Cutting corners and cutting corners resulted in the Ming army's muskets, that is, matchlocks, being of poor quality and prone to exploding.
Ming army gunners were afraid of being blinded. First, they deliberately reduced the amount of gunpowder during loading to reduce the risk of exploding the barrel. Second, they fired with their eyes closed.
Therefore, the Ming army, which had a large number of firearms, could not show its advanced nature on the battlefield and was beaten by the slaves!
Flintlock guns are a development trend. Huang Yi attaches great importance to them and gives personal guidance. Unfortunately, there is still no capacity for production.
Because although the fire rate has increased a bit, it is only 50% to 60%, not reaching the 80% or more required by Huang Yi.
The three hundred musketeers in the base area all participated in the battle with Rumi guns produced in the base area.
Huang Yi is a modern man, and of course he knows how to reward diligence and punish laziness, and he cannot eat from the same pot.
No matter what product it is, even a sweater or wool felt, it has a qualified grade, and the quality requirements for weapons are even higher.
All products are produced on a piece-rate basis, and it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people that more work means more.
How to control quality is the top priority!
The quality of firearms must be strictly controlled!
It is essential that people take responsibility.
Every Lumi gun produced in the base has a number, and each number has a quality record.
Abnormal damage can be traced to the manufacturer of each component!
Moreover, the blacksmiths in the base area do not need to cut corners to support themselves and their families.
They rely on producing high-quality products to improve their piece-rate wages, and rely on the ratings of their coworkers and masters on their daily work attitudes to obtain public rental housing allocations.
Therefore, there are no shoddy products in the base area, and military products must be high-quality. The quality of self-produced Lumi guns is higher than that of Fujian and Guangdong products.
It is basically no problem for a war horse to be hit by an arrow from a distance, but it will be a serious problem if it is hit by a Rumi gun.
Rumi's musket volley can be fired when the Mongolian light cavalry approaches eighty paces. At this distance, the light arrows fired from the cavalry bow may not fly, and they will lose their lethality if they fly.
The Mongolian light cavalry withstood a round of volleys and then continued to break through. They would then be heavily killed by arrows and spears.
With the little strength of the Haraqin tribes, it is possible that they will not be able to use a full set of tactics. Maybe a cavalry raid will be all right!
The vast majority of Mongolian tribes do not have artillery. As long as the casualties caused by the scattering of feather arrows can be eliminated, Huang Yi can win with minimal casualties.
How easy is it to gain a foothold in the troubled times of the late Ming Dynasty and create a new world?
Huang Yi needs to train talents to train his subordinates. Every soldier who has been on the battlefield is the seed of a general and may become the manager of Xintiandi.
Doing everything possible to reduce casualties and never engaging in a war of attrition has been the principle for the past two years.
Huang Yi did not forget Hedanbaat'er, and sent Huang Dazhi to deliver 500 stones of wheat and 100 iron pots produced in the base area.
Instead of preparing to join forces with him to attack the Karaqin tribes, they asked him to send troops at the same time to attack the nearest tribes.
There is a big advantage in doing this, as there is no need for disputes over dividing the spoils.
Another advantage is that strong enemies come from two directions, and the thirty-six Kalaqin families are even more difficult to deal with.
Last year, Haraqin served as the leader of the party, and together with the Jiannu, they entered the Gyeonggi area, robbed a large amount of gold and silver treasures, took many Han people hostage, and obtained a lot of armor and weapons.
It's time to settle accounts after the fall, and of course we must rescue as many Han people as possible.
Huang Yi asked Huang Dazhi to send a message to Hedanbaat'er, asking him to protect the Han people as much as possible while looting the Haraqin tribe.
After the war, the base area accepted all Han people, and his work would not be in vain, no matter men, women, old or young. Huang Yi rewarded each Han citizen with fifty kilograms of wheat, with no upper limit.
The rise of Hedanbaat'er was due to his continuous crusade against other tribes. He was extremely warlike.
If Huang Yi didn't send someone to contact him, he was also prepared to contact Huang Yi to send troops together.
Hedan Battelle has been preparing for war for a long time. Like Huang Yi, he has also been conducting personal investigations.
Some time ago, he also sent envoys to deliver gifts to several nearby Karaqin tribes to discuss alliances, in order to paralyze the enemy.
Hedanbaat'er was fully prepared and understood the tribes he was about to attack as if he were reading a novel on the palm of his hand.
I feel that with his strength, he can conquer the tribes he likes.
The bigger reason why I am willing to cooperate with Huang Yi is that I remember the good things in the past and want to get a piece of Huang Yi's pie.
Hedanbaat'er had never been to the base area and did not know that after Huang Yi intercepted and killed the Jin Army's transport team, it gained thousands of people and seized a large amount of armor, weapons and supplies.
What's more, I didn't know that Huang Yi also entered the pass to raid the retreating slaves, and obtained a lot of armors and gold and silver treasures...
In his impression, Huang Yi's strength is still the same as when they broke up last year.
Who would have thought that Huang Yi actually proposed sending troops at the same time to communicate with each other and attack each other!
What's wrong with being able to eat alone? Of course Hedanbaatar was willing to accept Huang Yi's suggestion, and stated that if Huang Yi needed help, he would personally lead his troops there.
Hedanbaat'er's plan to annex several Karaqin tribes was considered deliberate.
Not only did he agree to Huang Yi's simultaneous attack, he also asked Huang Dazhi to write down the five tribes he planned to conquer this year.
His purpose of doing this is self-evident, to avoid duplication of Huang Yi's goals.
After Huang Yi read Huang Dazhi's records, he had a general direction in his mind.
Hedanbaat'er did not rush forward, and the five targets he chose to annex were all small and medium-sized tribes in Karaqin, and they were not far away.
In the past few months, Huang Yi has not been slacking off for a day, patrolling the territory and spying on the Haraqin tribe near the base area.
Hedanbaatar has identified his prey, and Huang Yi is of course happy to see it happen.
But he had a different idea and believed that the first shot must be fast and hard! He also had to kill a big tribe with the leader level cleanly.
Therefore, Huang Yi's first target was the tribe with the largest population of cattle and sheep among the neighbors to the east.
This tribe is one of the thirty-six families of Karaqin. The leader is named Hegelbu. He has no less than 900 string masters under his command, more than 500 warriors who are skilled in bows and horses, and a total population of more than 3,000.
At the end of October last year, Hegelb organized more than 300 young and middle-aged knights to follow the Jian slaves into the pass, burn, kill and loot, and they are still enjoying the fruits of plundering from the Ming Dynasty.
Hegelb was the leader, the leader of several allied tribes, and had more than two hundred armored knights. He never expected to become the first target of the attack.
The autumn air is crisp and the wind is light and the clouds are clear. Huang Yi, who is settling scores after the fall, is not a moral gentleman. He goes to war without declaring it, he launches a surprise attack, and he wants to kill people to establish his authority.
In order to ensure surprise, Huang Yi personally participated in shielding the battlefield.
He climbed high and used telescopes to observe, and sent cavalry to ambush and set up nets, leaving no survivors in his sight.
Don't get me wrong, we are not going to kill all the herders we find.
The policy of surrendering and avoiding death was still implemented, and methods were adopted to control the children and coerce young and middle-aged knights to participate in the battle.
