Goryeo, Tamna, Juseong, Town Guard House, Assembly Hall.

Envy, admiration, disdain, jealousy, surprise...

Seeing that the leader of his family treated Liu Laoliu so kindly, all the officials in Chiyang showed different expressions on their faces!However, before they could translate their emotions into words, the guard of Kanglin and Kangda lit the pipe in his mouth, and asked Zheng Nansheng, who was in charge of the infantry command in the left-behind committee, a new inquiry.

"Team Zheng, during the expeditionary force's journey to Korea, how many troops have been trained by our regular banner army, reserve soldiers, and new attached army? Are they able to go to the battlefield at any time? In addition, how armed are these new troops? ?”

"Report to my lord, when the expeditionary force went to the mainland of Korea, the Remaining Committee ordered its subordinates to train a total of 220 regular banner troops of four, 440 reserve soldiers of eight, and new attached troops of 890 nine! Among them, the regular banner troops, The reserve soldiers have all completed basic training and shooting training, but the newly attached army dominated by Koreans, my lord, please forgive the incompetence of the subordinates. They have not even completed the most basic formation training, let alone the more difficult shooting training. Assault training, and infantry and artillery coordinated combat training! To be honest, even if these guys can complete the basic training in the future, the subordinates don’t think they can be released to undertake combat tasks alone. Maybe, maybe security operations, and bandit suppression operations are even more important. It suits them! After all, they are just a group of Koreans, we can't expect too much from them..."

Hearing his lord's question, Zheng Nansheng didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately got up and gave a big gift. Next, this guy sorted out his thoughts briefly, and began to answer the question raised by the former!Through his narration, Kang Lin quickly figured out the specific training situation of each newly formed unit. Like Zheng Nansheng, this guy also had a headache for the gang of former Goryeo officials and servants who were too muddy to support the wall. His subordinates spent a lot of hard work, materials, and time to form the new Koryo army, but they spent the same amount of time, but they didn't even complete the most basic queue training!You know, the new Japanese army next door can already line up neatly, raise their guns and shoot a volley at a target fifty paces away, and the new Korean army, hehe, don't say it, don't say it!

"As for the level of their armed forces, I can only tell you that because our military production capacity is very limited, only the regular flag army is equipped with the flintlock rifles eliminated from the first and second teams. As for the reserve soldiers, The new attached army is a combination of matchlock guns, spears, and infantry bows. Anyway, we captured a lot in the previous battles, so our subordinates reported to the left-behind committee and allocated a batch of equipment to them! To be honest, just As far as the current situation is concerned, the effect is not bad. The seven Goryeo newly-affiliated companies and the six companies that use the combination of spears and bows can also deter many indigenous forces who do not know the truth. At least Li Zhenqing and Li Mushi who are hiding in Jingyi County He didn't dare to send regular troops to our side, and volunteers to make trouble. After he experienced the power of flintlock guns, tiger squatting guns, and Franglers, he didn't dare to show up for a long time! I guess this fellow Treat those newly attached troops of Korea as our regular flag army..."

"Well, not bad, not bad! As far as our current conditions are concerned, Sixth Uncle, you can train the Zheng management team and arm so many regular flag troops, and the reserve soldiers are already quite good. We have to keep our feet on the ground and develop step by step. Thinking too high and far away from reality! As for the new Koryo army, I think that according to what the Zheng Guan team said, use spears and bows for the time being, and wait until our joint blacksmith workshop can produce enough flintlock guns and matchlocks. Let’s turn them all into guns! After all, if there are any good weapons, we have to keep our reserve soldiers equipped first, and then we can arm the new attached army. After all, the regular flag army, the reserve soldiers are our basic base , we can’t compromise too much, not to mention our current firepower density, we still need spearmen and archers to cover us when facing a large group of enemies, or enemies on horseback! By the way, Commander Wu, we Has there been any new changes in the navy during this period? I remember that before I set off, there were two combat bird ships on the berth and started to be built. How are they now? Have they completed their outfitting? In addition, our How far is the sailor training program going?"

Nodding to express that he was satisfied with the other party's report, Kang Lin put down the pipe in his mouth with a smile, and then turned his attention to Wu Fang, the commander of the left-behind committee who was in charge of commanding the water army. In his mouth, he heard some good news that was equally pleasant, such as the ship has been repaired, or a group of sailors have been trained, and they can board the ship at any time to form combat effectiveness or something!However, the latter opened his mouth, and the simple-faced and dark-hearted Boss Kang Linkang knew that he was thinking too much!

"My lord, the bird ship is still working overtime on the berth and repairing it. It is estimated that it will be able to be successfully outfitted and launched in half a month. As for the sailors, because the infantry has mobilized too many new immigrants, young and strong, and the Korean officials and servants who used to be I have never been to sea, so the training progress is a bit slow! During the time you led the expedition, we recruited a total of 37 new immigrant sailors and 52 Korean sailors, and half of them were due to one reason or another. Eliminated by us..."

"What, dignified Chiyang, there are more than a thousand new immigrants who are young and strong. Leaving aside the more than 900 people selected by the infantry, there are still 37 people left. How can only 52 qualified personnel be selected to serve as sailors? After more than ten people have been returned, there are also Koryo officials and servants. According to our prefectural office, household registers, this time we have liberated a total of more than [-] Koryo officials and servants. More than a dozen usable young men joined our navy, but how come you have only [-] people left, is it because your selection criteria are too harsh, or the Koreans have ulterior motives and are unwilling to be used by me?"

Sure enough, after listening to Wu Fang's report, Kang Lin, who was smiling and smoking, suddenly changed his face. He currently has five or six large ships, eight or nine small ships, and two bird ships that are about to be completed on the berth. Two or three hundred qualified crew and sailors are needed to man the ship, and an equal number of crew and sailors are needed as a backup force in case of emergencies. But now the Wu side has used a sentence of infantry to mobilize too many new immigrants, young and strong, and Korean officials. The servant girl wanted to prevaricate herself for the reason that she had never been to sea before, she was clearly playing herself as a monkey!Thinking of this, Kang Lin's old face immediately sank, and then the scolding words came out of this guy's mouth like money!

"My lord, sailors are not infantry. They are more expensive than they are many. Right now, we recruit more Koryo officials and servants to participate in the training. It will not be of much use. Why don't we save the money and go to Daming or the coastal areas of Koryo?" Recruit some ready-made sailors to join our navy in order to form combat effectiveness faster and deal with the ever-changing situation outside..."

Seeing his lord's complexion was cloudy and uncertain, Wu Fang couldn't help but feel uneasy for a while, but when he remembered the poor performance of the newly recruited sailors, he changed his mind again and proposed to recruit ready-made sailors instead of training sailors himself!However, he didn't expect that it was his suggestion that instantly detonated the former's emotions!

"Absurd, childish, and brainless! Wu Fang, what do you think we are, merchants traveling across the sea, or pirates who rob houses? No, we are a group, a thriving group, and we will build a brand new country in the future Recruit ready-made sailors and train sailors instead of yourself. Thanks to you, an old sea wolf, you can figure out that all these years of combat experience have been thrown into the dog's belly! Come on, let me ask you, the sailors recruited at critical times Can there be loyal and obedient sailors trained by us? They may have different ideas from us from the beginning, and how can you ensure that they will not betray us when they call from their motherland! De, Ming people, and Korean people are the same! Only if we have the ability to train sailors, we will not be controlled by others in the next war. Do you understand this truth?"

As if feeling the insouciance of Wu Fang's words, Kang Lin finally tore off his gentle mask in a rage, and then, the roar of this man resounded in the entire meeting hall!To be honest, Kang Lin has always been very optimistic about this guy Wu Fang. Not to mention his ability to conquer and fight well, the key is that this guy is still very loyal to him!Therefore, this guy overwhelmed the other officers in Chiyang with his shallow qualifications, and became one of the leaders in the field, the commander of the navy rear guard!But looking at it today, in addition to the above advantages, this guy also has a fatal flaw, that is stupidity!He actually tried to take a shortcut and replace the sailors he trained with temporarily recruited sailors. What is it if it is not stupid?And such a person, is he really worthy of being taught by himself as a commander? Don't be careless and send all the precious navy power in your hands to the bottom of the sea to feed bastards...

With this in mind, Kang Lin immediately ordered the latter to step down, and handed over the command of the navy to Liu Xiong, the deputy commander. As for himself, he was suspended pending investigation under the order of the former!If it is found out, this guy is just short-circuited and talking nonsense, which is not a serious problem, but if it is found out, this guy has any dangerous thoughts, then it will be a big deal!In order to get rid of the dangerous elements hidden inside him, Kang Lin will definitely choose any means to suppress those who dare to make different voices with an iron fist. If you don't believe me, you can refer to the Wang Qing riot!

"Okay, Commander Wu, you have worked hard during this period, so go back and rest for a few days, and wait for the new appointment to be issued! As for your position, the deputy commander Liu Xiong will take over temporarily! How about it, boss Liu, do you have any questions?"
