Chapter 1309 Faith
Wei Jinzhong.

Hearing the name, Ying Ming looked at the general manager of Zhongying with a smile. He thought that this simple and honest general manager didn't know what he lost just now.

He originally planned to give some training to the general of the middle battalion, and then promote him to be the former town general of Muye, under the command of the battalion of the three veterans of Muye, who will be the main force of the British land battle of the Eastern Army.

Even in Ying Ming's eyes, this battalion of three veterans recruited by Li Yuxi from the militia was a qualified unit.

The command of this force is in the Dongyang Army Mansion, and he is the highest officer of the East Yang Army Mansion in England. Recruitment among soldiers and sailors.

All the officers of the third battalion, three generals, three staff officers, twelve post chiefs, twelve co-posts and 48 armor chiefs, a total of 78 officers are all equipped with plate armor and horses; the third battalion has 25 soldiers Everyone wears helmets, and at least nine of the [-] people under each armor leader wear armor.

In response to the characteristics of many encounters in the English combat environment, the weapons are also unambiguous. In addition to the original large and small crossbows, dart guns, spears and ring knives, the three sentries in each battalion are designated as the central army, left and right sentries.

On the left and right are regular infantry posts, under the jurisdiction of Scout Armor, Musket Armor, Infantry Armor, and Artillery Armor. The Armor Armor has five horses; There are three light Franco cannons.

The central military sentries mainly consist of baggage armor, flag drum armor, hand gun armor and artillery armor. It should be clearly stated that they are directly under the general command of the battalion. Armor is equipped with twenty captured pistols to protect Bazong.

Even if we don't talk about the military equipment of this army, these Muye warriors have received military training in North Asia, which is much stronger than the tribal warriors that Ying Ming commanded in Ailan before.

Once you serve as the chief officer of this army, it is easy to make great contributions in the next battle.

And the commander in chief of the middle battalion in front of him, regardless of whether he knew it or not, at least in Ying Ming's heart, he traded the chance of being promoted to acting chief of such an army in exchange for recommending his adopted son to him.

Ying Ming wanted to know what kind of boy this Wei Jinzhong was.

Naturally, they are teenagers. Beiyang recruitment mainly recruits 25 to [-] banner troops for training. These low-level officers are not very old. to twenty.

Song Yang didn't keep the officer waiting for too long, and brought his adoptive son after a short while. He looked about sixteen or seventeen years old. He wore a blue and white Jinghai suit with a short chain mail robe and a red armor skirt underneath. His shoulders were broad and his arms were long, he bowed his head as soon as he walked over, bowed his head, and said loudly, "Little Wei Si, pay your respects to the general!"

He does not wear boots on his feet and wears Pi Weng on his calves. It can be seen that he is not a Beiyang Banner Army. His hands are eye-catching, with two thumbs on each side, and they are all covered with tongue-shaped celadon scorpions used by Chinese archers. Black ropes are tied on the outside. on the wrist.

韘 is the pull finger, which is used to buckle the string in archery. The outer rope is tied to the wrist to prevent the bow string from pulling the pull finger off the finger. Archers from the Central Plains used it in the Shang Dynasty. The barrel wrench is also used by some people.

But this thing is a rare item in Beiyang. During the Nanyang Guard period, Chen Mu's soldiers still had bowmen. It was because the firearms were not reliable enough. Nowadays, the Beiyang Banner Army emphasizes firearms and despises bows. There are even no archers in the army, let alone Without special training, the Beiyang cavalry with bows and arrows are all macho men who join the army with art.

Wei Jinzhong, who calls himself Wei Si, wears a porcelain scorpion on both hands. In Ying Ming's view, this is a symbol of superb riding and archery and the ability to use both sides of the bow.

Song Yang said to Ming earlier that this Wei Jinzhong came here with immigrants from Shandong that year when the Ming and Western countries often won the war. He left a hunting ground for him to ride a horse and shoot arrows, and sold the rest to others.

Spending money is a big deal. When he was in Changsheng, he was willing to spend money to buy horses. Later, he went to Muye. Song Yang knew him from playing football. He liked this kid very much. One was willing to adopt a foster son and the other was willing to worship his foster father. I brought it here at this opportunity.

"I heard from your adoptive father that you were the one who came up with the idea of ​​shouting in barbarian language to disturb the morale of the enemy army. Raise your head and I'll ask you."

Ying Ming said that the body on the chair leaned forward a little, and asked, "Your name is Wei Jinzhong, why did you sign up for Wei Si?"

Wei Jinzhong raised his head, and his appearance made people feel good about it. He has thick eyebrows, big eyes, and fair skin. If he is a Jinshi in the liberal arts, he will at least be able to be a third-rank official without making big mistakes in his life.

Since ancient times, officials have also judged their faces. Good looks only affect the favorability of others, but ugly looks may not even make an official.

With a cautious and restrained smile on his face, he narrowed his bright eyes and said, "Wei Si is easy to remember, Jin Zhong wants the general to remember."

"Song Ba always values ​​you very much. You know everything, but you can shoot left and right?"

"Don't dare to say that you can shoot left and right, that's what the ancient generals would do, but the villain has been running on the streets since he was a child, and he is familiar with bows and horses. He used to chase in field battles outside the city, and shot five people with his right hand and left hand with an arrow, and vice versa. They shot three people, but they didn't have military registration yet, so they didn't cut off their heads."

When it came to riding and archery skills, Wei Jinzhong was very confident, and then asked Ying Ming with a deliberate face: "Besides these villains, there are other things, but it's not about military affairs, they are all things that are not on the table."

"Go ahead, Song Ba always said that you can play cuju."

"Know how to play Cuju, play suona, play army drums, play piano and sing songs. My father and mother are both musicians. I don't need to teach them since I was a child. I always beat others. I also learned chess and cards in my hometown, but I said Come out and let the general laugh at you, and give you all the answers to your boredom, the villain is not good at learning, and often loses."

"You know a lot, President Song, I like this kid very much. How about letting him stay with me as a servant?"

As soon as Ying Ming said this, Wei Jinzhong immediately looked at Song Yang. Song Yang had this purpose in himself. It is your blessing to accept you as a family soldier, are you willing to serve the general in the future?"

"If the child is willing, he will definitely live up to the kindness of his righteous father. Thank you General for fulfilling it!"

"That's fine, you will follow me from now on, and I will go to my favorite horse to give you as a meeting gift later, but just to let you know that following me is going to war, if you are afraid of death, go back to the pasture as soon as possible."

Wei Jinzhong raised his head: "Don't worry, General, Wei Si is not afraid!"

"Also, it is meritorious service for you to contribute to the total in the field battle, but you have to remember that it is okay to win a game with a little wit; but in the war of the army and the competition of the country, there is never a winner by conspiracy."

"Perhaps you think surprise makes the battle easier and allows more soldiers to survive, but that's not what we need. The military government has no shortage of troops, and what the Muye Third Battalion lacks is faith. This belief is not that we can win this battle, but rather It is to let the battalion soldiers from Muye know that the Ming Empire is invincible, and in the next battle, even if the enemy is outnumbered, we will defeat the enemy with a majestic formation."

Ying Ming's expression was very pious, even more pious than the Protestant priests in Puli County in church, he said: "Conspiracy and cunning rely on luck, because we think that the dignified formation cannot defeat the enemy, and we can only use conspiracy to gain more chances. No."

"We don't need to gain the trust of the opponent's army to win, and we don't need to learn the language of the opponent. Today's false military order, tomorrow's false plan to surrender, and the Japanese's false surrender will come true. I have waited here to let the world know that tomorrow's military battle Invincible, even one man, one horse, one soldier and one cannon, can break through their army formation and blast their city walls, even if they can't break through this year, next year's warships will break through."

"Everyone has to believe in this, because I have a share in the world of Daming."

Ying Ming finished speaking with his chin raised, glanced at President Song and Wei Si, and nodded secretly.

It seems that he has not given lessons to the immature lecturers of the Muye Third Battalion these two days, and he is very powerful.
