Chapter 637 May You Never Adapt
Xiao Ruxun didn't know if there were other Beilu soldiers and civilians fleeing from other directions, but he didn't care, because Xiao Ruxun had no hope of escaping the black and endless Beilu in front of him.

From the binoculars, Xiao Ruxun had already seen countless cavalry on horseback chasing and killing the northern captives, but these people running forward couldn't break through their own formation, and their living space was slowly being compressed.

When these northern captives completely collapsed and fled in all directions, the gunners did not stay behind and waited. Wang Hui gave an order, and they put down the guns and pulled out their machetes and rushed forward, showing Xu Guangqi's tongue-twisting hand-to-hand combat prowess. Xu Guangqi did not expect that these bird gunners could not only shoot guns, but also draw their knives to fight on the battlefield.

"The blunderbuss has a great weakness, once it rains, it can't be used, so I ordered all the blunderbuss players to be good at hand-to-hand combat first. Only after passing the hand-to-hand combat can they become blunderbuss players. Those who can't pass the hand-to-hand combat should be gunmen and shield soldiers! "

Xiao Ruxun stood beside Xu Guangqi, looking at Xu Guangqi's shocking appearance, feeling quite proud.

My investment of 10 taels a year is really not in vain. The [-] Zhennan Army is really training according to the standards of officers. It is Xiao Ruxun's bottom line that everyone can know at least one hundred words. Using various methods, Xiao Ruxun forced the soldiers of the Zhennan Army to learn to read. In terms of officer promotion, the more characters they know, the more advantage they will have. This is also a point.

Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, which general dares to say that everyone in his army can read?

Xiao Ruxun dared to say that all of these soldiers could read and write, and everyone had the ability to be an officer, at least a corps leader.

The fact is also the same. When Xiao Ruxun was allowed to train the Zhennan Army, Xiao Ruxun thought that after World War I, Germany could only maintain an army of [-] soldiers, but the German government insisted on training these [-] soldiers as [-] officers. In a few years, these [-] soldiers became the backbone of the invincible German army across Europe. Based on this, the German army expanded rapidly, fighting every second.

What is fought in war is logistics and money. This is one point. What is fought in war is also training. It is still grassroots officers who fight in war. Especially in this era, when tens of thousands of people fight, the soldiers can't hear the lion's roar. At most, the orders can only be conveyed with loud arrows, war drums and gongs, and the methods are quite limited.

To achieve smooth command on the battlefield, the quality of frontline commanders is very important, otherwise, even if they don't understand orders, they can't execute them, so why fight?There is very little room for personal bravery on the battlefield, and it is all fantasy that one man and one horse scare away a million soldiers.

If there is a chance to expand the Zhennan Army in the future, all these soldiers will look like soldiers, so just practice accordingly!
The battle lasted for more than an hour. During this period, Xiao Ruxun stayed with Xu Guangqi and did not step forward to participate in the fight, but there was no need for that. The moment the Ming army cavalry and infantry joined forces, the battle was over, and the outcome was over. There is no suspense anymore.

The Battle of Datong ended smoothly, and the Ming army won a complete victory. When Nurhachi brought a very good prairie horse over, Xiao Ruxun could no longer see a standing northern prisoner in his vision.

The sight is a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

"This is a steed that the general found in the camp of the Northern Prisoners. He wants to dedicate it to the governor."

Nurhachi looked like a loyal dog, and the blood on his body could not hide the smile on his face. He brought a white horse with only a few parts stained with blood to present it to Xiao Ruxun.

Xiao Ruxun likes white. Although the main color of the military uniform of the Ming army is red, the cloak Xiao Ruxun wears is always white, and the original mount is also light-colored instead of dark-colored. Nurhachi heard the news from somewhere, so he was very happy Come over and dedicate this horse to Xiao Ruxun.

Xiao Ruxun looked at this big snow-white prairie horse with great joy, and was even more pleasantly surprised to find that this guy hadn't been eunuched yet. Although he didn't know how its previous owner treated him, it was obvious that this former owner also kept it to himself. It bred the idea of ​​the next generation of white steeds so that it could always ride them.

Xiao Ruxun, a war horse with such a pure coat color, had not been seen for a long time.

"Okay, okay, how did this horse get here?"

Xiao Ruxun touched the horse's head very happily, and Nurhachi smiled and said: "It was taken from the crotch of a fat-headed tribal leader. The guy wanted to escape, but was chopped off by the last general. This horse was snatched. The last general Seeing that the governor likes white, I thought the governor must like this white horse."

"Hahaha, okay, okay, General Tong has a heart, a big reward! Hahahaha!"

Xiao Ruxun stroked the frightened war horse for a while, then turned on the horse and sat on it. For some reason, this guy honestly let Xiao Ruxun ride without any struggle. Nurhachi said in surprise: "Governor What a perfect match for this horse!"

"En! Hahahaha!"

Xiao Ruxun urged the war horse under his crotch to make it walk, and this guy walked obediently, very obediently, which made Xiao Ruxun very happy.

"Okay! General Tong, how is the situation in Datong City?"

Nurhachi replied: "General Li has already led his troops into Datong City, but the last general has not yet entered."

"Well, okay, you are responsible for cleaning up the battlefield here, counting the casualties and losses, and then, Mr. Xu, let's go to Datong!"

Xiao Ruxun ordered so.

"promise!"

Nurhachi received the order, but Xu Guangqi did not answer.

Xiao Ruxun looked back at Xu Guangqi.

"Mr. Xu?"

Xu Guangqi just stood there stupidly, with a sluggish complexion and sluggish eyes, motionless as if he had been greatly stimulated.

Xiao Ruxun understood instantly.

In the beginning, it was because of his excitement that he could still look at the war calmly, but now that he was actually on the battlefield, on the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood, he must have been frightened.

"Mr. Xu?"

Xiao Ruxun rode his horse to Xu Guangqi's side and shouted. Xu Guangqi trembled and looked at Xiao Ruxun with fear in his eyes.

"President...Governor..."

The words are all useless.

"shocked?"

Xiao Ruxun looked at Xu Guangqi and asked with concern.

Xu Guangqi closed his eyes and swallowed, then shook his head.

"No, it's just...it's just the first time I saw it, and I couldn't get used to it."

Xiao Ruxun nodded, turned around and looked at the blood-colored land, and didn't feel any discomfort.

"Not adapting is a good thing. In today's world, not adapting is the greatest happiness. If you can eat meat and drink calmly even in such a place like me, that is the greatest tragedy. Mr. Xu, I hope you will never adapt."

Xiao Ruxun sighed: "Let's go, Mr. Xu, let's go to Datong!"

After finishing speaking, Xiao Ruxun rode his horse and walked towards Datong City.
