Zhang Tie, who waved his hand to signal Jiang Jianhua to continue and leave them alone.

Seeing this, Jiang Jianhua had no choice but to continue explaining the prohibition of bows and arrows to the recruits.

"Also, empty storage is prohibited. The consequences of empty storage are very serious."

"The so-called empty release means that the arrow is not set up or the arrow is set up but falls off accidentally, and the string has no force on the arrow."

Jiang Jianhua took the longbow and flicked the bowstring slightly.

"When the bow is drawn and the string is released, the elasticity stored in the elastic bow arm during the bending process cannot be transferred to the arrow, and all of it acts on the bow and string, which will cause a great impact on the bow and string."

"Once it is empty, the life of the bow and string will be shortened, and the string will be broken and the bow will be useless. Moreover, when the bow and string break, it will cause harm to yourself."

"Arrows that are too light, soft, brittle, or damaged relative to the draw of the bow cannot be used. Using an arrow that is too light, the consequences are equivalent to a slightly empty shot. An arrow that is too soft twists too violently when it is fired, which is not good for shooting. It is also easily damaged."

“If the arrow shoots through hard objects, such as stones, metal, etc., even if no damage is seen on the surface of the arrow, the fiber of the arrow shaft may have cracks, and it will burst or break if fired again, and the sharp stubble may be inserted into the holder. On the archer’s hand.”

"So don't shoot hard objects with arrows during practice. Arrows that have shot hard objects must be carefully inspected. If any damaged arrows are found, all arrows will be recovered."

Jiang Jianhua seems to have an extraordinary understanding of bows and arrows. He is usually a taciturn person, but he did not expect to be so cool when teaching others how to use bows and arrows.

His dark face exudes love for bows and arrows, but in the eyes of the recruits, the dark instructor in front of him is so tall.

Next, Jiang Jianhua wanted to teach the recruits how to draw the bow with less effort, but at this time Zhang Tie and others had already started to walk away to the next location.

Seeing that Jiang Jianhua and Wei Yan's explanations are so detailed now, Zhang Tie is also very pleased in his heart.

I believe that it won't be long before these swordsmen and archers who have just joined the army will be able to go out and station at the border to resist foreign enemies.

On the spearmen's training ground, a group of recruits were sweating, holding spears in their hands, and shouting kills from time to time. The voice Zhang Tie and others heard outside the stronghold came from here.

The spears in the hands of the pikemen are different from the spears used by the guarding soldiers and the spears used by people. The spears used by individuals and gatekeepers are at most higher than the height of the individual, which is about two meters.

At this time, the spears in the hands of these pikemen are a full six meters long, which is 3-4 times the height of ordinary people. Soldiers look very short in front of this kind of spear, and this kind of spear is also called Make a spear.

The advantage of the pikeman is that the pike in his hand is light in weight and has a long killing distance. The pikeman can stab the enemy before the enemy can attack him.

Pikemen are also generally an effective unit against cavalry.

In the production of a long gun, the head and blade must be made of metal.The gun shaft can be made of wood or bamboo. This is also the reason why pikemen can be popular, that is, it is cheap to make.

If wood is used for the gun shaft, it must be made of hard wood, and when it is cut, the material must be taken along the wood grain, otherwise, the gun shaft will be easily broken.

Although the gun shaft made of bamboo substitute wood is relatively light, it is not as good as the wooden gun shaft because the bamboo is soft and easy to bend.

There is also a special long gun, that is the iron gun. As a special gun, it is made of iron including the gun shaft.

The iron spear can not only stab, but can also use its own weight as a heavy weapon, and it is extremely ferocious. If it touches it, it will either kill or injure.

However, due to the heavy weight of the iron gun, ordinary people must not use it without considerable strength.

The gun mainly attacks the enemy with a straight thrust, which is usually called "jaw", which is also the most basic and ultimate technique of the gun.This technique of attacking the enemy is called "killing method".

And the defensive technique of shaking the gun shaft to make the gun head hover up and down, left and right, and use it to pounce and dodge the enemy's spear that is stabbing straight at it is called "revolution".

More than 200 spearmen were divided into two parts, 100 of them were trained by Yan Beichen, and more than 100 soldiers were arranged in four columns, with 25 people in each column.

What Yan Beichen taught was still 'Zha', but on the basis of 'Zha', an arrangement was made. A group of recruits held long spears, and whenever Yan Beichen yelled a slogan, they would hold the long spears in their hands and stab forward.

Except for the first row, the next few rows used their respective gaps to stab forward and roar at the same time.

The other more than 100 people were trained by a person wearing leather armor for new recruits. This person held a Fangtian painted halberd emitting a cold light, and kept teaching how to move in front of other recruits.

These more than 100 soldiers did not practice "pinning". Instead, they kept moving around. The formation was circular for a while and square for a while. However, it seemed that many soldiers were unfamiliar with it and often made mistakes, attracting the attention of the recruit coach, and then again It was a burst of commentary.

Looking at the recruit instructor in front of him, Zhang Tie was slightly startled. This instructor was none other than the person Zhang Tie had seen outside the stronghold at noon, He Pojun, who was carrying a long weapon.

Listening to He Pojun's patient explanation to the soldiers who had moved out of position, and listening carefully to the content, it was also well-founded and made people suddenly understand.

Zhang Tie couldn't help but secretly rejoiced, "I didn't expect that my random actions would actually let me pick up a treasure. It's no wonder that I'm a child of a general family and is very good at formations. I just don't know if I'm good at marching and fighting. If I am good at it, then ...."

Thinking of this, Zhang Tie couldn't help looking forward to the man from the general family in front of him.

Today, among Zhang Tie's subordinates, there is no shortage of personal strength. Although there are no warriors with first-class strength, there are two with high martial arts skills, one is Yan Beichen, and the other is Zhang Tie himself.

Yan Beichen used to be able to leave a reputation for his martial arts in the Jianghu, and he could know the strength of his martial arts. Now that his physical attributes have improved again, he is afraid that there are few enemies among his teachers.

And the current Zhang Tie is also a human-shaped beast, with a high strength attribute and strong attack bonus, the power emitted has already surpassed the power of a first-class warrior.

Moreover, when Zhang Tie uses the [Balanced Black Lacquer Bow], his combat power is even more explosive. Most people can't stop Zhang Tie's arrow. If Zhang Tie makes a sneak attack, experts like Yan Beichen may be killed. On the spot.

The only fly in the ointment, which is also the Achilles' heel, is that pulling the [Balanced Black Lacquer Bow] is too strenuous, and Zhang Tie has to slow down for a while before pulling it once, otherwise Zhang Tie would already be able to outshine all heroes in terms of personal strength.

Not to mention the people with the power of second-rate warriors in Zhang Tie's hands, there are two to three hundred people.

As long as these people learn some martial arts, they can become outstanding generals on the battlefield in the future.

Three hundred kilograms of pure strength, if he is holding a heavy weapon, or a weapon that can give full play to his strength advantage.

That burst of power is no joke, on the battlefield, it is definitely a humanoid beast.

But when it comes to training formations and leading troops for ordinary soldiers, Zhang Tie and others are the newest among the newcomers.

Just like Yan Beichen, he can only practice some basic movements for the soldiers, and teach the soldiers their personal martial arts.

If you ask him to drill soldiers to line up, sorry, no.

Both Yan Beichen and Zhang Tie are soldiers who charge forward, not generals who lead the battle.The person who appeared in front of him just made up for Zhang Tie's current shortage of leadership talents.

People often say that the generals are incompetent and the three armies are exhausted. This is not just a joke. It was written down with blood and tears. Ma Di from the Three Kingdoms is a good example.

Not everyone can lead an army and fight a war. This is not a pretentious novel. The protagonist is not a person who is born with knowledge. Zhang Tie has not systematically learned how to march and fight. In his last life, he did not pay much attention to military affairs, only relying on some methods The news heard can only be discussed on paper, and the actual operation is not at all.

Looking at this serious-looking man who was teaching recruits, Zhang Tie was full of curiosity about this man who was born in a general's family, and subconsciously made a preliminary evaluation of him.

【Name: He Pojun】

【Initial evaluation: 43】

PS: Now I know why I want to focus on him.
