Chapter 255 Finale
To the west of the capital, there are three camps.

After a few rains in autumn, people feel the cold winter in a blink of an eye, but the three camps are in full swing, and people are screaming everywhere.

The soldiers and horses of the six towns around the capital commanded their powerful soldiers to the capital to show off their martial arts. This kind of grand occasion could only happen after Gaozu, Chengzu, and Wuzong, but it was achieved in the year of Longqing. It is impossible for the senior members of the capital to know the soldiers.

For this matter, Chen Mu was often impeached.

In fact, General Chen felt that he was wronged. Of course, having said that, whenever he was impeached, he never felt wronged.But this is a real injustice. He is not a behind-the-scenes pusher as imagined by others, and he has no ability to contribute to such a major event. He always feels that he is lucky to encounter such a thing that maximizes his benefits. .

But others obviously didn't think so. If Chen Ju hadn't gone to Jumahe to supervise the army, how could he have returned to the capital to ask for a supplementary review gun in the three major battalions?

If it weren't for his plan to present Feng Bao with a comprehensive review of the exercise code, how could Feng Bao have said the matter clearly in the emperor's ears?

If it wasn't for Gao Gong to watch the ceremony, how could Gao stubborn donkey's temperament not say a word on the important matter of preventing the emperor from reading it?

The governor of the East Factory fully implemented it, the first assistant Li Chunfang and the second assistant Zhang Juzheng did not say a word, the second assistant Gao Gong and the chief eunuch Chen Hong who had watched the ceremony were unable to speak on this matter. When the situation is not uncommon, and it is such a big event, it is terrible to reach a consensus tone.

Some people saw that Chen Mu entered the slander, while others saw Chen Mu's ability in Dayue's arrangement. People are in different positions, and what they see is also different.

In any case, General Chen's prestige in the capital skyrocketed after the Longqing parade was established, and he was given the nickname Chen Mianmian.

Because I am not afraid of bullets.

In more than a month, there were more than [-] manuscripts of impeachment against him, all of which fell into the sea. Only one said that he was relocated, slack and neglected military affairs.

Immediately afterwards, the Ministry of War transported another 7000 taels of military reward silver to Xiaoxiying.

Chen Mu was also considered diligent. He lived in the mansion bestowed by the emperor for two days. He returned to Xiaoxi Camp to practice as a sergeant. camp.

Feng Baopu's stall is bigger than his, and the imperial edict issued by the imperial court is that the six generals and commanders and above should command [-] troops from the headquarters to the capital to participate in the review, and even Deng Zilong, the general, must bring [-] soldiers and horses with him. Together, Chen Mu's soldiers became one thousand.

There are more than 800 soldiers from his family and more than [-] recruits left in Xiaoxiying, and the guerrilla Hu Liangpeng stays behind.

But Hu Daxiong was very angry.

"That battalion of cavalry is really impressive. Whose is that?"

Stationed in the Beijing camp, Chen Mu's official position is not ranked among the soldiers who came from all directions. The location of the camp is neither good nor bad. In front of him is the deputy commander of the six sides and seven towns. Behind Yang Siwei, he was barely treated as a deputy commander in chief, and his water and food were not short, which was not bad.

Chen Mu took a few people with him and rode around the camp with Deng Zilong on horseback. He didn't want people to think that he was spying on him. The ones who look like it must be Qi Jiguang's soldiers. The soldiers in his camp are like robots. Even when they are resting, they sit around a bonfire and don't talk to each other.

There is discipline inside and out.

It was different in other camps, it was noisy, especially in Liaodong Town, when armored horses rushed out like a locomotive, followed by several armored cavalry with small Frang machine guns and rushed out to chase the horses; Either there was a fight in the camp, and the Liaodong soldiers wrapped in heavy armor and cotton armor could tell at a glance that they were good men who had suffered enough, and they were aggressive inside and out.

Most of them are cavalry. Most of the commanders and deputy commanders from the six towns are led by cavalry. The Qi family army brought a small car battalion. It has cars, horses, guns and guns. It is a miniature Jizhen combat unit. The first twenty seats In the camp, only Chen Mu's camp was full of infantry.

"General Zhengxi, that's the cavalry from Datong Town." Deng Zilong looked at the general's number, and said to Chen Mu: "General, when we go to Wanquan, we also need a battalion of cavalry."

What attracted him the most was the camp of Ma Fang, the former general of Zhengxi and the commander-in-chief of Datong. The five hundred riders in his camp were all braided Mongolian cavalry. Old-fashioned firecrackers, and although these flesh-faced fighters seldom speak Chinese, they are extremely disciplined under Ma Fang's restraint-although they are not as good as Qi's army.

"cavalry?"

Chen Mu chuckled, pointed to a camp in the distance immediately, and said, "Have you seen the soldiers in Zhenbao Town? How are their guns different from ours?"

Zhenbao town is Zhending and Baoding, which are the areas that Jineng broke through a while ago. If their army hadn't been active in the rear to close the line of defense, maybe Jineng could really find a place to break through the Juma River.

They also sent three [-] battalions this time, including infantry and cavalry, and the infantry also carried Francine.

Hearing Chen Mu ask what was the difference, Deng Zilong smiled and said, "It's their gun master."

"Yes, their guns are long, so they can't be used on the horse. Our guns are short. I asked Lao Guan to do it at the earliest. What I do is to use the gun immediately."

"But it's not easy to practice. It's not easy for me to stop immediately to load the guns." Chen Mu said, patting the guns on his waist, and said: "So there is this one. A horse soldier carries at least three guns and two guns. When the saber meets the crossbowman, use the short gun to hit it for a while, and when it gets close to the two gunmen, hit it again, if the force is the same, it should have been defeated, and you can kill with the saber."

Chen Mu also wants to have cavalry. He has long hoped to have a cavalry team. The biggest shortcoming of his army now is that there is no cavalry and no car battalion. There will be cavalry."

When we returned to the camp, several flag soldiers were driving a cart with four pack horses. The cart was nearly ten feet long and covered with red cloth. The steel frame wheels plowed two ravines on the Sanhe land, stretching towards the official road outside the Beijing camp. and go.

Long Junxiong took off his pocket coat, and his loose hair was no longer noticeably shorter than others. He handed back his waist badge, looked back at the carriage, and said to Chen Mu: "General, I got it back. There are only two Chen Youjians, and one of them is equal." .”

Chen Mu looked at the carriage, nodded slowly, did not speak, just looked around, and signaled to the camp for Long Junxiong to drive the carriage into the camp.

On the carriage was a nine-foot-long ten-jin cannon. To all the generals in northern Xinjiang, this was a city defense cannon.

For its maker, Chen Mu, in the sea, it is a conventional ship gun; on the ground, it is a field gun.

He was the finale of the Grand Parade in the capital.

　Good morning!
