Please ask me to be the emperor

"Greetings to His Highness King Shun!" "Little Yuchi" Wei Congyi has long lost his arrogance and bowed to Zhang Shun honestly.

Crickets can compete with grasshoppers, but they cannot compete with tigers.

Now that Zhang Shun has reached an unmatched status, all his ambitions and aspirations have become a joke.

"They are all the old people who followed me back then. Don't be so polite!" Zhang Shun waved his hand and asked, "What position do you have now? Do you have any ideas?"

"In the past, our affairs were so complicated that we could never take care of old people like us."

"I happened to be passing by Guyuan today, and I came here to have a drink with you!"

After Wei Congyi heard this, he realized that Zhang Shun wanted to reuse him. He breathed a sigh of relief and responded quickly: "I don't dare to trouble King Shun to ask questions. Thanks to General Chen's care, he is now serving as the director of the Cavalry Department. There are five people under his command." Hundreds of Cavalry.”

"Cavalry? The cavalry is good!" Zhang Shun motioned for Wei Congyi and others to sit down and raised his glass, "I still remember when Congyi and Changzhi fought on horseback. I was amazed at how good the cavalry was."

"King Shun is just laughing at him. He has some trivial skills and cannot reach the level of elegance." After being suppressed by Zhang Shun for some time, Wei Congyi finally figured it out.

Is there really a shortage of talented people in this world? In fact, there is no shortage at all.

Chen Changzhen is just an escort who travels all over the country. Not to mention that he has become a master of swordsmanship. Now he arranges his troops in formation and leads them to fight in an orderly manner.

Xiao Qinhu is a hunter who has no other talents except for his good shooting skills. Now he is guarding Nanyang, so that the governor of Huguang does not dare to go north.

Zhang Sanbai was a common man, but because his sister was favored, he was able to command the battle on behalf of the monarch and captured the governors of the five provinces of the Ming Dynasty.

How could they be superior to me because of their virtues? It was just because they were close to King Shun.

Just as Li Si sighed at that time: The virtuous and unworthy people are like rats, it depends on where they are!

Eat shit on the side and rice on the side, that’s all!

"Congyi is too modest!" Zhang Shun said when he saw Wei Congyi, Chen Changzhen, Song Xiance and others also raising their glasses, he drank it in one gulp.

"It's not because I'm being humble, but I've actually learned a lot recently." Wei Congyi also drank the contents of the cup and couldn't help but shook his head.

"Only then can we understand the meaning of what King Xiang said in the past, 'One man can be defeated with a sword, but it is not enough to learn, but ten thousand can be defeated by learning'."

"Oh, how do you say this?" Zhang Shun asked in surprise.

"No matter how great your personal martial arts skills are, you can only kill a few people or a dozen people!" Wei Congyi couldn't help but sigh.

"If enemies come in thousands and they line up to be slaughtered by you, how many people can you kill all day long?"

"Oh, what is the method of defeating ten thousand enemies?" Zhang Shun couldn't help but asked with a smile.

Wei Congyi's words were a statement to himself that he actually wanted to lead the army in battle.

The so-called "enemy of ten thousand people" is nothing more than a cover-up.

In the past, Wei Congyi coerced the people and made noise outside the capital, causing an uproar in the Ming Dynasty. This shows his ability.

Of course, Zhang Shun's rhetorical question was also meant to be a test.

Since you want to lead the army, do you have any plans? Do you have any plans?

"Sun Tzu said: Soldiers have heard of clumsy speed, but have not seen the speed of skill. Therefore, in the art of military use, lightness and speed are the best, and clumsiness is the worst."

"A soldier with a weak heart can travel hundreds of miles a day, come and go suddenly. I want to fight, but the enemy has no choice but to fight me. Those who take advantage of it will take advantage of it. I don't want to fight, so I drift away, and the enemy cannot catch up." also!"

"Therefore, cavalry is at the top, infantry is at the bottom, light troops are at the top, and heavy troops are at the bottom."

"Oh? Listen to Yi's words and want to use Qingqi?" This is not the same as Lu Xiangsheng's "Qibing Camp" idea.

Lu Xiangsheng's special operations thinking is that horses are just vehicles for "surprise troops", and he emphasizes "night attacks" and "surprise attacks."

And Wei Congyi's thinking is maneuverable, maneuverable, and really maneuverable!

"What are your plans?" Zhang Shun did not immediately deny Wei Congyi's idea, but asked.

"That's what I think!" Seeing that Zhang Shun didn't reject it, Wei Congyi had an idea.

"The uniformed cavalry has at least one person and three horses, one mounted horse for fighting, one middle horse for riding, and one mule and horse for carrying weight."

"Ordinary cavalry requires at least two horses per person, one for fighting and one for carrying weight."

"Both of them move very slowly, and they only last about seventy miles in a day."

"What I call 'Qingqi' is a person with two horses, traveling hundreds of miles with each passing day, and appearing and disappearing. There's no way he can do that!"

Zhang Shun couldn't help but frowned when he heard this. He also knew a lot about the cavalry of this era.

The rebel army actually did not have that many mules and horses, so they had to use vehicles to transport armor, vests, baggage and other equipment.

Although the marching speed is slightly limited, under good conditions, it can barely meet the cavalry's standard speed of seventy miles per day.

Now that Wei Congyi has boasted about going to Haikou and traveling hundreds of miles with one person and two horses, it is obvious that he does not need to bear the burden, or that the main burden must be borne by himself.

But in this case, can such a lightly-armed team still have the ability to fight independently?

In this era, due to the popularity of various firearms, firepower was unprecedentedly intensive.

If the fragile body is not protected by armor, it will be injured and die if it is touched. How can it fight?

He couldn't help but ask: "If this is the case, how can we defeat the enemy?"

Wei Congyi also knew that the so-called war only had two main points.

One can catch it, and the other can win the fight.

The marching speed of the lightly armored warrior is naturally far beyond the average level of this era, but how to defeat the opponent is the key to his "light cavalry".

"That's my plan." Wei Congyi couldn't help but said seriously after hearing this.

"Every rider is carefully selected and equipped with a firecracker, a spear, a bow and arrow, a bag of ammunition, and a bag of dry food."

"One person has two horses, riding in rotation. There are also a number of horses specially designed to carry grain, furlong cannons, ammunition, armor and even vests."

"However, the number of armors and vests is only two or three hundred, so they are used as a last resort. Therefore, they can travel hundreds of miles a day."

"If we encounter an emergency military situation, we can spare no effort in horse power. If we increase the number of horses, one person can travel 200 miles."

"Among them, it is best to shorten the barrel of the fire gun and increase the diameter of the gun, so that it can break the fine armor!"

"A light horse is worth a heavy gun?" Zhang Shun was stunned and couldn't help but subconsciously concluded.

"Huh? That's right!" Wei Congyi couldn't help but admire him, "That's what it means."

"In today's world, firearms are sharp, and frontier troops also use bird blunderbuss in exchange for bows and arrows. I wonder if this is the case, why not value blunderbuss more than horses, be as light as the wind, and invade like fire? Is there anyone in the world who can stop it?"

"Okay! Come, after drinking this glass of wine, I will appoint you to form a battalion of cavalry in the same way, and see how effective it is!" Zhang Shun listened for a long time, and finally understood that Wei Congyi was going to form a cavalry cavalry.

To be honest, although Zhang Shun is quite talented in command, he is still a little unsure about how to fight the war in the future.

Therefore, he was gradually exploring and experimenting when he asked Xu Quan to set up the Bird Camp and Ren Jirong to set up the "Children's Camp".

Now that Wei Congyi has this new idea, he might as well hand over the cavalry battalion that he originally planned to leave to Li Jiyu and let him test it out.

If there are indeed results, the entire army can be quickly promoted and the army can be rapidly expanded to prepare for war.
