Heroes of Silver Moon

On the last day of March, Simon summoned Harris and Deborah in the simple study room of Alpine Fort.

"I called you two here because I have something to explain, Deborah, the first batch of soldier suits, I remember the Royal Chamber of Commerce has already sent it over!" Simon asked Deborah.

"Yes, I checked and accepted them yesterday. There are a total of 115 sets, and there are a lot of 12 items. The military flags, tents and other items we purchased were also delivered together." Deborah said with a look on his face. replied calmly.

"Yeah." Simon nodded, then looked at Harris again: "I told you about the costume change before!"

Harris nodded, but said with a blank face: "You mentioned it, but you didn't tell me the specific content!"

"Um, is it?" Simon scratched his head embarrassedly.

He obviously wanted the new army to change his costume, but he didn't even communicate well with the chief officer of the new army. This was a work mistake on his side, but who made him too busy recently!

After telling Harris in detail about the uniforms, bedding, and suits that the new army needed, Simon felt that it was not enough, so he simply asked Deborah to bring a whole set of things for Harris to understand in more detail.

Looking through the bedding, clothes, etc. placed in this large wooden box, Harris was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

He thought Simon's so-called unified uniform was just a piece of clothing, but he didn't expect there to be so many things.

Tell Harris the function of everything, and then Simon went on to order: "Tomorrow, let the entire new army change clothes, and let the soldiers familiarize themselves with the function of everything. You take this set back and tell Galken, The squad leaders and platoon leaders like Siegel also talked about it."

Harris nodded with a serious expression, silently keeping this matter in mind.

"Deborah, tomorrow is April, is the first month's salary ready for the new army?" Simon turned to Deborah and asked again.

Deborah nodded and said, "I bought five hundred silver coins, which is definitely enough!"

"Salary is the lifeblood of soldiers, and there must be no problems in this regard."

Simon nodded to Deborah first, then turned to look at Harris: "The third thing, how is the new army training recently?"

Harris looked slightly moved, and said: "After training the queue for a month, the discipline and obedience of the recruits have greatly improved. It can be said that in terms of discipline, there is no army in the entire Silver Moon Kingdom that can match ours. New Army!"

The army in this world is very messy, basically only a group of relatively elite troops will have the concept of discipline and obedience.

But these two things are cultivated little by little during the accumulated military training. There has never been an army that specializes in training discipline like Simon, so Harris dared to make such a guarantee.

"It's just..." Harris didn't say any more in the end, looking a little embarrassed.

"You're welcome, tell me! I'm asking you this matter, isn't it just to solve the problem?" Simon waved his hand nonchalantly.

Harris smiled wryly, and said: "The queue training is really too boring. Apart from practicing the queue every day, it is drilled by the backbone of our officers, or it is long-distance running training for physical fitness, not to mention the recruits, even me. Even the commander feels a little bored!"

Simon nodded unsurprisingly, he knew that such a situation would happen, so these geniuses would rush to make weapons non-stop.

"I understand all these situations. How about it, Deborah, take this suit and explain the situation to people like Siegel. Harris, you go to a place with me." Simon said.

"Okay!" Deborah shrugged helplessly, and ordered someone to move the big wooden box and leave here.

Simon and Harris, on the other hand, came to the back of a small hill not far from the temporary camp.

"Simon, what are we doing here?" Looking at the back of this desolate hillside, Harris couldn't help wondering.

Simon replied with a smile: "This is the place to train recruits how to use weapons!"

Harrison's eyes widened and he said excitedly, "The place where recruits are trained how to use weapons, you mean we don't need them after all, and we're going to practice those **** queues again?"

"Ah." Simon was a little ashamed. He knew that the queue training was really boring, but he didn't expect Harris, the company commander, to have such deep resentment.

"The queue still needs to be trained. Discipline and obedience are the core of the new army. They must not be abandoned, but the focus of training will be placed elsewhere!" Simon said quite seriously.

Seeing Simon being so serious, Harris was taken aback for a moment, and then nodded seriously.

Although he doesn't know why Simon has been emphasizing discipline, he knows that Simon is a very smart person, and he definitely has the intention of doing this, and he just needs to follow orders.

"You just said that this is the place where recruits are trained how to use weapons, but why didn't I see the training ground?" Harris returned to the previous conversation.

Simon looked at him with a smile and said, "The weapons I want to distribute to the new army are not traditional swords, shields, spears or crossbows, but these things!"

Taking out a bolt-action rifle from the space ring, Simon handed it to Harris.

"This is?" Looking at the strange weapon in his hand, Harris couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

The military academy will train these students to use all kinds of weapons, even those extremely unpopular things.

But it was indeed the first time he had seen a weapon like this, which was similar to a hollow wooden stick.

"This thing is called a bolt-action rifle. Of course, you can call it a rifle or musket for short. It is a long-range attack weapon with great power!" Simon said while demonstrating to Harris how to override this rifle.

Mobilize the magic power of the surrounding earth elements, and create a few simple natives on the back of the hillside as targets.

Taking Harris back for about two hundred meters, Simon unfolded another azure blue anti-peeping enchantment, which also has a partial sound insulation function.

Demonstrated to Harris how to operate again, and then Simon handed the rifle to Harris.

"Hold the handguard lightly with your left hand, hold the grip with your right hand, put the **** against the shoulder socket, and then release the safety device, that's right, that's it, then use this concave notch to cover the convex front sight at the front of the barrel, and then Aim where you want to attack, load, pull the trigger, and bang, the enemy will bloom with blood!"

Following Simon's instructions, Harris aimed his rifle at a dummy on the back of the hillside with anticipation and apprehension.

Pulling the trigger, there was a click of the hammer, but there was no such situation as Simon described, so Harris felt a little disappointed.

"Hey, don't be disappointed, it's not loaded yet!" Taking out a magazine with five bullets, Simon handed it to Harris.

"This is?" Looking at the clip in his hand, Harris was full of doubts.

"This is a rifle bullet. Of course, you can also understand it as an arrow. Without this thing, the rifle will basically be like a crossbow without arrows!" Simon said with a smile.

Harrison rolled his eyes and gave me the crossbow but not the arrows. Did you just kidding me?

Simon instructed Harris to unbolt the gun, insert the clip into the corresponding groove, and press down hard, and five rounds of bullets were immediately pressed into the magazine.

At first, the rifle developed by Simon did not have such a thing as a magazine, but after the battle where the slums were besieged by ghouls, Simon realized that the rifle must be equipped with a portable loading tool. The loading speed is really impressive.

Therefore, after some modifications to the magazine of the rifle, the clip that Blue Star could hold five bullets last time was reproduced by Simon.

After the bullet was loaded into the magazine, Harris pushed the rifle into the chamber and aimed it at the dummy again.

There was the previous short shot, but this time Harris was not so nervous, which was also what Simon deliberately did.

After all, for people in this world, the loud sound of a rifle shooting is definitely going to make people panic!

The trigger is pulled.

boom! A flash of fire flashed, the muzzle of the gun was raised slightly, and a wisp of white smoke slowly rose from the muzzle.

The loud noise from his ears made Harris stand still in place for an instant. If he hadn't been in a relaxed state just now, this would definitely startle him.

"What, how?" After recovering, Harris still had a flustered face, and turned to Simon and asked.

Blessed himself with an eagle eye technique, Simon could clearly see that a dummy located more than 200 meters away had a dent the size of a fist, and in the center of the dent was a bullet hole .

"Not bad, you killed an enemy!" Simon said half-jokingly.

"Huh, that's good!" Harris finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked Simon what to do next.

"Empty all the bullets in the rifle. As the chief officer of the new army, you can't let those recruits see that you are not even proficient in using the weapons of the new army. That will damage your prestige!" Simon shrugged shrugged and said.

Harris nodded without saying anything, raised his rifle and continued to aim and shoot.

The five bullets were empty, and then Simon taught Harris how to inspect the gun. After confirming that there were no bullets in the gun, Simon brought Harris to the dummy and asked Harris to carefully observe the masterpiece of the five shots just now.

"If this is on the battlefield, you have already killed five enemies, what do you think of this weapon now?" Simon asked with a smile.

Looking at the dents on the dummy's body and the bullet holes running through the dummy's body, Harrison gasped and said solemnly, "It's scary!"

It is indeed terrifying. Except for professionals whose physique is far superior to ordinary people, the range of regular army long archers is 130 meters to 150 meters, and the range of short archers is 80 meters to 100 meters. As for the range of militia archers Shorter.

Distance is the magic weapon for long-range weapons, and Harris judged from the shooting situation just now that the long-range weapons that Simon will distribute to the new army will have a range of far more than two hundred meters, at least three hundred meters to four hundred meters. between 100 meters.

With such a long range, let alone those ordinary soldiers, even the master-level ranger Kuaijian in the Simon Saint Son Guard Heavenly Group may not be able to shoot arrows so far.

If all soldiers were issued this kind of weapon, Harris couldn't imagine how powerful this army would be.

"What's the matter, do you have any concerns?" Simon asked with a smile when he saw Harris lowered his head and looked solemn, as if thinking of some fatal problem.

"Are you going to issue this long-range weapon to all soldiers?" Harris asked, frowning.

"There are other types of weapons, but they are all long-range weapons that rely on range!" Simon shrugged helplessly. He knew that Harris would definitely find that fatal flaw.

"This kind of weapon is certainly terrifying, but there are no soldiers with melee weapons. If the enemy's cavalry quickly charged in front of us, or the enemy used ambush tactics to directly engage us in melee, wouldn't our soldiers have to wait to die? Harris asked, frowning.

Simon sighed helplessly. The close-combat ability of hot weapons was weak, so why didn't he know this truth, but the time cost of training melee soldiers was much higher than training such hot-weapon soldiers, and he didn't have that condition for the time being.

Taking out a bayonet and placing it at the lower end of the muzzle, Simon said helplessly, "This is a remedy!"

Looking at this long-range weapon transformed into a spear, Harris' eyes suddenly lit up. With the addition of this bayonet, although he still suffers in close combat, it can't be regarded as helpless, maybe it is really feasible!

Then, Simon demonstrated Lanxing's stabbing action and how to handle the rifle to Harris.

"These are some more practical stabbing skills. Of course, I am not a fighter, so there are so many. You and Siegel can ponder more in private!" Simon said in a deep voice.

"No problem, it's on us. By the way, will our next training be rifle shooting and bayonet stabbing?" Harris asked ~www.readwn.com~ No, for the next month, every day In the first half of the day, train queue and basic unarmed combat, and in the second half of the day, practice shooting preview and stabbing practice! "Simon said again in a deep voice.

"Basic hand-to-hand combat? Shooting preview? Stunning practice?" Harrison was a little confused. He couldn't understand Simon's thoughts.

"It's understandable to train basic hand-to-hand combat. Don't you think our soldiers will become helpless after losing their weapons? By the way, you all know how to do hand-to-hand combat!" Simon asked.

Harris nodded: "It's taught in the academy, and almost every family of warrior origin will have its own set of hand-to-hand combat methods!"

Simon nodded: "That's good, just train them according to the set of tactics taught in the academy! As for shooting preview and stabbing practice, this is also easy to understand. Training shooting preview, on the one hand, rifle shooting is more dangerous, and it must be done. Let the group of recruits be familiar with every operation of shooting, on the other hand, because of the scarcity of bullets!"

"Scarce bullets?" Harrison was taken aback for a moment.

"That's right!" Simon said with a painful expression: "Do you think these bullets are sold elsewhere? I made them one by one. In order to equip more than a hundred people in the new army with weapons, I haven't been idle for a month, and I've been rushing to work on these rifles and rifle bullets, and I'm almost exhausted!"

Harrison suddenly looked puzzled, and he said why Simon basically didn't show up at the temporary camp in the past month, and every time he met, he looked tired, so it was because of this!

"The reason for the stabbing practice is also very simple. If you use the traditional method to train the recruits, will you let them use the sharpened long sword or the unsharpened long sword?" Simon looked at Harris meaningfully.
