Warring States Eagle

"Your Majesty Zheng Liang. (.) I used to be the captain of the Spanish Musketeers, and I have a deep understanding of the Musketeers' tactics." Seeing Zheng Liang's hesitation, Ander immediately promoted himself.

"Oh? What is the musketeer tactics?" Zheng Liang, who came from later generations, has heard many tactics theories, but after all, the theory is not as good as the reality. Now Zheng Liang wants to hear Andel's musketeer tactics.

Ander knew that it was Zheng Liang who was trying to figure out his strength, so he straightened his body immediately, and then said: "I call this method of warfare Dutch round shooting. It is to divide soldiers into several groups to form The units are shot from left to right. Trained soldiers can complete the first group when the last group is finished, ensuring a steady stream of shots and great lethality. They are the nemesis of cavalry.”

"Oh?" Zheng Liang became interested, especially when he heard the opponent say that this method of warfare is very lethal to cavalry, his interest increased greatly.At this time, the main force of the powerful daimyo is cavalry.It would be extremely beneficial to master such a cavalry nemesis method.

"How is this different from repelling she?" While being interested, Zhengliang also remembered the three-stage strike created by the Demon King in the future. Strictly speaking, three-stage strike is also a type of repelling, which is different from Ander just now. The so-called wheels are different.

"The platoon shooting is mainly that the first row shoots and kneels down to load the guns, then the second row starts shooting, and the third row prepares to take turns, but after the fourth row, they will not fire their guns. The rotation is from left to right. A few people or even dozens of friends can fire, which can ensure that the first five platoons can fire. The platoon she is a tactic. The Spanish musketeers have basically given up." Ander replied.

It seems that this kind of shooting in the west is different from the three-stage strike of the Demon Emperor. If there is time in the future, Andel should also study it, and then combine the advantages of these tactics.In this way, once the Luo family's musketeers join the battlefield, they will definitely be able to play a great role.

By this time, Zheng Liang had already decided to hire Ander.Of course, there are a few things that need to be checked before hiring.

"Ander, what guns are you using now?" Zheng Liang continued to ask.

"My lord, the most advanced is the matchlock gun now," Ander replied.

Sure enough?After hearing this, Zheng Liang said silently in his heart.Matchlock guns were invented by Europeans in the 15th century.This kind of matchlock gun is mainly equipped with a front sight and a rear sight on the barrel, and uses a matchlock to ignite and fire. It will be more than two years before Japan comes into contact with this matchlock gun for the first time.Then it was improved and named as Iron Cannon.

At this time, Daming should have also seized some matchlock guns brought by the Europeans. Unfortunately, these matchlock guns that are similar to the fire system that Daming is currently preparing have not attracted their excessive attention.Until later, European pirates and Japanese pirates harassed Daming more and more, and they got the improved matchlock gun again.They only started to pay attention to this weapon, and thus invented a more advanced bird system, and even a series of other muskets.

Later, more advanced flintlock muskets appeared, marking the end of the era of mechanical ignition muskets.

It seems that a workshop for the production of muskets must be established as soon as possible.At the same time, he can also provide them with some manufacturing ideas from later generations. As for whether he can manufacture them by then, it is really beyond his consideration.

"Ander, do you know how to make a musket?" Thinking of this.Zheng Liang said tentatively.Before there is a large-scale musketeer in the territory, Ander cannot be left idle there.From the perspective of making the best use of people, Zheng Liang is going to use him as an instructor and as a craftsman.

"Your Majesty Zheng Liang. I know a little about the manufacture of muskets, but I need you to provide me with a complete set of tools for making muskets in Europe, so that I can make muskets," Ander said.He is indeed good at firearms, especially muskets, but it is a bit difficult to ask him to make muskets, at least in the absence of professional tools.Even with professional tools, he can only provide some manufacturing methods and experience, and he himself does not have any experience in the production process of the whole process.Of course, in order to increase Zheng Liang's confidence in hiring him, he still bit the bullet and said that he would make it.

"That's it!" Zheng Liang nodded and said upon hearing this.It seems that he can only provide some advice to the craftsmen at that time, and at the same time, in the absence of a real musketeer team, he will be in charge of leading the upcoming fire team.Anyway, as long as the formation is well trained, once equipped with muskets, you can go into battle.

"Your Excellency Zhengliang, I am also very familiar with the use of artillery, but I only know the production process of artillery, not how to make artillery." Since Zhengliang will ask him about the production of artillery, he should also ask about artillery. After all, artillery is much more powerful than muskets.

"Okay, I see," Zheng Liang nodded.Compared with the technology of muskets, the technology of artillery is even more advanced.At least until the real manufacturing craftsmen are obtained, the idea of ​​self-manufacturing artillery can be temporarily shelved.As for the future, what Zheng Liang plans to do is to find a way to buy a few artillery pieces from the southern barbarians for the time being, as a sharp weapon for attacking the city in the future.

"Ander, you have been officially hired by me, and the salary is 30 shi per year." Zheng Liang finally decided to hire the former captain of the Spanish Musketeers.After all, muskets will gradually become the main force in the Warring States period. Although the foundation of the Luo family is still very weak, it is still necessary to make some preparations in advance.

"30 stone?" Ander looked at Zhengliang suspiciously.He had no idea how many gold coins these 30 represented.

"Oh!" Zheng Liang slapped his head, forgetting that the measurement methods of these Europeans are completely different from those of Japan.

"In this way, for the time being, I will give you 10 taels of gold every year as a reward. If you have other outstanding military exploits or contributions, you will be rewarded with some extra gold. What do you think?" Zheng Liang said.According to the current conversion rate in Japan, one tael of gold is equivalent to four copper coins. If the gold is brought to Europe, it will appreciate three to four times in value. For Ander, it is already a very good deal.

"Gold?" Upon hearing these two words, Ander's eyes instantly turned into gold, and his saliva almost flowed out.

These guys really belong to the gold-worshiping family. They haven't even seen the shadow of gold yet. They just know it, and they already look like this.Seeing Ander's expression, Zheng Liang couldn't help thinking. (to be continued..)
