There are so many things going on in Nanhaiwei. After returning from Hao Jing'ao, he was basically busy without even touching the ground.
He once promised in front of Chongzhen that Nanhaiwei would be ready for combat strength in three to six months. It has been almost three months now, but the combat strength he expected seems to be far away.
However, in the past three months, he had finally seen some results from his busy work, which made him feel a little bit relieved.
The officers and soldiers of the three guards were practicing almost every day, and the specific drills began to become more orderly.
With queue training, physical training in the morning, and military skills training in the afternoon, Nanhaiwei's several campuses basically never have any idle time, and the full and on-time military pay far exceeds the meals of other guards. Even with such intensity of training, it makes
The soldiers complained quite a bit, but in the end, most of them persisted.
Those who couldn't bear the hardship, those who cheated and cheated, and those who even planned to live in Nanhaiwei were almost eliminated under such intensity of training.
In Jiang Wan's vision, the entire Nanhai Guard should be trained according to the Spanish Grand Formation's tactics.
In this era when firearms have initially shown their power, the Spanish square formation is undoubtedly the most advanced infantry tactics, with musketeers as the main damage output, and spearmen and halberdiers protecting the musketeers. As long as the formation does not
In the event of a rout, even when facing cavalry, the Spanish phalanx can still have strong combat effectiveness.
A Baihu musketeer trained by each Qianhu will become the core of that Qianhu's battle. A Qianhu is a square formation, and three thousand households can also be merged into a large square formation. In this case,
Facing different numbers of enemies, the entire Nanhai Guard can be flexibly changed into whole or zero units.
Of course, this is just a rough tactical idea. Specific operational training requires a lot of time and running-in, and even actual combat training is required to achieve the desired effect. However, as long as the direction is right, it doesn't matter if you start slower.
It doesn’t matter, my steps in the future will become faster and smoother.
There are still three months left. Within these three months, it will be enough to train a group of skilled musketeers, and let them gradually cooperate with other hundreds of households. Regarding this point, according to the current training progress of Nanhaiwei,
Jiang Wan had no doubt at all.
It's just that in the past few days, news came from the Firearms Camp that Xu Caining took people out of the camp almost every day. Sometimes he went out very early and came back very late. Sometimes he went out late and even came back the next day.
.
Although it did not have much impact on training, Jiang Wan knew very well that when an army is training, there is a big difference between having a superior officer watching it and not watching it, especially in the firearms camp.
, now everyone has deployed a firearm, and it is almost time for live ammunition training. Xu Caining, the director of the firearms battalion, is often missing, which is a bit suspected of neglecting his duties.
"How about I have a chat with Xu Qianshi?"
Xu Xianchun was waiting for Jiang Wan's answer. As the governor of Nanhaiwei, even Jiang Wan had to admit that Xu Xianchun did a very good job at his job. Even if Xu Caining did this, if he didn't report it to him, Jiang Wan would
It may not be possible to pay attention to it late at night.
"No need for the moment. You are mine. If you talk to her, she will directly think that it is my intention!" Jiang Wan shook her head: "She thinks that I am dissatisfied with him, which is not appropriate. In fact, I think
She did a pretty good job!”
"But as a Qianshi, I go out to camp every night, but there are too many things that are criticized!" Xu Xianchun said: "If our Nanhai Guard is from other guards, then forget it, after all, this is a common thing in other guards.
, However, Nanhaiwei is a new army that your Excellency has high hopes for. Everyone is training every day, so hard, but she goes out to have fun every day, which can easily cause the morale of the army to be unstable!"
"Let's take a look!" Jiang Wan pondered for a moment: "Send a few people to follow her, don't let her find out, and see what she does when she leaves the camp every day!"
After all, he was from Jinyiwei. With Jiang Wan's instructions, Xu Xianchun was sent to Jiang Wan about Xu Caining's whereabouts after leaving the camp every day. Seeing such a result, Jiang Wan was also a little stunned.
"The former Military Governor's Mansion?" He was very surprised: "Are you sure it's not the Ministry of Works? The former Military Governor's Mansion is also very close to the Ministry of Works?"
"It's the former Military Governor's Mansion!" Xu Xianchun said with certainty: "Will you occasionally go to the Jiangsu Guild Hall?"
"That's it?" Jiang Wan didn't know what medicine Xu Caining was selling in this gourd.
"However, she is the one who goes most frequently to a house in Pearl Hutong!" Xu Xianchun said calmly: "My subordinates found out that the house was newly bought by Wu Xiang, the former commander of the military governor's office, and this Wu Xiang
The commander-in-chief seems to be from Jiangsu!"
Jiang Wan didn't react for a moment: "Who?"
"Wu Xiang, the commander of the former military governor's office!"
Jiang Wan couldn't help but the corners of her eyes twitched, turned around, and said to Xu Xianchun with a strange expression: "Does this Wu Xiang have a son, named Wu Sangui? He seems to be about the same age as our Xu Qianshi now!
"
"Sir, you know this person!" This time, it was Xu Xianchun's turn to be slightly surprised: "My subordinates found out that Wu Xiang does have three sons, and the second son is the Wu Sangui that the adults call him. Could it be that, ours
Sir, have you gone to find this young man from the Wu family?"
Xu Xianchun's eyes were a little complicated. Seeing him like this, Jiang Wan felt a little funny in her heart and did not criticize him.
Thinking about it, Xu Xianchun found out that Xu Caining had been colluding with someone from the former military governor's mansion all day long. Naturally, he immediately thought of collusion between the two parties and wanted to do something unfavorable to Nanhaiwei. Maybe in his heart, he had already thought about it.
He had already thought about many possibilities, but he never expected that when the topic changed, they were clearly discussing conspiracy and cheating, but in the blink of an eye, it turned to Lang Qing and Concubine Yi's children.
Love has gone up!
This change in painting style was so unexpected that he couldn't react!
"You know the identity of our Xu Qianshi!" Jiang Wan did not look at his face, shook her head and said: "If it is really for this matter, it is not easy for us to interfere, so you should leave it alone.
, the people who were sent out to follow her should also withdraw!"
"However, this will also delay your important affairs!" Xu Xianchun muttered.
"I'll tell her in person!" Jiang Wan waved her hand: "It's not surprising that men should get married when they get married, and girls should get married when they get married. If it is true that she has no intention of doing this in the military, she can just put her name in our place.
I will arrange for someone to go to the firearms camp!"
He shook his head: "She hasn't left the camp yet, so go and invite her over and say I have something to ask her!"
