"There are also barbarians in the Japanese pirates?"

Wu Zhankui was a little surprised, "Didn't it mean they were all Japanese and Han pirates?"

At this time, for the people, the pirates and pirates from the sea were all Japanese pirates, and they could not tell the true elements of the people. However, for the people in the army, the news from all aspects came more accurately, so whether it was Zhang Qing, Wu Zhankui, or Wei Meng, they actually knew who the so-called Japanese pirates were mainly.

In fact, the pirates in the Ming Dynasty were originally dominated by Zhang Shicheng's remnants, and there were some Japanese pirates, so most of the so-called Japanese pirates were actually Han people, and a few were Japanese pirates.

But today, Wu Zhankui heard that there were even barbarians among the Japanese pirates, which was a bit beyond his expectations.

"The barbarians are good at wealth and participation in Japanese pirates is not a strange thing, they are all barbarians overseas and have not received Confucian education."

Zhang Qing said disapprovingly, but his idea was also realistic.

"By the way, nephew, if you pay a batch of this bird gun to you, how much will your hundred-household combat power be improved?"

Zhang Qing said this to Wei Meng next, because only the Bengshan Hundred Houses of Jiujiang Guard took away ten bird guns, and this was decided by the people from the Ministry of War before allocating these firearms.

"Uncle Shi, I'm not very clear about this bird gun. I only have two incompetent sons in my family to mess with. I heard that this bird gun is really good. I think it should be successful."

Wei Meng gave his own answer after thinking for a while.

"That's how it is."

Zhang Qing, who was behind the desk, frowned his white eyebrows slightly, "Then you should make a plan as soon as possible. If it is feasible, I will send out the batch of bird guns in the warehouse after the New Year."

"Father-in-law, how many bird guns are there?"

Wu Zhankui asked at this time.

"Because it was just a trial assembly, there were only two hundred shots, and ten of them had been allocated to you, so the military weapon bureau handed over only one hundred and ninety bird guns."

Zhang Qing said, pondering here, "After coming back, I sent it directly into the warehouse, and I didn't give it.

If it is really easy to use, then I will ask Shigui to take the bird gun away first after two days so that others will not be concerned about it.

In addition, you two can control the hundred households you should practice hard after a year, and be well prepared for everything, and don’t be lucky.

Even if the Northern Expedition is finally cancelled, you must be prepared as long as you should.

This time, the Weili family will reorganize ten hundred households for training, and the food and salary will be allocated at 70% of the time, so don’t worry about logistics and food.”

"Seventy percent of the food and salary, there's no problem."

Zhang Shigui asked inadvertently on the way to send Wu Zhankui and Wei Meng out of the study and heading to their yard.

Hearing this, Wu Zhankui and Wei Meng felt a sudden heart. Most of the good mood that had been told before was to give 70% of the food and salary disappeared instantly.

The three of them stopped, Wu Zhankui looked at Wei Meng, and as for the troops, he was separated by a thousand households, so he had nothing to say at this time.

"For those soldiers, if you have a salary of 30% or 40% of the money, your family can live a life."

After a moment of hesitation, Wei Meng said that in fact, the food and wages he paid were less than 30% of the standard soldiers' income, but the military households in the fort could survive.

"That's how it is."

Zhang Shigui got the answer, continued to walk and took Wu Zhankui and Wei Meng to the courtyard, but after passing through a corridor, his steps were slightly slower. He waited for Wu Zhankui and Wei Meng to get closer and said, "Then let's send 40% of the money, and we will be the three of us left."

Speaking of this, Zhang Shigui said to Wu Zhankui again: "You are responsible for this matter. I will say hello to the guards. Let Lao Wei do the military training."

"Brother-in-law, what happened to the ten hundred-hundred-household offices?"

Wu Zhankui nodded and asked while asking.

"Those who knew that they might have to go to the north this year were scared to death, so after they discussed, they said that they would train two hundred households in each of five thousand households as the main combat soldiers to go to this expedition.

The Hundred Houses on Lao Wei's side happened to be ready-made. You either have a Hundred House with a close friend, but only two of them are the main combat soldiers of your Right Army Thousand Houses."

Zhang Shigui walked forward slowly and said, "There is also the matter of bird guns. You can discuss it when you go back. If you don't say that Wencai is very familiar with bird guns, listen to their meanings more. We will discuss it tomorrow. Today is too late."

Zhang Shigui sent them back to the small courtyard where he lived and went back to his own courtyard.

This small courtyard is nominally a yard, but in fact it is divided into the east courtyard and the west courtyard. It is a layout of two small cross courtyards. The Wu family and the Wei family have their own small courtyards, which were also prepared by the Zhang family for their relatives and friends. They are all equipped with all the items and are also good.

However, Wu Zhankui and Wei Mengke did not go back to the house to rest. Although they rushed to Jiujiang from Zepeng early this morning and were struggling to ride, they still found an empty house and asked their servants to call the brothers Wei Wencai and Wei Guangde over. Wu Dong was also called to listen to it. After all, they would be exposed to such military affairs sooner or later.

Fortunately, several people didn't sleep and soon arrived at the empty house.

"Don't think about the mother-in-law guns. Those guns are expensive. Only Jingying and border towns can be equipped. Our Jiujiang Guards cannot get the guns."

After seeing that everyone arrived, Wu Zhankui directly talked about the mother-child cannon that he had discussed before.

When Wei Guangde and others heard that they were only equipped with Jingying and Border Town, they knew it. When they heard his father talk about this kind of artillery, the little guys thought that this artillery was powerful and could be fired continuously with medicine, but it was much stronger than the current firearms.

"That cannon is actually called the Folang machine cannon. It was invented by the barbarians. The number of weapons and weapons bureaus in the Ming Dynasty is still limited."

Wu Zhankui continued.

"Why did my uncle ask us to come? Is there any other errand?"

Wei Guangde was puzzled, since he couldn't do it, he couldn't do it, so why would he ask them to do it?

When I was in Zepeng, I said it all night, but in the end he remembered the mother-child cannon mentioned by my father before, and said that the cannon fired very quickly, so he made such a suggestion.

Now that he has been rejected, he has no other way.

"Guangde, do you think that bird gun can restrain the Tartar cavalry?"

At this time, Dad Wei asked.

"Bird gun? Impossible."

Wei Guangde shook his head and said without thinking when he heard his father ask him.

Just kidding, although I have never been a soldier, there are many information explosions in later generations, and I have seen many things on TV or the Internet, and I have also known a lot of news.
