    "What a good thing! You can rely on it to deal with the cavalry!"

    Pang Yu is now considered a veteran who has experienced the battlefield. When he saw this thing, he immediately estimated its value.  The only thing I'm not satisfied with is this:

    "Why are there only four?"

    "It was originally a test product, but it has not been mass-produced yet. If you look closely, you will find that the details of these four machine guns are all different. Of course, the barrel caliber is the same, and they all use 12.7 heavy ammunition. Regardless of  Whether it's a man or a horse, one shot will definitely kill him."

    "Twelve-point-seven heavy bullets? Such an exaggeration, isn't it overpowered?"

    Pang Yu was surprised and said that he had seen that kind of bullet before. The weight of the bullet itself was nearly one tael. During the test firing, a goat was used as a target. With one shot, the whole sheep was exploded, even the intact pieces of meat were destroyed.  Hard to find.

    To this North Latitude just shrugged:

    "So it's a heavy machine gun? This thing is not only used by the army. The Navy also hopes to use it to wash the deck. In fact, these four machine guns were originally ordered by the Navy and were originally intended to be installed on clipper ships. Navy plan  Equip each large flying shear with one or two, so that the problem of insufficient self-defense firepower of the flying shear can be solved It is a bit too powerful to use to hit people, but you also know - for the army, it is a pipe  The thicker is always the better.”

    Pang Yu curled his lips, Qiong Haijun claimed to be the origin of the people's army, and now it seems that he has even inherited his deep-rooted "fear of insufficient firepower".  Even in this era, even if automatic weapons are used to bully ancient people, some people are actually worried about insufficient firepower.

    Beiwei himself probably felt that this was a bit exaggerated, and later added:

    "Of course, it adopts the gas-operated principle and uses rifle-standard bullets, which can be carried by a single person. A light machine gun to accompany the infantry attack is also under development. But again, there is no big problem in the technical design, but the qualified  Metal materials are not in supply, and production arrangements cannot be made, so we have to wait.”

    "So, are there enough bullets?"

    "We brought it with the ship this time. Each one is equipped with ten bases, and the total is about 200,000 rounds. It is not a big problem to fight for one or two games. If the battle lasts for a long time, we will need to ask for supplements from the rear."

    When he said this, Jie Xi interjected:

    "These bullets alone are heavy enough, with a total weight of more than twenty tons. Just for this machine gun company, twenty ammunition trucks need to be equipped. The clipper ship does not carry these bulky guys, so you need to provide them here.  "

    "No problem. I have already established an armament repair factory at the port, which can be temporarily added Speaking of which, these facilities were originally part of the second phase of the project that was cut off by Wang Pu. This time, they were all built in advance, which is an advantage for him.  ”

    "After this battle, you can ask for reimbursement from the Ming Dynasty But then again, by then, the money issue is probably not important anymore."

    When talking about this aspect, Pang Yu also had a headache expression on his face:

    "I'm afraid this rabbit skin won't be able to cover it anymore The relationship between the Ming Dynasty and us will definitely have to be repositioned. Alas, it's too late to think about this now. Let's talk about it after the fight is over."

    Several people were chatting while heading to the port military camp.  Including the soldiers of the third regiment brought by Pang Yu earlier, all were stationed there.

    He entered the barracks just after the banquet was dismissed. After putting down his backpack, he only washed his face and hurriedly went down to the company to communicate with the soldiers at the grassroots level. As the commander of the third regiment, he always attached great importance to grassroots work.  Not to mention being able to call every soldier by name, at least the cadres at the squad and platoon level must be familiar with it.  After the last battle in Liaodong, he was so anxious to go home to hold his son that he didn't even return to the Weihai base. Now he has to make up for the homework he owed.

    Bei Wei didn't have much to worry about, but he didn't go to rest. Instead, he went directly to the war room. When Pang Yu settled the troops and came to join them, he saw Bei Wei facing a set of sand tables in the center of the room, arms folded.  pondered.

    Seeing Pang Yu enter the door, Beiwei pointed at the small blue flags on the sand table representing the post-Jin army:

    "Is the location of the Houjin troops marked above reliable?"

    Pang Yu shrugged:

    "It's hard to say. This is a conclusion based on the Ming Army's battle reports, plus summary and analysis, but I can only say that the probability of appearing there is higher. You know that the Ming Army's own battle reports are very confusing. If you go by what they said,  Come on, there should be blue flags all around Beijing now."

    "On the other hand, the Hou Jin Army itself is constantly moving and fighting, looting everywhere, and their position is changing all the time. We only know now that they have joined the Mongols, and their total strength may have exceeded 50,000. From a few years ago  Judging from reports that the county town was attacked on almost the same day, Huang Taiji seems to have divided his forces."

    "Normal"?Since they have the dual advantages of mobility and total strength, in order to improve the robbery efficiency and reduce the logistical pressure, the best strategy is to divide the troops Fifty to sixty thousand people are crowded together, and there is not enough turf to chew on.  "

    Beiwei thought about it for a moment and suddenly asked:

    "How many horses do you have here?"

    Pang Yu was stunned for a moment, but then he understood and replied immediately:

    "Most of the horses and mules I have here are used as pack animals, or war horses that can run I can only scrape together about a hundred or so at the moment Do you plan to conduct reconnaissance in person?"

    "Well, intelligence is the key. Finding out the opponent's exact movements is more important than anything else We also need some pack horses, which should be equivalent to the number of war horses. I brought a reconnaissance company, which is almost enough."

    Pang Yu nodded, took out a notepad and wrote down the matter, preparing to make arrangements later.  But there's no rush about this matter - they won't be able to attack in the near future anyway, and they have to wait for other troops to come and join forces.

    However, they were not in a hurry, but the Ming court was extremely anxious.  That night, Wang Pu, the prefect of Tianjin, who received the news, paid another visit. Recently, he has been coming in person almost every day, or at least sending people to inquire. The messengers coming back and forth have almost reached the threshold of the port military camp.  They were all flattened.

    When Tianjin was first built, the entire city had not yet built a continuous city wall.  Wang Pu's magistrate's office is located in the Tianjin Acropolis, which is still some distance from the port.  According to the agreement between him and Pang Yu, the current defense of the port area is completely entrusted to Qiong Haijun, while Wang Pu, with his few government officials and Biaoying, only needs to be responsible for the safety of the Acropolis itself.

    Theoretically, there is another armed force in Tianjin Port-the newly formed Jinmen Navy.  Although he belongs to the Ming army, Wang Pu, who is only a fourth-grade prefect, is not qualified to give orders to him. Unless he can become a third-grade governor, he can also take charge of the local armed forces.

    Fortunately, the core of the Jinmen Navy is the "General", and the "General" from captain to crew was completely trained by the Qiong Navy. Currently, their baggage supplies are also provided by Tianjin Port.

    With these two threads in play, the Jinmen Navy has always been fairly obedient to the orders issued by Qiong Haijun and the Tianjin Prefect.  Anyway, we don't expect them to fight on land. We only ask them to defend their water strongholds honestly, and if necessary, they can use the "Shenwei Dingyuan Grand General" to act as a floating fort.

    Wang Pu and Xi still had old grievances when talking about it - the slap in the face was very serious at the time. However, now, when Wang Jieshan saw Lao Jie's face again, he felt as if he had seen a relative and burst into tears.  Full eyes:

    "Hey, Jie Junmen, you are finally here! Please send reinforcements quickly. The capital, the court are in danger!"

    When it comes to the ability to express emotions, Jie Xi is also at the level of an actor. He immediately stepped forward to hold Wang Pu’s hands and sighed:

    "Hey, Lao Wang, why don't I want to send troops immediately! Don't forget that we still have hundreds of people, and a Qiongshifang that is making a lot of money every day is also in the capital! But we are too few, too few!  "

    After wiping his face, Xie Xi also had a look of sorrow on his face. He looked even more anxious than Wang Pu:

    "We got the news on Qiongzhou Island this time, and we didn't dare to delay at all, but only these six or seven hundred people could come in a hurry. Even if we add the original troops here, it would only be just over two thousand.  Then the Jin side joined forces with Mongolia, and the two groups of Tatars combined, I heard that Hong Tai's men claimed to have an army of 200,000, but the actual estimate is at least 60,000, so there is really no way to fight."

    Wang Pu is an honest man. When he heard from Jie Xi that there were only a few hundred people here, and the combined forces were only two thousand, he suddenly looked disappointed:

    "Why do you only have this idea? Two thousand people are not enough. Guangjingshi itself has tens of thousands of defenders. They dare not go out of the city to fight Alas, Jiejunmen, we have shared joys and sorrows together on Qiongzhou Island.  , there are more than just these soldiers over there. Zhang Ling, Zhang Ruheng’s subordinates, Wang Xinzhi and Wang Fei General’s urban management teamcan they all be mobilized?"

    Jie Xi was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said:

    "They are not an army, they cannot go to the battlefield and fight tough battles."

    "How could it be? I didn't think so in Qiongzhou. But when I got here and took over the command camp of the Tianjin Prefecture, I often had to recall the scenes I saw at that time - even the urban management brigade over there could work day and night.  They have been practicing constantly and their armor is in perfect order, which makes them worthy of being elites in the Ming Dynasty!"

    If it was a bit pretentious just now, the judge at the banquet now actually smiled bitterly - the people of the Ming Dynasty, especially the civil servants, were so naive about the concept of the army, and they always felt that as long as they gathered people together, they would eat whatever they put in the basket.  Get up and practice whatever you wantIt can be considered an army.

    He had no way to explain this to the other party in detail. He could only hold the other party's hands and said sincerely:

    "Old Wang, please believe that we are absolutely as eager as you are to rescue Beijing City. Our fleet is currently deploying troops from Luzon, Taiwan and other places. Once the troops are assembled, we will immediately  Go to war and drive Hong Tai and his lackeys out of Gyeonggi!"
