Seeing that his own people had won again, the people around him were immediately excited, and Luo Zhuo's condition was much calmer.

After all, this is a competition in front of Li Meng. Everyone's glory and wealth are all in the control of Li Meng, the general of Laizhou Prefecture. It would be of great benefit to give Lord Li a good impression in such a competition. After losing the first game, Luo Zhuo, who was in the competition, was nervous, not to mention that he was in the competition, even the officers who organized the competition had a gloomy face.

The third game of the iron while the iron was hot began immediately. Both sides walked within five steps with their weapons. At the beginning of the game, Dunglas had a smile on his face.

At such a close distance, the combined length of the spear and axe gun is longer than this, so it cannot be flat, and only weapons can be erected.

Anyone with a little trick could understand that within such a close distance, the spearman's fighting style could only be to drop the spear in his hand and draw out the short knife he carried to fight closely. The axe and gun in Deng Yangren's hand could be chopped down at any time, and the outcome was clear.

Luo Zhuo just regretted why he agreed to come here for a competition. The current situation will probably make him feel bad in Lord Li's mind. The only way at the moment is to throw away the spear in his hand and pull out the short knife from his waist to fight closely. But the reason for this competition is to use the spear against the axe and gun, and what is the point of pulling out the short knife?

"It's a tie this time!"

Before the third game was called, Li Meng stood up and said this. After all, his troops were completely defeated by this foreigner in such martial arts performances. Of course, many people know what happened to Li Meng's level.

After hearing Li Meng's order, Denglas inserted the axe and gun in his hand to the ground, stood attentively, put his left hand in front of his chest, and bowed to Li Meng.

"Chen Liu and Wang Hai, Luo Zhuo, and Deng Yangren stay, and the others are disbanded!"

Seeing everyone looking listless, Li Meng smiled and sang to issue this order. The soldiers who were originally sitting in scattered quickly gathered together and returned to their posts under the leadership of the officers. Luo Zhuo lowered his head and placed the spear by the wall and walked to Li Meng, thinking that this time he might be scolded. Deng Yangren looked like he was forced to be calm. Although he smiled on his face, if he didn't tense up, he would be afraid that he would smile.

Wang Hai stared at Denglas viciously, thinking that you are so arrogant. However, Chen Liu saw some tricks and felt that although Luo Zhuo defeated this time, he might be a blessing in disguise.

"You have seen this competition, but you have any ideas."

Li Meng asked these people with a smile. In fact, only Ma Gang could see some tricks among the senior officers under his command. Wang Hai, Chen Liu and others could work hard. If we summarize and improve from actual combat and combine theory with practice, it would be a bit difficult.

When he asked, Wang Hai beside him answered first:

"This is the private fight among the people. The children of Jiaozhou camp lined up and retreated on the battlefield, with spears coming in like forests. No matter which direction they came, they must have been stabbed into sieves all over their bodies. How could they have this situation today?"

There was a bit of unfairness in his words. Looking at Chen Liu, although Luo Zhuo did not speak, his expression on his face was quite in agreement. Deng Yangren lowered his head and took a step back to the back. He also realized that it was indeed anger. Li Meng shook his head. He was also somewhat confident that the soldiers in Jiaozhou Camp were strong and weak.

If it is a weak brigade, from its establishment to now, it has experienced many large and small battles, never failed, and it has also won a great victory. If it is a strong army, the many enemies they faced were all rural bandits, and the most capable time was just a horse bandit from the Peng family. I don’t know what it would be like to face the regular army in Jiaozhou camp. If it were said that he led the cavalry to raid Liu Zeqing’s troops, would the troops arranged in Dongchang Prefecture be truly elite? Li Meng also couldn’t make a clear judgment. If it was said that it was the so-called backbone of the Shandong General, Li Meng would not believe it anyway, so Li Meng was trying every means to make his troops stronger.

After being swept on Li Meng's face, the angry Wang Hai stopped talking immediately. Li Meng's expression became serious and he spoke:

"Why do you have this confidence? Our array is stuck in the battlefield, and the enemy can't rush forward. Can you only stand there and be stabbed by us?"

Although Li Meng asked back, the few people did not have a convincing expression on their faces, but they just didn't argue. Their expressions were taken in Li Meng's eyes. I knew that this kind of competition just now would not explain much. Although he saw a lot of things in the competition, others might not be able to see them, and they could only prove all this with battle.

"Other Deng, tell me what you foreigners look like when they fight."

After hearing Li Meng speak, Denglas first bent down and bowed, then cleared his throat and began to say:

"When the master said, when the villain was a mercenary in the West, he also formed a phalanx to fight. The soldiers holding spears formed a phalanx and attacked in an orderly manner. The musketeers relied on the phalanx of spears, treated him as moving fortifications and castles, and attacked out under their cover."

After saying this, the few people present nodded secretly, and Li Meng was secretly happy. Although the so-called foreigner's fighting method was not reliable just by listening to this lazy foreigner, what the foreigner said was indeed a secret match with the Jiaozhou Camp's combat method.

At the end of the fifteenth century, Western war art gradually surpassed the East. Although it was sad, this was an indisputable fact. What Li Meng did was to follow the advanced as much as possible. His war resources were currently pitiful. If he wanted to do something, he could only use more advanced technologies and tactics.

The other few people's ideas were quite interesting. These officers who grew up in grassroots military households regarded the spear formation tactics of Jiaozhou camp as a golden rule, but on the other hand, they felt that they were unsure because this tactic could not find any similar kind in the Ming army.

There is a foreigner who said that they are practicing this way. Foreigners Deng probably haven't seen the training of Jiaozhou Camp yet. I guess this will not be too much water. Although foreigners are the same as Jiaozhou Camp, they are always the same, and everyone has some foundation in their hearts.

Deng Yangren also knew that his victory just now should have offended someone, so he was very careful and continued to say there:

"But such a phalanx is often penetrated by cavalry wearing armor. In close combat, it is difficult for the spear and the swords of infantry to cause damage to the cavalry wearing armor. At this time, axe and spearmen are needed to hook these cavalry off the horse and then chop them to death with axes on the ground."

Hearing this, the faces of the people present were not very convinced, thinking that what kind of armor it was, the spear could not penetrate it.

After saying this, Deng Yangren retreated aside again, but Li Meng remembered the set of armor sent by Xu Xiaochu, the chief manager of Nanjing Arsenal. The one placed in the room as a decoration. It is now placed in Li Meng's study. At present, he is also a genius general. Putting some armor and weapons in the room is also in line with his identity.

The Western-style plate armor is not too thick because it is used as decoration. However, if the spearman does not exerts full force in this style, the spear tip will definitely slide away after stabbing, and the armor that is actually used in combat must be thicker than this decoration.

Several people were waiting for Li Meng's argument there. Today's competition resulted in the invincible idea of ​​spear supremacy.

"Just with spears alone, close combat is indeed extremely risky. Each team selects 300 veterans to learn the axe and gun technique. Luo Zhuo first learns well with Deng Yangren. Luo Zhuo is the chief and Deng Yangren is the deputy. Teach the army. You can compare with the level of General Qian!"

Li Meng issued an order, and Wang Hai hurriedly recorded that each team selected 300 people. According to the rules of Jiaozhou camp soldiers and salt dings as a team, a total of 30% of elite soldiers must be selected for 7,000 people to learn this axe and gun and do this teaching. That is, if you have the experience of leading troops, you will also be a leader in the future. At this time, you are already at the level of the General Secretary and will not be lower in the future.

Although Luo Zhuo was defeated, he promoted the position of Chief Executive to Chief Executive Qian. He thought he would be punished, but who would have thought he would be promoted. This is really a blessing in disguise. Li Meng also had his own considerations. Luo Zhuo was an elite soldier in Jiaozhou Camp, but he suffered a loss in front of the axe and gun. This way he would not have any resistance and would study and teach with convincing heart.

At this time, Luo Zhuo's face turned red with excitement. Chen Liu pushed him aside before knelt on the ground and kowtowed. As for the foreigner Denglas, he reacted quickly, and was already kneeling there and thanking him.

Jiaozhou Camp has never encountered a real strong army. At this time, it is also a weak person. The way to improve combat power through combat is indeed effective, but Jiaozhou Camp may not bear such losses. Therefore, Li Meng can only improve through learning and training under all circumstances he thinks he is right.

Axe, Xuanhua Axe, or a long halberd from later generations. Li Meng only came into contact with such weapons after seeing Denglas, but this weapon made him feel his vision open, because everything started from scratch. Li Meng had no reference and could only think and study it himself. The infantry spear formation had always felt that there was a hidden danger in Li Meng's heart. After seeing this axe, he finally understood why he was worried.

The Jiaozhou Camp stationed in various parts of Shandong received an order from the Jiaozhou Old Camp in the first month, and an event was launched vigorously, but the name was quite vulgar - a large training and a large competition.

In this first month, Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai's troops left Huguang and camped for hundreds of miles to force Anqing. The "wars reached Huaiyang" were shaking in Nanjing. The civil strife gradually burned to the richest areas of the Ming Dynasty...
