Great name!

Chapter 22 Two kinds of three-stage attack

Seeing Asha burst into tears and smiling, Nobuhu could eat with peace of mind. He then asked: "Are Jiro and Axiang okay? I'm busy training the iron artillery team these days, and the whole family depends on you."

Axia replied: "Jiro and Axiang are both sensible. Jiro is practicing martial arts diligently every day. He has completed the mathematics and Chinese you asked him to learn. After my husband has finished eating, I will go and finish them." I’ll show you my homework.”

Nobutora nodded and said: "I believe you will supervise Kojiro. In addition, Axiang's studies must not fall behind."

A-Xia nodded and said: "Yeah, A-Xiang will also study after becoming a female celebrity, and the progress is a little slower than Jiro."

Nobutora smiled softly and said, "Axiang is still young, so it's normal to learn slowly."

Then Axia talked about the situation of his brother Maori Shengqing. His foot injury is almost healed. He has gone to the city to go on duty in the past few days. Because of Nobutora, Maori Shengqing's situation is not very good. He is purely implicated. .

But Maori Shengqing is not a soft persimmon. Someone taunted him in front of him and was almost beaten by him. Moreover, the Maori family's background is not small, and there are very few people who dare to show off.

Xinhu didn't want to continue talking about this matter. He didn't want Axia to worry, so he said to her: "Look at which family has a suitable girl, and help my brother arrange it. It's time for my brother to get married."

Axia smiled, nodded and said, "I remember it."

Nobuhu also laughed and said, "Brother will definitely understand our painstaking efforts."

After chatting with Axia, Xinhu's mood improved a lot, and his heart was once again full of fighting spirit.

Early the next morning, Nobuhu came to the training ground to start a new day of training. Although the content of daily training was the same, the changes in the army were changing with each passing day.

After nearly a month of training, the hundred-man team that looked a little lazy before has become an elite team.

Nobunaga's eyes lit up when he saw his iron artillery team again.

However, he did not come here today to check the effectiveness of the training. The two hundred newly purchased iron cannons have been delivered to Naguye Castle.

It was originally expected to cost 12,000 kan Yongle money, but Hirate Hisahide, who was in charge of the negotiation, got a discount and in the end only spent 10,800 kan, saving the Oda family 1,200 kan.

This was mainly because Tsuda Kanmono gave a discount to the Oda family for buying in large quantities.

After all, iron cannons were introduced in 1543, and the Tanegashima iron cannon was born in 1544. Until now, only eight years have passed, and not many samurai have realized the power of iron cannons.

Oda Nobunaga counts as one.

When Nobutora saw Nobunaga appear at the training ground, he immediately handed over the team training to his deputy and ran to Nobunaga to salute.

Nobunaga held Nobutora's shoulders, patted his chest hard and said: "Well done, Nobutora, the newly purchased iron cannons have arrived. I will give you enough manpower within two days, and we must train them out!" "

Xinhu felt that now was a good opportunity, and he immediately said: "Master, I just have a few ideas to report to you."

Nobunaga was in a very happy mood. He waved his hand and said, "You tell me and I'll listen."

Xinhuhui reported: "My lord, for the battle of the iron artillery team, I have thought of two conventional tactics. One is better than field battles, and the other is better than defending the city."

"Oh? Tell me."

Oda Nobunaga became interested and asked immediately. Nobutora took out a pile of paper from his arms, with the stick figure he drew on it. He took out the paper and explained: "These two tactics are called three-stage attack. The first one is the iron artillery team deploying a square formation. Divided into three horizontal lines.

When the battle is about to begin, the iron artillery team takes the lead in forming a formation, and lays out shields in front of the iron artillery team to guard against the enemy's arrows. The iron artillery team behind the shield fires in three bursts. This is a three-stage attack that can be formed in a short time. Lethality. "

Hearing this, Oda Nobunaga clapped his hands and said: "Miao, your tactics are very clever. You make full use of the iron cannon. It is more efficient than my three-stage attack."

Of course Nobutora knew about Oda Nobunaga's three-stage shooting, which means one person shoots, and the other two are responsible for loading ammunition, igniting the rope, etc.

Although this operation shortens the shooting efficiency, in fact, it is very dangerous to face the enemy's sudden formation.

The three-stage attack proposed by Nobuhu was the Ming army's tactic of using firecrackers, which could form intensive firepower in a short period of time to deal with the northern cavalry.

And Nobutora wants to point out that what is good at defense is Oda Nobunaga's three-part attack. With the ability to protect, Oda Nobunaga's three-part attack can form a continuous attack, which is enough to demoralize the enemy and cause damage to the attacking enemy. Great damage.

Nobutora immediately suggested that Nobunaga's three-stage strike was more suitable for defense, but Nobunaga did not directly admit it. He just said: "Let's wait until you show the effect."

Nobutora did not insist on this matter. He just expressed his thoughts. The one who made the decision was naturally the Lord Oda Nobunaga.

He stopped discussing the matter and turned to the issue of ammunition.

Nobuhu said: "Master, I think the issue of ammunition quantity is very important.

Even in daily training, there are still people who are unable to master the dosage of medicine, which leads to some taking too much and others taking too little.

I think the ammunition should be packed in oil paper and the dosage should be fixed, so that even if they go to the battlefield, the Ashigaru people will not take the wrong dosage due to nervousness. "

When Oda Nobunaga heard this, he praised it again: "This is indeed very important. I will immediately arrange for the best people to do this. Is there anything else?"

Nobuhu took out another piece of paper and said: "Master, this gunpowder will precipitate if left for a long time, and then we will have to prepare the gunpowder again, which is a very troublesome thing.

I think we should add some binders, such as using chicken mucus to soak the gunpowder, and then drying it in the sun to form particles, so that there will be no precipitation and separation of the gunpowder materials. "

Oda Nobunaga did encounter the situation mentioned by Nobutora. The gunpowder would become damp after being left for a long time, and it would separate into layers and need to be readjusted. The granular black gunpowder mentioned by Nobutora perfectly solved this problem.

However, the last two issues raised by Xinhu once again increased investment.

It costs money to make the small bamboo tubes needed to load fixed bullets, and it also has to be equipped with an armed belt to hold the ammunition. In addition, chickens are needed to make granular gunpowder, which is another expense.

But Oda Nobunaga didn't care about this. With a wave of his hand, he asked people to get money from Hirate Masahide to solve the problem.

For Nobunaga, as long as it is a problem that can be solved with money, it will be solved with money immediately, but he never cares how much money he spends.

Hirate Masahide was very distressed by Oda Nobunaga's lavish spending. In his opinion, the money should be saved so that when a major war comes, the money can be used to recruit troops or to escape.

It's just that Oda Nobunaga is not an ordinary person, and Masahide Hirate's hopes were dashed.
